Two things to try:
disable Hardware Acceleration (Flash Player Settings)
update the device drivers for your display adapter

Safari have problems with streaming radio over flash
Hello,
since my update on MAC OS LION have my safari problem with radio streaming over flash.
For testing: http://shoutcast.flashradio.info/#/House/814384/
In all browsers on all platforms will this work. Just on the combination from MAC OS LION and Safari 5.1 we get the io error #2032.Try changing some Advanced wireless settings on the router. Open the setup page of the router and go to Wireless tab. Click on Advanced wireless settings. Change beacon Interval to 75, RTS threshold to 2304. Save the settings.
Change the wireless channel to 11.
An 802.11n router can also work with 802.11g and even 11b devices. But these much slower devices force the router to slow down to talk to them, which means a big throughput hit. Fortunately, the "legacy" mechanisms are pretty efficient and reduce throughput only when the slower devices are actively transmitting or receiving. Either upgrade to all 11n clients, or use a separate 802.11g router to handle your "legacy" stuff. -

Problems with Adobe Reader and Flash Player
I had an Adobe update last Monday and, ever since then, I can't view documents (eg credit card statements) on screen and sites that I previously visited regularly without problem suddenly say that I need to have Adobe Flash Player installed. I've downloaded Adobe Flash Player and it says it's installed correctly but when I return to the site, it still says I need Adobe Flash Player. I've also tried doing an uninstall first and then an instal but the same thing happens. I've run disk first aid and it found a problem with the Head which it fixed but I still can't open documents using Adobe in Safari. Adobe Plug ins tells me that the Internet Access plug in is not loaded but when I ran 'repair Adobe Reader installation", it said there were no missing components detected and repair was not needed. I don't know if it's relevant but I've been having problems with Safari for several weeks, quitting 3 or 4 times a day, mainly when I'm switching from Safari to another programme such as Entourage or Excel.

I don't think I made it clear on the original post that I'm having problems with both Adobe Reader AND Adobe Flash Player. Unfortunately, all the Adobe Reader sites are confidential so I can't give you an illustration on that but for the Adobe Flash Player, try www.jacquielawson.com/ - you can preview cards without being signed in. With the Adobe Reader problems, I get a picture of a blank 'piece of paper' with a small blue square in the top right hand corner that has a white question mark inside it. The first time this happened to me, I was on the UK Inland Revenue site trying to print out some end of year forms. I phoned the Revenue's helpline and they said to try doing a 'save as' to my desktop. It seemed bizarre - saving a blank piece of paper - but lo and behold, when I opened it on my desktop, the forms appeared exactly as normal. However, I've since tried this 'save as' technique with my credit card statement and I still get a blank piece of paper with a blue square and white question mark when I open the desktop copy.
Thanks for your help and patience. I really appreciate it.

Problems with Safari, Firefox and Flash player
Ever since I got my new iMac that has Snow Leopard I've had problems with Safari and Firefox freezing or crashing. It appears that part of the problem is the Flash plugin because sometimes a screen pops up and says something like: the flash script is having problems. I've tried uninstalling & reinstalling Flash, Safari and Firefox but the problem is still there. My browser seems to hang up or freeze a lot no matter if I use Safari or Firefox.
Any ideas?
I just discovered the Chrome browser from Google this morning and so far its working very well. No freezes and it appears to handle Flash video without any problems.
How can that be?
ThanksAh! The proverbial missing information. Why the regrets? Most people are having no issues migrating from previous computers; it's the preferred method. See Best Practices and Setup new Mac. You're a long way from starting over.

Please use the offline installer:

Download the install package from this link. Double-click to open it from your downloads folder; when you see the red "install" folder, right-click it and select "Show Package Contents"; click on the "Contents" folder; then click on the "Resources" folder; then double-click on the "Adobe Flash Player.pkg" file. The installation will start. It worked for me.... FINALLY!! I hope it also works for you. -

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. -
I have a problem with my keyboard in Flash App on Android.
I have a problem with my Flash App on Android, this app requires installing Adobe Air on Android before running. The keyboard pushing issue has troubled me for a while however I can't find a solution.
As you know, while triggering any text box, the keyboard, no matter built-in one or others will push the screen up to a few then you can see what you are typing. However, on my app, when I trigger the built-in keyboard, it covers the half screen meanwhile I can't see what I am typing.
Could anyone can give a light so I can completely this problem for 2 years? Is this something I can do with action script or Flash?
Thank you.If you have a suggestion or answer feel free to leave a message as I will continue to check back here. Thanks.

Problem with internal HD upgrade- Flashing "?" over HD icon on startup
Last weekend, I installed a Western Digital 250GB internal IDE 2.5 inch drive (WD2500BEVE) to replace the internal HD on my 15 inch G4 PB Aluminium (not sure of processor speed, but purchased new in 2004, with OSX 10.4.11). I backed up my existing HD to my friend's MacBook, as a disk image using Carbon Copy Cloner. I was very careful with the installation (using anti-static wristband etc etc). The installation appeared to go well. The newly installed internal HD could be mounted as an external HD of my friend's MacBook (using firewire Target Disk mode). Carbon Copy Cloner copied everything back to the new internal HD without any apparent problems.
BUT THEN... when I disconnected the firewire connection and tried to start my computer on its own, the dreaded 'flashing question mark over hard drive' icon appeared.
Can anyone suggest what the problem might be? Three things I've already excluded are:
(1) The jumper settings on the HD are correct.
(2) I formatted the new HD as Mac OS extended (journaled)
(3) The problem is not with the master boot sector (i.e. the problem is not merely that the computer can see the HD but does not know how to load the system from it). My computer cannot see the HD at all -- when I insert my operating system DVDs as if to reinstall the system, my internal HD does not even appear.
I am not panicking as I can still view the contents of my internal HD by booting it as an external HD of my friend's computer. But there seems to be a problem with my CPU communicating with my internal HD. The core of the mystery is: why can I boot my new internal HD off my friend's computer using FireWire, yet when I start my computer on its own using the operating system DVDs, the computer doesn't seem to recognise the HD whatsoever?
Does anyone have any suggestions?Can we establish what model Powerbook you have? Take the battery out and look for the label.
I have a feeling that your PB cannot recognize the 250GB drive, although I was under the impression that the older PBs that could only recognize 128GB would simply ignore the extra disk space. Perhaps the ATA specs aren't all backward compatible, although the Firewire interface can handle it.
Other World Computing can obtusely point out which drives your model can handle, although I don't know it its 100% accurate.

THANKS!!Hi Carlos,
From ST02 you can "current parameters" button, that will tell all current parameters per buffer.
You are bound to have swaps in some buffers altough ideally the number should be 0. Less than 10,000 a day is the maximum recommended by SAP.
Have a look at the history of the buffer and check when the swaps happened etc. Is it daily or a one off because something abnormal was running on the system a particular day.
Then check if the swaps happen because you're running out of space in the buffer or number of entries allowed. Then you can start thinking of tuning it.
Remenber that the swaps you see are since startup, so look at the history as well.
Let me know if you need any more help.

Problem with motion tweening in Flash CS4
Hi !
I tried to refresh my little flash knowledge -- but I stumbled upon a problem with the new Flash CS4!
When I try to make different blur or alpha effect on one keyframe I got after making the motion tween -- Flash adjust the other keyframe as well (got the same reaction on both keyframes as if it was the same instance of movie clip -- and not as in old flash; the keyframes created separated or independent instances)
The only thing working for me is when I move the movie clip out of the stage on the first keyframe -- and it correctly move its position.
What's wrong?
Kind Regards
Maria OlsenHello Maria,
You sort of answered your own question:)
"got the same reaction on both keyframes as if it was the same instance of movie clip"
That is exactly right and is the proper way of looking at new motion tweens. It is one instance of the movieclip for the duration of the tween. It takes awhile to get used to this.
New motion tweens allow you to set up a a very simple tween initially without keyframing ending values / position. Once you start making changes after the tween is set, you are going to have to get familiar with adding "property keyframes". Property keyframes are displayed with those little diamond icons in the timeline. Poperty keyframes allow you to "lock in" certain specific properties at key points in your animation without affecting other properties. With the old classic keyframes, a keyframe placed mid-tween would create a whole new instance of a symbol with all properties (rotation, scale, alpha etc) set in stone for that point in time. The benefit was that you could easily have all properties tween TO and FROM that keyframe if that's what you wanted. Now you can make adjustments to a symbol mid-tween and only specifically adjust a single property. So you can adjust the alpha of an object mid-tween without interrupting say a rotation that you wanted to happen all the way through.
If you simply want an object to move left to right and then you decide it should fade in
CLASSIC TWEEN
-place symbol on frame 1
-keyframe frame 10
-in frame 10 move the symbol to the right
-add classice tween
Ok, that works, now add alpha fade in
-go back to frame 1 and set alpha to 0
-classice tween automatically adjusts alpha from 0 in frame 1 to 100 in frame 10.
-done
MOTION TWEEN
-place symbol on stage
-create motion tween
-playhead jumps to last frame
-move symbol to the right (no need to f6 / keyframe)
Flash automatically adds something called a "position" keyframe (notice the little black diamond)
Ok, that works, now add alpha fade in
-go to frame 1 and set alpha to 0
-test movie
-oops - wrong. As you noted the alpha will stay at 0 throughout the whole tween.
-you need to additionally go to the last frame and set the alpha back to 100
-this will automtically create a "color" property keyframe on the last frame
When just doing this now I noticed something odd as well
As soon as I do the position change and move the symbol to the right, if I try to add the "color keyframe" on the last frame of the tween, I am not allowed to do so. "color" and "filter" are greyed out. I would prefer to lock the alpha at 100 in the last frame while the playhead is in position before setting it down to 0 in frame 1. Oh well.
Seems you are forced to
-go back to the beginning of the tween
-adjust the alpha
-then go to the end and manually bring the alpha back up.
hmm maybe i'm missing something too:)
the best way to do this would be to have the foresight ahead of time to do the alpha
-place the symbol
-alpha 0
-add motion tween
-in last frame move the symbol set alpha to 100 (alpha and position keyframes are automatically set)
So if you do it right the first time, its easy. If not, well.
Keep in mind an object will maintain the properties it has set in frame 1 unless a subsequent property keyframe enforces some adjustment.
If you have have an object that is moving from point a to b to c to d:
If you alter the alpha at point b, the alpha will tween from point a to b, but will maintain the new alpha to c, to d.
If you scale the clip by 200% at point, its scale will tween from point a all the way to point d, NOT just from c to d
To scale from point c to d only, set a "scale" property keyframe at point c (this will lock the objects scale at 100) THEN scale to 200% at point d
It takes a good deal of practice. I found the hard way that you just can't "wing" it. It isn't very intuitive coming from a classic tween approach.
These articles really helped me:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/motion_migration_guide.html
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/learning_guide/animation/
Take note of the tips on "cntr-clicking" frames and "shift-dragging". You have to really get used to a few keyboard modifiers when editing the timeline.
Stick around the forums. A lot of good info comes through daily.

Having problems with mailscript for my flash site :(
I posted this on another part of this form but thought it may
be more applicable to this portion of the site so I thank you once
again in advance for your help!
I want to say hello to all and thanks for letting me a part
of this great forum. I am having some problems with my flash site
(www.alliancedirect.net) and I am using Adobe Flash CS4 now with my
site with ActionScript 1.0.
I have a form already made on the site (under contact us) but
whatever I do....I can't make it work! I use GoDaddy and their
gdform.psp is what they provide but they don't give the code in
flash. I downloaded some different flash mail scripts and programs
but I don't know how to incorporate it within my own site and I
don't know what to do! I just want the information to be submitted
to me via email and the other forms I will make away from the flash
portion if it is too complicated.
Please let me know what specific information you may need
from me and how you can hopefully help me as soon as possible as I
need this website completely up and running. Again, I appreciatre
the help and look forward to being a part of your community!
-sasssI found this here:
http://www.actionscript.org/resources/articles/82/3/Send-Email-via-Flash-and-PHP/Page3.htm l
THE CODE
stop ();
function lineAdapt () {
message_send = message;
while (msg_count<length(message)) {
msg_count = msg_count+1;
if ((substring(message_send, msg_count, 2)) eq "
message_send = (substring(message_send, 1, msg_count-2))
+"
"+(substring(message_send, msg_count+2,
(length(message_send))-msg_count+2));
message = message_send;
delete msg_count;
delete message_send;
WHAT THE ABOVE MEANS
Line 1 - Stops the play head.
Line 2 - Defines a custom function lineAdapt which will
convert the flash carriage return marker ( " ") to the PHP
equivalent (" "). This ensures that if the user types a comment
with paragraph breaks, these breaks will be reflected in the email,
rather than it being one very long line of text :o)
Line 3 - Sets variable message_send to the value of message.
This is a storage variable: we will adapt message_send rather than
message because message is being displayed in a text box on screen
and adapting it may cause strange visual output.
Line 4 - Begins a loop which will continue until the newly
created variable msg_count is greater than or equal to the length
of the string contained in message.
Line 5 - Increments msg_count by 1.
Line 6 - Conditional statement which checks if the 2
characters within the string message_send starting at letter number
msg_count are equal to the string " ". If you type data into a text
box in Flash and enter carriage returns, you wills see that the
variable which stores that text fields value is adapted with a " "
inserted where each carriage return should be, so we are looking
for these markers using Line 6.
Line 7 - If Line 6 returns True, replace the " " we just
found with " " (which is the PHP equivalent of " "). This code
looks complicated but it isn't really. Al it does it 'copies' the
characters before and after the " ", the pastes those before,
enters " " and pastes those after. The result is the equivalent
string with " " instead of " ".
Line 8 - Sets the variable message to the finalized version
of message_send, which contains no " " markers. We do this because
when we post our variables PHP will look for variables with the
same name. Remember in the PHP code we refer to the variable
messagenot message_send so we must make sure the correct variable
holds the correct value.
Line 9 - Deletes the counter variable for our loop from
memory
Line 10 - Deletes the temporary message_sendvariable we used
for altering the new line markers.
SEND BUTTON CODE
on (release) {
if (subject eq "" or message eq "" or from eq "") {
stop ();
} else {
lineAdapt();
loadVariablesNum ("mail.php3", 0, "POST");
gotoAndStop (2);
WHAT THE ABOVE MEANS
Line 1 - Says "Perform these actions when this button is
clicked then released"
Line 2 - Checks to see if any variable has no value. We don't
want people sending us mail with no reply address for instance.
Line 3 - Line 2 returns True, stop.
Line 4 - Line 2 returns False, go on.
Line 5 - Perform the predefined function lineAdapt () on our
currently entered variables.
Line 6 - Send variables, using the POST method, to our PHP
script which will send the email off. (Note that you could also use
LoadVars objects in place of LoadVariables if you wish to make this
more synchornous. See the LoadVariables and LoadVars tutorial.)
Line 7 - Go to the confirmation message and stop once the
email is sent.
