HELP PLEASE: .swf Controls take over in Powerpoint Slideshow

Hi,
I have a .swf embedded within an Powerpoint slideshow. When I
use the controls I've set within the .swf file (pause, play, replay
animation) I no longer can use the Powerpoint slideshow mode
controls (forward or backward to next slide). If I don't touch the
controls within the .swf, letting the .swf animation play through,
the Powerpoint slideshow controls work fine.
Can anyone offer any workarounds that may enable me to use
the .swf file controls while in Powerpoint slideshow mode, yet not
loose the ability to advance to the next slide (using the arrow
keys) in Powerpoint?
Thanks!!

Hi Michael,
I'm  not an expert however if I understand the links correctly, it's saying that you are missing the .webm extension for apache which is server side. I'm not a dev geek so I really can't dive into it with any type of authority.
I viewed it with IE and I got "invalid source". Which means the files maybe corrupted, something is just slightly off in your coding, or you need to add that .webm extension (which I have no idea how to do). It seems highly unlikey that your server is not set up for this though >
For some reason this doesn't seem right to me. If the files are .mp4, ogg and vp8 then what is the reference to shockwave?
<embed src="Laser.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="650" height="400" />
Try this link: http://www.htmlgoodies.com/html5/client/how-to-embed-video-using-html5.html#fbid=96yfRXf_d N9
Give that technique a shot and see how it goes.
Hopefully somebody with more technical expertise will put in their "two cents".
Good luck.
Ed

  • Need help please swf html not working right

    Hello everyone,
    I created a game in keynote for my HS kids with links to the right slide according to whether or not they are the correct answer.
    I exported it to flash. I got two files xxx.swf when I click on this on my desktop it opens in safari with a black background and it plays.
    the second file is xxx.html when I click on this on my desktop it opens in safari and plays in a smaller frame with a white background.
    So I uploaded my swf to idisk and I copied the content of the HTML in a snippet. I thought it would work. It does not.
    I could not care less about the background I just want one or the other to work but I can figure it out.
    Thank you in advance for your help
    Mireille

    Upload the SWF and the HTML file to your website folder in Finder/Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites.
    Create a link on any web page to the HTML file....
    http://web.mac.com/username/WebsiteName/xxx.html
    ... and select "open in a new window" if you want.
    Clicking the link should then open your movie to play in a new window.

  • I need serious help please.. We do translations of schoolbooks, I looked for an over-type function but were unable to find, we are working in indesign CS 5. it takes up allot of time to delete text and type in the new language.

    I need serious help please.. We do translations of schoolbooks, I looked for an over-type function but were unable to find, we are working in indesign CS 5. it takes up allot of time to delete text and type in the new language.

    Argh that's frustrating! I never noticed that key did not work in InDesign.
    A bit of research and it turns out the MS Office has this as an option in their software. But I cannot find an option in InDesign preferences to make this work.
    However, somethings are not listed in the shortcuts and preferences and are hidden triggers in InDesign which can be accessed through a script.
    I'm not saying it's possible to activate the Insert Key through a script, but it's plausible that it can be activated.
    Maybe ask on the scripting forum? InDesign Scripting
    I know this may be a possibility as with InDesign's earlier versions of PDF export to interactive documents there previously was no way to export interactive pdfs as single pages if in Spreads.
    But the option to toggle this setting was scriptable.

    Thank you.

    OK. I am having a little bit of trouble understanding your responses, but let's start with this since you are having an issue with other apps as well.
    Reboot your iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up completely and then try again.

  • Firefox start page is several times normal size; takes over the other programs on the computer; requires control-alt-delete to close; closes other programs as well.

    '''bold text'''When Firefox is open, email message opens in Firefox in super-size and difficult to use.
    Remedies tried at suggestion of another technician:
    Reduced zoom level in F.
    Opened in safe mode & checked square icon in top right corner
    Reset toolbars and controls in safe mode
    Uninstalled and reinstalled
    Tried restore defaults
    Ticked all options in Safe Mode and clicked "Make Changes & Restart"
    Pressed F11 on keyboard
    Right clicked on F icon & clicked compatability option.
    Fixed one problem
    Statement : "Firefox is incompatabile"; did not fix; couldn't see any way to fix.
    Note: when I used Firefox before, my operating system was Windows XP. On one window, there was a reference to Windows XP but no way shown to fix.
    Friends, I have been struggling with this problem for serveral weeks and many hours. Internet Explorer has become a nightmare and I need to use Firefox. With all respect, it seems to me the reputation of the organization is at stake. Help!
    One last question: is there someone I can trust who could take over my computer and solve this? Thank you!!!!!

  • Hello.I wanted to upgrade my iPad 1 to iOS 5.1 Over the Air.I was running iOS 5.0.1.It said it had an error connecting to server.It is already 5 hours i cant install this update.I also have an iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0.1 with the same issues.Help please!

    Hello.I wanted to upgrade my iPad 1 to iOS 5.1 Over the Air.I was running iOS 5.0.1.It said it had an error connecting to server.It is already 5 hours i cant install this update.I also have an iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0.1 with the same issues.Help please!

    You're probably running into the servers simply being swamped. Thousands of people are all going for the software update at the same time. Give it a try again and if that doesn't work, then try plugging it into your computer and trying it that way.
    I didn't get a notion of the size, it doesn't seem to be as big as the 700 meg 5.0 update, but it did take me 20+ minutes to download via cable internet so it's a large file. That in and of itself takes a while.
    If you're trying to download it directly to your iPhone, you'll need to be on wifi since I'm sure it's well over the 20 meg file size limit for 3G.

    I have recently had problems in getting my Adobe Premiere Elements 10 to run. One of the gentlemen was able to take over control of my computer, and got it working for me, however since that time the program will sometimes open but most times it just freezes the computer and I have to shut it down and re open without any success with opening the elements program.
    Can you help

    Sosure
    What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 10 running on?
    What video card/graphics card does your computer use? NVIDIA GeForce? If so, please read the Announcement about the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA GeForce issue which is found at the top of this web site. Does that apply to you? The explanation for the situation and the fix (roll back of the driver version) are all included in that Announcement.
    We need to rule in or out this factor at the onset before we get to other questions
    a. non NIVIDIA video card/graphics card driver
    b. project preset and properties of source media
    c. computer details
    More later.
    We will be watching for your reply.
    Thank you.

  • My iPhone gone mad can't turn off voice control which turned on by itself now can't access phone as can't get past my screen lock! Also it keeps calling random people in my contacts help please

    iPhone 4 gone mad voice control taken over phone, can't get past my screen lock it won't  respond at all, keeps dialling random people won't do anything at all!!! Even when go on voice control screen and hold power off and home screen down nothing No response. Help please? My mother very sick in hospital and need my mobile!!

    Have you tried to power off and on?  If that doesn't work and the reset didn't work, have you tried connecting to iTunes to see if it is recognized?
    If none of this works you probably need to visit an Apple genius bar and have it checked out by the techs.
