Flash/Flash Player will not open link to web page when clicked

Hi there, I am testing a FLASH animation ad that has links to a website. When I click on the links, it opens firefox but it doesn't go to the link! I have added the links and the file names in the Adobe Flash Settings Manager, restarted several times, restarted in Safe Mode and it still does not work! I cannot find any information on this. My coworker also tried it and it does not work for him on IE on Windows. HOWEVER, If I have SAFARI open it works fine, and If I drag and drop the .swf file into either browser and then click on the links it goes to the web page. If it helps I am on a MAC using Snow Leopard and I am using Flash CS3.

Go to this link:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l
Go to global security settings.
Click browse for folder, go to your drive root (or the folder where your swf/fla is and select it. You should see that folder get added to the security exception list. Re-test tell me what happens.
Thanks,
Jesse

My course designed in Captivate 5 will not open in the web browser when published or in preview mode

Does anyone know why my course will not open in a web browser. It's a pretty standards course. It's 800 X 600 with 73 slides that are all about 10 seconds long. It does have a few videos incorporated, but I removed them and published and I still got nothing in a web browser. Any ideas?

I'm afraid you haven't given us enough information to know how to help you.
More details please.
Screenshots of what you see perhaps?
Do you have the same issue with a new blank project uploaded to the same publish folder with the same browser?

How can I get Firefox 3.0 to work as a browser on my iBook G4 with OS10.3.9 so I can work my Hotmail email account? The download loads OK but will not open to a browser page when I double click on it. Tom.

Have been using Firefox 2.0 just fine for years. But now stupid Windows Live Hotmail has made it impossible for me to "use" my email, such as doing Bcs or Attaching something, or even typing new text in the message box. Hotmail tells me I have to update my Firefox browser. But updating to Firefox 3.0 due my OS system limits does not now allow me to open onto the internet even after a successful download of 3.0. Tom.

Firefox 3 will not run on OS X 10.3.9, it requires at least 10.4
Try one of these browsers to see if you can access Hotmail - [http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey1.1.19/ SeaMonkey 1.1.19] or [http://caminobrowser.org/download/ Camino 1.6.11]

Since updating last time Firefox will not open new tabs unless I right click on a link. It won't open them via file or the tab at the top of the brwoser. Anyone know how to fix this?

Since updating last time Firefox will not open new tabs unless I right click on a link. It won't open them via file or the tab at the top of the brwoser or usinf ctrl + t. Anyone know how to fix this?

I can press ctrl for a new tab but otherwise a new tab does not open. I actually need help regarding this new Synch which apparently will be in Firefox automatically in an upcoming version so I am asking how that will synch with people who use LastPass-of course because I use this very successfully and really am not eager to change the set up that I have in place at this time.
I have read through endless FAQ trying to find anyone else who has this question or concern but have found nothing. Can you please tell me how that service will get along with LastPass which does basically the same thing as Synch-it is probably spelled wrong as it looks wrong to me but if I click back to where this issue began, I will lose all of this question so please respond for the upcoming service synch.

5800 Express Music - Music player will not open

Hi,
My 5800 music player will not open. I can open the radio and every other application in that folder except the music player. please help!!

Hi,
Are you able to play the songs from the File Manager in the handset? If yes, try Restore Factory Settings in the handset. Press Menu > Settings > Phone > Phone Management > Factory Settings. If you are not able to play the songs even from from the File Manager, then try Hard Resetting the handset. Power Off the handset. Hold the 2 calls (Red & Green) & the Camera key & proceed to power on the device, while holding the three keys (green, red and camera). Keep holding down the 3 keys until after the handshake screen.
Make sure you Back-Up the Phone Data before Hard Resetting the device.

HT3775 quick player will not open file M2U00110.mpg please help

quick player will not open file M2U00110.mpg please help

The easiest solution is probably to use VLC. It can play just about anything.
However, Perian will help Quicktime play various formats.
Flip4Mac will help Quicktime play Windows Media files.

I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

Hi, I'm helping StringSinger2 with this problem.
The previously installed version is Pages 3.0.3 (the same as from iWork 08). This version (Pages 3.0.3/iWork 08) is incompatible with Pages 5.
That is why it would be helpful to install iWork 09, which is the version between the two. It will open the older 08 files, and its saved files are readable by the new Pages5.
SO...
When I try to install iWorks 09 from my retail DVD the error message is "the installer is damaged". (I know the dvd is good, I installed iWorks09 to my laptop today.) Is the "installer" part of the system files? And - If that is damaged is there a patch for that?
Many Thanks!

I just downloaded and installed the new iTunes on a Toshiba Satelite of some age. It was just completely reformated and updated with XP. iTunes will not open. The terms page comes up and when I agree it disappears. I have uninstalled and reinstalled.

How can i make firefox open to home page instead of "new tab"? My setting are correct, but it will not open to the home page.

No matter what I do, Firefox will not open to my home page. It always "new tab".
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Harold

You can try to delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] in case session restore tries to open an older session.
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.

Updated to the latest revision. Firefox will not display my chosen home page without clicking on home icon.

Since latest update...Firefox will not allow a new page to be opened from a link in a current page. It will allow a new tab to be opened (with tabbed browsing checked) but i prefer a new page. Even in tabbed browsing links to things like a pdf will not work at all.
Firefox WILL NOT close. X-ing out will close the window but I can not get back to Firefox without closing it in task manager.
Firefox will not display my chosen home page without clicking on home icon.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I right click on link, click, open in new window, then nothing happens. Or, windows within a page will not open, for example, on gmail, when I click "details" the window will not open.

When I right click on a hot link, then click, open in a new window, a window will not open. Alternatively, I can click, open in a new tab, and a new tab will open. Additionally, if I'm at a website with a chat feature, the chat window will not open, or, as another example, if I'm at gmail, and I click "details", the window that opens giving the summary of when your account has been opened and the IP addresses it's been accessed from, will not open.
I have on the computer, Aurora too. I doubt that it's a source of the problem, but I had to throw that into the mix. For clarification, this problem is happening while using the Firefox browser.

You can middle-click a link to open the link in a new tab.

FF 3.6.12 will not open links from external sources (Outlook, Dreamweaver, Digsby, etc)

I have just upgraded to Firefox 3.6.12 and links clicked in an external source will not open in Firefox.
Firefox is set as my default program for web browsing. I have tried to open links from Outlook, Dreamweaver, Digsby, and other programs.

I have the same issue, opening links from external programs like Word or Thunderbird does not work. This used to work before the update to 3.6.12

OR
*Press ''Ctrl'' + ''F5'' or ''Ctrl'' + ''Shift'' + ''R'' (Windows and Linux)
