So frustrated about swf movies not playing....any help?
Seems to be I have a very familiar problem with a multitude of similar posters and online questions about why a .swf project file will properly embed and preview within Dreamweaver CS4 when previewing in browser but when loaded to my server the .swf only shows a blank white box (empty skin). I have trolled posted for two days looking for answers and see several posts that talk about the same issue with several different apparent solutions and several that are never resolved.
below I will past my code in hopes that someone will see a problem and suggest a solution. please note that I have ensured that all my assets are on my server where they should be...so the `MOVIE`.swf, expressInstall.swf and swfobject_modified.js (both in a Scripts folder) are all there. The swf previews completely fine in both DWCS4 and FlashCS4 locally, but everything falls apart when it is on the server!!!!
Final note about my particular issue....the .swf I created in particular originates as two .flv movies controlled by button actions using actionscript 3.0 within my flash .swf. - I have an entirely different .swf project that involves no .flv assets that works flawlessly both locally and uploaded to my server.
DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY HELP THEY CAN OFFER....THIS IS MADNESS......I specifically bought DW for it`s supposed great integration with Flash and am finding it is a lesson in frustration and not working.
Here is my code:

Thanks, I think that might be the key here for me....
When I created the .swf in Flash CS4 I imported the .flv files as "load with external playback component", which seems to reference the oringal .flv files. Moving them or renaming them locally on my computer would render the .swf non-functional for movie playback locally...so YES I certainly do need .flv files for my .swf to reference as the movies are not re-encoded into the published .swf I do see an option to do this however so it is food for thought on if this embedded method may be better in my situation.
The thing remaing for me to fix now seems to be how to properly reference the .flv files on the remote server when they and the properly configured .swf file are all uploaded. I see how I can change the .flv source in the properties window within Flash but I will have to do a bit of testing to make sure that it follows a logical and working path when uploaded to my server.
Hope that all makes sense...if anyone has any input on how best to finish this up or suggest on if I am on the right path I'd love to hear from them!
Thanks for the help, btw.

DVD Drive will not play ANY movies
I seem to have the standard drive for the 15 inch MacBook Pro (bought less than one year ago), but it simply will not play ANY movie DVD I've tried. It whirrs and whirrs but nothing happens. I've tried multiple movies and none have worked. Yet it works fine with software cd's and loading on of new programs, and burned CDs with pictures display just fine. I checked the System info on the drive and notice that the last line - which is media - had a 'no' next to it. Is it not turned on or programmed to play movies??? If so, how do I activate it? Thanks for any help.
My MBP plays DVD and says no also, so that is not it. Sounds broken to me. Call Applecare and I do hope you paid for the 3 year Applecare. Did it EVER play DVDs?

OVI music will not play any music on PC any more
Hi there
I have 5800 CWM phone and the CWM licence expired in October 2010. Tthat's fine, as I was able to keep playing the music I had downloaded on both my registered PC and the phone itself.
After a little while I could no longer transfer music from PC to phone. I have about 20GB of music and the phone has about 5GB of space for music so periodically I would transfer different stuff to the phone.
Then I started being unable to play some songs on the PC at all - licence problems for some songs while others would play OK.
Now I can not play any music on the PC at all. I'm getting an error messge saying there is no licence, then an optimistic message saying "Your licence is being delivered" which would not happen. Then I would get a message saying I needed to delete the song/album and redownload it from my download history. I can see my download history but no longer have an option to re-download it - I can only buy it.
Additionally I am now getting a messge saying that "We can't sign you in" and that I need an OVI Music account which I already have. I can login to Ovi.com with it just fine.
This is starting to get really tiresome. From having a handset which i could download any music for a year and keep after the year was up, on both the PC and the phone. I now only have the music that is already on the phone. The remaining music I can't access and indeed can't play any of it at all on the PC.
Does anyone else have this kind of problem that has been fixed? BTW it is now a level 3 support problem with no fix in sight. Sorry for the long post.
Cheers
Periwinklehi,I have the same problem and this,given the fact that i ave a one year unlimited licence for downloads. I am convinced that Nokia India is fooling people with these type of tactics and therefore I have consulted my lawyers to file a suit or Rs. 1.5 crores against the company for harming my legal interets as a consumer. I am confident that after this NOkia gets to know about my suit, they wil all stop this illegal practices of cheating the consumers.

Itunes 6.0.5 will not play ANY files
Hi. I just upgraded to version 6.0.5 and itunes will not play any of the files in my library. No error message or file location error is diplayed when I try to play a file. The song title is displyed in the main window, but the file does not progress.
I tried to troubleshoot it myself with apple support, but only found some information about checking the compatilibity mode settings --that was not the problem.
Anyone else experience this? I'd really appreciate any suggestions or information on how I can solve this problem. Thanks a bunch!is the little diamond-shaped thingy staying firmly stuck to the left, raisingirl?
if so, let's try a careful standalone QT 7.1 reinstall.
download and save a copy of the QT 7.1 standalone installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
Quicktime 7.1 Standalone Installer
if that install goes through okay, does your itunes play music properly again?
(if you get an error message on the QT standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.) -
ITunes 12 not playing ANY videos
I am looking for help with iTunes 12 not playing ANY Purchased Videos or Previews. I am running Yosemite and since installing both none of the videos work. I only get the HDCP error messages. I have nothing else hooked up to the Macbook Pro Mid 2012. I can transfer videos to IPAD and IPHONE without any problems, just can't watch shows on my laptop. Didn't have any of these issues prior to the two recent updates; both HD and SD worked just fine.
I am having the exact same issue after I upgraded my early 2013 15" Macbook Pro Retina to Yosemite. I am unable to play any of my iTunes purchased movies either from iCloud or locally from my computer. I receive the HDCP error. I have no external monitor connected nor am I using AirPlay or anything of that nature. I even tried manually switching graphics cards and can't get any of them to play.
I have a hunch that it has something to do with the Yosemite upgrade. Before I upgraded my OS, I did download and use iTunes 12 on Mavericks and had no issues playing my content. However right after the upgrade, I received the errors. -
My ipod classic (5th generation) is not playing any audio. when i play a song the little picture of the album cover comes up and the seconds clock and the blue line come up and change/move, but there is no sound. i have tried multiple speakers/ear buds and i have tried to reset it but notheing worked.
What should i do?Assuming that you actually have the volume turned up (you don't say that you have, after all), make sure that the Volume Limit is not turned all the way down.
Look in the Settings/Volume Limit menu. The small arrow controls the volume as well. -
FCP X will not play any video.
FCP X will not play any video. I can skim the audio but can not playback anything. I can move things aroun in the timeline and do everthing else but no play. When I press play or space It will freeze with my favorite beach ball until I force quit. I have deleted all preferences and the app and reinstalled from scratch. Didn't change anything. I was able to export out a project without being able to see it untill the export finished, in full res with no issues.
I am using an Imac 10 with Dual core 3.06ghz and 16gb ram on 10.6.8Spoke to Apple Rep today: Everything works in a new user. Duh I should have thought of that. He at first was telling me that 256 vram was barely enough to run FCPX and my dual monitors was part of the problem with too many things on the bus 1 usb drive 2 usb printers 1 usb apc, Firewire 400 DVD and Lacie drive, and a Drobo He didn't like the Drobos. Unhooked everything... Didn't help.
He Did say that with A DSLR you must Render on import. Tried that Didn't help. I need tosee if that holds water. Off to figure out my User issues But at least I can get back to work. -
Movie 11 will not play any of the projects I have created over the past several months. It will play iMovie events. Anyone else having this problem? Please help - Thanks
Thanks for the suggestion...
I just got back from the Apple Store for the second visit with the Mac Genius to try to resolve the problem.
First visit we trashed the iMovie 11 application and reinstalled iMovie and ran a software update. Upon relaunching we were pleased that all projects and events ran perfectly from both the HD and the Drobo.
After lugging my 27" iMac back home and restarting it the same problem appeared. I returned to the Apple store for a second visit. This time I left the iMac at the store overnight. The apple service guys were able to duplicate the problem and wiped my hard drive. There appears to be a bug with iMovie 11 (not confirmed) and an elevated report was submitted to Apple engineers.
I am leaving my "old" projects and events on the external drive unless I need to import them. I am not going to restore from back up and will use a "clean" version of iMovie11. No guarantees the problem won't come back. This issue consumed a TON of my time.... hopefully Apple can fix iMove11. -
I'm running Mavericks 10.9.3, updated iTunes earlier today, but although I can play audio CDs, DVDs will not play, any suggestions?
Hello there, tomazdes.
The following Knowledge Base article written for the USB SuperDrive, offers some practical steps to try when issues present themselves with particular content playback (feel free to skip Step 3 when working with an iMac or MacBook with built-in drives):
Apple Computers: Troubleshooting the slot-loading SuperDrive
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2801
Particularly:
Accepts discs but they don't mount or are automatically ejected
Make sure the drive is not placed upside down. The aluminum enclosure should be facing up as shown in section 1.
Check the disc's surface for scratches and dirt, since these things can prevent the disc from appearing on the desktop.
Connect the MacBook Air SuperDrive directly to the computer's USB port instead a USB hub.
Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).
Ensure your drive can read the specific type of disc being used. The System Profiler or System Information may provide additional information regarding what media your computer supports.
OS X Snow Leopard v10.6 or earlier: Open Apple System Profiler by choosing "About this Mac" from the Apple () menu. Then, click More Info.
OS X Lion v10.7 and later: Click the Apple () menu and then hold down the Option key. Choose System Information from the menu.
If the disc continues to not be recognized, contact Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider, or make an appointment with an Apple Retail Store.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

My Shuffle will not play any songs
my shuffle will not play any songs. when i turn it on the green light stays on for about ten secs and nothing happens. it is the same way when i switch it to the last swtich thing. i have reset it and restored it and updated it and nothing seems to work. it was working fine 2 days ago and it started yesterday to give me problems. any suggestions would be greatly appreacated.
Just try charging it properly, make sure you're inserting it into a proper high-power usb port (and not necessarily a high speed usb 2.0 ) and you can make sure its charging if the light turns amber (orange). You should leave it to charge for 4 hours the first time (from 3 to 6:16 isn't enough), until the light finally turns green, or until u get really bored!

Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the next step
Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
Then release the buttons

iPod will not play any music. Seems like it is in “Pause” mode. No sound from either the head phones or internal speaker. I have 418 songs stored and none will play. I have tried resetting, turning on and off the iPod, etc. but to no avail.
Try restoring from backup. Next would be a restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
