Flash reader versions

Hi all
can you help? In my (archaic) organisation we are using Flash
7, which is in the pipeline for upgrade any time now to ver9.
Question - does anyone know if there are any implications in
reversioning published files from 7 to 9, and if so what is the
workaround?
Many thanks for your help in advance
Robbie

Just to confirm - yes you are right, Flash player versions
are always
backwards-compatible, so if you publish for Flash 7,the files
will play
perfectly well in Flash Player 7, 8, 9, 10 and beyond.

  • New version of adobe flash reader

    Today I went into on-line banking for my bill payments via e-post, Got a message saying I needed to install the latest
    version of Adobe Flash Reader, which I did. I am using Windows 7 and use google. Since I installed the new version and click
    on a payee, I keep getting the same message saying install new version.
    My question is:DO I NEED TO DOWNLOAD GOOGLE CHROME IN ORDER FOR THIS TO WORK,

    You mean Adobe Flash Player?
    There's a forum for that.

  • How do I install Reader Version 8 and Version 11 on the same computer?

    I have old fillable forms that will not work with the free reader above vesion 8.  I also have programs that require the free reader version or above.  I am trying to get both the free reader versions 8 and 11 on the same computer.  When I installed version 11, version 8 was removed.  When I tried to reinstall version 8 the message said I had a more up to date version and the install stopped.  Any suggestions?

    Thanks for the suggestion, it worked!  What I had to do was after steps 1 & 2
    3.  move the entire Version 8 folder to a flash drive
    4.  reinstall Version 11
    5.  add a new folder called Adobe 8 to the program file directory
    6.  copy Version 8 folder from flash drive file to new folder
    7.  add shortcut to desktop.
    Now I can open my old forms in Version 8 and edit and save them.
    Thanks again.

  • Adobe Flash Player, version 10.1.102.64 installed, but I cannot access FP dependent applications

    Adobe Flash Player, version 10.1.102.64 is installed, but I cannot access FP dependent applications (such as those on Facebook.)
    I used the link you previously  provided  http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
    to  download the FP .exe and it worked for 2 days, but is no longer working and I'm getting the same message for both  Mozilla & IE. The only things I recall doing prior to FP not working again was 1) sign up for G Mail & 2) I used Save As to dwld a number of Images from Google.  I also rolled back my PC a day, but that has not fixed the issue.  I get the error both in IE & Mozilla.
    I've reviewed HK Local Machine/Software/Adobe, but there is no file folder for Flash Player under HK  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Adobe {though there are folders for Shockwave, etc.)  Does anyone know the KEYS for Flash  Player, that I could add manually?
    System Information:
    Win XP Home, SP 2
    IE 8.0.6001.18702
    Mozilla 3.6.12
    Flash Player 10.1.102.64
    Thanks for any & all help!

    Can you see the Flash animation at http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ ?
    Does it show some version information under it?
    Is Shockwave Flash object enabled in IE and FF?
    What files do you have in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash?
    Do you know that XP SP2 is no longer a supported OS?

  • 'To view this page ensure that Adobe Flash Player version 10.0.0 or greater is installed'?

    I have recently downloaded the newest version of flash player (version 11.9.900.117) and it is working fine with things like Youtube. However some websites that use flash player are coming up with the error message 'To view this page ensure that Adobe Flash Player version 10.0.0 or greater is installed'? I dont understand why this is happening as the version I have is 11.9.900.117 for Internet Explorer?? Please help this is driving me crazy!!!

    Exactly the same problem with me, and (apart from basic fix issues like disabling ActiveX filtering, etc) no-one seems to know a solution.
    OS: Win 7 64 bit
    Browser: IE 10
    Flash v: 11.9.900.117 (but problem continued after reverting to earlier versions with proper clean uninstalls of 11.9).
    I do note that at around the time the trouble started, Google Chrome did some (background) updates, including its embedded version of this latest flash. But if the others (above) don't also have Chrome, that is clearly not the issue. Perhaps it's a registry issue?

  • I use Adobe Flash player version 11.7.700.225 why do my YouTube and other videos keep stopping

    I use Adobe Flash player version 11.7.700.225 which is the latest version.  can anybody tell me why my YouTube and videos stop and I cannot view them I have a macbook pro with retina display late 2012 and I am running OSX 10.8.4. Do I need some other flash to view or what thanks for your time.

    noelenefromashford,
    I'm in the same boat. Safari 6.0.5, stalls, and stops playing video (youtube, vimeo, etc). I tried the same videos with Firefox and they play fine!
    Running 10.8.4 on Mac tower.
    I just switched from an older Macbook Pro 15" with the same OS version and browsers , and never had that issue. What gives?

  • Detect flash player version of published SWF

    Hi I have a swf file (let say child.swf).
    Once It loaded I want to know parent swf was published on flash player 9 or flash player 10. How to find that?
    Question:
    1)parent.swf loades child.swf
    2)after child.swf loaded --> need to check parent.swf is published on flash player 9 or 10.
    3)if parent.swf published on flash player 9 then child.swf will run a function
    4)if parent.swf published on flash player 10 then child.swf will run some other function.
    On the above for the based on the 2nd point question 3 or 4 will happen.
    On the above case I have only one parent... In some other case I may have multiple parents. My question to how to detect top most player's published version?
    Note:
    Capabilities.version returns current flash player version which is installed on browser (it is not help my question)
    The following link has infomation about As version used on the swf (it is not help my qeuestion)
    Detect ActionScript and Flash player version of Published SWF
    Thanks,
    Siva

    Any Idea guys?

  • Flash Player version with Captivate 7

    The publish option (for swf) on Captivate 7 starts at Flash Player version 10.
    Does that mean if you had content working perfectly well on Flash Player 9 in a previous version of Captivate, and you import it into Captivate 7 it now needs the learner to upgrade their Flash Player?
    I am currently developing content (on Captivate 7) in a global company where forcing IT to upgrade all the flash to version 10 world-wide is out of the question.
    So I'm tempted to edit the manifest and set the minimum Flash Player back to 9.
    Am I heading into trouble?
    Or is there just some feature of Captivate 7 I need to avoid using?

    Editing the manifest file of the SCORM package is NOT going to get you out of trouble if the SWFs in that package are not compatible with a Flash Player version below 10.  If Captivate 7 is using tags or code inside the SWFs it creates that can only work on FP10 then your end users would NEED to have FP10.
    Since Captivate 7 has only just been released, you cannot have gone too far down the road of developing this content.  I would recommend you get this sorted out BEFORE you create mountains of content that your end users may not be able to view on their FP version. Upgrade an entire course to Captivate 7 format and test it thoroughly on end users from your company.  If it turns out your content doesn't run perfectly, then you may need to roll back to Cp6x to continue with this client.

  • Issue with latest Flash Player version when replaying videos

    I am using an older version of JWplayer "5.10.2295" in a lot of sites and it was working fine so far. Since the latest version of Flash Player came out the videos can't be played a second time on any browser on Windows. It is working fine for me on Mac - quickly tested in Firefox (Nightly) and Safari (latest stable).
    Reverting to an older version showed that everything was working fine before. I tried the latest 13 and 14 from Archived Flash Player versions
    Has this kind of issue been reported already? Any change in the upcoming beta that might fix this?
    Thanks,
    Albert

  • I have installed the lastest Flash Player version 11.7 on ie however ie

    Ie keeps asking permission to install Flash Player version 11.7 and I have already installed it.  How do I get it to stop sending me this permission popup.  Please help.  Thank you.  todays date is May 7th 2013.

  • Server-side flash player version detection

    Does anyone know of a method to pull the users flash-player
    version number (the entire thing, not just
    &quot;&gt;6&quot; or &quot;9&quot; but
    &quot;9,0,115,0&quot;) that does not use browserhawk. We
    are building a troubleshooting page for our LMS built on ASP.net,
    and do not want to use javascript, or vbscript to pull the version
    number. We can use a javascript method if absolutely necessary, but
    want to explore any server-side methods we can use first. We don't
    want to use browserhawk as it is wholly too expensive for our
    purposes.

    I have done that temporarily, but we were hoping to do this
    without placing a Flash SWF on the page. We are building a
    troubleshooting page, and want to keep as many variables out of the
    calculations as we can. IE, if Javascript is the issue, then a
    Javascript to tell us the Flash version would be a bad idea. If
    Flash is the issue, then a flash element would be a bad idea. If we
    keep all of the calculations on the server-side, and not on the
    client-side, then we know that nothing of the clients is messing
    with the information displayed.

  • Does the last flash player version works correctly for Adobe portofolio file?

    I have a problem with some Adobe Acrobat portofolio files, they were created some months ago with Acrobat X pro version but right now can not be opened.
    The first message that appears is:
    "To view the Flash technology content in this PDF file, please install this version of Flash Player that supports Adobe Reader and Acrobat"
    When I select the option for more info appears:
    Online content cannot be displayed.
    I installed the most recently Flash player version but the problem is the same
    Actual Flash player installed version: 11.7.700.202
    OS: Windows XP 32 bits
    Browser : Internet Explorer version 8.0.6001
    Somebody have any idea?
    Please let me know, these files are really important for my work.

    There is a separate installer for using Flash with Acrobat.

  • Command line to detect installed flash player version

    Hi All,
    Happy New Year to you all.
    I have one desktop application (Flash Director/C++) for which I am developing Windows installer script. I am facing some problem developing the installer script regarding installed Flash Player version. When I am running the script, it is overriding the already installed Flash player irrespective of the version.
    Is there any command line (for Windows script) to know the version of the Flash player prior to install the installer contained Flash player so that I can check before pushing the installer Flash player?
    I would appreciate your quick reply.
    Thanks in advance.
    Sanjoy.

    Can anyone please give some inputs on this query?
