Macromedia flash prosfessional 8 - help

Hello people,  i just download macromedia flash professional 8 , and i would like to know if using a  serial code, is illegal or not, because i see a lot of pages with serial codes,  but im afraid that doing that is illegal and they going to sue me  or something.
Also, im planing in opening a forum in the future,  what would happen if the people there start spreading the serial code?,  adobe will  sue the forum, the user, or both?

  • Help with macromedia flash

    Hi,
    Can someone please please help me with macromedia flash?  I have the release 9 version installed on an Arch i686 (32 bit) system.  When I try to watch some videos I get the sound but no picture. (Foxnews.com videos are especially bad for this). Currently I am using Swiftfox from the AUR but I had 'Bon Echo' and it didn't work either. I've tried using konqueror but that says that there's no flash whatsoever on the machine. I figure I must have something wrong in my setup that's causing this.
    Does anyone know where to look??
    Thanks.

    I have same problem
    No flash in pages like Adobe's testing page or other. I installed flashplugin using "pacman -S flashplugin" also like wiki suggests, but in vain. Should I try the old "ln -s" method found in the wiki or what?

  • Installing adobe, macromedia flash etc.. HELP!

    Only just started using the internet on my mobile, tried to view a video on youtube and was shown the following error message; 'You either have javascript turned off or an old version of macromedia flash'. My question is-how do I go about installing these (and other) programs? If I was doing the same thing on my laptop it would be simple but I'm a complete beginner when it comes to mobile internet.
    Anyway help would be great. cheers

    Hi ThatFreep,
    The Macromedia Flash installed in N80 is a light version, so some flash programs on the Web may not be usable on N80.
    Sorry. Cheer. ^_^;

  • Help installing macromedia flash player

    Hi, I am having trouble installing macromedis flash player. I
    am on the adobe web site download page, click on the download and
    then a few seconds later it says installation successful. I do not
    get any dialog box, gold security bar. But, when I visit websites I
    get a message that says I need the newest version of the flash 6
    plug in, and links me back to the download page. I did a search of
    my computer for macromedia flash and could not find anything,
    although it could be under a different name.
    I am confused, how do I fix this? Thanks in advence!

    Hi
    Flash 8 has a problem with limited users. check your level in
    'User Accounts' in Contol panel.
    Also in 'Add or Remove Programs' you will see if Flash is on
    your system.
    If you are a limited user get an administrative user to set
    your account type to administrator temporarily ( XP Home ) or Power
    user ( XP PRO ). Log onto your account, Uninstall Flash, then
    reinstall from website.
    If this doesn't work then please supply more info i.e
    Operating system, Single or multiple accounts on computer, SP2 ?
    Firewall/antivirus etc.

  • Can't update or uninstall Macromedia Flash player!

    Hi folks!
    I've got a problem concerning the automatically installed Flash player. I am using a Qosmio G20.
    While installing a new program (Lexware Financial Office) this program tried to update the Macromedia Flash player to the newest version. But the deinstallation of the old player was interrupted and the following message was displayed:
    The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
    Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'install_flash_player_7.msi' in the box below.
    Use source:
    C:\Sysprep\
    Closing this window does end the whole installation process of this new program.
    After that I opened the list of installed programs to uninstall Flash manually, but with the same result.
    Then I searched the internet for this install_flash_player_7.msi. I found the file but I still can't remove or update the Flash Player.
    As a last chance I backed up all my data and used the recovery DVD to reinstall the whole system. Without installing any additional application, I had a look at the list of installed programs and guess what? The Flash Player has already been installed, so it is part of the recovery DVD.
    But why can't it be uninstalled? I really need to get rid of the old player to be able to install Lexware Financial Office...
    Thank you for your help in advance!
    Yvonne

    Thanks Eldorado,
    but I think I explained it not exactly enough: I know that the old Flash installation is looking for a file that seems to be on antoher pc / server / disc or what ever, but the problem is, that I did not install the Flash Player that I would like to remove, respectively upadte to the newest version.
    It is part of the Toshiba Recovery DVD. That means, after killing the HD and setting up the system completely new with the Toshiba Recovery DVD, this little tricky Flash Player is already installed.
    It seems to be that there is a wrong link or setup on this DVD. But if that is the case, I can not be the only one with this problem, or?
    And is there any way to remove this thing manually?
    Again, thanks in advance.

  • Macromedia Flash won't work

    Hello, Folks, I am having problems with any webpage that uses
    "flash" animation. (Please be kind- I know mechanics and hands-on
    things, but have a hard time with computers!) I have read some of
    the threads here that deal with a similar topic, but don't
    understand a lot of what I read. You guys are WAY above my head.
    I am running Windows XP and IE 6. I recently ran the
    Microsoft Windows updates (on April 02, I think, so I don't know if
    it included the troublesome Active-X change or not). Now it seems
    that some of the video/ picture features just aren't working right.
    If I hold the cursor arrow over the place where the animation
    should be, I get a message that says "click to activate or use this
    control", but clicking does nothing. Right-clicking, then selecting
    "settings" brings up a control panel for Macromedia Flash Player 8.
    I selected "Allow" and "remember", but no change. I tried updating
    the Macromedia, but it didn't help; completely wiping out the
    program and reinstalling, as suggested by Macromedia, didn't work
    either.
    I have turned off pop-up blockers, emptied temporary and
    cookie files, etc. to no avail. The animated pages WORK when logged
    in under my wife's name. (!?) The Macromedia page works and runs
    under her name, and shows that the program is installed, which it
    will not do under my user name. I have disabled the Microsoft IE
    pop-up blocker, and a "Popup Manager" program on my username, and
    it still won't work. All of these are running on hers, too (and are
    not disabled). Any ideas where to start? What would be different
    from one username to another that would cause this?
    Okay, some more information. The yellow pop-up bar ("Pop-up
    blocked") under the toolbar never appears, so I never have a chance
    to click on it to allow the information.
    I tried loading Mozilla Firefox, and loaded the appropriate
    Mcromedia version for it, and Mozilla does the exact same thing-
    just blank boxes where the animation should be. The animated pages
    still work, on IE and Firefox, on my wife's sign-in pages.
    I am running AVG antivirus, Ad-Aware SE Personal, CCleaner,
    Spysweeper, Spybot Search and Destroy, PopupManager, and
    Spywareblaster. I have disabled these as much as I know how, but
    nothing changes.
    Thinking more on this, a month or so back Trend Micro online
    virus scan found an infection by a virus named Anyman or something
    to that effect. It recommended removing a file, which I believe was
    a .dll file, but I am not sure of specifics. Normally I keep good
    documentation of such things, but the paper I wrote this down on
    has disappeared. Is there a file linked to animation that would be
    found in each individual user's section of XP, that possibly could
    have been deleted only from mine? Any good way to find it?
    I truly appreciate your consideration. Thanks again,
    Woodtroll

    I think the solution is a matter of directory permissions.
    Make sure your login/user has the same permissions as your
    wife's login/user. It might just be a matter of changing your
    account type to administrator in the User Accounts control panel.
    You should especially check that you have permissions to:
    Windows C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application
    Data\Macromedia\Flash Player
    This is where flash stores it's cookies and Flash could be
    having trouble changing them due to lack of permissions under your
    login so it can't make any changes to your Flash Player settings.
    I had the same problem when logging in to the network at
    work.
    If I logged in to the PC via the network server Flash would
    display the symptoms you're describing. Different user logins to
    the server would not work either but if I logged in to the PC
    locally, Flash worked fine. I think this is because when logging in
    via the network server, Flash tries to store the cookies on the
    server and it can't. I'm going to try to get the network manager to
    allow Flash access to this directory and hopefully that will fix
    the problem.
    Good luck to you, I spent a lot of hours finally figuring
    this out.

    Thank you.
    This is a bug in Extension Manager where from time to time
    one of the XML files that Dreamweaver uses gets corrupted in some
    fashion and Extension manager can't edit it any longer. I've found
    that it's Menus.xml in the User folder that tends to be the issue.
    For DW8, the file should be located here:
    C:\Documents and Settings\[UserName]\Application
    Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver 8\Configuration\Menus\menus.xml
    Mac:
    HD:Users:username:Library: Application
    Support:Macromedia:Dreamweaver MX
    2004:Configuration:Menus:Menus.xml
    So, how to to fix this issue. Sometimes you can uninstall all
    of your extensions and reinstall them one at a time.
    If that doesn't work, then you may be able to get away with
    deleting the Menus.xml file (make sure it is only the one within
    the username folder and not within the program install folder).
    Note: this action will cause any extension that added menu items to
    have those menu items removed. disabling and reenablign the
    extensions shoudl bring them back.
    Failing that, removing the user configuration folder (or even
    renaming it) may help. Note: This will cause all extensions to be
    removed from within Dreamweaver, so you'll have to reinstall.
    If none of that works, then you may have to resort to
    uninstalling DW, removing the user configuration folders, and then
    reinstalling DW.

  • Cant uninstall Macromedia Flash Player 6

    My system is unable to uninstall and upgrade from Macromedia Flash Player 6.0 r21. I have tried the Flash Player uninstall and the Flash Player 6 uninstall. I have manually deleted the Flash.ocx files wherever they occur.
    The Adobe Website acknowledges the latest Flash Player installed on my system, but when right click on a flash file I still only get the oprion of open with: Macromedia Flash Player 6.0 r21.
    Ther are files which prompt me to upgrade to the latest Flash Player, which I have done on many occasions. Remove programs does not even list the Macromedia Flash Player 6.
    I have even tried to upgrade to the later versions of versions Macromedia Flash Player 6, without success. I simply cannot get rid of Macromedia Flash Player 6.0 r21
    I have Windows XP home SP2
    Can anybody help?

    "The Adobe Website acknowledges the latest Flash Player installed on my system, but when right click on a flash file I still only get the oprion of open with: Macromedia Flash Player 6.0 r21."
    Flash is designed to play SWF content inside a browser. It's a browser plugin.  It's not designed to open local SWF on your system as an installed application.  So when you update to Flash player 10, you're updating your Flash Player ActiveX control (for IE windows) or the Flash Player plugin (for Firefox and all other OS/browsers).
    So, when you point your browser to http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome and it says you have Flash Player 10 then you have the most recent version.  If you need to open a local SWF launch your browser and use file:open
    Now, if you really want to try to get the older player off your machine I'd use the command line uninstall in http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/402/kb402435.html
    (but keep in mind that should uninstall ALL Flash Player files from your machine, so you'd have to resinstall FP10 afterwards).

  • "Macromedia Flash Player"; vs. "Flash Player?"

    My new camera says
    I need to download "Macromedia Flash Player": is that the same as "Flash Player?
    I tried to download the new Flash Player just in case and kept getting an error.  During the download attempts it said I already had it (flash player) and asked if I wanted to rerun it.  That's what failed repeatedly.  It keep telling me I had to close "conflicting" Yahoo Messenger and Internet Explorer before it could continue.  How do I close something that isn't running?  I am "multiply" confused.  Can you advise?

    Hopefully everything will work now, but I'm still confused.  I didn't get a chance to follow your instructions because in the process of trying to figure out how to close internet explorer and yahoo messenger without shutting down the install page; I succeded and then Incredimail popped up on the screen to "complete" the install it had been trying to do since yesterday.  As soon as  I managed to close those programs, it was all automatic.  I restarted AGAIN, just to make sure.  I went to the link you sent and it says I have:
    You have version 10,1,53,64 installed
    However, when I open program "add/delete" on my computer; as before, it lists the Flash Player but there aren't any MB listed like all the other programs have.  I know it's working because Incredimail came back on.  Of course,  initially I tried loading the new player because my photo program claimed it couldn't run without it.  Why would they say that if I already had it because it appears that I did until I started messing with things.  Somehow it then went away.  I'll try my photo  program again tomorrow if I can find time.  I have 2 doctor appointments. 
    Thanks so much for all your help.  I hope you don't mind if I "keep you", at least until I make sure the photo program is happy with the Flash Player.  Thanks and good night

  • "Cannot find the Macromedia Flash"

    I have requested help with constant pop-up error messages
    stating merely "Cannot find the Macromedia Flash" ever since
    downloading the latest Adobe Flash player. I received zero replies!
    I now cannot even find my post but have found that someone else had
    posted the exact same problem back in August of 2006, which also
    received zero replies. I cannot believe no one here has a clue or
    that I and this other person are the only two people to have
    experienced this problem. Since this message pops up at least a
    dozen or more times a day with no clue as to which possible
    application is producing it, I thought I will post this request for
    help as many times as I can until someone is annoyed enough to at
    least point me in the direction of finding the culprit and
    eliminating this message and stop the constant posts!

    when do you get this message?

    Hello,
    Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
    To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
    #Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
    #Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
    #Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
    # Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
    # Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
    # Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
    # Restart Firefox.
    This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
    Does this solve the problem? Let us know.
