Flash loading slowly on website

Hi,
I created a website in dreamweaver that has flash elements to
it, however when I view my website it takes awhile for the flash to
load, the flash is a image viewer that contains jpegs of images, do
I need to use lower resolution images? How can I tell if my flash
file is too big? Please help.
Thanks

Your swf file seems small (as in pixel dimension). Is the
original Flash file this size or have you reduced the Flash file
size in DW? If the pixel dimensions for your Flash document are
500x500 but in DW you reduce to 200x200, then yes, your Flash file
may be larger than it really appears on this website. For example,
on Event Plannin, you have 5 images. Do you have all 5 images
within that Flash file or are you loading the images seperately
once they rollover the thumbnail (which is what I would recommend).
Either way, you should still have some form of preloader so people
won't be looking at a blank screen while it loads (if they have a
slow connection).
How high is your resolution on your images?

  • Main image loads slowly on website

    How do I fix the fact that the main image on my web pages loads slowly on any web browser?  I created each main image in Photoshop and made sure each was 72 dpi and was its layers were flattened.  Is there some kind of code I need to add?  I heard something about adding java script.
    Please let me know.

    Images should be resized to the size required on your web page(s).  Save for Web as optimized JPGs.  The smaller the file size, the faster your page load speed.

  • Website Flash Loading Slowly Help

    Hi,
    I have recently launched a site for a client which includes an interactive flash element on the home page but it takes a long time to load (10-30seconds). I have followed advice from others about keeping image small and link movies rather than embed but still slow, the swf file is about 7.9mb which i thought was ok for the size of flash file.
    Does anyway else know where I have gone wrong whether it be the embedding or some other area.
    I would appreciate any help/advice I can get, the site is wiggin .co.uk
    Cheers

    Thanks for the reply....
    I have gone through and done all except loading the images externally as I am not sure how to do this, I have got the file down to 6.8mb so saved about a 1MB, but cant see much difference in load time though..
    regarding loading images externally how do i go about this with the last disruption to the current animation, the flash is made up of lots of elements that took ages to compose, is there a way to just direct flash to look for all the images in a folder without editing the timeline, then i can clear the library? (or am i just dreaming..)

  • Flash loading too slowly on webpage

    I've got a problem with the flash content on my website. I
    have got preloaders on all the swf files on my site but it takes a
    while before the preloader starts playing and I would like to know
    why. When I click on some of the files there is a blank background
    for quite a few seconds before the percent loaded preloader starts
    and by the time it starts the content is already about 50% loaded.
    Why doesn't it start showing from 0% loaded? Could someone perhaps
    help me with this? Thx.

    Well I don't have an answer for you yet your preloader worked
    perfectly when I viewed your file. That may have soemthing to do
    with the fact that I am using Broadband.

  • Firefox loading slowly including other websites, freezes

    When I open firefox it loads slowly. When I try to go to another site it slows/freezes. What can I do to fix this. Also in the help tab it only give me the option for troubleshooting information. No reload, restart option.

    I suspect that the search value in your setup is invalid.
    Could you please do the following.<br><br>
    #In the location bar where you normally type in a web address, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter.<br><br>
    #If you see a window which says "This might void your warranty!", click the button which says "I'll be careful, I promise" so you can continue with the next step.<br><br>
    #In the filter at the top, type: '''keyword.URL'''<br><br>
    #Double click it and remove whatever's in there and replace it with http://www.google.com/search?q= and then click OK.<br><br>
    #Close the tab<br>
    The URL to add in "keyword.URL" becomes a link in this post, so right click it and choose "Copy Link Location" to copy it to the Windows clipboard. Then hit CTRL+V to paste it. Saves you having to type the whole thing.<br><br>
    '''To reset your home page, do the following'''.<br><br>
    * Go to the site you want to set as your homepage.<br><br>
    * Click the Firefox button, go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''.<br><br>
    * Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu.<br><br>
    * Click the button called "'''Use Current Pages'''" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen.<br><br>
    If this step fixes the problem for you, please click the '''Solved it''' button next to this post after you log in into the forum. This will help others searching for a solution to the same subject.
    Thanks.

  • Images and objects loading slowly

    I built my personal website with Adobe Muse (http://www.tylerburton.me/) and there are a few issues I would like to fix. The main problem is certain images and objects seem to load slowly and weirdly when I navigate to the pages. The green navigation bar at the top of the screen as well as the background of my portfolio or the two main examples. Any advice would be much appreciated.

    For the two background images, create the faded effect in Photoshop and save the images as JPEG prior to importing into Muse.
    At present these two images are either transparent to begin with or have transparency applied in Muse to create the faded effect. That works visually, but results in Muse converting the images to PNG (to support the transparency) and PNG is roughly 5 times larger than a reasonable quality JPEG for this type of image. If you flatten the effect into an opaque version of the image in Photoshop, then JPEG format can be used.
    I'm not seeing unusual loading of the header bar, but you might be seeing FOUT (Flash Of Unstyled Text)? It can/will occur if the browser first draws the page before the Web Fonts have loaded. The exact behavior depends on connection speed, the browser used and no doubt other factors.

  • Videos Loading Slowly!

    Hi,
    I was viewing quicktime videos on a website today and all of sudden everything started loading slowly. I immediately went to disk utilities and ran it. Still the videos ran slowly. I even did Diskwarrior and shut down/restarted my computer and still they are loading at a very slow rate. Is there something else I can do? Why are the videos loading slowly? I've checked my internet speed on websites like msnbc.com and my business website which has flash videos and they worked fine. I also had someone send me another quicktime video which although it didn't load promptly was playing in less than 7 seconds.

    Post a link/URL of the slow loading video website.

  • Flash loading very slow in IE 9 with latest updates

    Dear Members
    Hello to all members myself is Kaustav Banerjee from India and I am into a manufacturing business. Recently I have developed our company's website through a professional website designing company but unfortunately I am having serious issues with Flash in IE 9.
    Let me tell you the details
    Flash version 11.1.102.55 ( The latest version )
    IE 9  version 9.0.8112.16421 ( The latest version)
    Our website  - www.ideasincrafts.com
    OS Version ( WIN 7 32 bit )
    The problem I am having is the website takes very long time to load the flash animation and when somebody opens the home page in IE 9 the user only looks at a flash placeholder with borders. Sometimes the flash loads and sometime it doesn't. Also when the user clicks on the links of the website the flash loading procedure starts again and its quite frustrating.
    The weird thing is the flash displays properly on the other browsers like Firefox and Google chrome.
    I really hope you members can guide us through this issue as the web designing company I am working with doesn't have a clue at all why this is happening.
    I am attaching the image of the problem.
    Thanks with best regards
    Kaustav Banerjee

    My MacBook Pro (OS 10.7.2) will not load some sellers websites that bounce through yahoo.  Other Macs on same network work fine.  I have reset Safari, tried other browsers, eliminated cookies..... to no avail.  All computers running 10.7.2.  I have reset Safari, tried other browsers, trashed out cookies.  This has me baffled.  My other macs running the same OS version work fine.  Flash is up to date and have done the current software update.  Any help please.  I have not blocked any sites and am administator for all machines.  I have tried signing in as Guest.  Nothing works. 

    After searching other users questions with related problem, I found that VirusBarrier 6 was the issue.  Reconfigured settings there and problem solved.

  • Applications load slowly on imac after Mavericks clean install

    After a clean install of Mavericks, my late 2009 imac runs more slowly compared to how it ran under Snow Leopard.  Applications like "Settings" take a few seconds to load, whereas under snow leopard, the application would load almost instantly.  The Novabench score now is around 771, and matches about what I measured after the clean Mavericks install, but appears low compared to scores for similarly configured systems running Snow Leopard.  The system is quite usable, especially if applications are left open, just slower.  Is it possible to identify from Etrecheck a possible explanation?  Is this level of degradation of performance expected when upgrading an old system?  Thank you for your help.

  • Cannot load iweb created website onto iphone.

    Cannot load iweb created website with iphone. I have tried with 2 iphones and they couldnt load the page. I also have tried with windows 7 internet explorer, safari and in Leopard also, they'dd all work.
    All I get from my iphone is : Safari could not open the page because the server has stopped responding.

    I think I found your problem Safari on the iPhone does not like "framesets"
    Safari on iPhone does not support:
    Events: mouseover and mouseout, including :hover styles and tool tips, (but it does support onclick and event listeners). Safari on the iPhone does not support the document events of onkeydown, onkeypress and onkeyup, the form-field events of ondblclick, onmouseenter, onmouseleave, onmousemove, and onSelect, and the window events of onresize and onScroll. This is not an exhaustive list, so test your event handlers before listening to me.
    window.showModalDialog()
    Plug-ins: Flash or Java, and plug-in installations. Do not ask users to download Flash.
    File-size: Non-streaming files of over 10MB. CSS, JavaScript and HTML files are limited to 10MB per file. JavaScript is limited to 5 seconds of execution time. Safari for the iPhone does support gzip compression, so compress!
    The iPhone does not support gifs, png or tiffs over 8 MB and jpgs over 128 MB (but does support larger streaming media files).
    You can use iFrames, but avoid framesets.
