Shockwave Object Disabled?

Using...WIN 8.1   64bit  I.E.11..Shockwave player version 12.0.2.122...pre-installed by Microsoft.
Problem..when trying to view a news article I am told to download Flash Player....which is already installed.
Under "Manage add-ons" it is enabled, but the Abode "test if installed" result is..yes it is installed - but disabled.
I have tried many recommendations (including activeX controls) - except those that require changes to the registry all without success.
Has anyone had this problem AND fixed it?
Help would be much appreciated.
Many thanks Carol

Let's start by first doing a clean install of Flash player, then if it still occurs let's see if we can try fixing permissions.
How do I do a clean install of Flash Player?
How do I fix Windows permission problems with Flash Player?

  • How do I convert a shockwave object file into a mp4 or avi video?

    How do I convert a shockwave object file into a mp4 or avi video?  Do you know of any software that converts that type of file?  

    The M4V format is a video file format developed by Apple and is very close to the MP4 format. The differences are the optional Apple's DRM copyright protection, and the treatment of AC3 (Dolby Digital) audio which is not standardized for the MP4 container.
    If your M4V video is not unprotected M4V files and without AC3 audio. It may be recognized and played by other video players by changing the file extension from ".m4v" to "mp4".
    So you can try to change the file extension and check if it works. If it doesn't work, try Leawo video converter(for windows or mac) and convert m4v to mp4 format.

  • Adobe Flash shared objects disabled

    On or about 11-4-2013 I was trying to access the television company channel ABC and I kept receiving the following message:"Adobe Flash shared objects disabled)" The help desk sent on 11-8-2013 a response as to how I should fix the problem.  Unfortunately I really do not have a clue where find the information to change it.  Should I be in Adobe when I "find" the area to change or should I be on the ABC webpage?

    Perhaps it would be better to post your question in the Flash or the Flash Player forum. This is the Reader one.

  • Shockwave flash disabled but I'm unable to update?? WHY?

    plugins disabled- java and flash. Unable to update. Have updated from their websites with everything else closed- still no update. Have followed the questions here, nothing works-being told 'The plugin check page is having some bugs today.' does not resolve a recurring problem that has continued for weeks. Would you prefer we all changed to a different browser that a) did not disable plugins arbitrarily and b) enabled updates when these were suggested?
    This should be a simple situation but for some reason mozilla is making it REALLY difficult- not to mention the fact that I had to register just to pose the question. PUH!

    nope, still not working. Have removed all copies of Flash via control panel as the other options did not function. Downloaded latest version and will not install.
    Java still disabled also. This is ridiculous! What is the point of a browser in which there is very little that one can actually browse without plugin problems???

  • How to disable checking for updates for Shockwave plug-in?

    SOS: how can I disable checking for updates (and reporting
    that there is one) for a Shockwave object on a web page?
    I have a client with an older Shockwave version, and it's a
    royal pain for each user to be told there's a newer veriosn and do
    you want to download...
    Any help gratefully received.

    I have zero experience of macs.
    Can't you install Silverlight and the plugin for all users rather than a specific one?
    I would guess/hope/expect there'd then be one plist file for everyone?

  • Unsupported script object error

    I haven't been able to play any of my games today. They keep telling me I need to update my flash player, but my Windows 8 does it automatically. Sometimes they tell me I need to enable Flash, but it is already enabled. I use IE 10, but I also tried Firefox and Chrome browsers. I also re-booted my PC to no avail. I tried deleting history and allowed all add-ons. I now get a Java script object error. My Active X is disabled and my Shockwave object flash player is enabled. Can you walk me through all my settings and fix this issue?

    Javascript errors are usually caused by the website offering Flash content.
    Different browsers use different Javascript engines.  Do you get the same errors when using Firefox or Chrome?

  • 30EA1 /2.*: Double-clicking objects in the navigator tree

    Hi,
    There is an inconsistency in double-clicking objects in the navigator tree:
    When Preferences - Database - ObjectViewer - Open Objects on Single Click is checked, double-clicking e.g. a table in the navigator will still open it the same way as single-clicking it.
    However, when Preferences - Database - ObjectViewer - Open Objects on Single Click is not checked, double-clicking the table in the navigator will open it, and expand the columns. The latter is quite irritating, especially on large tables.
    Can this be bugged, so double-clicking the table in the navigator will just open it?
    Thanks,
    K.

    The node is expanded on double click irrespective of what the preferenceIs this a typo or does it really expand always for you? For me it only expands with "single click objects" disabled.
    windows explorer also does the sameYes, and I'd even say that's the desired behaviour, especially since it's the only action taken.
    Common sense and standards are against taking 2 different actions at the same time. One should override the other.
    Ideally, double click with "single click objects" disabled would just open the object, and double click with "single click objects" enabled could expand the node as in the Windows Explorer (but doesn't have to).
    So that's almost completely the other way around as we get it now.
    Thanks,
    K.

  • Shockwave Won't Install (Windows 8, PC, Google Chrome)

    Hello,
    I am on a PC running Windows 8. My browser is Google Chrome. I am trying to install the newest shockwave player, and I have downloaded the installer multiple times, and the installation window finished loading and then only gave me the option to close the window, so I thought it was done. I've restarted my computer several times, and tried to uninstall shockwave. When I first was attempting to install it, even before uninstalling my previous version, the shockwave checker said that I had no version of shockwave installed at all, which I don't think was true because now I can run fewer things than I could before using the uninstallation wizard. So now I've uninstalled whatever version I had (I think), and tried to install the new version multiple times and the shockwave checker still says that shockwave is either not installed or disabled on my machine.
    I have gone to the chrome plugins page and even after supposedly uninstalling everything and restarting my computer, it still lists:
    Adobe Flash Player - Version: 17.0.0.169
    Shockwave Flash 17.0 r0
    I have this plugin enabled still, so shockwave being disabled shouldn't be the issue.
    I have also tried to keep running everything in desktop mode my hitting the windows key+D, so that shouldn’t be the problem either.
    When I go to the page that allows you to click on the download button for Shockwave, I do get something called "Shockwave_Installer_Slim" to start downloading. When I click on it, the installation window I mentioned above just runs, the bar finishes loading, and then all it does is gives me an option to close the window. Nothing actually happens. I have about 5 copies of that same file on my computer from trying to download it multiple times. From the page where you can clock the button to install shockwave, after I click next to get to page 3/3, I feel like something isn't loading right because I only get a mostly-blank screen with "Thank you, here is another product that might interest you:" at the top, but no graphics - just grey. (Link below)
    Adobe - Adobe Shockwave Player
    How can I fix this? I just want shockwave installed and enabled on my computer. I do think it is downloaded, but it's not working because when I go to my control panel, it gives me the option to uninstall shockwave 12.1, but all the shockwave checkers still say that my stuff isn't installed/enabled.

    On chrome, nothing runs (ignore the stuff in the top right corner, that's what i used to take the screenshot):
    On IE, something used to show up, but after using the flash player uninstaller I'm not getting anything, so now I just see this:
    I could be confusing the two, I don't really know. If it helps at all, When I got to the "Test your Adobe Flash Player Installation" link on the welcome page window, it says "You have version 17,0,0,169 installed" when I'm in chrome, but it says "You have version 11,3,372,94 installed" when I'm in IE. Also, when I click on the "Test your Adobe Flash Player Installation" link (Adobe - Flash Player) in Chrome, I see no animation at the top of the screen. However, when I do the same in IE, there is an animation at first which then changes to an advertisement (screenshot of the animation playing in IE is included below). The fact that any version is installed at all is really confusing to me, because I thought I uninstalled everything, and when I go into the control panel under Programs>Uninstall a Program, there isn't anything with Adobe, Shockwave, Macromedia, or Flash Player in the name.
    Also, the reason I'm trying to download it is because when my niece tries to play one of her games, she is getting this message:
    ERROR : You don't have the latest Shockwave x plugin.
    You can download the plugin here:
    http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download
    Upon successful installation, please restart your computer, reload this game, and enjoy! Contact the customer support of www.macromedia.com for any issues with upgrading this plugin.

  • Best practices for disabling an employees account, but leaving mailbox available for others while not accepting messages

    I'm sure that other organizations have some policy for this. In our case, we want to keep the mailbox available for others to still access, but disable the user account and remove it from OWA.
    In this case, I've disabled the AD object, disabled OWA from the features, and set the mailbox to only receive emails from a dummy mailbox (so that no new emails are accepted).
    This all works fine and senders receive a NDR that their mail was rejected, however I'd also like to set a friendlier custom NDR to call the office instead when any sender attempts to send email to that recipient.
    What would best practices, suggestions be for this behavior?

    Hi,
    According to your description, the user object in AD has been disabled.
    In this case, the mailbox cannot mostly likely be accessed. Thus, maybe OOF couldn’t help you.
    If I misunderstand your meaning, please feel free to let me know.
    And we can depend on transport rule:
    The recipient is
    send rejection message to sender with enhanced status code:

  • Red Light with Authorization Object in PFCG

    Hello All - I have a question with authorization objects, there are three roles with red lights 'ON' in authorization object screen in our PRD. However users who are using these roles have no auth issues, standard procedure is to make all lights green in PFCG by maintaining these auth objects.
    Big question is "what is the down fall by leaving these objects RED, I need to support my theory when I say all lights green with auth objects.
    Why best practise says maintain all lights to green?
    Please suggest, appreciate your suggestions.
    Thanks.
    Edited by: AJ on May 12, 2009 9:44 PM

    Hi,
    > "What will be the difference between leaving that red lights 'ON' vs "disabling" these red objects? (I am bit confused on this).
    Red Object: As you know that authorization Objects comprises of Authorization fields. There are certain fields, which are known as "Organization Level" fields and need to be maintained Centrally. If you miss this fields, then the traffic light icon is RED. For all other authorization fields, light will be Yellow if you miss any blank field to maintain. During check, these fields will provide missing authorization (but you may not get error if same object is present in the role with all fields maintained status).
    Disabled Object: If you make any Object Disable, then during check, this Object will not be treated for checking Authorizations. But profile generator will keep this in mind, so you don't get Standard Objects repeatedly (if already present in Deactivated status also) whenever you go to "..Merge with New Data".
    You all other questions are very nicely answered already.

  • Object params

    New to this but I have a flash image gallery on a site I'm working on. I want three images side by side which I have, but the images fade to the next image the same time. I want each of the three images to scroll independantly from each other at different times. Meaning image one is not the same as image two and image three is different than the first two images as well at any given time while the flash is loaded. Anyway, isnt it just a matter of defining a parameter similar to the quality "high" parameter? I couldnt figure out how to post code here so id anyone needs to see it, please tell me how..lol Newbies! what can you do?

    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}

  • Flash/Shockwave Relationship

    Our organization approves Flash 8 as a standard for some
    training development. We have the Flash 8 player on our desktops
    and users may not install anything higher.
    We recently had some issues with Flash elements that did not
    display correctly on all desktops. They were (so the Vendor says)
    developed in Flash 8. If you go to the Windows Control Panel and
    look at the software list (Add/Remove Programs) it shows Flash 8
    installed. If you go to adobe.com/products/flash/about it reports
    Flash 6. If you then install Shockwave 10, the file displays
    properly and the adobe.com/products/flash/about page now reports
    Flash 8.
    What has happened? IS Shockwave 10 considered an integral
    part of Flash 8? Did the developer use extensions that go beyond
    the basic Flash 8 player? Please email me at: [email protected]
    if you have an answer.
    Thank you.

    I just had this problem happen and this is what i did to solve it.
    1. I downloaded CCleaner from the App store (free) and ran the cleaner to erase unnecessary files.
    2. Update JAVA. www.java.com
    3. Open Chrome and went to Settings , scroll to nottom and choose advanced settings, privacy, conmtent settings: make sure "allow local data to be set (recommended)" is chosen, then click on "Cookies and site data" and choose "remove all". IMPORTANT: now click on "Disable individual plug-ins..." in the Plug-ins section.
    4. A new window will appear. Scroll down to Flash Player and review your flash player (shockwave) installations. disable all versions. CLOSE all windows. Restart Chrome.
    5. go to THIS link to MANUALLY choose your version of Shockwave:             http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/otherversions/
    6. Under Step 1 Choose your OS and under Step 2 choose the most recent version of shockwave (Ver 12.*.*)
    7. OPEN the pkg. and choose Shockwave_Uninstaller.app to remove previous versions.
    *. When complete, go back and nbow choose Shockwave_Installer_Full.app
    7. after installation if your problems persist, you have other issuea that may be the culprit and must do advanced troubleshooting. I will post "advanced Troubleshooting" in new reply.

  • Monitoring of Disabled Application Pools and Websites

    So we have a SCOM 2012 SP1 environment monitoring an IIS server that's Server 2012.  The IIS server has all of the App Pools that are not in use disabled as well the Default website is also disabled.  SCOM unfortunately still picks up that these
    are unavailable and complains ad nauseum.  
    So the real quest is, is the disabled state going to be picked up eventually? (Now two days later the server objects themselves are Healthy, so I assume I can just close the alerts but ...)

    Yes, you can disable alerts of this specific object{Disabled application pools and websites}

  • Removing Shockwave Updater icon from taskbar

    How do I get rid of the Shockwave Updater icon in the System Tray? I tried right/left/middle & double clicking on it and nothing happens!?!

    Have you tried just to run the update?  The updater icon should disappear after that.
    Or if you don't want to update at all, disable auto-update: http://helpx.adobe.com/shockwave/kb/disable-auto-update-setting-shockwave.html

  • 'Control Shockwave or SWF' Deprecated (CS4) – What is the new way of controlling a swf

    Hi I have been asked to insert some background music into a website with a simple on/off button.  Following the Adobe Help files I created a SWF file using flash and inserted it into a page and named it. This is working when uploaded but without any control yet. I created a text link and gave it a null link (javascript:;) After selecting the link and choosing ‘Behaviors’, and finding the ‘control shockwave or SWF ‘(in the deprecated folder) the ‘movie:’ drop down selector has found my file. I select’ Go to frame’ and type in 2 (as advised in the help file), and click OK. I get the message about Netscape which I ignore and choose OK, and then I get another message ‘Please select a Shockwave object name or click cancel’. There is only one SWF file and it is already selected. I am experiencing a problem here, however,does anyone know if there is a more up-to-date way of achieving what I am trying to do considering that the behaviour is deprecated anyway? Any help appreciated Thanks

    You build your control interface in flash. When you publish your flv flash will create 2 files one for the controls and one for your 'normal' swf file.
    You must upload both these files to the server for it to work.
