Flash content shows lines

I've inserted a flash animation in dreamweaver but it is
showing a white line on the top and left sides and the animation
image has lost it's frame line on the bottom and right side. First
time inserting flash content and unable to figure out what I've
done wrong.

Firefox 11 beta is having issues loading Flash and HTML content, shows plain text instead of images

I'm not sure what is causing the problem but it has been happening since beta 10 and now its also in beta 11. Randomly when I load any web page the page is displayed in plain text leaving all the HTML or flash content blank. Yes I have the most recent version of flash installed along with Java just in case it was looking for that mess as well. Sometimes the pages load fine, and sometimes they don't, it's like playing lotto with the internet. The only fix I know of is to either keep refreshing the page and "hope" it catches it on the reload, or closing Firefox and running CCleaner. Some times FF will load some of the visual data and leave gaps but usually its just basic text mode. I'm at a loss as to whether the problem is from Firefox or my ISP being a douche, either way its annoying that Firefox is not showing internet pages like it used to.
Hate to see it happening but it looks like Firefox is on its way to being just another Internet Explorer clone (failure). Should have stayed with your original team, all the new folks you have hired are really mucking up the whole project and its goal of a free and open internet. Not to mention writing bad code and costing you money and more importantly the user base.
(Update, now it's not doing it go figure, but I'm sure it will do it again at some point, perhaps its not Firefox and something else, I'll keep my eye on it and try to report any findings)

If you use extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extension) like <i>Adblock Plus</i> or <i>NoScript</i> or <i>Flash Block</i> that can block content then make sure that such extensions aren't blocking content.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Flash content does not show when playing from server

http://www.talkingboxmedia.com/demo/SWW-Final-C3/about/about.htm
For some reason,...the flash content that we are using on
this site shows
fine locally on this page,...but not when viewing it from the
server.....
If you click on history, under about,.or on the home page,
you can see that
the image-player works on that page,..from the server,.....
If anyone has an idea of what might be happening,..even just
a
clue,...thanks...

Dream Weaver CS 5.5 not showing Flash/Vimeo/JW player and other Flash content local

Hi,
I have just installed WebPremium CS 5.5 and when I look locally through XAMPP at a web site in any browser, no Vimeo/JW players or Flash content
are showed. Flash is installed!!! The rest of the site is visible.
Only in "Live View" I can see everything as normal in dream weaver CS 5.5, but not in any browser.
When I look at the same site local in DW CS4 all looks fine.
Have no clue how this is possible. All suggestions are much very appreciated!!
Thanks! David

Is XAMP configured to serve up SWF or FLV file formats correctly? Check your XAMP MIME-type settings.

Flash contente not showing on SOME sites

I installed version 11.5.502.146 and since then I sometimes get web sites not SHOWING their flash content. I get sound, interactivity but no image.
What is weird is that it works on other websites / contents.
Example:
Not Working:
http://www.behr.com/Behr/home#
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer.html
Working
http://www.adobe.com/swf/software/flash/about/flashAbout_info_small.swf
http://www.flashgames247.com/play/16065.html
http://www.gameshot.org/?id=5150

Could you try installing our 11.6 beta to see if that makes a difference?

Cannot play Flash content in IE7

When I navigate IE7 to any site (including adobe.com) that
has Flash content, I get a message saying I need to enable
javascript (it is) and/or upgrade my Flash player. I am running
Vista, and this worked until sometime in the last week or so.
Flash content does run on this machine inside Firefox 3.0.1,
but IE7 appears to be dead.
The error message I get is "Error in loading DLL". It appears
to pop up when the javascript code is trying to load or access the
flash content.
I tried installing the Flash Player 9.0.124 using the web
site - no luck.
I tried uninstalling (clean), rebooting, then installing from
the web site - no luck.
I tried uninstalling (clean), rebooting, then used the manual
installer (Install Flash Player 9 AX) - no luck.
I tried uninstalling (clean), rebooting, then used the manual
installer (FlashUtil9f) - no luck.
I tried running reset_minimal.cmd (per instructions) - no
luck.
I tried disabling my AV (Kaspersky) while repeating all of
the above - no luck.
I tried running sfc /scannow but it reports no errors.
I tried the Tools/Internet Options/Advanced/Reset to "reset"
IE to its defaults - no luck.
I am really, really stumped on this one. What should I do
next?

BWolfe, dougclutter, and others with Doug's problem:
BWolfe, I'm truly amazed that dougclutter and others have had
this very specific and real problem for so long, and Adobe hasn't
lifted a finger to cure it. I'm stunned. I've been plagued with
this thing for at least 3 months now, and have been all over the
net looking for a remedy, after finding absolutely no help from
Adobe.
Here's what my symptoms are:
IE with Flash works in all accounts but mine.
Latest Adobe Flash player (10) is properly installed. Flash
content will play on IE8 in anyone's User Account on this machine
but mine. The only way flash content will play in my user account
is if it is started as "Run As Administrator". Can actually run 2
instances of IE side by side, one started normally, the other
started as "Run as Administrator". Oprah, U Tube, etc., will run
flash content in the latter window, but won't in the former. Flash
errors (in IE7} are something to the effect, "Can't run DLL", with
line number reference, etc. No help from Adobe, HP (my machine
manufacturer) or Microsoft without paying them a bundle. Just
updated IE7 to 8, problem unchanged.
Elaboratiing:
When right clicking on where Flash Player is supposed to be,
then clicking the "about Adobe Flash... ", the browser is sent to:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/
When clicking on the error message at the bottom of the
browser, the following error message is displayed. (This was
copied, which Vista gives you the opportunity to do, then pasted
here.)

Flash content DOES play with Adobe Flash 10 in my user
account with Apple Safari browser when started normally, just not
with IE8 browser. However, the IE8 browser does play Flash content
in any and every other user account.
BWolfe, instead of telling us about proper Adobe procedures
for reporting and troubleshooting these things, how about you
forward this to someone who can tell us how to fix this thing! I,
like dougclutter and others, have been thru the entire Adobe Flash
Player troubleshooting guide, carried out every suggestion there
exactly, to no avail. I can show you at least 3 other instances of
different folks with this same problem. And, as I think I've seen
elsewhere in this thread, and tried myself, Adobe certainly doesn't
make it easy to report non-paying customer problems, as with Flash
Player.
It's high time Adobe gets with at least one of us to help
diagnose and cure this problem, and then adds the info to their
troubleshooting guide, or else fix it in the application if
possible. Whether the problem is in the app, or do to interaction
with Vista and possibly XP, you guys need to look into this thing.
I, for one, would be more than happy to help you 'shoot this thing,
I am and engineer and have been computing since the DOS days.
Bewildered,
Dave

Why is my flash content not working on my dreamweaver created html site?

This is a problem that's happening on my website I'm creating. I created a quick test website to show you the problem on the fourm. It's the same problem, and if you can provide the solution to this test website I can apply it to my main website.
Test website on server:
test331754952.net23.net
What I did:
-launched flash
-typed "test" and made it spin 360 degrees
-published swf
-launched dreamweaver
-created a site
-moved swf to site folder
-saved a html file to the site folder
-in dreamweaver, went to insert, media, swf, then selected the swf I made
-it inserted the swf, creating a gray placeholder for it
-re-saved the html document, at which point dreamweaver created a folder named script and 2 files, an swf, and a javascript file
Site Directory:
Scripts Sub-Directory:
What happens:
-when I launch the swf on my machine, it plays fine
-when I open the swf directly on the test website on the server, it plays fine
-when I open the html with the embended swf on the test website on the server, it shows a gray box, then goes white
-In dreamweaver, when I go to preview in browser and choose internet explorer, it tells me I don't have new flashplayer(I do: flashplayer 11)
Ie also pokes up a box at the bottom that says its not allowing content. When I click allow content, it creates a gray box
-In dreamweaver, when I go to preview in borwser and choose google chrome, it tells me flash player has stopped a potentionally unsafe operation. When I close this dialog box, it gives me a gray box where my swf should be embeded.
-I've tried changing global flash secuirty setting and it does nothing
-I've tried visiting the test website on multiple computers in my household to no avail
-I've tried having friends visit the site on their computer at their house to no avail
-I did't touch the code on this test website-the code is exactly what dreamweaver generated

Can someone please help! I've looked and tried prety much everything. If you can provide a solution I would GREATLY apreciate it!

There is no Flash player version 15... as in your code:
<param name="swfversion" value="15.0.0.0" />
For some reason Adobe thought it would be a good idea to target a Flash player version (15) as default.....which may be out a couple years in the future. Go figure!!!
If you don't like player version 9, change to 10 or 11.... just not 15 (yet).

Hi, Guys!!
And you have some right cosmic_hippo , Why?
Well think that the real problem it's something between Firefox and Flash content...
because if i use Safari and i try make what i describe in the first post, i don't have any problem with the mouse settings.
Only Happens when i use Firefox...
Cheers.
Well the issue is still there...

Flash content distorts when scrolling and switching tabs.. since FF 13.0.1..

Before describing the issue
Please note from the System Details pane to this post that I have the latest flash, etc.
And Windows updates,are up to date.
==================================================
Issue: Scrolling distorts flash player window (Youtube, hulu, etc.)
Since: FF 13.0.1 update in June. (I posted on the issue under "badly scrambled images".)
Problem is still there with FF 14.0.1
This distortion happens:
# even with just starting the browser (so no bloated cache)
# even with just only one or two tabs open.
And since last week's update to FF 14.01, I have also detected:
Switching to the the tab with flash content will "imprint" the image from the my previous tab on to the flash player. I have to scroll or refresh to get the flash player to show its content.
FYI, none of these flash player problems occur with IE9.
The advise from a regular contributor was to turn off hardware acceleration, but these did not solve this issue.:(
Solutions suggesting disabling all the plugins etc. have not solved the problem either.
So if you can tell me some other way to solve this, I will appreciate it.
Thanks.

Sorry, it took me a while to give feedback for the suggestions you have given here.
(Please refer to sidebar on the original post for system details.)
I have reset the profile and updated the Nvidia driver. The version of FF is 14.0.1. But it still scrambles the pictures.
On top of scrambling the flash content when scrolling, it has additional problems:
As you can see from the attached image, another tab's content is showing on the youtube flash player. This happens when I have paused the video even for a short time.
I have a suspicion that the combination of Flash and Firefox does some weird things to graphic processing and memory.
(I realize that IE implements Flash differently, but they seem to have this right.)
I might just have to say goodbye to Firefox for a while.
Thanks.

Flash Content on the BBC in Safari 5.0.6

This question applies to my G5 2.5 gHz Tower running Safari 5.0.6. and an issue with Flash content on the BBC News website.
I often the BBC News website, and until a few months ago was able to play all of their video content. For some inexplicable reason their website now tells me I do not have the minimum Flash version (10.1.0) for playback. However, I do have the minimum Flash installation (v.10.1.102.64) as confirmed by the Adobe web site, and, seconded by the simple fact that Firefox 3.6.25 on the very same computer does play all the content at the BBC News web site and fails to generate any warnings.
So, Mac gurus and assorted experts who have earned my depest respect... what's going on? I have written to those in charge of the BBC News web site and indications are they probably didn't read my message past the subject line as they proceeded to ask me all the questions they'd have had answers to by reading my message in the first place. In short, they asked me to upgrade to Flash 10.1.0... so that route is not going solve my problem.
Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks...

BBC iPlayer relies on Adobe Air. AIR 1.5.3 is the last version of AIR that supports Mac PowerPC and Windows 2000. AIR applications that require AIR 2 or later cannot be installed or used on a Macintosh PowerPC or a computer running the Windows 2000 operating system.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/853/cpsid_85304.html
I am in the same boat. I cannot watch flash videos on the BBC website or on BBC iPlayer, although all other flash videos (YouTube for example) are fine.
For reasons that passeth all understanding, they work with the PPC version of Firefox, called TenFourFoxG5.app, once you have anabled plug-ins, as it does not natively support Flash.
You can download TenFourFoxG5 from here:
http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
Now for the intersting bit: TenFourFox, like Firefox, does not support most plug-ins. Unless you are prone to headaches (in which case don't) you can read about that here:
http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/PluginsNoLongerSupported
But there is a workaround!
Open TenFourFox and type in the address bar: about:config (no spaces) and click return. This gives you a warning that it might harm the application. Ignore that and click on 'I'll be careful, I promise' and you get the config file that you can edit - with great care.
Look/search (scroll down) for: tenfourfox.plugins.enabled
Set it to true. (Double click it to toggle it)
Now close TenFourFox, open it again, and Flash will now work, as it now uses the plug-ins that Safari has stored.
I am using Flash 10.1.102.64 in TenFourFox and it works just fine.

IE8 Error when opening Pop-up with Flash Content

I am running into a problem creating a webpage. I am very new to AS3 and not quite a novice at Dw CS3. I have audio files and flash content that is downloadable from my page. The audio is made available by clicking on a flash button that links to an mp3 or wav file. The player then opens and plays the file. I also created some flash animations that are accessed by flash buttons I also created and put on my webpage. I added scripting (AS3) for those buttons that defines a pop-up window size and points to an html page to put into the pop-up window. I'm really not sure if this script is the most efficient. It probably isn't. The script is below: (Note: I could not paste it in so I retyped it. Don't know why, but the script works even though there might be syntax errors below.)
      //define variable "jscommand" that has URL to open and pop-up window parameters
var jscommand:String="window.open('Multiplication.html,'miniwindow','height=440,width=605,toolbar=yes,scrollbar=no');";
      //define variable "openflashURL" which runs "jscommand"
var openflashURL:URLRequest("javascript"+jscommand+"void(0);");
      //define function "openflashdown" that initiates URL request
function openflashdown(Event:MouseEvent):void{
NavigateToURL(openflashURL,"_self"};
      //define button listener
Mult_FlashPlayer_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,openflashdown);
The problem is as follows: When I click on the flash buttons that use the above script, I get a pop-up window with the .swf in it and everything runs fine. Next, when I click on an audio button, the mp3 file downloads and the player (Real) begins to play it. But if I try to open up the flash animation again I get this error message from IE8 "Unspecified Error Internet Explorer cannot download".
I tried to find anwsers on-line and I found another person with a similar problem. Their solution was to take the javascript code out of the flash button coding and put it in the html page directly. I took the first line on code in the above and put it in the html code. Dw did not recognize it as code but as text. I don't know where to go from here. Does anyone know what to do? I'm a beginner so please be as clear as you can be.

Try uninstalling your sound card driver in Device Manager and reboot your PC.

Firefox closes on websites with Flash content

I have been experiencing this problem after the last couple of updates. I'm currently running 3.6.6. On nearly every site that runs Adobe Flash content, the content loads to the point that I know it will work, but Firefox stops loading the content, freezes, and then closes with no error messages. I reopen it and it asks for a session restore, but only about half of the time. The other half, it restores the tabs to about 10 seconds before the crash. I would open Speedtest.net, for example, it would load the player to when the blue line appears in the bottom, and then the loading wheel in the tab would freeze. After that, it closes. It has happened every time I opened that website. It would happen on other site with flash games as well.
I have reinstalled Adobe Flash by uninstalling and then reinstalling. I have also manually upgraded Firefox again. None of these have fixed the problem.

Open up computer case, unplug and take out the processor fan cooler and wipe out all the dust, speccially in the heatsink, with a soft little brush and compressed air spray (also check power supply fan). I discovered this solution after weeks of trying all software related recommended steps and nothing worked, adobe flash player was still crashing in firefox, chrome and opera even after completely uninstalling flash and installing latest version 10.2.152.26 of the plugin. I realized this was the problem when pc started to crash unexepectedly when not playing flash videos. So, EUREKA, that did the trick for me. Hope it does for you.

Flash content in a PDF question

Hi,
I have embeded a SWF into a PDF using InDesign CS3 and Acrobat Pro 8.1.7. The SWF displays and plays fine, I was able to set the psoter image in Acrobat and I set the border opion to no border. The only problem is that when a user clicks on the swf in the PDF to make it play a selection box outlines the the flash content on the page, you have to click off the page of the pdf to make it disapear. Is there a way to make this selection box invisible so that it never appears while a user is viewing the PDF?
Thanks in advance for any help on this.

There are two ways to do it. One is complicated, but easy for anyone to learn. The other requires Javascript, which I know nothing about.
First, you don't want to have the movie played by double-clicking the field. That will cause the focus to stay on the movie which is the line you don't like.
So set the movie to be hidden.
Next, draw a button and set it to be the trigger that plays the movie.
Depending on your layout, you can stop here. The button will play the movie and then when the movie is over focus is gone.
But, if you want a poster of the movie on the page, you can capture a frame and save it as a PDF. Then use the Options of the Button Properties to assign an icon to the button. That will allow you to import the captured frame.
The result will look like you clicked the movie to play it, but it was really a button.

Win8.1/Chrome 64bit: NPAPI Flash Player crashes on every page with Flash content

Hi,
Chrome 64bit (beta+) crashes on Win8.1 64bit, if I use the NPAPI Flash Player (v15 beta or v14 stable) and open a website with Flash content.
More details here:
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=402262

Turning off NPAPI in Chrome 64-bit will be a very bad move. I'm using a Windows 7 Setup, with a Core2Quad 65 nm CPU and a pathetic Geforce GT 8500 GPU that is basically worthless. PPAPI flash betas are available as a standalone now at this point, but I have done lots of side by side comparisons, and the PPAPI plugin is absolute garbage compared to the far superior Netscape architecture based plugin. I'm not the only one saying that. I have found loads of forums, and instruction videos online to fix Chrome video playback on youtube for instance. I have to install "Magic Actions for Youtube" addon for chrome so that I can disable HTML5. then I have to go into the plugins menu on chrome and disable pepper flash. I keep the 64 bit flash betas regularly updated this way, and I am getting peak performance. Once in a blue moon it will crash, but I think that is Google's fault. HTML5 should not be the default option in youtube. Compared to Flash, it does not have great GPU acceleration ability, and HTML5 in 64-bit doesn't even perform superior to 32 bit web browsers, where as 64 bit flash is a leap forward, as long as it's the NPAPI version, that is. Problems I have with the HTML5 and also Pepperflash are very similar. The audio is out of sync with video, and the cpu is maxed out from memory leaking. I'm skipping frames and seeing glitches left and right. The seek functions in pepperflash never work right on youtube, you have to click an inch before wherever you want the video to play. On and on. Pepper flash has audio crackle. You can't get rid of the crackle from pepper flash or HTML 5. Yet, with NPAPI 64 bit flash beta in 64 bit chrome canary it plays PERFECTLY. once in a while I have it crash, which i think is the fault of the fact that I have to use an add on to force off HTML5. Why would I want html5, when flash NPAPI 64 bit produces superior picture quality on all quality settings. It's better in every conceivable way. Shame on Google for not putting more care into 64-bit flash on 64-bit Chrome. It couldn't possibly be a more important deal! You can tell pepperflash and HTML 5.0 are an afterthought. It's only youtube playback quality. why would that matter to google? OMG...
While I'm at it, I have one other issue that blows my mind. Adding command line flags in Chrome 64-bit (Canary) in Windows. Why do we have to add them through a shortcut in the "target" line? The target line runs out of space after 3 or 4 commands! I wish they would update Chrome Canary to allow for unlimited command lines to be added. It should be an option to add Command Lines on the About:Flags screen. I am so disappointed in these two glaring issues. It keeps me up at night.
