Flash 8.0 Pro PROBLEMS

I have just installed the trial version of Flash Pro 8.0
But everytime I import a picture, and insert an effect it
gives stupid messages: missing ) after argument list?
Can anyone help me?

system requirements for flash 8 do not support ME - Me is an
outdated OS that is no longer supported
by Microsoft (if it is supported I don't think it will be for
much longer). The sytem requirements
for Flash are found on the product page. If you are serious
about using Flash, you may want to
consider upgrading your OS to XP.

  • Scrolling Marquee created in Flash 5.5 Pro not working in CP5.5

    Hi all.
    I've created a scrolling marquee .swf within Flash 5.5 Pro which has the dimensions of 30x205.
    This works perfectly both testing the scene in Flash as well as when you view the .swf on it's own.
    However, when I import the .swf into Captivate 5.5 and run the project, the scrolling text starts perfectly but then doesn't stop, i.e. it is not bounded by the original size of the Flash project so I end up with the message sscrolling right across the screen till all the text is visible, when it disappears.
    I'm not sure if this is a Flash problem where I have missed something or done something wrong, or a Captivate problem.
    I'm really VERY new to Flash so I'm guessing it is something I haven't done.
    I understand that you can force Flash projects to be bounded to an area of the screen by using AS3, but I have no coding experience and am stuck.
    Can anyone help?
    I'm happy to share the relevant files if anyone wants to see what I've done.
    Thanks all.
    P.S. I've also posted this in the Flash forum in case it is that.

    Col, it's just one of the quirks in the way that Flash works.  Even though youv'e set your Flash document size to be only 30 pixels by 205 pixels, if you have the text starting off stage and scrolling onto the stage, then the REAL stage area (including the scrap area around the stage) MUST be larger than 30x205 right? 
    So what happens is that unless you mask the stage area to hide the bits you don't want to see, if you place that SWF into another SWF that has a larger stage area, then the scrolling text will be visible even before it gets to what you thought to be the visible stage area.
    So you need to get your head around the concept of Masking in Flash to pull off what you want to do here.  With masking, you're actually looking through a window the same size as the mask to see the scrolling text.  Then even when you bring it into a larger SWF like the Captivate movie, all you're going to see is the area covered by the mask.
    I tried to get to your FLA file but couldn't find it in Acrobat.com for some reason.  Message said the file could not be found.

  • How to restore sound to exported avi? - Flash MX 2004 Pro

    Hi,
    Over the last couple of days I have been tinkering around with Flash MX 2004 Pro. More specifically, I have been importing avi's to the library and then placing the embedded video into a movieclip so I could have more control over it. While in the library I could preview the video along with the sound. Exporting the video again in avi format it would render the sound. However, all of a sudden it will only preview the video and not the sound in the library and the same goes for when I export a video there is no sound. The strange thing is the sound is still present when I test the movie. I have tried reinstalling the program with no luck. Any ideas?
    Many thanks.

    Well there is no answer to my question, but I did finally get the Adobe Media Encoder dialog box to come back again.
    After uninstalling Premiere and QuickTime, then shutting down the computer, rebooting and logging on to the Admin account, shutting down again, rebooting again, logging in to the Admin account again ...
    I then went in to the registry and removed all the Entries that had either of these in it:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\DVA\COM
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\DVA\FLASH
    and these as well
    C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTComponents\FLV.qtx
    C?\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTComponents\FLV.qtx
    Rebooted the computer, logged back in to Admin.
    I then re-installed QuickTime, and rebooted.
    I then installed Premiere and the Adobe Media Encoder Flash dialog now shows up.
    I'd be careful messy with the registry if you are trying to fix this type of problem.  Try uninstalling quicktime and premiere and do the above shutdown, reboot sequence a number of times before doing anything to the registry. 
    I'm not sure what I'm going to do about that Flash Website I've working on...

  • Need to re-download Flash CS5.5 Pro

    I have a Flash CS5.5 Pro License and a new computer at work - the old computer has been wiped - I therefore I need to re-download and reinstall Flash 5.5 on my new Win 7 pc.  I am an occasional Flash user only these days and am not going to cough for an upgrade, and definitely not interested in the Cloud service.  I have called a number of Adobe help lines already, and was eventually referred here, being assured that my problem would be resolved, so please can someone solve this one for me here.
    Thanks in advance.

    CS5.5 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-5-product-downloads.html
    You can also download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
    Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.
    CS5.5: http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs5-5-direct-download-links.html
    If you never deactivated the installation on the old machine you should contact Adobe support thru chat and ask them to reset your acrivations.  That way you will still be able to install and activate on two machines if you ever need a backup.
    For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...

  • On 12/23/11 I update the adobe flash player and have had problems since- unexpected closing and freezing. Remove the adobe flash player and those problems resolved. How do I go back to the earlier version of adobe?

    I was prompted by Firefox to update my adobe flash player on 12/23/11, which I did. Ever since then the web site has frozen and/or crashed. I run a internet business and can't have this continue. I uninstalled the flash player and the problems have stopped. I would like to reinstall the earlier version of adobe, since that didn't seem to impact the web site.
    This is the flash player I installed on the 23rd - Flash Player 10.3 for Mac OS X 10.4-10.5 (Intel)

    Your above posted list of installed plugins doesn't show the Flash plugin for Firefox.<br />
    See [[Managing the Flash plugin]] and [[Installing the Flash plugin]]

    No.
    Working only with Flash Builder 4 to compile, but you can switch the flash player versions anyway.
    And when my flash version is up to 10.1 the trace console commes crazy, and brokes the debbug session.
    But never mind, i did kill the OS already in order to keep working.

    Yeah, it does make me appreciate Wordpress. I would have
    stuck with it, but
    when I found out that you have to pay to edit your CSS (on
    their hosted
    plan), I switched back to Blogger!
    I'll keep my eye on that beta ("draft") version of Blogger. I
    have to be
    cautious with my client's account, but maybe I'll try it for
    my own blogs.
    Thanks again...!

  • What do i get with Flash pro8 vs. Flash mx 2004 pro?

    Hi all,
    I currently have Flash MX 2004 Pro. What more am i getting by
    upgrading to Flash pro 8 that i don't already have with MX 2004
    pro?

    HI,
    Thanks...
    I wish they would keep a comparison chart.
    I did search the forum and read the "Whats new" in the
    product discription but i still like to ask current users because
    they can provide a "worth it or not worth it" opinion since some
    updates are not more than an attempt to generate more revenue
    through minor improvements.

  • Flash MX 2004 Pro & QuickTime Pro 7

    Iam using Flash MX 2004 Pro and there is a feature that when
    I want to publish a movie it says I can export a movie in
    quicktime. I tried it and I get the following error. "Flash MX - An
    error occured because a required QuickTime component could not be
    found." I have QuickTime Pro 7 and do not understand this error.
    What am I missing.
    Thank you,
    AdonaiEchad

  • Flash player causes real problems on Youtube

    Flash player causes real problems on Youtube site.
    I don't really know if it's a Flash Player problem or a Youtube one but Youtube used to work fine back in like 3-4 months ago, now it doesn't anymore.
    The issues I encounter with Flash player on Youtube are as follows:
    First issue is the fact that after the video completely loads or it loads a big part of it then I click on the seek bar to jump at a specific time that has been already downloaded by the Flash player the video starts loading again from that point on like it didn't actually downloaded that part before. This issue causes big bandwith use since it downloads many many times the same portions of the clip that it has already loaded before dozens of time. If I play a 3 min music clip and click replay or point on the seek bar at the begining of the clip to play it again it loads/downloads the clip again and again and again. If the video clip has over 1 hour then I click play it might entirely load into the player in a few minutes then I click on the seek bar to skip at a certain point it starts loading again from that point on. This is the most anoying thing I encounter with Youtube lately.
    Second issue is the fact that if I click on the seek bar of the player to skip to a specific time most of the time the playback does not start from that point on but it skips back to the last point where it was so I must click several times or keep the mouse button pressed for a long time on the same point in order to play from that place on. This one is again very anoying.
    Third issue is that after the video starts playing in 360p it automatically changes to 720p after a minute or so even if I had checked this setting "I have a slow connection. Never play higher-quality video" in Youtube Playback Settings. I cleared the cookies and chosed several times the same "I have a slow connection. Never play higher-quality video" setting in Youtube Playback Settings but it just doesn't keep the settings on. This one is again very anoying since my computer can't handle well 720p.
    I have reinstalled Win XP SP3 and even installed Win 7 SP1 tried several versions of Flash Player and several versions of Firefox, Chrome and Opera but the same issues occur everytime.
    I haven't encounter any of these issues before like 3-4 months ago.

    I have had problems trying to watch videos on youtube for the past couple of years. It's been almost unbearable, even if I set the resolution to 144kb! Then a few days ago, I went to youtube and couldn't watch at all. There was an error showing that my Flashplayer was out of date, and then a link to Firefox to get the right update. I did that two times to no avail. I had just installed the newest version of Flash Player as of November 2014, yet this error kept popping up. Finally, out of utter frustration, I did like you did, and uninstalled everything related to Adobe Flash. Then I went to youtube, just to see how bad the result would be, and suddenly videos started playing smoother, at higher resolution, and with faster buffering to start out.  Sure, there are some videos that I can't play, and the newest iTunes seemed to have issues without having Flash, but videos aren't frustrating me like they had been on youtube.
    So, yeah, I know what you're saying. I had the same solution work for me. Cheers.

  • Ati 9600 Pro Problem Sloved

    Had serious problems getting my Radeon 9600 Pro to work with my MSI 875 Board.
    System crashed after 5 seconds of play and sometimes after 10-15 minutes of gameplay. But it never crashed when I was surfing the net or stuff like that.
    The solution  for me was Zalman heatpipe cooling for the ATI card and a new 360 watt PSU to replace my old 340 watt PSU. And now my card is stable as ****  
    I guess the 9600 PRO problem is a PSU problem and if you take a look at the stock fan I think most of you would like to replace that one as well.

    I am glad that you fixed the problem ...I also bet that the PSU was a greater factor in the fix ...Good job "RKbauge"!!...Sean REILLY875

  • Flash SSD for Adobe Premiere Pro - problem, or not?

    Hi,
    I've just ordered a new workstation specifically for Adobe Premiere Pro use.
    Then I saw this on Adobe's technical requirements page for PP:
    10GB of available hard-disk space for installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on flash-based storage devices)
    It honestly never occurred to me that a modern RAM-based hard drive might cause a problem for specific software, does anyone know if this is true and if so why?
    It's not too late for me to re-spec a 15'000rpm drive instead but it seems a bit daft.
    Thanks in advance
    Alastair

    True enough but like tweaking the bios changing windows swap files (evinronmental varibles actually) etc is not the average users typical tweak!
    SSD is far faster than any SCSI.
    the SSD is less money that SCSI (have to buy a controller)
    Sata is pretty much the same spped as SCSI other than seek time.
    SCSI is dead! i have not seen scsi drives for sale from any of my vendors in about 2 yrs now. SAS yes. but again pointless.
    and the onboard sas controllers are not so hot.
    not to mention having your OS on SSD does make everything snappier. even without the adobe temp files.

  • My Macbook pro, (late 2010) sometimes will sleep and won't wake up. then the sleep light flashes.What's the problem?

    My Macbook pro, (late 2010) sometimes will sleep and won't wake up. then the sleep light flashes.What's the problem

    Hi I've been following this thread (along with a different one on the same topic). I've been having the same problem with my ibook. I can add that I have no problem with startup. It's just that the screen "goes to sleep" unexpectedly and may operate normally for a few minutes or a few hours at most. Opening and closing the lid or restarting seems to cause it to awaken but then usually for just a few seconds or minutes. If it is connected to another video display that display continues functioning fine even though the computer screen is blank. In addition the desktop is there and visible faintly or if totally blank can be backlit through the apple logo and can be read. I've had my logic board replaced twice under the extended warranty and assumed it was that but now I'm thinking of the reed switch. Apple refuses to consider any further work under warranty as the last repair was in Jan, 06 and they claim only a 90 parts warranty and the machine is from 03. Any thoughts before I cut the wires? I have reset the pmu, run cocktail and disk utility. Other than the sleep issue the machine works fine. thanks Ronda or anyone else who has any ideas... Dave
