Flash problem when viewing in windows

When I view my flash work on a web site in windows (works
fine in mac) when you mouseover the flash area it comes up with a
boundary box with a comment tag saying "Click to activate and use
this control" - you then have to click in the flash area before you
can start using any of the flash features, such as buttons and so
on.
I'm not sure why this is happening, but it seems to have
something to do with flash 9, windows, and my publishing settings
(im guessing). I know its not a browser issue or setting as i've
viewed many other sites with flash where they don't have this
happening..
All I'm doing is creating my flash, exporting it and then
importing it in dreamweaver.. Simple and straight forward
Can someone please explain to me how to fix it.
Thank you.

I am having the same problem as you. The problem is the
publisher settings fro Flash. The very last section you will see
"Local playback security" with a dropdown list of
* Access local files only
* Access Network only.
I hate these options and I wish there was a work around. I
noticed that my flvplayer buttons will not show up using the
network settings on the web but I can see the video. On the
otherhand, the video will not play embeded in a html file.
The local setting plays perfect on my computer, I can see the
video and flvplayer components, however the video will not play on
the internet.
I just do not know what to do.
In summary, the network settings will play on the network but
will not show the buttons and the local will not play on the web
but plays perfectly on the my computer.
Go figure

    Did you download and install the Windows Support software? First step in Bootcamp Assistant is to download the support software. Then did you install the support software from within Windows?

  • How can I remove the thin black border of Flash movie when viewed in a browser?

    There is a thin border at the top and left margins of my Flash movie when the .html is viewed in a browser. How can it be removed?
    Here's the movie.
    One solution suggests replacing some code, but the code they suggest replacing doesn't even exist in my html file.
    I have found questions similar to mine being asked all over different forums, but their solutions either don't work, or like the above, don't really apply. For such a common problem, finding the solution is getting a little frustrating.
    I'm using Flash CS3 on a Windows PC rrunning XP professional.

    Okay, I found the answer. It turns out that when I made the buttons in Flash (so the movie would have clickable links), the default stroke color was set to black. Change it to white and the outline is gone.
    As for appearing only on the top and left of the movie - for some reason the bottom and right is being cropped a bit when it's placed in to the html page. But that's a topic for a different discussion.

  • Sapscript output(Spool) to PDF problem when viewed

    We have a number of documents which are output in Russian using the Cyrillic courier font within our Uincode SAP system. They look fine on the spool when viewed, print okay, and all look fine when converted to a PDF file (using RSTXPDFT4) and viewed via Adobe PDF viewer (vers 9.1.20), except one form, the invoice, which will not display properly in Adobe, showing square blocks with crosses through them when viewed. The strange thing is that when this same PDF is viewed via Sumatra (Open source PDF viewer) it looks perfect, but will not display via the Adobe PDF viewer, even though all the other delivery/dispatch docuemnts (all Sapscript) print and view fine via the Adobe PDF viewer.
    I guess I could suggest that we just use Sumatra from now on, but that is not really the answer when you have a multinational company which has Adobe already installed on all hardware as default.
    Has anyone come across this problem before. I was wondering if there could be anything in Sapscript that might have caused this as this is a copy of SAP standard Russian Invoice Sapscript (J_3RVINVOICE)?
    I'm going to check OSS to see if there's a fault with the PDF convertion program (RSTXPDFT4) but I would like to hear from anyone that may have encountered the same problem.

  • Problems when viewing page in IE but not in Firefox - Help

    Please help! I'm new to using tables in Dreamweaver. I built my page in Photoshop, sliced it and then opened it in Dreamweaver.

    Please help! I'm new to using tables in Dreamweaver. I built my page in Photoshop, sliced it and then opened it in Dreamweaver.
    Bad news - that action alone accounts for some significant percentage of the posts here on the forum.  The truth of the matter is this - the code that any graphics application writes is not usable for anything other than rapid prototyping.  This means it's not suitable for any production work.  Read this to discover one of the several reasons why that is the case -
    http://www.apptools.com/rants/spans.php
    Your gaps are a definitive proof of the brittleness of such table layouts.
    A much better approach would be to use a graphics application for what it does best - make graphics.  Build the page in DW.  Read this to see a suggested method - http://www.apptools.com/examples/pagelayout101.php

  • Menu positioning problem when viewing in Internet explorer on a pc

    Hi guys,
    I have created a website for a football team and I am having problems with the menu. It looks fine in all browsers apart from Internet Explorer. The menu positioning is meant to be on the left hand side but shows far right on the screen when viewed in Internet Explorer. Does anyone know how I can resolve this issue?

    Hummm....its difficult to tell. Youre using so many redundant css styles ie not needed.
    Youre 'leftPan' <div> container is 140px in width but your ul (unordered list inside it is 244px wide?
    Why set widths and heights when they are not needed. You have no idea what height the ul and li will be in other users browsers. A child element placed inside a parent container will stretch to the full width without specifying a width for the child element. The key to web deisgn is keeping all the maths 100% correct. If you so much as get anything out by even one px it could break the design.
    #leftPan{
         margin-left: 90px;
         width: 140px;
    #leftPan ul{
         width:244px;
         height:250px;
         background-position: 0 0;
         padding-top: 0px;
         padding-right: 0;
         padding-bottom: 0;
         padding-left: 0;
         margin-top: 1px;
         text-decoration: none;
    I see no reason why your based structure ie the 'container', 'header', 'mainpic', sidebar1 and 'mainContent' should not work in all browsers. Now what you have inside those may be casuing the conflict. I would strip the page back to the base structure (check that it does work in all browsers) then begin to fill the containers, checking as you go.

  • How to remove white line that appears on background of flash file when viewing in powerpoint?

    When importing a swf file into powerpoint with a background colour a thin white line appears on the top of the flash movie when played in powerpoint. The white line disappears when you click onto another slide and back again, but always appears when initially playing the slide. Anyone have any ideas why this is and how to remove it?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Dom

    Doesn't the Location Bar (URL's) also disappear in the Add-ons Tab? <br />
    Separator or border used to delineate the User Interface (Toolbars) from the content area.
    Contact the developer of Tree Style Tabs. If that white line doesn't appear until you click on a Tab, I would call it a Bug or glitch in that extension.

  • What does Private mean at the bottom of my iPhone screen when viewing my windows in Safari?

    Private appears at the bottom of my iPhone screen while viewing open windows in Safari. What does it mean?

    Touching Private will switch ON/Off private browsing mode.
    Private Browsing
    Private Browsing in iOS protects private information and blocks some websites from tracking your behavior. Safari doesn't remember the pages you visit, your search history, or your AutoFill information.
    Note: While Private Browsing is enabled, the Safari bars appear black or dark.

  • Skipping Problem when vieweing Flash Videos

    Hi.
    I've downloaded and istalled the latest flash plugin, but
    videos on sites like youtube and google videos skip every few
    seconds. It's really, really annoying.
    I'm running XP on a 1.0 Ghz Athlon (not Athlon 64, just
    Athlon). Have about 320 mb ram. Also have this Riva TNT2 32mb video
    card.
    I've tried to watch videos on both Firefox 2 and Internet
    Explorer 7, but both are the same. When I download flash videos
    though, and play them through VLC player or something like that, I
    don't get any skips. It's just for online videos.
    No, it's not about loading the videos either. Even if I wait
    until the video's fully loaded, The skipping's still there. And no,
    nothing's running in the background as I play the videos.
    I've also tried to uninstall the plugin via the "flash
    uninstaller" downloaded from adobe, reboot, reinstall the plugin,
    reboot. No Dice. Also tried running a few antispyware programs.
    Still skips.
    I've tried turning off the windows firewall, and tried
    without any other anti-virus or firewall running, and still get
    skips.
    It's as if the video's refreshing every 3-6 seconds...
    Please help
    Edit:
    Just tried downloading Opera for the hell of it and trying to
    watch videos on it, but still get skips. Also tried firefox's safe
    mode (no plugins).

    Hi 9000,
    Have you verified flash is up to date? If it's not up to date, have you considered downloading & the latest flash player?
    While your at it, you may want to verify that Adobe ShockWave is up to date. And if it's not, download and install the latest 64-bit shockwave player.
    If your still having issues, have you tried using another account on your dad's computer? dose it have the same issue?
    if it's only your dad's account that has issues, you may want to try deleting flash cookies by using a program like Flush.app – Flash Cookie Removal Tool For OS X.

  • Movies flash problem - Internet Explorer 11 (Windows 8.1 Preview)

    Hi.
    I've got a problem with a flash content in IE v. 11 on Windows 8.1 preview. I'm unable to watch any movies requires flash (ex. movies on starwars.com or the movie on the Adobe test page) neither on Metro mode nor desktop mode. Hope u'll help me find solution.
    Regards,
    Simon.
    Edit: Ok, nvm. I found out what I have been doing wrong - I had got disabled shockwave add-on in IE options. Thanks anyway.

    Hi,
    Besides that, please also try to reset your Internet Explorer to check if it helps:
    1.Close all Internet Explorer windows that are currently open.
    2.Open the desktop, and then tap or click the Internet Explorer icon on the taskbar. Changing your settings will affect both Internet Explorer and Internet Explorer for the desktop.
    3.Tap or click the Tools button, and then tap or click Internet options.
    4.Tap or Click the Advanced tab, and then tap or click Reset.
    5.In the Reset Internet Explorer Settings dialog box, tap or click Reset.
    6.When Internet Explorer finishes applying default settings, tap or click Close, and then tap or click OK. You'll need to restart your PC for these changes to take effect.

  • Problem when open new window...

    Hi,
    I have a flash website and one problem with it.
    When I push on a button, it has to open new window.
    thumb1.onPress = function(){
    getURL("
    http://...............as.html",
    "_blank");
    But I want that the opened window will be no resizable, no
    location, no menubar, no scrollbar, no status, no toolbar, no
    fullscreen. Can actionscript do this?

    Hi, Motiejuss!
    You can use the getURL to call a JS function.
    Just like
    getURL("javascript:window.open('
    http://...as.htm', 'foo', 'width=400
    height=400');");
    But the best is to use ExternalInterface, in Flash 8.
    Bye,
    CaioToOn!

  • After copying a file from NTFS to HFS volume, file size changed when viewing in Windows

    Hi guys,
    I have a Mac Air running Mavericks on a HFS partition and Windows 7 on a BOOTCAMP NTFS partition. I have some files that I want to read/write from/to both systems. Since OS X can't write NTFS and Windows can't write HFS either, and I don't want to use any 3rd-party tools/drivers, I have to adopt a "stupid" way: in OS X, I copy those files from NTFS to its HFS partition, make changes, then switch to Windows and sync them back to NTFS.
    The problem is, after I copied a file from NTFS to HFS in OS X, it seemed ok. But when I switched to Windows, the very copied file in HFS partition had its size changed (bigger) although I didn't make any changes to it in OS X yet. This happens to almost every file I copied, text and binary. For those text files, I tried to open it with EditPlus in Windows and EditPlus reports the correct size on the status bar.
    How could this happen?

    I am not sure if this is what your seeing but...
    The same unaltered file on two different volumes might use different amounts of disk space. This is because a 'disk' is divided in to 'blocks' and a block (also historically known as a 'sector') is a certain minimum size. So if disk-1 has a block size of 512 bytes and disk-2 has a block size of 1024 bytes then a file containing just 10 bytes will use up twice as much space on disk-2 as disk-1 even though it is the exact same file.
    Beyond that, Macs can add additional information like Spotlight tags, labels, icons, etc. which make a file bigger. If you are modifying a file then presumably that also implies adding additional content e.g. for a Word document more text and this will make it bigger. Also depending on some programs are configured or designed 'deleting' text may only mark it as deleted and not really delete. This can apply to older versions of Word which has a 'Fast Save' feature, new versions have removed this and do a proper delete.
    You would have to give more details like what you are doing to the document, what kind of document, and what the two sizes are.
    Finally, there is one other potential difference, some systems and manufacturers use 1024 as a unit for measuring file and disk sizes, some use 1000. It will be the same number of bytes in each case but 1000 bytes in one case would exactly equal 1MB, and in the other it would be 0.9765MB.

  • Emails with Phantom Characters (again) when viewed by Windows Users

    Seems about every six months the problems of random characters showing up my emails from my Apple to Windows users. Usually this as been "B's" but lately "A's" with carrot signs over them.
    I have noticed that this comes from all my Apple computers so it not just one of my computers.
    I have put this "fix" in:
    http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20070808165831835
    But it does not seem to fix the problems. BTW--the random characters seem to pop up where space bar.
    Any clue what to do next--the window users are getting ****** at my emails.

    You do know RTF with Tiger Mail is not sent as HTML with a newly composed message unless certain things occur.
    Selecting a different font, font size or color from the font panel when composing the message - (using the default message font only via Mail preferences without making any other changes sends the message as Plain Text).
    Copy/Paste HTML formatted text from another source - website or another message that as composed in HTML.
    Using a Signature that was composed in HTML or uses a different font from the default message font or includes an image.
    Changing text format - bold, italics or underline for selected text.
    This link may be helpful but other than this and until MS decides to fix the related bugs - which they likely aren't very motivated to do in regards to Apple's Mail application.

  • Usage Tracking - Access problem when Authentication Mode = Windows

    Hi Everyone,
    I´m working on UPK Usage Tracking configuration, in order to provide the finished training material.
    1) In Server01 (on Window Server 2003) the UPK Usage Tracking is installed
    2) In Server02 (also on Windows Server 2003) the Usage Tracking database is installed
    3) By accessing the configuration file (http://Server01/ODSTrack/configuration/setup.aspx) on Server01,I setup the Authentication Mode = Forms
    Note: The rest of the configurations were done.
    4) Once the configuration from step 3 is done, I execute the traning material (on Server01) from another node of the windows network
    and as a result I´m able to perform it.
    5) I access the Statistc data on Server01 by accessing the file (http://Server01/ODSTrack/admin/default.aspx)and I´m also able to see the results.
    6) When I execute the step 3 but with Authentication Mode = Windows, and including the GROUP name (windows group specially created for this goal where my user is included),
    - I still have access to the training material (step 4)
    - I have NO aceess to the statistics data any more (step 5) and the following message is display
    "You do not have permission to access this page. Please contact your Usage Tracking Server Administrator to update your permissions. "
    I don´t know what else I can do, and I wonder if some other configurations need to be done at windows network and/or explorer lever or any other.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Best Regards//
    Rubén Zamudio

    Hi All,
    This problem was solved by reconfiguring Usage Tracking in the authentication method (was anonymous and the solution was Windows integrated).
    It is important to count on people from your organization working on Networks with some knowledge in IIS.
    Best Regards
    Ruben
