Problems getting loadMovie to work

I've created an Flash movie that I want to load external jpgs
and swf files, but I can't get it to work. I've tried:
on (press) {
loadMovie("running_order/01.jpg", "this.book_mc");
}

loads the image in a new blank window.
I've got a blank mc (called holder) with an instance name of
book_mc. That's in one movie clip and the button with the action is
in a Tween graphic but that graphic is on the same mc as the empty
mc.
I'm at a bit of a loss as to what to do to get this working.
Sorry for posting in three messages but I couldn't get it to
display anything after the code so thought this was the best way of
doing it.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Problems getting bluetooth to work on T60

Hi all,
I am trying to get bluetooth to work on my Lenovo Thinkpad T60. Following the wiki article, I installed bluez and made sure that hal, dbus and bluetooth daemons are running. Of course, I have also made sure that the hardware switch for wifi/bluetooth on the front of the thinkpad is turned on.
Now, the situation is:
# lsmod | grep thinkpad
thinkpad_acpi 54236 0
snd 43283 16 snd_seq_oss,snd_hda_codec_analog,snd_seq,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_hwdep,snd_seq_device,snd_pcm_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_mixer_oss,thinkpad_acpi
rfkill 12854 4 bluetooth,cfg80211,thinkpad_acpi
led_class 1843 1 thinkpad_acpi
nvram 4749 1 thinkpad_acpi
# lsmod | grep blue
bluetooth 44753 5 sco,bnep,l2cap
rfkill 12854 4 bluetooth,cfg80211,thinkpad_acpi
# dmesg | grep -i blue
Bluetooth: Core ver 2.15
Bluetooth: HCI device and connection manager initialized
Bluetooth: HCI socket layer initialized
Bluetooth: L2CAP ver 2.14
Bluetooth: L2CAP socket layer initialized
Bluetooth: BNEP (Ethernet Emulation) ver 1.3
Bluetooth: SCO (Voice Link) ver 0.6
Bluetooth: SCO socket layer initialized
If I do "hciconfig --all", I get no output at all. A device /dev/hci* does not exist. So when I run hcitool, it tells me that there is no bluetooth device available:
# hcitool scan
Device is not available: No such device
In this thread is explained that one has to execute "echo enable >/proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth" to enable the bluetooth hardware:
# echo enable > /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth
-bash: /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth: No such file or directory
The directory /proc/acpi/ibm/ does exist, but root seems not to have the permission to create files there. If I enter the directory /proc/acpi/ibm/ and do "touch testfile" as root, I get "touch: cannot touch `testfile': No such file or directory".
To make a long story short, I have no idea what to do now to get bluetooth working. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance and kind regards,
jamesbond007.

No one has an idea how to get this to work...?

Problems getting 9360 to work on VIrgin Mobile

Hi,
Bought a lovely new Curve 9360 for my daughter on O2 and unlocked it for use on Virgin (she had her original phone stolen, but the contract continues - I'm giving the O2 SIM to my wife!) but am having a devil of a time getting mobile internet working...
I've hunted around for suggestions.
One idea was to go to the advanced menu for IP Routing and send a register message. A message seems to go somewhere, but nothing happens in return.
Another idea was to use Blackberry Desktop Software to select a profile from the tools menu. My software (v 2.1.3 for Mac) doesn't have a tools menu.
Another idea was to send a service book from the blackberry web site, but when I login, all I get is options to change aspects of my blackberry id.
Another idea was to key in APN and proxy details into the TCP settings section. There doesn't appear to be anywhere to enter proxy information.
The network diagnostics tool fails on doing a ping. The tool seems to think it's on T-Mobile. I understand that Virgin uses T-Mobile, so that may be nothing to worry about, but it might be considered slightly odd.
Of course Virgin support themselves don't seem to know anything about BB OS7 devices.
This is getting a little frustrating... Please help!
Thanks

Having problems getting it to work...help me!

I go to school, and our school has a web filtering device
that prevents us students from accessing many a website, and I
would like your help. I so far am able to pass the main page that
pops up when it reads "Web Filter Violation", and get on to the
websites that are supposed to be blocked, but when clicking a link
for a video to pop up, it freezes at the black screen with the
white writing reading "loading..." , because this filter prevents
its use. I know this because I test my wireless connection every
where else and these videos work fine. I was wondering if anyone
could either find a way for me to direct flash/adobe as foreign so
that the filter will not recognize it and block it, or if someone
could tell me another type of software they are using because they
are in the same situation. Now you should know this, using a proxy
server does not fix this problem, and I can't change the security
settings because I am merely a student. I have tried these, and as
far as I am concerned, they don't work. But if it of any
consellation, I am not directly hooked up to the school by cord,
I'm picking up signas with an ethernet card, so access to my
security settings and software I am able to download is unlimited.
Please help, and thank you.

I think you're best choice is to work within your school's
administration to resolve 'why' it's blocked. That's the right
thing.

Australian iPhone (unlocked) Problems getting it to work in USA

I took my Australian iPhone with me on our trip to Hawaii in June '09 year. Although AT&T has a monopoly on iPhones in the 'states, this is not the case in Australia where all wireless providers offer them. Anyway, mine is unlocked from any network, and it was my understanding prior to the trip that T-Mobile could sell me a 'prepaid' SIM and also a data pack called 'Sidekick' for my iPhone while in Hawaii. Turns out not so simple...
I went to a T-Mobile store on Maui and the guy there explained that my phone probably would not work with one of their SIMs as it would need to have been unlocked in a particular way to work with T-Mobile. He put one of their SIMs in it anyway as a test and sure enough it did not work. We're coming to Alaska via Hawaii for 3.5 weeks in June 2010 and it would be handy to solve this problem for that trip, if in fact it can be solved.
I called a T-Mobile store today and the guy told me they have a prepaid option called FlexPay that would allow me to get a month's voice and data (EDGE at least) while I'm there with no contract. I asked him about my previous experience where a T-Mobile sim card would not work in my phone. The guy said something about the 'base stand' maybe being the issue. Does this make any sense? Any ideas how I can get an unlocked iPhone to work for me in the US or what the technical issue the T-Mobile rep is referring to might be?

If the phone is unlocked, it should work on T-Mobile with no problems. The phone would need a modified carrier file but I don't think that can be talked about on this forum. You can search Google for T-Mobile USA carrier file. That will get you started.
Oh, and I think the post above mine is spam. I have no clue what it is talking about.

Problem getting connection to work with WRT54G and iPod Touch 4G

Hi, I just recently received a brand new iPod Touch 4G and I seem to be having connection troubles with it. This has also happened on my previous iPod (an iPod Touch 1G). This router has a pretty old firmware from like 2006. The problem is not that I can connect to the router and get the ipod to show the checkmark, but it is that I cannot get any network connection through the router. I have a Windows 7 laptop that connects perfectly fine using the router. Also, I believe my Nintendo DS Lite can connect flawlessly as well. I noticed that there seems to be a bit of trouble with Apple products connecting to Linksys routers in general. Does anyone know what may be causing my connection issues? When I got my iPod Touch 1G, it wouldn't connect from the get-go so I just ignored it and used the wifi at my university whenever I went there during the day.
If I need to provide any technical information, I can because I have access to the setup for the router. Thanks. :-)

Try changing the security mode to WEP and see if that works.
Open the setup page of the router.
Click on Wireless tab and go to Wireless MAC filter sub tab. Make sure that Wireless MAC filter is disabled on the router.
Try to upgrade the firmware on your router.
Connect the computer with the Ethernet cable to the router.
Download the latest firmware from Linksys website and save it on your computer. Open the setup page of the router. Click on Administration tab and go to Firmware upgrade sub tab. Browse the firmware file that you have already downloaded and upgrade it on your router.
After upgrading the firmware on the router, it is recommended that you should reset the router and reconfigure it. Press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds. Release the reset button and wait for 10 seconds. Power cycle the router and reconfigure it.
Change some advanced wireless settings on the router. Click on Wireless tab and go to Advanced wireless settings. Change the Beacon interval to 75, RTS threshold to 2307 and fragmentation threshold to 2306. Save the settings.

Problem getting example to work

I'm new to WebLogic... I'm trying to enable security for my WebApp on WLS7.0.
I want appserver to ask me for a password when I try to access a URL. I followed
the steps in http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs70/secwlres/webappex.html but using
my own WebApp, not "Basic Authentication Sample Web Application". I'm using Struts
as front end. Problem: I'm not prompted for a password, everything just works
as usual. Is there anything they don't mention in the example that I have to
do more? Please help!

Problems getting map to work in Lightroom5

For Lightroom 5.6 and 5.7 I found out that I had to create a firewall rule manually in Windows 7 to let Lightroom display any map (Lightroom said the map is "online", but nothing was displayed). Furthermore any map tiles alredy downloaded seem to disapper once you are offline. I consider this as bad practice: Why no keep the most recently (most frequently) used map tiles on disk for re-use?

I'm having the same problem with a Mac. Blacked out 'night' view of the whole world, with the message "map is offline". Nothing at all visible at less than minimum zoom (whole world.)
Octo-core tower, running 10.9. Had the issue with 5.6, upgraded to 5.7. No change. Turned off all firewalls (for a few minutes). No change. Did create manual exceptions in both firewalls once I turned them back on.
No change.
Seems like it's having trouble linking with a server somewhere. Meanwhile, my web browser and email were working just fine, so the connection was up. (ATT Uverse.)
Given that I'm seeing reports of more-or-less the same bug across multiple platforms, I'm looking hard at how it pulls data from whatever server it's pulling from.
It'd be nice to think Adobe will come back with a timely answer about what's going on.

Problems getting elements to work in a txt file within Flash.

Hello! I'm working on my band's new website and have been
searching many hours for answers to some problems I'm having with
txt files referenced as HTML in Flash.
Our site is
http://moumusic.com.
One of the problems is having an image as a link. For
instance, I have a photo and try to link a website to it:
quote:
<a href="
http://cdbaby.com/cd/motuniverse"
target="_blank"><img src="images/cdbaby.gif" width="100"
height="100"></a>
It works when loaded as an HTML file, but not when viewed in
the Flash site. The text file for this is at
http://moumusic.com/moualbum.txt.
The page comes up when you click the "MoU's First CD" link on
moumusic.com.
Next, I can't link to external media files. For instance, I
tried inserting the code:
quote:
<a href="
http://fusco-moore.com/videos/SongforCliff-2.wmv">Song
for Cliff Video Part 2</a>
. You can click the text (while viewing it as
part of the Flash site), but nothing happens. You can even copy the
shortcut, but you can't use the link properly.
Last, I want to put a PayPal Buy It Now button on one of the
pages. The link is pretty long:
quote:
<a
href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=producer%40wcjm%2ecom&it em_name=%22Masters%20of%20the%20Universe%22%20CD%20by%20MoU&amount=10%2e00&no_shipping=2&n o_note=1&currency_code=USD&lc=US&bn=PP%2dBuyNowBF&charset=UTF%2d8">Buy
Now!</a>
. I heard that there's a 128 character limit for
links in Flash. Is there any way around this?
What about forms? PayPal has the option of doing a form for a
shopping cart. Flash won't even begin to recognize it when I just
drop the form code in there.
Well, thanks for the help in advance- hopefully this stuff
can be accomplished!
Jim

I assume you are using the Flash TextField object set to
render html.
First to understand is that the extent of html recognized is
limited and by
player version. That means you cannot use any HTML tag you
wish.
See
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/00001459.html
for the
supported list in Flash Player 8
You might check "About making hypertext links out of embedded
media " as
well:
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/00001477.html
Malformed html in a TextField can render any tag in the field
non
functional. Be sure the html in the TextField is validated.
I would assume the anchor tag in Flash text field would
follow the same
rules an anchor tag in HTML as to length of the query string.
Finally consider using Flash with a button and getURL for the
PayPal link.

Problem getting TLF to work in Flex Builder 3

Hi,
I have recently installed new SDK 4 for Flex builder 3 which is suppposed to include the textlayout.swc classes.
Can anyone tell me how i can get new TextLayout to work.

Hi,
This link does not specifically deal with TLF but should be a good starting point: http://blog.flexexamples.com/2008/08/02/using-the-beta-gumbo-sdk-in-flex-builder-3/

Having a problem getting transitions to work in FC X. Can someone help me?

Hi there,
I am quite familiar with imovie and how transitions work. When I try and use them in FCX they wont stay in the frame. I get the + sign showing me that it is adding the transition but the transition doesn't stay in the film strip. What am I missing. I have gone through the tutorials and it seems quite straight forward. Can someone help me out there? Is it a key command I am missing.
Regards

MarkyMark,
It's easy once you find the way. I'm assuming the clip you are referring to is above the main storyline clip, just say, the second clip up. You have to make that clip a storyline clip, right click on the clip and you'll see it. Then, add the transition. Now, here's the trick, if you only add the transition, it may affect the clip below. Once again, right click that clip and create a compound clip, it should work. I had that issue with a 3D animated logo with an alpha channel. Added a blur filter and it affected the clip below, but when I changed it to a compound clip, it was perfect. Not sure of why they did that, but I can guarantee you there is a good reason. I'm loving FCX.

Problem getting effects to work properly

Every time I try to add an effect to my video whether it is on my desktop or laptop, I get a black screen replacing the video portion. This occurs whether I have the "over black" box checked or not.

I'm having the same problem, I tried adding the slow/fast/reverse effect, and it simply blacks the clip out. On top of that, it labels the clip as "black" without doing anything else for me

I am still having a problem getting Mail to work with OSX 10.6.8. Non of the fixes are working for me. Any help would be appreciated

Hi, tried the Apple fix, installing the OSX combo update followed by the Safari update followed by the security update, nothing.
Tried the thing where you toss the mail program in the trash and then install the security update, nothing.
Is there anyone else who has a problem even after all trhe fixes suggested here and in Apple support?
Thank you

What version of Mail and what happens when you try to use Mail? A little more information would help.
