Flash Pro 8 and CS3 Compiled SWF Files

I am trying to create a site that is 100% flash and I am
having difficulty. I want to load games into my games page but I
don't know what version of Flash was used to create the games. How
can I find out what version and then find out if they are
compatible?

swf files should work no problems. they are all backward
compatible. If you publish your movie for Flash 8 AS2.0 all youe
swf files should work just fine.
But if it's FLA files that you mean, then when you open them
in Flash it should give you a warning that it will change some
actionscript entries that are depricated.
Just have a look through your Publish Settings.

    Hi..
    Quit Safari.
    Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Advanced tab.

    SWF files are flash files, which are not supported on the iPad : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/
    If you want to play the file then the iSwifter or Skyfire browser apps might work (they don't work on all flash sites) but you won't be able to download it

  • Using Flash Pro and Flash Builder together | Learn Flash Professional CS5 & CS5.5 | Adobe TV

    Adobe Flash Professional CS5 and Adobe Flash Builder 4 enable time-saving workflows. Learn how to develop content in Flash while editing associated ActionScript code in Flash Builder 4, switching easily between the two applications to edit and test.
    http://adobe.ly/w50IJm

    This doesn't seem to work the same way in CS5.5 / CS6
    In the video the class files are associated with the FLA, when you switch back to Flash Pro...
    So far, when I follow these steps the classes are not associated with the FLA, the class field for the stage in Flash remains blank.
    Also, clicking the edit icon in the properties of a MovieClip and allowing FB to create the file, does not associate the as file with the MovieClip.
    Returning to Flash Pro and clicking the Edit button attempt to create a new file once again, but since the file already exists in FB it just remains on the New ActionScript Class dialog, with the Finish Button grayed out (because a file with the same name already exists in FB).
    The resulting AS files for a given are created in a sub folder under:
    Documents/Adobe Flash Builder 4.6/[Project]/src-[Project]/*.as
    Yet the FLA is located in Documents:
    Documents/[Project].fla
    Should the as files exists with the fla, is a folder reference supposed to be set, or did I miss a step somewhere?
    Is a source path supposed to be added to Flash Pro for:
    Documents/Adobe Flash Builder 4.6/[Project]
    I am currently on a Mac, but noticed the same behavior in Windows at work yesterday.
    Thanks,

  • I want to save and load the swf-file to a local disk of any user. Possible?

    Hi, It's good to see you.
    I am a developer in Web Flash Game.( I use AS3.0 )
    I want to save and load the swf-file to a local disk of any user,
    Because I want to decrease the time for loading a flash movie from site.
    Is it possible?
    If it is possible, I hope the swf-file has only one loading from site and
    it will be loaded from a local disk of any user after that.
    (I know a concept of Internet temporary file.
    I want to know the other techniques of only using AS3.0.)

    Hi,
    I have similar problem. We are producing a 70 meg browser based game and would like the user to be able to cache the game to avoid reloading the game the next time. Can this be done if the user authorise the save? If, so how? We don't care where the game is cached .
    Can we prompt the user to download the file by providing a link from within the SWF application?

  • I had a windows laptop, and I save files like photos, documents, videos and other things on an external hard drive, and now I want to move those files to the Mac book Pro, and then move those files again to another external hard drive 1T. My question is:

    I had a windows laptop, and I save files like photos,documents, videos and other things on an external hard drive, and now I want tomove those files to the Mac book Pro, and then move those files again toanother external hard drive 1T. My question is: Is it possible? Doing this willnot affect the files that I had in windows? No information is lost? or how cani do it?

    Connect the external drive to your Mac and drag the files from it to your Mac's internal drive. Then dismount and disconnect the external drive, connect the 1TB external drive, and drag the files from the internal drive onto the external. Nothing will have been deleted from any of the drives up to this point; the files will only have been copied. Verify that the files are readable. There's no reason they shouldn't be; this is just a precaution.
    Now if you wish to delete the files from any of the drives, drag them to the Trash, and Empty the Trash while the drive from which they came is still connected. If you disconnect the drive before emptying the Trash, the files you were trying to remove from it won't be deleted. They'll remain in the Trash and continue to take up space on the drive.
    Note that if your external drives are in NTFS format, you won't be able to write anything to them or delete anything from them, though you will be able to read and copy the files they contain. The NTFS disk format is read-only to the Mac OS, unless you have a third-party NTFS driver installed. To make your drives cross-platform readable and writable, you must reformat them in the FAT32 or ExFAT format.

    Hello Experts ,
                          Could you please suggest if it is possible to Call and display Xcelsius SWF file
    from an SAP Transaction and if Yes how can this be achieved.
    Regards ,
    Jerin.

    Jerin,
    It is possible to embed a Xcelsius model into an SAP WebTemplate (Anil promised to write a blog about this very soon). After that you can include the WebTemplate in the GUI menu, Role menu or Portal.

  • Flash CS6 cant open play SWF files without importing and destroying them, how can I get around this?

    Flash CS6 can't open play SWF files without importing and destroying them, how can I get around this?
    I'm just trying to preview an swf file in flash like I have with all previous versions.

    What if my SWF loads external content from an online server?
    Not only does the current flash player prohibit such activity, it doesn't even pop open an error anymore saying there was an error connecting to an online source.
    Normally, I would simply drag the SWF into Flash and all connections would go through.  I could see traces, errors, and experience no issues.
    Now I can't even do that.  So what then?  You have crippled a fundamental use of the program, but THANK GOD we have that deco brush that nobody asked for.
    And for the record, the nature of my work benefits from not necessarily allowing the Flash Player to connect to online content.  The error it pops up?  That's simply another method of error checking that I require.  Updating the Flash Player options is not an option.
    Why would you even remove this key feature from Flash anyways?  It's been there for years ... has the ratio of people importing SWFs (a rather useless gesture in an increasing OOP world) really outweighed the people using Flash as a testing environment that much?

  • What happens when the Main Flash is 25 fps and an external SWF file is 12 fps?

    Hello everyone,
    I have a Main Flash which is set to 25 fps. This Flash is
    used to load an external swf file which was created using 12 fps. I
    would like to know what really happens when the Main Flash loads
    the external swf file? Does the Main file forces the external file
    to be run on 25 fps or the swf file is run with its own 12 fps?
    Any ways, if someone can take the time and explain this, I
    would be greatful.
    Thank you very much and have a great day.
    Khoramdin

    the external swf plays at 25fps - all loaded movies will take
    on the frame rate of the parent movie.

  • My Time Capsule will not work through Time Machine but need to back up because my hard drive is corrupt. I hard-wired it to my MacBook Pro and have been dragging files to capsule in finder window. Will I have problems since it's flashing yellow constantly

    My Time Capsule is constantly flashing yellow and it will not preform periodic back-ups. When I tell it to from the icon on the top task bar, it freezes MacBook...every time. I am now dragging files from internal HD to TC found in Finder after hardwiring it to laptop treating it as an external HD.  Can in trust it to store files and photos as my MacBook is telling me to back-up because my internal HD is corrupt and may need replacing? 
    Thanks in advance.

    A PC can have more issues connecting than a Mac.
    But it really should not matter.. so just try it in situ.. press and hold the reset.. once it starts up, it will return to default IP, 10.0.1.1 the PC should then be able to find it via the airport utility.
    If not drag it over to the Mac and plug in there by ethernet.. or since it is a laptop, really should not be that difficult to drag the Laptop and plug it into the TC.
    Important thing is to get access to the TC.
    The Mac if it is running lion, then you MUST download and install 5.6 airport utility to do anything useful.

  • Flash cs5 and cs3 crash on publish, export, copy frames etc.

    Well hi, welcome to my nightmare
    i've been working for a loooongg hugeeee time on an animation, it probably lasts over 20m, has tons of music, movieclips and videos. It's divided into 5 or 6 scenes don't remember exactly. The fla weighs about 550mb (im not using everything in the library anyway, i guess i could trim out a lot) and i CANNOT PUBLISH. im about to go absolutely nuts. If i publish, "Flash stopped responding", hi desktop! I'm running windows 7 x64 ultimate, have a quad-core q6600 4GB RAM DDR2 @667MHz, and a nvidia gtx260, which probably doesn't matter.
    Okay, when i started to create the animation everything went smooth, as the fla got heavier and the animation more complex, i started to notice problems like "not enough memory to complete operation" and random crashes. I believe most of it has to do with flash having a poor memory management.
    Anyway, the thing is that i cannot publish at all. I tried breaking the animation down to 4 files, so as to make lighter files and maybe get it to publish separately, but in the 4th scene, which has an embedded movie in it, i find it impossible to copy the frames to paste them into a new file. I copy the frames, and flash cs3 just stays there, stuck and not going anywhere, i have to kill the process in order to get out, and flash cs5 doesn't copy the frames at all, it loads for some time and then if i right click, the paste frames option is in grey, like unavailable.
    So i'm stuck, i have all there and can't do anything with it!!!. I tried rendering the test scene for each scene but the same 4th scene has a problem! life hates me! the tweens inside the movie clips won't play on the swf... so i cant render test scenes to get separate swfs.
    If anyone has any idea, they'd be my hero!!! please i really need to publish this, it was a whole lot of work and im surely not just leaving the fla in my hard drive to fall into oblivion, not a chance
    pleeeeaseee help!!! thank you so much in advance!!!!!!

  • How can I tell if and how a SWF  file is streaming?

    My department is new to Flash, but we've now been creating
    basic Flash Videos for websites for a few months. We've always
    encoded our videos to FLVs (Flash 8), and then used the Video
    Import Wizard in Flash 8 to import those FLVs into our FLA
    document. We now need to be able to error-check all of our files
    (each video comprised of four files: an HTML file, an FLV file, and
    two SWF files including the player skin) to make sure that
    progressive videos are indeed progressive and streaming videos are
    streaming.
    My process thus far:
    In Flash 8, I brought up the SWF file and opened the Output
    window; from the Debug menu I then selected variables. I was able
    to find the variable "isRTMP:false", which according to the
    documentation seems to mean that the video is progressive, not
    streaming. However, when I authored this FLA file, I know I chose
    the streaming option (FVSS not FCS) in the Video Import Wizard. Am
    I looking in the wrong place? Am I confused about the meaning of
    this variable?
    Bottom line, how do I determine after authoring whether an
    SWF is streaming or progressive, and moreover whether it's been
    authored to use FVSS or FCS?

    I'm sorry, perhaps I was a little unclear. The files are all
    still stored herelocally, since they have not yet been deployed.
    I'm looking for some property of the SWF file (maybe visible
    through Component Inspector?) that will tell me how it has been
    authored. Is there any place in the SWF file itself that contains
    this information (since the files are not yet deployed)?

  • Flash Pro not open or create files.

    Hi, I have Flash CS5.5, but this problem happens to all the Flashes I use, the CS4, CS5, CS5.5... I dont Have the Flash CS6/CC (My PC don't runs the trial), but the problem not apply in CC and CS6 versions...
    The problem specifically is this:
    I open the Flash opens normally, and I see the "Welcome" screen...
    But if I click-on any document, or attempt to create a new file ...
    Just is static and I can not do anything else...
    In the best of cases, the program stops working and ask me to close it. (It's a "Crash").
    Sorry for the bad english... Not is my origin lenguage.
    ¡HELP PLEASE! I cant live without my Flash CS5.5... Is my work tool and my entertainment tool.
    Spanish/Español: "Flash Pro no abre ni crea ningún archivo".
    Yo uso Flash CS5.5, pero ésto me pasa en cualquiera que sea Flash CS5.5, CS4, etc... En el CC o CS6 no, pero no los uso porque mi PC no los corre. Verán, yo corro Flash como siempre e inicia normalmente, con la pantalla de bienvenida. La cosa se pone fea cuando cliqueo en un archivo o a crear un nuevo archivo. La pantalla del programa simplemente se tilda y no hace absolutamente nada o en el mejor de las situaciones me avisa que el programa deja de funcionar y me pregunta si quiero forzar el cierre.
    My PC:
    •Windows 7 Ultimate (With Windows 8.1 too happens this).
    •Intel Core i7 - 8 CPU's
    •6Gb RAM
    •750 HDD
    •AMD Radeon HD 6650M.

    Have you tried to uninstall it and reinstall it? I imagine you have but I figured I'd ask. Do other Adobe products behave the same way or just Flash? Maybe roll back the driver to an earlier version? It also might be a graphics card incompatibility.  It's probably not the answer you want to hear but you might try using an Nvidia card instead?

  • Flash Lite - Automatic playback of SWF-files within MMS

    Dear flash communty,
    I've the problem that SWF-files doesn't play automatically when  I open the MMS I received. I tried to solve the problem with SMIL files, but it  seams that the Flash Lite player doesn't support these scripts. Does anyone of  you know anything else to solve the problem? Is there another way to implement  this feature?
    Greetings,
    Noctem

    We have been working with one of our customers on delivering
    an on line sales tool using the Adobe Connect environment. They for
    the usual legal reasons wished to use a sales aid they had already
    created. This was a flash based CD-rom with various flash movies
    initiated by rollovers and buttons.
    But there was two problems:
    1. The index would not work i.e. the menu page appeared but
    the subsequent movies and animations could not be found
    2. The click throughs and rollovers would not synchronizes,
    i.e. if the presenter moved forward through the presentation the
    participants did not.
    Both of these obviously make it useless.
    After over three weeks of R&D we (David Kwaw , Steve
    Grovenor and J ) have developed a bespoke piece of programing,
    based on Sync SWF
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobatconnect/articles/basic_syncswf_pt1.html
    That solves this issue, we have since refined the coding so
    that ONLY the presenter has control of the flash presentation,
    making it more like Adobe Presenter just ALOT more flexible and
    better looking.
