  • How to prevent people asking how to prevent "click to activate and use this control"

    When I visit the fourms, I keep seeing these questions about
    how to disable
    "click to activate and use this control". Its really annoying
    and
    disrupting my web experience. I do know this really this is a
    blatant
    attack on Adobe and Flash by Microsoft and is obviously
    related to the Adobe
    takeover of Macromedia, and probably also related to the fact
    that it is now
    impossible for anyone to install Flash Player (which Adobe is
    ignoring
    because their support is so useless since the takeover). Is
    there something
    I can do to prevent these questions being posted? I've
    searched all the
    forums and cannot find any information. Surely someone else
    has had this
    problem.

  • HTML View - Click to activate and use this control

    Hi, I have an HTML View in my VC App.  When the HTML View is presented it has to be clicked on. There is also a tool tip that states "Click to activate and use this control".   I didn't see any mention of this in the forums. 
    Is there any way to get rid of this? 
    Thanks,
    Ken Murray

    Hi Kenneth,
    maybe you had this issue not before and then you have patched your windows system. This issue comes with a microsoft patch last year I think it was october or november.
    Here on SDN is a how-to available which explains how you can remove this patch, but I think it's not recommend to remove security patches.

  • Hoe do i avoid "click to activate and use this control" message?

    how avoid th problem of getting the message below...when
    there is a flash movie in my HTML file?
    "click to activate and use this control"

    Oh god .. here we go again .. Obviously someone has been
    living under a rock
    or on a deserted island for a few months :)
    This is due to Microsoft IE changes required to avoid
    infringing the
    (stupid) EOLAS patent. It applies to all Active-X control
    that can interact
    with the user.
    If you are viewing a web site, you cannot really do anything
    to fix it,
    except complain to the web master
    Here is a link to find information on how to fix your website
    to cope with
    the Active-X active content changes:

  • "Click to activate and use this control" in IE

    When using Flash forms, IE 7 surrounds them with a box and
    prompts users to "click ot activate and use this control." Is this
    the old Flash problem with using object or embed tags without
    javascript to embed movies? Is there a way to fix how ColdFusion
    embeds Flash forms so people don't have to click on them before
    they can use them? Maybe it's fixed in CF 8?
    I found the answer here:
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=22&threadid=1141999&STA RTPAGE=2&FTVAR_FORUMVIEWTMP=Linear.
    Not sure why this comes up in Google but I couldn't find it through
    the Adobe site, this forum system really sucks i.e. slow searches
    to the point of being useless.

    What version of CF are you using? This was fixed with the CF
    MX 7.02 patch

  • HTM says: "Click to activate and use this Control"?

    When I open my published Captivate movie in Internet Explorer
    (clicking on the htm file), my cursor becomes the shape of a hand,
    and there is small a mouseover that says "Click to activate and use
    this Control". I am using Flash 9. I must click 1x to activiate
    something, then my Captivate buttons work just fine.
    What is the control I'm activating? Can I turn off this
    prompt in Security settings? This will drive end users bonkers.
    I don't get this issue in Firefox.

    Hi pcorad
    This has been an issue since Microsoft was forced to alter
    the way Internet Explorer handles content such as Flash. To work
    past it, you can use JavaScript. (This is the reason for the
    existence of the additional standard.js file we see in Captivate 2)
    You might wish to search the forums for the phrase "click to
    activate" and you should find many results that explain things in
    more detail.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Dreamweaver Site Publish_CLICK TO ACTIVATE AND USE THIS CONTROL ERROR WHEN PUBLISHING

    Hi all, recently after publishing and testing my site I
    noticed where my flash files are located boxes around the files
    with a "CLICK TO ACTIVIATE AND USE THIS CONTROL" pop up thing
    occur, when I hover over the flash parts. Can you please tell me
    why this occurs and how to remove it? It works fine on safari but
    using internet explorer, there seems to be a problem.
    hope u can help

    It's IE-only behaviour as a result of changes Microsoft made
    earlier this
    year to their browser, regarding how Active Content (Flash,
    Quicktime etc)
    is handled, after losing a high profile court case.

  • Press SPACEBAR or ENTER to activate and usee this control

    Hi,
    Just started using Flash 8 and i seem to be getting a border
    with the following message around any Flash content i use in the
    site, message: 'Press SPACEBAR or ENTER to activate and use this
    control'
    I never had this with MX2004, any ideas anyone, pretty
    annoying on an entire flash site.
    Appreciate any help offered,
    Pat

    just search the forums - been the "hot topic" for a few weeks
    - lengthy discussions been going on
    everyday as we are all dealing with this (microsoft/Eolas
    patent issue). Try searching google for
    "active content" - tons of information in the form of
    announcements, blogs, articles, etc...all over
    the web.
    As a developer there are various methods using js to activate
    content automatically - if you are
    just a web surfer you cant do anything.
    hope this helps.

  • Content Pane: Help getting rid of "Click to activate this control"

    I know this came up a long time ago when IE
    changed--Flash/swf content needs to be clicked to be activated
    first. I thought Robohelp 6 would address it, but not.
    The challenge: Cannot use the fixes publised because the html
    pages created by Robohelp, like the Content pane, are generated
    with Javascript. Ironically posted solutions use Javascript to
    change the Embed, object, etc. tags! And I don't know Javascript!
    The entire Content pane needs to be clicked first so you can
    click an item in the contents. Its html file seems to be
    wf_master.htm and when you look at the code, the tags are fed in
    like this:
    // Build tag to document.write
    strObject = "<OBJECT
    classid='clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000' codebase='
    http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0'";
    strObject += "WIDTH='100%' HEIGHT='100%' id='masterSWF'
    ALIGN='' VIEWASTEXT>";
    strObject += "<PARAM NAME='movie'
    VALUE='wf_master.swf'>";
    strObject += "<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>";
    strObject += "<PARAM NAME='menu' value='false'>";
    // FlashVars for Object tag:
    strObject += "<PARAM NAME=FlashVars VALUE='" +
    strFlashVars + "'>";
    strObject += "<EMBED src='wf_master.swf' quality=high
    WIDTH='100%' menu='false' HEIGHT='100%' NAME='masterSWF'
    swliveconnect=true ALIGN='' ";
    // FlashVars for Embed tag:
    strObject += "FlashVars='" + strFlashVars + "' ";
    strObject += "TYPE='application/x-shockwave-flash'
    PLUGINSPAGE='
    http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer'>";
    strObject += "</EMBED>";
    strObject += "</OBJECT>";
    Adobe's solutions 1 or 2
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/activecontent/
    assume you have regular html files.
    *Question/request:
    1) Has/can someone come up with a way or code (or function?)
    that can be added somewhere centrally (in a key file) so when
    robohelp renders the above html tags are replaced therefore
    eliminating the need of clicking the swf content to activate it?
    I don't know how Robohelp renders to help me find the file
    where a change like this can be made.
    2) Or can the output Javascript file be modified?
    Robohelp seems to ride on Javascript and the 'solutions' are
    in Javascript. I can't believe RObohelp developers have not
    addressed this with the Robohelp 6.
    I upgraded to Robohelp 6, use Robohelp HTML, publish using
    FlashHelp, and my users use IE,

    just search forum - this has been discussed almost everyday
    since the issue surfaced a few
    weeks/months ago - in fact somebody actually posted a link to
    an article explaining it 11 minutes
    before you posted your question
    Subject: IE Changes Due: What you can Expect.
    It's not a flash issue - it is an Eolas/Microsoft issue. Also
    google around - tons of articles on
    news sites about this and also on adobe and macromedia that
    explains it all.

  • Can anyone tell me how to get rid of Cookies in Safari and Firefox?

  • Mozila Firefox is always asking me to click to activate and use plug-ins like Adobe Reader, Flash, Youtube videos and other plug-ins which it never did before.

    I am using Mozilla Firefox and it is now bugging me. After updating it, it is now asking me to always click to activate and use plug-ins like Adobe Reader, Flash, Youtube videosand other plug-ins. I click on activiate all plug-ins but it still asks me to do it each time that I try to use Flash, Adobe Reader, watch a You Tube Video or anything. Why won't Mozilla Firefox automatically actaivate the plug-ins like it used to do. I tried to follow directions on our website for fixing this but it did not work. I am running
    Windows XP. Please let me know how to fix this. Thank you.

    In the past, to protect you from [https://support.mozilla.org/kb/use-plugins-play-audio-video-games plugins] that have stability or security issues, Firefox could only turn off the problematic plugin. Now Firefox can prevent the plugin from running automatically (which prevents many issues) and then let you choose to run or update the plugin. See [[Why do I have to click to activate plugins?]] for more info.
    If you'd like to Disable Firefox's Click-to-Play feature,
    # Type ''about:config'' in the address bar and press Enter.
    # Press the big button to bypass the warning.
    # In the search box, paste ''plugins.click_to_play''
    # In the search results, double-click ''plugins.click_to_play'' to set its value to '''false'''

    I would like to buy my boyfriend the iphone 5. He has an upgrade - but can I purchase it for Christmas now and get money back when he activates and uses his upgrade?

    Or purchase an Apple Gift Card for him to use to get a phone at Apple after Christmas. He gets the card as the Christmas gift and can go get the phone himself. It would cost you the same amount of money.
