Flash appearing as a button

in the last month, suddenly, flash files in the explorer,
appears as buttons (one big button) until i press ones and then
everything works as usual.
it happends to all flash files, not only the ones that I
published.
any one knows anything about it?
thanks

I agree with Tony, the sarcasm and hostility's not very
useful. As an occasional but smart user of the forum I have to say
that when I was looking for answers to this problem the other day,
the first 4 or 5 strings I tried just didn't turn up anything.
Anyway, to try and be helpful, the most useful page on this
I've found is here:
http://www.amarasoftware.com/macromedia-ie-solution.htm
One thing she doesn't mention: don't include the ".swf" in
calling the name. But it works like a charm to fix the problem. If
there's some standard link in this forum that explains it better
someone should post it, but I never found it.

  • How can I keep just the large fox on my homepage? The flashing message about the buttons is a little too much!!

    I was at least able to clear the new flashing message about simplifying buttons by clicking back to home or refreshing the page to get the stationary fox wrapped around the world back, now it will not do it. I have a medical condition that sometimes is aggravated when there is a flashing screen. Please help...
    Thank-you & have a nice day! :)

    If you prefer not to see snippets on the about:home page then you can set the <b>browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl</b> pref to an empty string on the <b>about:config</b> page.
    Delete the <b>storage\moz-safe-about+home</b> folder in the Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed to remove snippets stored in IndexedDB and make Firefox use a default set.
    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    You can reset the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref to the default value to re-enable the snippets.

  • Flash appears to install on Win 7, IE 8but will not display

    32 bit Windows 7
    IE 8, 32 bit
    FP 10.2.152.32
    FP S/W installation windows indicate that FP installed (Download Manager also says so)
    FP & Download Manager are both shown in Programs.
    History: Few weeks ago system was severely corrupted even though had McAfee Viruscan and Webroot Spysweeper. It was indicated every time an attempt to look at a video was made wherepon the computer would shutdown a few seconds afterwards. Working w/ Dell Support they determined the system was too far corrupted to save (7000+ files corrupted!!). They suggested that it would be preferable to install W 7 to replace then current XP operating system. Had disk formatted and XP operating system re-installed but only sufficient to  allow operation of email. When Windows 7 arrived fully installed along w/ new Word/Excel 2010 S/W. Retrieved backuped files successfully. Everything is operating OK except for FP. Every attempt to load (after repeated uninstalls) shows it to be "successful" but still won't allow videos to play.
    Based on perusal of thread, opened register to check on "kill-bit", found no indication it was set.
    What should I do next?

    Hi, what a terrible experience to have to go thru! I hope you don't still have either one of those "Anti-Virus" programs on your system. If not, what Anti-Virus/Spyware program(s) do you have?
    Yes it was terrible, but Dell (Solution Station, paid support) made this sickening experience bearable. Right now I have McAfee Total Protection 2011 for what it's worth (ya gotta have something) and I use Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (free version) twice a day to scan. The only thing it finds repeatedly is something in the registry defined as : HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\regfile\shell\open\command\...
    So I can understand this, you now have Win7 on the computer? The backup files are from the XP that had the 7000 corrupted files?? When you reformatted XP, weren't those files lost? I guess what I need to know is how did those files get Installed onto the Win7 OS?
    Here's the sequence of events: I back up periodically with a WD My Book Essentials external drive, assuring that the system is as clean as I can get it and otherwise operating normally. I don't do it continuously for fear that I could be backing up corrupted files right up to the point the disk crashes The back up that was used was about six weeks old. The 7000+ corrupted files were cleaned before reformatting but would have been lost regardless when the disk was reformatted. After it was reformatted and before installation of W7, the  Dell reinstallation disk for XP was used. No backup files were loaded on this temporary XP system. When the W7 system was installed these backup files from the external drive were cleaned with Malwarebyes which found about 20 corrupted files. Since then only two have regularly appeared , they are in the registry defined as: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\regfile\shell\open\command\def...
    Also why wasn't the malware cleaned before reformatting?
    As indicated above, it was cleaned but never used again since it was all lost with the reformatting. The reinstalled software came from a six week old backup which has worked well and shows none of the malware, except for the few Malwarebytes intially found.
    One other thing, I revisited the "kill-bit" procedure. While I didn't find what you indicated, I did find these two entries with HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ :
          Name                        Type                    Data
    "icon w/ab in it"             REG SZ            (value not set)
    "icon w/ab in it"             REG SZ            application/x-shockwave-flash
    Also, I was looking at your procedure in post #26, in response to jfirko where a vs 9 of FP is installed/uninstalled followed by the current version of FP. For my situation is this a worthwile approach?
    By the way, thanks for your interest in solving these problems. So many programs now use the flash player but there are so few sources to turn to when problems occur.

    How do I install recommended updates, when I click on adobe flash plugin update now buttons, I hit a dead end on oracle's website, how do I complete the update?

    First, grab the Adobe uninstaller from here:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html
    Then download Flash 10.3.183.90 from here - about halfway down the page:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html
    (Released 6/11/2013) Flash Player 10.3.183.90 (61.1 MB)
    IMO, the best version of Flash for WinXP. Adobe kept up with security updates for 10.3 for WinXP users long after Flash 11.0 came out in 2011 for Vista and newer versions of Windows.
    Run the uninstaller, then reboot your operating system.
    Then you can run the Flash installer, with Firefox closed, of course.
    ''Note, if you still use IE you'll need to reinstall the ActiveX version of Flash for IE. That uninstaller removes all versions of Flash that might be installed,''

  • My Firefox interface is messed up. When I hover over or click a button it becomes all pixlated, the blocks move around, and lines appear around the buttons.

    When I hover over or click a button on the tool bar it becomes messed up. Blocks, or more like pixels, appear over the buttons. They are white and they move around. Little black lines appear around the buttons too. I tried uninstalling and re-downloading Firefox, a full reset, etc. Nothing has worked so far.

  • Flash Player "Install Now" Button reverts to Adobe Home Page

    Trying to install update to 11.9.900.152, but Flash Player "Install Now" Button sends me right back to Adobe Home Page.
    Windows Vista 32-bit
    Firefox 25.0 (cache cleared)

    I have the exact same sort of stupid loop:
        https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
            Install Now
        http://www.adobe.com
    on 2 different versions of MacOS X: 10.6.8, 10.8.3.
    It looks like the Adobe web server is using an URL redirect which is much too acrobatic.

  • Flash site with Back Button and Favorites enabled

    I've search everywhere I can think and can't find the answer I need.
    I want the user to be able to bookmark or use a back button in internet explorer or any internet browser on a 100% flash-based site.
    For Example: http://www.mountaindewgamefuel.com/
    When you click on any of the link on the top menu, you will be re-directed to http://www.mountaindewgamefuel.com/#/signin if you're not signed in, but you stay on the same page, just the flash changes.
    And if you type something in the url after the /#/, like adobe: http://www.mountaindewgamefuel.com/#/adobe
    It goes and plays the transisiton and goes to a blank window with section.name as the title of that window, since "adobe" doesn't exsist.
    So my question is, How do I make this work Like Pepsi did? Thanks.

    KB956196's list of "products that this article applies to" includes IE6-10,
    but not IE11,
    and it also does not include Win8.1.
    The last review of that KB was Oct 15, 2013.
    Methinks MS should either
    update the article to include IE11, if appropriate, or
    create a new article that specifically applies to IE11.
    And perhaps TechNet Support folks could refrain from applying aged boilerplate answers that reference outdated and perhaps irrelevant KB articles, or explain knowledgably in their responses that, while the article appears to reference older versions, its
    steps are still appropriate to follow.
    I only mention this because, while there is a wealth of info and useful support at this site, everytime I look and try to specify what I'm using, inevitably and invariably more than half the hits on my query are for either outdated or totally irrelevant
    applications. Would that there were filter options (see Amazon searches, lefthand side of screen, where you can narrow things down considerably).
    I'll shut up now.

  • Flash movies with play button don't work

    I have the 'simple' problem that everytime I see a "play" button on a web page with flash content, clicking on it won't start the movie.  However, e.g. YouTube movies work fine. So it seems it's just movies that do not start automatically after clicking on a link.
    Also, checking the flash player e.g. at the Adobe site (http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html), tells me in a flash box I have the latest flash player installed, and I see the  flash movie 'flash player is running on your system' with the red ball rolling in it.
    I have the same problem for both google Chrome and for IE.
    I still have an old Dell Inspiron 6000 notebook with Win XP (latest updates) and ATI mobility Radeon X300 graphics chip, for which I also installed the latest available drivers.
    Experimenting with Flash Player settings was unsuccessful so far (e.g. no hardware acceleration, clearing all internet data in the Flash Player global settings tool).
    My desktop (also with Win XP and with the same browsers and Flash Players/Flash Plugins installed works fine...).
    I also know that it worked at an earlier time with this NB...
    I managed to run the movie with a Linux Live CD but that is not what I want to do every time...
    Any idea is highly appreciated.....

    Hi BalusC, i have saved the datamodel (a ArrayList) in SessionBean. It can't be null. The rows of table display correct. I don't understand, why functions buttons with ObjectArrayDataProvider, but not with ObjectListDataProvider?

  • How to make a video stop in flash through an external button

    Hi everyone!
    I have a little problem: I made a flash site with its
    different sections, the first of which has a movie clip which is a
    "VideoPlaylist". So inside this movie clip I have the player and
    the videos sequenced one after the other in a TileList component.
    The problem is:
    When I go to a different page, the video in the first page
    continues to play and so you can still hear the sound, AND WHICH IS
    WORSE, when you click the button to return to the first page, the
    video starts again with the sound of the previous time still
    rolling.
    The solution would be, I suppose, when clicking to any of the
    buttons that link to another section of the flash document, add
    some action script to make the video stop (having in mind that the
    video player is inside a movie clip).
    I don't know action script, just the navigation basics
    necessary for the sections. I did the videoplaylist following this
    tutorial:
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/video_playlist.html
    Can anyone help me, please!!

    You better ask in the Flash forum; this is the Flash Player forum.

  • How can I make a flash user interface with buttons to open up and navigate other flash files?

    Hello I would like to make a user interface that will serve as a tool to load and unload other flash materials like a slideshow. I would like to make a kind of slideshow with Flash that opens up other flash files which could be around 10-15 slides (frames) long each. I would want to ask if there is any way to make a link between navigation and other slides easily. And if there are ways, what action codes should I use for this. Thank you very much.

    All you need to do is load a swf into the main swf and target it with whatever controls you intend.  If you are using AS3 then you could use the Loader class to load the swf and then target the Loader.content with your control buttons.

  • Black outline appeared after accidental button mashing.

    After accidentally button mashing my keyboard a black outline now appears over anything that pressing "tab" and anything I type in or click on. It happens all over the computer not just Safari, also while scrolling it does not stay with the typing box it says in the same place on screen. While trying to fix it my Apple Menu now has the following options -Force Quit... -Force Quit Safari -Restart... -Restart -Shut Down... -Shut Down -Log Out __... -Log Out __. Also Under Safari and File -Private Browsing... -Private Browsing -Close Window -Close Window -Close All Windows -Close All Windows.

    You've turned Voice Over on. Command F5 will turn it off. (Or open the System Preferences and look for the Accessibility tab - last in the third row I think)

  • SMS Flash appeared to iPhone 5

    Hi, My wife had an (I quess it is) Flash SMS in her iPhone 5 this morning. Unfortunately I did not take a photo of it but it was something like "Gongratulations - you have won xxxxxxx$" Text was longer and it had an address and an e-mail with it.
    The thing that worries me - is that there were only one button below the message "OK".
    Pressing the home button - did not this message disappear nor did the closing and opening the display again. I pressed the OK and the message disappeared.
    Is there a possibility that the phone was hijacked?
    Phone is running with ios7 with 7.0.2 upgrade.

    Thank you for you quick respond. As I said - there was only one button to be pressed - which I did. That was the OK button. I do not know if that was a link of some kind. Anyway the message disappeared.
    I'm an ICT reseller myself and do know something about what can be done and what not.
    I could have tried to boot the phone but I did not this time. That regret's me.
    I did change the Appstore password as we have the same account just in case.
    Would be interested to see/hear if someone else has received similar message.
    I tried to google this but did not find any similar - not from the conversations or pictures.
