Flash 8 files not supported by Captivate 1

I am working in Captivate 1 and is trying to import a Flash
file I created in Macromedia Professional Flash 8. I get the
following message from Captivate 1 "Macromedia Flash 8 files are
currently not supported".
Any ideas? Does anyone know how to get around that?
Thanks much,
Veronica.

Hi Veronica
I guess the smart-alec answer is not what you are looking for
here. Go ahead and actually purchase Flash?
Seriously, I suppose the following questions/possible
suggestions come to my mind on it:
Question:
What is it that Captivate isn't doing or you feel cannot do
where you see a need to use Flash in conjunction?
Suggestion:
You may want to investigate a different tool such as Swish.
Particularly if the Flash entry fee is an issue. Swish is less
expensive.

Swish site
Although I've purchased a copy of Swish, I'm not overly
familiar with it. So I'm unsure if it offers the same output
options as Flash WRT the different player versions. I believe
fellow Adobe Community Expert Paul Dewhurst (
http://www.raisingaimee.co.uk)
uses it to create his way cool widgets, so it might work to do what
you need.
Cheers... Rick

  • Flash files not playing in Captivate correctly.

    I have Flash files that make up a course that play correctly in Flash but are breaking in Captivate once I import into the Publish folder. There is a button that remains active without being clicked and will not close as it is supposed to, creating obvious issues in the course. The button does not have these issues in Flash, only in Captivate.
    Has anyone had an issue like this or any thoughts on how to fix it?

    Is the SWF published for AS2 or AS3?  Captivate only accepts AS3 nowadays.
    The other likely issue is that perhaps you have inadvertently used a symbol name for your button, or some of your AS code functions/variables etc, that happen to be reserved by Captivate for its own use.  These types of conflicts can cause issues.

  • Files not supported error with Sorenson Squeeze 4

    I'm trying to create flv. files for a video art site on the web. I have tried importing Sorenson 3 mov files, mpeg4 and mpeg2 files and simple QT files, thye all say "files not supported" after the compression says complete, and they won't play. What am I doing wrong? How shoudl I export my final cut pro movies so Squeeze will compress them? Secondly, there are a huge number of choices under flash, which should I be selecting?

    Sorry to say, but if you are familar with video compression, those settings are pretty much basic, and I don't know exactly what to explain to you.

  • Just upgraded to Lion and can no longer import any .mov files ("file not supported") to 3.1.3.  Also can no longer view any .mov or .mp4 files already in library.

    Have been using Aperture 3.1.3 with no problems.  Importing from a Nikon D80 (RAW & JPEG), Casio (.MOV) and Flip (.mp4).  Could import and view all videos without issue prior to Lion upgrade.  After Lion installation, can no longer import .mov files (get "file not supported" error) or even view any .mov or .mp4 files currently in library (even though thumbnail is present).  Can watch the .mov files directly on my camera using Quicktime in Finder but can't even drag & drop that file into Aperture.  Anybody else having similar problems?

    Still no resolution and Geniuses at store could not assist.  Unfortunately, it looks like not all the applications were ready to support the Lion operating system.  We could not import any .mov files, could no longer view any .mov files already in my Aperture library and could not email any .mov files.  Totally frustrated.  Use Aperture almost daily and can't lose the video functionality.  Was also running dog-slow.  Constantly looking at the spinning wheel.  Geniuses suggested that I wipe out hard drive and reinstall Snow Leopard.  Had full backup on external drive with Time Machine. 
    Not an easy process though...had to reinstall several times (at 5 hours each time) because I continued to have issues.  Finally figured out that I needed to delete every backup file from Time Machine on external drive from the date I installed Lion because some of the hidden files were still migrating back to Snow Leopard.
    I had to:
    1. Delete all time machine backup files from date/time of Lion installation forward
    2. Do "clean" installation of Snow Leopard (wiped hard drive using disk utility and booted with Snow Leopard disc)
    3. Chose option to reinstall from backup off Time Machine which eventually got me back to Snow Leopard desktop
    4. Deleted Aperture program and reinstalled (I had to install Aperture 2 and then install Aperture 3 upgrade.
    5. Reinstalled iLife apps
    5. Applied all Apple updates available (again this took a few hours because there were several updates from Snow Leopard's original release plus Aperture 3 and other application updates)
    Still doing some tweaking on some of my other apps but got everything back to where I originally was.  Now plan to wait on a few version updates from Lion before reinstalling.
    I am one of Apple's biggest fans, but was very disappointed in the fact that I lost functionality in one of their own pieces of software (which I use the most!)  by installing Lion.

  • Adobe flash player not support in android 4.1.2 samsung s2

Sir plz SOLVE THIS PROBLEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
    SIR PLZ GIVE ME FEEDBACK...
              -THANK YOU SO MUCH...

    There is no more Flash Player for Android and there won't be another. Android is no longer compatible with Flash Player. Playing Flash content is very processor consumptive and it drains your battery, also shortening the life of it. Android (Google) recommends using either "Dolphin" or "Puffin" as your browser if you need to view Flash content with a mobile device running Android. They're both free in the GooglePlay store. These browsers use "server side" rendering to reduce the load on your device.

    Flash files not displaying in Firefox, Safari, and Opera. Most recent Shockwave installed, private browsing active in Firefox?  Works perfectly in Chrome and Internet Explorer.  HELP!!!!

    I suppose it would have helped if you knew what it was supposed to look like!   I'm using Shockwave Flash 11.7.700.169  and the version of Firefox I'm on is 20.0
    When you see it in Firefox  - do the thumbnail populate the grid?  See attached populated and un-populated.
    Populated grid is with Chrome.
    Thanks!
    Thanks in advance!

  • TV 32tl838g DLNA Video File not supported

    Hi,
    I bought a new TV, 32TL838G 3D LED, but I'm not happy with it.
    It says it supports DLNA, but for some reason I can't watch any video with DLNA. I had DivX activated, but it didn't help much..
    And i've tried a lot of different videos (with different codecs) but I can't play any of them..
    The strange part, is that I can play all those videos if I put them in a USB Pen drive..
    And the problem is not in my DLNA server, as with other DLNA devices I'm able to reproduce those videos, so this is an issue with this TV.
    I hope that someone here could explain me why this happens, and how to fix it, or at least that a new firmware will fix this (as if with USB videos are playable, then its not hardware but more likely a software issue)
    This is completely unacceptable, when a feature is announced it HAS TO work properly.

    I'm using Windows 7, it supports DLNA so I don't need to install any other software..
    In TV I can browse all movies and folders that I have shared in my Win7 computer, the problem is that I can't watch any movie ,as it says File not supported.
    If I put the same movie in a Pen Drive, and plug the pen drive in the TV than I can watch it without any issue..
    The problem is when I try to watch movies in TV using the DLNA..
    The TV is connected to LAN by wire, not wireless..
    Again, In other devices, like with my Android phone, I can watch movies that I have in my Win7 Computer without any issue, using DLNA (with Samsung Allshare app)
    Thanks

  • Acsm files not supported

    Adobe Reader can only open PDF files; for .acsm files you need Adobe Digital Editions.

  • Flash player not supported..

    As a user experience professional I am amazed by the iPhone BUT dismayed that Flash is not supported. When should we expect support?? So much important information lives within Flash today kind of mind boggling to consider how many people will be pulling their hair out when they learn that their Flash content will not exist in iPhone.

    If he's truly not sure about something, or doesn't want to say, he normally just says "we don't talk about future products" (& he says that a lot). So many interpret "maybe" and other leading statements to = "yes, later".
    Remember though that Flash software will take up more storage on your iPhone.
    You can ask Apple for iPhone changes via this link:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
    Though if you're requesting hardware changes for iPhone v2 you may want to wait a week (or a month?)...they're probably going to be inundated right now by requests for software changes to the current iPhone.

  • Flash file not responding if more than 1 flash file.

    product : Adobe Flex Builder ver 2.. HELP required urgently..
    I'm very new to Flex. in my adobe FLEX page, i'm displaying 2
    flash file (.swf). the flash file itself pop-up data based on click
    on the adobe flash file. however only 1 flash file (first flash
    file) responsds and 2nd flash file loaded but NOT responding to
    click and no data pop-up in the 2nd flash file.
    However, if i change the order of FlashLoader2.load("file"),
    the 2nd flash file responding and the 1st flash file not
    responding. so, we can conclude that flash file is ok. anything
    need to change in adoble flex???? pls help.
    thanks

    ar tech,
    I think that your problem is to do with layering. You have
    specified both loaders to have width and height 100% so (unless
    there is more to your code than you have posted) they will sit on
    top of each other. In that case unless you have done some clever
    code to pass on the mouse request, it will get swallowed by
    whichever one is on top (hence the change of behaviour when you
    alter the order of loading).
    It sounds from your description as though they actually sit
    in different screen areas, so maybe try changing the location
    parameters and see if both respond when you put them side by side.

  • Tried Most Everything... Error Type of file not supported... codec not installed

    Hi Friends: I have been battling with the error message of ... "Type of file not support or codec not installed."  I have been throughout the forums searching for answers and attempting various suggestions.  I am stumped and am reaching out for some wisdom and help.
    1.)    System Gateway – T-6859u, Intel Core 2 Duo T6400 2Ghz, 4 Gig ram, Problem has existed on both Vista and upgraded Windows 7.  I have used Premiere since Premier 5 (Full version not elements) including versions 6 and PRO.  I have Elements on my laptop for convenience.
    2.)    Assets- Problem exists with all AVI files.  This includes files that worked previously but will no longer be recognized.  I have used Elements since version 7 was new.  It is only the last 4 months this has been and issue.  These are AVIs that previously working in Elements 7 from Panasonic DV camera and other DV sources. 
    3.)    Problem first appeared when Windows Update installed security patch KB975560.  Once the Security patch installed Premiere quit running AVIs.  When the patch was removed Premiere worked again. However, windows update continued to reload the patch.  The patch has now been removed and prevented from reloading.  However, the problem now persists.
    4.)    Other attempted repairs.  Reloading Premiere Elements 7, Upgrading to Windows 7, Removing and reinstalling K-Lite Codec packs inc standard and 64bit.  Loading LEADTOOLS.  None has repaired the problem  All the AVI files playback fine in other programs including Windows Movie Maker, Media Player Classic, WM player etc.
    I'm not sure what to do next.  I have been a dedicated Premiere user for so many years, I don't want to switch to another program.  Any suggestions friends?

    Welcome to the forum.
    What version of Apple's QT Player do you have installed?
    PrE relies on this much more than its big-brother, PrPro, until CS5.
    From my experience, QT  7.5.5 was my "last known good," and some problems have been reported with the 7.6.2 and 7.6.3 versions. 7.6.6 is out, and works well for many Adobe users.
    I would investigate updating QT Player.
    Also, FFDShow, an element in K-Lite has been death to PrPro for many people. Just having it installed brings PrPro to its knees.
    Though Adobe hides its CODEC's pretty well, K-Lite has been known to shift the priority of the Adobe MainConcept CODEC's. While it does not overwrite them, or delete them, it sets up some of its CODEC's to take priority. There are some older threads on Registry editing and utilities to reset the priority of the Adobe MainConcept CODEC's. Seems that Robert Johnson participated in those discussions and may have furnished the link to at least one utility.
    Those are all the thoughts that I have now, and none might be of use.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    PS - Robert has not been around here lately, but does spend time on the Muvipix Community forum. I'd post there in the PrE 7 forum, and ask if anyone has any ideas too.

  • "Type of file not supported" but previous timeline files OK

    Simply put, I have projects that I can open up and they display and edit the MTS files from my Panasonic camera fine.  yet, I cannot add any new MTS files or even import ones that are already in the timeline without it saying to me "Type of file not supported".  It obviously supports them since my project before imported and I edited them without problem.
    I just got done uninstalling and reinstalling the software.  But no help.
    How can it see and use MTS files in my timeline yet cannot recognize any of the same files in the media folder?
    I'm stuck with a useless Premiere Application.  $99 down the drain.
    Help!

    I found out the problem.
    The MTS files can't be dragged into the timefrom from the media folder.
    They can be dragged from the project folder.
    That is the simple fact.  Even though it says it does not recognize the file type in the media area, if you import a file into the media area it also appears in the project area and you can go to the project area to drop the file into the timeline.
    Go figure...
    I am editing away once again.  This is what happens when you don't use a program for a while.
    Oil well...

  • Raw files not supported

    I have a new Canon T2i and can't seem to get the raw files to open in Elements 8. I have downloaded the 5.6 camera raw update and the DNG converter and both say camera raw files not supported......now what?

    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
    I  have also an EOS Rebel T2i since a few days and I experienced the same issue with Photoshop CS4.  What next? !!!!
    It's likely the next version of Adobe Camera Raw will handle it;   Adobe updates ACR about every three or four months, and the most recent version was released in December:

  • Why is adobe flash player not supported?

    Why is adobe flash player not supported?

    Because.
    Apple and Adobe could never come up with an OS that liked flash and a version of flash that worked on the OS. So never the twain will meet. and now Adobe is abandoning mobile flash in favor of other things, so it's become a moot point.
    With the surge in the number of mobile devices and the fact that a lot of them don't use flash, site creators will need to take mobile devices into account when they create their sites and assess their accessibility.
