No sound in shockwave player 11

I have installed, uninstalled shockwave player 11 both ways
(directly and stand-alone). When I go to the web-site my son's
teacher recommended for his auditory processing problem, the first
thing it does is installs an earlier version of shockwave player. I
do get the program to load but no sound. I have also downloaded to
my desktop, the swadcmpr.x32 file and copied it into the system 32,
macromed, shockwave, xtra file. I have turned my browser off when
installing. Basically, I have tried all of the fixes that I noticed
on this site with no luck. I would really appreciate anyones help
especially for my son. Thank you in advance.

Hey Dan,
After talking to someone in Adobe support, which they could
not figure the problem out either, I found another program on-line
that needed to download Shockwave player 11. I downloaded it from
that site and all is working well. I apologize I cannot remember
what or where the program is located, it was some game my children
wanted to play, but like I said, it worked. There must be something
in the "official" download that locks that part of the program up.
Good Luck!

Shockwave player compatible with OSX 10.10.2?

Since updating to Yosemite, I am having probs with shockwave player. When on certain sites, i get the error "plugin failed." I have reinstalled adobe reader to the latest version, and when checking shockwave it says i have most current version. I have not found a place where i can uninstall shockwave, then reinstall. i also cant find it in my apps folder (shouldnt it be separate from Adobe Reader?) I have checked and it does this failure on the latest versions of Safari, Firefox and Chrome. I have also run disk utility and repairs.
If shockwave player is not compatible with Yosemite, could u let me know? I have spent HOURS on this prob, with no solution. Any help will be appreciated.

It sounds like you have an older AirPort Express.
Check the Model No on the side of the device. If you see A1084 or A1088 there, Mountain Lion 10.8.2 will not support these devices.
You might be able to use a workaround mentioned in this article:
http://www.macworld.com/article/1167965/mountain_lion_and_the_ancient_airport_ba se_station.html
This is not supported by Apple, but it does work for me. Unfortunately, there is no way to say whether it might work for you if you want to try it.
Other users may post with some other workarounds as well.

Director won't work on OS X: "This application requires Shockwave Player 11"

Taking a Macromedia Director project and upgrading to Adobe Director (needing to upgrade for several reasons), I found that the published app no longer works on OS X. The error message appears as follows:
"Application Error
This application requires Shockwave Player 11, which can not be found. Click OK to download it."
In console:
Error loading /(path)/my.app/Contents/Frameworks/IMLLib.framework/IMLLib: dlopen(/(path)/my.app/Contents/Frameworks/IMLLib.framework/IMLLib, 262): no suitable image found. Did find: /(path)/my.app/Contents/Frameworks/IMLLib.framework/IMLLib: unknown file type, first eight bytes: 0x58 0x53 0x79 0x6D 0x0A
I made sure that it was being published as a projector, and not as a shockwave. I also tried publishing to an HFS filesystem as opposed to local to an ntfs system (I'm running Adobe Director on Vista). Oddly enough, when I originally ran this project on an XP machine (now deceased) this issue did not occur.
Thanks in advance to any help anyone can give!

This sounds very much like what started happening with my Director-based apps. Perhaps something in that forum thread will help or at least shed a clue, but if anyone comes up with a surefire fix for this, I and my customers would love to hear it.

Firefox Plugins lists Shockwave Flash 12.0.0.70 but Adobe lists this as Adobe Flash Player, and Version 12.0.9.149 as Adobe Shockwave Player, so wtf is going on

Flash causes us all immense confusion, and Firefox is adding to the problem.
My Firefox Add-ons page lists (under Plugins -- isn't there a difference?) that I have:
Shockwave Flash 12.0.0.70 which is set to "Always Activate".
Adobe websites list:
Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.70
Adobe Shockwave Player 12.0.9.149
-- so what on earth is the Firefox-listed "Shockwave Flash"?
This simply adds to the utter confusion already surrounding Flash Player -- which I cannot find anywhere amongst my Programs -- but which I can find under "Uninstall or change a Program" where it is listed as "Adobe Flash Player 12 Plugin".
There is also the thorny issue of FlashPlayer vs. FlashPlayerDownloader......
I need a flash of inspiration to get me out of shock -- I'm not waving, I'm drowning!

In the internals of the plugin it is still referenced as Shockwave Flash. That hasn't changed as it would break websites that check for a specific plugin name. You can see that on the about:plugins page and in the properties of the Flash plugins file.
You can open the Web Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer) and paste this JavaScript code in the command line to see how the Adobe Flash Player plugin identifies itself:
<pre><nowiki>console.log(navigator.plugins["Shockwave Flash"].name);
console.log(navigator.plugins["Shockwave Flash"].description);
</nowiki></pre>
*https://developer.mozilla.org/Tools/Web_Console
On disk you will also see Macromedia for folder names used by the plugin.
*32 bit Windows: C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash\
*64 bit Windows: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\
* C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\

Old movie will not play in new shockwave player

Hi, I have searched the forums, Adobe support and web in
general for help on this, but to my surprise have not found
anything. I created some Shockwave movies perhaps 5 years ago for
science education and have not used Director since then. I just
received a report that the movies are broken and will not play.
This is happening on WinXP in IE and in Firefox with the latest
Shockwave player installed, but the movies work fine on OSX 10.4.8
in Safari and Firefox, also with the latest Shockwave player
installed. I am not a Director developer anymore and do not own a
current version of the program, I am primarily a scientist and
educator. I'm hoping the problem is in the code that embeds the
movie, and that the movies are still compatible with the new
Shockwave player on Windows. Can anyone help out, please? One of
the movies can be found at

How can I get rid of Shockwave Player Error message? I'm not trying to play anything, but it pops up whenever I reset my Safari.

I keep getting a message on my Mac saying:
Shockwave Player Error
To view the movie, open your browser in the 32-bit mode.
1) In Safari, select applications/safari in the Finder and click more info
2) Ensure that Open in 32-bit mode is selected
3) Re-launch the browser.
I did this, and selected the open in 32-bit mode but it's still giving me this message.
Interestingly, it does this every time I reset my Safari (which I do upon closing Safari), UNLESS I unclick the "Remove all website data" item box - then I don't get this weird shockwave player error message.
I would like to know either how to get rid of the error message (stop it from popping up) or how to download/install shockwave in case I need it.

I am having this issue whenever I go to Safari privacy preferences tab it pops up this same error window repeatedly, over and over, even if I don't acknowledge the first one... it just keeps adding the error window one on top of the other. (a little offset like opening multiple browser windows).
If I switch to a different application it may even keep popping them up keeping them on top all the time.
I navigated to Library/Internet Plug-ins and there was nothing in it.

Shockwave Player and Safari

I was on a web site and received the message that to view certain content I would need to install Shockwave Player. I went to the Adobe site downloaded and installed the mac version. Everything seemed to install properly. When I went back to the site that I needed the player for I got a pop up message saying I needed to launch Safari in 32 bit mode. The problem is that when I click ok on this message Safari freezes, I can't relaunch it or close the window. So I force quit Safari from the Apple menu. If I then go to the finder and set Safari to open in 32 bit it will launch and display the content on that site properly. However I don't really want to keep Safari in 32 but if I don't, any site I go to that requires the player will now freeze Safari requiring me to force quit again.
So I ran the Shockwave uninstaller after which I can go to those sites but of course can't view the content but at least Safari doesn't freeze up. However I realized that at least that one site had worked in Firefox prior to my installing and uninstalling the player. Of course now even Firefox won't display that content since I've uninstalled it telling me I need a plugin but when I click that it tells me an applicable plugin cannot be found and that I will need to manually install one. Of course that would take me back to where I was with Safari freezing up on those sites unless it's already in 32 bit mode. I'm using Safari 5.0.1 on OS 10.6.4 Is there a way to rectify this short of always running Safari in 32 bit?

It seems you're stuck: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/512/cpsid_51273.html
Further, "As of July 2010, Adobe has not announced future plans for 64-bit native Shockwave Players."
I'm not sure it's worth installing it again. If it were just a matter of launching Safari in 32 bit mode I might do it if it were something I really wanted to see but since Safari always freezes after that pop up message requiring me to force quit, it seems like too much of a hassle to me.

Can I download and save the shockwave player application for later installation on more than one PC

I would like to find a "setup.exe" file for the shockwave player and flash player (to begin with) so I can be sure fellow cowworkers all have the same versions installed on their own PC. This would make it more efficient to share files, explainations etceteras.
I was given this assignment after I installed virtual drives with Windows, on a few Mac PCs, and now I've been asked for more ways to streamline file shareing. I am attempting to convince the foremen, detailers, Crew managers & others to use Windows 8, as it can be synced with everyone's phones, tablets, androids & PCs. This would just be a beginning, mainly for demostration. I hope I haven't taken on an impossible task. Thank you in advance for any help offered.

What is Adobe Shockwave player and why do I need it?

Do I need Adobe Shockwave if I already have Adobe Flash?

Shockwave Player is a different player than Flash Player, but there are actually very few sites out there that use it.

Adobe Shockwave Player version 11.5.1.601 download problem

Whenever I try to download version 11.5.1.601it will go about one quarter ways through installation process then I get the message:
Error opening file for writing:
C:/WINDOWS/system32/Adobe/Director/np32dsw.dll
Click Abort to stop the installation,
Retry to try again, or
Ignore to skip this file
What does it mean? What do I have to do?

Try this
download http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/shockwave/default/english/win95nt/latest/Shockwave_In staller_Slim.exe (save to disk);
close all browser windows, then run the downloaded installer.
P.S. The Shockwave Player forum is here http://forums.adobe.com/community/webplayers/webplayers_shockwave

When I try to update the shockwave player it asks for authorisation tick box then it says close fifefox which closes the whole thing down and back to square one, any help please

shockwave keeps crashing all the time so I tried to up date the shockwave player from the add on section. The problem here is that you have to tick the I agree box which then tells you firefox is in conflick and you have to close it down which takes you back to square one.

save the installation file to your hard disk, then close FF and run the installation file.

Getting error message when trying to run Shockwave Player Setup

Shockwave Player won't work with my Firefox 2.0

I wonder if you can help me in the way of a "things to check"
list? I have downloaded and installed the Shockwave and Flash
players, however when I'm trying to play Shockwave Games it tells
me that there is no Shockwave Player plugin compatible with my
Browser. I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.2 on MS Windows XP Pro, and I'm
trying to play Couronne King at
http://www.king.com.
Thanks in advance - if you need to know more please
ask.

I blame Adobe; I blame Shockwave. In my view it's pro-IE,
pro-Microsoft. I Installed Firefox 2.0.0.1 and I have wrestled with
Shockwave to work Firefox as it does with IE. Waste of time and
effort so far.

Shockwave Player Not Working... PLEASE HELP!

Every single time I try to go into something like a game or
something else that requires the use of shockwave player, a screen
pops up that says somehting like 'you must restart your computer in
order for shockwave installation to be complete.' The thing is, I
have already downloaded and restarted the player. So each time I
get this message, I restart my computer and when I go back to where
I wanted to go, the same message keeps coming up over and over
again, no matter how many times I restart. What is going on here,
and how can I fix it?

Without any details no-one can help you.

How do I update my Shockwave player?

I run both Internet Explorer & Google Chrome as browsers. My system is asking me to update my adobe software --eg: Shockwave player. I am offered a choice of downloading an IE version or anon-IE version.
What should I do? Can I download both?
Please advise.

Yes you can download both , please update on both the browser because sometimes one brower will not be able to use the installed component for other browser.
Its good to update on both browser.
