Flash and possible shockwave problem. Help!

I'm on vista. I am completely fed up with downloading flash
player over and over. It downloads and works, then once i turn off
the computer and turn it on again, i'm prompted to redownload it,
even though it's on my pc already. I really dunnowhat to do and
it's annoying me so much. Also, Shockwave will not install now. I
click the install button and allow the internet add-on, but instead
of installing, it stops.

I'm having a similar problem on my Mac. Flash was working.
Then, it quit working, telling me I have to upgrade. When, I
reinstall, it acts like it hasn't happened. What gives?
Thanks.

  • Canon Rebel T3 EOS Flash and Auto Mode Problems: Help Me!

    I recently got a job as a photographer for the nightlife in my city. I went out and tried to shoot the other night. My camera isn't broken, but I had it in auto (green rectangle) and when I'd hit the shutter button, it would just flash, looking like it was having a seizure, and not take the picture. It eventually took the photos, but it flashed in their faces like 3 times before it actually took the photo. People cursed me out and it was awful. Why won't my camera just take the picture the first time??? Why does it say it's "busy" and how do I know when to take the photo to avoid pissing people off? Also, when I went to the "no flash" seting, it took the picture with no problem, but I absolutely NEED the flash to work. Please help me!

    Bob has nailed it.... when auto-focus is enabled and the camera is using "One Shot" mode (the default focus mode), the camera will NOT take a photo until it can confirm that it was able to lock focus.  To help the camera focus, it will attempt to use the pop-up flash and strobe it very quickly to create something which is more-or-less about 1 seconds worth of continuous light. You'll want an external speedlite flash for two reasons... 1)  Several external flash models include a "focus-assist" beam.2)  The external speedlite models are significantly more powerful than the built-in pop-up flash and can handle subjects at much greater distances. Normally I'd suggest a Canon Speedlite 430EX II... but Canon recently announced it replacement will be available in mid-septermber.  The 430EX III-RT ... and it's the same price (the new model has a radio receiver and can triggered via radio instead of optical (optical triggers require line-of-sight... radio does not.)  I'd much rather have the radio-eqiupped version. The focus-assist beam in the flash illuminates a red-pattern momentarily while the camera is focusing.  This beam allows the camera to focus even in total darkness.  It doesn't have to pulse the flash to work as a modeling light to achieve focus (it's actually much better than the 1-second long burst of light.)

  • Itunes and Mac Pro Problem -- Help Please

    Having a really strange problem and could use some help.
    I've got a Mac Pro with my wife's Ipod attached. Updating songs on the Ipod has become very, very slow. Literally, it's taking hours to move over a couple of albums.
    Just out of curiousity, I hooked it up to a Macbook Pro in the house and everything was just fine. Tried reinstalling itunes on the Mac Pro and it didn't do it the trick.
    All machines are intel based. Other peripherals are working fine.
    Any suggestions? Thanks.

  • I got render and RAM preview problems. help?

    i got render and RAM preview problems with after effects! please help me
    when i started on a project earlier today the RAM preview was failing and it stoped making a preview after about a second, when i hit the RAM preview buttom again it continued to load and stoped again after a half second, and it continued to do that till it wasn't loading at all, just playing the same thing up even doe it haden't loaded the whole composition! BUT if i moved the (thing you see where you are on the timeline in need of a better name) it started loading a little more and then it stoped again.. so after alot of problems and moving i managed to make a RAM preview of the whole composition..
    now the real problem: when i was done with my project and i was going to reender i did like this: i added my composition to the render queue, chosed my render settings and started to render, after exactly 37 frames it stoped and no window or anything poped up, the only thing that was telling me something was wrong was the render status, and it said: ''failed at 0;00;00;37'' that's not even a second! and BTW when i render after effects only uses 12% of my 6GB RAM memory.. i dont know what to do! i've tried other render settings but the same thing happens! can anyone help me?
    BTW i'm swedish and only 14 so i might misspelled something..

    Start here and make sure that you understand how RAM preview is supposed to work first:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/424030
    What version of After Effects? Have you installed the recent updates? What operating system? What kind(s) of source footage? Has this ever worked before? What other software are you running? Do you have any third-party effects or codecs installed? Are you rendering with OpenGL?
    What are your Memory & Multiprocessing settings? Are you using Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously multiprocessing?

  • I recently updated Adobe Flash and Adobe Shockwave, now Firefox will not load. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and still nothing. Help

    Firefox never opens. It is trying but nothing seems to change, no matter how much time is allowed.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Help with 655 Max and Possible Memory Problems...

    Just recieved my 655 Max and have put my system together, but when I turn it on it makes a constant beeping sound. I tried taking out both memory sticks, lol, and turning it on and the sound stops, I tried putting in one memory stick and the sound starts again.
    I suppose this is a memory problem.
    by the way I am using Corssair 256mb CMX256a-3200C2 memory.

    [The alarm that you are getting is the CPU Fan Alarm you will have to diable it in the Bios. I am using a Vantec Aeroflow  heatsink and my CPU alarm also is constantly on and was very annoying till I disabled it. My system still doesn't boot to XP yet as I have RMA'd bothe the MB and Ram.   QUOTE]Originally posted by TritonB7
    Hey Kaiguy the comp does continue to make sounds till I shut the system off. And I'm not sure how a standard pc tone sound would sound like, :(. But it does make beep followed by a lower pitched beep, and it repeats this till I shutdown the system.
    (1) I cannot Access Bios.
    (2) I have two sticks of Corsair 256mb CMX256a-3200C2 memory. I do not have any other ram available that will be compatible with this motherboard. Ive tried using one stick at a time in each of the slots. No Luck.
    I highly think that both sticks not working is very unreal.
    (3) and reseting bios by the jumper isnt working either.
    I can probably try buying some diffrent memory, or returning the whole mobo and exchanging it for the same one.
    By the way on my monitor when i turn the comp on it says 8x Extreme or something close to it while the comp is beeping. I doubt that, that has anything to do with it. This is my first MSI board :( , I've always been an Asus person but Im still open for MSI i'm sure I just recieved a faulty board.

  • Linksys SPA3102 "flashing" and incoming call problem.

    I tried to do as much research as I could before posting, however i'm stuck =/.
    My Setup:
    Phone Port on wall Split into three phone ports, one with a fax in it, one with a splitter, one empty.
    From the splitter I have a line into a D-link modem and a line into the back of the SPA3102.
    From the D-Link modem i have an ethernet cable plugged into the SPA3102 [im not using the inbuilt modem, should i be ?]
    Also from the D-link modem i have a D-link wireless router.
    Then I have a line into a set of Telstra V900 cordless phones from the SPA3102.
    I also have another phone connected directly to the PSTN line in another room.
    The problem is when a call is coming in on the PSTN line the phone connected directly to the PSTN line rings however the phones connected to through the SPA3102 don't register the call until much after the PSTN phone does. I'm not sure how to go about fixing that.
    Also should I pick up on the wired PSTN handset, how do I go about switching to the wireless handset. "flashing" i think it's called. 
     NOTE: I'm in the market for new wireless phones anyway as the telstra V900 ones are crap, any recmomendations ?
    Any help would be appreciated. 

    First I didn’t understand what you meant for “I’m not using the inbuilt modem” for the SPA-3102. Did you mean you set the SPA-3102 as a bridged? 
    If you are using a phone splitter where one of the 3 phone ports is connected to the PSTN portion of the SPA-3102 and the other phone splitter port is into another phone and someone calls the PSTN line, the phone connected to the splitter will really ring for it gets a share of the signal coming from the splitter. The phone connected to the phone port (FXS) port for the SPA-3102 will ring only if the PSTN signal has successfully transferred the call to the from the PSTN line registration to the actual Line 1 registration. If that is not happening, there are some registration settings you need to check in the SPA-3102. One important parameter is the registration status of the Line 1 and PSTN lines. You can check that under the Info section just make sure you are login as admin advanced login with the SPA-3102. You should be getting registration state “registered” confirming that the VoIP information you set in the SPA-3102 is valid. If registrations are correct, maybe you need to know is the PSTN Line is transferring the call to the VoIP line section. Setting up this portion is discussed in this link:

  • Very strange and possibly complex problem: Macbook (A1342) Trackpad starts acting strangely after typing something on keyboard

    A few things you need to understand first:
    1) My macbook keyboard does not work.
    2) Upon reboot, the trackpad works fine.
    3) Then, as soon as I try typing something on the macbook keyboard, the trackpad starts to register every single click as a two-finger (right-click).
    4) Then, immediately after I push a key down on the bluetooth keyboard, the trackpad starts doing the double-click thing again.
    Here's another strange thing. This issue arose a few weeks ago, then suddenly disappeared without me doing anything. I mean, the trackpad AND macbook keyboard were both working flawlessly. After about a week, this reappeared again, and my macbook keyboard stopped working, with the exception of like, 1 key.I have no idea what this could possibly be. Advice appreciated, though I'm not sure anyone here would have any clue what this could be.

    I had a similar problem.  The battery was VERY SLIGHTLY deformed and was exerting preassure on the bottom of the trackpad.  A new battery solved the problem.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why does my 08 iMac display flashing and partial window problems?

    I have a 2008 iMac with OS X 10.9.2 with 4Gb memeory. In the past week we have experienced partial windows pop up and have unable to close the windows. The problem is resolved by restarting the computer. This has happened about four times in the last week. Today I was using a window and notice flashing when I clicked the mouse with partial windows I had been using previously began appearing on the screen. Any input would be appreciated. Up until this point I have had no problems with this iMac.

    Update - I spent a half hour on the phone with AppleCare this morning and we were unable to resolve the issue. I then took both my display and iMac to the Apple Store today and the Genius Bar not only replaced my iMac - they replaced my 24" Cinema Display with a BRAND NEW 27" Cinema Display! The Genius said that Apple's engineers wanted to research why my display was flickering using the exact display and iMac. Incredible service! And a brand new display!

  • Possible line problems - Help Please?

    Good Morning,
    Been having a lot of problems with slow speeds and the Hub disconnecting recently. I suspect this is to do with the phone line as my setup has not changed since previous issues I had with internal wiring which I fixed with help from people on here...
    Anyway, my Hub is connected directly into the test socket and my stats are as below. This doesn't seem right. My noise margin seems very low and the number of errors and events seem rather high. My IP profile has been higher in the past and stable until a few weeks ago.
    I realise the connection is not 'stable' as it's been less than three to five days - I'm struggling to keep a connection for 24 to 48 hours at the moment without a reset so this is good for now!
    Any help from Mods or others much appreciated. Not much I can do at this end.
    Thanks,
    Dan.

  • New mac user..possible imac problem,help please!

    I've had my imac for about 3 weeks and in the last 4-5 days after waking up from sleep mode it has been lagging severly. At first it was for about 15 mins now its been going on for over 45. First of all, applications and anything I click on in them takes a very long time to open and sometimes several clicks. The rainbow ball curser seems to come up for much longer than usual. Then when I type, nothing shows and I have to click on the window to get what i typed to come up. I have plenty of room on my harddrive and 1 GB RAM that was factory installed. Being a new mac user, I really don't know what to do about it. Anyone know whats wrong or what to do?
    Thanks in advance.
