Flash player plays wrong movie after opening with Rosetta

Hi,
I just had the most peculiar experience. Tried to open a [flashmovie].flv (which in hindsight could be done with Quicktime), Flash START popped up, followed by a pop-up requiring a Rosetta installation. This is the first time I came across Rosetta. Installed it, tried to open the flv again, this started the flashplayer alright but it started a completely different movie.
Opened the same file in Quicktime and that works fine.
Can anyone recommend what to do? Do I have to deinstall rosetta and the flashplayer to prevent this kind of behaviour?

Rosetta could come in handy for other apps you have hanging around, so I suggest you leave it where it is.
To make movies open in QuickTime, select one and press Command-I to open the Information window. In the Open With pane, select QuickTime Player from the pop-up menu. Then click on the Change All button below, and click on the Continue button in the "Are you sure" dialogue box that appears.
You can then throw away the Flash player, unless you prefer it and the developer comes up with a Cocoa/Intel version.

Is there a way to have one flash player play all moives on a web page ?

Hi,
Is there a way to have one flash player play all movies on a web page ?   For example, you have a list of FLV movies on a page and you click on any them and it will play on the same player on the web page. Or does each movie needs it's own ?
Thanks in advance..
Peter

Yes, for the design I made, the movies are loaded from the server. Here is the code for the design. It is done using AS2, and the stage includes two buttons (s1, s2) for playing the individual videos, one button to play them both (playall), one after the other, and the video object (video1_video) that was added via small menu you find at the top of the library panel's frame.
I cannot say this would work directly for your implementation, but it gives you some things you can look into so that you can figure out how.
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
// ignore whatever code is above this... the forum added it, not me
stop();
ncount = -1;
var connection_nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
connection_nc.connect(null);
var stream_ns:NetStream = new NetStream(connection_nc);
stream_ns.setBufferTime(3);
stream_ns.onStatus = function(infoObject:Object) {
        for (var prop in infoObject) {
               if(infoObject[prop] == "NetStream.Play.Stop" && ncount == 0){
                   video1_video.attachVideo(stream_ns);
                   stream_ns.play("20051210-w50s.flv");
                   ncount += 1;
playall.onRelease = function(){
      ncount = 0;
      video1_video.attachVideo(stream_ns);
      stream_ns.play("barsandtone.flv");
s1.onRelease = function(){
      video1_video.attachVideo(stream_ns);
      stream_ns.play("barsandtone.flv");
s2.onRelease = function(){
      ncount = -1;
      video1_video.attachVideo(stream_ns);
      stream_ns.play("20051210-w50s.flv");
I don't deal with video very often, so I have not created an AS3 version of this.

Are you using any MS Office third party Add-ins? Test: Remove third party Add-ins other than PDFMaker. Test to see if the MS Office apps run afterward.
Did you attempt to repair MS Office? Test: Go to Add/Remove Control Panel run Repair.
Finally, have you tried testing to see if it's PDFMaker? Test: Use the Add/Remove Control Panel to modify the Acrobat installation to remove PDFMaker. See if MS Office applications launch and behave correctly?

After the latest version of Adobe flash player was installed, movies and tv shows will not play, and

After the latest version of Adobe Flash Player was installed, movies and tv shows will not run, and most of the news videos will not play. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it but that does not help.

I have windows (crap) seven and internet explorer. When I try to access movies or tv shows, I'm always asked to install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. When I check the programs list, it indicates that Adobe Flash Player Active X is installed. I have uninstalled adobe and reinstalled it several times. Do you suppose this is a virus, and I need to redo the hard drive completely?

You need to determine from the vendor if the player is compatible w/Maverick. Have you done this yet? If not, why not?

Hey! My flash player keeps crashing whenever I open any kind of website with any flash contend. Videos won't load, moving advertisements, all that stuff. Its also not just Firefox, videos don't work in IE or Chrome. I'm completely updated on all the plugins as well. Thanks for any help you may have!

IE uses a different version of Flash (ActiveX version) than Firefox and Chrome use (the Plugin version). You might want to try the Adobe Flash forums for help with those Flash problems. <br />

Flash Player Does Not Work After Installing on Windows XP

I had been playing a shockwave game for several days and had completed 19 of 35 levels. When I went to play it again, I received a message that I need to update to a newer flash player. I downloaded it successfully, but it does not work. There is no file size and I uninstalled and reinstalled it several times. I also changed the internet settings as suggested. I am also the administrator of and only user of this computer. I can also play the same game on another computer that has windows 7 and have no problems. I have completed 33 of 35 levels with no problems. The computer with XP has a 32 system.
Any help would be appreciated.

I had been playing a shockwave game for about a week . When I went to play it again, it stated that I need to upgrade to a newer adobe flash player. I have windows xp with a 32 system and explorer 8 browser. After installing the flash player, it has no file siz for the player.. After I installed it, the page says it had been installed. The game still says I need to upgrade the flash player. I uninstalled it, reinstalled it, changed my internet settings as suggested, and it still does not work. I can play the same game on my other computer with windows 7 with no problems. It has a file size listed for the flash player. The computer that I am using now has windows 7 and a file size for the adobe flash player.
Any help with this matter will be greatly appreciated.

Adobe Flash Player 11 NOT working after several attempts to download, uninstall, & reinstall

I have problems with Adobe Flash Player 11 NOT working after several attempts to download, then uninstall, & re-install.
I uninstalled the previous versions of Adobe Flash Player from my computer PRIOR to attempting to install the new 11 version, so now I'm unable to view videos, etc.,
I'm using Windows Vista 32 bit, Internet Explorer 9.0 (which I closed when I got error messages during Adobe Flash Player 11 Installation. I've disabled my AVG -Virus also during the installation of Flash Player 11.
FYI, I'm not computer savvy so the YouTube video by Adobe Tech was too complicated to follow AND I'm unable to view (DUH!) it since I have no Flash Player program installed (doesn't make sense!) .
Thanks for keeping it simple (KISS for me).

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling some 30 times now ..rebooting, you name it.
I haven't been able to use flash since Adobe kindly shoved that latest update down my computer's throat.
Right after getting the 'successful' installation message I restart IE9 ..go to my channel on youtube and immediately get the message:
The Adobe Flash Player is required for video playback.
Get the latest Flash Player
I tried Chrome and on two or three it worked but then even after closing out of them ..Chrome slowed down to a crawl and finally informed me that Flash had stopped working.
This has entirely wasted 3 nights of my time. It is 2:30 am and I should have had at least 2hours sleep already to rise at 6:30 but no, thanks this I'm still up and no doubt millions of other computer users are having just as much fun.. Everyone I know that allowed the updates to install ..is having the same problem ..Chrome/IE9/Firefox ...you can truly call it Adobe's Universal Cluster ...
I live with Adobe. At work we have 6 fully Adobied LR4/CS5 & 6/InDesign workstations. I'm a photographer using nothing but Adobe products and quite frankly I feel this is the worst treatment you have ever given your customers.
Please stop the CYA and just fix the damm thing! I realize you didn't write it Chris but surely you can get Adobe management to address this instead of just trying to get their users to try and debug it for the airheads that released it. Has anyone stopped to consider the financial damage being done due to videos not playing the ads that support the sites and no doubt stream revenue to Adobe? These guys have rolled the online experience back 5 years minimum and Adobe will probably pay the price for it. Re-issue a working version and go back to the drawing board!

Embed question - play one movie after another

I am trying to figure out how to play a short 10 second clip before each movie on my website. The clip may be a short ad or a promo and will depend upon the content of the main video. What is the code that enables you to play one move after another in a web page. I don't want to edit the two clips to become one cos over time the ads and promos will change. In Realplayer I remember using SMIL but how is it done in QT. I will eventually write code to write out the Embed tag but now i am just experimenting. Here is what my drupal site puts out



<object type="video/quicktime" width="483" height="381"

Embed the initial movie clip as normal, but give it an HREF property.
Set the source for the HREF to be the next movie, set autohref=true, and set target="myself". It's the same technique you use to build a poster movie but (a) instead of having the poster movie open QT Player, you have its target open in its own frame and (b) instead of waiting for a user to click the poster, you have the poster movie "click itself".
Code that I used a very long time ago to display a "Loading..." graphic as a movie loaded (waste of effort, actually, as the movie is fast start and loads very fast):
<embed
src="loading.mov"
height="208"
width="256"
autohref="true"
href="Worm.mov"
target="Myself">
</embed>
(of course this was before I learned about OBJECT and the need to use OBJECT to activate the ActiveX control in IE. Also, it's worth noting that the javascript hack isn't strictly necessary for IE users, but without it, IE users will get a security dialog before they get the movie.)

Macbook air adoble flash player doesn't work after installation

macbook air adobe flash player doesn't work after installation

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 7. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
You might have to log out or reboot before a Flash update takes effect.
Step 2
In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
Step 3
If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
Step 4
If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
If the warning persists, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 5
Open this folder as in Step 4:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
Step 6
Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
Step 7
If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
Then click the button marked
Manage Website Settings...
if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
Step 8
Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.

Why the flash player don't work after installing the video downloader add-on?

I've installed and uninstall the Firefox mobile app several times to try and fix this issue. Every time I add the video downloader add-on the flash player won't let me tap to play videos anymore. I've tried to completely enable the flash but still didn't work. I've used this add on for a few months and it worked fine up until the last Firefox update. Without the add-on the flash player works fine but after I've added the video downloader add-on I would have to uninstall and reinstall the mobile spot to get the flash to work again. I really love to use this add-on that's the advantage that Firefox mobile app has over other web browser. Please tell me how I can fix this issue. THANKS

Hello FRYDAE
Welcome to SuMo help Forum,
Thankyou for reaching us here
About your problem , have you tried to clear your privacy/browsing data? And see if flash works?
And you can try to disable the add-on, if you don't want to use it . and enable it again if you want to download a video .
Cheers!

Flash player 11.5 does not open background pictures of my website

Flash player 11.5 does not open background pictures of my website scilang.com as well as many others'. 11.4 is ok. However, 11.5 has really messed it up.
I tried it with IE9, Chrome, Firefox. No. No with Flash Player 11.5. Why are such things happening all the time?

I can't comment publicly on dates for future releases, sorry.
For users that have selected "Allow Adobe to Install Updates" during installation, they will automatically get the update as soon as it becomes available. There is some lag in uptake in general (we're really only about halfway into the adoption curve for Flash Player 11.5), so the problem won't be resolved overnight. If you have access to the source, you may want to update your content temporarily to work around the issue. If it's just a generic slideshow, you might want to consider replacing it with an AS3-based alternative. Lightroom distributes a nice flash-based slideshow, for instance.
There are a couple actionscript-based workarounds you can implement in your content until the next Flash Player 11.5 maintenance release has been deployed to the general release audience.
There's one workaround here:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4841531#4841531#4841531
The root of the issue is that the onEnterFrame event isn't getting emitted by MovieClips that embed JPEGs in ActionScript 2 content. This was an unfortunate side-effect of an unrelated graphics optimization. We have tests that check that onEnterFrame is emitted, and that JPEGs are rendered, but not one where we confirm that a SWF embedding a JPEG emits an onEnterFrame event. Because the change was isolated to AS2, we didn't see it in our manual URL testing either, as that testing tends to focus on the most popular sites on the web, which usually host newer AS3-based content. We've added tests to cover this case to prevent it from breaking again in the future.
Anyway, apologies again for the inconvenience. Hopefully this information will help you workaround the problem until the next update goes out.

Installation of Flash Player 11.9 under OSX fails with case-sensitive filesystem!?

The installation of flash player 11.9 aborts with an unspecified error. I running OSX 10.9 with an case-sensitive filesystem. Can anyone confirm there are problems with the installer on case-sensitive filesystems?

The problem isn't the filesystem per se. It's bad software quality if pathnames defined wrong or multiple times with different notation. Often there is only one or two letters with the wrong upper or lower case. I guess in the current Flash installer this is the case. With the previous versions I had no problems.

My Mini isn't case sensitive, so I can't really say but I had two iMacs when I worked at Intuit that were case sensitive and they had all kinds of software installation issues. One of the Mac developers at Mountain View told me that Case Sesnitive shouldn't be chosen as a format except when a system is isolated and used as a testing server. For a workstation or home computer, it's a terrible choice for a setup.
