How can I play many swf files back to back in AS3

I have many swf files
fileA.swf , fileB.swf, fileC.swf
I want to play them from a MainFile.swf back to back, fileA.swf , then fileB.swf then fileC.swf ...then to remove them and have the MainFile.swf only.
How is this done in AS3.
can anyone send me the code needed to do this. i don't know AS3 very well. I know how to do this in AS2 , i used to put code loadmovie in each files last frame that loaded the next file to a mc object in the mainfile.
I would apprciate to have all the code appear only in the main file without haveing to code each seperate swf file.

You should work out how to do it with just one file first in AS3. The approach to doing many sequencially would be similar to what you did in AS2... the simplest way being to add a command at the end of each swf to trigger the main file to remove it and add the next swf. I don't know of any way to detect the end of an swf... it has to tell you it's done.
In AS3 you use the Loader class to load swf and image files. You use the addChild family of methods to place things on the stage, and you use the removeChild family to get them out of the picture.

How can I import a .swf file in Adobe Flash CS4?

Hi,
How can I import a .swf file in Adobe Flash CS4?
Thanks.

you can use file/import but that would be a mistake.
you should "load" your swf, not import it.
if you want to load it and need help, are you using as2 or as3?

How can I play MPEG-4 files in Premier Elements? It plays in iTunes but I only see video in Element

how can I play MPEG-4 files in Premier Elements? It plays in iTunes but I only see video in Elements

LGSh
Lots of questions, lots of answers needed as mentioned by Hunt. But please include what version of Premiere Elements that you are using when you reply.
How are you importing these file into your Premiere Elements project?
After you drag your file to the Timeline, do you see both an video and audio component (on Video 1/Audio 1) or is there nothing on the Audio 1 track? If you can see a wave form or file on Audio 1, have you checked all the program's volume settings including Edit Menu/Preferences/Audio Hardware and the ASIO settings?
More later.
Please do not hesitate to ask if you need clarification on anything written.
Thank you.

Can you play/view swf files on adobe air for android?

Hi, yes; I'm new here, as well as to Adobe Air, and I'm still trying to learn the ropes around here, and I apologize in advance if this has already been asked, or I have placed this question in the wrong forum.
The thing is, I was wondering if it was possible to play my SWF files via adobe air for android; and if so, how? Thanks in advance either way.

Can you please give directions where can i clear that cash.
Anyway i don`t think its the case, because this is first time i hooked phone to internet, and first time i launched Android app store.
Edit:
I went to https://market.android.com and there is Adobe air app. But when i try to download it says that my device doesn't support it (Samsung Galaxy GT-I5500) By default it comes with android 2.1 and doesn't support Adobe air, but i upgraded firmware to 2.2.
Maybe that is the reason it doesn't show me Adobe AIR in app store - based on my phone, not my Android version ?

Flash player can't play a .swf file alone

I've have a weird issue regarding flash.
I used Flash CS5 to create an interactive presentation. Everything works perfectly.
My problem is, for some unknown reason, everytime I try to open a stand alone .swf using flash player, the player always opens my interactive presentation instead and tries to load the .swf INTO it. Using the finder's info window, when I do select a .swf, I get the information all my .swf have been changed to "interactive presentation files", and the default application assigned to open these files is my own presentation.
I can manually change these settings to select Flash player or Flash CS5 back as the default application for all .swf's, but as soon as I close the info window, the files immediately becomes "interactive presentation" files again, so Flash player insists in openning the fiels inside my presentation.
There's a permanent way to fix this?
I'm using a Mac Intel core duo 2.
EDIT: I temporarily solved the problem deleting all copies of my presentation's projector. The flash player atemmpted to use another presentation instead to open .swf files, so I deleted that one too. After that, now plays the .swf files as normal. The only problem is, if for any reason I do re-install any of my interactive presentations proyectors, Flash player immediately tries to use them to play the .swf's... so the problem really remains unsolved.

The web flash player does not play stand alone .swf files on your computer.

How can I import an ibook file back into iBook Author?

I exported an ebook from iBook Author thinking it is the equivalent of saving the file.
I did not save the file, I only exported it and than exited the program.
My active file is vannished.
I need to make some adjustments to the ebook, but can not bring it back up.
Is there a way that I can re-import the iBook file back into iBook Author?
When I open iBook Author and try to open the exported file the program does not recognise the ibook file...
Thanks for your help!

Check for previous versions of that book in iBA....even if not saved.
You can dig into the .ibooks file by changing the suffix to zip, but you'll have to manually extract what you can from assets you find. Please only do this with your own books.

How can i open pc .swf files

How do I open PC .swf files? Dialogue message:The document “Chapter7_review.swf” could not be opened. AppleScript Editor cannot open files in the “AppleScript Editor Document” format."

It's normally adobe flash format.
If you don't want to install flash (Lion does not install it) use the 'google chrome' browser which has it's own flash player.
I use Lion > Safari > with No Flash installed and just use the develop menu option to open the page in chrome if necessary..

How can I get my swf files playing on browser?

Hello,
I've been designing my first website and have used dreamweaver, which is very new to me. I've followed a very good beginners guide to making websites and all was well. However, it had nothing about uploading swf files. So I did some research, and found that the easiest way was to insert them into a div box using the media section and choosing swf. again all was well, I can preview it in chrome etc.. and all works fine.
I've come to uploading my site and I've used filezilla, uploaded all the files but I can't see the swf playing on the website. I've looked into it and I just can't find the answer. I've tried uploading them directly into the root folder as well but that doesn't work.
Can somebody please help me!!
here are the links:
www.creativecanvassing.co.uk = the swf should be positioned between the orange logo and the "national direct marketing company' text. There is also the section in picture which has the same problem
not too sure how to attach the copy of the file that shows its all working
Thanks

Hello,
are you really sure that you have uploaded this page with contents? I've got this, when calling this link: http://www.creativecanvassing.co.uk/pictures.html:
Your swf file is running in my IE8 like a charm in all your other pages.

How can I encrypted my SWF file

Hi
I will create some SWFs and will want it to be played on WINCE device platform, but i need the SWF be encrypted and only played on my device. How can we do?

All rather vague so I'll just guess:
1. Restore from your back up
or
2. Use a file recovery application like File Salvage - you can download a free trial and it will scan the disk for you and tell you with might be recoverable. Actual recovery will require that you purchase the app. There may be many files with the same or similar names. Always recover the largest file size.
There are other such apps. Search on Macupdate or the App Store

How can I call in swf file to movie clip?

Hi all ...
This is my first post for advise, although fairly conversant
with flash and as2.
I am developing a new full screen background style website
and have menu buttons contained within a movie clip (nav_c1) ...
this re-aligns to the top centre of a page when user scales the
browser window.
I then have the content area (centre_content) movie clip ...
this realigns to the centre of the page when a user scales the
browser window.
I have scripted the menu buttons to goto a labelled frame in
the main timeline but I need, when at the labelled frame, to be
able to call/load in an external swf file to play 'inside' the
centre_content movie clip?
for example:
If I click my news button the flash file moves to the frame
label news on the main timeline. This then shows a duplicate of the
moive clip 'centre_content' which is called 'centre_news'. I need
to be able to call/load an external news.swf, containing all the
animated news info, to sit and play 'within' the movie clip
'centre_news' ... so that it is effectively contained 'within' the
movie clip file but loaded in place from an external swf file.
Can anyone help please?
I can post a rough working example online if need be.
Many thanks
A puzzled Adrian
ps: I don't think I am needing to load the swf to a level 1
area as I have tried this and instead of the swf file being loaded
and contained within my movie clip file/area it instead seems to
sit fixed on the main timeline (ie: not contained within the movie
clip area).

Thanks Sketchsta for you code. This looks like we're on the
right lines as I see what the code is trying to do.
Unfortunately though I can't seem to get this to work?
I created a new file to get rid of other scripting that was
going on and have placed a movie clip called centre_content onto
the main timeline in frame 1 ... then I have applied your script to
an actions frame above the movie clip also on frame 1. I change the
path_to_file line with my swf name (callin.swf) which is a 1 frame
flash file with some text on it ...
... but it doesn't bring in the callin.swf file ... it just
shows the centre_content clip.
Am i doing anything wrong?
I also tried putting the script onto the first frame inside
the centre_content movie clip but this doesn't appear to work
either.
Regarding the pre-loader ... can I simply build this into the
swf file that is being called in to the movie clip?
Thanks in advance for your support, it is much appreciated.
Adrian

How can I download a .swf file?

Hi everyone!
I'm trying to make an Objective-C application (using Apples Cocoa framework) to download .swf files off the internet.
All the my program requires ia the URL address of the .swf file, (http://media.y8.com/games/content/Bowser_Ball.swf, for an instance). And then you're supposed to click the "Start download" button to start downloading the .swf file. But how could I actually download the file, and save it to a file on the users disc?
What would you suggest? - Please post a snippet or a link for reference .

Ahh thanks, I got it downloading the .swf files now, and I can play them without any problems what so ever!
My only concern now is the user interface!
I have this message box in which it is supposed to print "Downloading and saving SWF file.." and then start the animation of a NSProgressIndicator and then print "Downloaded and saved!" and stop the animation of the NSProgressIndicator once the files is downloaded & saved.
But it's like it's downloading and saving first, and then starting and stopping the animation etc, etc.. so I never actually get to see the animation & text updates? - How can this be changed? - Here's a link to my Controller.m class:
