Preview is fine, upload is not

I am new to Flash ( I am using Flash 8 Pro for Macintosh),
and I have gone through the process of teaching myself to create a
small photo gallery by creating thumbnails that are buttons and
assigning each a small movie (basically a way of displaying a
larger jpg that fades in and stays until next button is pressed)
using the loadMovie action to load each swf file and assign it to
each button. The gallery works perfectly, it is not to big, it
works when I test movie and when I preview publish in flash, and
HTML. However, when I upload the swf file that is created (it also
works fine on its own) to my hosting company, only the thumbnails
appear, and the buttons do not work. Is anyone able to tell me why?
At first I thought that maybe the movie that gets loaded when
the button is pressed was somehow seprate from the rest and that is
why it doesn't show up, but why wouldn't it if it is contained in
the swf file and previews correctly? Please help. I am so
frustrated to have taught myself how to do this in a day and a
half, and now I can't get the thing uploaded. Thanks so
much...

The location of your html file is here:
http://www.courtneydavidson.com/id9.html
This folder location is the default location for files when
you use relative addressing..
http://www.courtneydavidson.com/
(the default location is where the html file is, not where
the swf file is)
The file id9.html loads your swf file here..
http://www.courtneydavidson.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/gallerytestlargeredo.s wf
But that doesn't change the default location for files.
Inside of gallerytestlargeredo.swf you have your buttons like
this one..
on (release)
loadMovieNum("KingsPalace.swf", 1);
It tries to load kingsPalace.swf from the default location
but it is not there.
If you were to put kingsPalace.swf in the same place as
gallerytestlargeredo.swf you would have to modify the button code
to be like
this..
on (release)
loadMovieNum("sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/KingsPalace.swf",
1);
That is a relative address.. relative to the default
location. It adds on to the default location of
http://www.courtneydavidson.com/
so that you end up with this:
http://www.courtneydavidson.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/KingsPalace.swf"
Here is where the buttons try to load from right now..
http://www.courtneydavidson.com/KingsPalace.swf
http://www.courtneydavidson.com/JamesGovan.swf
http://www.courtneydavidson.com/Ellis.swf
(but they are not there)
I could not locate those files on your website in the known
folder names.
You should probably either move the gallerytestlargeredo.swf
to the root directory of your site and change the id9.html to point
to
it, and upload the other swf files there too, or the other
way is to upload those other swf files to the same place where
gallerytestlargeredo.swf is located and fix all the button
links inside gallerytestredo.swf like this..
loadMovieNum("sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/Ellis.swf",
1);
luck,

    Greetings;
    This seems to an ongoing issue (see related discussion link).  We've been experiencing the same update lag since last Friday.  The new additions to the Collection appear and are accessible in both the iPad and iPhone applications, but even though they additions appear in "Quick View", the material doesn't appear in the Collection itself.  Apple is aware of the issue and is investigating.  All the best...

  • PDF not working, preview works fine

    Hi all,
    I'm having an issue where the preview works fine when tabbing through a form, but when I save it as a pdf it skips a radio group altogether or tabs to the 2nd option in the radio groups? Any ideas how to fix this?
    Thanks

  • How to get a gif file to loop in PE11 with MAC 10.6.8? 480x320x72 pix/in. saved layers for web, check animate,preview plays fine but saved file doesnt

    can't figure out why the gif file won't loop. Set up 5 photo frames 480x320pixels x 72pix/in in PE11, creating a layer for each. Each layer visible. Saved for web. Checked animate. The preview plays fine. But when I save the file and then click on the saved file to play, it re-opens the layers instead of playing the loop. The only SAVE option that shows up is "IMAGES ONLY"
    Using photoshop elements 11 on MAC 10.6.8. Either I'm setting this up wrong or is there a hidden setting I need to change?

    Thanks for the thought, Barbara B. Not sure if this counts, but emailed the file to myself [different email account, same computer] but it would not play as an email attachment. Any suggestions for a web upload where I can test your suggestion? Seems like there should be a different save option other than IMAGES ONLY but that is the only option I'm given.

  • Preview in browser - Firefox / File not found

    Specs:
    OS X 10.4.7
    Dreamweaver 8.0.2
    Firefox 1.5.0.1
    I (and my whole office) am having a major problem. We all
    work directly from files on our osx server. When working in
    Dreamweaver and trying to "Preview in browser" with Firefox 1.5 we
    get a "File not found" error. The problem seems to be stemming from
    the path lacking the "Volumes" part of the directory.
    For example:
    When I preview in Safari the path is shown as:
    file:///Volumes/Server_HD/Website_Folder/index.html (this
    works)
    But on Firefox or Mozilla I get:
    file:///Server_HD/Website_Folder/index.html (this does not
    work)
    This problem did not occur in previous versions of Firefox.
    Due do this problem, I have virtually eliminated Firefox as part of
    my workflow in favor of Safari. I would love to return to Firefox
    can anybody please help me!?

    Can you try again please, although not in a narrative? Just
    go to the
    ADVANCED tab on the Site Definition panel, and list the
    contents of the
    fields you see for Local, Remote, and Testing Categories (no
    need for the
    login info).

  • Folio preview works fine everywhere but....

    I have a page with a MSO. No matter where I proof it. Via my desktop via tools or via folio builder the MSO layout works as intended.
    But not when I preview on my iPad via Adobe Content Viewer. (last version and now the new version)
    I have deleted from Folio builder and reimported, scaled down the MSO and tried a new apporach, renamed file and reuploaded but still won't work as intended on iPad only. All other previews work just fine.
    Any ideas how to fix this? What might be causing the hang up?

    It worked at one point. It is auto play thru the states. Stop at last state. last state is the prior states all combined.
    I just created 3 seperate .jps of the orginal Indesign document with each MSO (1 .jpg for each different MSO state and placed each one of the .jps into the Indesign doc. and made all 3 into a MSO gain.
    I then uploaded via Folio builder. That Previewed just fine on the iPad Adobe Content Viewer. Worked as planned
    my problem is when I built the orginal layout in InDesign using text and image boxes etc. and not exporting the whole layout as a .jpg.
    That folio will Preview just fine on my Mac using all the Preview functions built into the InDesign program and folio builder. The 3 state MSO would not work once on the iPad.
    This work around makes it work on the iPad but I'll have to export as a .png so the text in the document will not be so rough around the edges.  Still wondering why it happened and how to fix.

  • "view content preview in thumbnails" option is not available in view settings for "finder" for one user

    "view content preview in thumbnails" option is not available in view settings for "finder" for one user

    I hope this discussion can be revived. I have the same problem. There seem to be quite a few Japanese sites that don't bother specifying their encoding. Perhaps they are older and from a time when it was not necessary to adhere to standards. Examples: http://www1.plala.or.jp/CUE/cave_yozawa.html, http://chigaku.web.fc2.com/saitama/sanchi/youzawa/youzawa.html. Happy to upload screenshots, but how?
    Is there a way to tell Safari what encoding to use if the web page fails to do that?

  • The preview in browser function is not working in DW CC 2014.1

    I just installed WAMP 2.5 on my local Win 8.1 machine.  All files transfer to the test server fine and all is working.  However, when I open pages from Dreamweaver in preview I get a URL not found error.  The pages open fine in all browsers  when I open them directly in Windows Explorer.  I changed the HOSTS file in windows as recommended in the WAMP 2.5 setup for using virtual hosts as follows:
    127.0.0.1       localhost
    127.0.0.1       project1
    127.0.0.1 sttest.dev
    ::1 localhost
    ::1 project1
    ::1 sttest.dev
    where sttest is my local website project folder for the test server.
    Any help or ideas would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    I figured our the problem.  In WAMP if you're using Virtual Hosts, you have to point to a folder under the www folder either in the WAMP main folder or other spot.  I had designated a Project1 localhost, but had failed to create a Project1 folder under the c:\WAMP\www folder.  So I set up a more specific folder as c:\WAMP\www\STTest1 as a project folder and then edited my HOSTS file to:
    127.0.0.1       localhost
    127.0.0.1       sttest1
    ::1 localhost
    ::1 sttest1
    Since I had previously had 127.0.0.1    Project1 statement in my HOSTS file but no Project1 folder, the Dreamweaver could not find the html page on my local server.   So for now, all is good.

  • Preview error message doc "can not be saved because it does not exist"

    I have had a long standing problem with Preview. I know it is odd but around closing time every day, two of my computers both running 10.6.8 get error message when trying to save a new document. The document will be open on my screen and when I go to save it I get the error message that the file can not be saved because it does not exist. Some background that may be relevent:
    The documents that I create all day long (for at least 6 years) are output from a 4D database. I generate a report from the db and it opens in Preview as a PDF file. All day long I have no issues with creating and saving these docs. Then around 4-4:30 when many people are getting ready to leave two of our computers (one iMac 3.06GHz Intel Core i3 and an older macMini) have this problem. All you have to do to fix it is quit Preview and regen the doc. Unfortunately we often lose a lot of work because of it. I've tried anticipating when it will happen and restart Preview before creating the new doc but that only works occasionally.
    I suspect that it has something to do with people logging out (I am usually the last to leave) and perhaps some shared application is effected. Everyone does have their own copy of Preview and we all use separate 4D clients. I have searched the internet many times. I have found some similar problems that people have had with this error but not related to my own. Unfortunately both Preview and "the file can not be saved because it does not exist" are very general terms that bring up all kinds of unrelated things.
    I was going to try to delete the Preview Prefs file and start again but I can not find a plist for preview or any other file that is clearly the prefs. Searched the internet for that too but did not find it.
    Does anyone have any ideas on this odd problem?
    Thanks for reading!
    Susan

    To answer your questions:
    Are you loading them by using Preview>File>Open, double clicking, or dragging the file? None of the above. I am loading them through 4D. I generate a report on 4D and it opens in Preview.
    When this happens can you Open another PDF from the same location? Yes, see details below.
    Are you loading these PDFs from the Server or another Mac? From the server. The file is created by a 4D client that resides on my disk but the 4D server which it references is on another computer. I am still shared to that computer and my connection to 4D has not changed as far as I can tell.
    I found today (details written in response to another question) that when this happens I can save the file to my own desktop but not to the server. It makes me think there may actually be something happening with my connection. I wonder does a server do any realigning (for lack of a better word) of connections as some connections are lost? While I had the document open (the one that I could not save to the server) I went to the server and opened a document that existed there. I saved the file back to the server with a different name. No problem, it worked just fine. Now I am really confused....
    1) A PDF file generated by 4D that has not ever been saved to the server can not be saved to the server via Preview around the time that other people are disconnecting from the server and shutting down their computers for the day. Quitting Preview and regenning the document fixes the problem.
    2) The same PDF file that can not be saved to the server can be saved to my own disk.
    3) Other files that are already existing on the server can be saved with a different name to the server at the same time as a new document can not.
    I wish I felt like I was getting closer to the answer...
    Thanks for thinking about it.

  • Trying to order my photobook. Assembly fine.Upload fails. 3 times. Tried "retry". Now can't cancel, can't close computer Very frustrated

    What do I do if upload fails for my photobook? now frozen - have hit retry, started then failed again, now whole system seems frozen - won't cancel, can't close computer as it says close iphoto first and can't close iphoto. Never had a problem with another type of photobook

    Force quit, launch iPhoto and preview your book to be sure it is ok and correct as the printed book will exactly match the preview - if it still will not upload then boot into Safe mode, preview again (safe mode has less fonts so things might change) and if it is good order while in safe mode

  • Role upload does not change the delta links

    Hi,
    We are using the Role upload functionality in the portal to upload BW roles by selecting the "Convert roles to worksets" and "Overwrite existing content" options.
    The newly created workset (corresponding to the uploaded role) is then copied and pasted as a delta link in another folder.
    We upload the BW role again whenever some changes are made to the original BW role (such as addition/deletion of reports).
    However, these changes are not getting reflected in the delta link (although the delta link dependency still exists).
    Does delta link work only for manual deletion/addition of portal content and the changes do not filter through using a role upload with overwrite?
    It is definitely not working for us using the role upload functionality and It seems that overwriting content using role upload does not impact the associated delta links.
    Any solution/workaround to this issue would be greatly appreciated.
