Problem in displaying Flash works (only in IE)

Hi,
we have problem in displaying the flash animations, as it
shows a box like surrounding, after when we double click it, it
gets activated. We face this problem only in IE and not in any
other browsers. We want to know the technical reason for this
problem and is that anything because of virus, or browser version
conflicts....etc., please let us know the reason and solution as
soon as possible.

There are hundreds of new and magazine and online articles on
this over the
last couple of months .. and similar numbers of forum posts
here. Its a
very hot topic.
A quick search in Google or on these forums would have turned
up a wealth of
information. Maybe you should try that? Try looking for the
phrase "Click
to activate and use this control" - close to 25000 web pages
talking about
it.
If you can't be bothered to do so .. try looking at this site
http://activecontent.blogspot.com/
... look at the links articles at the
bottom of the page .. like this one

Problem in displaying flash in FireFox

Hi all,
I have problem in displaying flash in FireFox 2.0. but it
works very fine in IE.
any one please help me....
Shanthi.

I came across this post since I too have the same problem. I
had a current firefox version installed (9.0.28.0) and downloaded
and installed the newest version (9.0.45.0) and when I get to a web
site with flash content, I see the 'loading' bars, but then I get a
black screen while the contents audio is playing.

Problem with displaying flash file in UIX page

Hi everybody
I would like to use a flash file (.swf file) above all my UIX pages.
I want to put falsh file in the UIX template file (.uit file) so that
when I create pages based on template, it will be shown on the top of all pages .
Does anybody know if there is a solution for doing this ?
Which UIX tags can be used ?
Best Regards
Navid

Add tht html namespace like
<templateDefinition xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/ui" xmlns:ui="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/ui" xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"
targetNamespace="http://www.example.org"
Then you can add you flash contents at appropriate place.
Like
<html:OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0"
WIDTH="100%" HEIGHT="100%">
<html:PARAM NAME="movie" VALUE="TLT-intro4.swf"></html:PARAM>
<html:PARAM NAME="quality" VALUE="medium"></html:PARAM>
<html:PARAM NAME="bgcolor" VALUE="#000000"> </html:PARAM>
<html:EMBED src="TLT-intro4.swf" quality="medium"
bgcolor="#000000" WIDTH="100"
HEIGHT="100"
TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash">
</html:EMBED>
</html:OBJECT>
So you should get your flash working that way. Rest everything is same as getting it work in html.

Problems sharing internet connection - works only one way...

hey all,
i'm having a problem sharing my internet connection between our "new" iBook G4 and "old" iMac G5. (both machines are running 10.4.10.) i've seen several posts here that seem related, but no answers that have worked in my case.
here's the gist:
ideally, i'd like share the internet connection from the iMac (from our cable modem) to the iBook over the airport. so, i've set up the iMac to do this under "sharing" in system preferences. i then set up the iBook to connect to this new wireless network. under "network status", it says the iBook is connected to the iMac's network, but that the iBook doesn't have its own IP address, so it can't connect to the internet.
oddly, when i reverse the process - i.e. plug the modem into the iBook and share the connection over the airport to the iMac - it works fine. the iMac gets its own IP address and can see the internet.
a friend suggests that somehow the iBook is set up to distribute IP addresses as a router, but the iMac isn't. fine. but, i don't know how to make changes to that function.
any thoughts?

well, it's taken all day - many, many attempts. but i've finally found something that worked. the answer was burried in the middle of this guy's blog page:
http://www.tuaw.com/2007/03/26/how-to-using-your-mac-as-a-nat-router/
he says:
"I've turned off DHCP and set the address to: 192.168.0.1 and the subnet to 255.255.255.192 In making these choices I was following a hint that appeared at macOSXhints back in 2002. Once this is done I went back to the Internet tab of Sharing Preference Pane, select en4 and start it.
"Now on my other device (in this case a Xbox 360) I set it up as follows:
"IP address: 192.168.0.2 subnet: 255.255.255.192 (this is the same subnet of the en4 USB interface, above) gateway/router: 192.168.0.1 (this is the address of the en4 interface) DNS: 192.168.2.1
"(here's where the voodoo comes in, I have no idea why this DNS setting works. You would think it should be 192.168.0.1, or even the DNS server of my ISP, but those simply do not work. I suspect that it has something to do with sharing over Airport as well).
"I've also found that this will only work properly if Internet Sharing is active for my Airport interface. If I turn off the Airport interface (en1), the wired interface (en4) also dies. With these settings in place, everything seems to work properly. Keep in mind you may also need to enable certain services (which will vary with your application) in the Services tab of the Sharing Pane:"
i wasn't trying to solve quite the same problem he was, but by manually inputting the IP addresses, etc, that he did, as well as randomly enabling other "sharing" options (FTP access, etc) which seemed unrelated to internet sharing, it finally worked.
can anyone explain what this is about? it all seems pretty cryptic to me. i'm not sure what i even did...
no complaints, but it would be interesting to know.
thanks!

Flash not working only in camera apps on iPhone 5 flashlight apps work

Led flash works only in flashlight apps but doesn't work on camera app

I have this same problem. I have tried using the flash in other apps and some work and some don't. I've restored the phone too and it's still happening.

Working only on weekends (???)

Hi, I have a very unusual problem. My flash player only works from Friday to Sunday. It starts working at exactly 0.00 on Friday and it stops at exactly 0.00 on Sunday. I don't know if that is actually a Flash problem, but I don't know where else to turn on. From Sunday to Thursday, Youtube, online games, nothing works ... When I right-click Youtube videos, it says Movie not loaded, but on weekends everything works fine. Or when I download programs that need Flash to work properly, it says that Flash is not installed. I install it again, and it still says it's not installed. I don't know what is going on.
When asking questions or reporting Flash Player problems, please do:
specify your operating system (including 32bit or 64bit): Windows Vista (I don't know the bit number)
specify your web browser and version (including 32bit or 64bit); Opera, version 11.01 (I don't know about the bit number)
specify your Flash Player version (check http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html); The latest one

This is a user to user forum, so there is not much we can do for you, sorry?

Flash works fine – but causes Safari to crash!

Hi.
I've searched a bit, and can't seem to find this exact issue.
I'm running the latest Safari on 10.6.1, and for the last ten days or so, certain websites have been crashing Safari. I cannot recall installing anything new that caused it, although I did install ClickToFlash a few weeks prior to this happening.
This seems to be different than the run-of-the-mill 'Flash crashed Safari' problem, in that Flash works fine. I can use YouTube, I can see other videos (Vimeo, etc.,) I can play games…
What does crash Safari are certain websites, most noticeably for me is by bank's login page. I'll enter my name and password, and bam… hang. Uninstall Flash, and the website works perfectly.
I've tried: Uninstall and reinstall of Flash (with permission repairs each time); deleting preferences; clearing caches; made a new user account (still happened).
A couple of additional notes:
• The same thing happened in Chrome; so I imagine this is a Flash problem, not a Safari problem. Still, it's a strange problem in that Flash works fine – something else is triggering it.
• This may help narrow it down: After deleting the preferences, Safari defaults back to the 'welcome to Safari page ( http://www.apple.com/safari/welcome/ ). This page, too, crashes when Youtube is installed.
Any suggestions?

**Are you running Snow Leoaprd or Leopard? You changed your profile....
Try uninstalling and reinstalling a new copy of flash just in case. Adobe can be notorious for corrupted downloads.

Make sure and repair disk permissions after the installation.
Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.
Might want to try Mac maintenance...
Mac OS X: How to force background maintenance tasks (logs and temporary items)
As I suggested previously, make sure there aren't any Safari add ons causing a conflict.

Problem with displaying text in flash player

I have flash player 10.2.152.26 and opera 11.01 installed.
The problem is that text in flash is diplayed in an awful way like this:
http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/6918/alljo.png
And when i choose "settings" the window appears, but it doesn't react when I click on it.
Can anyone help, please?

Thanks for answering
So you have IE8 and the hardware acceleration was able to be UNchecked and FP(Flash Player) is working properly with IE.
In IE flash works fine with any settings.
When I unchecked "Hardware acceleration" checbox in IE it also became unchecked in opera, but nothing changed in opera's behavior.
When you don't use the Aero it's displayed correctly but the settings do not work. What settings are you referring to?
It's about flash settings in Opera
With aero: http://img443.imageshack.us/i/settingsh.png/
Without aero: http://img816.imageshack.us/i/settingswoaero.png/
In both cases the settings dialog is displayed like in the screenshots above, but when I click on checkbox/tabs/'close' button in it nothing happens. I can't change any settings or close it (dialog disappers only after reloading page)
Just to sum up everything mentioned above:
- In IE flash works fine regardless of any settings
- In Opera text is displayed wrong when using windows aero, and without aero theme it's displayed correct
- I didn't manage to make settings dialog work in Opera
- When I change some flash settings in IE, they are also changed in Opera
Now Flash Player works thru the browser, do you have perhaps have an addon that is conflicting? What Anti-Virus do you have Installed? Any addons of that?
I have 7 extensions installed in Opera, I've disabled all of them, but nothing changed.
I use Kaspersky Internet Security 2011, disabling it also gives nothing.

Flash Player works only for Local Admins

Hi!
We have about 40 computers in our organisation with the same problem: Since few weeks the Adobe Flash Player (ActiveX) works only, when the user has administrative privileges. If a normal user wants to watch youtube-films or other flash objects, there will only appear a message that (a new) Adobe flash player must be installed to view the content (or so). It looks like there is no Adobe Flash player installed. But if the user is a local admin, everything works fine - on the same computer.
Under Software Adobe Flash Player is displayed as installed.
We have WinXP Professional SP2/SP3 32bit running on 4-year-old Maxdata computers. And few new computers (also WinXP Professional SP2/SP3 32bit)
Confusing: There are few computers where flash works for everyone! It seems, that especially the computers that are new don't have this problem.
I've tested everything: Using the MSI-file, using the EXE-file. Uninstalling the MSI, uninstalling the EXE. Using Version 14, 16 and now 26. Uninstalling everything by the offical Adobe flash player uninstaller. Installing the software as administrator, installing the software via GPO. I've deleted system32/macromed/flash. I've used Microsoft subinacl - with the offical adobe reset_fp10.cmd. I edited system32/macromed/flash so that everybody has write rights on this folder.
But nothing works. It's always the same: Videos in the IE are only shown for admins.
And now, I've no idea, what else I could do?!
Anyone else?

Flash not displaying correctly for only one web site

In the last 3 or 4 days I seem to have problems with the flash content of one single web site not displaying correctly from my laptop. I have the same problem from both IE (version7.0.5730.11) and from FF (3.5.8). The site works fine from my desktop system so it's not the site specifically. The site (www.transparent.com/wotd/today/spanish.htm) has an embeded flash segment that does not display correctly and thus I can't click on two of the embedded buttons. It also does not display the background pattern for the flash. I'm running flash 10.0.45.2 based upon right clicking from within the embedded flash which takes me to the Adobe page with my version info. The Adobe page seems to display fine.
As far as I know I'm not having problems with another instance of flash - only this site.
Any thoughts on how to diagnose the problem? I've not added any new programs since this website stopped working but do have some background "tune up" programs that run. I'm assuming some settings are out of wack but don't know where to start looking. Any help folks woulc provide would be appreicated.

Well, that is hard to tell. Like I said the website may have updated their technology. Just because it works with the Desktop, doesn't mean there is not a reason that the laptop might not have a problem. You have 2 different systems and
most likely different configurations.
You may want to check Tools and in the add ons for both, look for Shockwave Flash Object...ActiveX Control..Flash10e.ocx should be installed and enabled.
Also for each check C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash Right click the Flash folder and make sure for IE that the files are vs 10.0.45.2 by checking the properties.
If you have the correct Flash files and the correct SWO then, some other cause would be looked at.
It has been my experience to not "assume", but verify:-)

External display - maximum resolution only works in safe mode on MBP

I'm having an issue with an external display connected to a 2012 non-retina MacbookPro 15" i7 running 10.9. Monitor is Dell U2713HM, which has a maximum resolution of 2560x1440, and is connected via a Mini-Dipslayport to Displayport cord.
My setup has been working great for over a year, where while at my office I use the macbook closed in "clamshell mode" with the Dell monitor being the only display in use, running at 2560x1440. However today when I came into my office and connected to the dispay as usual, the resolution on the Dell was noticably scaled. System preferences is showing it running Scaled at 1080p, and when I select Best for Display it stretches to a very wide and distorted resolution. I can hold alt and click the Scaled button to display additional resolutions, however the maximum resolution listed is 1600x1200. Same problem regardless of clamshell, mirror, or extended desktop modes.
I've been trying to track down the problem, and have run though the usual procedures: restart, shutdown, reset PRAM, reset SMC, check cord connections, verify disk, repair disk permissions - all to no avail. However when I boot in safe mode the display runs as it should at 2560x1440 without issue, which lets me know its not a problem with the cord or connectioin, but rather something on the OS / GPU side.
I can't for the life of me figure out what is causing the issue. Considering its been working fine for quite some time, and I've made no unusual changes to the MBP in the past 48 hours when the display was working properly, I'm not really sure where to go from here. Hoping to not have to migrate to a new user or repartion my HDD.
Any suggestions on possible solutions?
Thanks.

I stumbled upon a fix. Still not sure what caused the issue in the first place, but for anyone having the same issue, the display override script contained on the site below seems to have fixed the issue.

Sound doesn't work(only in firefox). why? sound doesn't work(only in firefox). why? (adobe flash player doesn't work even thought it's installed)

sound doesn't work (only in firefox). adobe flash player doesn't work correctly, thought it's installed. can't solve the problem. i need Sound.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== don't know

What does the Adobe test page say?
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

Cinema HD Display not working - flashing lights

Hi
Ii have two 23" cinema HD displays on the mac listed below. they have worked fine for ages, but today i turned on and one of the displays did not come on, instead the power light flashed periodically with a long pause then a short flash, long flash and short flash.
i have searched for solutions and i found this article for LCD displays:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2811
which stated that this kind of flash means the power adapter isnt working, but i tried swapping the adapted/power cord with the other display without luck.
this other article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA40898?viewlocale=en_US
which states it may be the backlight, but i wanted to try here to see if there was any other potential solutions, if not whats my best bet with getting it resolved?
things ive tried:
i tryed the problem display on it's own to make sure it wasnt a problem with having dual screens, it still didnt work.
I tryed swapping the power adapter, the adapter seemed to work fine with the working monitor, and the other one didnt help with the faulty display.
I tryed both display sockets in the back of the mac to make sure the connection to the mac wasnt the problem.
i thought the cable which runs to the display to the power adapter may be worth trying to swap, but while i thought this was removable i couldnt seem to disconnect it from the back of the display and didnt want to pull too hard incase i broke it is it fixed?

I had the same issue and appreciate your links, thanks. However the indication (short-long-short) was not accurate. I switched adapter with no luck, but when I switched to another 23" Cinema Display it worked fine as in your experience.
There has to bee something else wrong with our monitors. I was lucky, we had two others standing around so I'm all set.
I have no other information that might help you, sorry.

Flash Player works only on some sites

Hey, ever since I've installed the new Flash 10.1 Flash has only worked on some sites. Good example is Youtube where it
works and then again on Zero Punctuation site it doesn't work. This only happens if my user account is standard user. If I switch it to Admin account (the rights, I don't switch to a different account totally) then Flash works on all sites. Why does Flash require Admin account on this computer to work properly with 10.1?
EDIT: Forgot to mention that Flash 10.1 works fine with Standard account on my laptop.'
2nd EDIT: Windows 7 with Internet Explorer 8 btw. Forgot to mention that too

Hey.
I'm basing this on currently loaded IE addons. My desktop has more running atm. I can list them: Java Plugin 2 SSV helper, Windows Media Player, XML DOM Document 6.0, Free Threaded XML DOM Document, XSL Template 6.0 and Windows Live Sign-In Helper alongside with Flash. Laptop has only Windows Live Sign-in Helper on with Flash. The java is disabled and rest are from Microsoft and are well, needed to display XML sites I guess
I have Microsoft Security Essentials with just Windows Firewall on both computers. And I just meant that probably some weird security setting in flash or IE since something, like I said, seems to be partially blocking flash from different domain. For example, I know that a site "istartedsomething" has a video that is linked from Youtube. It doesn't work in that site but everything works just fine in Youtube.
I thought of that too first, that the websites haven't managed to update, but for some reason they do work on my laptop which has same flash installed.
On sidenote, for example http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html does work on my laptop but doesn't work on this desktop while http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ works on both.
Whew, wall of text done

Flash Player Only Works Locally

Im using this tutorial to create a flash player that works
for Flash Player 6 & 7.
http://www.communitymx.com/content/article.cfm?cid=12EBE
It works great when I test it locally but not after its been
uploaded. I've tried local and absolute url's, again both work only
locally. Funny thing is I had bought a third party component for
this and it did the same thing. I thought there was something wrong
with the component.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
