How do i make flash work with FF26 and Win8.1?

I understand that Windows 8.1 is now controlling Adobe Flash, but have been unable to find a way to make Flash work in FF26. All I find is a bunch of fingerpointing from each company at one of the other companies involved. There is no comprehensive explanation and nothing from any of the three to indicate a fix for the problem.
What is going on? When is the problem going to be fixed or how do I fix it now.
FF is the only browser I want to use, not IE.
Please post something concerning FF stance and/or solution to being held captive by IE!

OK, well I finally figured out how to make it work.
Windows 8.1 would not update Flash, as it said it didn't need to be updated.
In FF when you tried to install the plugin for Flash, Windows would block.
I had tried to install the downloaded .exe version of flash but that was also blocked from installing, so I tried the .msi version of the plugin version of flash, and low and behold it loaded and flash now works in FF26.
You need to download the plugin-based version with the .msi extension, make sure FF is not running before install.
The link to the correct Adobe page is:

  • How can I make it work with my iPad?

    I bought a wireless Hp6500 all in one printer yesterday. It works with my Mac Pro laptop... Now what do I need to make it work with my iPad?

    Is it a 6500 or a 6500A?  If the former, it will not support AirPrint, if the latter it will.
    It has to be connected to your network (wired or wireless, it does not matter), not just to a computer with USB.
    Once connected to your network, enable web services from the front panel of the printer and let it check for updates.
    Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

  • Z-index, make it work with MVThemeBasedFOI and MVFOI

    Hello, I'm using MapViewer with javascript library OracleMaps.js(Ver11_B091229). I'm using circles drawn with the MVCircleTool and some layers using MVThemeBasedFOI.
    Circle :
    * circle drawn event handler
    function circleDone()
         var geom = circleTool[nbrCircle-1].getCircle();
         highlightSelection(geom, true);
         circleTool[nbrCircle-1].getCircleFOI().setClickable(true);
         circleTool[nbrCircle-1].getCircleFOI().attachEventListener(MVEvent.MOUSE_RIGHT_CLICK, rClickCircleFOI);
         circleTool[nbrCircle-1].getCircleFOI().setZIndex(999);
    As you can see I have a right click event on it(used for contextmenu).
    ThemeBasedFOI :
    function addThemeBasedFOI(themeview, maxWholeImgLvl, minClickZoomLvl, clickable)
         var themeBasedFoi = new MVThemeBasedFOI(themeview,themeview);     
         if(clickable==true)
              themeBasedFoi.setClickable(true);
              arrayThemes[cptTheme]=themeBasedFoi.getLayerName();
              themeBasedFoi.attachEventListener(MVEvent.MOUSE_CLICK, foiMouseClickEvent);
              themeBasedFoi.attachEventListener(MVEvent.MOUSE_RIGHT_CLICK, mouseRightClickFOI);
    mapview.addThemeBasedFOI(themeBasedFoi);
         //set zoomlevel click and whole img level
         themeBasedFoi.setMinClickableZoomLevel(maxWholeImgLvl);
    themeBasedFoi.setMaxWholeImageLevel(minClickZoomLvl);
         cptTheme++;
    Things work fine individually but together, the MVThemeBasedFOI is over the Circle(it's an MVFOI).
    MVThemeBasedFOI index can be changed(if it works) with the MVMapView's method setThemeIndex(MVThemeBasedFOI, index). On its side MVFOI index can be changed by setZIndex(idx) method.
    I tried 999(the maximum value) for the circle and 1 for the layer but it changed nothing, the layer is still over the circle. Layer index doesnt work the same as usual zindex(if you see code of OracleMaps.js it's seems to be index*2+130), if index is 1 it should be(if i'm correct) 132, it's under 999 but it does not work.
    Any idea on how I can make it work ?

    yes that true, changing it later will be problematic. But if we have the break points already figured out and design finalized we just then have to open it in Muse and then add the features that muse has like scrolling effects and such. life would have been really simpler if that media query handle feature from EdgeReflow is placed in Muse. On the other hand i don't mind if reflow has the scroll effects and all the cool things Muse has. Its possible to do a really nice responsive website with reflow and edge animate and then polish your site with dreamweaver and publish it to BC. Just that i like the features of Muse and the ease of designing but it lacks the true responsiveness we need, i know you can give full width and try make it look like responsive and then you have 2 more websites to finish, the mobile and tablet versions of the website. So its a lot of work, it doesn't really make it easy to keep up with this evolving web design industry. So i think i will stick with edge reflow, dreamweaver and edge animate till Muse becomes responsive fully.

  • How can I make a slideshow with pictures and burn it to a dvd? what program to use?

  • How can I make a slideshow with music and burn it to a disk?

    I need to make a photo slideshow with music and burn it to a disk. I am able to make the slideshow but I cant figure out how to save it or burn it to a disk.

    How do you want to play the slideshow?  On another computer or on a TV set?
    If it's the former export the slideshow as a QT movie file to the desktop and burn that file to a disk with the Finder.
    If you want to create a video DVD of the slideshow so that it can be viewed on a TV set, use the Share ➙ iDVD menu option.  That will export the slideshow into iDVD where you can complete the menu and project design.
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option.  This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.  To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good and you can then burn to disk with Disk Utility at the slowest speed available to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatium, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

  • How can I make Mail work with iCloud in 10.6?

    I was really comfortable with the Mac Mail application on my computer.  I was forced to move my email to iCloud.  Now I have to do all mail business on the iCloud website.  What a hassle.  I cannot upgrade to Lion or Mountain Lion because my bread and butter relies on programs that work best in Snow Leopard.  I heard there was a way to make the Mail application continue to work in 10.6 with the new iCloud mail.  Does anyone know how?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    This step-by-step illustrated guide from Roger Wilmut is what I used as a guide to install iCloud mail in Apple Mail 4.5 on Snow Leopard 10.6.8.

  • How can I make Ted work with ibus?

    the title says it all.
    Relevant: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=78323

    You might want to consider the same thing that I do when I'm traveling, when the hotel only provides a wireless connection, and I want to set up my own private wireless network for both wireless and wired devices in the hotel room.
    One AirPort Express is configured to "join" the wireless network that the hotel provides.
    I connect an Ethernet cable from the Express that is configured to "join" the wireless hotel network to a second AirPort Express that is configured to "create a wireless network".
    Works fine. I can connect as many devices as I want to my "private" network.

  • How to control adobe flash files with sliders and buttons

    Hi,
    I am trying to make a front panel for a vehicle completely designed in flash, and control it through labview.  I can load a flash file into an activex container successfully.  I have followed this thread here http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170​&message.id=351719  and gotten everything working. 
    But my question is, how can I send data to the flash file from labview?  Some examples of things I need to do:  Interpret a CAN signal and have some text appear on the screen, Make buttons flash, etc.
    I understand how to load the swf, Im just not sure how to communicate with it.  One thing to mention is that the front panel for the vehicle will be fully custom coded.  However in the meantime, I am trying to figure out how to control it from labview.  Like if there is a clock.swf out on the net, how can I change the time from labview?  Is there a way to see what parameters are available for changing?
    Thanks in advance

    Hello,
    What specific Active X framework are you using to embed the container? The thread you referenced mentions Shockwave's Active X API, does this set of Active X functions expose methods for object control? 
    Could you elaborate as to the driver behind a fully Flash based front panel embedded within LabVIEW? Is this application inevitably going to be deployed as thin client software? 
    For interaction with custom flash applications aside from Active X, LabVIEW has an integrated Web Services feature to allow data transfer from custom thin client applications to the LabVIEW environment for processing and instrument control. A detailed discussion of the Web Services feature may be found via the links below:

    Please post back any further questions, or information on the system design.

  • How can i make audio player with osmf??

    i want to know how can i make audio player with osmf and flex4.5 ?

    Thanks again...I suppose I'd just like it louder in case the radio is on when the directions are given. The difference between the iPhone & Nokia is like night & day!
    BTW, do you know if the Maps program is using data from my cell phone plan as we drive? Or are the corresponding maps downloaded into the phone once for the trip?
    Thanks again!!

    Hi juderocks14,
    Please first take a check with the other Players and see if they could play the MP4 file normally. If it can't be played, which means it might be corrupted. You may ask at the Bandicam side, or save the files again.
    If issue insists, take a try with the Troubleshooter (For Windows 7, 8 and 8.1):
    Open the Windows Media Player Settings troubleshooter
    Fix Windows Media Player video, and other media or library issues
    Or you may try to turn Windows Features on or off to reset Windows  Media Player:
    Turn Windows features on or off (Before turn it on again, please remember to reboot first)
    More reference:
    What happens if I turn off Windows Media Player?
