How does Flash Player projector/standalone connect to the Internet

I know that when a web service call is made from a flash player in the browser that the underlying browser is used to handle the traffic.  I also know that this isn't the case with flash projector because the security docs say that the projector files can't take advantage of SSL because they aren't run in the context of the browser.  So what mechanism does a standalone or projector application use to connect to the Internet?  I'm trying to analyze a possible application for someone from a security point of view, but I'm not sure what mechanism is in place.
Thanks to anyone who knows or even knows of some decent references.  I can't find much on projectors....

As far as I know, the standalone player does not connect to the Internet - it just plays local Flash content.
Or can you actually give it an Internet (http) location to play?  (I do not currently have Projector installed, so I cannot try it.)

  • "Your computer does not seem to be connected to the internet." when trying to sign into Lightroom Mobile

    I want to connect Lightroom 5.5 with Lightroom mobile. I click on the identity plate in Lightroom and select "sign in". A window opens saying "connecting...". Eventually the message changes to "Your computer does not seem to be connected to the internet." My machine is a Windows 8.1 PC and I already tried to solve the issue by allowing LR through the firewall.

    I just found a solution:
    - Close Lightroom
    - Rename your .lrprefs file to e.g. .lrprefs.old
    - Launch LR
    - Sign in
    - Close LR
    - Delete the newly created .lrprefs file
    - Rename your previous .lrprefs file from .lrprefs.old to .lrprefs
    - Launch LR again and sign in

  • How does Flash Player determine if TLS is available?

    In ActionScript, there is a setting called "flash.system.Capabilities.hasTLS" that determines whether or not the Flash Player can make native SSL/TLS-based connections.  The definition of this property says " Specifies whether the system supports native SSL sockets through NetConnection (true) or does not (false)." 
    How does Flash determine whether this property is true or false?  Is the value passed to the Flash player by the browser?  Does Flash figure it out from the environment?  If so, how?

  • How does Flash Player differ on various browsers?

    Internet Explorer: Flash Player is installed as ActiveX® plug-in. Installing Flash Player in Internet Explorer doesn't install Flash Player on other browsers, such as Mozilla Firefox, Opera, and Netscape.
    Mozilla Firefox / Opera / Netscape: Flash Player is installed as a plug-in. Installing Flash Player in any of these browsers automatically installs Flash Player in other browsers too. For example, if you install Flash Player in Mozilla Firefox, Flash Player gets automatically installed in Netscape if Netscape is present in your machine.
    For installing Flash Player in a browser, using the browser, go to Adobe site. Download Flash Player and double-click the downloaded file to install Flash Player.
    Google Chrome: Flash Player is integrated with Google Chrome. You don't need to install it separately.

    Have you installed Flash from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html#main_Archived_versions the latest version of Flash for your phone is "Flash Player 11.1 for Android 4.0 (11.1.115.63)".

  • How on earth could I be connecting to the Internet through my airport express when it is not connected to anything?

    I'm not entirely displeased with the situation but I cannot see how I could be connecting to the Internet through my airport express when the Airport is not connected to anything.
    Weird huh?
    I have a separate non- Airport wireless network connected to the Internet.  I had previously set-up the Airport to link with this network but disconnected it (by resetting it) as music streaming was unlistenable due to frequent drop out.  I now just have the Airport Express as a standalone wireless network only connecting to the stereo to stream music from devices.
    My devices are only connected to the Airport network with cellular data off. Yet I can still connect to the Internet AND listen to streaming music (without drop-out no less).
    I don't want to fix it but I would like to know how the frag it could happen so i don't screw it up accidentally.

    I would say you still have something of the previous setup.
    To be sure you don't mess up, save the configuration.. go to the top menu area of the airport utility and export configuration.. which will land on your computer.
    Now you can recover at anytime to the current setup.
    How it works.. that is magical ..
    Open the airport utility.. edit.. and take a screenshot and post it of the following pages..
    Internet wireless network
    THen we can tell you how it is working.

  • I am unable to connect to the internet, there is a pop-up that says "We're sorry, but the Safari browse version you are currently using dos no support the community toolbar". My computer does say that it is connected to the internet until I open Safari.

I have tried Network Diagnostics and tried to reset Sfari, empty Cache as well as deleted all of my interent history. I am unable to use Time Machine because I never set it up. If someone knows how to help I would very much appreciate it!!

  • How do I get windows to connect to the internet on my iMac

    How do I get Windows 7 Home Premium to connect to my existing internet connection, on my iMac (Lion 10.7.3)?  The installation of the Windows 7 using Bootcamp went fine, up to the point of getting connected to the internet.  My iMac side of the partition connects to the internet just like it always did.

    You should ask this in the boot camp forum.
    You will probably get more help there.

  • Flash Player Plugin tries to access the internet upon arriving at account login pages

    Firefox 24.0
    Adobe Flash Player Plugin 11.8 r800
    Firewall software: ZoneAlarm
    My firewall is set to "Manual Control" and I get warnings for all Internet access attempts.
    Firefox is already granted outgoing access to the Internet, so I surf without additional warnings. So if I go to YouTube, I can watch the videos without receiving a prompt from my Firewall.
    However when I visit a secure account login page (where I have to enter my user ID and PW) the Firewall warns me that "Firefox is trying to use Adobe Flash Player 11.8 r800 to access the Internet".
    A prompt like this is provided by the Firewall when one program uses another to access the Internet. If for example I click on a link in MS Excel, the firewall will tell me that Excel is trying to use Firefox to access the Internet.
    What makes me concerned is:
    1) Firefox already has access privileges. It should not need to "use Flash to access the internet"
    2) This occurs when I'm about to use the keyboard to enter sensitive data into a secure page
    3) There are no [apparent] Flash elements on the login pages.
    Could I have acquired a malicious Flash software that tries to collect keystrokes and transmit them somewhere? Is there a way to show (in Firefox) which Flash file is working at any given time? (This would let me identify what's making the attempt to access)
    I am fully protected with Antivirus, Antispam, and breach prevention software. I also ran Norton Power Eraser to see if there was anything at Root level. Nothing found.
    Thank you, in advance for your feedback.

    Pages can use Flash even when there is no video displayed. For example some sites use Flash for menus, some for audio, and some may load Flash in their Google Analytics scripts so they know as much as possible about your system.
    In most cases, the Flash player will be trying to load a .SWF file, although that may not always be obvious. You could look for it in Firefox's Web Console.
    While viewing the page, press Ctrl+Shift+k, the reload the page. If there is a request for Flash media from the page, it should appear in the console (if the request is held up by your firewall, it nevertheless should appear as a pending request). There is a search/filter box where you could try entering .swf to reduce the time needed to scan through the list. Can you find the URL of the requested file? That might or might not make you comfortable about the request.

  • Ethernet? Does TC need to be connected to the internet?

    Not sure what the story is there. I just need TC as an external hard drive. Don't care about connecting it to the web. Do I have to connect it to my modem anyway via ethernet cable? Is that the only way my mac will see it wirelessly?
    Firewire is looking good right now, I've wasted 4 hours trying to set up TC and it's still not working. It did start backing up, then stopped half-way and never resumed. I think I will need to erase the TC disk and start again (if I find a way to do this). Looks like another piece of c@ap that just doesn't work.

    I have TC setup wirelessly on my network. I am using an Airport Extreme Base Station as my router and the TC for backup. The setup was straight forward as I did not use the manual method (tried it first and had problems). Once configured, everything worked well with the backups except that the TC keeps loosing its network connection. Only way to fix is to unplug/plug power cord.
    Hope Aple fixes this soon!!
