Flash is not visible in flash Player 9

Hi All,
I created a swf file using flash 8. But i can't view this in
machines having flash player 9. In all other players like flash
player 8
I can view the flash files.So please provide me your help.
Thanks and Regards,
Johny John

please do not cross-post. one forum is enough.
your site works fine in firefox here running flash 9. but if
we don't know what is "invisible" then
we cant really know if it is showing up - in other words - if
we cant see it, and dont know what it
should look like - then we have no idea if it is there and
working or not. Know what i mean?
describe the movie clip that is being loaded dynamically -
describe what it looks like, then we can
detirmine if it working on our end ;)

  • Why the fox tab not wroking in my pc? i am uning win xp.when i opened up several tab and click onthe fox tab awindow appears of instaliing flash player. Also in facebook the vdos are visible.

    I am using win xp . I am not been able to watch the vdos of face book in firefox but in internet explorer it is visible. Again the Fox tab is also not working. I have installed it properly.when i click on the tab a window appears of flash player. I have installed flash player successfully several times.

    IE uses a different version of Flash than other browsers use. You need to install the Plugin version of Flash for Firefox.
    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

  • Flash Player's Setting Manager not visible

    When I attempt to access the flash player's settings, the redirect takes me to the Macromedia Settings Manager welcome page.  Unfortunately none of the panels are visible.  However, if I right click upon the space which ought to be a panel, I am presented with a context menu which provides for Zoom In, Zoom Out..., etcetera.  Clicking any one of these selections provide nothing.
    As far as I can ascertain, my Flash Player works.  My problem is: I have no opportunity to manage Global Privacy Settings, Website Privacy,....etcetera.  Prior to IE9 and Adobe's latest 10.2...  I did.  Something is amiss.
    In IE, tools, manage addons unders "Show", Shockwave Flash Object is Enabled, version: 10,2,159,1 4/28/2011
    I have been to the test site many times and have seen  the Flash Player logo (Red F) animation(spinning) each time. The version presented is: 10,2,159.
    Further comment regarding my problem was first introduced yesterday here [http://forums.adobe.com/thread/845448?tstart=0]  Eidnolb's two suggestions to explore my problem through Microsoft and Internet Explorer puzzle me because my problem appears to me to be Adobe's problem, not Microsoft's.  Do I really need to spend countless minutes on hold with Microsoft?
    My specifics are:
    •operating system :
    Windows 7 Home Premium, Service Pack 1
    •web browser and version:
    IE9  9.0.8112.16421 update versions: RTM (KB982861) cipher strength: 256-bit
    *final note: I have attempted accessing the Settings Manager also with my IE9 64-bit version and strangely have received a visible image in the usual, panel box, space.  It tells me to download Flash Player.

    Thanks once again, Eidnolb.  And thank you for your suggestion about the Compatibility View.  I learned something from the link which you provided above.  The most interesting thing was: Microsoft's helpful explanation of Compatibility View (seen there) never explains that a user needs to check and uncheck the feature when he first discovers that perhaps a website function isn't working correctly.  The explanation mentions only something about an icon appearing in a user's address bar.
    By luck, I discovered  a user needs to "check" the Compatibility View feature when he suspects incompatibility.  Once that is checked, then the browser reloads the suspect page and IF there is an incompatibility, THEN the icon will appear.  If there is not, then there is no incompatibility.
    Lastly, if there is no incompatibility, then a user should "uncheck" the feature and continue on blissfully waiting for Microsoft to screw his mind somewhere else.
    Thanks again,
    Dave

  • Some flash content (like flash player settings) not visible

    Hello,
    I am running the newest versions of Flash Player in both FireFox 3.6 and IE8 on Windows XP Pro.
    I can see most Flash things (like this page: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ which in both browsers says "You have version 10,0,45,2 installed").  Several things do not appear.  For instance, none of the Settings Panel windows show up.  Also, some Facebook apps do not work (i.e. Pet Society) while others by the same vendor (i.e. Crazy Planets) work fine.
    Both browsers behave the same.  I cannot see the settings windows in either one.
    I have run the uninstaller, and re-installed Flash several times.
    I'll be grateful for whatever help can be provided.
    J

    I actually tried an older version of 10, but yes, I went back to the current version.
    The only Java is Java 6 update 18, I ran the Java update and it confirms that I'm current.  Adobe DLM and GetPlus are already gone.
    Here's the plugins from IE8 ("All Add-ons" not just the currently used ones):

    Could we concentrate on getting it running in IE?  I never use IE and am willing to do any necessary experiements on it.  It's more difficult to type up all my Firefox extensions and plugins (no easy copy & paste), and I would rather leave my otherwise fully functional Firefox installation alone.  If not, maybe there's a plugin that dumps info about all the plugins into a text file.

  • Installers for Flash Player and Acrobat Reader not visible/stuck.

    I am running a windows 7 64-bit computer. When I run the installer, no installer window appears. I do however see the process in the task manager, and see that the installers have been moved to my C:/../AppData/Local/Temp folder; however, after that point the process seems to stagnate. How do I fix this? Is there some file that the installer requires? There is no error message for me to troubleshoot this on my own. I've restarted my computer multiple times, have everything else updated, and run the most current version of mozilla firefox. Help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    I would recommend posting this qiery in the Adobe Reader / Adobe Flash Player forum.
    Thanks

  • Flash Player will not work even upon reinstalling it

    Hello!
    I am having quite the time trying to get Adobe Flash Player
    to work! Seemingly "out of nowhere", none of the youtube videos of
    my nephew were visible on the site any longer, when they had
    previously been working just fine. When I went to the page, using
    IE7, there was a blank spot where the video should be. However, at
    that time, I *was* able to view the video using FireFox. I thought
    this was unusual that it would work in Firefox but no longer be
    working in IE7.
    I checked to see if javascript was turned on in both browsers
    -- it was. I have javascript enabled in Firefox2 (tools/ options/
    content/ enable javascript; under advanced settings "disable or
    replace context menus" is checked, although I don't know if this
    applies), and in IE7 (tools/ options/ security/ custom Level/
    scripting/ active scripting/ enable).
    Since this didn't seem to be the problem, the only thing I
    could think of doing was to uninstall Flash Player. In my Add or
    Remove Programs, I saw Adobe Flash Player ActiveX and Adobe Flash
    Player Plug-In. I went to Adobe's site, and found a document
    entitled "How to uninstall the Adobe Flash Player plug-in and
    ActiveX control", which said you need to use an Adobe program for
    the uninstall, which I did. I then rebooted the computer. Next I
    installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player ActiveX.
    When I viewed the youtube videos, they now showed just fine
    in both IE7 and Firefox.
    I closed down the computer and went to bed happy it was
    fixed.
    The next morning, upon startup, I was dismayed to find that
    the problem had started all over again, although now the video was
    no longer viewable in *either* IE7 or Firefox.
    In Firefox, I see the message "Hello, you either have
    JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player.
    Get the latest Flash player." In IE7, I see no message; just a
    blank spot.
    Again I double-checked that javascript was turned on in both.
    I double-checked my Add or Remove Programs, and I can see the
    Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX was installed. (And I knew it to be
    working before I shut the computer down.)
    I feel like I am going bananas.
    Does anyone know what could be going on? Might you have any
    insight as to why it would first stop working in one browser, work
    in both browsers upon reinstalling it but before turning off the
    computer, and then not work in either browser upon starting up the
    computer again?
    Thank you so much! I just appreciate your help more than I
    can say!
    Happy day to you!
    Karen

    Thanks.  This worked for me, too.
    And this is what I used to do the uninstall, so I could re-install from the webpage:
    http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player.exe
    I placed this .exe file in this install directory . . .
    {C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash}
    . . . along with a ReadMe file that contained this notation:
    <uninstall_flash_player.exe> was obtained manually from:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/alternates/
    ...and not installed in this directory as part of the Flashplayer install.
    This was obtained as part of an attempt to correct Flashplayer suddenly not working in MSIE.
    Correcting this problem involved unistalling and re-installing Flash, but uninstalling via the normal Pgm.Accs+Dflts facility did not seem to work correctly; i.e., the subsequent re-intall failed to correct the problem: even though the download webpage indicated a successful install, the Flash animation did not appear. However, using the above .exe file does allow a truly successful subsequent re-install.

  • SpryTabbedPanel: Flash player in tabs do not play video streams

    Note: I am a complete noob (no experience with Javascript and rudimentary experience with htlm/css). Please be patient (I hope that this is the correct forum for this) and know that I am appreciative of any help or solution that anyone can provide.
    Using Dreamweaver CS4 on Mac OS 10.5.8
    We recently switched all of our streaming servers from Windows Media (good riddance) to Flash Media Server 3.5 (now getting awesome H.264 quality in comparison).
    I was asked to re-design this webpage with the aim of re-organizing the content so that it is more accessible:
    http://www.librarymedia.net/VideoGallery.html
    We used Adobe's test page for our first page:
    http://www.librarymedia.net/flash/videoplayer.html?source=rtmp://63.116.232.4/live/livestr eam&type=live&idx=10
    This was meant as a temporary page to get us started, and as you can see, it needs work but at least it works.
    I've been working the the final version of this page. My boss wants a tabbed web page with links to our video streams (tab for each category of streams).
    This is what I have so far:
    http://www.librarymedia.net/Flash2/videoplayer2.html?source=rtmp://63.116.232.4/live/lives tream&type=live&idx=10
    I realize that I had several options before building this. One, I could have made a separate page for each tab and linked them with a tab menu. In hindsight, this might have been a better option since I could have just copied the working page that we already have for each tab. Or I could have done what I have tried to do: to use Dreamweaver's SpryTabbedPanel to make the tabs and insert a Flash player with links into each tab.
    The problem:
    1. The streams do not play. The player says "initializing" and then "please enter a stream name and play". Please note that I used SpryURLutils to get each link to open in the appropriate tab.
    2. After reading about the benefits of external vs. inline javascript, I took all of the inline javascript that was contained in Adobe's sample page and placed it in an external file. I tried placing the javascript back into the source code (inline), but this did not fix the problem. I guess there is a Javascript problem or I need extra Javascript code to get this to work.  The javascript code is below. Use view source in your web browser to see source code. Please let me know if I need to provide more information.
    Thanks.

    Should I have posted this in the Spry forum instead? My apologies if this is the wrong forum.
    >There is a sample application of the code included with the zip file  which shows how to implement it.
    The sample doesn't really tell me what I need to do to the code to make it work (I do not know javascript), and unfortunately, I have not found any helpful instructions/documentation online. You've given me the answer, I just don't know enough to implement it. This is what I've done:
    1. Placed the FAVideo.js file in my site folder and linked it to the page: <script src="FAVideo.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    2. I added the following code (taken from the SimpleDemo.html example inside the FAVideo folder). My comments in bold. Page at
    http://www.librarymedia.net/Flash2/videoplayer2.html?source=rtmp://63.116.232.6/vod/mp4:Ol ympics2010_640x480.mov
             <! To the <body> section:-->
    <body onLoad="">
        <div id="divOne"></div>
    <!-Do I have to place the entire page within the "divOne" div (or just the section containing the tabs) in order for the javascript to work?-->
             <!-In the <head> section: -->
       <script type="text/javascript">
            playerOne = new FAVideo("divOne", "TabbedPanels1", "demo_video.flv",0,0,{ autoLoad:true, autoPlay:true });
        </script>
    <!- I noticed that the body code added a div id called "divOne", so I added the "TabbedPanels1" div id to the above code thinking that this would apply the javascript code to all of the tabs. Dreamweaver adds <div id="TabbedPanels1" class="TabbedPanels"> to the page when you insert the tabbed menu, so I'm thinking the javascript has to point to either one of those for it to work. The "demo_video.flv",0,0 code is probably unneccesary, right? As you can see, I'm completely clueless. -->
        <script>
            playerOne.addEventListener("playheadUpdate",this,myHandler);
            playerOne.removeEventListener("playheadUpdate",this,myHandler);
            function myHandler() {
                //alert("eh");
        </script>
    </body>
    Once again, thanks for your help.

  • Flash Player 11.4.402.265 and Firefox 15/15.0.1 Not Compatible?

    I have mentioned this in two recent posts, but wanted to start a new thread to call attention to what I believe is an important issue.
    Starting with the update of Firefox 15, and continuing into version 15.0.1, my Firefox browser has logged a series of "silent" crashes.  By silent I mean that there was no visible sign that a crash had taken place.  I found out about them by typing about:crashes into Firefox's address bar.  (I actually do this about once per week just to make sure that there are no problems that should be addressed.)
    All of the crashes--and there were dozens--were "empty" in that no source could be identified.  Specifically, the following appeared at the top of each crash report:
    Firefox Crash Reports [@ EMPTY: no crashing thread identified; corrupt dump ]
    In addition, the crashes were intermittent.   I checked this out by constantly checking for new crashes after calling up various web sites.  For instance, I would would go to Google News, check for a crash report, go to a feature story, check for a crash report, watch a YouTube video, check for a crash report, close Firefox, open it, check for a crash report, etc.  What I found was that I often would visit 20 or more sites before a crash report was filed; however,  an average of  ten crashes appeared daily--again, all with NO indication of what had caused the crash. 
    At first, I could see no pattern, so I troubleshooted by enabling/disabling hardware acceleration for both Firefox and Flash Player, enabling/disabling cookies, enabling/disabling JavaScript, etc. I spent several hours doing this.
    I also scoured the various Firefox "help" forums, but it seemed that the same answers appeared on all of the forums, and they pretty much echoed the troubleshooting steps I had taken. (It seems that the major issue now is the fact that hardware acceleration causes Firefox 15.0.1 to crash for many users.)
    Finally, I noticed that I had been on a site containing an embedded flash video, just prior to a crash.  (Interestingly, I never received a crash report after watching a YouTube video on YouTube.)   I then tried disabling Protected Mode in Flash Player, which worked several months ago after the new "sandboxing" provision was introduced, and was found to be incompatible with the then-version of Firefox. So far, this has stopped all crashes.  After three days of normal usage and surfing, there have been no reports, whereas, prior to doing this, I was averaging at least one per hour. 
    This leads me to believe that the designers of the  latest version of Firefox have either omitted whatever code string was used to fix the problem that occurred last June, or some new, incompatible code has been included.    Either way, I think that this should be looked into by BOTH Adobe and Mozilla as soon as possible--but especially by Mozilla, since Flash Player 11.4.402.265 worked just fine with Firefox 14.0.1.
    It should be noted, by the way, that I did a recent check of Firefox's "top crashers" and the empty crash report is by far the most common--over 877,000 at the time I checked.  If I understood the graph, there has been an escallation since the introduction of version 15.0.  How many of them are silent, and therefore, unnoticed by the users, is anyone's guess, but I suspect that I'm not the only user on the planet this is happening to.
    In case it's needed, I'm using:
    Windows 7, Home Premium Service Pack 1 (Windows Classic user interface)
    Firefox 15.0.1
    Flash Player 11.4.402.265
    Hardware Acceleration disabled for both Firefox and Flash Player
    Since all of my crash reports, prior to disabling Protected Mode, were useless, I have deleted them.

    Message was edited by: Ortho_Fan  ADDED -- 9/15/12 --   I periodically check Windows 7's "Performance Monitor" and noticed today that one of the "silent crashes" was picked up by Windows.  The following details were posted:
    Description Faulting application name: firefox.exe, version: 15.0.1.4631, time stamp: 0x5047f9c5 Faulting module name: xul.dll, version: 15.0.1.4631, time stamp: 0x5047f93b Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x0010e567 Faulting process id: 0xc58 Faulting application start time: 0x01cd90439a1b1c12 Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe Faulting module path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\xul.dll Report Id: a2ad4a6b-fc37-11e1-830c-e0cb4efc1b05
    This appeared before I disabled Flash Player's Protected Mode, but coincides with one of the empty crashes reported in Firefox.  I know nothing about Windows crashes, where to find the reports, etc.

    Hi schützenkönig:
    Many thanks for posting!  As you can see, I made my initial post over a week ago, and since there were no responses, I thought perhaps I was the only one this was happening to!
    In any event, disabling Protected Mode is the only way I've found to prevent the crashes from happening.
    I posted about this on the mozillazine forum -- http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=2551745&sid=7e877237158ffdc560789fb668c 858c0 -- but didn't get very far.  Apparently, Firefox is blaming Adobe and has no plans to do anything about it.  I was given some reassurance, however, by the comment that adblock plus offers protection from harmful flash content.
    By the way, I made a follow on post when I downloaded the latest version of Flash Player -- 11.4.402.278  -- http://forums.adobe.com/message/4708561#4708561
    Unfortunately, it did nothing to fix the problem.

  • Flash Player isn't visible on web page

    After recently updating the Flash Player on my computer with the latest version, the player is no longer visible on many web pages; all that is visible is a blank white box. I've never had trouble with the player in the past. This problem seems restricted to the limited account since the player seems to work fine in the administrator account. I read the support page "Troubleshoot Flash Player Installation | Windows" at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html
    The page http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ says the player is successfully installed and shows the version information in the little box.
    With the browser closed and no other software open, I uninstalled the player twice using the uninstaller at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html After the first uninstall I downloaded the player with the Adobe Download Manager http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and after the second uninstall I downloaded the player with the manual installer http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html - EXE version. There were no download or installation errors.
    I verified the browser security and ActiveX settings and they were fine. I tried turning off the pop-up blocker, but that had no effect. I checked the browser for the status of the Flash Player add-on (Shockwave Flash Object  - 10.1.102.64) and it was enabled. I tried turning off the antivirus software (ESET NODE32), but that had no effect.
    The Global Storage Settings panel shows a check mark in the "Allow third-party Flash content to store data on your computer."
    http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager03.htm l
    Operating system: Windows XP Professional SP3 (32 bit)
    Web browser: Internet Explorer 8.0 (32 bit)
    Flash Player: 10.1.102.64

    This is an update to my original post. I uninstalled Flash Player 10.1.102.64 for the third time and downloaded and saved the previous version of Flash Player, 10.1.85.3, from here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html#main_Archived_versions I rebooted and ran the uninstaller a second time as per the readme.txt that came with the downloaded file which referenced this page http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/402/kb402435.html I rebooted again and installed Flash Player 10.1.85.3 which is working just fine. So, good riddance to the latest version of Flash Player (10.1.102.64). I will not consider updating again until they release the next version after 10.1.102.64.

  • Flash Player use to execute the main class entry point before rendering. Now it does not

    Adobe Flash Player use to execute the main class entry point before rendering the first frame. Now using the latest browsers and Flash Player 11.8 (11.8.800.94, or 11.8.800.97 for Chrome).
    With one of our swf apps, there are visual display objects on the first frame of the timeline. When the main class constructor is executed, those display objects are set to visible = false. So previously those display objects were never displayed because the first frame did not render until after the main class code was ran.
    Now when we browse to the our website, we find that those display objects are visible for a split moment of time (such as a quarter of a second).
    It appears that this may be a bug. We are wondering this could be new behavior based on loading/unloading the swf to optimize CPU usage and that Flash Player is taking a snapshot of the internal state of the first frame and displaying the cached snapshot before it actually loads.
    So...Chris (or other Adobe representative), is Flash Player supposed to be rendering the display before any code executes it runs the main class?

    Not that I'm aware of.  If this is something that just started with 11.8, then we could be running into some sort of bug injection.  Could you please open a new bug report on this over at bugbase.adobe.com?  When adding the bug, please include sample code, application or URL so we can quickly test this out internally.  If you'd like to keep this private, feel free to email the attachment to me directly ([email protected]). 
    Once added, please post back with the bug number and we'll investigate from there.

  • MP3 flash player not displaying in IE

    Hi all, I'm pretty new to flash and I'm unsure why this mp3 player isn't displaying on IE. It works fine on Firefox. I didn't originally create this, but am working on it after it was built. The code looks somewhat old and different to me, so I'm not sure if that's the reason it's breaking in IE. Usually when I see code for flash I see an <embed> tag. The code goes like this:
    <table>
                    <tr>
                        <td><h4>Audio Clips</h4></td>
                        <td width="60px;"><object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="LWMusicPlayer.swf" width="45" height="21" id="player-holder" style="visibility: visible;"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><param name="flashvars" value="mediaPath=CityofJazz.mp3"></object></td>
                            <td width="100px">City of Jazz</td>
                        <td width="60px;"><object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="LWMusicPlayer.swf" width="45" height="21" id="player-holder" style="visibility: visible; "><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><param name="flashvars" value="mediaPath=HappyDays-GetHappy.mp3"></object></td>
                            <td>Happy Days - Get Happy</td>
                        </tr>
                    </table>
    Does anyone know offhand what could be causing the problem?

    You mention Flash, but you are actually posting in the Flash Player forum.
    You would get more help if you posed in the Flash developers forum.

  • Embeded Flash player not working

    I have a browser-based app that we are considering porting to
    AIR. The basic functionality of the app uses AJAX to pull down a
    list of videos to be displayed, then plays the video when it is
    selected. The browser-based app uses Quicktime videos, which I have
    come to learn won't work in AIR, so I'm trying to switch to a Flash
    player.
    My problem is that for the life of me, I cannot get AIR to
    play the video. I created the player in Flash, and everything works
    great there, as well as in any browser I can find. When I load in
    AIR, I see the player, but playback never starts. My
    application.xml file is very simple:
    quote:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <application xmlns="
    http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/1.0"
    version="1.0">

    Hi Conrad!
    As you have no doubt already realized, using the Learning
    Interaction templates that are available in Flash MX / MX2004 and 8
    will not work at all in Presenter content.
    The coding methods conflict while playing back within the
    Breeze environment and I
    think it has to do with the _dropTarget property as part of
    the interaction's codebase. The _dropTarget method is NOT supported
    in Breeze, but the hitTest() method IS!
    I have written a few drag and drop exercises that do work
    within Breeze content, and you have to use the hitTest() method to
    accomplish it.
    As you already have discovered, the bottom line is that the
    learning components were intended to be "stand alone" objects that
    could be incorporated into a web page (or even a CD as these
    objects are nothing more than swf files). Aside from the fact that
    the prebuilt/preconfigured learning objects in flash don't always
    work in Breeze, in my mind, the bigger question here is the ability
    (or more accurately) the inability to connect these SCO's to an LMS
    for tracking. As stand alone objects, they're actually pretty
    handy...but not in Breeze.
    I realize this doesn't help much with what you're trying to
    do, but from my perspective, you're better off creating your own
    drag n' drops.
    I've got a bunch of examples to share if you'd like to take a
    look...just send me a PM or email if you're interested.

  • Flash animation working in program preview, not in browser with up to date Flash Player.

    After hitting next on this animation you can see there appears to be blank areas on the animation. If you mouse over them you will see buttons appear which is their "over state." When I publish the animation and preview it in Adobe Flash CS5.5 all the buttons are visible and work correctly. It is only in the brower (chrome, firefox, safari) with up to date Flash Player that is is not working. This is happening in a number of animations I created originally in CS4 last year, and am updating them as CS5.5 using AS3.
    My application is up to date.

    Are you loading those images externally?
    Can you share an example of you loading an external file if so? It should look similar to this:
    import flash.display.Loader;
    import flash.display.Sprite;
    import flash.events.Event;
    import flash.events.IOErrorEvent;
    var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
    myLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onErrorHandler);
    myLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onCompleteHandler);
    function onErrorHandler(e:IOErrorEvent):void
         // put some visual code here to tell yourself you have a load error
         // otherwise you'll never know
         trace(e);
    function onCompleteHandler(e:Event):void
         // add to display list if you wish (a Loader is a displayobject), or add it to a sprite and name it, etc
         addChild(e.target);
    If you're not checking for errors then you won't know it's not loading things properly. That is of course if you're loading external assets.

  • Really? Again? "The user does not have sufficient privileges to install Adobe Flash Player"

    My browser is firefox.
    "The user does not have sufficient privileges to install Adobe Flash Player" is the incessant problem I've had many times updating Flash.
    Come on guys, this is getting beyond ridiculous. The install always stops at 55% exactly, and never completes, leaving me to abandon Firefox for Chrome. I mucked about the last half a dozen times this happened during the update and just by sheer accident it managed to install, but it's been 2 hours of similar mucking about and I'm now getting nowhere.
    This has been a persistent problem and affected many firefox users for years now, as I've seen both by my own experience and by searching google. Isn't there a way you all can provide a single SIMPLIFIED solution to this issue, either by coordinating with firefox or by providing a Firefox "unique" installer? Really it's too infuriating.
    Anyway, before anyone asks, yes I'm logged on as the admin, and yes I've run the installer "as the admin" by right clicking. I've also gone ahead and completely uninstalled flash (and emptied the folders as requested in other threads here) and reinstalled, only to watch the progress bar halt at 55% as per usual and leave me clicking that stupid Chrome icon to have a working flash program.
    Honestly folks, why, after years, does this continue to be a persistent issue? Fix it for the love of God! Are you lot the guys doing the ObamaCare website or what? We firefox folks are loyal to our browser, and installing new versions of flash on this browser is an unnecessary bloody pain in the you know what.
    Sorry for the visible frustration, but if someone could please provide a universal working solution I wouldn't need to be on here whinging and moaning.

    I have had the same problem, but found that doing it this way, eradicated the issue for me-
    I am no computer expert and have experimented over time until i found what has worked for myself. 
    I hope this helps others to resolve this problem.
                                                If you are unsure, then please get somebody that has an idea what they are doing to prevent any accidental deletion of system files!!!!!!!
    This is a Microsoft windows 7 PC, not Apple Mac.
    slightly lengthy, but has stopped me pulling hairs out and stopped swearing at the computer.
    Allowed for me to open e learning that needed adobe to continue with learning.
    Firstly:
    Download the current uninstallerUninstaller for Windows
    Close all browser windows and run the uninstaller
    Restart Windows.
    Delete all remaining files and folders located in the following directories. (these directories are probably hidden away from sight)
        (tip: copy and paste ONE of these paths into the path/search bar in an Explorer window)
    C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash
    C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash (if you are using a 64-bit system)
    which should then display a white page with a top line in bold letters saying something like:-
    "Index of C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash\" as shown below:
    This INFORMATION is only needed for the location as to where these files are hidden so DO NOT !!!!! click on any of the folders within this browser, as they will download into the download folder and cause more problems.
    THIS WILL SHOW  WHERE THE FOLDERS ARE HIDING WITHIN THE COMPUTER ITSELF, BUT THEY ARE PROBABLY HIDDEN, UNTIL YOU UNHIDE THE FOLDER(S) THAT YOU NEED.
    MINIMIZE THIS SCREEN TO ONE HALF OF THE SCREEN, AND HAVE THE FOLDER OF THE COMPUTER ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SCREEN, SO THAT YOU CAN FOLLOW WITHOUT HAVING TO REMEMBER WHAT IS NEEDED TO BE DONE NEXT
    Secondly:
    Go onto DESKTOP
    double click on computer

  • The flash player installer does not start

    Operating system version:  Windows 7 32bit
    Web browser and version  Firefox 34.0
    A brief explanation of the problem, including exact error messages received
    When I try to start the installer it doesn't start visually. It  Meaning, it appears for several seconds as a process in the Task manager, but it closes after a few seconds.The windows prompts me if the program can make adjustments to my hard drive and I accept it.
    If I try to run it twice, in the short time window when it`s visible in the Task manager, there`s an error message that the installer is running.
    Please, if you have a suggestion why this is happening, share it with me.
    I apologize if there`s such topic available but I was not able to find it.

    Hi Georgi Filipov,
    Are you using the online installer (about 1.2 MB file size)?  If so, please try the offline installer, posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows page, in the 'Still having problems' section.  There are three different files and you'll want the one(s) that corresponds with the browser(s) you're using.
