PLEASE help - Flash Catalyst Question

Does anyone know how to create a button in Flash Catalyst that will download a pdf to the users computer.
I have compleated my Portfolio website in Catalyst and this is the only thing stopping me from publishing.
Please help

To create a link to a PDF, just use the Go To Url interaction from the interactions panel. It does not allow for relative links (those like ../pdf/portfoilio.pdf), so you will need to full url path. You might also want the link to open in a new window.

PLEASE HELP flashing light and playbook doesn't switch on!!

Hello,
I have my tablet won't switch on and when I try to turn on, the red light and green light flashing 5 times. And then nothing. Unable to turn on.
I tried a reboot by pressing power + volume - and nothing!
I tried to update with BlackBerry Desktop Manager (latest version) and when the update reaches the end error message comes to me and it there was a problem: "A connection to the tablet Could not be ESTABLISHED. Please connect your tablet and try again. "
I also tried to charge it with a 2000mA charger for several hours and still nothing.
I no longer guarantee
Please help me, I do not know what to do.
thank you
sorry for my english

Same thing happened to me yesterday. After the error message, I plugged in the charger. It took quite a while but the tablet started charging. It reinstalled the update when it reached the 20% level. Another update error came up to change my setting. I checked my setting but didn't change anything and just reinstall update again which this time was a success. Hope this would help.

Use a BufferedImage where you draw the other images.
You have to know the size.
For example if the size is (50*50) for each image :
int width =50;
int height = 50;
BufferedImage bufIm = new BufferedImage(width*3,height*3,BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
Graphics gr = bufIm.createGraphics();
int k, j;
Toolkit tk = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
Image imTemp;
for (k = 0; k<3; k++) {
    for (j = 0; j<3; j++) {
        imTemp = tk.getImage(imageNames[k][j]);
        gr.drawImage(imTemp,width*k,height*j, this); // replace this by the Image observer you want (this if you are in a panel for example)
}After that bufIm contains the images as you want and you can paint it on a Graphics.

Please help me about question security because in my apple id no have for restart or chenge my answer

please help me about answer security question in my apple id because im forgot for my answer, in my apple id no have for change answer, tell me for this please because i love my iphone.
<Email Edited by Host>

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed, filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

watch this intro
http://images.templatemonster.com/screenshots/21000/21016.html
i have this intro. I open it in flash and play it. As soon as the Offbeat idea text goes away the background fades to black instead of staying consistent.

Urgent!! Please Help! Security Question!

I have forgotten the answers to my security questions (all three). As i made my Apple ID over 3 years ago, it did not ask me for a recovery e-mail adress. Is there any way i can reset the answers without the e-mail? Please Help!!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
ou should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

Please Help, Flash Player for Mac

I am running Mac OS X 10.7.5. Last night Facebook told me I MUST update to the newest version of Flash Player in order to upload multiple pics. I kept getting plug-in failure messages and then the message saying I need to update my version of Flash.
Problem is I have updated my version of Flash and the plug in still doesn't work. Please help, my business relies on my being able to upload multiple photos daily to social media. What is going on? I have read the forums, the work arounds posted on 4/16. Uninstalled, re-installed, etc. I am still getting flash plug in failures even on Adobe's site. What do I do?

No.
I am in the same boat. I cannot watch flash videos on the BBC website or on BBC iPlayer, although all other flash videos (YouTube for example) are fine.
For reasons that passeth all understanding, they work with the PPC version of Firefox, called TenFourFoxG5.app, once you have anabled plug-ins, as it does not natively support Flash.
You can download TenFourFoxG5 from here:
http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
Now for the intersting bit: TenFourFox, like Firefox, does not support most plug-ins. Unless you are prone to headaches (in which case don't) you can read about that here:
http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/PluginsNoLongerSupported
But there is a workaround!
Open TenFourFox and type in the address bar: about:config (no spaces) and click return. This gives you a warning that it might harm the application. Ignore that and click on 'I'll be careful, I promise' and you get the config file that you can edit - with great care.
Look/search (scroll down) for: tenfourfox.plugins.enabled
Set it to true. (Double click it to toggle it)
Now close TenFourFox, open it again, and Flash will now work, as it now uses the plug-ins that Safari has stored.
I am using Flash 10.1.102.64 in TenFourFox and it works just fine.

Please help--flash 9 wont download

I am slowly realizing that there are a lot of things that
require Flash Player 9. I have tried at least 15 times to install
this, but everytime it pops up the security box, i click install,
and the 'F' comes up with the spiral underneath. It goes away, the
security box reappears, i click install, and the little boz where
the 'F' was is empty, then it goes away, turning to quotation
marks. Why wont it work? i am on my acocunt with administrative
rights....please help! Thank you

first, if your not using firefox, got to mozilla.com and get
firefox. it the best browser there is and the add-ons that you can
get to enhance it are the bomb. Next time you come across something
that requires flash it will automaticlly download it.

PLEASE HELP-Flash Version 9.0

Everything was working fine this morning. I went to the
Playhouse disney.com website for my sons. It said I needed to

different plugin. It redirected me back to the same page for
downloading 9.0. I did the uninstall flash player. It said it
worked. I tried to install 9.0 again. Now, it said that I don't
have permission to access the installer. What do I do? If anyone
could please help me, I would really appreciate it!!!

Flash Catalyst question

I have imported my design from Fireworks into Flash Catalyst, here is my question.
I have two tabs which switches content on my page. Right now I have one state (page)
for tab nr 1 and another state for tab nr 2. But when I have tab 1 active and click a button,
then I want to make changes of the content that is visible when tab 2 is active. Is that
possible and if so, how can I achieve this?

Yes this is possible. There might a few solutions to it. One idea (untested), would be to wrap your tab 2 content in a custom component. then share this new component across both tab states. But, in state 1, set the visible of the content component to false. That should allow you to target elements within the content component. Then when you switch to state 2, make the visible of the content component to true.

HELP PLEASE HELP! urgent question with an easy answer!!!!

Hello;
I designed a JFrame game, that uses gif files as ImageIcons. The game works perfectly when I run it from console with the java.exe command.
However; now I want to create a wraparound and run the JFrame in the Internet Explorer from an applet. So I created a new file that extends JApplet; this new file creates a new object of the JFrame-game's class and show()'s it.
And I created an HTM file that runs the JApplet class. However, the internet explorer cannot open the applet because it has trouble loading the pictures (gif files). How can I load the pictures from my applet for my frame???
I dont want to change the Java security file. I just want to make the images accessible by my applet. I cannot use commands like setImage in my applet because my JFrame sets the Images.
(I repeat)My JApplet only invokes an object of my JFrame class and shows it.
PLEASE HELP PLEASE PLEASE..
Thanks..

OK; let me tell you the whole thing. My pictures are in the same folder for sure.
My JFrame reads pictures and assigns JButtons pictures. when I run the frame there are 16 buttons with the same picture, and when I click the buttons there is a listener in the JFrame that changes the pictures. Simply put, the JFrame has no trouble finding and loading the pictures.
Then I created a JApplet as follows:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class MemoryApplet extends JApplet
public void init ()
GameFrame ce = new GameFrame ();
ce.show ();
GameFrame is the name of the JFrame class. Then when I try to open the applet using IE, it gives the following error:
Exception: java.security.AccessControlException: (javax.io.FilePermission back.gif read)
back.gif is one of the gif files that are used in GameFrame

I have a dell axim x50. I have the jad and jar files. How can I make my application work on the PDA??
I've simulated with toolkit, and such.
Please Please help ><

The act of getting the jar from a pc to the device is called "provisioning"
Some devices let you do this over bluetooth or IR and many others only allow it over http.
I used to use some free web midlet hosting sites but the ones i used have been shut down now. (do a search on the net for "Free Midlet Hosting")
These days i set up a web server on my development machine and then just use the phones wap browser to download the program.
