Open fla from a flash exe

I have a .fla file that I will publish to an EXE that will
deliver various print and multimedia resources. I also have .fla
files that contain just a flv and play the video. There will be a
close button as well. What is the best way to launch that .fla file
from within my EXE? I'm using AS2.
Thanks

Having trouble opening .fla files in Flash MX

Hi,
Can anyone help me?
I'm using Flash MX, and when I get sent .fla files to edit I
get a "Unexpected file format" error or a "An unknow error has
occured while accessing ..<location of file.fla>"
Is this because I'm trying to edit/open .fla files that
aren't compatible with Flash MX?? Why is this the case?
If someone could shed some light on this that would be great
as all .fla's recently have been causging me problems.
Cheers.

sound like you try to opne flashMX2004 or flash8 foles in MX.
that wount work. An upgrade would help, or asking your source for
those flas to save then in MX format - which is not possible in
Flash 8 though.

Open folder from mac flash projector from a CD... not working

I know there are many posts out there about this, but for
some reason it's not working for me. I thought I was doing
everything right, so I'm hoping the smart people of this forum
could help.
objective:
Flash stand alone projector interface has links that open
folders and a website that is local on the cd.
What I've done
I wrote an applescript that opens the folder. I saved as an
application and checked the run and unchecked the others. named it
"openpdf"
I placed this file in the "fscommand" folder. This folder is
on the same level as my projector. In this folder I have some ini
and exe files for the pc side (which works by the way)
in flash I wrote on the button:
on (release) {
fscommand("exec", "openpdf");
}

Opening an app or exe from a flash projector

Hi everyone:
How can I open a exe application from a flash projector. I am
burning a project to a CD and I need (in AS3) to call out run an
EXE when the user clicks a button.
I tried using the code below, but what it does is it prompts
the user to either run or download. If the user clicks run, the
prompts them that EXE are dangerous...blah, blah....How can I make
the EXE run from the CD automatically when the user clicks on the
"search" button without any notices (like other CDs do)?
I cant find this anywhere. I know in AS2 you can use
fscommand, but I read on line that this is not supported anymore.
thank you for your help.
Rafael.

Ok, Flash continues to infuriate me!
I have removed the 'settings' file parameter from my
fscommand call to see if my projector would at least launch the
.exe file, as per the following code . . .
fscommand("exec", "Ripstation Lite.exe");
But nothing happened . . .
I also tried another Windows .exe to see if it would work and
again it failed to launch anything . . .
fscommand("exec", "C:\Windows\System32\calc.exe");
This .swf is wrapped by Zinc to produce a Projector .exe file
but yet it fails to launch either .exe file! Why is this!?!?

Exporting to a .swf or .fla from InDesign CS6 - issues with timeline when opened in Flash.

Hello,
Looking for help with exporting files for Flash. I have tried both .swf and fla exports from InDesign for the animations I have created. The .swf file will play fine in Flash player but I am having no luck using the .swf or .fla file in Flash. The .fla file will open in Flash but there is no time-line. I can import the .swf file into Flash, but again there is no timeline - all the graphics and elements are visible in the library.
- Is there a particular way the file(s) have to be exported from InDesign in order for them to appear with a time line in Flash?
- Are there particular do's and dont's when it comes to creating InDesign files that are going to be used as Flash animation?
Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Jamie

The page turning animations in an exported swf are accomplished via ActionScript—they are not timeline based tween animations. You might be able to decompile the swf and get to the code, but I've never tried it. Google SWF decompiler.
When you export to fla the animation ActionScript code is not included, so you lose the page turn animations. Each spread is saved as a MovieClip and the clips appear on sequential keyframes of the root timeline. With an fla it's up to you to write any animation code.

Opening external pdf from flash exe

I've looked around the site and I havent found anything
refering to this.
I'm creating an Interface in flash which will browse through
a list of pdfs. This interface will be published on a CD-ROM for
distribution.
How do I launch the pdfs directly from a link in the flash
exe? Since it is not playing within a browser I can't use getURL.
It's been years since I've had to do this, and the last time
I used the fsCommand to launch an exe file created in Director
which would in turn open the pdf file. I'm hoping there is a better
solution.
Thanks for reading this!

Flash CS3 quits unexpectedly when opening FLA

When I try to open FLA files, Flash just quits (disappears
instantly), and I can't open or work in any files unless I start
from scratch. I'm on Windows XP Pro, and on a pretty high-end
gaming PC, so it's not a hardware problem. I've been using Flash
for about 10 years and have never encountered such a major problem
with the application before. I upgraded from CS2 to CS3 a few
months ago and was using it with no problem until last week.
I have several projects that have fallen behind, and
I’m having no luck opening my FLA files. My FLA files are not
corrupt, because I’ve tried opening various FLA files that
I’ve created from over the past several years – same
problem.
I spoke to my colleagues, and some of them have had this
problem with other CS3 programs, like Photoshop and Illustrator -
when they called support, Adobe said this may be a permissions
issue. This was what they suggested when I called as well - which
makes me think that CS3 apps have some kind of issue/bug with
permissions. However, the users and permissions on my machine have
not changed since I was working with Flash before (I didn't have
this problem before last week). Adobe support also suggested that I
uninstall Flash and reinstall it (for some reason, this process
took about 1 hr), but that didn’t work either.
In the past, I've seen individual FLA files that have been
corrupted – but nothing like this, where Flash just quits all
together for no reason. I am desperate to work on my Flash projects
– anyone who has any suggestions, PLEASE let me know.
Thanks much

Hi Donna,
We've seen a few reports of this behaviour this week, however, we've not been able to reproduce. To help us troubleshoot, please provide the following information:
In the 'Flash Player quit unexpectedly' window, click REPORT. This will display some crash log information. Copy the entire contents of the crash report into a text file and name it something like 'crashlog.txt'.
Both of the log files listed in the Where do I find the Flash Player installation log on the Macintosh? tech note
Both of the files in ~/Library/Logs/Adobe_ADMLogs directory
Upload the crash log file and both log files using the the instructions here How to share a document
Thank you.

Blank page when opening .fla file in Adobe Flash CS6

I have converted the document from .swf to .fla, and wanna open it in Adobe Flash. I used CS6 after CC. I opened the .fla file, but it shows a blank page instead (see the link below). I don't know why does it happen. I noticed that in the Library tab in the right, the resources (images) still exist. Any hints that I could open and edit the file?

How can I access files from a flash drive that were previously saved using a Windows computer? When I attempt to open the file on MacBook Pro, it is asking to "convert file to"; I also have Microsoft Word installed on the Mac as well.

How can I access files from a flash drive that were previously saved using a Windows computer? When I attempt to open the file on MacBook Pro, it is asking to "convert file to"; none of the options I choose work. I also have Microsoft Office (with Word) installed on the Mac as well.

Format the external drive as FAT32 or ExFAT. Both computers will then be able to read and write to it.

I keep getting the message, "Windows cannot find 'c:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." I get it when I either try to open it from the Start menu or from the desktop icon.

I've just installed Firefox on my laptop and keep getting the message, "Windows cannot find 'c:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." I get this message whenever I either try to open it from the Start menu or from the desktop icon. I've never gotten it to work and even uninstalled it and then redownloaded it and still cannot get it to open. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Are you installing from the official site? http://www.mozilla.com/firefox
If you use Windows Explorer (My Computer) to check that path, is the Mozilla Firefox folder there? That is the normal installation location, but I think it's worth checking.
If the folder isn't there or firefox.exe is not in it, I wonder whether some other software might be interfering. You might want to run some supplemental security scans. These two tools are highly regarded:
