Shockwave player problem

I uploaded shockwave player to my webspace. When I go to my
url the shockwave player does not run automatically,instead the
index of/ page appears. only when I double click on NAME does it
run.
can anyone let me know how to fix this?

Unfortunately this is another welcom surprise from our
friends at microsoft. They disabled object, embed and applet by
default which disables all activex controls which relies on those
HTML commands. This really sucks big time, but it is not some
setting you can alter or disable. Not by code and not in any
browsersetting.
We are in the business of building flashgames, and we think
this is pretty anoying. Not only for us, but for our customers who
buy our games and the visitors who plays them as well.
Think of webdesign agencies who love to build interactive
flash menus etc. This could be very hazardous for users and
developers of flash.

  • Huge IE7-Flash/Shockwave Player Problem

    i just installed IE7 (7.0.5730.11) and wanted to try it out
    on some demanding pages, like those with flash animations,
    shockwave games and integrated media players. everything worked
    fine until i went to www.miniclip.com and started the robot rage
    game (
    http://www.miniclip.com/games/robot-rage/en/).
    signing in was successful and also the choose robot page had no
    problems, but after i chose a robot and got to the workshop every
    single click caused an "iexplore.exe - Application Error" - The
    instruction at [eg.] "0x77ec3593" referenced memory at
    "0x00000010". The memory could not be "read". OK>terminate,
    CANCEL>debug!
    i tried it several times, set all possible IE security and
    advanced settings to lowest possible, everywhere "enable" where
    possible, ran ccleaner (cleaned temp, cookies etc.), restarted my
    notebook and the problem still occurs. sometimes it just hapens
    when i get to the first page where the shockwave application starts
    (there the "send error report" window comes up and the MS crash
    analysis tells me that Macromedia has published a new version of
    the flash player (i definitely have the most recent one), but
    mostly i manage to sign in, choose a robot and then when i'm on the
    workshop page every single click anywhere leads to the application
    error.
    since the latest flash player/shockwave player issues are
    from july 21, i supose the problem is indeed caused by the flash
    player, not IE7, since it's not been updated after the end-user
    version of IE7 had been released.
    if anyhow possible, this issue should be reported to Adobe (i
    am not a commercial Adobe customer, so i cannot do that) so they
    can fix that and release a new version of flash/shockwave
    player

    i apologize, i didn't see that i posted it in the wrong
    forum; should be in the flash/shockwave player forum

  • Shockwave Player 10.3.181.26/Firefox 5 problem?

    I recently downloaded Firefox 5 (Gateway laptop with windows 7, if that makes a difference) and when I tried to watch a youtube video, it said I had to download the latest flash player, which gave me Shockwave Player 10.3.181.26 in my plugins. Now since I've done that, I've experienced this problem where sometimes the whole computer will freeze for a couple seconds and then just cut to a black screen, while the cpu is still on and I can still see the light shinging from below the screen on too.
    Im wondering if this is the pflash player itself, or the problem with firefox 5. It happens every so often now and I have to turn off my computer manually each time because it won't go away. What's the problem? Please help

    I use the latest Flash Player with Firefox 5 (on Windows 7), and I do not see any such problem.
    Try to
    update your display adapter drivers
    disable Hardware Acceleration (Flash Player Settings)

  • Shockwave player strange problem

    my problem is really strange to me, i am not sure if someone here can tell me what happen.
    i have a desktop and 3 users running shockwave with no problems, all chrom, firefox or IE.
    Few months ago, i forgot how long exactly it was, the shockwave player start to crash in my user account, i did not access to check whether the other two account in my desktop. i try with difference browser, IE or Firefox (i mainly use chrome) all of them are not work. First crash then the screen turn into green.
    i try to uninstall or reinstall all flash player & shockwave player but no luck, i finally restore my computer to about a month ago and its work again.
    i did not realise that my wife's account and the other were not able to play video in youtube or any shockwave require web page. i again try to uninstall or reinstall all flash & shockwave again & again but with no luck and when no other option, i try to create a 4th user  account but not work also.
    because the other two accounts does not create any restore point, so i cannot use the old trick to restore it.
    today, i try to reinstall a new win7 and the same problem appear.
    my suspect is that must be on window 7 update cause this problems.
    does anyone know how is this happen and how to solve it?
    million thanks in advance.

    i have compare the normal user account and the problems user account's windows update history and they are identical, i was suspect that it was the problem source but now this possibility does not exist anymore.
    anyone knew?

  • Probleme Mit Shockwave player 11

    Ich habe Probleme Mit Dem Shockwave player Version 11
    immer wen ich ins"habbo hotel gehe* da benötig man Den
    shockwaveplayer kommt eine meldung dfas ein problem vorliegt und
    mit der version 10 ist es immer geganen also hab ich jetz ne frage
    ob man irgedend wie die version 10 überkommt weil das
    würde es wieder gehen weil es ja vorher gegangen ist.

    Guten Tag!,
    Zwei Dinge könnten falsch gelaufen sein:
    Szenario 1: Windows-Updates könnten in den letzten Tagen stattgefunden haben, was zur Folge hatte, dass der Sniffer nicht in der Lage war die richtigen Eigenschaften des Anzeigegerätes zu erkennen.
    Lösung: Entfernen Sie alle kürzlich installierten Windows-Updates und testen Sie dann erneut.
    Szenario 2: Anzeigegeräte-Treiber aktualisiert
    Lösung:
    a. Installieren Sie den früheren Gerätetreiber.
    b. Wenn Schritt (a) nicht funktioniert, gehen Sie zu der nVidia-Treiber-Seite und laden Sie den vorletzten Gerätetreiber (nicht den neuesten, gehen Sie eine Version zurück) und installieren Sie diesen. Wenn die Installation beim ersten Mal nicht funktioniert, können Sie dies im Abgesicherten Modus tun.
    Vielen Dank!

  • Shockwave player version detection problem

    hello;
    I am using a vbscript that uses
    [code]
    For i = 20 To 1 Step -1
    CreateObject( "ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash." + CStr( i ) )
    Next
    [/code]
    I have uninstalled shockwave from my computer;
    however the script gets a positive hit on i=9, implying that
    I have shockwave version 9 on my computer;
    are there any other checking methods that I should use?
    thanks
    dsdsdsdsd

    Hello,
    with your script you detect the version of the "(Shockwave)
    Flash Player" (development tool: Macromedia/Adobe Flash) not of the
    "Shockwave Player" (development tool: Macromedia/Adobe Director).
    So it's normal that a uninstall of the "Shockwave Player" has no
    effect on the result of your script .
    Greetings

  • Firefox Plugins lists Shockwave Flash 12.0.0.70 but Adobe lists this as Adobe Flash Player, and Version 12.0.9.149 as Adobe Shockwave Player, so wtf is going on

    Flash causes us all immense confusion, and Firefox is adding to the problem.
    My Firefox Add-ons page lists (under Plugins -- isn't there a difference?) that I have:
    Shockwave Flash 12.0.0.70 which is set to "Always Activate".
    Adobe websites list:
    Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.70
    Adobe Shockwave Player 12.0.9.149
    -- so what on earth is the Firefox-listed "Shockwave Flash"?
    This simply adds to the utter confusion already surrounding Flash Player -- which I cannot find anywhere amongst my Programs -- but which I can find under "Uninstall or change a Program" where it is listed as "Adobe Flash Player 12 Plugin".
    There is also the thorny issue of FlashPlayer vs. FlashPlayerDownloader......
    I need a flash of inspiration to get me out of shock -- I'm not waving, I'm drowning!

    In the internals of the plugin it is still referenced as Shockwave Flash. That hasn't changed as it would break websites that check for a specific plugin name. You can see that on the about:plugins page and in the properties of the Flash plugins file.
    You can open the Web Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer) and paste this JavaScript code in the command line to see how the Adobe Flash Player plugin identifies itself:
    <pre><nowiki>console.log(navigator.plugins["Shockwave Flash"].name);
    console.log(navigator.plugins["Shockwave Flash"].description);
    </nowiki></pre>
    *https://developer.mozilla.org/Tools/Web_Console
    On disk you will also see Macromedia for folder names used by the plugin.
    *32 bit Windows: C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash\
    *64 bit Windows: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\
    * C:\Users\&lt;user&gt;\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\

  • Old movie will not play in new shockwave player

    Hi, I have searched the forums, Adobe support and web in
    general for help on this, but to my surprise have not found
    anything. I created some Shockwave movies perhaps 5 years ago for
    science education and have not used Director since then. I just
    received a report that the movies are broken and will not play.
    This is happening on WinXP in IE and in Firefox with the latest
    Shockwave player installed, but the movies work fine on OSX 10.4.8
    in Safari and Firefox, also with the latest Shockwave player
    installed. I am not a Director developer anymore and do not own a
    current version of the program, I am primarily a scientist and
    educator. I'm hoping the problem is in the code that embeds the
    movie, and that the movies are still compatible with the new
    Shockwave player on Windows. Can anyone help out, please? One of
    the movies can be found at

  • Shockwave Player and Safari

    I was on a web site and received the message that to view certain content I would need to install Shockwave Player. I went to the Adobe site downloaded and installed the mac version. Everything seemed to install properly. When I went back to the site that I needed the player for I got a pop up message saying I needed to launch Safari in 32 bit mode. The problem is that when I click ok on this message Safari freezes, I can't relaunch it or close the window. So I force quit Safari from the Apple menu. If I then go to the finder and set Safari to open in 32 bit it will launch and display the content on that site properly. However I don't really want to keep Safari in 32 but if I don't, any site I go to that requires the player will now freeze Safari requiring me to force quit again.
    So I ran the Shockwave uninstaller after which I can go to those sites but of course can't view the content but at least Safari doesn't freeze up. However I realized that at least that one site had worked in Firefox prior to my installing and uninstalling the player. Of course now even Firefox won't display that content since I've uninstalled it telling me I need a plugin but when I click that it tells me an applicable plugin cannot be found and that I will need to manually install one. Of course that would take me back to where I was with Safari freezing up on those sites unless it's already in 32 bit mode. I'm using Safari 5.0.1 on OS 10.6.4 Is there a way to rectify this short of always running Safari in 32 bit?

    Further, "As of July 2010, Adobe has not announced future plans for 64-bit native Shockwave Players."
    I'm not sure it's worth installing it again. If it were just a matter of launching Safari in 32 bit mode I might do it if it were something I really wanted to see but since Safari always freezes after that pop up message requiring me to force quit, it seems like too much of a hassle to me.

  • When I try to update the shockwave player it asks for authorisation tick box then it says close fifefox which closes the whole thing down and back to square one, any help please

    shockwave keeps crashing all the time so I tried to up date the shockwave player from the add on section. The problem here is that you have to tick the I agree box which then tells you firefox is in conflick and you have to close it down which takes you back to square one.

    save the installation file to your hard disk, then close FF and run the installation file.
