Flash works in mini but not macbook?

ok, so macs are not in "good terms" with flash based programs... my problem ...
i have a ppc mac mini, tried it with flash based websites and fan started to spin. so to avoid such problem i avoided the website.
now playing a flash based game using flash projector for mac ppc version works fine for my mac mini. however when i tried the latest flash projector universal it does not work fine, fan started to spin at high speed so had to go back to flash projector ver 8 and everything works ok
the problem... using my macbook where can i get a decent flash projector? because all the projector i used to play the game makes the fan runs high once in a while... (from old ppc flash based projectors up to flash projector v.9)

Flash sites use a lot of CPU, which gets the fans going. It's normal.

Script Works on MacBook and Mac Mini but Not MacBook Air

I just bought a new Mac Mini and 11' MacBook Air, and I have a script that works on the former but not the later. Running it on my Air generates the error, "error "Finder got an error: Can’t set alias "My Hard Drive!:directory path:File Name copy.doc" to "FileName}doc"." number -10006 from alias "My Hard Drive!:directory path:File Name copy.doc".
Here is the script:
tell application "Finder"
set theFile to item 1 of (get selection)
set TheName to name of theFile
set duplicatedFile to (duplicate theFile) as alias
end tell
set capName to do shell script "/bin/echo " & quoted form of TheName & " | /usr/bin/awk '{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++)sub(/./,toupper(substr($i,1,1)),$i)}1' | tr -cd [:alnum:]_. "
tell application "Finder" to set name of duplicatedFile to capName
set longURL to "http://domainname.com/" & capName

tell application "Finder" to move (duplicatedFile as alias) to trash

There is a problem with duplicate names.

I am not sure what statement failed for you. Please clarify if I guessed wrong.
I did encounter some problem with the exclamition point in a name.
There could be a problem with exclamation point in a url, but didn't try.
You could use unix to do the rename.
tell application "Finder"
   set theFile to item 1 of (get selection)
   set TheName to name of theFile
   set duplicatedFile to (duplicate theFile) as alias
end tell
log duplicatedFile
set capName to do shell script "/bin/echo " & quoted form of TheName & " | /usr/bin/awk '{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++)sub(/./,toupper(substr($i,1,1)),$i)}1' | tr -cd [:alnum:]_. "
-- Use unix to rename
set unixName to POSIX path of duplicatedFile
log "unixName=" & unixName
set baseP to do shell script "dirname " & quoted form of unixName
log "baseP=" & baseP
set baseN to do shell script "basename " & quoted form of unixName
set baseN to quoted form of baseN
set baseP to quoted form of baseP
-- Rename the file.
set what to do shell script "cd " & baseP & "; " & "mv " & baseN & " " & capName
-- tell application "Finder" to set name of unixName to capName
log "what=" & what
set longURL to "http://domainname.com/" & capName
log "longURL=" & longURL
set curlCMD to "curl --stderr /dev/null \"http://bit.ly/api?url=" & longURL & "\""
log "curlCMD=" & curlCMD
set bitLy to (do shell script curlCMD)
set the clipboard to bitLy
set curlFTP to "curl -T " & quoted form of POSIX path of duplicatedFile & space & quoted form of ("ftp://unsername:[email protected]/path/" & capName)
do shell script curlFTP
tell application "Finder" to move (duplicatedFile as alias) to trash

Tethering working on MacPro but NOT Macbook Pro

Having a problem with tethering when using it with my laptop. Macbook Pro (6.1), Snow Leopard 10.6.6 and Aperture 3.1.1.
My MacPro is working without any problem. (Snow Leopard 10.6.6 and Aperture 3.1.1)
I have tried both my cameras Canon 5Dmk2 and Canon 20D. Both cameras are recognized in both Macbook Pro and MacPro but only on the MacPro the images will show up. In my Macbook Pro I can press capture and both cameras react but then nothing happens.
Strange it works on one computer but not the other one.
Any suggestions?

You're right it is strange. As it works on one system and not the other with the exact same camera and cable and the fact that you hear the shutter go off even on the system where the images don't show up would seem to indicate some difference in the configuration of Aperture on the MBP.
Do the images ever show up? If you go to the Photos icon and search you're complete library do they appear anywhere? There isn't a filter set on the project your importing into by any chance?
I would make a new empty library and try using that to see if it makes any difference. You could also move the com.apple.Aperture.plist file from your Library/Preferences folder to the desktop, restart Aperture and see if that makes any difference.

Safari without flash works on iPad but not on mac

I decided to remove flash from my mac, because I have found that a lack of flash really wasnt causing me any major problems on my ipad.
However, when I access some sites, like this one..... http://www.dailyfrail.com on my ipad the embedded video works just fine, but on my mac it wants a plugin.
I tried using the develop option to pretend to be an ipad, but it still wants a plugin.
How do I make safari on mac work as good as safari on an ipad?

The site requires Flash.
The 10.6 Flash plugin works on v10.7.
Adobe - Install a different version of Adobe Flash Player

Flash works in firefox but not IE

Here is my problem:
Flash in IE looks like this:
http://www.vistax64.com/attachments/browsers-mail/24379d1315578852-flash-content-ie-ie8_fl ash.jpg
It should look like this (and it does in FF):
http://www.vistax64.com/attachments/browsers-mail/24380d1315578852-flash-content-ie-ff_fla sh.jpg
Here is what I have tried so far:
remove and reinstall flash latest version
made sure flash plugin is enabled
disabled all AV/malware sofware and plugins
cleared internet & flash cache
upgraded from IE7 to IE8to IE9
used IE's reset function
It happens on a 32 bit vista and W7 machine in our office. It is not due to our firewall blocking anything because xp clients and FF load the content fine. I have IE8 on both machines now.
I also went thru the sets here:

and thinking this might be my problem, tried this:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2069313#2069313
But not having luck so far.
Any suggestions would be most welcome. Thanks!

Thank you for adding the bug and your two dxdiag reports. After taking a look, it appears your video drivers are out of date. The EliteBook is using an Intel HD driver with version 2189, Intel's site has version 2509 available. The other system appears to be using the standard VGA adapter driver. Could you try the last driver update that HP made available? It might not make a difference, but it's a typical step in trying to debug this issue.
Thanks,

Got a new dell laptop. adobe flash works on IE but not with Firefox. Manual installation failed. help!

When trying to install adobe plugin, it fails, as does trying to do it manually. When trying manually, it says to close firefox then it will work but it doesn't. Again, when under IE, adobe flash works but I prefer Firefox.

In step one you would have downloaded that file, if Firefox is using the normal configurations you should find it in the same location where you download any other files.
To find out where Firefox downloads files, in the options window go to the general panel and it should show where files are downloaded to. Alternatively if Firefox stores the history of downloaded files, open the downloads window (you can do that by using keyboard shortcut Control+J), right-click on the install_flash_player.exe entry in the download window and select "Open containing folder"

Flash working in preview but not in any browsers

I've created a Flash animation and inserted the SWF file (created in Flash 8) into my Dreamweaver CS2 file. It all works fine in preview (both in Flash and Dreamweaver). But on any of the browsers the public file doesn't show the flash animation.
I have a transparent layer in Dreamweaver over the SWF file so that I could put hotspots which are working.
Here is the link to the website: http://www.manfredsbikerepair.com/ (click Enter).
I've updated AC_RunActiveContent and downloaded a trial FlashCS5 but still no luck.
Any help would be appreciated.

According to page's source code you are trying to use the AC_RunActiveContent.js file via your local drive. You'll need to place that on the server and link to it properly.

Wifi works on iPhone but not MacBook with more bars!

so, sitting in the same spot my MacBook Pro has 4/4 bars but the wifi only works for five seconds at a time (not literally but it feels like it), then I have to disconnect and reconnect. My iPhone has 2/3-3/3 bars and the wifi works great! why is this? Shouldn't the MacBook have better reception as its bigger/has more power? Why does it show more bars than the iPhone but hAbe a worse connection?

Start up in Recovery mode. In the OS X Utilities screen, select Get Help Online. A clean copy of Safari will launch. No plugins, such as Flash, will be available. While in Recovery, you'll have no access to your saved bookmarks or passwords, so make a note of those before you begin, if they're needed for the test.
Test. After testing, restart as usual and post the results.

WiFi in Asia works on iPhone but not Macbook Pro

I am currently traveling around Asia and I have my Macbook Pro and iPhone with me. I have had no problems connecting to WiFi networks with my iPhone (currently typing this message with it on my hotel's WiFi). However, my Macbook Pro has had endless issues. Sometime it works, but often it doesn't. The most common issue is that it gets a self assigned IP address and can't connect to the internet. It can usually find and connect to the WiFi network, but from there things get dodgy. As I said, it sometimes works fine. I would say it works on 1 out of every 3 networks that I try.
So far I have tried the following:
Renewing DHCP Lease (without client ID and with made up client ID)
Disabling firewall.
Turning off wifi and them back on.
Restarting computer.
Deleting WiFi service and recreating.
Creating new "location".
Repairing permissions.
Using different login account.
Manually entering TCP/IP settings copied from iPhone.
"Forgetting network" and rejoining.
None of the above has helped, except that one time renewing DHCP lease with a made up client ID did the trick.
I have the summer 2012 MacBook Pro 13" with OS 10.7.5 installed.
Any help would be very appreciated. :)

It doesn't seem like anybody is going to respond to this thread, but I guess I will keep updating it just in case (and perhaps if I ever find a solution it will be helpful to others).
Since my last post I have been to about 12 hotels in both Thailand and Cambodia. This issue has continued with some variations:
* At 3 of the hotels the wifi on my MacBook Pro actually worked! It seemed to work ok, with minimal speed issues.
* At 6 of the hotels the wifi did not work on my MacBook Pro, but worked fine on my iPhone.
* At 3 of the hotels the wifi worked on my MacBook Pro but was PAINFULLY slow (to point where I couldn't upload photos, could barely check facebook, etc). In fact, it was so slow that I basically gave up using the internet with my MacBook Pro and used my iPhone instead (which had normal speeds).
I have continued to search the internet for solutions and nothing has helped yet. It seems like this is a common issue with newer MacBook Pros, especially with OS Lion.
I have also concluded that this isn't necessarily an Asia specific issue. It seems like an issue with my MacBook Pro and using various WiFi routers with various setups. Some work, but most do not. Unfortunately I do not have access to any of the routers that I am using, so changing router setup is not an option.

Netflix works on iphone but not MacBook Pro?

I'm a new Apple Macbook pro guy. Switched from Window PCs after getting my iphone. I downloaded the Netflix for iphone - works great, but Netflix on my MAC wants Silverlight. Is that secure? I heard you also have to enable JavaScripts - Java is secure, but JavaScripts are not?
Old guy needs some help :-)

Mp3 software worked for iBook but not MacBook

My MP3 (MPIO FL100) player's software uploads onto my macbook, but does not show up in iTunes. I bought it in 2003 and it worked on my old iBook. Does anyone know how I can get a non-ipod mp3 player to work on my intel -mac?
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Hi All,
We're in the process of moving from Unified Messaging to Cisco Unity. In the past, I had successfully applied the following Retention Policy Tag which worked with UM:
New-RetentionPolicyTag "Voice Mail 60 Day Retention" -Type All -MessageClass voicemail -Comment "Untagged messages removed after 60 days." -RetentionEnabled $true -AgeLimitForRetention 60 -RetentionAction DeleteAndAllowRecovery
Now, with Cisco Unity, I see that the voicemails show "Expires: Never."
The Cisco voicemails differ from UM in that instead of being *.mp3 files, they are *.wav.
I cannot figure out a way to create a Retention Policy tag that deletes a specific file type. Any ideas?
Thank you,
MrMister
Those don't exist. The tags work on message class. The Cisco VMs are not the same forms as the Exchange UMs essentially.

FaceTime works on iPhone but not macbook..? HEEELP.

Facetime makes/recieves calls as per usual with iphone, but Macbook pro is unsuccessful- says 'connecting' and rings without ever getting through/does not recieve incoming facetime from other devices.

Hello emilia_,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with FaceTime. It sounds like you have isolated the issue to your MacBook Pro.
You may be experiencing this issue due to an expired certificate that can be updated by running the software updates on your MacBook Pro. I recommend reviewing the following article:
Unable to make or receive FaceTime calls after April 16, 2014
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5419
If your software is up to date, I recommend continuing to troubleshoot with the steps in the following article:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.

Flash works in Explorer, but not in Ignite software

I recently purchased Ignite, a music composition software. It has tutorial videos, but they won't play. I have Flash in Internet Explorer and it works fine. Please help.

Typically applications are embedding instances of Internet Explorer, so if Flash is working normally in IE, it would work in the embedded IE instance. They're probably doing something unique, and you'll need to ask them for advice.

UTube video sound works on iPhone5S but not on Macbook Pro?

UTube videos from a variety of sources works on iPhone5S but not on Macbook Pro? Thinking it has to do with recommended Flash settings on the MAC. Is there an app to resolve this inoperability on a MAC without having to make Flash active?

What format is the video? Is it .wmv? Do the DVD's have any type of protection or encryption? This information will help in finding a solution.
