Flash/Dreamweaver 8 issue

.ve seen this posted earlier with no clear answer. I am
taking videos converting them in Flash Pro....publishing them in
swf and html....when I clck on the files outside of DW8 they play
fine, when I put them on my page in DW8, and press the play
function all I get is a white box. Just to experiment I uploaded
them to my server....I get the white box, but flash is present
(right click and I get flash settings etc box)
But again it wont play in dreamweaver even before uploading.
I did make an animation however...followed the same steps and it
works, so I am at a loss

Would saying "never use flash buttons" be an acceptable
response to this
question?
If not, then blast on. If so, then I commend you for your
wisdom and
adaptability. Flash buttons are a very poor choice for a
website.

  • Flash / Dreamweaver issue

    I posted this in the DW section as well.
    On the home page of my site I have a flash file inserted
    below a navigation bar. Every 4 seconds or so, the image swipes
    over to show a new image. The problem is that when I'm using the
    navigation bar above it (created in Fireworks and inserted as FW
    html) the dropdown items disappear when the "swipe" action occurs.
    It actual looks like it gets covered up by the moving image. It
    does this in both Firefox and IE (5.2 for Mac) but it works just
    fine in Safari.
    Can anyone help?

  • Flash Player Issue with Windows 8.1 Professional

    Hi guys,
    I'm currently having issues with Flash Player on Internet Explorer 11 in Windows 8.1. It seems that the Flash Player has been disabled when I access http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-issues-windows-8.html.
    However, when I logged off the my domain account and use my local account, I'm able to test Flash Player.
    Therefore, the only thing I can think of is the Group Policy that is blocking the Flash Player as I've resetted IE settings on my domain account.
    Hopefully you guys are able to solve this mystery.
    Thanks!!

    Go to control panel and go to program and features and uninstall existing adobe player
    and adobe flash player activex both....
    Then select windows 8 and flash player  from here http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
    Install and check..

  • Flash & Dreamweaver in Studio 8 - Bundled Together or Individual Disks?

    Is Studio 8 complied of 3 different disks, the latest version
    of Flash, Dreamweaver, and Fireworks or is each version of that
    program bundled together on one disk? What's the real different
    between Studio 8 and buying all 3 programs separately aside from
    the price advantage?

    You get two disks: A) Dreamweaver 8, Fireworks 8, Flash 8,
    Flash 8
    Video Encoder, Contribute 3, and FlashPaper 2; B) HomeSite+
    5.5, ColdFusion
    MX 7.0 Developer Edition, and Fireworks Tutorial Assets.

  • Installing Flash Player Issues

    I have a Windows 8 Operating Sysytem and I use IE version 8. I have downloaded the latest flash player numerous times and it continues not to work. So can someone please help me install it?????? Thanks in advance

    If you have Windows 8, you CANNOT use IE 8, because Windows 8 comes with IE 10 preinstalled and it WON'T accept a lower version.
    In addition, Flash Player for IE in Windows 8 is modified and embedded by Microsoft. It's "their baby" so to speak. It can ONLY be updated through Windows Update (in your Control Panel under System and Security).
    Microsoft released a "Tuesday patch" November 12 to update Flash Player for IE10 and IE11 in Windows 8 and 8.1.
    If you run the update and still have problems, see: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-issues-windows-8.html for more steps to take.

  • Would flash player issues cahnge desktop icons?

    I'm starting a seperate discussion on this issue as it is truly different than my other postings
    I use Vista Home premium
    I have many icons on my desk top, mostly shortcuts to program. Yesterday I had to reboot several times when trying to update to ne flash player.
    Then upon one reboot, I noticed that some, just like 3, Icons changed.
    Example
    icon for the shortcut to itunes looked like the icon picture for the game dinerdash
    icon for shortcut to the game Bakerydash looked like the icon for spider solitaire
    now when I would right click on these shortcuts, they would show the proper data for the shortcut they truely were Whe I would right click on the icon and then select change icon, the only option there was the actual correct icon. I'd hit apply, but it did not good.
    I ran virus/spyware scans and all were clean.
    Could it be because of flash player issues? or because  I had rebooted several times in a row and did not allow the system to fully reboot before trying the next reboot??
    Like I would reboot and then 7 minutes later reboot again. Could that cause the icons to screw up a little?

    I don't know what changed the desktop icons, but it is one of these things that just happen sometimes.
    Windows XP had a great tool, TweakUI (from Windows Power Toys), that has a 'Repair Icons' function.  Microsoft never released a TweakUI version for Vista, but I know that a 3rd-party version of TweakUI for Vista can be found on the Internet (Google will find it for you).
    I would try to use this to repair your desktop icons.
    P.S. since this TweakUI is not a Microsoft tool, I recommend to make a System Restore point before running it; just in case...

  • Exported Flash IIS issue

    Hi,
    I have exported an Encore project to Flash and it works ok locally.
    When i copy the all the exported files onto a Webserver, then create a virtual directory pointing to it, the main menu appears yet none of the video plays.
    The source folder etc has been copied over, as i see that has been an issue in previous posts.
    The server is Win2003 and the virtual directory is added to the default web site.
    I am making no amendments to the exported files except moving them to a webserver.
    Can anyone please help?

    The only Encore/Flash related issue that could be going on is that you haven't copied ALL of the items used (the source folder, the .html, the .swf). But, since you said you did all that, then I don't know why that wouldn't work for you.
    In the URL, do you have a trailing "/" at the end? That can play a role. Also, check case-sensitivity (type in the URL exactly as the folder is listed).
    I'm sure you've got your own reasons for using virtual directory...however, have you tried setting up the Flash DVD on the site any other way to at least determine whether or not your virtual directory setup is the source of the problem? Try setting it up some other way....if it works, then you at least have a better idea where the problem lies. If it still doesn't work, then....something may well be missing, despite your best efforts to ensure a 100% transfer.
    Good luck!

  • Is there a solution or work around for flash player issues?

    Is there a solution, app or work around for flash player issues w/ iPad 2? Maybe even something in development?

    Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter and Puffin 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store, so you could try checking there for your sites (and there is the built-in YouTube app). But flash itself is unlikely to ever be supported on the iPad : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/ , and Adobe have failed to create a version of flash that works on iOS
    There is a search box on the right-hand side of this page for further info.

  • Dreamweaver/ Flash & Server issue

    The issue I am having is:
    * When a new .HTM page is created, no flash will play.
    Anything newly uploaded on the server or anything that has been
    uploaded in the past.
    * When I save from another .HTM file, only the newly uploaded
    flash will not play, yet the old will.
    Everything works fine locally, just not on the site server.
    My partner noticed that there is some Javascript at the bottom of
    the page (that we did not add), even when a new page is created or
    if the code is deleted it comes back. I called where we host and
    they explained that Dreamweaver adds the code to make the Flash
    play locally, and it's something with the way Plesk handles it that
    it won't work from the server. All I have to do is go into Plesk
    and delete the code, and everything will work fine. I've tried
    deleting all of it, parts of it, and I can't seem to make the flash
    movie play.
    Has anyone experienced anything like this and have some sort
    of a solution? If someone can aid me in what exactly I need to
    delete, or some other way to fix it... The problem started today
    for us seemingly out of nowhere.
    Myself and my partner are both working from CS3, I am working
    from Windows XP Pro and he is working from a Mac.
    Below are links to the troublesome pages. The Java shows at
    the bottom of the repurposed page and an added line before
    "</head>" at the top.
    New
    .HTM Page
    Repurposed
    .HTM Page
    You can see how our videos are laid out by going to
    Miss
    GEICO Racing and clicking 'action' then 'videos;' the top one
    is the one that is not working.
    Thanks for the help in advance!

  • Security issue with Flash/Dreamweaver

    I am trying to insert a .swf file into dreamweaver. When I insert the movie I get this pop-up when running the LIVE function, and also in test browser environment and files uploaded to the server...
    I have gone to security panel and allowed access by typing in the file name for the express install file, yet I get the same results. I have also made sure I am running all updated versions of flash player.
    Can anyone offer me any advice?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    It's a security warning to protect your hard drive from possible malware. This only happens when you preview locally.   It won't happen when you upload it to your server.
    That said, most people have given up on Flash for a variety of reasons. 
    Security,
    Bandwidth,
    Flash drains the battery life out of mobile devices. 
    Flash isn't supported by iPhones, iPads, iTouch, Androids and other mobile brands...
    The list of Flash supporting devices is shrinking daily.

  • Flash or Dreamweaver Issue

    I am working with Flash 8 and Dreamweaver 8. When working
    with video I can attach a skin to my flash file (video). I then
    upload my video and skin to my Web server. The Flash skin does not
    appear on my site. Just an empty box at the bottom of the video
    where the skin should be.
    What am I doing wrong? Any help is sincerely
    appreciated!

    Yes, I am using Flash version 8. Should that parameter read?
    "8, 0, 0, 0"? Here is the code from Dreamweaver. Thank you so much

  • Dreamweaver CS3 Flash Video Issue

    I have Dreamweaver CS3 running in OS X 10.4.11 all updated.
    all of a sudden when I go to insert a Flash Video into a page I get the wheel of death and DW is frozen. I formatted the video in Flashconverter and it plays fine in mpeg streamclip.
    The Insert dialog opens and I can chose the flash video and then hit detect size and the controls I want. and then I hit ok and the wheel comes up and never goes away.
    If I create a new sit it will let me add the video.
    Any ideas why this is happening?
