How to Edit a flash file

Hi all,
I have a flash file, which I took from my website and want to
modify some of the contents and links in the flash file. I
installed "Macromedia Flash 8" and open the flash file; after
opening all I can see in the menu bar of my flash is "File, View,
Debug and Control" and could not find any control or tool to edit
the file and surprisingly rest of the other macromedia toolbar
icons are disabled. I need to know from where to start - How to
modify my flash file.
Your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
AP

I do not know what files you have, 'fraid I cannot answer
this
My Friend
I think you need to check out some of the books, online
tutorials, course etc pertaining to Flash. Build up your knowledge
a little at a time and you will surprise yourself at what you can
achieve, you would also probaby build your own web apps and not
rely on templates.
There are many good folk on here that would help you with
your projects - go out and explore it - it's exciting - good luck

Editing a Flash file

Hello, Guys
I am a new comer when it comes to Flash. I paid for and
downloaded the Tab Menu by AdrianTNT.com for use on my website
being developed. I know how to edit the XML file to change colors
and the size of the menu. The menu seems to work fine but I want to
edit the file and create a new SWF file with a different font size
and shape of navigation bar. I have Flash 8 but I need some
tutorial type information so that I can make those changes to the
menu.
Please help me out of this jam.
With great thanks,
skyydog

It looks like adriantnt is selling a template that can take
variables via php. you're probably purchasing a swf, not an fla.
You cannot "edit" a swf file. Well, there are ways, but I'm sure
it's a breach of your agreemnet with adriantnt.

How to edit the nbu file when the mobile device is...

How to edit the nbu file when the mobile device is not connected?
That software that is available in the nokia site “nokia phone browser” is not useful! Why?
It is not working unless the mobile device is connected (attached)
It is quite slow when editing the contacts! (attached)
Then why the nokia doesn’t offer a simple software that enable us to edit and explore the content of our nbu files?
Is there some workaround in this regard?
Is there some software the can edit the nbu files?
Thank you for the help,
Best

How to edit move rename files in iTunes

how to edit move rename files in itunes

I don't like iTunes.
I don't want iTunes to keep the physical location of my files because they can be on a SD card, or an USB drive and i don't want iTunes to stop me from playing a song because it cannot find it anymore.
So i would like to use physical files just to upload to iTunes Match and then delete the link to the physical file.
If needed, iTunes Match will download the file.
The problem is just that i would like to delete all references to physical files to make iTunes Match download the file only when needed and stop using the first version i had given to it
maybe i could have a Apple Script to check if there is a physical file referenced and if so delete it to have only the Cloud version

How to edit a shared file on my Mac?

Hi,
Is it possible to edit a shared file on my Mac?
I know it is possible on the web, using Numbers/Pages/Keynote for iCloud Beta. But I was wondering if it is also possible to download and edit the file.
I think it is also important that the file automatically updates himself when edited on the Mac, so the other user could see my changes.
So I don't have to download the file --> edit it --> upload the file.
Hopefully there is a solution for this problem, otherwise I'm hoping this will come in the near-future!
Kind regards,
Berend

How do I use a flash drive on my mac
Since most flash drives are formatted for PC's rather than Macs, if you plan to use it only with a Mac, when it's plugged in, you can click on it in Disk Utility and partition it GUID and Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Note that if you've already got files stored on it, partitioning it will erase them.

How to edit a "locked" file

Hey all,
I recently edited a resume on a friends Mac computer and sent a copy to myself to my email. When I received the file, it was locked. Might be a pretty simple question, but how do i unlock the file and continue to edit the copy on my computer? I'm using Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3 at the moment if that makes a difference. Thanks in advance.

Select it in the Finder, choose Get Info from the File menu, and uncheck the Locked checkbox.

How to edit a jar file ?

Using JDeveloper 11.1.1.0 and it will not allow me to edit a jar file.
Steps
File -> Open and select a jar file
Double Click on MANIFEST.MF
The status bar displays "Read Only" and "Windows: CR/LF Editing"
All versioning has been turned off.
How do I get out of "Read Only" mode and be able to edit anything in the file ?????
Thank you

Come on, you can't be seriously try to edit a class file in side a jar.
One of the reasons they are in a jar is that users don't fiddle around with them. If you have to manipulate the manifest you can do so in the deployment descriptor of the application in JDEV.
If you are looking for something special in the jar there are a couple of explorer plug ins which allow you to do so (at your own risk).

How to edit a SWF file

Hello,
I'm a newbie so please try to help me with a simple solution.
I have a flash banner that is designed to run animation
continuously, I need it to stop running after 15 seconds. What's
the easiest way to do so?
This is very important for me so I'd appreciate a swift
reply.
Thanks.

You consider everybody, who wishes to edit SWF and has no
FLA, as a stealers. You're not right
I hope you aren't implying that statement coming from me. I
said nothing to that effect. Why would you even be reading a post 2
months old? I'm sure the answer was either found or the post is no
longer relative.
quote:
Many of such people are pretty legal owners of the Flash
contents, they want to modify.
Legal or not, if an advertiser requested a swf file to stop
after so many seconds, why not either provide someone the flash
file in order to be able to do it, or have the originator do it
themselves? I am/was not questioning the legality of this
alteration, but was questioning the fact of why the flash file was
not provided to pascalinam and/or why he was attempting to alter
something that could easily be done by the originator.

How to edit an XML file?

Guys, I have a podcast in iTunes, I want to start to promote it. In order to do this, I think I will have to put tags in the XML file for different sites and I would like to know how to edit this. Does anyone have any good places for me to check out how to do this?
Thanks!

Vinnie, thanks for getting back to me on this, I am pulling my hair out!
What FAQ are you speaking of? The one in iTunes or someplace on this board?
By claim, what I mean is this. Lets say I try to add my podcast to Podcast Alley's directory. If I copy and paste my RSS feed in there, it says that it needs me to add their "tag" or whatever in my RSS so they know it is my podcast. They need me to add this line in the XML file I think to "claim" my podcast so it will show up in their directory. This seems to be a common thing with other sites as they give me some XML code to add to my RSS also.
Make sense at all?

How to make exported Flash files as small as possible?

I am producing some Web Presenter videos, and they are going to be embedded onto a website.
This is my current workflow:
.Import video and then Key it in Adobe Ultra
.Import keyed footage into After Effects to allow me to set pixel dimensions for composition
.Render as flash file
Currently, I am rendering them as .Flv (web small) in the settings, but the files are coming out at 8-12mb, and the video is only 60 seconds long. I have seen some guys get flash videos of this length down to 3mb.
My question, am I rendering under the most sensible settings, or is there something better I should be doing? I need to keep the files small, but without losing much quality.
Here is an example of a recent Web Presenter I did: http://www.ukpostbox.com
I did the filming and presentation, and a friend (who has since died) did the editing. It will give you an example of the effect I'm looking for. Also, is the 'start' button something I can add myself, or is that normally done by the web designers at the clients end?
You might need to explain everything in simple terms to me as I am very new to After Effects, and this type of editing system.
Thanks,
James.

You may also have to edit the export settings.
When you export to flv with the preconfiguration "web small" you shall dig in it and adjust the data rate (lower it until you get the quality you want).
Sadly, encoding isn't a skill that have a long curve of learning, and relying on pressets is just the first step (and encoding much depends on what is in the frame, so it's a science by itself as soon as you want more control on your outputs). Also, AE is a compositing system, not an encoding software, so if you have the Production Premium, Master Coolection or Premiere, you should definitly want to export your project from the Adobe Media Encoder.
One of the most important step in downsizing the size of your video while keeping quality is to do "dual pass" encoding, and AE can't do that.
The great thing is that you can import an AE composition right inside AME, so you don't need to do a temp encoding.

Don't know how to play a flash file

I downloaded a .FLV file, but Windows isn't associating that file with Flash. When I click it I get asked which file to open it with. I checked and I have Flash 10.x on my system. I don't know where on my system flash is located. I looked in the C:\Program Files\Adobe directory but didn't find anything there. How do I associate the file to Flash so I can play it?

Flash Player is a web player (browser plugin), not a standalone media player. You can use Adobe Media Player to play Flash files.

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.
