Placing a Flash demo in Keynote

I need to place an interactive Flash demo into Keynote, but there does not seem to be any way of doing this. In addition, I tried to add Flash movies as described by Apple (Apple menu > System Preferences, click QuickTime, click Advanced, select Enable Flash), but in QT version 7.5 there is no "Enable Flash" button--just "Enable kiosk mode" and "Show legacy encoders".
Any suggestions?

huff and puff!!!! Glad to have found this thread after trying to do something I did before (insert Flash file) and now can't do ... one wonders why someone hasn't checked/updated the Help file 'cos that says - as above - that you can do it ... and why have they stopped supporting Flash in Keynote (someone didn't want to pay a licence fee)? Not good. Bad move. Who to shoot?

Usually there is no need to install a flash player to view a flash presentation in a website as browsers altready have support for them. However if the flash needs some advanced features then the website will prompt for downloading the required version.
In your case you may try to uninstall the software and then try to open the URL to view the demo. If it doesnot works you may download the latest version and get certain other information from this link

If nothing works then you can try using a diffrent browser (eg Firefox or Opera if you are using IE).

Insert Flash 6_and_over in Keynote 3.0

I want to insert flash animation in my presentation within the Keynote application ! I've already activate the Flash content in Quicktime... is doesn't work !!!
I heard that quicktime just run the flash 5 files and older versions. Is it possible to run flash 6,7,8,9 and others ??
If it's not possible, is there a way to convert my swf files in flash 5 files ?
Thanks!

Welcome to the discussions, gabriel_parent.
You would have to own a copy of Macromedia Flash in order to open those files and resave as the older version.

How can I submit a flash demo for the Flash-facebook-fan-page ?

Hello !
Can someone tell me where it's possible to submit a demo for the flash-facebook-page ?
I only find a link to submit an Air-mobile demo (and actually don't understand why because I was not on the Adobe Air facebook page).
Thank you !
Tom

I don't know a lot about this subject but thought I'd give it a shot to answer. You can use Adobe Encore to create menu systems for your DVD title screen. As far as Flash is concerned I think you can import your animations into Encore's menu system though I'm not exactly sure how. If you want to just make an animation that will be played back without interactivity you would just export your Flash animation as a Quicktime MOV file and import it into After Effects for further editing and finishing. Once you render your mp4 (h.264) from AE you can bring this into Encore to author for your DVD.

Importing Flash (.swf) to Keynote

Hi all,
I am working in Keynote '08 (4.0.2) and have Quicktime 7.4.1 (14) installed. I need to import a Flash (.swf) file and play it in Keynote. Even though the online help says this: "You can also add video or Flash movies that play within a slide. For Flash to work with QuickTime 7.1.3 and later, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click QuickTime, click Advanced, and select Enable Flash." Keynote 4.0.2 does not accept .swf files (they are grayed out) and Quicktime 7.4.1 cannot play an .swf (This is not a movie file). Should I unistall QT 7.4.1 and install a previous QT version? Can Apple fix this problem? Any other suggestions? Thanks

Thanks for your quick response. Perian helps with Flash video but as far as I can tell it does not help with swf format. I have an actionscript loaded flash file that cannot be converted to MPEG-4. If you are indeed correct and Apple no longer supports swf with QT then I want my money back for iWork. It clearly states in their manual/help that users can import swf files and play them in Keynote. What a rip-off.
Is there a way to unistall QT 7.4.5?
Thanks.

Flash exported from Keynote and embeded in iWeb page not working in IE

using the "html snippet" widget and swfobeject code generated here: http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?page=wizard I placed a swf file generated by Keynote in an iWeb page.
It seems to work fine except for folks using IE in Windows. They get to the first page, but the "Next" link doesn't work. My problem page address is here: http://shortpoem.org/readings/Selected_Poems.html
Can anyone help me see what needs to change?
This is the generated code (I also tried using the html generated by Keynote and had the same problem):
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.jeroenwijering.com/embed/swfobject.js"></script>
This text will be replaced
<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject('http://shortpoem.org/readings/SelectedPoemsfiles/thoughts.swf','mpl','800','600','8');
so.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
so.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
so.addVariable('height','600');
so.addVariable('width','800');
so.addVariable('file','/upload/player.flv');
so.write('player');
</script>

The code in your first post is not what you pasted in the Snippet.
http://shortpoem.org/readings//SelectedPoems_files/widget0markup.html
You simply exclude IE users.
Have a look here for some inspiration:

http://web.mac.com/wyodor/Ajax/

And here:

It's the nested object code you need.

Technical Flash problem in Keynote

Hello!
I have a question concerning the development of Flash files to use in Keynote.
Whenever I use a flash movie that has another flash movie embedded in it the following occurs: the two movies play together at first, but revisiting the slide causes the top level movie to play, but not the embedded movie. Thus, if I use the Presenter display the movie plays correctly in it, but not when that slide is moved onto the main screen (i.e. the second time the movie is called on).
I'm using he embedded movies to mirror several actions, so flattening everything would take too long to be considered an option. I expect it will involve modifying the Flash files though. Has anyone else found a solution to this or something similar?
I'm using Keynote 3, and files are Flash 4 or 5 files. (5 it think. But it's a problem for either.)
If you're having trouble visualizing the problem you can download the keynote file here and the flash files here (fla and swf).
Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

I remember trying to take advantage of this at one point. I figured it the movie WAS essentially being "remembered" as playing them maybe I could use a music track loaded into an .swf to play for the entire presentation. Didn't quite work out that way, though.
I think the problem is with the way QuickTime handles those movies... it doesn't like the independent time track and doesn't know what to do with it. It would be cool if something like this could be done with Quartz Composer, but I don't know enough about it to make anything that complex.

Can I develop fla files in flash demo and have my friend...

Would it be legal for me to develop fla files with the demo version of Adobe Flash CS5 and have my friend, who owns a full copy of flash pro, to export them to swf? This would be much like using the developer version of ColdFusion.

Do you see something that would indicate you cannot make full use of the trial? You'd have to research the terms and conditions of use, but I don't believe there are any restrictions on the purpose of use of trial versions. And I doubt there is any way to distinguish a trial version swf from a paid version swf.
Logically, if commercial use of what you create with the trial version is illegal, then having your friend publish what you created using the trial version for commercial purposes would still be illegal. But I simply don't think it is illegal.
If you remain skeptical, then your safest bet is to go to the source and ask Adobe directly.

How to convert a flash demo (either FLA or SWF) into FLV file

I first converted the FLA file into AVI file by using the option of export movie in my flash software. But the ouput was not good, the quality of the demo was hit. The animations looked shaky. Then I tried converting the same file into QT format but as I use Flash 8 I was told to change the version in the publish settings to either Flash 5 or a lower version which did not support the actionscript and the animations that my file had. My file occupies 13,320 frames which makes the FLA and the SWF file quite heavy. Is there any way in which I can convert my demo to FLV format without using a third party software and just use Adobe Flash and Adobe Flash Video Encoder to do the same?

I wanted to know how can the conversion be made without using any tool apart from Quick Time movie player and Adobe Video Encoder.
Though I managed to make the FLV file I discovered that the background music was not playing.
I want a solution through which I can make the FLV using only Quick Time player and Adobe Video Encoder and not lose the background music and the voice-overs that exist in my file.

Flash demo will not work

I have installed a demo version of Flash CS3 onto my new PC laptop, everytime I try to run it I get a message that says 'A problem was encountered while trying to load the trial period'. Technical support will not provide tech assistance and have advised me to post here. Not a great advert for Adobe products and I haven't even tried FlashCS yet. Please could someone help?

lol, great tech support is right. (and your forum name is going to raise some eyebrows.)
use google to search for a solution. copy and paste some of that error message into google and see if someone with the same problem has posted a solution.
(most likely you previously installed an adobe product trial, and something is still lingering on your computer.)

Flash Transitions in Keynote 3

I am trying to get my transition effects to export with my slide show, but it keeps giving me an error at the time of export. It does create the flash file but no transition effects are present. Is there an issue here?
Thank you

When you say the copy of your slides are squished, you mean the text on the slide? Is the text too short or too thin? If it's difficult to read or blurry, you may need to make the type larger before compressing. If it's changed it's "look" then we may need to take another look at your export settings.
You can't stop Flash from looping that I know of. There may be a Keynote setting for looping that might prevent it, but I don't have access to my Mac right now.
The music probably can't sound better because the version of Flash that Apple supports as export only used lower quality audio. Also, if your settings in Keynote for the delay on the slides aren't being adhered to in the export, that could be another issue that might not be able to be resolved.

Flash files in keynote?

Hello all,
I am using two programs on my MAC, Keynote and Flash (both
programs are fairly new to me) for a conference presentation that
is 1365 x 768. I want to use a 45 second animation that I created
in flash and import it into Keynote however, the .mov exported from
flash is way too large and I am getting a little stutter. My movie
is fairly simple, no action script but does use filters from time
to time. When I export the Flash MX files (also have tried with
CS3) to a .swf it is about 10 mb. When I export the Flash file to a
.mov file, it is about 100 mb. I have played with the different
settings but if I export using fore example, the H.264 setting,
then the type looks pixelated. Can anyone advise on export settings
that I could use to maintain the quality of the type while
compressing the video so it is not so huge? Or is there a program
that can convert .swf to .mov for mac? I have tried a couple like
"Flash Video Converter" but it will not convert a .swf as big as
the one I created.
Help!
Christina

Your problem isn't with Keynote, it's with QuickTime. Keynote only supports media that QuickTime supports. If it doesn't play in the QuickTime player, it won't play in Keynote...but here's the part you won't like...QuickTime only supports Flash 5 or older, so my guess is that those files you have use a newer version.

Using Flash files in Keynote

Ive started working with keynote and want to add some flash files to the presentation. I read that keynote supports importing of flash files.. but new to flash..and how it all works.
I found a website.. istockphoto.com that you can download some cool flash animations etc... it says that i must have macromedia flash or compatible program to edit the file.. i dont want to edit.. just want to use the royalty free flash file animation in my keynote presentation. When i download it. it appears as a blank sheet icon on my desktop with a flash extention, and if i try to drag it to my keynote presentation.. there is nothing.. does nothing...
Frustrated since there are some cool flash file animations to download that would be great in a presnetation.. but im clueless on what im doing if im doing it rigth.. have the right software etc. and all i want to do is download the file and use it.. as is.. not editing etc.
any suggestions??? help!!!!!
