Problem viewing animation in 3.0

This is a total newbie question but I would appreciate any insight.  I have Adobe Design Premium for Windows.  I'm in a class that we just began using Flash this week so I'm sure there's a simple solution to my problem, but I can't find it through searching.
When I start a new file or load one from the disk that came with my textbook and it's done in ActionScript 3.0, the animations won't appear on the stage.  No matter what I draw, it doesn't show up.  I can do just fine in the 2.0 though.
Is there some setting that I need to tweak or any ideas as to why this would happen?  Is something wrong with my computer, etc?
Thanks for any ideas!

  • Problems viewing 1080i/60 .mov files

    I am having problems viewing 1080i/60 .mov files. When I open the file, it shows all white. I have exported some HD footage shot on my HVX 200. I am using FCP 5.0.4. I also have created some animated clips from Vue 6 Infinite and it does the same thing.
    I have Quicktime Pro 7.1.5
    does anyone have any suggestions on what to do, or what I need to download in order to have this work?
    Thanks

    Export from Final Cut using the Apple Intermediate codec to view in QuickTime.
    You've probably exported using an HDV codec only used by Final Cut.

  • Viewing Animated GIF files in Preview

    Hello...
    I'm trying to figure out why I cannot view animated GIF files within Preview. When I search within Preview's help I get this...
    *1. Open the animated GIF file in Preview.*
    *2. If the window's drawer isn't already visible, choose View > Drawer.*
    *The drawer contains a thumbnail image for the animated GIF. The number of frames in the animation appears in the lower-right corner.*
    *3. Click the triangle beside the thumbnail image.*
    *Preview shows all the frames in the animated GIF. When you click a frame, the animation stops and Preview displays that frame.*
    Now at the end of number 3 it states that "the animation stops", so according to that statment Preview should be "playing" the animation until I click a certain frame to stop it. Well mine doesn't do this, SO what's going on?
    Oh, my OS is v10.4.10 and Preview is v3.0.9(409).
    Thanks!

    Preview in Panther did play animated gifs, although it was a bit clunky at it. Evidently they intended to fix this in Tiger, but instead they ended up breaking it completely. To play an animated gif you now need to do so in a browser, such as Safari. Preview no longer plays them at all.

  • Problem with animated .gif

    I have a problem with animated gifs. So if I set a animated gif as background and a button is over it as in the example below, then everytime the animation goes on the button disappears until I go over it with the mouse. So what can I do to solve this?
    import java.awt.Color;
    import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
    import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
    import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
    import javax.swing.JButton;
    import javax.swing.JFrame;
    import javax.swing.JLabel;
    public class FrameBackImage {
              public static void main(String args []){
                   final JFrame frame = new JFrame("Frame");
                   frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
                   frame.setSize(400, 400);
                   frame.setResizable(false);
                   frame.setLayout(null);
                   java.net.URL imageURL = ImageApp.class.getResource("animatedw.gif");
                   ImageIcon imageIcon = new ImageIcon(imageURL);
                 final JLabel label = new JLabel(imageIcon);
                 label.setBounds(0,0 , 400, 400);
                 frame.getLayeredPane().add(label);
                 JButton button = new JButton ("Exit");
                 button.setBounds(200, 129, 60, 60);
                 button.setBackground(Color.black);
                 button.setForeground(Color.white);
                 frame.add(button);
                 button.addActionListener(
                 new ActionListener(){
                        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {
                             System.exit(0);
                 frame.validate();
                  frame.setVisible(true);
    }

    In the future, Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.
    Your usage of the getLayeredPane() method is something I've never seen before, so I don't know if thats the problem or not.
    How to display a "background image" is asked all the time in the Swing forum. So to familiarize yourself with the forum you can try searching the Swing forum. Using the keywords I highlighted would be a good place to start.

  • Viewing animated GIF's in Bridge

    Apparently this has been an issue for a while and I don't understand why it hasn't been fixed yet, but please Adobe can you add support for previewing animated gifs in Bridge? It's ridiculous that a supposedly catch-all media browser like Bridge can't even preview this particular file type.

    Agreed. Please allow Bridge to see animated GIFs in the Preview panel. We
    know
    it's possible. There was a build of Bridge that supported it, then it was removed:

  • Viewing animated gifs in preview

    Anyway to view animated gifs in preview, or is there just some "play" or "animate" button i'm just not seeing?

    The Tiger version of Preview was supposed to work better with animated gifs than the Panther version. Unfortunately instead of improving it they broke something and it doesn't work at all. Thus far no fix has come out in the Tiger updates. Send Apple feedback:
    http://www.apple.com/macosx/feedback/
    The more people who complain the more likely it is to get fixed.

  • Problem viewing some webpages

    Hey
    Looking for some help with my macbook. I have been having problems viewing videos on youtube and i'm unsure of the problem. When i try to view a video it comes up with this message.
    "Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player."
    Also youtube doesn't look right. It looks like it is all in some kind of basic format with no graphics, ads, pictures etc. (Im not particularly computer savvy)
    I've checked my all the settings are correct in preferences, i've updated flash player and made sure all other software is up to date and still no joy!
    I had no important data on my macbook so i wiped it and reinstalled the OS and updated everything again, it still hasn't sorted the problem.
    Im unsure what to do next, any ideas would be much appreciated.
    PS i recently had someone's external hard drive plugged in to it, could i have got some virus from this??

    Thanks for the swift reply greg.
    I assumed it probably was not a virus but i thought i'd check anyway. Thats pretty much the reason i bought a mac.
    I checked the preferences and JavaScript was already enabled and all other boxes checked also. It only seems to be youtube thats the problem so far although i have not been on many other websites since.
    My internet connection is not particularly fast, i am using my college wifi network and it can often be very slow. I usually need to let videos load for a couple of minutes before i can watch.
    I have had the Macbook for about a week and have been using it regularly. The problem only started yesterday. I also carried out all my apple updates yesterday, i'm not sure if this is what has led to the problem??

  • Problem viewing forms.This form is not supported with the current version of Adobe Reader.Upgrade to the latest version for full support. That does that mean exactly?

    Problem viewing forms.This form is not supported with the current version of Adobe Reader.
    Upgrade to the latest version for full support.
    What exactly do I need to do?

    That means you were probably using Adobe Acrobat to view PDF's. Acrobat is totally unnessary, you can view PDF's in Preview (Applications - Preview).
    BTW PLEASE complete your profile. It's very difficult to help  someone when they don't provide any information about their system. You can easily do this by clicking Your Stuff in the upper right of this page, then click Profile and fill in the pertinent information.

  • Problems viewing songs in Zen Mi

    Hi all!
    I just bought a Zen Micro but have problems viewing the list of songs that I have transferred from MediaSource to the Micro. After I have done a sync, the list of songs do not appear on my Micro at all. I only get an empty screen with the words 'selected music' on the screen but I can't select anything because the songs are not there!
    Do the songs take a while before they appear on the screen even if the transfer from PC to Micro is successful? Must I switch off and switch on my Micro before things work? Am I the only person who faces this problem? Could I have done something wrongly?
    Please help. Thank you!
    ijev

    mmm, have you been reading any manual or so?
    Sounds a bit like you are looking at the "Now Playing" screen, without music selected. In that case indeed, the screen says : "go pick some music".
    What you do in that case is use the 'back' button, to get to the main menu, and then navigate to your "Music Library", and then on from there.
    So either you still have to learn to use the user interface, or I misinterpretated, and there is something oddly wrong with your player

  • Problems viewing forms in reader - easy fix using adobe send?

    My colleagues and I were having problems viewing and printing data in forms.  Went to the help forums and apparently it is caused by someone filling in a .pdf form on a mac - it corrupts the file.  I saw a lot of fixes suggested including a javascript for acrobat, but I only use reader, not the full acrobat, so none of them seemed to work for me. 
    However, I think the easiest way to fix one of these forms is to use adobe send.  If I take the corrupted form and send it to an email address using adobe send instead of sending it as an email attachment, it seems to fix the form and make the data visible again.     Have done it with a couple of forms now and it seems to work. 
    Now my question is, does anyone know why this works?

    I don't think so. The problem there seems to be not being able to save the filled out form in Reader and needed to Extend features in Adobe Reader so that Reader users can save the form. This isn't quite the same.
    My client can edit the form and save it. The problem seems to be needing to edit the saved and filled out form AGAIN.

  • Problem viewing Japanese characters in Excel sent via Email attachment

    Hi All
    I am using FM '''SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1'' to send out an e-mail attachment (Excel file). I am able to receive the Excel file successfully. However I am not able to display the Japanese characters properly in my Excel file.
    I tried to display some Japanese characters in my e-mail contents and I have no problem viewing these characters in my e-mail (I am using MS Outlook 2003). These statements becomes something illegible when I transfer it over to Excel as an attachment. In my Internal Table, these characters are displayed correctly as well.
    Anyone has any advice to solve this issue?
    Thanks for your replies.

    refer to the link below:

  • Problem viewing Apple website

    Just wondering if anyone else is having a problem viewing
    http://www.apple.com ?
    I suspect I know what is going on, but would like some
    verification that the page is trying to load a quicktime
    clip in H.264.
    Regards,
    genec

    I am using Windows XP Home SP2 and QuickTime 7.1.
    When I try to go to http://www.apple.com
    Internet Explorer 6 SP 1 crashes. So does Firefox.
    The problem is, I suspect, that my computer does not meet
    the minimum requirements for H.264.
    I do note that the requirements for Quicktime 7 are:
    Windows XP (got that)
    a pentium computer (AMD K6-2 500)
    and 128MB ram (have 384MB)
    I have downloaded the stand alone install for Quicktime 7.1
    I have the latest version of direct X and have checked for
    video driver updates (none available.
    So basically, I have done everything on the Quicktime
    support site and it will not work.
    I tried to view the WWDC, and got a Microsoft Visual C++
    Runtime Library error....Bufer Overrun Detected.
    I am working that issue with Microsoft.
    Any further light you can shed on this would be most appreciated.

  • Problem view TIFF multipage images with ECL Viewer 5.1.3

    Dear All,
    using the SAPGUI 710 and CV04N, I cannot view the same TIFF multipage image twice in ECL Viewer, the second time, the first time every thing is ok, but the second time the SAPGUI display the error : "File C:Docume1dupondLOCALS1TempZEP_0457895 cannot be created"
    To view again the TIFF mulitpage image, I need to kill the sapLogon.exe process and relaunch it again.
    It seams the TIFF image file is locked by the  the saplogon.exe process the first time and on the second time, SAP cannot rewrite the temporay TIFF image file. 
    Notes:
    - I use CV04N or CV03N to view the documents.
    - This problem doesn't happends with non multipage TIFF image.
    - Tested on more than 20 computers.
    - Computers are with Windows XP SP2 + SAP GUI 7.10 Compilation 2 + SP9 + SP12 +  - ECL Viewer 5.1.3 (integrated with Comp 2)
    How can I fix this problem ?
    Thank you for your help

    Can you upgrade the ECL viewer to version 6.0 and check whether the same problem still exists? you can download from service.sap.com

  • Problems viewing CNN videos

    Is it only me? With both Firefox and Safari, whenever I view a video on the CNN.com website, it is terrible. It just shutters and the audio is shaky. Even if I wait for the whole video to download before pressing play, I get the same problem. This has been happening for a long time, with many different versions of Firefox, starting in 2.x and still in 3.x. I never have any problems viewing YouTube video or any QuickTime videos, it is ONLY on the CNN.com website. I have contacted them several times (contact us) and complained, but I have never received a reply.
    I just want to make sure it isn't my machine. I have a pretty good system with plenty of RAM, etc.
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    I've never had an problems viewing CNN video/audio on Safari 3.1.2 (Tiger 10.4.11).
    In Safari, from the Menu Bar, select Help/Installed Plug-Ins and make sure you have the following plugin: Shockwave Flash 9.0 r151 — from file “Flash Player.plugin”. You can do a quick search of plugins by pressing Command + F in that plug in window and type in Flash in the search field. If it's there, it will be highlighed.
    If not, go here and download the Safari Flash plugin: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/alternates/
    If you already have the Flash plugin, perhaps you need to do some maintenance on your Mac? If you don't have a disk utility to clean out caches, run routine maintenance and cleaning scripts... get Onyx here: http://www.titanium.free.fr/pgs/english.html It's free, easy to download and install and use.
    Also, check your available drive space as BDAqua suggested. Right or control click your MacintoshHD icon, then click: Get Info In the Get Info click the black arrow next to General so it faces down. You will see: Capacity and Available. Make sure your Mac has a minimum of 10% free disk space, 15% is better. Not enough disk space and video/audio, applications.. will crash/free... in general, erratic behavior.
