Flash z-index problem

hi!
I have problem with z-index of my flash animation.
On Mac everything works great (on Safari and Firefox), but on Windows I have the same problem on all browsers.
Basically, the dropdown menu is displaying below my flash animation instead of above.
I'm surprised on mac everything is working perfectly and it doesn't depend on the browser...
is maybe due to the published javascript code generated by Flash ?
thanks

Safari and Firefox Mac have very broken and slightly broken
Flash
Players. There is no viable workaround unless you want to
eliminate all
"hover" effects. Adobe claims it's an Apple or a browser bug.
Apple
claims it's a failure on the part of Adobe to "cocoa-ize"
something or
other.

Hi users,
Thanks for reply.
Actually the problem is -
For portrait dimensions are -
width 20
height 30
for landscape , obviously it will be
width - 30
height - 20
Thus , for second page - table width is 20 while page width is 30 and so 10 cm space remains blank on right side of page
user says that right side should not be blank, rather you extend table width to whole page width.
thats where the problem is

How I solved my Spotlight+ Mail indexing problem

OK, so I thought I would post my solution to a stubborn indexing problem, for people who may have the same issue (and it does seem many people do).
Problem: Spotlight index was unreliable. In particular, Spotlight was terrible at indexing mail. It could not find the messages by content that it would find by searching the "from" field, nor could it find those reliably. Unusable.
What DID NOT work:
-- adding and removing any folder whatsoever in the Privacy preferences of Spotlight. The index would rebuild, but with the same problems.
-- doing this via terminal (e.g, using sudo mdutil -E /Volumes/MyHardDisk)
-- using Onyx
-- using Spotless
-- simply reinstalling the system
-- manually modifying the plist files inside the .spotlight folder to add and remove the folders that would not get indexed.
What DID work:
-- first, I reinstalled the system. That's not such a big deal. Upgrade up to 10.4.6
-- then, I authorized the root user (that's probably not necessary) (this, you do by using Netinfo manager)
-- Then, I deactivated the index (via terminal:
sudo mdutil -i off /Volumes/MyHardDisk
-- now the tricky part. This concerns Mail, in particular.
I have a very complex mail folder (tens of thousands of messages). I noticed that inside each mail folder, I had two things that were not supposed to be there
1. a copy of each folder.mbox which was empty, but with the same name without the extension .mbox. This is probably something that was created while importing mail from Panther to Tiger, for what I can tell.
2. Most importantly, a file named ".index.ready". This also, apparently, was an old legacy coming from Panther. I suspect this was the main problem for the lack of indexing in Mail.
Ok, so... I deleted these folders and files. If you have a complex structure of subfolders, you can delete the files with an Unix command by first cd to your mail folder, and then use
find . -name \.index.r* -ok rm {} \;
which will ask you confirmation before deleting each file.
It was faster to remove the empty subfolders by hand, as they all had different names.
-- Ok, at this point, I erased entirely the .Spotlight-V100 directory which stays at the root of your computer. You can do it with a rmdir command from the terminal or, as I did, you can login as root (remember, we activated root), use a utility that allows you to see hidden files (e.g., Tinkertool), and move it manually to the trash folder.
Then I emptied the trash. For superstition, I restarted, and let the index be built again (that took about 5 hours in my computer, for an HD with about 60 gb occupied on it).
Now everything seems to work perfectly fine. I don't know whether this procedure can be shortened, but I do know that nothing else worked for me. I thought I would post it here as I spent sooo much time to solve this problem, and furthermore, I found that none of the suggested solutions would work.
OK, your responsibility to do it, if you want to do it. Hope nobody needs to!
Best to you all,
l.
Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Lucabo! Using ideas from your post, I also (at least for now) solved my Mail indexing problem. One day (not even after an upgrade) Mail just quit finding messages by content, even when I had open a message with that content!
What I did:
-- In System Preferences, told Spotlight to index only Mail (I just use grep from a Terminal window for everything else!)
-- Ensured Mail app wasn't running
-- Backed up my Library/Mail folder to an external disk
-- Turned off indexing via Terminal (after sudo sh), with
mdutil -i off /Volumes/MyHardDisk
-- Deleted old files in my mailboxes (inside the whatever.mbox folders):
.index.ready
mbox
tableofcontents
content_index
It was clear that mbox, tableofcontents, and content_index were left over from a previous version of mail - they hadn't been accessed since I upgraded.
Note that I didn't delete the whatever.mbox folders (just the plain mbox file inside)!
-- Deleted (in Terminal) the .Spotlight-V100 in the root directory
-- Restarted my Mac. The indexing started itself. Since I had it set up to index only Mail, it took about 3-ish hours to finish (I have 100s of 1000s of emails in thousands of folders).
After the indexing finished, all the test searches that I tried worked. From now on I will always be suspicious if search doesn't find anything!
Also, I just checked - using the Spotlight field on the menu bar now works better too. When the Mail search problem showed up, I tried using the Spotlight field and the Spotlight window, but they would just flash up a few items, remove the list, over and over, sometimes with the beachball, then finally settle to an empty list. Now the Spotlight field seems to work.
I infer that the Spotlight index gets corrupted, and that the Spotlight code doesn't notice that it's reading junk from the index...
BTW, about the same time that search quit working, some emails in my Inboxes got highlighted with a dark brown background color. Have no idea why. They aren't marked as Junk (the junk messages have the text in the usual lighter brown). But, when I select a message with the dark brown highlight, mark it as junk, then mark it as not junk, the dark brown highlight goes away. On some occasions, just quitting Mail and restarting makes the dark brown highlights go away - but not always. Sigh... at least it's not a show stopper, even if it is ugly!
Thanks again, Lucabo, for your post!

Flash Player sound problems on a 5.1 system

I don't know if i found the right topic for asking for this question, but here it goes.
I noticed that flash player has this issue with my 5.1 system, when i play music (and i mean any music, like my online radio, played through flash, or music through the site VK.com), the sound is extremely awful. Words actually can't explain it, there is no bass, and the sound, overall, seems to be of very low quality. But it's not. When the same music is played via stereo system (any), it seems to be perfect - with bass and etc.
Now i'm really confused. It's either a problem of flash, or a problem of somewhat in my system. My guess is that flash simply does not support audio output rather than 2.0. I will be really grateful if anyone will at least point me in the direction of the source of this problem; it makes my life miserable. Thank you.

Is it possible to have e version of flash player like silverlight which give thepossibility to hear audio on whole 5.1 system?
I have the following system computer:
Case: Thermaltake Mozart; PSU: Thermaltake Toughpower 750W; MainBoard: Asrock 4coredual-sata2; Heatsink: ZeroTherm Zen120; CPU: Core2 Extreme X6800 3,2Ghz; RAM: OCZ Platinum DDR400, 2x1 GB; GPU: Sapphire HD3850 AGP; PPU: BFG Ageia; HDD1: WD Caviar Blue WD5000AAKS; HDD2: WD WD2000BB; Monitor: Asus VB175T 17" 5:4; Audio System: danneggiato, in corso di sostituzione; OS: Xp Professional Sp3; Browser: Srware Iron.

Z-index problems in IE6

i managed to get IE6 to use z-indexes and layer properly..
everything that is except form elements specifically combo boxes
appear above my dropdown menus...??

This is not a z-index problem. It's due to the way that combo
elements are
drawn to the screen. There are only two solutions that I know
of -
1. Redesign the form so that there is no conflict, or
2. Hack the menu code so that the combo element is hidden
when the menu is
opened.

Help: Flash 9 - Video problem - OS X

OS X 10.4.8
I installed Flash 9 today, since then no more Google video.
Browser crashes each time. Also with other sites that use Google
video. Tried uninstall, and install Flash 8: same problem. Cannot
get back to previous situation where everything worked fine.
Also problem with msnbc, no video, claims plugin missing.
Youtube works fine.

Hi,
folder deleted, after reinstall only the two flash files in
the folder. Same problem.
Worse, now Google Finance also hangs up. Spinning wheel of
death, requires force quit. BTW, this is the same for Firefox,
Safari, and Camino.
If there is no solution, how can I get back to my previous
system. The problem started when the Charlie Rose website required
me to update flash. Before the update everything worked like a
charm. Now problems everywhere.

Does "_type" really have a leading underscore? That must be a PITA to work with. Sorry my bad it does not have an underscore.
the queries always states the type of the PARTY.
I am worried that this PARTY table is kind of abstract and we are putting two types of information into the same table.Does this effect my index design?

Table attribute assignments / indexing problem

Appears that in the out of the box Ultra Search setup Oracle overrides the basic assignments of attributes. For example if I assign Author search attribute to table field auth , it gets overriden and indexed from what was in the meta data field of the incoming document. If pdf or other doc type it uses that author meta data field of doc instead of what attribute assignment I made. Is this just for this version and the next version will have the option? It appears that no matter what, the override happens. Any help or suggestions in this attribute assignment and indexing problem?

This is a bug in 1.0.3 and has been fixed in 9.0.2 and 9.2.

Director MX 2004 + Flash MX 2004 - Problema con formulario flash con combos dentro de director

Buenas,
He desarrollado una aplicacion con base Director, que lleva
dentro un
formulario flash con varios combos tirando del componente
combobox del
mismo. Hasta ahora lo habia usado en otras aplicaciones con
una integracion
similar sin problemas, pero en este caso me ha surgido algo
realmente
extra�o, esto es, si pulso muchas veces en los combos
hay momentos en los
que estos se vuelven locos y se quedan como colgados (de
hecho la aplicacion
esta como colgada cuando pasa esto). Esto pasa mas a menudo
en windows 2000
por no decir la mayoria de las veces, y en XP pasa en
determinadas
circunstancias. He probado a quitar el direct to stage del
sprite flash,
ademas de quitarle la "animacion" que realiza al desplegarse,
y creo que en
xp el problema esta resuelto, pero en win 2000 me parece que
estamos en las
mismas.
El problema es que necesito combos para ese formulario, y no
me valen los
que trae Director por defecto, basicamente por el aspecto.
Tampoco puedo
permitirme el lujo de cambiar todo el formulario a Director
aunque usara un
xtra o un behavior, ya que esto lo entrego ma�ana y
tengo que matizar mas
cosas. Alguien ha hecho algo parecido, o ha tenido un
problema similar?
Muchas gracias y saludos a tod@s

Buen dia, el problema que tienes radica en la version de xtra
que
utiliza director para mostrar la info que hasta el momento
esta en la
version 7, lo que debes hacer es exportar los ficheros a una
version 7y funcionaran perfectamente.

Will Macbook Air(2012) with 256G storage flash have storage problem

Will Macbook Air (2012) with 256G storage flash have storage problem described in "MacBook Air Flash Storage Drive Replacement Program"?
In the web page http://www.apple.com/support/macbookair-flashdrive/, it says that Apple has determined that certain 64GB and 128GB flash storage drives used in the previous generation of MacBook Air systems may fail. I wonder whether Macbook Air with 256GB flash storage may come into the same problem?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
No. 256 GB flash storage does not have that problem. However, it's important that you make backups of your data to keep your files safe

9 problem with Chinese language

Thanks for the helpful posting. I came searching here for advice because I could not get my Flash Player 9 installation to succeed using the trouble-shooting information provided on the Adobe web site, and from experience I have come to know that my best resource in trouble-shooting is to seek the help of other Mac users.
In following your instructions I discovered that "Enable Flash" was not checked in my preferences, so that was definitely part of the problem. However, I still could not get Flash Player 9 to work, so after doing a Google search I found a posting on Version Tracker (under feedback at the bottom of this page: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/11622 ) that provided the last little bit of instruction I needed to get Flash Player 9 to function properly.
Before attempting to install Flash Player 9 I had used Adobe's uninstaller to uninstall previous versions, as instructed on the Adobe website. However, AFTER repairing my disk permissions, I needed to restart the computer and run the uninstaller again. After uninstalling I restarted once more, ran the installer and, VOILA!, finally Flash Player 9 worked as it should.

If you’re using the paired remote and the Apple TV status light flashes white, the problem isn’t with the remote.
Then what is the problem since I have troubleshoot my remote, it is working but cannot do anything on apple TV?

If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
(You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)

Request BIOS to fix an USB flash drive boot problem in EFI (GE60 0ND-265FR)

Hello,
I'm currently trying to install Ubuntu on my MSI GE60 0ND notebook but I'm having troubles to boot on my USB flash drive in EFI mode.
I've disabled Fast Boot and Secure Boot options but the only thing I can have is the GRUB menu of the liveUSB and whatever option I try I always get a blank screen. On the other hand everything works fine when I set the BIOS on Legacy mode.
It's the same problem they have on this thread : https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=165756.0 but with an other notebook.
The problem is I want to keep Windows 8 side by side with Ubuntu so I must have them both installed in EFI mode.
I asked for help on a specialized forum (french Ubuntu's community) and they believe this problem is related to the BIOS. Do you think an unlocked BIOS will help with that ?
Here are my current BIOs and EC infos :
BIOS Version : E16GAIMS.514
BIOS Build : 03/12/2013
EC Version : 16GAEMS1 Ver5.05
EC Build : 02/21/2013
Thanks for your help, and sorry if I've made English mistakes.

i don't know if unlocked BIOS can help you with this
