Flash only working in IE, not in Mozilla or others

I can only see Flash content in IE, but not in Firefox,
Camino, Safari and any other. Using MacOS X, and i tried solving it
in QuickTime prefs, in each browser pref, but still nothing. Any
clue?
This started like a week ago, i think when upgrading
QuickTime but i'm not so sure.

install flash player for all browsers.

Flash only works for one user

Using IE7. I have three users on my computer. All
have Administrator level access. Flash only works for one of them.
When attempting to play a video on YouTube for example it says "You
either have JavaScrip turned off or an old version of Adobe Flash
Player."
JS is turned on and the current version of Flash Player is
installed.
So does anyone know what is going on here?
Thanks

I was able to fix my problem of Flash only working on user
account. I did the following two steps to correct the problem:
1. First uninstall the Adobe Flash Player plug-in and ActiveX
control by following the instructions stated in
tn_14157.
2. Second Download SubInACL from Microsoft to fix permission
issues that prevent the Flash Player installation by following the
instructions stated in
fb1634cb.
Following the above two steps, fixed my problem of only
having Flash run on only one user account. Now it runs on all four
user accounts.
As a side note: The Flash Player plug-in and ActiveX control
would not run in user accounts with Limited access. But when I set
the permission of the user account to administrative, then Flash
would work.

I recently purchased the 16GB 5s. I didn't notice this before, but when I attempt to take a photo with the flash in the "on" position, the flash only works sporadically when I take a picture with the phone vertical. Anyone else with this problem?

Flash site works locally but not online (uploaded to server)

We have bought a flash portfolio template and have customized it with our pictures, video, etc.
When we test it locally on our computer (using different web browsers) it all works perfectly well. We have uploaded the finished website to our server and when you go to the address online, it doesn't work (a loader progress shows but it is stopped and nothing happens).
We have however uploaded the original template we bought and it works perfectly online.
The template consists of and index.html, various .swf, and various .xml that we have modified according to the template instructions (it also contains a java script folder we haven't touched).
What is it wrong with our modified template - it works locally without problem…!
Thanks for your help

When a Flash file works locally but not on-line, it's almost always a pathing issue (provided you did upload ALL files and do not have something missing... as suggested by Ned).
A "pathing issue" results when the main .swf cannot find one or more of the associated Flash files...like an xml file or images.
It can be something as simple as using switching file names to all lower case. Local machine is not case sensative... most servers are. So "My Photo.JPG" is not the same as "my_photo.jpg". When naming files, best to use all lower case, no spaces in any file or folder names... use_underscore_instead.
But the most common cause is that those associated files (xml, images, etc.) are not pathed relative to the Web page where the main .swf is embedded. Pathing to the .xml and image files should be as though the .swf was located in the same folder as the Web page... NOT the actual location of the .swf file.
And that includes paths to the xml file and paths to image files coded into those xml files. Everything need to be coded relative to the Web page.

Adobe Flash only works when I run Firefox in Admin Mode

As the title says, I need to run Firefox in admin mode each time for Adobe Flash to work.
When I do not run it in admin mode, and I visit say Youtube, the box where the flash player should appear flickers and just does not load. The HTML5 version eventually loads instead.
When I visit the adobe flash test page it does not work either. Only when I run in admin mode it works fine.
Problem is I do not want to run Firefox in Admin mode for security reasons each time I use the browser. I have tried reinstalling mozilla, disabling all plugins/extensions, reinstalling adobe flash several times.
I DO NOT have this problem when using Google Chrome.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Kind Regards,
Skanza

Hi skanza,
Did you try to reset firefox as explained in the following howto [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems here] ?

I have to re-install adobe flash for firefox every time i start my computer even if firefox shows that my adobe flash is working it does not.I also get notices from the websites i visit (get flash e.t.c.)

i have the latest firefox 10.02 in win7 and even if firefox shows is installed my adobe flash is not working so i have to run the flash installer every time i start my pc.After this everything works fine until the next start when i have to run the flashinstaller again

There are two versions of the Flash Player plugin. One is ActiveX and only works in IE. It sounds like you have that one installed. The other one works in all other browsers.
What seems to be happening is that you have security software that's blocking one of those versions of Flash/restoring your computer state and so it gets uninstalled when you start your computer. The other possibility is that there are permission issues. Unfortunately, this isn't something that Firefox can control; it's a problem with the Flash installation (Firefox is dumb and just looks in the registry for a list of installed plugins to load).
Make sure that you're an admin on your computer when you try to install Flash and that you check your security settings. If that doesn't work, try posting to the [http://forums.adobe.com/community/flashplayer Adobe community forums] to see if other people have had similar issues and know how to address them.

Notification Plug-in only working in IE (not Firefox or Chrome)

Just in case anyone else encountered this ...
I downloaded and installed the Dynamic Action Plug-in, Notification,
from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/application-express/apex-plug-ins-182042.html.
I imported into Shared Objects plug-ins for an application, created a dynamic action using this plug-in,
and it works great. In IE only (IE 8). When I run the application from Chrome or Firefox (3.6.13),
the notification does not display.
When I run the demo notification application in firefox or chrome, the notification works - http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=654321:401:0
I can not find any information specifically on browsers.
I use APEX 4.0.1.00.03 in Oracle 11.1.0.7 and develop on Windows 2003 server.
I do use javascript (calling htmldb_Get) to get a value from the database to display in the Notification,
so I suspect the problem may be there.
Any ideas why only IE works would be appreciated. Is there any place in APEX I needed to specify browsers?
Thanks,
Wayne

I stripped out all the local database access and hardecode a value for this problem. When you click the button "Check Employee's Classification", it calls a javascript function in the HTML Header called checkClass. That changes the item displayed in the notification and fires the dynamic action, Employee Class. Works great in IE, but that's it. I suspect it's the javascript that firefox or Chrome doesn't recognize.
function checkClass(lnum)
//alert(lnum);
// force a "change" for dynamic action to fire - set to empty, then change
$x('P1_CLASS_DESC').style.visibility = 'visible';
$x('P1_CLASS_DESC').focus();
$x('P1_CLASS_DESC').value = "";
$x('P1_CLASS_DESC').blur();
$x('P1_CLASS_DESC').style.visibility = 'hidden';
// below won't work on apex.oracle.com - comment out
// var get = new htmldb_Get(null,&APP_ID.,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=checkClass',0);
// get.add('P1_LNBR',lnum);
// gReturn = get.get();
//alert(gReturn);
$x('P1_CLASS_DESC').style.visibility = 'visible';
$x('P1_CLASS_DESC').focus();
// origin - not for apex.oracle.com $x('P1_CLASS_DESC').value = gReturn;
$x('P1_CLASS_DESC').value = "Test for why this only works in IE";
$x('P1_CLASS_DESC').blur();
$x('P1_CLASS_DESC').style.visibility = 'hidden';
}

ActiveSync only works for Contacts, not for Calendars and Email

So it seems that the ActiveSync is only working partially for me... When syncing with our company's OWA, my Contacts sync fine (though some create duplicates). However, the Calendar doesn’t sync at all, and the Email only syncs the folder structure, but none of the emails in them. When I attempt to sync the individual folders it gives me the same error message - “connection to the server failed”. This is a bit puzzling, as it is able to connect to the server just fine to get the contacts and the email folders.
I have already talked to the resident geniuses at the apple store and the exchange admin people - all are clueless... And did I mention, we don't have IT dept. to fix this... Please let me know if anyone is experiencing a similar problem or can suggest a way to fix it...
Many thanks.

I am also having this problem. I was on 2.0.1 with the original iphone and had activesync working just fine. Contacts, calendars and email were all working.
On Friday I made the critical mistake of deciding to upgrade to 2.0.2. My phone was a brick for a little more than a day. I finally seemed to figure out the magical incantations required to get it restored and syncing with itunes (it was in a loop of only wanting to restore my phone).
Since getting it back into a relatively normal mode of operating on 2.0.2 I have not been able to get push email via ActiveSync working (it was working fine, no changes on the Exchange side of things). The only thing that changed was my upgrading to 2.0.2.
Since then I am back to the pre-2.0 email capabilities (I can create a seperate account on the phone and make imap work, but I don't get push with that).
I sure hope Apple is reading this and taking steps to correct it. I have no idea how to restore my phone to the way it was before I made the mistake of upgrading to 2.0.2 I should just have waited for 2.1

Viber only working with wifi, not with 3g

Hi,
Can anyone explain why viber works on my iphone nomatter if im in a wifi hotspot or in the middle of no where, yet my wife has to be in a wifi hotspot for it to work on her iphone? we both have 3gs iphones, both running os4.3.
Could it be as simple as a setting?
Regards
Paul

Hi, i have an ipnone 4 and im with Optus 3G. Viber is only working for me (send texts and make calls) ONLY when im on wi-fi. If im not connected to a wifi connection it will not send any texts or make a call. If i try send a text it turns into a red dot with an exclamation mark near my comment and then it comes up with a message saying "An internet connection is required to set up Viber. Check your connection and try again. The request timed out."
Please can you reply to my email [email protected] with any help.

Help Embeded flash only works locally.

Please could someone help me. I am new to flash and have created my first flash video, a simple set of fading photos for my website front page.
I am using Flash, Dreamweaver and Fireworks all CS3,
The webpage can be found at http://www.wildennerdale.co.uk/index2.html
The flash video can be found at http://www.wildennerdale.co.uk/flash/homepage%20image%20show.swf
The flash video is embeded in the webpage and works fine in preview mode in Dreamweaver but does not appear at all in the uploaded webpage.
The flash video works fine through the link on the webpage.
I have uploaded the AC_RunActiveContent.js script to a scripts folder and to the folder where the webpage is and also the folder containing the flash video file.
Please could anyone suggest what I am doing wrong or need t do extra.
Many thanks
Gareth

A couple of things...
1) case matters - "scripts" and "Scripts" will be different, so change either the folder name or the page code to agree with each other. And you don't want to have the "../" leading it based on where I found the file.
2) Don't use spaces in the names of any files you use in the web.

16:9 Widescreen only works on computer not in DVD player

OK this is weird, I created a DVD using one of the new widescreen themes. It works fine on the computer and shows in a widescreen format, but when I stick it in a DVD player it shows as 4:3 and I've tried it in several players that all work with other widescreen DVDs.
Any thoughts?

Hi Saundhaus!
Several thoughts. It's a known, and reported, bug in some of iDVD's theme sub-menus. The following, (which takes longer to write than actually do, so don't panic!) refers to PAL, but substitute NTSC where it says PAL and you can't go wrong!
HOW TO MAINTAIN 16:9 ASPECT FROM IMPORT TO BURN
This is the way I do it. There is no compulsion on you to do it my way, but this works (for me). I started this method before iMovie and iDVD were upgraded to 6.0.3, and because not all elements of the various iDVD themes (particularly the pre-iDVD 6 ones) are consistent in keeping to 16:9 throughout the process.
The widescreen preview works just fine when you check your finished project within iDVD. The problem only happens when you either burn a project or save it to an image.
A bug in iDVD 6, particularly when working with PAL, and which has been reported to Apple, is that the sub-menus in many of the themes (the chapter settings) default to 4:3 aspect, NTSC and mpeg 1, instead of the desired 16:9 in mpeg 2 in PAL. This may be partly a leftover from iDVD 5 or even a newer ‘feature’ of iDVD 6. Either way, it is annoying when it happens, and we must hope Apple cure it in iDVD 7. In the meantime here is my failsafe workaround, which sounds a lot more complicated when reading about it, that it is in practise.
Living in the UK, I use PAL (25 fps). Wherever you see a reference to PAL (25 fps) in the following you may substitute NTSC (30 fps) in the various settings mentioned (if you don’t live in Europe), the basic idea is the same. I still use this method, and take these steps, regardless of whether it is always necessary. Worst case scenario: it would have worked anyway. Best case scenario: it works perfectly where it otherwise wouldn’t!
The object of the exercise is therefore to ‘fix’ all constituent parts of the project (video, titles, theme, effects, even audio!) in the desired 16:9 aspect to avoid producing a DVD where the movie is in 16:9 and the menu is in 4:3 or where other irritating surprises lurk in your project, which you only discover after burning a coaster!
First go to http://www.mydvdedit.com/index.php?lang=english and download myDVDedit. This is shareware although the download is free. Send the guy a few dollars/euros, he deserves it. While you are there, read all about it. Now install it in your Applications Folder. You will need it later.
You have finished your iMovie project with music, transitions and so on, and saved it to you Movies Folder. Before you started the project you naturally set it to DV Widescreen.
Open iDVD. Give the project a name, and save it as Widescreen if it didn’t default to the same aspect as your iMovie project. Now import the iMovie project into iDVD, choose a theme (any theme you like, even if it prefers to stay at 4:3) and save the project. Do what you would normally do to the theme and its drop zones. Save the project.
Now save as Disk Image on your desktop. Leave it there for the moment when it has finished/appeared.
Open your Movies Folder. Create a new folder. Name it PROJECTNAME – TS FILES (where ‘projectname’ is the name of your project!). Close the folder. You can of course call it anything you like, but this aids identification.
Now double-click the disk image on your desktop. It contains two folders: AUDIO_TS (which is empty, but please pretend that it isn’t) and VIDEO_TS. Drag and drop these to the folder you created in your Movies Folder. (This takes a moment).
Click on the AUDIO_TS folder and go to Get Info in the file menu. Right down the bottom is where you have to change the permissions. Under ‘Ownership & Permissions’ change this from Read Only to Read & Write. Click the small triangle next to Details, scroll down and click on ‘Apply to enclosed items’. You will be asked for your root password. Close the get info window, and now click on the VIDEO_TS folder and do the same. Close the Projectname-TS Files folder. You have now allowed yourself to change the properties of the contents of those folders, which leads us to the next all-important step.
Open myDVDedit. Go to File and open the projectname TS Files folder. By all means stare at it shock and awe, but don’t bother finding out what it can do, except for the following:
Top left you fill see a list of files. Lower centre you have a large window. On the vertical menu to the left of that, click IFO.
In the window at the top left, ignore ‘First Play’ (if there was anything to correct in that, myDVDedit will have done so and told you).
Click on VMG Menu en (English). Now the whole thing springs to life.
Set Coding Mode to MPEG-2 (if it isn’t already)
Set Standard to PAL (or NTSC if that is what you want)
Set Aspect to 16:9 (not any of the other options)
Now save the file.
Click on VTS Menu 1 en (English) and repeat as above.
Click on VTS Menu 2 and repeat as above.
You have now permanently ‘fixed’ the entire contents of the TS folder (the disk image) in 16:9 aspect. Close myDVDedit – you won’t need it again until the next project!
If you have Toast 7 Titanium, open it. ‘Select DVD-Video from VIDEO_TS’. Choose Select from the main Toast window and select your projectname-TS Files folder. You are now ready to burn! You can set the burn speed (2x recommended) before the burn commences. Allow Toast to verify the burn before you eject the DVD-R disk.
If you don’t have Toast 7, then I assume you can burn the projectname-TS Files folder (disk image) via Disk Utility. I say ‘assume’ only because I have never tried it that way.
Either way, you now have a DVD which will play as 16:9 widescreen on any TV set, even the old ones where you can’t ask it to letter-box.

IPhone 3GS: Push e-mail now only works on 3GS, not WiFi

Greetings,
Well, my iPhone 3GS (iOS 5.1.1, which it's been running for a long time) suddenly stopped receiving pushed e-mail from my Yahoo e-mail account (the only one of my accounts that offers push) over WiFi at home. Now Push only works when I'm on 3G. It used to work on both. Any ideas?
Thanks,
DM

Have you
- restarted the phone?
- made a hard reset? Simultaneously press the sleep/wake and the home buttons for 10-15 seconds until the device reboots (ignore the shutdown screen).
- force quit the app? When in the app, press on the sleep/wake button until the shutdown screen appears, then press the home button until the app quits.

Lightning cable only works thru charger not computer

My problem is that the cable only works thrugh the wall charger
I cannot connect via computer or stereo. This only happened last week
the iphone is only a month old and the cable has been(in my eyes)well looked after
I'm guessing I need a new cable. the conectors look in good condition and I can't see any "gunk" in the phone socket
Any further insights greatly appreciated

Are you getting a message on your device saying that the cable isn't certified? I have an iFrogz cable for my iPhone 6+ that suddenly last week stopped working. It is Apple-Certified at least when I purchased it. I have contacted iFrogz asking them what changed but I am waiting to hear from them. So it might be a similar situation that I am experiencing. My original cable works fine.

After upgrading to Mavericks App store only works for me when I switch over other users

After upgrading to Mavericks, the only options that work for me on App Store are Updates and Purchases, anything else only works if I switch my user either to guest or root? Any idea? Thx in advance.

Read this whole message before doing anything.
Back up all data.
Quit the App Store application if it’s running. Wait at least 10 seconds before continuing.
Step 1
Hold down the option key and select
Go ▹ Library
from the Finder menu bar. Delete the following items from the Library folder (some may not exist):
Caches/com.apple.appstore
Caches/com.apple.storeagent
Caches/storeagent
Cookies/com.apple.appstore.cookies
Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.appstore.plist
Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.storeagent.plist
Preferences/com.apple.storeagent.plist
Leave the Library folder open. Try the App Store again. If it works now, stop here. Close the Library folder.
Step 2
If you still have problems, quit again and wait 10 seconds. Go back to the Finder and move the following items from the open Library folder to the Desktop:
Cookies/com.apple.appstore.plist
Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
Test. If the App Store now works, delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, quit again. Put back the files you moved, overwriting the newer ones that may have been created in their place, and post your results.

Flash file works sometimes, but not others

Here is the page with what I am trying to do. It is volunteer
work for a non-profit, and I am not an uber flash programmer, but I
have come this far, and would appreciate any helps diagnosing the
possible causes for this. Please view this link to see what I am
talking about. Clicking on the thumbnails opens a separate window
with a photo gallery.
http://www.coafkids.org/dev/photovideo/
On my computer, this works fine, both on the authoring end
and the server end. On some others, reportedly, they can view some
of the gallery slideshows, but not others. The reports have been
random, so there is no consistency with which shows work and which
do not.
The flash file is the same exact file for each of the
galleries. Each gallery has its own folder on the server. In this
folder, there is a flash file(same exact file in all galleries) an
XML file specific to that gallery, and an images folder. The XML
file gives the flash file the location and respective caption for
each image that is located in the images folder. With all the flash
files named exactly the same in each folder, with exactly the same
code, how does it not work on only some machines??
Any light, anything at this point would be extremely
helpful..
Thank you in advance,
Armo

The people that report problems are only reporting them for
one, two, or sometimes just three out of the 9 galleries.
Therefore, since it is exactly the same flash file used in all 9,
why would some choose not to work. And even worse, why are the ones
that do not work varied across each person?
Thank you for your response.... hope we can all solve this
mystery together...
