KeyboardEvent Bug in Flash Player Debugger (Safari/WebKit OSX 10.6.8)

Hi!
There is a bug with the debugger :-)
I ran into the following bug.
After doing a fair amount of testing I am able reproduce the problem at will, so here it is:
The Debug version of the Flash Player used for development does not detect keyboard inputs from Safari (tested with Version 5.1 (6534.50)) or WebKit (tested Version 5.1 (6534.50, r92131)) on OSX 10.6.8
All other browsers detect KeyboardEvents attached to the stage without any issue except for Safari/Webkit that just ignore all KeyboardEvents.
Of course the issue is limited to the debug version of the Falsh Player so not too big of an issue but I was wondering if Adobe is planning on fixing that issue?
Thanks, L.

It would be better if you filed a bug report at http://bugs.adobe.com/flashplayer/ instead of reporting it in the user forum.
To give it its due attention, send a PM to Chris Campbell with a link to the bug report, as well as this topic.

Flash Player debugger 10.2 crashing + accent problem

Hi,
I have a lots of problem with flash player debugger since the update 10.2
My browsers crashes often when there is an AS3 error. I delete many times and reinstall FP debugger nothing change.
I have a mac laptop with OS X Snow Leopard, using Safari, Opera and Firefox... all crashing (not Chrome, I don't use the debugger with it, so it works great).
I try on my Windows Xp same problem too with Firefox and the debugger version.
On mac, when the player crashes, I don't see any error before that whereas on Windows I can see the error, and choosing Continue or Cancel all have some randomly result... but it crashes.
Here is a typical link where my browsers crashes when you play the video : http://www.jeuxvideo.fr/video/warpzone/video-warpzone-saison-2-10-fox-news-qui-deconne-et- de-jolies-filles-qui-bastonnent-373890.html
It doesn't crash with FP without the debugger.
May you have any idea ?
P.S. : I take advantage of this post to say that into the French traduction, there are problems with accent, they are not display !
"é", "à", "è", are change by a pipe : |
In 10.1 there wasn't any problem.
Best Regards,
Aymeric

I am not sure if this is the best place to ask; your questions are more like a developer's problem, so maybe the AS3 / Flash / Flex forums may be better.
Also, regarding the accented characters, you may try the French language forums - there may be users that have encountered the same problem.
If you think it is a bug in the software, you can report them at http://bugs.adobe.com/

Is this a bug in Flash Player or Flex?

Compile and run this code (it is generated when you select New MXML Application) with FlashBuilder4.5:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" minWidth="955" minHeight="600">
<fx:Declarations>

</fx:Declarations>
</s:Application>
If you are using IE, you will see a blue player control panel. But there should be nothing displayed because there is no
visual components in the code above.
If you are using FireFox, there is nothing displayed.
Same behaves for mx:Application.
I think it is a bug with Flash Player or Flex. How can Flex behave differently with different browsers?

This is what I see in IE 9.0.8112.16421, but not in FF.

Is this a bug whith Flash Player 9?

Hi everybody!

This is what I see in IE 9.0.8112.16421, but not in FF.

How to automate Flash Player Debugger installs

Hello,
Everytime we push the latest version of Flash Player, Flash Player Debugger stops working and requires to upgrade. I am working on making this upgrade automated along with our Flash deployments.
I tested installing Flash Player Debugger on a test PC, I don't see it listed inAdd/Remove programs wizard. When I go to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ page, it reports I have the Flash player but when I go to http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/192/tn_19245.html page, it says I have the Content Debugger ActiveX Player. It's unclear if both of these versions would co-exist.
Importantly, I wanted to know what all the Adobe packages/suits that get the Adobe Flash Player Debugger version bundled in. From http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/192/tn_19245.html it seems Flex distribution will have Adobe Flash Player Debugger version bundled.

Hi,
Since Microsoft embeds Flash Player in Internet Explorer on Wndows 8.x/10, the standalone uninstaller does not work to remove the ActiveX control on Windows 8.x/10 (it does uninstall the NPAPI and PPAPI plugins.) Instructions for uninstalling the debugger on Windows 8.x are posted at Adobe Flash Player - Downloads which is the same page that contains the links for the Windows 8.x debugger installers. Instructions for uninstalling are directly below the links for the debuggers.
Since Microsoft embeds Flash Player on Windows 8.x/10 they lock the files to prevent users from uninstalling it as it is an integrated component of IE. Since you have manually unregistered ActiveX components you may have performed irreparable damage to the file system, which is beyond the scope of this Flash Player installer forums. This could by why you're getting the message that the update does not apply to you, however, that's difficult to ascertain at this point. I'd start with running Windows Update and see if it includes an update for "Update for Internet Explorer Flash Player for Windows 8.x". If it's not there you may need to install other updates before the "Update for Internet Explorer Flash Player for Windows 8.x" update shows up. If it doesn't show up at all you'll need to contact Microsoft for their assistance.

Problems installing or running Adobe Flash Player for safari

problems installing or running Adobe® Flash® Player for safari when trying to install Adobe Flash Player.pkg it asks to quit Dash Board client then brings up Exclamation mark up and quits install ??????

Adobe Flash is pretty much a 32-bit application. You may be able to fix the problem by going into your Applications folder, and right-clicking on Safari. There is a check box that will allow you to run Safari in 32-bit mode. Try that and see if Flash works in Safari.
I have retired my iMac, and have an HP now, but a friend helped me with the same problem when I upgraded to Snow Leopard. My PC seems to have just one 64-bit browser, that being Internet Explorer. I am using IE9 Beta in 64-bit, and the Beta for Flash "Square" in 64-bit seems to work fine. See link below:

Properly updating Flash CS5.5 to use the lastest Flash Player/Debugger

Hey all,
I'm just about to uninstall and reinstall at this point but I'm getting my install all screwed up trying to update Flash Pro CS5.5 to use Flash Player 11. I had it fine using the MXP provided in this adobe blog. Though that's 11.0 not 11.1. It did work however.
I downloaded the latest Flash Player / Debugger .exe and the latest SWC for 11.1 and now Stage3D is no longer being seen. Clearly I screwed something up. I uninstalled and reinstalled the MXP after deleting the FP11 XML and FP11 directory but it's not working anymore.
Is there a clear cut simple way to explain how to overlay the latest Flash Player for FPCS5.5?
I used the AIR overlay instructions for 2.6 - 3.1 and it worked every time. Now I just need Flash Player overlay instructions.
I'm very interested to start trying to Starling framework with Stage3D. I select FP11 to export and it tells me it can't find Stage3D. D'oh!
Thanks for tips!

Just an update. Upon printing flash.system.Capabilities.version I can see for CTRL+ENTER it's using version WIN 10,2,153,2. When I do a debug test it's using version WIN 11,1,102,55. That clearly explains why Stage3D is only available in debug testing.
I did overlay release and debug .exes in the Flash CS5.5 Player folder. Does anyone know of another place I might need to overwrite the flash player or which .exe CTRL+ENTER actually launches?

Problem updating Adobe Flash Player with Safari

Hello!
I'm trying to update Adobe Flash Player using Safari on a Macbook Pro with OS X 10.10.1 but every time I download the update the file looks like this:
and when I try to start the installation this window appears:
I tried several different download links but non of them worked. I also uninstalled the Adobe Flash Player and tried to reinstall it but then I have the same problem. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? Thank you!

For some reason that I have yet to determine, people with Matlab installed start getting .mdlp extensions appended to their downloaded files. That's what happened here. Rename the file to remove .mdlp (so that it ends in .dmg), then double-click the file and it should work.

Installing Flash Player Debugger Issue

In our organisation we are not allowed to install any software/package so easily. The thing is by default all the machine have flash player (version 11.4) and in one of the machine I want to install flash player debugger (11.0). But the system not allowing to install flash player debugger because, the flash player is already available in the system. Can you tell me how to install flash player debgger without uninstalling existing flash player. Is it possible to customize flash player debugger by removing flash player and keep only in debugger? thanks in advance. Srini

Can't Install Flash Player on Safari OS 10.3.9

Hi. I recently reinstalled my system software on my iBook G3,
and I've been trying to install the latest Flash Player for Safari
1.3.2 running on OS 10.3.9. Non Intel. I have tried downloading and
installing quite a few times. But no plug in is showing up in my
Installed Plug In window, and it's definitely not installed. I
tried running the uninstaller and reinstalling but I'm getting
nowhere. Can anyone help? Is there something missing from my system
that I might have missed when doing a reinstall of my OS a few days
ago?

Thanks Melophage for the help! After consulting apple care (for the 2nd time), we were able to resolve the issue without going to adobe tech support as a last resort. I used the uninstaller to be sure all adobe components were removed from my mac. Then, we reinstalled the OS (without erasing). Don't know why the installer was hanging on me, but the fresh reinstall did the trick and solved the problem.
I appreciate your insight again! Take care!

Flash Player for Safari

I know doesn't like it, but I was forced to install Flash Player in Safari in order to be able to read the eedition of the newspaper. I also had to reactivate Java. Yet, the paper still will not download even though those installations were successful. Even though I can do it in Firefox without a problem. When I click on the link I am sent each day, I get the box that the paper should appear in, but the word FLASH in the middle of the box where the paper should be.
I have been doing this successfully for a long time with Lion, but I'm guessing maybe an update to Safari has created a problem. I don't know but would love to get this resolved if anyone has any suggestions.

Doubtful that the paper uses Java, but it almost certainly uses Javascript (which confusingly is something completely different).
Make sure Javascript is activated, but not Java.
The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFl ash
You can check here what version of Flash player you actually have installed: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

Flash player for safari won't download

Flash Player for Safari 7.04 won't download. It's not an antivirus issue because it's turned off, everything is enabled.

Chris,
My problem was that while the installer downloaded, the installation process always crapped out and gave me this error message: "Error: Unable to proceed with the installation". Tried everything and none of it worked. I COULD download v12 of Flash, but noticed that it used a different style of installer that has a simpler, "chunkier" progress bar and overall look, and doesn't ask about whether Flash should check for updates automatically until AFTER the install was done (different from the standard v14 installer, which has a skinnier progress bar and prompts you about auto updates before most of the installation happens).
Just saw your post, downloaded the installer from the macromedia link you provided, and it installed fine! Superfast. Done and done.
In doing so, however, I noticed that the alt version of the v14 Flash installer from your link also has the same simpler, chunkier type of installer as v12. is there a know problem with the standard (skinny progress bar) version of the installer and Mavericks? This has happened before, and I'm now just realizing that the installs only ever work with the "alt" style of installer.
a) Is Adobe aware of this problem? are they working to make a fix so that i don't have to pull my hair out everytime there's a new security update for Flash?
b) Would you please consider posting your solution in a more obvious place? I'm betting there are a lot of other Mac users having this issue, but because Adobe help can be sort of a byzantine mess (not you, obviously, but the system itself) I'm betting there are a ton of Mac users that are just giving up, like I almost did. Making this issue known, and positing the alt download will save many people many hours of grief.
Thanks for posting your solution!
Cheers,
M

I've tried installing the Flash Player Debugger 11.5 but I can't find where it's installing and Flash Builder 4.6 will only use Flash Player Debugger 11.2 whenever I test. And after installing FB 4.7, images in my swf are missing when testing in FB 4.7 and FB 4.6. Everything worked fine right up to installing FB 4.7 and AIR 3.6.
Any help?
