How to stop my animated Gif from looping?

So I'm making my Gif in flash. When I export my video as a Gif I select the option to only repeat once but the Gif just keeps looping. I also have transparent selected and dithering unselected, but neither seem to be working.

I had this same problem. I was exporting around 10 gif banners for a campaign, but the glitch only affected a few.
I wish I had a more airtight solution, but I eventually fixed the problem for each of the effected banners by "jiggling the keys" a bit- that is to say restarting Ps, deleting the animation and starting again, and even deleting the entire PSD and starting from scratch. Was a real nuisance and set me back a good couple hours, but still got those gifs to stop looping.
Using Mac and Adobe CC.

  • I am trying to stop my animated gif from looping but the 'once' function won't work

    HI,
    I have created a small animation for a web banner and I have selected it to only play once, but the export plays continuously. IS there another way of making sure it only plays once? I have got it ticked in the 'Save for Web' dialog box to only play once as well.
    Thanks! Jen

  • How to download an animated .gif from a web page

    how do i download to my mac an animated gif that is on a web page....when i want a picture or text or something like that i just ...apple shift 4 and "take a picture of it" ...but i want the animation..i have never had to do that on this mac.....a windoze person from the site(chat site) said just right click but my wireless mac mouse doesnt do that....i would appreciate any help.....i do know how to down load from a site that has downloadable .gifs...you just click the download sign they have and no problem....but this is just a random animated .gif from a web page ....i hope my ques is clear....thank you

    Drag and drop it from the webpage onto your desktop. Note that it won't remain "animated" while you're looking at the file's icon, but it should work if you build it into a new website.
    And you can right-click with a Mac mouse - you just have to set it up to do so in System Preferences. (Set the right side of the mouse to be a "secondary click".)

  • How do I stop a movie clip from looping

    I am using Action Script 3 and the 'stop()' function is not working to stop my movie clips from looping continuously.
    I have added the 'stop()' function to the last frame on the timeline of each movie clip.
    I originally built the .fla file in Flash CS6 using Action Script 2 where it was working with no problems (I have since upgraded and don't have access to CS6 anymore).
    I have all the separate movie clips positioned on Frame 1 of my main stage with the following script to start them playing:
    Cigarette_Reveal.play();
    KickTheHabit.play();
    BallMove.play();
    BallFlip.play();
    Offer.play();
    I want each of these movie clips to stop playing after one animation sequence is complete.
    Please help!

    Turn on strict mode in your publish settings. This will allow you to see the compiler errors that are preventing the actionscript in your fla from compiling correctly.

    How do I export an animated GIF from Premiere CC?
    I dont see an Animated codec option

    Hi Nick
    Believe me I STARTED there.
    I wouldnt post this message if I didnt try there first.
    I do not see Animated GIF as a codec option.
    Please walk me through the step by step process of how you got this.
    Because it is not as obvious as you're making it out to be.
    Further more perhaps a certain format has to be selected for Animated GIF options to appear?
    YES I AM ON CC version too. thanks!

  • Problem to display Animated Gif from HTML into JEditorPane

    I have a problem displaying animated gif that comes from URL (HTML) into JEditorPane.
    Let me show you the source I have:
    * @author Dobromir Gospodinov
    * @version 1.0
    * Date: Dec 6, 2002
    * Time: 6:47:53 PM
    package test.advertserver;
    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.io.IOException;
    public class Test {
         public static void main(String[] args) {
              JFrame frame = new JFrame();
              JEditorPane ed = new JEditorPane();
              try {
                   ed.setPage("http://localhost:8200/servlet?key=value");
              } catch (IOException e) {
                   e.printStackTrace();
              JPanel panel = new JPanel();
              panel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(500, 500));
              panel.add(ed);
              frame.getContentPane().add(panel);
              frame.pack();
              frame.setVisible(true);
    }Part of the returned from servlet HTML includes an img tag:
    <img src="/images/MyAnimatedGif.gif" alt="animated gif comment" width="480" height="50"  border="0">Let us assume that MyAnimatedGif.gif has 10 frames and gif is looped - when the 10th is dipslayed it has to display the 1st and so on.
    JEditorPane displays frames from 1 to 10 correctly but does not start from the first again. Instead JEditorPane displays a broken image.
    I locate where the problem arise:
    JEditorPane has an HTMLEditorKit that creates javax.swing.text.html.ImageView instance for every IMG tag.
    And here is the problem:
    ImageView has an ImageObserver necessary for the asynchronous image download. ImageObserver has the imageUpdate method. But this imageUpdate method is never called with ALLBITS flag raised up. Instead, after the last frame of MyAnimatedGif.gif is downloaded the imageUpdate method is called with flag ERROR raised up. Obviously this is a bug of Sun's implementation. Finaly the flag ALLBITS has to be received for normal end of image observing. But ALLBITS flag does not come.
    So, can anybody help me how to load an animated gif within JEditorPane completely.
    Thank You in advance,
    Dobromir Gospodinov
    P.S. If somebody of you wants to debbug what happens within ImageView will have to implement it (and related classes too, because of the limited package visability) borrowing the source from Sun's ImageView.

    I'm also having this problem with java 1.4.1 I discovered that some animated gifs work fine, while others stop animating. Running with java 1.3.1 fixed the problem. I'm going to report this as a bug

  • How to create an animated gif with CS4?

    Trying to create an animated gif from 8 images using FW CS4.  Can't find "how to" via online FW help.  Have done it before with version 8 -- followed the in-house Help db but CS4 doesn't have in-house db.  I found a tutorial: http://www.entheosweb.com/website_design/animated_gifs.asp, but talks about opening Frames panel (Windows > Frames) and  I can't even find the Frames panel in CS4!
    Just trying to create simple animated gif as temporary portfolio.  Would also like to click on a different link for each image as it rotates if that's possible but main thing is just to create the gif.
    Thanks so much in advance!

    For the first part of your question
    File > Open, then at the bottom of the dialog Tick the open to Open As Animation.
    Then browse/select multiple images, then Open.
    This will automatically add each image to a State (Window > State, previously called Frames).
    Then adjust the Frame Rate of each State. The default is 7th/100 (a sec). You should see the number 7 to the right of each State. Double click to adjust as desired. 100 = 1 second, 200 = 2 seconds and so on.
    Once the animation is configured, go File > Save As > Animated Gif.

  • How to stop the tab bar from automatically hiding itself?

    ive only found how to stop the address bar from disappearing and everyone with the tab problem seems to have posted this over a week ago and still hasnt been fixed yet if noone has a fix im out and done with firefox they can suck a fat one
    why add this feature! i can understand the address bar but not the tabs all you have to do to hide it was push the tab button again and its gone was that so fucking hard that you had ruin a perfectly fine browser

    Hello,
    In Firefox 23, as part of an effort to simplify the Firefox options set and facilitate future improvements to Firefox, the option to hide the tab bar was removed.
    Fortunately, this can easily be resolved if you desire the keep tabs hidden. You can install "[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/hide-tab-bar-with-one-tab/ Hide tab bar with one tab]", an extension hosted on Mozilla's add-ons site, which will restore the ability to hide the tab bar.
    Thank you and I hope this helps!

  • How to stop the option key from changing tools when trying to subtract from a selection?

    How to stop the option key from changing my tools when I am trying to subtract from a selection?
    I'm running CS3 on Mac OS Leopard, and the automatic tool switching slows me down, but even preferences doesn't show a way to turn this off.
    Thanks for your help.

    With any marquee tool, JUST holding down the option key should not switch tools. You need to explain the problem much more carefully, It's completely impossible to tell from your description whats going wrong.
    automatic tool switching
    The only preference related to this, is to do with the SHIFT KEY - "use Shift key for tool switch".

  • Can you make an animated gif from edge animate?

    Can you make an animated gif from edge animate?

    not natively. edge exports html and javascript files, not video files, or frames.
    however, you could use a third-party program that has a video screenshot function and make one that way.

    Anyone know how to stop the "activate" box from blocking usage of a perfectly legal copy of Ilisten? I want to help my dyslexic grandson and this box, including the activation code, keeps popping up, keeping me from using the software. I activated the program and did a few profile building sessions, now it pops up each time I start the program, blocking me from using it. Help sure would be appreciated.
    Jay

    I looked at your post this morning and did not know enough to respond, other than to find out that links to iListen now go to newer, renamed software. Considering it's been nine hours with no response, I'm suspecting few people here have experience with that software. You could contact the current copmany that used to sell that package and see if they have any archived support info.
    BTW: please check you entry for "Mac OS" in your profile. It says iOS, which cannot run on an iMac. iOS is the system for phone and iPads but can't run on Mac computers. Do "About this Mac" from the Apple menu and see what it says about the OS version. Should look like this:
    If the "Processor" line says "Intel," you have a newer Mac than the old modles this forum covers; Intel iMac have their very own forum here:

  • How to stop Adobe Flash plugin from repeatedly crashing Firefox?

    How to stop Adobe Flash plugin from repeatedly crashing Firefox?

    yeah, having the same problem.
    Hulu is working on my internet explorer 8, tho... Interesting thing is that it detected I didn't have the 10.1 version of adobe flash player even though I just downloaded that on firefox. So MAYBE the problem is between firefox and adobe. Just a guess

    Anyone any advice on how to stop my mail "activity" from continuously caching? is this a problem? I have had inbox issues recently that are not resolved yet but I am not sure if they are related.

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is corrupt and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.
