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.

  • 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....

  • 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 ????? Thanks.

  • Yosemite is awful- unable to empty trash, volume options are haywire, error codes on file management, and files won't replace when moved. What are my options at this point?

    Like the topic - "Yosemite is awful- unable to empty trash, volume options are haywire, error codes on file management, and files won't replace when moved. What are my options at this point?"
    I installed this OS, and it looks nice, but it's terrible to use. I randomly have the volume controls get disabled, and sometimes the volume menu in the system tray does nothing when adjusted which I've never seen in an OS before. The trash won't empty. When I try to drag and drop newer files over existing ones, nothing happens. The old ones just stay there. I have to delete the old ones and then move the new ones. And when I go into the protected files to manage audio plugins (I make music), the first thing I hit are error codes galore, and password prompts that either don't popup when they should, or don't execute the command after I provide my password.
    What can I do now that I installed the flames of **** onto my computer?

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
    Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
    sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
    resetp
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • 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!

  • I cannot open pdf files from one supplier when using Adobe Reader but I can using another Viewer

    I cannot open pdf files from one supplier when using Adobe Reader but I can open it if using Google PDF viewer or another viewer. The Adobe reader gives the error "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired" when I try to open the file. The version of Adobe Reader is 10.1.7, however I have tried other versions and they all fail the same way.  I have tested on a number of different PC's in different networks and all fail using Adobe Reader but work using alternate viewer. Also the PC's will open a PDF from any other source.

    Newer Reader versions are more strict than older versions (and other PDF viewers).  If certain minimum requirements are not met, Reader will tell you that the PDF is damaged.  This can happen when a document was created with software that does not adhere to PDF standards, or when the file was damaged during a download or email transmission.
    You should contact the creator of these PDFs.

  • Assign the name of a file and its extension when using DESTYPE=MAIL

    Hello,
    I've developed a report running Oracle Reports 10g that is being emailed to a user. I would like to specify the name of the file and it's extension that is attached. Are there variables or parameters in Oracle Reports that I can use to accomplish this?
    It looks like by default that the file name is using the Name value found in the Property Inspector for the report. I have not been able to find a way to re-assign this value with a value from either the input or select values in the data model.
    Will Oracle Reports 10g allow me to define the name of the file and the extension?
    Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    Thank you for the quick reply and information. I almost thought you had solved my problem until I found out that distribution and bursting do not support delimited and spreadsheet output. One of the two files I need to email has a desformat of SPREADSHEET.
    Is there any other way to manipulate the file name and extension when using destype of MAIL?

  • Module borders not displaying when using Aggregator

    I am using Captivate 4.  I created a TOC for both modules in a project. Then I created an Aggregator to connect them and display both TOCs.
    The issue I am havving is that the individual modules have borders on all 4 sides, yet they do not display when using the aggregator. How do I correct this?
    Thank you.

    Lenny,
    I apologize for not having an answer to your question, but I'm envious that you've successfully configured mod_jk. I've read several different versions of how to configure this, but nothing has worked so far. I wonder if you could either point me to some correct instructions on how to integrate Apache and Tomcat so I might try to duplicate your success.
    Thanks in advance,
    Vince

  • Using Slide Tool No two up display when using keyboard shortcuts

    I've noticed when using the slide tool using my mouse, I get the two up display in the canvas the way I'm supposed to, where it shows me the new out point on the left frame and the new in point on the right frame. However if I select the clip and then use the left and right brackets to move the clip, I don't get the two up display in the canvas like if I was using the mouse.
    Is this normal, and if so, is there a way I can see the two up display when using the keyboard to slide? thanks.

    Is this normal?
    well the 2-up is activated by the mouse click and when you trim from the keyboard there's no mouse click ... so yes, this is normal
    is there a way I can see the two up display when using the keyboard to slide?
    good question. am not in front of an FCP station right now but if i were i'd be clicking around trying to find if it was possible some way

  • What are the .fm.sp files that are created when using SharePoint?

    What are the .fm.sp files that are created when using SharePoint? When I'm working with SharePoint, I've noticed that duplicate files ending in .fm.sp are created. I've been unable to find any reference or documentation about them so far.

    Whe you use sharepoint as a CMS connections in Framemaker it creates the folder where Sp is installed and also a file ending .sp is created that let SP know that its the file associated with it.
    .fm.sp indicates that its the framemaker type SP file.
    Dont worry about it as its not creating any mess in the system.
