New versions of swf files wont download automatically?!

Let's say I have a main swf file. If I edit that and upload,
chances are good that it will be re-downloaded on my client's
browsers when they refresh. However, if that swf then loads a swf
using "loadMovie()" that has been edited and uploaded, the browser
(safari 2.03 / Firefox 1.5 on Mac or pc) will not go and get the
latest version. It will display the cached swf file?!?! I have
"<meta HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" CONTENT="Mon, 04 Dec 1999 21:29:02
GMT">" on all of the html pages to (I thought) force the browser
to redownload all content, including all swf files.
What can I do to ensure that external swf's loaded with
"loadMovie()" get pulled from the server when they have been
edited??
This has been a thorn in my side for a while now. It doesn't
happen all the time, but enough where it is extremely frustrating
and embarrasing to try and explain to the client. I am using Flash
Pro 2004 and am using "loadMovie("
http://domain/path_to_swf",
"_root.mc")" to load the external swf file.
Thanks in advance!

Interesting.  Could it be happening because I don't have the Flash Player installed on my Mac?  (Hadn't gotten around to that yet since buying this Mac, and wanted to research a bit first to understand this whole Apple vs. Flash issue...)
So could it be that since I don't have Flash Player installed, a misconfigured web server is downloading the .swf file to my mac directly?
Sorry if these are all stupid questions; I feel a bit stupid being so new to the Mac world.  But could this also be related to the news today of this flashback trojan?

  • New version of Firefox will not download

    I'm running Firefox 3.6.4, but every time I download the new version, after it's done downloading it just disappears! The download folder is completely empty!
    I have gone into the help menu, checked for updates and it says there are no new updates, yet Firefox still tells me that I am running this old version.
    What am I doing wrong, or what step am I missing??
    Thanks,

  • How to uncheck "Add as a new version to existing files" inside the "Add a document" dialog

    I am working on a publishing site collection using the enterprise wiki template. Currently when users want to insert an image inside the rich text editor, they will be prompted with the following:-
    And if the user insert a picture that already exists then it will replace the existing one, which might cause the picture to be displayed inside a Wiki page which it does not belong to !!
    So is there a way to do any of the following:-
    Give the new picture a unique auto generated name?
    To un-check the   “Add as a new version to existing files” by default?
    Or to always prevent replacing images, as this can cause many conflicts !!
    Can anyone advice ?please?

    You can do it using below script

  • Export version 10 SWF file from Flash CC

    Hello,
    I am trying to work out how to export a version 10 SWF file from Flash CC. Every media agency I am supplying files to requires version 10 but I can only export a Flash Player 10.3 file which creates a version 12 SWF.
    Does anyone have any advice other than buying an odler version of Flash....
    Thanks for your time.

    you can use flash cs 6.  it's part of your cc subscription.

  • New After Effects project file for download

    New After Effects project file for download:
    http://marko-stojkovic.blogspot.com/p/animation_03.html
    and more on: http://www.marko-stojkovic.blogspot.com/p/animation_03.html

    Not that I'm aware of. I think the largest one I've ever made was around 98mb. At that point, the file became way too cumbersome, and I ended up splitting up the project more efficiently into multiple project files. There may be a limit, but if not, then it would probably be any file size limits imposed by your OS.

  • TS1363 I have an ipod shuffle, 7yrs old. Says I have an error and to re-install. Then it tells me, this file cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes. I cannot find any newer version and don't recall downloading it anyway.

    Told to re-install itunes. When I do, it tells me "This file cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes." Therefore I can't re-install! Can't seem to find a way to get itunes back. This is a 8 yr old ipod shuffle...

    The latest version of iTunes can be downloaded here
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/
    As long as your computer supports it, the latest iTunes will work with all shuffle models, back the first one.
    Just one thing.  The latest iTunes hides the sidebar, which can be confusing for long-time users.  To show the sidebar, from the menu bar, under Views, select Show Sidebar.

  • Downloaded new version and now it wont even open up foxfire

    i did the up grade now mozilla wont open so i tried to uninstall and it tells me its already running cant open or delete

    Even though you've got a newer version of iTunes, it might be worth checking through the following document with that one:

    If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop

  • New Album from Smart Album makes NEW VERSIONS of all files? Bug?

    Got what I think is an oddball bug here, but see if any of you have experienced it.
    Making a new album of the contents of a Smart Album with about 600 images resulted in the SBOD, a lot of time and disk activity and the creation of NEW VERSIONS of all the files populating the new album. This, of course, also doubled the number of files in the original Smart Album, since the keywords used are a match. First thinking it might be something I had not read in the manual, I grabbed the book and could not find this behavior listed…..so….my expected result is a new album with the identical contents of the Smart Album selected as the source.
    I am creating a presentation for a client whose work is in multiple projects in a ~150GB library. All images are heavily keyworded, so making Smart Albums of specific elements of the work was easy. My intended workflow to get through this mountain of pix was to make Smart Albums of specific elements, then make New Albums from each, manually edit and reorg these albums individually, then combine my edits into a single book file.
    Now the structure leading to this problem is as follows:
    1) I created a single “main” folder to store all projects and other elements and hierarchy for this client. Clicking on this folder returns some 8500 images spanning multiple projects…all as expected.
    2) At the top level of this “main” folder, I made about 20 Smart Albums to presort the main elements I wanted to include. I made the first Smart Album by clicking the icon in the top bar. The rest of the smart albums I made by duplicating the previous Smart Album, then changing keyword selection. I would select the new keywords I wanted, then de-select the ones that were from the album I had duplicated. The reason I did it that was for speed, there is little delay in displaying the items that were already searched for, and a significant delay in going from new. Anyway, somewhere in this process, I decided to organize my workflow further, so I created a new folder (calling it Smart Album Selects) at the same level as the Smart Albums, and then dragged the Smart Albums into the new Smart Album Selects folder. Still, no problem.
    3) Later in my session, I went to create another new Smart Album, and this time I did so already in the Smart Album Selects folder. When I opened the HUD to select the keywords, the Keyword area and check box were greyed out!!! Weird, I though….so I simply duplicated an existing Smart Album from my Smart Album Selects folder, opened the HUD, and sure enough, all my keywords were there. I changed the keyword selection, and went on with work. During the day I did this same operation 3 more times, making 4 Smart Albums created the same way.
    4) OK…here is the strange behavior. To make my new custom album from the Smart Album selects, I selected one of the Smart Albums, and clicked on the New Album icon. Got the expected dialog, make with 1 image or all images, selected all images, and instead of a new album popping up moments later, I got the SBOD, and the Activity Monitor said Aperture and my hard disk was cranking away. About 4-5 minutes later, Aperture became responsive again, and had created a new album. However, upon inspection, the album contained NEW VERSIONS of all the images that were in the Smart Album, about 600 files.
    5) I went back and clicked on a different Smart Album in the same spot in the hierarchy…but it was one of the first ones I had created (meaning I built this BEFORE reorganizing into the Smart Album Selects folder). Tried making a new album again, with 1 image, worked fine, popped up instantly. Tried selecting 4 images, same thing, worked fine. Selected All, made album, worked fine.
    6) Went back to the Smart Album I had the problem with, this time selected 4 images, make New Album, and sure enough the New Album had NEW VERSIONS of the pix again…OK, I went back to the top of my folder hierarchy, my “main” folder and made a brand new Smart Album by clicking the icon, and selecting keywords. Made a new album from that, no problem, popped up instantly, no new versions.
    7) I then re-made all my Smart Albums at the top of the folder hierarchy, and they all work fine creating new albums. I got back to the task at hand…hopefully there is enough data here to let the Aperture engineers find this problem…Assuming, that is it is not just me misunderstanding some element in the program.
    Sorry for the length, but has anyone else run into this??

    Nope, all the images at this point in my workflow have been unstacked, with the non-picked members of the original stacks discarded.
    Now that it seems I am not the only one who has witnessed this behavior, what I am really trying to find out, is what is the definitive proper operation of this according to the Aperture group at Apple.
    Assuming I have opened a Smart Album with images displayed, and no images are selected.
    Is the correct behavior:
    1) Selecting New Album makes a new Untitled Album (very quickly) with the identical contents of the Smart Album....OR...
    2) Selecting New Album makes a new Untitled Album (slowly) with NEW VERSIONS of the contents of the Smart Album. (Also, depending upon the number of images, typically brings up SBOD and makes Aperture unresponsive until it is complete.)
    Now what I expected to happen was #1, as it is what happens when I select New Album when a project is selected. Given Apple's human interface creedo for intuitive operation, I think this is the most intuitive choice, because I can't think of a good reason I would want to double the number of versions of all files in an album, unless I expressly told the app to do this.
    Could an Apple guy provide the definitive answer, please...
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Delete an swf file after download

    This is the situation: after a client load external content
    from an http server into his flash movie, a copy of the
    file for the external content (say, an SWF file) is stored
    in the "Temporary Internet Files" folder.
    To protect the external content, is it possible to
    automatically
    remove this file, after the loading is done? This should of
    course be built into the client movie. Within ActionScript,
    there seems to be no delete file function of any sort.
    Is it possible to do it by loading a javascript or ASP page?
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Thanks for all your answers,
    which have really helped me
    to put things in perspective.
    Let me make the situation more
    explicit. I am going to use
    an empty movieClip as a container.
    All the Flash codes/graphics will be
    loaded dynamically into this
    container during run time from
    a server, with user authentication.
    There are two separate issues:
    (1). Whether the client would
    be able to access these external
    contents on the server, after
    cracking the container swf.
    On the server side, there
    are authentication routines,
    so that a user must be verified
    before he could load any external
    contents. I can hide all related
    scripts/functions on the server
    side (via FMS or http server), so
    that a user does not know what I
    am doing. In fact, I could copy
    to-be-loaded-contents into a scratch
    directory just before loading,
    and then the server side script
    will delete these contents
    after loading. So this
    part should be as safe as my
    authentication method, even if a
    hacker has decompiled my swf.
    (2). Whether the client
    would be able to get hold of
    the contents on his local
    machines, since these
    contents are loaded into
    the container movieClip. This
    part I am not sure. I thought
    that if the files were not saved
    on the disk as temp files and
    if my connection was secured/
    encrypted using https,
    then it would be difficult for
    a client to get hold of the
    content swf files. But you guys
    seem to be saying that a client can
    still get it somehow.

  • Do newer versions of project files build on older ones?

    I'm asking this for  a friend.
    The project in question has been revised several times. If one was to delete the older-version project files to recover some disc space, would it also delete the same resource files used in the newer versions?

    To be clear, I hope your friend is not relying on auto-save to save their projects. Auto-saves in the auto-save folder are snap shot of a project file saved at adjustable intervals. These do not overwrite the active project file (Like what Final Cut X does). Your open project should be saved manually and often. You can "Save As" to create a new or back up project (redundant in most cases in my opinion).
    What I recommend is to go into the Auto-save preferences and set it to save every 5-10 minutes, and raise the number of copies from a default of 20 to 100 or more. It really depends if you want to back up hours or days of work.
    Also, when loading an autosave project, be sure to choose the project file by date\time created and not the the auto generated filename. This is because after the autosave project version limit has been reached, the numbering in the file names will rollover and then save over the 1st one, then second, and so on.
    Lastly, when loading an autosave project, immediately do a "Save As" to you main project folder, outside of the auto-save folder, or else premiere will create a whole new set of sub folders, including an autosave folder.
    I've seen confused editors trying to find their project, and they have like 4 levels of autosave folders and they have no clue what they have worked on.
