Flash CS6 doesn't work

Hello,
It has been a while since I worked with Flash, but once a year I have to edit a Flash file (with sponsors of a local event). Last summer I made the latest version of the file in Flash CS5. I've installed CS6 (the complete design&web premium package). Now I want to change the file that I made last year, but Flash CS6 doesn't work like it should. When I open the specific file, s small screen with the canvas is visible, I can't enlarge this screen, there are other windows available in the menu, but they won't show up when I activate them. I've tried to save the document as a CS5 file (I have a CS5 version on my laptop) but the file can't be opened (warning: this file has been created in Flash CS6).
When I try other menu-items, the program 'unexpectedly' stops.
In other words: I can't do anything anymore.
I've installed Flash CS6 again, but that doesn't solve the problem.
Is this a familiar issue? Can anyone help me?
Thanks

App created with Flash CS6 doesn't work on iOS6

Hi, I developed an iOS app with Flash CS6 and it works perfectly on iOS 5.1, but today I've upgraded my iPhone 4 to iOS 6 Beta for developers and my App doesn't work!! Apps developed with CS5.5 work well on iOS 6. How to fix it?! I tried to save in flash cs5.5 format and open it with CS5.5 to export it, but it doesn't export anything! Please give me a solution.

What does the Adobe test page say?
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

The latest version of Adobe Flash Player doesn't work on my Mac

The latest version of Adobe Flash Player doesn't work on my Mac?
What is the solution?

Download and install a version compatible to whatever cat flavor you have on the computer.

Maybe Flash 11 is too big and you need to stay on Flash 10.3

After update flash player doesn't work most of the time

Hi Folks!
Windows XP
IE 6
About 2 weeks ago I installed a flash player security update and ever since then flash player doesn't work most of the time. On most websites with embeded video all I see is an empty placeholder where the video is supposed to be.
If I go to a site like Youtube all is fine. However, if I go to a site that has embeded a Youtube video all I see is the empty placeholder where the video is supposed to be.
Some folks have recommended I uninstall and download and reinstall. The problem with this is that there isn't *anything* related to Abobe flash player in Add/Remove programs.
Not sure what to do about this (read: I'm totally lost!).
Here's a screencap of the empty placeholder:
http://i27.tinypic.com/2wrdttf.jpg

The standard warranty is for 12 months from the date of purchase, unless you bough AppleCare which would have extended it to 2 years.
If it's out of warranty, then you pay for repairs, and it's expensive. There are 3rd party repairers who are cheaper.
Did you try these?
The Five Rs.
As the previous poster said, it's more than likely a hardware issue, but there's no harm in trying the software fixes before you decide it needs repair.

HT5655 Flash still doesn't work with Safari.

I've done this repeatedly. Flash still doesn't work with Safari. It does work with Firefox and Chrome.
I deleted the Flash plugin from Library>Internet Plugins. That didn't solve the problem either.
What can I try next? Thanks.

Flash Player doesn't work after update

I'm using windows 7 with Firefox browser. I installed an update and now Flash Player doesn't work.
I've tried re-installing but it still doesn't work.
Can you help please.

Please ask your question on a forum for the Flash Player

Flash Player doesn't work, either IE or Firefox.

Flash Player doesn't work, on either IE or Firefox. Vista 32 bit, Firefox 10.0.2, Shockwave Flash 11.1.102.62. Reloaded Firefox and Flash. I get the spinning circle, but video never starts on IE or FF. Settings manager works. I'm at a loss. Update - actually it works on most video now, except Fox Sports or ESPN, either IE of FF.

After browsing the forums a bit, it would appear that this has been an ongoing problem for more than a month and the only 'inquiry' on the part of Adobe that I can find is one gentleman consistently asking people to report through the adobe bug/crash report process
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/953796
While I'm certain there have been many, many reports offered up, we have yet to see any solutions from the company, and admissions that there are issues with this product, or any ETA on expecting a reliable, stable version of Flash.
It would be very nice to have some feedback formally from the company. Many users (including myself) are experiencing frequent BSOD, having to spend hours uninstalling, reinstalling and aimlessly troubleshooting our computers all because of this add-in.
I recently updated every single hardware driver from my manufacturer, flashed my BIOS, troubleshot memory through self-diagnostics for days, and i still have issues related to Flash. I've tried the quick fixes suggested by (not sure if he's an Adobe official voice) user 'Chris' to no avail.
Certainly I could offer my dump file, by what good will that do me? Adobe, you certainly have enough crash reports to make SOME progress, please offer us up something, even if it's just to update us on any progress or research? All we know is you want information from us, while we still have nothing from you

Macbook air adoble flash player doesn't work after installation

macbook air adobe flash player doesn't work after installation

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 7. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
You might have to log out or reboot before a Flash update takes effect.
Step 2
In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
Step 3
If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
Step 4
If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
If the warning persists, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 5
Open this folder as in Step 4:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
Step 6
Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
Step 7
If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
Then click the button marked
Manage Website Settings...
if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
Step 8
Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.

The flash player doesn't work on my IE9

I have a windows 7 - 64 bit operating system. The flash player doesn’t work on my IE9 and it does work on Google Chrome. I have tried uninstalling the flash player and re installing the player. The download file doesn’t download when I try downloading through IE9and the file fails to initialize when I download the flash player for IE9 through google chrome. My antivirus software McAfee is not working because of the flash player and other softwares like yahoo messenger . Please help.

Assuming you've checked to make sure that Shockwave Flash is enabled in IE's addons manager and you do not have ActiveX filtering enabled, Could you check to see if you have the following Windows update installed?
KB2670838 – Platform Update for Windows 7 x64
If so, please uninstall it and try Flash Player out again.
Thanks,
Chris

Spacebar in CS6 doesn't work and hotkeys are shifty

I just recently downloaded CS6 from the creative cloud, the spacebar in CS6 doesn't work and switching cursor settings (brush, handtool, select all, move etc...) with the keyboard causes the program to pause for 1-2 seconds before the mouse will move again.
This is really obnoxious and ruins any workflow you want to have...
OH and I called Adobe support but that was a big FN' mistake.... most aggravating process and they are too damn skeptical about if you own the software or not!
Has anyone had issues w/ this?

You can try trashing your prefs (see Replace Your Preferences), but I don't think that's the problem, nor is there a general problem with book page numbering in CS6, so it's something that you've set incorrectly, or a step you've missed. Did you update the numbering after adding the files?

Flash animation doesn't work when I publish Captivate file

Hi,
I have an e-learning developed by a third party using Captivate 6, they've inserted animations (swf files) created using Flash CS6. When I try publishing the Captivate file on my computer all the animations work well except for a particular one (a wheel that spins and asks questions).
When I publish the Captivate file and go to that particular slide and click anywhere other than this animation the whole thing freezes (this doesn't happen on other slides with the other animation/quizzes developed using Flash CS6 on the same project). However, when the developer publishes the same file on their machine it works well.
I don't have Flash CS6 installed on my machine (I only have Flash CS4 and can't open the animation/swf files), I asked someone else (that had Flash CS6) to try publishing the Captivate file and had the same issue I had.
Has anyone had this issue before? how can I fix it?
Thanks!

Since you are loading another SWF file into your main root timeline and want to transfer control to the loaded SWF you need to call _lockroot on the container that holds the loaded content since you are using _root. Like this:
myMCLMain.loadClip("flashSite.swf", "container2");
container2._lockroot = true; //Add this line after loadClip
Or you can remove the _root in the loaded SWF.

Extension Builder for Flash CS6 is not working

Hi I'm trying to make an extension for Flash CS6, using Extension Builder 1.5
When I run the extension from Flash Builder, Flash CS6 opens up, but the extension doesn't show up under Window>Extensions menu.
I'm just trying with an empty extension.
Note: If I create another extension for Photoshop, it works fine.

//resize 100*100
window.width = 100;
window.height = 100;
//position 300,300
window.nativeWindow.x = 300;
window.nativeWindow.y = 300;

I hope you can help me.

I use 32 bit Photoshop on a modern machine for running some old plug-ins that aren't available for 64 bit. I don't want that experience to be slower.
I believe you're thinking about things a bit too simplistically - I wouldn't bet that the code could just be recompiled to give you compatibility. It may be that it employs libraries that require the higher level of instruction set, and has specific code to use it (though I honestly don't know the content of Adobe's sources). It's pretty clear that the 32 and 64 bit builds do share almost all the same sources. I'm a career software engineer; I know how this stuff works too.
Look, you can only make the point that you want software publishers to support ancient technology for only so long. The plain and simple fact is that Windows XP and older processors will only serve for so long. There will come a time when you just can run new stuff on old systems.
If you need compatibility with the old hardware, run the software that was available for those systems. By contrast, if you want to run state of the art software, you need modern hardware.
As a publisher, where would you cut off support for outdated hardware? Clearly it would be when supporting the old stuff becomes more expensive than the additional income you'd get by supporting it. Adobe has said they haven't even been able to maintain one working Athlon system.
