Newbie having trouble w/flash

Hi: I'm new to web design and Dreamweaver ( Dreamweaver CS3 )
I've created an swf flash video, loaded it correctly
( as far as I can tell ) and nothing but a white box appears.
It doesn't play in browser preview or when I upload it to the host
site. It is frustrating but there must be something simple that I'm
forgetting?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Here are some header responses that can help:
http://www.berkeleycitycollege.edu/students/lsimonson/SkinUnderPlay.swf
HTTP/1.x 404 Not Found
Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0
HTTP/1.x 404 Not Found
http://www.berkeleycitycollege.edu/students/lsimonson/flash/intro_pigbu
tt.flv
HTTP/1.x 404 Not Found
Looks as if you either didn't upload the skin file (a .swf
that is
created for the video control buttons) and the .flv file, or
you
uploaded them to the wrong place. SkinUnderPlay.swf MUST be
uploaded to
the the same folder as your html file, but the .flv can go in
your
flash folder.
Also, since your Web server is Microsoft-IIS/6.0, there is a
chance
that it hasn't been setup for the .flv mime type. I would
think a
college in Berkeley would have that setup by now, but it
might be worth
checking. Here's the tech note that covers it:

Having trouble with Flash Player in regards to youtube

Hello,
Recently I started having trouble with Flash Player in regards to using it with youtube. Sometimes all I see is a blank white screen and sometimes I do see the video with no surrounding youtube webpage or suggested videos etc. Nothing has changed on my computer as far as I know except the usual updates etc. I have tried uninstalling Flash Player and reinstalling with no luck. I even tried an older version. I am running windows XP and IE and have McAfee for my anti-virus. I am not the most computer savy person in the world and could sure use some help.
Thanks,
Ron

Hitomi,
Thanks for the links. I am pretty sure it is not a problem with Flash Player itself but something else that is causing this. I don't know how to do a "screen shot", but even if I did I don't know that it would do anygood to show that because the youtube video screen and surrounding webpage only show for a second and then it goes totally white.
Pat,
Here is what I found:
Intel(R) 82915G/GV/910GL Express Chipset Family
Driver Provider          Intel corporation
Driver Date               6/8/2005
Driver Version          6.14.10.4332
Digital Signer               Microsoft Windows Hardware Compatability Publis
Update:
This morning after doing some further reading and research on the Internet I tried running youtube in the "InPrivate Browsing" window and youtube worked fine. So thinking I should delete my Internet Browing History, Cache, and Cookies, based on what I read I went ahead and did that but it still doesn't want to work. I think I did the deletions correctly? As I mentioned above I am not very computer savvy but can get by on the basics. Where should I go from here based on this info?
Thanks,
Ron

Having trouble opening flash help/f1 in cs6

This is so stupid I can't get any help I need from any one I don't know what I am even doing here. I have tried to contact adobe but all they want you to do is join or become a member of their boards and that is it. I am having trouble opening flash help on cs6 and no one can help me do it.

Flash 8 though.

Anyone else having trouble with flash player over working the processor since the security update?

Hi everyone-
Since the last security update (flash player version 11.7.700.169) I have been having trouble with flash player beating the daylights out of my processor. My OS is Windows XP. This only happens on some sites, not all. For example netflix and amazon are fine, but acorn and huffington post videos send the processor into overdrive. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions? Thanks in advance :-)

I have XP on some machines, and I do not experience any such problems with 11.7.700.179. If I were, I would try two things
update the graphics drivers; see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/945765

Having trouble installing Flash 11.3 on Firefox

I was having trouble upgrading to the newest version of flash. I kept getting the error that flash was already running, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't. I read through the tips and saw it was suggested to uninstall and then reinstall flash. So I downloaded and ran the flash uninstaller. I successfully uninstalled the application. I tried to re-download and continued to get the error that flash was running even though it had been uninstalled. At this point I don't know what to do. It should be noted that the problem all began when I found my computer had contracted TextEnhance. I found the cure was disabling Shockwave Flash, which made me unable to watch flash videos. So when I clicked the error box on the video it directed me to Adobe Flash 11.3 download, which I am trying to install in place of Shockwave because Shockwave seems to be the source of my TextEnhance problems. For what it's worth, disabling Shockwave has cured my computer of TextEnhance. Any help in making it so I can watch flash videos would be much appreciated

What is your operating system & version?
Can you post a screenshot of that message ("already running")?
I suggest that you remove any malware before retrying to install.

Having trouble with flash and linking to Sliding panels - PLEASE help

Having trouble with Sliding panels and flash. Otherwise everything works fine but when I'm trying to implement the link
<a href="#" onclick="sp1.showPanel('panel1'); return false;">Panel1</a>
to a flash button I get confused. I have tried following
on (press) {
getURL("javascript:sp1.showPanel('panel1');");
and it did not work. What would you suggest? I am desperate. Please help me! Any suggestions are highly appreciated!!!!

Thanks for your answer!
I have tried both sp1.ShowPanel('panel1'); and window.sp1.ShowPanel('panel1'); they both give blank window with [object]
I have found a solution that works in other browsers, but not in IE. Well basicly it works, but after a few clicks IE freezes.
on (press) {
getURL("javascript:sp1.showPanel('panel1'); void(0);");
Would you happen to have a solution other than that? I believe that the void(0); causes the IE to freeze.

Newbie having trouble with template highlight (button)

Stupid question I'm sure, but for the life of me I can't figure it out:
When using a template, if I change anything at all about the TYPE related to a button, or the size of the button/text group, the corresponding HIGHLIGHT gets freaky. I can't for the life of me figure out how to control where that highlight appears, or even it's size, etc. So I have these beautiful DVD menus that are marred by weird highlight bars--some of them run across two buttons.
(Yes, I figured out how to make the highlights invisible, but that defeats the whole point of course.)
Hope my question wasn't confusing. Any help would be wildly appreciated. Thanks...

Okay, let me pose a theory: Is it possible my installation is having trouble, in other words is what I'm seeing NOT normal?
Can anyone verify (it would only take a few minutes) my findings? Here are the steps: Create a brand-new project using (just to make sure we're on the same page) the Apple template called "Wedding Classical Index." Next, resize any one of the main elements (labeled "button 1," etc.). OR, change the text to two words, or modify the text size/font. When finished, hit the Simulate button and mouse over the button you modified.
Does the highlight look normal, e.g., underneath the text, etc., or has it moved to the side of the text, or changed into a vertical line, or worse?
I just want to verify that my installation isn't being screwy. Thanks to the kind soul who takes a minute to help me out with this so I can move on...

FAQ: I'm having trouble installing Flash Catalyst CS5, how do I clean up beta installations?

The majority of users have trouble installing Flash Catalyst CS5 when they have not properly run the uninstaller on a previous version (typically a beta version).
If this is the case, the first thing you should try is running the Adobe CS5 cleanup script: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/829/cpsid_82947.html

Flash Player Protected Mode provides a modern, sophisticated set of security protections that we see as critical in today's security landscape.
We highly recommend that users not disable ProtectedMode. Also, it's worth noting that by manually changing your mms.cfg, you have opted out of Protected Mode for all future versions of Flash Player, as we will continue to honor that preference. This puts your system at risk, and that risk will continue to grow over time.
Ultimately, this is an issue with the RealPlayer Browser Record plug-in. There is a more technical explanation in the Mozilla bug referenced above in the thread, but the simplified version is that the security enhancements designed to prevent the introduction of malware via Flash Player make RealPlayer Browser Record plug-in no longer compatible with Flash Player for Firefox. You can disable the record functionality to eliminate this issue, while retaining the ability to view both Flash and Real Player content.
To disable the Real Player Browser Record functionality while maintaining the enhanced security provided by Flash Player with Protected Mode, do the following:
    Launch RealPlayer
    Click the RealPlayer icon in the upper-left corner of the window, and choose Preferences
    Choose Download & Recording from the left-hand menu
    Uncheck "Enable Web Download & Recording for these installed browser"
    Click OK

Newbie having trouble with keyframes

I'm a newbie to Flash, and have just started going through
the online tutorial here:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/intro_flash_pt2_04.html
This is the problem I'm having: In the section "Creating a
frame-by-frame animation", when I have created the symbols, and
want to edit them, the Properties Inspector shows that the images
are bitmaps, not movie clips. Why is this? Shouldn't they have
become movie clips when I created the symbols, renamed them, and
saved them as movie clips? Is there something I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Text
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/intro_flash_pt2_04.html

Did you have the bitmaps selected and chose "Modify - Convert
to Symbol" (F8) when you "created the symbols"?
Or did you select "Insert - New Symbol" (Ctrl-F8)? This would
of course have created empty movieClips and left your bitmaps
untouched.

Newbie has Trouble Loading Flash Player

Hello everybody,
I have the WRT54G2 sending a signal from my Windows XP PC to a computer in the other room (Win 2000) that is connected to the flat screen TV. The internet comes up fine but I can't watch any movies on Hulu because there is no Adobe flash player and it won't load.
I tried everything to troubleshoot the Adobe including redoing the permissions, trying Flash version 9, and other advice on the Adobe site. Even tried loading it from a thumb drive.
So I think there may be some setting on the router or whatever that is preventing the Adobe Flash Player from loading.
Any help much appreciated since this is why I bought the router. Thank you,
Willydo, Tucson Arizona

TMD and Freebelle,
Yes, when I try to load the FlashPlayer, there is an example screen that pops up and says I may have to click on the "yellow bar along the top of the page" to allow the player to load but there is no yellow bar or similar to click on.
The Adobe site does talk about setting the security to Medium OR to go in and set the Active X files to ask to load each time. I tried doing it both ways but still get an error message.
One thing that is curious is that Adobe has a page you can go to that looks at your computer and tells what type of Flash Player is installed. When I go to that page, it says I have version 10. xx.xx. But that is on the wired computer that is sending the signal NOT the one receiving the signal. I do need a Flash on BOTH computers (I think). Hulu works on the main computer, but on the other computer, the film titles etc. show up, but they won't play.
Thanks again,
Willydo
I don't know for sure it this problem is related to having the router, but I don't remember ever having an issue with loading a flash player before.

Newbie having trouble with opt/rep regions

Hi everyone. I'm migrating my site from simple, square html
to nice, elegant css. I've done most of the work, but I'm having
some trouble with templates. Here's an example of how a page
created with a template will (hopefully) look:
http://www.technfun.com/temp/example.html
I've succeeded in making the article region (inside the white
frame) editable, but I can't figure out how to handle the side bar
menu. It's supposed to contain links to the chapters and
subchapters of the main article, so that clicking there will bring
you to the right place in the page (a simple # link, in other
words). However, the article writer (me) needs to be able to add as
many "SidebarLarge" entries as necessary. Under each of those there
may or may not be the need to add "SidebarSmall" entries for
subchapters.
I read the help file and figured out I need to do something
with the optional and repeating region settings, but whenever I try
I only ever manage to make a mess of the sidebar. Anyone can tell
me how exactly I'm supposed to do this?
Thanks :)

Why not just make the whole sidebar an editable region
instead? Then you
can add as much stuff as you see fit.
