Flash Movie will not display in Dreamweaver

A movie that I created with Flash CS6 will not play in a webpage that I created in Dreamweaver CS6. When I select "Live" in Dreamweaver, I get a prompt to download the Flash 11.7 player. I've downloaded this player several times, and the movie still does not play in DW. The movie displays when select play in Flash.
How can I get the movie to play in Dreamweaver?

More to the point: Does it play in any browser on your system? If not, you may have to fix that first. In nay case, ask your question in the DW forum and provide more details like soem system information to begin with...

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.

Latest flash version will not display images or video

Latest flash version will not display images or video in 2 x Windows 7 Pro 64bit machines, 1 x Windows 7 Home Premiums, and 1 x XP SP3 under VMWare Workstation 7. Problem plagues Firefox, Chrome, and IE on all systems. Also running Norton Security from Comcast on all machines. Disabling does not appear to help. Suggestions?

Not sure, this is the one that I really want to view. I am using the latest 11.6 ending in 168. Curious you got the images. The product ones act like they should be displaying for me but don’t. Can you do a capture of the images? The text with small images sometimes comes through and sometimes not. I wonder if there is a problem on the server end.
When I talk to the Customer Service people they claim to have no reports of problems, but like the sports pro about to be traded, they may be the last ones to know…

Banner image will not display in Dreamweaver; can you help?

Banner image will not display in Dreamweaver; can you help?

If the banner image is not displaying, it is either not in an acceptable web file format (optimized for web as jpg, gif or png). Or it is corrupted. Or the path to the image file on server is broken.
It's impossible to say more without a link to your problem page.

Certain flash movies will not play - including Adobe TV movies with Dreamweaver tutorials

For months, certain .swf movies will not play. No error, won't even load the player. I thought it was because of IE8 which I installed several months ago. Now I loaded Firefox and Opera and the movies still do not play in those browsers either. At least I get an error message "TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference".
I have newly installed Dreamweaver CS4 and when I launch it, there are links to Adobe TV videos. These will not play. Here is an example of a video that will not play: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/inside-the-dreamlabs/dreamweaver-cs4-live-preview/
I have googled the error but the results seem to be developers talking about code in Action Script 3.
Can someone please help? I have spent hours trying to get this resolved.
My Flash Player version is 10,0,45,2 and I had the issue when I was at 10,0,32 whatever as well.

Ya, it's a very old post. This forum actually has a very high response rate (more than 90%+) thanks to people like Pat, Carl and Xircal who volunteer their time and knowledge to help the community.

Flash movie will not show or work on server???

Seems to be a popular thread here,,,,,
I have 3 web sites on my hosting server 1 has a small flash movie which works fine
i tried adding another to the 2 other sites and nothing !!!! Exactly the same thing as the one that works, the movie will not even show
on the screen that is its just bland usually you get a red x or something but nothing ???? Any ideas the puszzling thing is that the one site
it works fine on but the other two it doesn't. has there been an IE update that i am unaware of that might stop this gfrom working ????
i am at a loss here thank
M2m

The usual causes involve missing files or misnamed files. Can you provide links to the web pages that are not displaying properly?

Flash Movie will not play

I cant seem to get a flash movie to play. It was originally a
MPG that I
first tried convertinng to a flash movie via the Flash Video
Encoder...that
does not seem to want to play.
Then I imported the MPG file into flash, converted it to a
SWF...and I can
play it on my decktop, but will not play once uploaded. I can
play it in DW,
but not on the web.
I know there is something there..
Anyone have a suggestion??

Ok, I have uploaded the clearoverplaysedmute.swf and the
corresponding fla
file... What am I still not doing or doing wrong?
Thanks again for your help

Embedded application/x-shockwave-flash objects will not display

4.0b9 on Windows XP
I just get a white section where a shockwave flash object should be, and in all the occurences I've found it's when the flash object is embedded. Youtube works just fine, though...
In the "white section" I can right-click and get the options for Adobe Flash Player 10, but I cannot actually choose any of the menu options.
In some cases, I can choose to display the flash object in another tab, and then it works just fine. Typically an embedded youtube movie clip acts like that that, but not always.
In an example, I see only a white section where the shockwave flash object should be visible in Pichfork TV - http://pitchfork.com/tv/
When I open the page information, in the media section, list of URL's, I find an URL that is both grey and italic, and describes this URL as type Embedded:
URL - http://pitchfork-cdn.s3.amazonaws.com/player/DelveMoviePlayer.swf
Type - application/x-shockwave-flash
I assume this URL is grey and italic because it is not loaded or opened in the pitchfork TV site.
This is the same problem with most embedded flash objects, and I really hope someone can help me! I've browsed aroud the support forums and tried a lot of different tips, but to no avail.
I have of course uninstalled and reinstalled both flash player and shockwave from adobe's site, and made sure it's not the active-x version for IE that's installed.
My add-in manager claims that Shockwave Flash 10.1 r102 is installed and enabled, and the release is the latest available according to adobe.com.
I have also tried to open FF in secure/private mode, but same problem in both modes.
Just to check, I tried to open this site with IE8, and there it displays correctly (and I also remembered why I don't ever use IE8, haha...), so apparently the active-x part of shockwave/flash works...
BR, Torgeir

OK, so now I've tried again to open FF in safe mode again, but the problem is still unsolved. Same problem in safe mode.
The hardware acceleration in the flash player is set to disabled long before I posted this problem.
I didn't know that Pitchfork had such a special flash player, but the problem is the same on any sites. Just chose Pitchfork because it's an English site. Bad example then...
Here's a better example: NME.com:
http://www.nme.com/musicvideos/my-chemical-romance-sing/832454
Here I only see a white space where the flash object is embedded (if it really IS embedded, I dont't know how these things work). But I can right-click and get the dialog for Adobe Flash Player 10 properties (such as settings and global settings), and if I'm lucky to hit the start button (wich I don't see), the flash object starts playing, and I hear all sound but see no image.
I open the page info menu, and here I find in the list of media URL's the link to the flash object, described as an embedded object in the NME site:
URL: http://www.muzu.tv/player/getPlayer/a/RSFVcmvHJ4/autostart=n&includeAll=y&soundoff=n&vidId=832454&videotype=hq
Type: application/x-shockwave-flash
It's grey and italic in the list of media URL's, and I assume that's because it's not properly loaded.
But if I copy the URL from the media URL list and paste it into the adress field of a new tab, I can both see and hear the flash object without a problem.
This is exactly the same issue with local sites that have embedded web radio stations. Cant see the object, and have to be quite lucky to hit the start button. But by stepping via info for site and copy the URL to the flash object and paste it into a new, empty tab, I can both see and hear whatever was supposed to display in the original site.
Any help would be more than welcome! So many of the sites I use most has embedded flash objects, so if I cannot solve this I have to find another browser. I REALLY don't want to, because otherwise I really love FF...

Flash content will not display with Player: 10.3.183.7

Hello,
I helped to design a website last year in Flash based off a template purchased from myflashxml.com. Up until the latest version of flash 10.3, all seemed to work ok. As soon as upgrading to 10.3, we see the shift up to the left on the intro and then no content displayed on the actual website (two different flash files).
I understand the issue with the shifting to the left, but I cannot seem to figure out the problem with the second flash file not loading anything, just simply a blank black screen. I have uninstalled 10.3 using the uninstaller, installed archived versions of flash player and the archived versions work properly, even on IE9. As soon as I upgrade the latest flash version, I begin to see the same issues.
I am currently running a few different computers with a few different setups. I have tried this on multiple machines with the following setups:
All are Intel processors.
Windows 7 Professional 64bit (icore5)
IE8, IE9, Firefox
Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit (core 2 duo)
IE8, Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari
Windows 7 Professional 64bit (core 2 duo)
IE8, Firefox
If anyone has any suggestions as to what to try, I am completely open. Please let me know if you need more information.

Could you send the swf's that aren't loading to [email protected]? I'll take a look and see if I can spot any issues.
Thanks,
Chirs

Flash player will not display any content, IE 7

Need help troubleshooting this issue.
When launching a video IE 7 keeps request to install the
latest version.
I have installed the latest version, it appears that it is
install ok, however no videos will play, I keep getting requested
to install the latest version.
I have set the permissions to "full control" suggested on
this forum, however that did not correct the problem.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions,
Marnie

I found a solution for my issue. I reset the "shockwave"
paramter in IE 7 to enable. Some how Shockware and Flash play are
dependent or interconnected. Once I change "Shockware" to be enable
the video worked. I did not have to reinstall, just restart the
browser. Some how Shockware got disabled, not sure how or when,
this is a mystery. Anyone any thoughts or insight into this issue,
or know how Shockware is related to Flash player?

Flash video will not display properly

I've followed all the instructions on the Mozilla website, but Flash videos displayed within Firefox still appear pixelated and purple in color. The same site in IE looks fine. I have the latest version of Flash installed.
== URL of affected sites ==
http://youtube.com

Flash version 10.1.d51 (shown in your plug-ins as "Shockwave Flash 10.1 d51) is a <u>'''pre-release'''</u> version (not fully tested; should be used only by developers and qualified testers). See: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/ ~~red:and~~ http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/releasenotes.pdf
Maybe you should report the problem here: http://bugs.adobe.com/flashplayer/
You <u>'''may'''</u> be using a publicly released version in IE (the latest as of today is version 10.0.45.2). Open IE, click Tools, click Manage Add-ons, choose "Show" and change to All Add-ons, scroll down and look for Shockwave Flash Object, look for version column.
<u>'''NOTE:'''</u> Firefox and most other browsers use a plug-in version of Adobe Flash (and other software) while IE uses an ActiveX version of Flash which Firefox does not use. See: [[ActiveX]] . When updating some products, you need to update for Firefox and IE <u>'''separately'''</u>.
If you want to remove the pre-release version of Flash for Firefox and install the latest released version, the instructions are below.
<u>'''Remove pre-release version'''</u>
Try to remove the <u>'''pre-release'''</u> version of Flash you have installed for Firefox. Close Firefox, then, using Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs, look for "Adobe Flash 10 Plugin", choose Remove. After the removal is complete, it is a good idea to reboot your computer to assure that the removal is complete.
<u>'''Install/Update Adobe Flash Player for Firefox'''</u>: your ver. 10.1.d51 (~~red:pre-release~~); current ver. 10.0 r45
See: '''[http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+the+Flash+plugin#Updating_Flash Updating Flash]'''
-'''<u>use Firefox to download</u>''' and <u>'''SAVE to your hard drive'''</u> (save to Desktop for easy access)
-exit Firefox (File > Exit)
-check to see that Firefox is completely closed (''Ctrl+Alt+Del, choose Task Manager, click Processes tab, if "firefox.exe" is on the list, right-click "firefox.exe" and choose End process, close the Task Manager window'')
-double-click on the Adobe Flash installer you just downloaded to install/update Adobe Flash
-when the Flash installation is complete, start Firefox, and test the Flash installation here: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_15507&sliceId=1
*<u>'''NOTE: On Vista and Windows 7'''</u> you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). See this: http://vistasupport.mvps.org/run_as_administrator.htm
*'''<u>NOTE for IE:</u>''' Firefox and most other browsers use a Plugin. IE uses an ActiveX version of Flash. To install/update the IE ActiveX Adobe Flash Player, same instructions as above, except use IE to download the ActiveX Flash installer.

Rented movie; will not display; native video app will not display any of my videos

I rented a movie last night using the iTunes Store app on my iPad. The movie just barely started, then froze. Now the native video app doesn't work at all. I can tell that it's "on" when I touch the "video" app -- the screen displays nothing, but it's dimly lit. Help! Has anyone else had this problem?

Carolyn: I was able, through more research in the discussion groups, to find a solution that resolved my problem! In the HD>applications folder>safari>get info I checked the "open in 32 bit mode" box. Then I went to Adobe Reader>preferences>Internet and unchecked the box "display PDF in browser using" [Adobe Reader 9.3.3]. I then closed my Safari Browser, restarted the computer and, happy days are here again! On my older G5 I only had to set the preferences on the Adobe Preferences, as Safari 5.0.1 only appears to work in 32 bit mode, as the 32 bit mode check box was not there. You may want to pass this on to other users with the same or similar problems.

Safari will not display flash sites

safari will not display flash sites? Instead it will show a small box that says "flash" and once you click on it, it then displays the flash site!!
Any ideas as to why this is happening?
I am running .....
Vendor: Oracle Corporation
Version: Java SE 7 Update 25
and
Flash Player: 11.8.800.94

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.
