Flash MX 2004 Sample *.fla files

I'm just learning flash using Flash MX pro 2004. The Flash
"help" refers to sample files such as "document_start.fla" Where
can I download these samples from?

After including 'hidden and system" files in my search, I was
able to locate the *.fla sample tutorial files for MX 2004 on my
computer.

Flash crashes when opening fla file

I've worked for quite some time on this file, and I will be quite heartbroken if I must do it again. :-(
OS: Windows 7 x64
Description: Flash "Adobe Flash CS5 has stopped working, Windows is checking for a solution to the problem..."
Files that Windows decided were important:
C:\Users\Joseph\AppData\Local\Temp\WER4C33.tmp.WERInternalMetadata.xml
C:\Users\Joseph\AppData\Local\Temp\WER9101.tmp.appcompat.txt
C:\Users\Joseph\AppData\Local\Temp\WERB286.tmp.mdmp
"Adobe Flash CS5 has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
This only happens when I open this specific fla file. I've attached it to this message, (download it here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1920393/map.zip (I didn't know which file to send so I sent all three that seemed to be related)) Really hoping someone can figure out how to save it! Bonus points if you tell me how this happened and how to avoid it in the future!
Thanks so much!

Hi Joseph,
I've looked into your file and it looks like what ever you have on Layer 7 causes Flash to crash. Once I remove that layer then the file open without issue. If you want a copy of the restored file, please send me an email at [email protected] Make sure to include a link to this thread in your email so I can relate back to this message.
Thanks,

Adobe Flash CS6 corrupted the .fla file that I made. Can someone from Adobe support recover my file?

I work on a brandnew Macbook pro with lot's of HD and memory, Yosemite version.
I bought Flash CS6 for 700 dollars. It hangs, it unexpectedly quits, but worse, it corrupts the file i have been working on for an entire day. It makes it 981kb and then says it fails to open it.
I want to know where can I get some customer service from Adobe. I paid for this software and I want to be able to send a ticket to the the support so they can figure out what went wrong and if they can recover my file. The file didn't even have 70 frames yet. But each frame had a drawings with pencil that are very detailed. So hence my frustration

1. periodically save your fla file with an appended version number so that never happens to you again. eg, yourproject_01.fla, yourproject_02.fla etc. that policy (saving frequently with appended version numbers) is a good idea with all software, adobe or otherwise.
2. to prevent future crashes/hangs, reset your flash pro preferences, Re-create preferences.
3. don't force the termination of a flash save unless you have little to lose. you should allow, at least, 2 minutes or you're likely to corrupt your fla by doing that.
4. you may be able to recover your fla by renaming it to a rar and using winrar to repair it. that's a long shot but occasionally works.
5. adobe support's not likely to offer you much help, but if you want to try contact adobe support by clicking here and, when available, click 'still need help', https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html

Can Flash MX 2004 handle Director files (.dir)

Hi,
Can Flash handle Director movies? I am making a presentation
of my artworks in Flash environment; I have both Flash and Director
movies. I know that I can import all my swf movies into Director
MX2004 to create a standalone projector and play both swf and dir
movies in Director MX 2004. Does the same work if I import dir
files into Flash MX 2004 Pro?
Thanks
Uti

Hi Uttam,
If you need Director movies to be integrated with Flash
movies, there is only one
way, use Director. If you don't have Director, then you won't
be able to use the
Director movies. So, either, recreate the Director movies in
Flash (if it's
possible), or better yet, get Director

Insert flex component in flash .fla file

hello,
Is it possible to dynamically load a flex component, compiled as a swf file into a .fla file.
Originally, this flex component can be loaded as a standalone flex application with parameters to connect to the appropriate server.
But now a customer of mine wants to integrate this flex component (originally inserted in a flex application) in a custom flash application, thus in .fla file using Adobe Flash CS4.
I've seen that it was possible to integrate a flash animation created with Adobe Flash CS4 in a flex application. But what I need to do is the opposite.
thanks for your help,
yohann

I also have an odd behavior with parameters. I use a parameter to display a text area for logs. If this parameter is found, the text area is displayed, if it's not found, nothing is displayed. When I load my application with CTRL + ENTER in CS4, I can see my debug text area, but when I export it to swf, copy it to a local web server and visualize it in a browser, I see no debug text area.
Here is the code I'm using:
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.events.Event;
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://1.2.3.4/callme.swf?server=1.2.3.4&caller=abc&callee=yohann.martineau");
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.load(request);
addChild(loader);
This code is in a key frame of the fla animation.

Le flash n'a été jamais supporté sur l'IOS.

Sample iOS files?

I'm looking for a sample FLA file so I can just do a quick publish and preview on iPhone to see how the whole process goes. I just bought CS5.5 and I can't seem to find any tutorial FLA files anywhere. Either I'm not looking in the right place or they do not exist. Also couldn't find any via Googling.
Help?

I've found Flah files available wih some books helpful. Admittedly they aren't CS5.5 but the following might be helpful because both have downloadable sample files available...

"Professional Flash Mobile Development" by Richard Wagner
Hope that's of help

Opening a .fla file

Is it possible to open a fla file when shockwave is installed on your computer? I have a .fla file that I created in flash cs5. But I no longer have the cs5 flash application. What do I need to open this file without the cs5 app?

Shockwave has nothing to do with either Flash or its associated .FLA files. It is the browser plugin for Director-created content.
And to attempt an answer to your question, even with the Flash Player installed (Shockwave Flash) you won't be able to open .FLA files - you need the Flash authoring application

Trouble opening Flash MX 2004 files in CS3

Has anyone encountered any problems trying to open orignal
.fla files created in Flash MX 2004 in the CS3 version? I get an
error stating "unexpected file format".

I tried opening your test file in my version of CS3 and it
shut it down completely - CS3 quit
unexpectedly. Rare for me as I have been using/testing CS3
for months and not seen this issue - i
suspect the file is corrupt in some way but then again it
would open in flash 8 - can you save as
from flash 8 with a new name and upload again?

How in Flash CS4 to change text words of .fla file from a website template?

I have a website template in which I am trying to change the header text words and menu text words to customize the template. How do I do this in Flash CS4? Thanks!

There are any number of ways these text elements might have been designed into the file. So you pretty much have to search for things. If you do not see the text that you want to change when you open the fla file, then you may need to either make some layers visible that are not (eyeball icon next to layer name) or you may need to look into the actionscript code to see if the text is being dynamically written when the file opens. If you happened to receive any .as, .txt, or .xml files with the template, the text elements may also be defined in those files.
Just so you know, and this is just an observation, it appears from experience in these forums that template designers tend to make templates so that you are more likely to hire them to update things than to be able to solve it yourself.

How can I convert a flash object on a webpage to a fla file?

I made a flash effect for my friend's site and he won't let me get the flash back after a fight. I can see the effect on the homepage of his website. Is there any way I can get the flash to an fla file on my computer? Is there any way I can find the swf file on his websites system and convert it to an fla? Please help, thanks.

Open the web page where this swf is placed then go for the source code by right clicking on page anywhere. Then find the name of the swf file like if the name is myFlash.swf then search it but if you do not know the name then just search .swf you will get the file path on your friend's web. like it would be yourFriendWeb.com/flash/flashFile.swf or what ever is the name. Then copy the link and paste on your web browser and when the swf is opened then save it by going to File menu.
Now you have the swf file on your PC. Now the task is to convert it to fla. This thing can be done by a flash decompiler like Flash Decompiler Trillix. Decompiling will end up with your orignal fla file.

(How can we) Import Flash Professional .FLA file format?

How can we import a Flash Professional .fla file format into Flash Catalyst? It would appear that we can't...at least not yet! I have added this as a feature request within the adobe labs site for Catalyst. Someone at Adobe suggested that I also explore the forums, so here we are. If you would also like to have this feature added, please let Adobe know by promoting the
idea.
Our use case is this: we have a large Flash file with a library of over one thousand skins and assets that were built in Flash with Adobe's Flex Skins Templates. These stateful, graphical skins were used within a custom theme by several Flex 3 projects.
Now that we are looking to migrate to FlashBuilder 4, and start to use Spark components, we are trying to find a workflow that allows us to use Adobe tools and to reuse our existing vector artwork. Since we have such a large number of assets, we are exploring various approaches, including the use of JSFL. So far we haven't found a good way to migrate from Flash-built skins for Flex 3 to Catalyst-built skins for FlashBuilder 4.

Hi Ajay,
See attached V 7.0 example...
Hope it helps,

Getting Error in opening a fla file in flash 8

Hi I use flash 8 to edit my projects, recently I got a website related to music downloads and it was built in flash, now when I try to edit the fla file it opens up in flash 8 but I cannot see the library and when I edit it and make some changes in it it saves but it doesnt work like the original one.
any suggestion would be really helpful.
I think it has something to do with older/newer version of flash ?

If it's a flash cs3 fla, then you might have a lot of problem since cs3 has new features that flash8 cant take care of.

NON-Flash User Wants to Edit and "Recompile" an SWF or FLA file...help??

Hello!! Although I am NOT new to Mac, I have NEVER attempted to edit an SWF file and I'm seeking an EASY way to do so. I think I might be CLOSE but I'm wasting time trying to figure it out so I'm posting here for some help...hopefully!! :-))
I also apologize because I did NOT know where to post this question so KINDLY direct me if I have posted in the wrong place!
Soooo, I have an complete, original .swf flash movie. It is a Holiday greeting but the VERY LAST frame has text that is NOT RELEVANT and I wish to change that text.
It appears that the text I want to change is (I do NOT know the correct term) a "layer" of graphic content for the last frame.
So, I have done TWO THINGS: I have used the Flash Decompiler app to (1) create an .fla file and (2) DECOMPILED the entire .swf extracting ALL the resources/objects that are used to create the original .swf animation. I have NO IDEA what to do with the .fla file...I know it is used to edit the animation but I do not have software to manipulate the file.
BUT, in the decompiled files, I HAVE LOCATED the one resource...a TEXT RESOURCE...that I wish to change. This extracted text resource is named "Dynamic text 293.swf", saved as in .swf format.
Now HERE is where I am STUCK!!...and I THINK this is the direction I would like to go:
1. Open the Dynamic text 293.swf file in a format that allows me to EDIT THE TEXT I wish to change. HOW DO I DO THAT?? Can I convert it to a jpeg, edit the text, and then BACK to an .swf file?? Can I simply CREATE a JPEG and somehow SAVE IT as an .swf file to REPLACE the Dynamic text 293.swf file? Is there an EASIER/DIFFERENT way to edit the text in this Dynamic text 293.swf file?
2. After editing the text in the Dynamic text 293.swf file, HOW DO I "RECOMPILE" the folder of alllll the extracted resources from the original .swf animation, NOW with this NEW/EDITED Dynamic text 293.swf file, and RECREATE the full .swf with the changes I made??
Again, I do NOT have FLASH or MACROMEDIA or any of those apps :-/ I DO have the .fla file conversion AND have isolated the SINGLE extracted resource file (Dynamic text 293.swf) that I want to edit.
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR YOUR HELP Greatly appreciated!!
Scott

That's a problem, since the format changes between jpg and swf when converted
probably won't just go back to their previous state, less the changed section.
The converter you have, is it a freeware to convert swf to fla; or what does it say
that it can do? In some cases, a flash video can be copied (perhaps illegally)
through use of a software such as Ambrosia's SnapZ ProX and a movie of any-
thing playing on your Mac can be copied. So, a movie could be paused at the
end where the unwanted content exists, so the copy would not have it recorded.
Snapz ProX - Ambrosia Software: (not freeware, has 'free trial' version)
http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utilities/snapzprox/
Otherwise, there are a few shareware and freeware editors for swf content; to
some degree or another they either convert content or allow some editing.
And this may only work as far as the item's creator allowed, if the file is locked.
' swf fla freeware editor Mac OS X ' - google search:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=swffla+freeware+editor+Mac+OS+X&btnG=GoogleSearch&aq=f&oq=
I'd tried some basic editing of swf files a few years ago, and was able to only
convert the string of images into single-frame jpgs and work on each one,
but could not get them back into an swf. Perhaps graphic converter or other
software could do something for these; but I am inexperienced in all that.
Good luck & happy computing!

Flash crashes every time I open an fla file

I installed a trial version of Flash CS3. I had a Flash 8
Professional already installed. Every time I tried to open a fla it
crashed, so I uninstalled both versions and reinstalled. I still
have the same problem. I can't open existing fla files or create
new fla files. This is important to my work so I would appreciate
any help.
