Flash CS4 I need help...

OK, so...I tried to download a trial of Flash CS4 on my parent's laptop. I got as far as saving the AkamaiDownloadManagerInstaller to the computer's desktop, but when I click on the link (or whatever) it says "a program needs your permission to continue." I clicked "Continue," and it shows a loading bar for just a split second, but then goes away. Uh...I don't know much about computers, so please try to use *small words* when telling me what to do. My parents have a Toshiba Windows 7 (I think) Laptop.
Thanks for your help
Mr. Snickers

i recently downloaded trails of flash cs4 and web premium package cs4 (took a day to download at high speed starbuck's internet). couldnt get the setup.exe to work or the uninstaller to work. surfing tech support over next couple weeks to try various agents was useless and expensive until i finally reached someone with useful info. all the agents had foriegn accents and read from scripts and web support pages until yesterday, when i reached a guy who told me two things i'll report to various forums addressing this same issue:
1. download windows uninstaller program from their website (google: windows ininstaller). this program is different from the one that doesnt work in the programs and features area of control panel when you try to uninstall adobe products from there.
2. windows explorer 8, the newest version, DOES NOT download adobe softare properly and leaves things out, causing all sorts of issues including the setup.exe program not working. download firefox browser from mozella (google: firefox) and use it for all adobe downloads. apparently the old windows explorer 7 will work, but if you already have explorer 8 installed its easiest to just use firefox.
i'm spending the next couple days downloading the 4.14 G web premium trail with firefox and will report if this works.

Flash CS4 Quiz Template: Help Needed

My organization uses the Flash CS4 quiz template that is included within the eLearning suite. Everything works great. The quiz loads on the LMS, it gives learners' their scores, etc. The issue we're having is after the score is recorded within the LMS.
If a user fails the quiz, the LMS marks the quiz as 'Completed/Failed'. The LMS (Inquisic EX), then, moves the failed quiz into the 'Completed Courses' tab. I understand why it does this because the 'Completed' mark given refers to the learner having gone through all of the pages within the quiz; however, the learner failed the quiz. If the learner goes back into the quiz and passes it the second time around, the LMS continues to state 'Completed/Failed'.
Does anyone know why this would happen? Are there SCORM settings we ought to change within the source code provided by Adobe?
I really appreciate your help!!

I think this is what I'm having trouble with, did you figure
it out? I need help making checkbox text have multiple
lines.

I really don't know where to start and any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance.

Flash Player is causing my Web Pages to flash like crazy Need help!

I need help, I'm running a computer with Windows 98 4.10.1998
and Running Internet Explorer ver. 6.0.2800.1106IC
I had some problems I have fix eveything but when I got to a
web page it wants
to install and run flash player if I do Install and run, all
my web pages flash
like crazy every clickable icon or line flash the screen
makes it flicker so hard
it is enough to give you a headache. Ad boxes on the pages
flash like a lighting
strorm. How do I fix this? I never had this before, I ran the
flash player debug file
that made no change. Help!

Already checked the Event Viewer. The only thing I could find is this critical level event
The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.
This only happens when I am running a flash video in IE10. In Chrome everything works fine. I downgraded flash player to 11.4 but with no luck.
From the event viewer, the reboots started from sometime in september.(this is my parents' pc)
I think I found the problem. I changed my video card, a 9600GT, a few months ago with a GT630. I switched back to the 9600GT, and it looks like the issue is not happening any more. But it's still verry ackward for the issue to happen only on IE10.
I'm still testing to be sure that the video card is the problem.

Flash Novice Really Needs Help

I am just trying to write a small actionscript in Flash CS4 for a navigation button and I am really lost.
I turned Script Assist and can not figure out even the first line nor can I turn Script Assist off. Should I be using Script Assist and, if not, how do I deactivate it so that I can type directly into the text box?
Thank you in advance.
George B.

Not quite there yet. This is the script:
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,f);
function f(e:Event){
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(home.html));
I have added the Instance Name of btn1 on the button Properties Tab. All I need it to do is to go to another HTML page in the same directory named home.html. That it is not doing so I am guessing I have the reference to this page incorrect.

CS4 Buttons - need help

I have a question....I saw on a website once (I wish I could
remember which site it was), flash buttons that were creatively
animated.
The button would appear just as text, but when you hovered
over it, an image would rise from behind it, then, when you moused
off, the image would go back down.
It did this for each of the buttons and I cannot figure out
how to get that to work, especially since in CS4 with AS3 you
cannot use AS on a button.
It's also really difficult to add a motion preset to a
button....can anyone help?
I've looked for tutorials on how to add a motion
script/preset to a button however, I'm not finding anything at all.
Am I making this more complicated than it needs to be?
Should I put the button inside a movie clip and animate it
that way? I'm not sure if that will work since I am trying to make
an image appear behind the button when it's in it's OVER state.
Is there an easier way for me to do this?
Thanks.

Whatever you do will require a movieclip playing a role
somewhere along the line. For the scenario you described where the
image slides out and back in, it is more likely entirely a
movieclip.
What you want to do is create a movieclip that has mouse
event listeners that cause it to go to different frames for the
different states of the 'button'. So in frame 1 you would have the
'button' in its normal state, and a rollover could send it to frame
2 where you have an animation movieclip play. Then, when you roll
out you send it to another frame containing the reverse animation
which sends it back to frame 1 as its last action.
I thought I best add that the 'button' is the movieclip
itself, there is no real button involved.

Flash CS5 Newbie - Need help adding URL link to animated banner

I apologize if this is a very basic question, but I am a newbie at designing in Flash. I have created a basic animation in Flash CS5 and I need to add a clickable URL link to it. I've tried a few tutorials that looked promising, but none of them solved my problem. I've tried a number of things including converting parts or all of the images to simple buttons or movies and linking them that way as well as typing in code for ActionScript 2 and 3, none of which were successful. The animation plays correctly when viewed in my browser, but when I click on it, the link does not work. I would prefer that the entire banner be clickable to take viewers to the linked website rather than using hyperlinked text. Also, when I open the Code Snippets window, it is empty, no matter what image or frame I've selected. Do I need to import code snippets from somewhere or am I simply going about things the wrong way? Any help is greatly appreciated!

It all depends whether you're decisively using AS2.0 or AS3.0 .
In the latter, you would need to use a URLRequest() method in conjunction with a navigateToUrl() call (not sure the exact syntax for navigate to Url, it might be a capitalized "URL" in the method but the request takes a String argument such as http://www.adobe.com)

Flash Game Problem Need Help! Action-Script 2.0

Im making a flash game its a sniper game btw and i am have a problem with after killing the target for it to go to the next frame.

if the top one doesnt work (the top one shouldnt have a time wait)
Thanks for all help
also please if you can find the problem itd be nice to know what it is

I will not download the .fla - maybe if you hosted the .swf I would view it.
to change frame use: gotoAndStop(<framenumber>);
(without the < >, just a number for the fram).
I recommend you use movieclips for buttons and place all code on the main timeline. For movieclips, give them an identifier name (bottom left int he properties box of the movieclip) then on the main timeline use:
movieclipName.onRelease = function(){
gotoAndStop(10);//change 10 to the frame you wish to go to. gotoAndPlay(10) plays from the frame.

Flash Video Player Need Help

Hello everyone I am hoping someone here can help me. I am going to school and I have an action scripting class. For my final project we have to make a flash video player with a custom skin to upload to our websites. We did something similar to this with our first project which we made a player where the movies where embedded in the file itself but this is supposed to be a youtube like flash player where we can call in the files from another source.
We kind of got pressed for time and were not able to go into detail with this project so the teacher gave us the code and I put it in exactly how it should be but im pretty sure i have something misplaced or I am missing a step. I get 8 different errors when I go to test the movie. and nothing works. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong or can you point me in the direction of a tutorial on this as I have been searching for tutorials on this with no luck.
Here is my Action Script 3.0 CODE:
import fl.video.FLVPlayback;
import fl.controls.List;
var vid:FLVPlayback = new FLVPlayback();
vid.source= "fashion.flv";
addChild(vid);
vid.skin="SkinOverPlayStopSeekMuteVol.swf";
vid.x=100;
vid.y=300;
vid.skinAutoHide="true";
vid.width=500;
vid.height=280;
var vidList:List = new List();
vidList.x= vid.x+10;
vidList.y= 200;
vidList.width=200;
vidList.height=100;
vidList.addItem({label:"Bathroom Behavior",data: "bathroom.flv"});
vidList.addItem({label:"Chase Scene",data: "chase.flv"});
vidList.addItem({label:"VMCAD Fashion Design Commercial",data: "fashion.flv"});
addChild(vidList);
vidList.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE,playVid);
function playVid(e:Event):void{
vid.source=e.target.selectedItem.data;
Here is a screenshot of the errors I am receiving.
Please help me
thanks

I don't know if what you posted is all that is in that as file, but you need to declare a package, then call the import statements, then declare the class name. Like this:
package {
     import flash.display.Sprite;
     import flash.events.Event;
     import fl.video.FLVPlayback;
     import fl.controls.List;
     public class Main extends Sprite {
          public function Main() {
               var vid:FLVPlayback = new FLVPlayback();
               vid.source= "fashion.flv";
               addChild(vid);
               vid.skin="SkinOverPlayStopSeekMuteVol.swf";
               vid.x=100;
               vid.y=300;
               vid.skinAutoHide="true";
               vid.width=500;
               vid.height=280;
               var vidList:List = new List();
               vidList.x= vid.x+10;
               vidList.y= 200;
               vidList.width=200;
               vidList.height=100;
               vidList.addItem({label:"Bathroom Behavior",data: "bathroom.flv"});
               vidList.addItem({label:"Chase Scene",data: "chase.flv"});
               vidList.addItem({label:"VMCAD Fashion Design Commercial",data: "fashion.flv"});
               addChild(vidList);
               vidList.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE,playVid);
          function playVid(e:Event):void{
               vid.source=e.target.selectedItem.data;
Then click on your stage in Flash, then open the properties window, and fill the Class text field with:   Main
Make sure the as file is saved in the same folder as the flv.

Flash recovery area, need help!

Hi! I have some problems with Flash Recovery Area. I use Oracle 10g.
So,
1) I tried to change Flash Recovery Area Size from 10 to 15 GB in Enterprise Manager, see: http://my.jetscreenshot.com/2677/20111129-mxmb-117kb
Applied changes and shutdown DB. After I started DB and see the Flash Recovery Area Size then I can see that it is old one - 10GB and free space is with "-" sign, see: http://my.jetscreenshot.com/2677/20111129-bwlw-101kb
What I am doing wrong?
2) Can You pleas explain, what to do step by step with example, how can I delete Flash Recovery files USING ENTERPRISE MANAGER, what steps I need to do? Because my HDD is almost full.
3) It is possible to delete Flash Recovery files automatic after some time? If Yes, please say how?
Hope for Your help, best regards, Debuger

1) Mybe I can't change recovery area size because there somewhere area size is limited to 10gb, because I do not understand why always after restart there is 10gb... :(You are missing something when you bounce, Make sure you have started with same SPFILE, You have to load the same PFILE/SPFILE when you performed changes.
2) How can I schedule a RMAN job to cleanup? Can You give me all necessary steps to do?You can schedule RMAN archive delete jobs.

Editing a value from a SWF in Flash CC. Need Help.

Hello!
I can use a little help. I have a small .SWF that I use as a graphic design app. There is a slider that goes from 0-500. I want to be able to increase the maximum to say 1000.
I have used Sothink SWF decompiler. I have found the one line that refers to the slider's variable.(it is AS3)
this.pointSlider.setSliderParams(3, 500, 100); It is in Action directory MAIN. I can't seem to edit the number within SWF Decompiler, so I exported it as an FLA.
What I've tried.
1) in text editor I've opened MAIN and changed the number.
How can I recompile this back to an SWF?
Or is there a way within the original SWF to just change the number?
I did DL the Adobe Flash CC trial. Opened the FLA, but nothing is really happening, just a white screen.
Can you please suggest how I can do this? A different program or approach?
Thanks in advance!
Alex

and
I'm brand new to Flash. Besides opening the .fla doc, do I need to anything for the other files associated with it? Everything decompiled into a folder?
On Publish I'm getting:
Warning: Source path "$(AppConfig)/ActionScript 3.0/Classes" does not resolve to a valid directory.
and
J:\worh folder\FLA\triangulator\Main.as, Line 598, Column 22

Flash web gallery NEED HELP

I have no clue how to program these flash galleries....My
site www.al-burke.com contains a flash web gallery that I purchased
online and I have been able to upload it to the site but its says
movie not loaded. I have all the neccessary files in place I
believe (gallery.xlm, main.html, main.swf) all under a folder. Can
anyone please help me out? Thanks

Does it work when you test it from your local drive? If it
does, but doesn't work when you post the files to the server, you
may not have uploaded all of the parts correctly. If it doesn't
work when testing from the files on your harddrive either, then
there is a linking issue - have you moved any of the files after
the gallery was created...? (If so, the links will be broken).
You also reference a file named "main.html" - this isn't the
name of the file that's posted - if you created a file named that,
then changed the name to index.html without updating the links when
prompted, that will also break the links...
Hope that helps...
