Exporting to swf file targeted to Flash Player version 9

I am trying to create a swf file targetted to version 9 of Flash Player, but when I export to the swf format from InDesign CS5, there doesn't seem to be an option to change the targeted version, and I get files targetted to version 10 instead.
I need to be able to target to version 9 to run in the zmags environment.
Does amyone know if there is there any way to do this from InDesign?
Thanks!

Thank you kindly for your answer. I knew it was possible to do in Flash and I'm finishing it this time around using Flash Professional, but my client owns only InDesign at this point. I was hoping to discover how to do it with software she already has.
If it's the case that there's no way to do from InDesign alone, then that would be the answer. Before I share that unhappy news with her, though, I wanted to be certain there was no way to do it from within InDesign.
Do you know - is that definitely the case, then?
(um.... I just noticed you're a 'community professional' so I guess that would be the case then?
A 'yes' will suffice and I'll go away quietly)

SWF File in Adobe Flash Player

I've created a flash animation (the backgroung is moving horizontally and vertically according to the movement of the mouse), the problem is that when I open my SWF file in Adobe Flash Player 10.0 the whole animation is shaking. (In Adobe Flash in preview mode it looks fine)
Any ideas how to fix this ?

Hi,
When you mean by shaking does it mean that the animation does not run smooth or it actually cuts frames? You might want to check if the same thing happens to the animation if you export it as an html(File--> Preview--> HTML). If that is happening it can be three things:
Video Card Driver problem: maybe update your video card drivers or something might be going on with the video rendering software
Computer Speed(which I really don't think)
Flash Driver problems: try uninstalling the flash player program and installing the latest version(I also don't think you will have problems there)
Hope this helps you,

Help for PowerPoint 2007 crash when running embedded SWF file with latest Flash Player?

I have developed in Xcelsius 2008 SP4 a dashboard with only Excel as the source. I output to PowerPoint and then save it as a PowerPoint 2003 PPS file. On more than a few machines that have PowerPoint 2007, PowerPoint crashes when I attempt to run the presentation. This happens only with later versions of Flash Player. I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling the latest Flash Player but it still crashes. However, when I revert back to Flash Player 10.1.159..., in PP 2007 the presentation runs perfectly.
With regard to the error I receive in PowerPoint 2007, it is as follows:
Error Signature:
AppName: powerpnt.exe AppVer: 12.0.6500.5000 AppStamp:49a68f9d
ModName: flash10u.ocx ModVer: 10.3.181.34 ModStamp:4e011a1d
fDebug: 0 Offset: 003a893c
Of note is that this behavior does not happen in PowerPoint 2003 nor does it happen when the file is saved as a SWF and launched directly in the browser on the problem machines.
I have to assume that this has happened to others so any help you could provide would be VERY appreciated.
Thank you

Hello,
on the first glance I see these: data="file:///Macintosh HD/Users/user/Documents/Website/Working.swf", what means the path to your swf file is pointing to your local hard drive which nobody can see except you. Please replace all thes pathes with the correct ones and load up your file(s) again.
If the problem remains, please send a link to your website in question, no matter how it looks like..

Flash Player version 10 results bad timing of TurboDemo generatred swf file

Our flash educational presentations are working bad in the
latest Flash Player version (10). We made them in TurboDemo, and
generated flash file, which could be run from our website. However
with new flash player the preset timing of page turning does not
work. It waits much longer, than the programmed timing. In earlier
versions everything worked well, but know it's a disaster, which
makes our numerous educational presentation un-enjoyable. The
videos are just waiting for nothing for long seconds from page to
page, which ruins the smooth flow of the presentation.
Can anybody help how can we fix this issue???
Andras

I doubt there's anything we can do on our side. You'll need
to contact TurboDemo so they can test with their original source
code and try to find the cause.

In the meantime you'll probably need to recommend your users
revert to Flash Player 9.

SWF file only opens in Player, not Application

I am new to Flash and I am working on updating a website that was created by co-workers in 2009. I was not here when it was created and those people are no longer here to help me out. The website is www.vintageresidential.com. I am simply trying to update a few of the photos in the flash file that plays on a few of the pages. We recently upgraded from CS2 to CS5.5 and I am working on a PC. When I try to open the SWF file in the Flash Application, it only lets me play it through the player and I'm not granted access to any of the editing tools(see image). I recently found a photoshop file where it looks like they created the animation, but I'm confused how they saved it as an SWF file.

An .swf is a compiled Flash flash file. It can't be opened in Flash. There are a number of Flash decompilers available that you can use to get into that file if you really need to. Do you not have the original .fla file that was used to create the .swf?
There is no direct way to export from Photoshop to a Flash .swf. You can import Photoshop layers into a Flash movie, though I don't think that you could do that in Flash CS2.

Hi I have a swf file (let say child.swf).
Once It loaded I want to know parent swf was published on flash player 9 or flash player 10. How to find that?
Question:
1)parent.swf loades child.swf
2)after child.swf loaded --> need to check parent.swf is published on flash player 9 or 10.
3)if parent.swf published on flash player 9 then child.swf will run a function
4)if parent.swf published on flash player 10 then child.swf will run some other function.
On the above for the based on the 2nd point question 3 or 4 will happen.
On the above case I have only one parent... In some other case I may have multiple parents. My question to how to detect top most player's published version?
Note:
Capabilities.version returns current flash player version which is installed on browser (it is not help my question)
The following link has infomation about As version used on the swf (it is not help my qeuestion)

How can I import a .swf file in Adobe Flash CS4?

Hi,
How can I import a .swf file in Adobe Flash CS4?
Thanks.

you can use file/import but that would be a mistake.
you should "load" your swf, not import it.
if you want to load it and need help, are you using as2 or as3?

Issue on Dashboard 4.1 Export as .SWF file while retrieving more than 5000 rows.

Hi Experts,
    We have a BO Dashboard (version 4.1) that displays the treasury information on cash flows across various countries and regions.
     The dashboard is built on Universe and has large number of components (like filter, aggregation, glow region) with some third party Centigon add on for Google Maps. - GMaps Plugin for SAP BusinessObjects Dashboards provides an interactive map design solution for enterprise dashboards components).
     When trying to add more source content to the existing dashboard (and exceeding more than 5000 rows ) and trying to export the dashboard as .SWF file , we are getting a run-time error as below.
     But when we minimize the number of rows manually in data mapping (<=4500 rows) we are able to export the .SWF file.
      Seriously couldn't arrive at any conclusion or it is a tool limitation.
     Please help us in this issue.
Regards,
Prasana Ravichandran

I partially agree with you, When I say condition I was talking about LOAD when clause in ACCESS PARAMETERS not where condition of select clause
When you use load condition with a byte range is checked before parsing the row , So to skip a row you can use something like this (seee example below)
CREATE TABLE ext_employees
(employee_id NUMBER(4),
first_name VARCHAR2(20),
last_name VARCHAR2(25),
job_id VARCHAR2(10),
manager_id NUMBER(4),
salary NUMBER(8,2),
commission_pct NUMBER(2,2),
department_id NUMBER(4),
email VARCHAR2(25)
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
DEFAULT DIRECTORY ext_dir1
ACCESS PARAMETERS
records delimited by newline
LOAD WHEN ( 1:5) != '*****'
badfile ext_bad_dir:'empxt%a_%p.bad'
logfile ext_log_dir:'empxt%a_%p.log'
fields terminated by ','
missing field values are null
( employee_id, first_name, last_name, job_id, manager_id,
salary, commission_pct, department_id, email
LOCATION ('empext.dat')
REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED
This may solve his problem

Does the last flash player version works correctly for Adobe portofolio file?

I have a problem with some Adobe Acrobat portofolio files, they were created some months ago with Acrobat X pro version but right now can not be opened.
The first message that appears is:
"To view the Flash technology content in this PDF file, please install this version of Flash Player that supports Adobe Reader and Acrobat"
When I select the option for more info appears:
Online content cannot be displayed.
I installed the most recently Flash player version but the problem is the same
Actual Flash player installed version: 11.7.700.202
OS: Windows XP 32 bits
Browser : Internet Explorer version 8.0.6001
Somebody have any idea?
Please let me know, these files are really important for my work.

There is a separate installer for using Flash with Acrobat.

Opening FLV files using Adobe Flash Player 10.3.181.23

Hello
I have with me a few FLV files from YouTube - so i had searched that Flash Players could open such files.
I'd like to enquire if this version of Flash Player 10.3.181.23 does work? Are there other steps i have to undertake before opening these FLV files?
My computer has Windows XP; and meets the system requirements for using Flash Players.
Looking forward to your further guidance in this forum.
Kind Regards.

You mean local FLV files?
No, Flash Player cannot play them, even the standalone player. You need Adobe Media Player to play these.
Unfortunately AMP is no longer available for download from the Adobe site; you will have to download it from some 3rd-party download site.

Now according to [this website|http://forums.macosxhints.com/showthread.php?t=83434] that discusses the appearance of :
The "lego" means that you either are missing the Quicktime plugin for that image or have an outdated/wrong plugin installed. Check the folder /Library/Quicktime and re-install any plugins you have there to be sure you're using the Intel version.

If the files are already there, they'll never be overwritten when you visit a
new site, would they ? That's how the cache works :-)
