Flash file won't display

Bear with me, I come from the GoLive world.
Have a site recently converted to DW. Made an update to the
home page that has a Flash file in it. DW asked me if I wanted to
update code to make it IE safe. Now file does not display in Mac
Safari or Firefox. Haven't turned on a Windows box yet to test
there.
It displays in preview, but not live.
http://www.starmilling.com
Flash file should be right above the Simplicity bag area.
Any idea what happened? DW is hard enough to figure out
without having this.
If worse comes to worse, I can always copy the GL code for
that flash file back in, but was hoping to fix it without
that.

If you had done what you needed to do from the start, you
wouldn't have to
do this at all. I'm just saying....

Flash files won't display when using DW CS3

Anyone else have this problem? The source shows there's a
flash file on my html page but it doesn't appear at all. When I
made a new page using Dreamweaver MX, I added a flash file,
uploaded it, and all was fine (except there was that annoying 'you
must click to activate' message in IE). When I open that same html
page in Dreamweaver CS3, it says that DW will fix the 'object tag'
(to get rid of that message). So it adds the code, then when I look
at the page on the Web, there's no Flash file there at all. Is
there something else I need to do when inserting a .swf file in
CS3? Thanks.

Sure it does. You forgot to upload the Scripts folder that DW
alerted you
to do.

A direct link to the site in question helps. Posting your code here isn't much help since the .swf file is stored on your server and can't be tested by the helpers here

Flash Files Will Not Display in Dreamweaver

Flash files will not display in Dreamweaver or in any
browser. If I insert a Flash button, text or other file, when I hit
the "play" button the flash place holder disapears, and the Flash
file never displays. In the Property Inspector, the file is always
"undefined" even when I save the file to my root folder with a
name. When I hit the "Edit" button, I get the message that the file
could not be found on my local disk. It's like Dreamweaver fails to
create or place a Flash file. Help please!

You will have to rename the hard drive for dreamweaver to
work properly.
The ' is causing dw to not find the path.
other symptoms would be dw nagging that the "homepage" is not
within the
local site folder so it can't build a sitemap.

Some PSD files won't display in Bridge

Why is it that some PSD files won't display a visible thumbnail in Bridge?
Don

I tried Curt Young's suggestion in the Bridge forum:
When in the folder with the problem click on Tools/cache/purge cache for folder xxx. The thumbnails will be then rebuild and see if that solves the problem. Let all the thumbs rebuild completely (spinning arrow on bottom left corner will stop) before carrying out any other operation. You may have a few corrupted files in the cache.
It worked!

PDF files won't display. Error message "Missing Plug-ins"

Hello. I am having trouble with adobe reader but only certain files. When I first signed up for school in may Adobe Flash Player and Adobe Reader were required and when I did the check plug-ins system check, both were installed and running just fine. Just in the past 2 days is the check plug-ins test saying Adobe reader is not installed. I have tried un-installing and re-installing but still saying it is not installed. I'm not having troubl with all adobe reader files. I'm an online student and my e-books are opening and displaying just fine. Also my pdf documents saved on my computer are opening just fine. When I try to view a websites brochure, a websites sale paper, or maybe open up an article, the page pops up but the image won't display. It keeps saying "missing Plug-ins". I have a MAC 10.6.8. running on Safari and I have downloaded Adobe Reader 10.1.0. I need to be able to open up articles because I'm doing a homework assignment that requires one. If u can help in any way, please do.

I've tried all the fixes listed in the discussions about missing plug-ins in Mail. None of them worked. I can see attachements in the emails, but when I forward them, the missing plug-in shows up in place of the attachments on the forwarded email. I'm running the latest OS 10.7 on my Mac Pro and I just downloaded the latest Java app. HELP!!

Flash .swc won't display

I've got a head-scratcher here.
We're updating an older Flex 3 project (3.6 SDK) and have (mostly) succussfully migrated the project to FB4.5 but we're sticking with the 3.6 SDK.
One particular element of this project is a masthead which we publish as a .swc from Flash 5.5 after using the "Convert Symbol to Flex Component" command. I've also written a simple class for this masthead component so we can get at some interal properties.
The .swc isn't visible at all. It's there, I've confirmed that using the debugger but it won't display. I've even tried pulling it into a bare-bones project file using both the old 3.6 SDK and the 4.5 SDK. Nothing.
Maybe I'm follow an old workflow for bringing Flash elements into Flash Builder?
I noticed there are two Flex Component kits, but I'm pretty sure Flash 5.5 already has the Flex Component kit built-in. Yes?
Toughts?

Hi,
You mentioned that this was a project you migrated over to FB 4.6,
correct? Chances are that even though you have the swc in your lib
folder, the project properties are pointing to a version of the swc in a
different location.
Choose Project > Properties > Flex Build Path >Library Path and then
click the swc that's having problems, click "Edit" on the right, and
confirm that it's pointing to the correct location.

IMac 2.66 Radeon HD 2600 Pro: some Excel files won't display in ppt decks

Running Leopard 10.5.8 and MS Office 2004
Two iMac (8.1) 2.66 GHz with ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro video won't display some Excel files in PowerPoint decks, but iMac 1.83 GHz Core Duo will display o.k. as will MacBook Pro, MacBook, etc. Installing a trial version of Office 2008, both iMac 2.66 GHz display the PowerPoint files o.k.
I could downgrade the users to Intel iMac 1.83 GHz, or buy two copies of Office 2008 and support them, neither of which is a great solution.
Looking for a simple fix or workaround on what seems to be a video card issue. Don't seem to see this problem or a fix on the ATI site. I've googled this but haven't run into a similar issue.

Well, Office 2008 is only $110 USD at http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Office-2008-Home-Student/dp/B000X86ZAS/ref=sr11?ie=UTF8&s=software&qid=1251560959&sr=8-1
That seems the least expensive solution to me.

Swf flash files are not displaying neatly within table cells.

The latest version of Firefox (3.6.12) The website I have design now shows thick lines underneath the flash files. URL Below. The table of pictures should be neat, instead the cells in which the flash files are contained are increasing in height and breaking apart the table . This does not happen in previous version of Firefox, Internet Explorer & Google Chrome.
Is there anything i should be doing different when inserting flash files into web pages that have complex tables? Or is this a problem with Firefox?

Add a rule object { display: block } to the stylesheet. An object is an inline element by default.

Flash movie won't display online

I'm thinking there's something wrong with my settings when I
export my .swf files. I have two .swf's now, neither will display
online on three different servers. Just a blank screen comes up. Or
could there not be flash files needed on those three servers? If
so, how do I install/upload them? Do I need to be uploading more
than just the .swf file?

There's a movie halfway down this page, but it's not showing:
http://www.lkcwebdesign.com/index.shtml
It does run here (the html file Flash generates)
http://www.lkcwebdesign.com/flash-portfolio.html
It's worked a few times, then we I'd reposition it, it would
disappear again.

Using Windows 7, now Reader XI and now SOME pdf files won't display. Try: 'PDF of Reader XI Help'!!!

After installling Reader XI SOME pdf files will not display. Using Windows 7 and all worked fine until installation of XI. Esample: when I try to display YOUR file 'PDF of Reader XI Help' all I get is a blank screen with an X in the upper right corner. Works just fine with Windows XP and Reader 8.5.1. Any ideas ?????

Log files won't display

I have installed DS 5.0 on Solaris 8. The log files are not displayed in
the
management console. It simply shows an empty content window.
The files are there and they contain data. Access rights seem to be
okay.
Paths seem to be okay. I upgraded to SP1, but this did not help.
I checked the patches. They are all installed.
Thanks
Bernhard Fromberg

This may be a stupid question from me, but did you press the refresh button? Or select something like continues update button (don't remember the exact name)

Please help. Flash file won't load on page that contains a form

Hi and thank you for viewing this post. I have a site located at http://www.marquis-online.com. If you wish to see the code, it's on the "contact us" page, or I have also attached the actual HTML document.. You will notice that I have a form on the page as well as the flash banner. When I take the form off, the flash works (Like on the other pages), but when the form is on the page, the flash banner won't load. It seems as though I can't have both on the same page. I don't get it. I would greatly appreciate some input. Thank you so much.
Kevin

It works OK for me in Firefox. Which browser(s) have you tested it on?
Flash form scripts may be conflicting with banner scripts. I don't know. Also, you have some validation errors on the page. Start by fixing those.

Flash file won't replay?

I am in AS3.0
I have created a linear flash file to show the steps of a user flow.
This uses a single 'next' button which navigates through the flow and at the final screen navigates back to the first screen to allow the user to view the file again.
However it sticks at screen1 and will not progress.
I have addressed the following points suggested by someone else,
1. make sure your button listener code is on the first keyframe that contains your button.
2. your button should be on its own layer
3. that layer should extend to length of your timeline
4. there should be no keyframe in your button's layer OTHER than the first keyframe. ie, there's only one keyframe containing your button and your button exists throughout your timeline.
but it still doesn't work.
Any help is much appreciated.
Max

What you just described isn't really following the intent of what was recommended to you. Is there any chance you could show a screenshot of the timeline down at the scene1 end? I am anticipating that the code that would be assigned in scene1 is not being assigned again, possibly because you miss that frame on returning, though I may be wrong.
What you might consider doing instead is to only assign one listener to that button, back in the first frame it appears in (no other keyframes on the button's layer) and have it use a variable that you assign the next screen's frame label value (call it nextSection or something).
next.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickNext);
function clickNext(evtObj:MouseEvent){
gotoAndStop(nextSection);
and that nextSection variable would be declared in the first frame of a layer that also extends the length of the timeline so that it is accessible anywhere for assignment and retrieval.
var nextSection:String;
and you would assign it the next screen's frame label when you arrive at each screen.... nextSection = "screen5";

Flash file won't show

Hi there,
I upgraded to CS3 last week and updated some copy on the page
below. Only just noticed, that the Flash file isn't showing up on
the page anymore. Any idea why?
PAGE
LINK

Don't. Put the script back in. It works fine *IF* you also
upload the
Scripts folder, as you are told by DW when you initially
insert the Flash on
the page.
