How to deploy/open a swf file?

Hi,
I have developed a SWF application using FlashBuilder 4. I can run it from FlashBuilder 4 and the SWF file runs with adl.exe.
However, I want to open/deploy this swf file from another computer that does not have FlashBuilder installed.
How can I do this?
Thanks,
Pradeep.

If the SWF uses AIR APIs, then you must package it as an AIR file and install it on the other machine (which must have AIR installed). Use the Export command in Flash Builder. (Since it seems that you developed the application as an AIR project, this is most likely what you should do, but I can't be sure since you are calling it a SWF application rather than an AIR application.)
If the SWF does not use any AIR-specific APIs, then you could also install the standalone Flash Player on the other machine and then just double-click the SWF to launch it. You could also make the SWF into an executable file using the standalone Flash Player, in which case the other computer does not need the standalone Flash Player installed. You can get the standalone Flash Player from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html

  • 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..

    Thanks
    PS: I'm french, so please could you explain me in cool english!

    If you can convert a .swf file to PDF, you would be able to open it in iBooks.
    Apparently those converters do exist.
    Google or similar are your friends.
    Was that English cool enough for you?

    well you can publish the the other FLA, which would give you
    an HTML file, upload that and the SWF then link to the SWFs' HTML
    page.

  • Flash CS6 cant open play SWF files without importing and destroying them, how can I get around this?

    Flash CS6 can't open play SWF files without importing and destroying them, how can I get around this?
    I'm just trying to preview an swf file in flash like I have with all previous versions.

    What if my SWF loads external content from an online server?
    Not only does the current flash player prohibit such activity, it doesn't even pop open an error anymore saying there was an error connecting to an online source.
    Normally, I would simply drag the SWF into Flash and all connections would go through.  I could see traces, errors, and experience no issues.
    Now I can't even do that.  So what then?  You have crippled a fundamental use of the program, but THANK GOD we have that deco brush that nobody asked for.
    And for the record, the nature of my work benefits from not necessarily allowing the Flash Player to connect to online content.  The error it pops up?  That's simply another method of error checking that I require.  Updating the Flash Player options is not an option.
    Why would you even remove this key feature from Flash anyways?  It's been there for years ... has the ratio of people importing SWFs (a rather useless gesture in an increasing OOP world) really outweighed the people using Flash as a testing environment that much?

  • When i try to open a .swf file, it goes to adobe device central as default

    when i try to open a .swf file, it goes to adobe device central as default.  i can't seem to open it in adobe flash????

    You likely need to change the default application(s) assigned for opening files to point to the new ones.  HOw you do that depends on which operating system you have. If you search Google you should be able to find out how to change the default programs for different files.

  • Firefox 3.6 when I open a SWF file, a wrong mouse click, it show a recursive open window until the PC resource is used up or the system hang up, I try to reinstall firefox but not solved.

    Windows XP SP3, flash player 10.2, Shockwave 11.5.9.240 , when I open a SWF file with firefox 3.6.15, it shows some options to choose action and I made a wrong click. The firefox nightmare is a "open recursive windows" until the system hang. When I use Internet Explorer 8 to open it, it is fine, Try to uninstall firefox and reinstall it, but in vain, how can I restore it?

    You don't have the Shockwave Flash Player installed for Firefox. You may have the ActiveX version installed for IE, but Firefox needs the Plugin version. And Shockwave 11.5.9.240 that is installed for Firefox isn't the same thing.
    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    ''Or maybe get the previous '''r102''' version from here. IMO, there's problems with the latest version of Flash.'' <br />
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
    * On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). <br />
    See this: <br />

  • How can I open the windows file directory in "WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED" trigger

    Dear All,
    How can I open the windows file directory in “WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED” trigger?

    Blessan Joseph,
    The solution is dependent on your Forms version and if your applications is traditional Client/Server (CS) (Forms 6i and lower) or web deployed (Forms 6i and higher). For CS, you would use the Get_File_Name() built-in as Faa demonstrated. For Web, you will need to use the WebUtil library function Client_Get_File_Name() as Sarah (OGIR) demonstrated. Both of these functions will return the full path to a file. Note: WebUtil is an external library so it requires you to perform some configuration on your developer client as well as on the Application Server. WebUtil is included with Forms 9i and higher, but you must download it for Forms 6i.
    My requirement is user should able to select windows directory for the output.Do you really need to allow the user to write to a file in the Windows directory? This is very dangerous and you should not allow users or programs to write to the Windows directory. Users should only be able to write files to "User" directories (\My Documents\<Directory name>).

    If someone's response is helpful or correct, please mark it accordingly.

  • How can I open a cc2014 file in my cs6 version of Indesign ?

    How can I open a cc2014 file in my cs6 version of Indesign ?
    I have several files that has been saved in a cc2014 version and I can't open them in my CS6 version of Indesign.
    I don t have access to anyone who have the cc 2014 version to convert the file.
    How can I do it from my cs6 version?
    THANKS!

    You can't do it from CS6.
    You have to export to IDML from InDesign CC2014 (or whatever the version it was created in) and then open the IDML in the earlier versoin of InDesign.
    All explained in the FAQ on the main forum page.

    You want Photoshop or Elements and use the ACR plugin. Lightroom is the wrong application for you; square peg in a round hole and all that.

  • I have a new IMAC with a Maverick platform (I can update to Yosemite). I did all graphics on a G5 Power PC (very old), in Freehand (very old)... How can I open old Freehand files on this new Mac? Can I still open and work in Freehand on this new Mac?

    Can I still open and work in Freehand on this new Mac?

    Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
    Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
    After this, do an update from the App Store.
    Thats all there is to it.
    For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
    Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
    There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.

  • How do I open a .m4a file from Mail into Music app?

    How do I open a .m4a file from Mail into Music app?
    I mixed down a song from my band's latest session and saved it as a .m4a file (Apple AAC Audio format) and I e-mailed it to myself. Then on my phone I opened the e-mail message in Mail and held a long-press down on the attached .m4a file. But I do not see the option to open it up into the Music app. It only gives me the options of iMovie, WeChat, and USB Disk. Why would I want to open it up in those? It's a song. It should open up into the Music app so I can play it. What the heck?
    Please don't tell me that I have to use iTunes to do this and sync my phone to my computer, because I *do not* want to add these songs to my iTunes library. They are *practice session tracks* that I want to listen to then delete later when we have new versions.
    If there is no way to open them into the Music app, then is there a music player app I can get somewhere that will let me simply save audio files from Mail into it, and use it as a player for those songs? That's all I want to do.
    The only reasonable workaround I have found so far is to save them as .mp4 audio files, which the iPhone thinks are movies, so it lets me save them into the camera roll as Videos.
    Voice Memos would be acceptable as a place for them to be able to open into as well, but of course that's also not on the options list. Sigh.

    Why is that such an issue for you?
    Why do people insist on replying to threads without even reading the original post? I explained it there already!
    I don't have to use iTunes to save an image from Mail into my camera roll, or to save a PDF from Mail into iBooks. Why should I have to use iTunes to save a music file into Music app?
    But I'll repeat it since evidently you can't be asked to read the original posts before spamming a thread with questions that have already been answered. I *do not* want to add these songs to my iTunes library.
    My iTunes library is a sacred temple into which I only allow to enter the very best and highest-fidelity musical recordings of all time. I refuse to sully and soil my iTunes library with crappy practice mixdowns from my band, etc.
    Want to know why? Because I like to be able to hit "shuffle all" on my iTunes library and know that something that will improve my existence will emanate forth from this amazing device that I have invested thousands of dollars into (yes, I count my cell phone plan amongst the expenses).
    I shall not have the crappy burner mixdown tracks from my band's practice sessions come up every five songs (we generate TONS of these... literally hundreds... and they are all high-bitrate .m4a tracks in the 10-15 MB range). I let iTunes keep my music folder organized on my computer. It makes copies of everything being placed into it, and I don't want 159 GB of copies of burner tracks hiding like roaches throughout my temple. We don't name these files anything sensible (in fact the guy who mixes them down intentionally gives them random weird names) and they lack metadata. So there's no easy way to delete them back out of iTunes once they're in there. It's a huge pain; I used to do it, but I swore it off years ago and *I'm never going back!*
    The REAL question is, why does Apple force me to have to use iTunes—the most convoluted, kludgy piece of bloatware ever to issue forth from Cupertino—to do something as simple as adding an MP3 from Mail into the Music app on my phone? Why can't there be something simple—something equivalent to the Camera Roll inside the Music app, not only for the files I want to save from Mail, but also for my Garage Band exports, not to mention all the exports from all the various synthesizer, drum machine, and recording apps I use on a daily basis in iOS?
    It would be awfully nice to be able to play the songs I've recorded right in the Music app without having to go through the rigamarole of adding those files to my iTunes library, tagging them with metadata, syncing, etc. etc. yadda yadda yadda—just to delete them again as soon as I've synced so they don't pollute my computer's iTunes library!
    I bought Apple for ease of use, not so I would be forced to jump through a million hoops just do to something that ought to take one tap to accomplish!  That's ridiculous!
