Flash CC 2014 publisher for Flash player 8 or below?

I have Pro CC 2014 and need to publish for flash 8 or below.... when I tried to get the older player files, my newer computer can not even open them.  Suggestions? Work arounds?  The only think I can think of at this point is I THINK I have CS6 still installed on my older macbook pro....
TIA!!!!

Your best bet will be to fall back to using CS6 when you run into something that CC was not made to handle.

  • Publishing for flash player 9

    How do I publish for flash player 9? using macromedia mx
    2004

    you simply cant until flash 9 (authoring tool) comes out. MX
    2004 was developed in 2004 - we are
    almost in 2007 and flash 9 player has been released - but for
    now it is to penetrate the market and
    insure backward compatability - none of us can author any
    flash 9 content until the flash 9 tool is
    released - what are you wanting to do in flash 9 that cant be
    done in flash 8? nobody is developing
    for flash 9 right now because it doesnt exist as a tool yet.

  • HELP: Flash CS5, can't publish for flash player 4

    Hello!
    I want to create a flash ad for google AdWords using Flash CS5.
    according to the guidelines (http://adwords.google.com/support/aw/bin/static.py?hl=en&page=guide.cs&guide=1308145&topic =1310862&answer=176108&rd=2) I am required to publish for flash player 4:
    Flash versions: All Flash ads must be published for Flash Player version 4-10.
    Flash CS5 doesn't offer me to target flash player 4 in the publish settings!
    how to resolve that issue?
    Thanks!

    I googled it! A funny thing is:
    http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/AdWords/thread?tid=262eb148dc312b92&hl=en
    Flash versions: All Flash ads must be published for Flash Player version 4-10.
    It include the version 10 too right? then why do you go for flash 4?
    Anyway, I will reply you if I come across a solution.

  • Dynamic text not displaying when publishing for flash 8

    This dynamic text works fine when the movie is published for
    flash 7, but when i export for the flash 8 player it seems to be
    invisible. Is there any obvious reason for this happenning?
    thanks
    jon

    Ok, thanks, looks like you've pointed me in the right
    direction. I havent fixed it yet though. Heres where i am at:
    eval(theTarget+".buttonPrime").tex.embedFonts = false;
    now i can see my text. of course its using a default font.
    var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
    my_fmt.font = "arial14b";
    eval(theTarget+".buttonPrime").tex.embedFonts = true;
    eval(theTarget+".buttonPrime").tex.text = "wasssup?";
    eval(theTarget+".buttonPrime").tex.setTextFormat = my_fmt;
    this isnt working. I have added a font object to the library
    and linked it for actionscript using the monkier "arial14b".
    however my text is quite invisible. i have checcked, 'export in
    first frame' for the font object i even tried it with this
    deselected. i have deselected the embed font option on the text
    feild itself. that doesnt work either (unless i dont try to set the
    text format, so long as i accept a default font, its fine).
    so err, help?
    confused
    jon
    ps further to this is have discovered more about this strange
    behaviour. i can set the text to a different string, provided i do
    not try to embed the font in any way. if i set the font to embed, i
    can have the text display with the correct font, until i change the
    text. then it dissappears. also i cannot seem to affect properties
    like font size by means of my TextFormat object. the textFormat
    object also does not seem to affect the font of the text.
    in short, when exporting for flash 8, i cannot seem to
    successfully embed fonts for dynamic text. the only thigs i have
    gotten to work are: static text (or a dynamic text feild with
    unchanged text) with an embedded font, or dynamic text with a
    default font.

  • Open Flash CC 2014 file in Flash CS5 (was: hello)

    is there anyway to open flash cc 2014 file in flash cs5 and work on the files

    Flash CS5.5 lets you open any newer file. But you can save down to older versions (back to CS5) with CS6 if you have access to it. Flash CC does not give you the option to save down.

  • Publish for Flash Player 11, video events not working

    I have a Flash project that I'm publishing in Flash Player 11 in hopes having better animation results with Flash Player 11's better rendering capabilites.
    However, my AS3 Video Events are now throwing errors. These two Event listeners throw the error.
    "Access of possibly undefined property COMPLETE through a reference with static type Class"
    "Access of possibly undefined property PLAYING_STATE_ENTERED through a reference with static type Class."
    videoOverlay_mc.video_mc.addEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE, fnc_endOfVideo)
    videoOverlay_mc.video_mc.addEventListener(VideoEvent.PLAYING_STATE_ENTERED, fnc_videoStart);
    If I publish as Flash Player 10.x the events & listeners work fine.
    I've been trying to find documentation on Flash Player 11 and what video events to use. Does anyone know where I can find this?
    The API's still shows the videoEvents, http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/fl/video/VideoEvent.htm l
    Thanks in advance for your reply,
    Zak

    Kglad,
    My apologies. I rushed my reply.
    This worked:
    videoOverlay_mc.video_mc.addEventListener(fl.video.VideoEvent.COMPLETE, fnc_endOfVideo);
    videoOverlay_mc.video_mc.addEventListener(fl.video.VideoEvent.PLAYING_STATE_ENTERED, fnc_videoStart);
    function fnc_videoStart(evt:fl.video.VideoEvent):void {
    function fnc_endOfVideo(evt:fl.video.VideoEvent):void {
    I had to put the full event path in the function parameter as well otherwise I got a "Ambiguous reference to VideoEvent compile error".
    Thanks a lot for your help.

  • Flash CC 2014 publishing Adobe AIR 17 - use captive or shared runtime?

    I developed an app using Flash CC 2014, In IOS I had to upgrade to the builder and I got the function to work, but now I have the same app and need to develop for Android. I created a separate fla and did the following
    Used Android 17.0.0.96
    added the general info
    created the p12 now I have the option to choose captive or shared runtime. I get warnings about each when I publish so I have to publish this app to GooglePlay and need to know the procedure as I'm on a Mac and I see procedures involving code when doing this on a windows machine.
    Can someone help me out here?
    R

    I would recommend to use "Captive".
    Difference is pretty simple...
    Shared Basically means that it compiles the "apk" without the Adobe AIR runtime, resulting in a smaller file size apk but REQUIRES users to have the "Adobe AIR App" installed.
    Captive means that it compiles the "apk" with the Adobe AIR runtime, resulting in a larger file size apk but DOES NOT REQUIRE users to have the "Adobe AIR App" installed.
    If you want to Guarantee everyone can run your app, use captive. If you want to rely on users to hope the have the correct version of AIR installed to view your app, use Shared.

  • Can Flash Pro CC publish to flash player 9??

    Hi
    It is possible to publish to flash player 9 in Flash CC. Most of the flash ads still require flash player 9 as the highest version to publish for.
    thanks
    Andrew

    Sorry to harp on the same problem. Just upgraded to CC and finding this problem also. I've read thru everything and I am having the error too. It seems like I need to put the file into this path
    /Applications/Adobe Flash CC/Adobe Flash CC.app/Contents/Common/Configuration/ActionScript 3.0/FP9/playerglobal.swc
    But the problem is, I don't have this path!! Even when I view all of my hidden folders. I get to Adobe Flash CC.app and its not there.
    The error I'm getting in Flash is
    Warning: 5004: The file '/Applications/Adobe Flash CC/Adobe Flash CC.app/Contents/Common/Configuration/ActionScript 3.0/FP9/playerglobal.swc', which is required for typechecking ActionScript 3.0, could not be found. You may need to reinstall Flash.
    Do I really need to reinstall??

  • Flash Professional Help | Publishing for Adobe AIR for desktop

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash/using/publishing-adobe-air-desktop.html

    This page is extremely helpful. Thank you!
    With the help of this page, I've managed to figure out how to do most of what I need to do, however, I'm having troubles creating a Mac and Linux installer for my application. So far, I have only been able to create a Windows installer (.exe). In the "general" tab, the only options I have in "output as" are "AIR package", "Windows Installer" and "Application with runtime embedded".
    I am using Adobe Flash Professional CS 6 and am using a Windows 7 computer.

  • Help! need to make flash 5 script work for flash 8

    hey guys,
    I have a menu bar slider that was created in flash 5 - but of
    course once I bring into flash 8 the action script ceases to work
    correctly.
    its probably very quick fix, but im a bit lost here, tried
    everything.
    anyone able to quickly skim over my code and tell me whats
    wrong? and how to update it to flash 8?
    heres the FLA
    http://www.designedmemory.com/slide.fla
    really have to figure this out ASAP -
    best,
    Matthew

    well this is a mess, and I don't have the time like I thought
    I would, sorry.. Here are the basics though that should get you
    through it. You'll have to change some variable names, because
    there are some names that are reserved, like, new.
    /:variableName should be _root.variableName, ../variableName
    should _parent.variableName, movieClip:property should be
    movieClip.property and so on

  • Swf increase size mystery publishing into Flash 8 and Flash CS4

    Hello,
    i discovered recently that a swf build with Flash 8 IDE, published for Flash Player 8 get a different size when published with Flash CS4 IDE.
    You can reproduce that effect with all sort of swf.
    I did a report for each publish (same .fla into Flash 8 IDE and Flash CS4 IDE)
    The result was : all vector graphics, all fonts, all bitmaps, all actionscript code increased
    From test.fla, i did one key frame with :
    - a dynamic TextField with some simple chars in it = "Test Chars",
    - a simple shape with brush tool
    - and one movieclip with an ordinary circle
    Size report from Flash 8 :
    test.swf Rapport sur l'animation

    Does somebody knows something about this strange phenomen ?

    Didn't look at the file size of the FLA, just the SWF as I didn't even necessarily resave the CS4 as CS6. No edits were made, I tried it with a simple open and publish just to make sure I wasn't doing anything to change the file and the resulting file was heavier (kb).
    I looked through the size reports and saw that while image compression was better in the CS6 version, the fonts were all heavier than they were in the CS4 version and this put it over the 40kb limit.

  • Why not support Flash CC 2014 player 10.01 and older?

    Hello, why not support Flash CC 2014 player 10.01 It should count on the fact that it will also create banners for Google. Install old version of CS6 is not a good way. Do something about it.
    Google say: Important
    Currently only AdWords Supports Adobe Flash Player versions 4 through 1.10 If your ad uses any other version (such as 10.2), it can not be uploaded.
    What to do?

    Hi,
    You may want to add the older player targets by following the steps described at Adding Flash Player 11 support to Flash Pro CS5 and CS5.5

  • Cannot view Flash 8 file online with Flash 7 Player

    I have content on the site made in both flash player 7 and 8
    (simple text animation). The newer content which is just a text
    animation is not showing up for my users who are using flash player
    7 (it loads blank/white, and you can right click to play/loop etc -
    but it doesnt do anything), while it shows up fine for those using
    flash player 8. Im sure they could install player 8, but why would
    this not work on player 7? Id rather it stay backward compatible.
    Am I doing something wrong?
    Any problems with this, fixes or advice?
    Thanks!

    Well .. DERRRRRR
    Of course Flash 8 content will not show in Flash Player 7.
    If you want to support Flash Player 7, then you need to
    publish for Flash
    Player 7 (or earlier).
    This is called common sense.
