Keystrokes are slow or missing. Shockwave Flash was the problem. THANKS!!

Question say it all. Your solution took care of the problem. Sug67

Wow, ok so I figured out what was wrong.
I have a logitech MX1000 mouse, and I havn't gotten around to installing the drivers yet. When I press down on the wheel It makes all that crazy stuff happen, then when I press down on it again I get the nice little multi colored spinner for about a minute, then everthing works. Go figure?

Error '"Shockwave Flash", but the plug-in failed to load successfully

Hi, some help please. I'm not very technical on macs so I need somebody to help with as much detail as possible. I use the browser Safari 1.3.2 but it will no longer display flash content, instead I get the lego box with a question mark in it and the error message '...“Shockwave Flash”, but the plug-in failed to load successfully'. I've checked some discussion threads but they are beyond my realm of comprehension - I am but a simple man in need of help. Please help. Please. Somebody...

Hi neonhook,
First of all, Welcome to the  Discussion forums!
"I am but a simple man in need of help."
Trust me, there are a lot of us around here like that
If possible, I would suggest using a different browser such as Camino 1.6.4 or even Firefox 2.0.0.x (but keep in mind that Firefox 2.0.0.x will only be supported fully using 10.3.9 until mid-December 2008 and Firefox 3.0 is for OS 10.4 and above only.
Both Camino and Firefox can be customized to look and feel a lot like Safari and have many features that Safari 1.3.2 does not. I use Camino and find it faster and with no crashes due to flash web content etc. You'll be able to use sites such as Google Maps again, etc.
Safari for 10.3.9 is no longer being supported and to use a newer version of Safari you would need to upgrade your OS to at least 10.4 and above.
hope that helps some and post back with comments and questions,

Despite ticking the box "remove all website data", when I reset Safari not all stored cookies are eliminated. How can I overcome the problem? Or is it a bug?

Despite ticking the box "remove all website data", when I reset Safari not all stored cookies are eliminated. How can I overcome the problem? Or is it a bug?

I have done a little experimenting: 1-close all open windows (I found that I had to do this step in order to keep Safari from hanging-will be explained later). 2: Remove all data in Prefs. 3: Immediately close the prefs window (no window should be open at this point) and quit Safari. Try to complete step 3 fast as possible; I have it down to a few seconds. The reason I urge you to close all windows is that Safari hangs until forced to quit upon immediately quitting after removing cookies. I think the auto page reload in Lion is the cause of these hiccups but I can't be sure about that. The hasty quit I found is crucial to success. Don't know why that is but it could prevent the data from re-populating. A quick flush, if you will. Hit me back if you need any of my suggestions clarified; a bit wordy, I know

HT204492 If you're using the paired remote and the Apple TV status light flashes white, the problem isn't with the remote.

If you’re using the paired remote and the Apple TV status light flashes white, the problem isn’t with the remote.
Then what is the problem since I have troubleshoot my remote, it is working but cannot do anything on apple TV?

If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
(You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)

Missing 'shockwave flash object' in powerpoint

Hi,
I've read hundrews of tutorials on how to add a file into a powerpoint 2007 presentation. For some reason though, I don't have the option of 'shockwave flash object' in the menu.
I am running windows 7 new as of 2 days ago and a copy of office I downloaded from microsoft 2 days ago. I have re-installed both Flash Player and Office - both with no succession. Is there any way I can fix this?
I've tried searching for the .ocx file - but have no idea what it could be called and found nothing that looked remotely related.
Does anyone have any idea what I can do? The project is due tomorrow at 9am - and I've been working on this one bit for all of today without getting any closer.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have installed PowerPoint 2010 beta release on my machine. I was able to attach a SWF file to the presentation successfully. All options to insert a video are located on the Insert tab, in the Media group. Please refer to the link below on how to insert a flash movie to the presentation.

Macbook pro 2010...cursor is acting crazy jumping everywhere and responding very slow...thought it was the track pad but I plugged in a mouse and it still does the same thing...is this a virus?..and can someone please help?...

My Macbook pro is acting Crazy....the Cursor just keeps on jumping everywhere and not responding when I use the trackpad....Even when it does respond it is very slow...I thought it was the trackpad acting up but realized it wasnt when i plugged in a mouse and it still did the same thing...this happened one other time and shortly after my computer froze...I had to restart for it to work but restarting dosent help this time...can someone please help?...Is this a Virus?

It is not a virus. See my Mac Virus Guide*.
As to what it might be, that's hard to say. You should try some basic troubleshooting... Repair the hard drive with disk utility. Boot in safe mode and see if it happens then, log in to a different user account and see if it happens there, reboot from another system and see if it happens.
Apparently some people have had this kind of problem caused by swelling batteries that push on the underside of the trackpad and cause all kinds of strange problems. Is your machine's underside deformed at all?

Shockwave flash keeps giving problems

I have read all the articles about the shockwave flash problem but it keeps giving problems, saying it is busy or does nt react anymore, continue or stop.
If I continue nothing happens, if I stop the web-page disapears.
Should I use another browser ? I'm fond of Firefox but what to do?
I'm using W 8.1 and the latest Flash (15.0.0.152)
Thank you in advance for reacting.

You can check for problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions and try this:
*check for updates for your graphics drive drivers https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration
*disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

You can also try to uninstall and reinstall Flash

Our IBM Unix system uses a program called VSIFax (Esker) to create PDF documents such as invoices. Users that have updated to Acrobat version 11.0.10 can open the PDF but then when trying to save the document the get a message "This document could not be saved.

A "quick" fix that worked for me was to uninstall Adobe... then download the base install for Adobe Reader 11.0.
Then download each of the individual updates and run them sequentially.
I've installed back up to the last security update which is version 08 and have been able to do normal Save As operations.
You will have to disable automatic updates in order to stay at version 08 until Adobe resolves this issue in a later release.

Minimize, Maximize, and close buttons are missing and nothing fixes the problem. What can I do next to fix this problem?

I use windows 7. These buttons work but invisible. I saw someone on this forum that had the same problem but he uses xp so I think his solution will not work for me. Please, someone help me.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Command+Shift+F).
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-to-use-full-screen
If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top of the screen to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear. Click the Maximize button (top right corner of the Navigation Toolbar) to leave full screen mode or right-click empty space on a toolbar and choose "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press the F11 key.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

Everytime I open firefox, all words or letters below the toolbar half inch to 3 inch from right to left are not clickable(not working). but they are working or clickable on google crhome or internet explorer. please help to resolve this problem. thanks!

The '''''Yahoo! Toolbar''''' and the '''''Babylon''''' extension have been reported to cause that problem. They seem to invisibly extend downward over the top of the web page display area. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

Ok I have a iPod 4G 32GB, all my apps freeze and then close or don't even open at all. I tried deleting and reinstalling as I thought the app was the problem, but it still did the same thing and I have only wasted 5.3 GB. What's wrong with it?

MAKE IT LITERALLY 8 TIMES I'VE BEEN KEEPING TRACK THAT SAFARI CLOSED ON ME WHILE WRITING THIS ALSO DOWNLOADS SPEEDS ARE SLOW CAN SOMEONE HELP ME BEFORE I BREAK THIS ******* IPOD I ONLY USED 5.3 GB AND MY APPS KEEP CLOSING OR DON'T EVEN OPEN HEELLLPPP!!

You will also notice that this is the correct answer in most cases.
Have you tried all of them?
These are indeed the basic troubleshooting steps for your most every ipod problem.

Is loading a as2 swf into my as3 flash site the problem here?

My question is listed on another board here, but I am too inexperienced to understand how to fix my issue:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5045059#5045059
I went on flashkit.com and a member there immediately said that it "sounds like the problem is using the AS2 swf loaded into the AS3 swf."
If it is... this mean I will have to convert everything in the AS2 .swf (including the XML retrieval script) to AS3. I may need some help with that if that is the problem.
So will AS2 swfs cause XML communication and retrieval issues if loaded with a loader script into an AS3 file?
Everything works (the buttons are clickable and when you click on a square in the "thumbnails" scroller it displays the correct photo title and captions), except I just cannot see the actual photos in my XML gallery. I am truly clueless as to why this happens and I've searched for days straight and tried many things...
You'll find all the details of my problem in the above link.
Thanks!

Its really not worth the trouble to get as2 working with as3 if your goal is to make an xml driven gallery. There are literally thousands of free examples/tutorials how to achieve that feature with 50+ LOC. Like this one.

Last seconds of uploaded podcast are cut off! What could be the problem here?

Hello!
we uploaded some podcasts in our itunes store account. We produced them by ourselves and they are also online on our website (futurzwei.org). The source is the same Content Management System (Joomla). At the website, the podcasts are complete. In the itunes store, the same podcasts are incomplete. The last seconds are cut off!
How can this be, when the original is complete?
I don't know where the problem could be.
Can it be a problem of the transfering mode?
Is it a problem of the Content Management System we use? Or any special setting we could have set wrongly in there?
Of the format the podcasts have (normal mp3)?
Thank you very much for any help!

See if you qualify for this program:
