Projector Extension for Mac

Hello,
I'm running Tiger 10.4.6 and for some reason, when I publish
a Mac projector file, there is no "Flash Player" icon. I appears to
be coming up blank. Is there an extension I can add so it finds it?
I find this very interesting because things like this are only
suppose to happen on Windows. It shouldn't need an
extension.

This is weird, I exported a projector file in a different
folder and it drew the Mac projector icon. Maybe it's time to fix
permissions.

  • Exception in C++ air native extension for Mac OS X

    I develop air extension for ios and mac os x.
    I use the same code on ios and mac.
    For ios all good.
    But on mac - have problems.
    In extension I use std::vector. Code example:
    vector<Type*>* types; types = new vector<Type*>();  Type* type = new Type(); types->push_back(type);
    Application crashed by line:
    types->push_back(type);
    I tried add try/catch block - but application crashed too.
    I don't know what wrong. This code is work fine on ios and in console application for mac.

    Workaround found:
    Need to launch adl as a line command (depends on your directory config, of course):
    /Applications/Adobe\ Flash\ Builder\ 4.6/sdks/4.6.0/bin/adl -runtime /Library/Frameworks/ -extdir /Users/vandrito/Desktop/simpleAirNativeExtension/launch/extensions -profile extendedDesktop /Users/vandrito/Documents/Projets/o3sui/simpleAirNativeExtensionTest/bin-debug/simpleAirN ativeExtensionTest-app.xml
    Pay attention to the library location: it is the one of the Air 3.1 install. Did not check the same trick with Flash Builder 4.6 Air install.
    Then use a fake web debugger to connect to the process (if compiled in debug mode). See here how to do (french):

  • What is the extension for mac mail in lion

    What is the extension for mail in lion?

    What do you mean exactly, that you're looking for com.apple.mail.plist?
    If so, it should be in the Preferences folder like it always is. But Lion hides the Library folder, which holds the Preferences folder, so you'll probably have to use one of the techniques to reveal the Library folder.

  • Overhead Projector Extension for VGA?

    I have an overhead projector (connected to a Smartboard) in my classroom and I want to connect my iPad 2. I know I can connect using the VGA adapter. My question is, is there some type of extension cord so I can attach to the VGA connector up on the projector, but have my iPad down with me? There are so many different cord types and connectors, and I don't want to buy the wrong thing. (the projector does not have an HDMI port).  Thank you!

    While you can do this, it's somewhat awkward and clumsy - particularly since the adaptor drops out of the ipad very easily. Not the best sight lines.
    Some alternatives.
    connect an Apple TV to your projector. It is expensive (99 dollars), and you'll need to get an adaptor to connect it (I think those run about 30), but it will allow a wireless connection.
    Check out Reflection. It allows you to project your ipad image onto a computer, and if the computer is displaying on the projector then the iPad image will show on the screen. Much cheaper than the Apple TV.
    Use the iPad to control the computer - not what you were thinking, but would allow you to control Smartboard software on the iPad.
    It's important to note that, while you can project an iPad image onto a Smartboard, you can't use any of the interactive touch features of the Smartboard with it - you can't control the iPad from the touchscreen, and you can't run Smart software on the iPad (there is a viewer that will allow you to read Smart notebooks on the iPad, I believe, but not a full software suite).

  • .exe projector file for PC works fine, but extracted .hqx for Mac won't open when on CD

    I'm using Flash MX, AS 2, Projector 6, working on a PC.
    I saved two versions of my project -- one .exe for Windows and one .hqx for Mac.  The .exe works fine when burned onto a CD.  When opening the .hqx from a CD on a Mac, I got a message that the file is on a locked volume.  I discovered that the reason for this is that an .hqx is essentially a zipped file which has to be extracted, and when a file is extracted, the unzipped files are written onto the same location as the original.  When the original files are on a CD, Stuffit (Mac's zip extractor program) can't write onto that location.
    [So if anyone at Adobe looks at these forum posts, let me say that I think its absolutely ridiculous that the Mac version of Flash's projector files have to be extracted in order to be viewed!]
    To get around this problem, I saved the .hqx on my PC, put it on a portable hard drive and brought it over to a Mac (because Stuffit for PC converts it into an .exe for PC), and unzipped it.  When I'd test it on the portable hard drive or on a USB drive, the extracted file would work.  When I'd bring it back over to the PC and burn a CD with both versions on it, and then test that CD on the Mac, it wouldn't work.  Can anyone tell me why the extracted Mac version works on a hard drive, but not on a CD?  What do I have to do in order to make a Mac projector file work from a CD?

    Windows uses the FAT file system, Macs use the HFS file system. The two are not compatible. If you save a Mac projector file on a FAT file system, it won't be saved properly and it won't work. When you create a Mac projector from a Windows version of Flash, the file will be saved as a compressed .hqx file.
    Since you need to use a Mac to create a hybrid CD, when you move that .hqx file to the Mac, unstuff it and then use the resulting file for the CD. It will then run from the CD as expected.

  • I have 1Password for Mac and recently updated to Firefox5 for Mac and cannot locate 1Password in Plug-ins or extensions....How can I add this vital plug-in to FireFox5 OR how can I roll back things and re-install FireFox4?

    I am running FireFox5 on a 2008 (Santa Rosa) MacBook Pro.
    OSX 10.5 Leopard
    I have the current version of 1Password v.3.5.13 (FireFox5-friendly)
    I am running FireFox5 for Mac.
    I have the Add-on Compatibility Reporter 0.8.5 (which, by the way is reading "Compatibility Problems" with an orange exclamation mark)
    My Extensions tab shows 1Password for FireFox3 & FireFox4& Add-on Compatibility Reporter, but no 1Password for FireFox5.
    (I can email a screenshot of this if you like, let me know.)
    Any ideas?
    I'd really rather use FireFox than Safari, but if it's a no go, (no compatibility, no rool-back) I'll be forced to dump FireFOx and use Safari (only my choice of last resort.)
    JohnSea

    Thanks James!
    I appreciate you responding.
    Since I'm running Leopard (Software reasons-Logic Studio, Final Cut Studio) my task now is to locate Firefox4 and re-install it....
    But haven't found where on the Mozilla site it resides for download.....on with the the fun!

  • HT202806 Chrome for Mac automatically uninstalls iCloud Bookmarks extension

    iCloud for Windows includes a Chrome extension that allows you to sync your Chrome bookmarks in Windows with your Safari bookmarks on your Mac.
    There is a problem though. If you have Chrome installed on your Mac and run it, Chrome identifies that the extension is not compatible with Chrome for Mac and it then automatically and without asking uninstalls the extension. As extensions are synced across all your Chrome browsers across multiple platforms, when you next run Chrome for Windows, the extension also gets uninstalled, leaving you back where you started without the ability sync bookmarks.
    This seems primarily to be an issue with the way Chrome handles compatible extensions, but thought I'd raise it here in case anyone else has noticed this and has any advice.
    Does anyone know of a way to prevent Chrome from automatically removing the extension? Or maybe there is an option to stop cross-OS extension syncing. Simply never running Chrome again on my Mac is not an option as I require it in addition to Safari.

    It's not necessary because iCloud bookmarks come from Safari. The extension is there so that you can sync your bookmarks from Safari on your Mac and easily access them using Chrome on your PC.
    If you read the description for the extension, you would realize that.
    Keep your Chrome bookmarks on Windows up to date with the Safari bookmarks on your iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
    Chrome can already sync bookmarks via Google that can be accessed using Chrome on another machine without the need for an extension. If you want to use Chrome on all your machines and sync the bookmarks, google already has you covered there.

  • Help - flash player v6 standalone for mac OS 8.6?

    desperately looking for flash standalone player v6 for mac OS
    8.6. tried the adobe downloads archived flash player section:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14266&amp;sliceId=2
    theres an extensive version 6, but the install only installs
    browser plugins, not the standalone player. even if someone has a
    v6 standalone player they could zip and email me i would be
    eternally grateful.
    the release notes talk about a standalone, but its not in the
    hqx file that the link gives you.
    http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/releasenotes/player/rn_6.html

    What are you trying to do? Mac 8.6 is so old as is the Flash
    6 player.
    ASFAIK, the stand alone players are not generally
    distributed. They are only included with the Flash authoring tool.
    Maybe it was different back in 2001...
    If you have a copy of Flash that runs on Mac OS 8.6 (or
    perhaps even OS 9) here is a trick that may help you. (Some of the
    names might be off a bit due to changes in the interface. I can't
    remember that far back!)
    Open up Flash.
    Create a new Flash document.
    Save it with a name like &quot;MyFlashPlayer&quot;
    Go to the File menu and select publish options.
    Check the box to publish a Mac projector.
    Uncheck the publish to SWF box
    Publish your file.
    You can now use the projector to open swf files.
    Don't know if that will help, but it might. Otherwise let us
    know what you are trying to do.

  • DivX "for Mac" and Safari -- anyone get it to work on Snow Leopard?

    Pardon me for the length of this post --  it's just a very involved question to which DivX has no answers, and I've literally wasted this entire week trying to get the so-called DivX "Bundle for Mac" to work, with absolutely no joy.
    27" iMac Core 2 Duo 3.06 GHz, 12 GB RAM, OS X 10.6.7
    Safari (v. 5.0.5 [6533.21.1])
    Safari Extensions:
    DivX HiQ 2.1.1.94
    DivX Plus Web Player HTML5 <video> 2.1.1.94
    As anyone who has used YouTube in the past year or however long this option has been available, many videos, under the regular YouTube control bar at the bottom of the video window, have an additional option: DivX HiQ, with a blue "play" button with black arrow, and in white text on black, the message "Press play for higher quality video." EVERY SINGLE time, until yesterday (about which more anon) I've selected DivX HiQ, the YouTube screen turns into the gray DivX Plus player window for a few seconds, sometimes I get a brief "Buffering…" message (sometimes not)* (see below), then a window pops up telling me "DivX Plus Web Player could not download the video, please check your internet connection." (screen shots on request).
    I have DL'd AND installed -- several times over the past few days -- DivX for Mac, version 7.3 (right up-to-date as of 11-30-10 -- great support for the Mac OS), with little or no success or noticeable results. Finally, yesterday, it somehow (I thought) installed correctly: at least instead of nothing whatsoever happening after the install, this time I was whisked magically away to <<http://www.divx.com/en/software/download/installed/mac?os=mac>> where I was rather breathlessly informed "Congratulations! You can now enjoy the highest quality digital video | divx.com." Well, this was something new -- this was the first time I'd ever gotten this far. Then I was shown many movies, promising new marvels:
    The first movie informed me "You have successfully installed DivX software." This WAS something new. Then it told me about the "DivX Plus Web Player… Now Featuring: DivX HiQ… Boost web video quality and performance… … Look for the DivX HiQ Button on your favorite video sites… see better quality and performance with a simple click… Try it out on your favorite sites… YouTube. Vimeo. And more.
    Then I played the NEXT movie, all about the DivX Plus Player, and here I TRULY saw something I'd never seen before: *a DivX Plus Player window, that actually said " Connecting… Buffering: … " and then -- mirabile dictu! -- an actual video began to play, and actually continued to play, with no stops, fits, or error windows, right up until the end. This WAS something new under the sun. It continued, extolling the manifold virtues of "DivX to go," which was of no use to me. The next video was about the DivX Plus Codec Pack, and the video told me about the wonderful things DivX could do in Windows 7, if I was brain-dead enough to USE Windows 7. Useless info, but that video, too, opened up the way I believe the *HiQ videos are supposed to open up in YouTube, for example: "Connecting… Buffering: …," and then actually opening and playing. BTW, I hate to sound like a troglodytic Luddite, but I have no idea what "MKV" video is.
    The final video, which ALSO opened up the way I believe the *HiQ videos are supposed to open up in YouTube, for example: "Connecting… Buffering: …," spoke to me about the manifold joys of DivX Plus converter, which ALSO requires the DivX Player application, and since the DivX Player application (v.7.2 (build 10_0_0_184, Copyright © 2006-2009 DivX, Inc.), which, I was given to understand, was actually a PART of the DivX software I had finally "successfully installed" (according to divx.com's delirious greeting), has never worked, none of what all these videos talked about was going to do me much good. HOW has it never worked, you ask? It has never worked in this way: I click on the DivX Player app icon, the DivX Player window opens, and the Mac OS beach ball spins merrily away, and spins, and spins, and spins -- at this point, I usually go to the kitchen for another cup of the strengthening coffee and the hopefully headache-reducing ibuprofen. When I come back, the beach ball is still spinning, so, resignedly, I go to the "Force Quit" command, where, invariably, I see the message "DivX Player not responding," and, resignedly, I force quit it. Again. This scenario has occurred without variation every single time I've tried to open the DivX Player application. It has never actually opened correctly, it has always shown up in the "Force Quit" window with the comment "DivX Player not responding," and I have always had to Force Quit it.
    Now Here's what may be termed the icing on the cake: fairly well buried in the "DivX for Mac" install package is a pdf "read me." Among many other fables is THIS whopper:
    "For online video tutorials visit the following URL in your web browser: http://go.divx.com/mac/tutorials"
    I did just that, and though the link works, there IS no page on the DivX site for "Mac tutorials." When you click on the link, you get redirected to "http://support.divx.com/faq/view/supportFAQen100/video_tutorials_main." Except for a video tutorial under "DivX Converter_ -- for which I have no use -- entitled "How To Edit Your DivX Converter for Mac Output Settings," and these two: "How To Export To DivX In Final Cut Pro for Mac," and "How To Export To DivX Using QuickTime On A Mac" -- neither of which do me the slightest bit of good, since A) I don't use, nor can I afford, Final Cut Pro, and B) what good would it to to export ANYTHING to DivX when the DivX Player for Mac does not, and has never, done anything but hang until Force Quitted?
    A brief digression on that very subject of "hanging:" there's a little section in the obscure "DivX for Mac" pdf that reads:
    "5. Known issues
    Network connection is lost during download
    A lost network connection in the middle of a download may hang the DivX Player For Mac. If this occurs, you may 'Force Quit' the DivX Player For Mac by simultaneously clicking command-option-escape and selecting the application from the list or by right-clicking the icon in the dock and selecting 'Force Quit.' You may then resume the download by re-launching the DivX Player, selecting 'Download Manager” from the File menu and clicking 'Resume.'"
    Wonderful advice, if I could ever get to the point where I was actually downloading something, but since MY particular edition of DivX Player for Mac saves me all that bother by hanging immediately upon launch, DivX has very kindly saved me the trouble of having to go through all that "Force Quit" - "Resume" nonsense. Of course, I never get to download anything or use the DivX Player on YouTube or anywhere else, so that's a bit of a downside.
    So back to the putative "Mac tutorials" on the non-existent "http://go.divx.com/mac/tutorials" page: other than the three totally non-germane examples I cited above, there is nothing that I can find on the re-direct page (http://support.divx.com/faq/view/supportFAQen100/video_tutorials_main) that is the least concerned with the usage or behavior of any component of DivX on a Macintosh computer. That's certainly not uncommon, but for a company that purports to sell products that actually work on the Mac OS X platform, EVERYTHING about the DivX site is so totally Windows-centric, one would be inclined to believe that DivX is not even aware the Mac OS X platform exists. For example, here's the list of tutorials under "DivX 101 - Learn How" on the page that, according to the DivX for Mac Read Me, was supposed to solve all my problems with running DivX on a Mac:
    Featured Video Tutorials
    How to register your PS3 for DivX VOD playback
    How do I make DivX player my default video player?
    How to register your DivX Certified device with the DivX Plus Player
    How to stream DivX Plus HD (MKV) files to your Xbox 360
    How to use the DivX Plus Converter
    Featured Text Guides
    DivX Plus Converter for Windows User Guide
    DivX Plus Player for Windows User Guide
    DivX Codec 5.x User Guide
    DivX Codec 6 and Virtual Dub Guide
    It's wonderful that DivX has tutorials dealing with XBox360 and PS3, but the Mac seems to have been lost in the shuffle -- I think, from an aesthetic point, the guy in the sideways hat and the emphasis on animé and "blow 'em up" games in what few tutorials are actually there pretty much sums up DivX's idea of their market focus. Maybe they're right, but if this "free" version, that so far I have not been able to get to work as advertised on my 27" iMac, is supposed to entice any Mac user into forking over even the piddling $20.00 for the "Pro" version, the "free" version isn't DivX any "gotta have it" favors.
    Now for the final mystery: I have two Safari -- v5.0.5 (6533.21.1) -- extensions from DivX:
    1. DivX HiQ 2.1.1.94, which is supposed to allow you to watch videos on YouTube, Vimeo, etc. in the DivX Player for Mac, but refuses to work when enabled: EVERY SINGLE time I've selected DivX HiQ, the YouTube screen turns into the gray DivX player window for a few seconds, then an error window pops up that says "DivX Plus Web Player could not download the video, please check your internet connection."
    2. DivX Plus Web Player HTML5 <video> 2.1.1.94, the little blurb in the Safari Extensions window for which says "Increase performance and video formats for your HTML5 <video>
    Clicking on the "by DivX, Inc." link in the Safari Extensions window of either of these extensions takes me to http://www.divx.com/en/software/divx-plus/web-player
    "High-quality video shouldn’t stop at your browser. DivX Plus® Web Player gives you the best web video performance around, even on sites using Flash®. The latest feature, DivX HiQ™ beta, lets you replace the default Flash player on popular sites for improved performance. Of course you can still watch stunning DivX® and DivX Plus HD (MKV) videos right in your browser, and even enjoy MKV features like multiple audio tracks, subtitles and 5.1 channel AAC audio."
    That's all well and good, but, not when it doesn't work. I don't know what the story is with these Safari Extensions: a manual (unfortunately the only way you can do it), category by category search of Apple's "Safari Extensions Gallery" turns up NO information about these extensions, neither does -- as far as I can tell -- a search of the DivX site. Am I supposed to use BOTH extensions? Neither? One or the other? Which? So far, if I use them, I get the HiQ option in YouTube (and elsewhere), but when I click on it, I get the error message above, and the window reverts to the usual plain old YouTube window. If I disable the DivX Safari extensions, I don't even get the HiQ option.
    Has ANYONE gotten the DivX for Mac Bundle v7.1, or even the DivX Plus Web Player for Mac, v2.1.1, to actually work on a Mac running OS X 10.6.7?
    If so, PLEASE tell me how you got it to work.
    I'd gladly for over the 20 bucks for this product if it actually worked, but not until it does.

    Well, I can start banging my head against the brick wall again.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your answer. After some more experimenting, i finally got it to work ... However, not every embedded DivX movie will play.
    I just deleted another codec in the Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime folder. (One of the codecs mentioned on http://perian.org/#support was still in the folder). Before I had only deleted the files whose name has "DivX" in it.
    I did NOT install the DivX Web Player plugin.
    Now some DivX videos play, some don't... So maybe I should re-install the DivX Web Plugin? But the Web Plugin never worked for me ... If I re-install it, won't I go back to where I started?

    It could be that your previous DivX player was out of date.
    As Perian says, you need both.
    First, I certainly wish you (or my search of Apple Discussions, which, inexplicably, did not turn up this discussion) had referred me to this discussion before -- it would have saved a LOT of time.
    Now, to your reply to Philippe Pauwels:  "As Perian says, you need both." Both WHAT, exactly?
    From the initial release of Perian 0.5, September 29, 2006, to the latest release, Perian 1.2.2 - Tuesday, April 13, 2011, there is not a single mention of DivX in the entire 2006 to 2011 version history. The only information on the Perian support page regarding DivX is the paragraph that states, in part, "Please consider removing obsolete QuickTime Components: ...DivX, DivX Decoder..."
    Can you please tell me what you mean by "Perian says, you need both," in regard to putative DivX Extensions, Plug-Ins, Components, whatever?
    Finally, on July 12, 2009, you posted, in a reply to martin Alper, a list of  "the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear/play pretty much everything that the net can throw at you." Taking into consideration that it's 2 years later and most versions have newer updates -- including Mac OS X itself -- some items are no longer among us, and some NEW ones have shown up. could you please update or comment on this list, for the benefit of all sufferers?
    Thank you very much,

    It is known to work in the great majority of cases with Safari 3 and 4, QT 7.4.x, 7.5.x and 7.6 and OS 10.4.11 and 10.5.7.
    Download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
    RealPlayer 11.1 for Mac from:
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/15540
    Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/overview.htm (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
    Perian from http://perian.org/
    You should read this support page http://perian.org/#support in case you need to delete older codecs.
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlas h
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
    It is suggested that you first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    You should also ensure that you have downloaded and installed the correct version for your Mac of Security Update 2009-001 (and for Tiger only, 2009-002). (N.B. Security Updates require both a restart and a permission repair.)
    In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them). However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from http://www.divx.com/divx/mac/
    Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them) to enable Java.
    Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz, and that you have selected 'Built in Audio'.
    Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
    You should also consider having the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.
    There is an additional 'fix' you could try if you are having problems with Flash and Quicktime, depending on which type of Mac you have:
    On Intel Macs, make sure that you are not running Safari in Rosetta. You can check this, and change it, in the Get Info window.
    On PPC Macs, go to the Hard Disk/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, and drag the file 'QuickTime Plugin.webplugin' to the desktop. Quit and restart Safari. If things have improved you can trash that file. If they haven't put it back, as the lack of this plug-in can cause QT content in some widgets to cease functioning.
    And there is an additional kid on the block: SilverLight. Microsoft has created their own version of what a replacement for Flash could be. You can read more about it here:
    http://silverlight.net/
    So, if you go to any sites that have been designed for this new Silverlight stuff, you can download the plug-in from here (but make certain that you are downloading SilverLight v.1.0 for OS X (10.4.8 upwards) if you are using a PPC Mac. Version 2 only works with Intel Macs:
    http://silverlight.net/GetStarted/
    Recommendation: Close all applications before installing any of the above, repair permissions, reboot, and repair permissions again.
    Thanks again

    PS: You wrote "It is a pity you chose a camera that produces video in that format! As you have discovered it is incompatible with iMovie." Uhh, I don't know where this question came from -- more stray copying and pasting, perhaps? I have no camera, and am not trying to do anything pertinent to this discussion with iMovie.

  • Problem with Twitter for Mac notifications

    Hello,
    I have a strange problem with Twitter for Mac. On both my home and office Macs. New posts appear in app window but there aren't any notifications even though notifications are set in preferences to show in both dock and menubar. Perhaps anyone noticed similar strange behaviour? I didn't find anything similar on Twitter forums.
    Thanks in advance.

    go to Terminal and post this:
    /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/support/lsregister -kill -seed
    if it doesn't have that specific directory try this:
    /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -seed
    once the scanning is done (can be short or long, depends on how heavy your system is) RESTART the computer.
    when you're back, go to Apple>system preferences>extensions.... guess who's there.
    I hope it helped.
