FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on Flash Professional forums?

When asking a question on the Flash Professional user-to-user forums, you can make it easier by proactively providing answers to the following questions:
Have you installed the recent updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
Please give us more information about your Creative environment:
What version of Flash Professional are you using? And, if applicable, include the minor version number (e.g., Flash Professional CS5.5 with the 10.5.1 update).
What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac". Also, see this page to quickly check if your OS is supported for the version of Flash Professional you are using.
Tell us about your computer hardware. Include CPU type and number of processor cores, amount of RAM installed, GPU, number of disk drives, and how any external drives are connected.
If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
If you encountered a crash, please upload Flash Professional log files to any free file sharing sites and post a link. Depending on the OS you are using, you will find the crash logs at:
Win: Program Files\Common files\Adobe\Installers or \Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\ApplicationData\Adobe\AAMUpdater\1.0\
Mac: /Library/Logs/Adobe/Installers or ~/ Library/ApplicationSupport/Adobe/AAMUpdater/1.0/
Did you encounter the issue in spite of recreating Flash Professional preferences?
What were you doing when the problem occurred?
Has this ever worked before?
What other software are you running on the system?
Also, do check the Flash Professional FAQs list and also do a quick Flash Professional Community Help search to see if your question has been addressed already.
Adding screenshots and FLAs to your discussions is highly useful and will help fetch an answer faster and easier.

I second that. I would also suggest the list of things the user should at least supply is supplemented with the client mode; HI (High Interactivity) or SI (Standard Interactivity).

    Before attempting any Major Upgrade... get yourself an External Hard Drive... and create a Bootable Clone Backup of your current Hard Drive...
    By far the easiest way to make such a Backup, is to use something like

    or CCC  http://www.bombich.com/
    That way, should anything untoward happen during the Upgrade,

  • HT5622 What information should I use when asked for "Label" when attempting to order an iphoto book?

    When attempting to purchase an iphoto book, I am unable to.  It tells me that the Label name is already being used.  I've used my name, and don't know what else I am supposed to do.  I don't want to lose the work I did to create the book, but Apple won't allow me to get to Step 3 in my purchase attempt.

  • What impact should I see when my Ipad mini is associated to my Wife's Apple ID

    I have a 64gb Ipad mini
    My wife has a 16gb Ipad with retina
    Both me and my wife have purchased tv shows in iTunes using my Ipad mini and have both downloaded content to that device.
    My Ipad mini shows in my wife's iTunes account as being associated with her Apple ID.
    To date, I can't see that I have been impacted by that association because we can both log in and out of iTunes on that device, download TV series and play those shows.  With my device being associated with my Wife's Apple ID, what impact should it have on me?
    I've been corresponding with Apple for over two weeks and am still no closer being given an answer that makes any sense   I just seems that I am being given stock answers to another question
    I have been given links to many help articles that have been directly and indirectly relevant to my query, but they don't answer my question.  I've also read through the community support forum, but there's nothing that I can find that relates to my question.
    We are both new to Apple products, iTunes is new territory for us.  I simply want to understand whether or not our shared use of my Ipad mini will create a problem that locks either one of us out of certain content.  We'd rather know this up front so that we make an informed choice of whether to continue purchasing hard copies or start using iTunes for purchasing TV shows.
    Additional information:
    We have Apple TV (3rd gen)
    Thanks in advance,
    John

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4743
    I found this article for you on the iTunes support website at:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ww

    Hi Japple,
    A long time ago, which iTunes account you used to make purchases was important due to the DRM that Apple used at the time.  Now that most music on the iTunes Store is DRM-free the distinction of which account was used to purchase the music is irrelevant.  Songs can be copied freely to as many computers and devices that you own.
    Movies and TV shows, however, are not all DRM free.  They have Apple's FairPlay DRM embedded.  What does this mean for you?  Probably not much.  You can authorize up to five computers to play a video file downloaded from either of your iTunes accounts.  iTunes itself keeps track of the associations and, if you change devices in the future, it's very easy to dissociate your accounts in the iTunes Store. 
    Let me give you an example of how this works.  Let's say my wife buys a CD and a movie from iTunes and I want it on my computer in my library too.  First thing I need to do is copy the files to my machine and add them to my iTunes library (File --> Add to Library, I believe).  When I try to play the music, they'll work immediately, no more configuration required.  When I try to play the movie, however, iTunes will ask me to associate my computer with my wife's Apple ID (if I haven't already done so in the past).  To associate my computer, all I need to do is enter her Apple ID and password into the dialog box that pops up and I'm good to go.  Now I can play that file in my iTunes on my computer without any trouble.  I can also download it to my iOS devices (iPad, iPod, iPhone) seamlessly.
    An Apple TV is different than the other iOS devices in that its primary purpose is to stream files from computers, other iOS devices, or the iTunes Store directly.  The Apple ID that you associate with your Apple TV is only relevant to the purchases you make from the iTunes Store and if you turn on Home Sharing.  But both you and your wife can stream files to your Apple TV from your iOS devices.  Make sure that AirPlay is enabled on your Apple TV and your iPads. Then select the Apple TV you want to stream to from your iPad and you should be good to go.
    My wife and I have a similar environment to the one you describe and have no trouble viewing or using content on any of our devices (including computers).
    Best of luck!

  • What information should be added to a workspace file in teststand 3

    I have recently upgraded from Teststand 2 to version 3. I am trying to distribute a runtime sequence and am having some difficulty with the new Teststand 3 deployment utility. Can anyone tell me exactly what i should be putting into the workspace file in order to create a working runtime sequence?
    Cheers,
    Dave

    The first thing to do is to create a new workspace, then right click on the workspace name, then select Add Project to Workspace. Right click on the new project name and select Add Files to Project. Here you can add your main sequence, all subsequences, your VIs, DLLs, any special files that you would want to distribute with your install package. I usually create an LLB file that contains all VIs that I have created. All sub-vi's that are called by my VIs (like GPIB functions, low level file functions, etc) are automatically included in the package. You can include special files like text files or ini files that your program will use. Add them all to the project. Save the workspace file. When you build the project using Deploy TestStand System, make sure you ch
    eck the box next to Deploy Files from TestStand Workspace File, and navigate to the workspace you just created.

  • What exception should I use when commit work fails ?

    hi all:
        I create a class with methods to insert , modify and delete trasaction data, 
    when commit work fails, I want to throw an exception, what exception should I use
    for this case?

    In general, you should do your commit using CALL FUNCTION IN UPDATE TASK. As this runs in a different process, you will never be able to catch an exception in your main task, even if you throw one in the Open SQL code. What you should do is carefully validate your data before posting it to the database, so that commit cannot fail for data integrity reasons. If it fails for technical reasons (DB down etc.) there is nothing that your code could do about it anyway, so in this case even getting an exception would be no use. What exactly is it you are trying to accomplish?

  • What settings should i use when creating a wallet???

    Dear sirs...
    i configured the http server to use ssl. using the default wallet it works fine. now i created a certificate request , send it, get the certificate & added it into the wallet, enabled autologin feature, and then make the httpd.conf file point to it. now i can not see my site on the server. by only changing the wallet with the old one, i get the site working again.
    i guess the problem is in the certificate, so what should i check when installing the certificate? is there a limit on key size supported by oracle? should i add a specific cipher suite? how? can anyone tell me where to find a step by step example on using ssl?? (as i told you before, the problem in the wallet)
    thanks for any help
    best regards

    First try doing the following:
    In the Application tier home go to webcache/wallets/default
    Make a copy of the certificates there and then paste ur own certificates. See it might work.
    As for the step by step procedure here is the link:

  • What license should i buy when buying  ebusiness suite

    Dear Sirs...
    i am facing a problem of what license should i buy.
    i would like to use oracle financials for example... as far as i know i can buy the financials license only if and only if i am installing this application on one server, so i should buy:
    oracle financial user licenses
    now if i want to use clustering on the financials (for 2 servers each with one cpu), then i should buy the license of:
    oracle financial user licenses
    oracle database server license x 2
    oracle clustering license x 2
    my question now is:
    if i am installing financials on a server with 4 cpus, then the license that i will buy will be
    oracle financial user licenses
    is this correct???? or not?
    please where can i find such oracle license details?
    thanks for any help in advance
    best regards

    Dear Sir...
    just to make sure...
    assume i have a company with 200 employees, i want to use finacials application, the application will be deployed on a single server with 4 cpus. the quantity of the license i should buy now is:
    1- 10% of the 200 users = 20 user license, or
    2- 10% of the 200 users =20 x 4 cpus = 80 user license, or
    3- 200 user license, or
    4- 200 x 4 = 800 user license ?
    it is supposed i should buy 10% of the 200 users = 20 user license, but i am getting confused because terms of named user plus and cpu license.
    is there anyone who can conform which one is correct?
    thanks in advance

  • PLEASE report what you've already tried when posting problems/questions!

    A lot of threads have a common theme:
    (1) The first post describes a problem, or asks a question.
    (2) The second (or third, or fourth) post suggests doing or trying something.
    (3) The next response, from the original poster, says "Oh, I already tried that!"
    Please, when describing a problem or asking a question, be reasonably detailed about the scenario, what you did, what results you got, WHAT YOU'VE ALREADY TRIED, etc.
    Vague undetailed problems/questions, not describing the N steps you've already taken to try to resolve it, etc. just waste time and bandwidth all around!
    Doug

    Hi Doug;
    If we are going to start of list of things NOT to do when posting a question, the one I always think is the absolute silliest is when they say I am having trouble with an application and never ever tell up what application they are talking about as if we have a crystal ball which is going to tell us what mythical application it is. Well it turns out generally my crystal ball is foggy just then so I have to ask what are you talking about here.
