Error opening fla file.

Hi,
I am a relative newcomer to the world of Flash, so I apologize if this issue is a bit mindless for the veterans.
I am working with Flash CS6 on a Macbook Pro and recently encountered a problem when trying to open a file. An error message pops up, saying 'there was an error opening the file...'. No further details are available.
Looking at the file information, there is still data there, as the size is about 300MB.
I've tried some amateur sleuthing online for a solution, mostly involving changing the .fla extentsion to .rar and repairing the file that way, but nothing I have tried has resolved the issue.
Am I essentially out of luck, or is there a reliable solution for this kind of problem?
Thanks for any help!

Wow, thanks for such a quick reply, kglad.
I had actually previously zipped and unzipped the file and ended up with a folder full of stuff that I didn't know what to do with. Again, this is where my amateur understanding comes into play.
In the unzipped folder, there are 'bin', 'library' and 'meta-inf' folders, as well as a 'DOMDocument.xml' file, a 'MobileSettings.xml' file, a 'PublishSettings.xml' file and finally a file called 'mimetype'.
Should I be encouraged by this?
I'm pretty clueless at this point about how I might proceed from here. I see that the 'library' folder contains all the sound files for the project (it's a soundboard), but is there a way to go from this point to recovering the project as it was before this issue came up? Or am I stuck with starting the project all over gain?
Thanks again for the help!

Error opening url 'file: What does it mean?

When I test some of my as3 movies a new window opens and I can test the file. Yet when I test other movies I get an (error opening url 'file message.) What causes that? It seems to me that if a movie plays it should also test in a new window.

It doesn' work. I only got the one file open. The swf file won't open at
all. The fla file won't test. But when I debug the fla file the flash player
debugger opens the movie in a new window and I get this message in the
output window: "Attempting to launch and connect to Player using URL
/Users/schweideltyson/Desktop/Circle.swf"
SWF Users:schweideltyson:Desktop:Circle.swf - 2887 bytes after
decompression
Could it be my flash player is not working properly? I wish I knew.

Having trouble opening .fla files in Flash MX

Hi,
Can anyone help me?
I'm using Flash MX, and when I get sent .fla files to edit I
get a "Unexpected file format" error or a "An unknow error has
occured while accessing ..<location of file.fla>"
Is this because I'm trying to edit/open .fla files that
aren't compatible with Flash MX?? Why is this the case?
If someone could shed some light on this that would be great
as all .fla's recently have been causging me problems.
Cheers.

sound like you try to opne flashMX2004 or flash8 foles in MX.
that wount work. An upgrade would help, or asking your source for
those flas to save then in MX format - which is not possible in
Flash 8 though.

Error opening jar file

I'm using WLS 5.1 SP8 on NT 4.0 and trying to setup a cluster. The cluster
          starts fine except when I try to deploy a session bean that is marked as
          clustered. I get an error about reading a jar file
          (D:/weblogic/mycluster/server196/tmp_deployments/ejbjar1559.jar) that WLS
          created when the server started. Every server is getting this error and I
          tried setting up the same paths (D:\weblogic) but it doesn't matter. Any
          ideas?

How can I use my orapwmydb file?

Hi Marco,
as far as I know, you have to use the REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE = SHARED option in your init...ora file.
In this case you have one password file for one or more databases. It can only have the entries for SYS and INTERAL.
I'm sorry to cannot answer your question of having different password files for different databases %-)

Error opening preferences file

When opening a pdf document in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro, saved either locally or on the network, I receive the message "Error opening preferences file The file may be read-only, or another user may have it open. Please save the document with a different name or in a different folder." I've tried saving this file with a different name and I still receive this error. If I choose to open this document with Adobe Reader 9, I have no issues. Why would I be having this issue with Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro?

What release of System Update are you trying to install? What OS are you using ie, win 7, 8, 8.1?
Did you really mean IMPORT failed (not export)?
Are your running the install . exec from a Network drive?
Please look in C:\users\*your id*\appdata\local\temp for the msi install log and post 50 lines of the log around where the error occurred.

Open dataset fails...says "error opening input file"

Hi,
I am trying to open a file in my BDC program and get the following error "error opening input file". Its a text file with continuous data. No delimiters and hence character count will be used to parse the data.
I am using the following statement to open it..
OPEN DATASET p_file FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
but sy-subrc is set to 8 !!
what could be the problem ??
thanks

This is pretty confusing !!I would explain to you my exact issue !!
I have a program in which there is no GUI_UPLOAD call but just a direct open dataset statement !!
This program runs fine for my collegue who has the file in a server (not the application server). She gives the full path name as
servername\foldername\filename.
I tried doing the same but as I did not have access to that server, it failed. So I received that file from her and stored it in my local system. So on program execution, i gave the path as c:\filename and I got the error message "Error opening the file"
Find below some code extracts..
PARAMETERS : p_sname TYPE d0100_mapn ,
             p_file(136) TYPE c ,
FORM open_file .
*open file in textmode
OPEN DATASET p_file FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
    DO.
    Read the file data and tranfer to workarea to internal table
      READ DATASET p_file INTO x_legacy_rec.
Please help in debugging this issue !!
thanks

I don't know what the probblem is..
Can anyone help me? pls!!!

Use the trace function to track down what values you are trying to process. The error is telling you it cannot find the file for the path specified, and the path that it is identifying seems to be showing that there is a problem not only with the path (appears to have several blanks spaces) but also the file name.
Try tracing the url value before it gets sent to the loading line, as in... trace(url) and see what it shows.
