Sound in swf not importing

Hi,
I have a swf file that was done in Flash 7. I need to bring
this file into Flash 8. However, when I do this, the sound no
longer plays. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, is there a
"work around?"
Thanks!

When I import the swf into Flash 8, the movie clip has no
sound properties in the properties window. Each frame has sound
within the movieclip but they do not play. The swf plays fully when
played in it's original form within an html page. There are no
outside sound files present to hear the sound.
I don't know how to decompile the swf except to save it to a
timeline in a movieclip. Is there another method?
Thanks!

  • Sound in SWF not working in PDF

    Hi all, I did a childrens book some time ago and I just reopened it in CS 5, applied the page turn animation to it and output it as SWF. It worked fine as an embedded SFW in the pdf - no problems.
    I then decided to add sound to each page and set the behaviour for the sound to start and stop as the pages are turned.
    This was all good when I tested the SWF outside Acrobat. I open the page - the sound plays
    I then added the swf output with the sound from InDesign to a PDF file. Everything works fine except - no sound.  Is there a way to embed the audio files in the SWF? I think this is probably the problem but I'm open to other suggestions.
    Best, Steve

    Any thoughts??

  • Having issues with importing a FLV from Adobe Connect. Either the file is too large to import, the file corrupt or the sound will not play. In the Flash Pro 5.5 version it can only be viewed with sound but will not import so it cannot be converted, the ne

    I'm searching for an answer to almost the same exact problem, using almost the same exact hardware and software. Has an answer been found?
    The files that I'm trying to burn come from eMusic, and they are formatted mp3. Recently, (after the iTunes update to 9.2.3?,) they would not drag and drop from iTunes into Toast. From several different discussions I've tried working around this by dragging to the desktop first then dragging and dropping to Toast, going to Toast from a programmer's homemade help window, " iToons," and today, after talking with Apple support, going directly to Toast from my eMusic folder. Alas, all recordings do not perform like they use to. Sometimes they play and sometimes not. There is one I managed, that is listenable, but sometimes I have to put it in my car stereo over and over again as it gets ejected with an error code, sometimes, finally it takes it... Some of the recordings on other disks I've burned are not clean - they have white-noise sounds creeping in... I use to have none of these problems. One time as I was listening to a CD that managed to play, and it just stopped playing... Is there an answer out there to get back to how it use to be? Thanks for you help.

  • How do I fix sound not importing properly from a Fuji video capture (MPEG, 48000 compressed) on Premier Elements 11 (just imports chopped noise)?

    Can anyone help?  When I add .Mov MPEG video file captured with a Fuji camera (1920x1080 image, 29.97 frame rate, 48000Hz stereo compressed sound), although the video is smooth/good, the sound gets added but its just a clipped noise rather than the actual sound track.  The video & sound play fine on all other software on my PC, even if just play the file using Adobe Organizer, BUT Premier will not import it correctly....help...

    Please give us more information.
    What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 11 running on? When you view and listen to the playback of the Timeline video in the Edit area monitor, are you working with the rendered or unrendered Timeline?
    What is the model/settings of the Fuji camera that recording the video? The settings seem to be for 1080 but is that 1080i or 1080p?
    Are you saying that your video has a .mov file extension? What is the significance of MPEG video - I am thinking in terms of video compression? AVCHD, H.264, MotionJPEG, or other for video compression?
    What are you or the project setting as the project preset to match the properties of the source video?
    (See Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and the readings for Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Size, and Pixel Aspect Ratio (even if they look grayed out.)
    Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer? If you go into Publish+Share/Computer/QuickTime, do you see all the QuickTime presets? Please explore Edit Menu/Preferences/Audio Hardware ASIO settings Input as well as Output.
    We will be watching for your progress.
    Thanks.

  • Sound files not importing

    I have a problem while trying to import any sound file into flash CS5.5. I have not successfully done it since purchasing the program. I have tried opening the file in a sound editor and saving it, as well as trying to convert to a different sound type that is still Flash compatible. I'm trying with .mp3 and .wav files mostly. The error messages i receive are "Couldn't import C://*file location* or else i get"One or more files were not imported because there were problems reading them." I havent figured out a pattern as to why either might be showing or the connection to the file.

    there may be something wrong with the mp3. sometimes i receive mp3 files from clients that i can't import into flash. when that happens, i drag the mp3 into iTunes, select the file, click advanced, click create mp3 version. iTunes creates a new mp3 file which i click and drag out of iTunes (which creates a copy of that new file) into my job folder. flash imports the mp3 i dragged into the job folder. then i go back and delete both versions out of iTunes.
    note: if you don't see that option in iTunes, go to iTunes preferences > general > import settings > mp3 encoder

  • After effects cs6 will not import swf files...

    after effects cs6 will not import swf files...keeps saying it's unsupported. why would this be? what do i need to change?

    What SWF file? What source? How was it generated? SWF generated by Flex/ Flash Server may contain constructs that are incompatible and SWFs that render all their elements dynamically using Flash drawing primitives and use lots of ActionScript may also not work...

    LR 5.6 on Mac desktop all of a sudden will not read any card from any reader but will work on my laptop. I can work on previous images but not import new ones. Even if I create a catalog on laptop and import to my desktop on a thumb drive, the images are only accessible as long as the thumb drive is inserted.

    Sounds like you may need to repair the Disk Permissions on your drive where your images are stored.

  • Lightroom 4.2.  unable to import. message files were not imported because they cannot be read

    Lightroom crisis:
    suddenly, unable to import images into lightroom - A window comes up that says ""Following files were not imported because they cannot be read". I was in the process of importing images - 10 images were imported from the shoot then the import stopped.
    I tested the card and the card readers by using cards from different cameras and using different card readers. I was able to import the images into a folder on my desktop so know nothing is corrupted.. The memory cards are good, my card readers are good. no setting have changed in my camera. Nothing has changed in my routine. Have been using lightroom for several years.
    I import through a card reader, convert to DNG and save on an external hard drive. All very ordinary.
    No one I have contacted has had nor knows of anyone who has had this problem.
    Unable to get in touch with anyone at Adobe.
    Thank you for any help or direction to tec support

    On a quick read, it sounds like the same issue that had me dead in the water for 7 days. (LR 4.2)  I tested everything - my card readers are good, the memory cards are not corrupted, tried different cards from different cameras,etc. Working my way through all my tech savvy friends and professionals, I was lucky to connect with a great sr. tech person at Adobe.  After trouble shooting  all lightroom possibilities (3 hours on the phone) we checked my external hard drive where all the images are stored.  Even tho the external hard drive had plenty of space and "told me" that it was healthy and functioning well, Adobe had me go into the external hard drive's properties/tools and do a "check for errors.  12 hours later after the program went though the drive one file at a time, it found errors, moved them to a separate folder, and now all is functioning OK.  The hard drive had not crashed nor were any images lost.  As can happen after some time there must have been a scratch or similar that prevented more images from being written  (or read) to the drive.  Even though all is working OK at this time, I will replace my external hard drive (and it's back up external drive).just in case there are more "bumps" on the external hard drive.
    My tech knowledge is limited, and I am not intuitive  about anything digital, so can't add any more information then the experience I had.

  • I have Photoshop Elements 9 on an iMac with OS 10.6.8. I bought a new printer/scanner and the program will not import the new scanner to replace the old one. How do I do this?

    I have Photoshop Elements 9 on an iMac with OS 10.6.8. I bought a new printer/scanner and the program will not import the new scanner to replace the old one. How do I do this?

    Thank you for your suggestions. I downloaded a more recent version of Twain, but this didn't help. I also tried closing and opening Photo Shop and restarting my computer without success. Reinstalling Photo Shop sounds like a very promising solution, but I'm  not sure I will do it. In the meantime I can scan items using a printer program. These scans open in Photo Shop. It is an extra step.

  • AVI Files not importing into CS4 from DVD

    I have the DVD disk for Premiere Pro CS4 Classroom In A Book and all the avi files have only sound and when imported into Premiere Pro CS4 a missing codec error warning appears and the file will not import.
    I have to say this problem only occurs with my 27" iMac and not at all with a MacBook Pro or a 20" iMac. I have tried repeatedly to copy the DVD to the 27" iMac but the problem still persists.
    *+Now this is the really weird bit+:*
    Using Screen Sharing from another mac, the files are normal. All other avi files are also normal on the 27" iMac.
    I wondered if anyone can throw any light on this problem?

    I tried a different converter and also changed the playback preferences -which was down at 44.1kHz- up to 96kHz as I know the hi res files are supposed to be up at this level.
    Not sure if it was one or the other of your suggestions, or both, but it has worked, so many thanks for your quick and effective help!

  • Flash 2004 MX will not import .FLA's into the library

    I can't imagine why this is- but if someone has some
    eperience here- I would be so ever grateful.
    I can't get Flash MX 2004 to inport FLA files into the shared
    library. When I select inport/into shared library I get an error
    message that says flash does not recognize the .fla file type and
    wants to know if I should let quick time see if it can recognize
    the file. "Use quicktime instead".
    Here is what I have tried:
    Reset the file types in File/Folder under control panel to
    default- Flash- But all file types were already recognzed- -reset
    was just a deperation hope and prayer.
    Un-installed quicktime then tried to import- no
    un-installed flash- reinstalled flash- tried to import- no
    Installed newest version of Quicktime and then tried to
    import- no
    Reverted to a prior system restore point- then
    Re-installed Flash - tried to import-no
    looked in the registry but could not navigate to anything
    that resembled file extensions-
    Flash saves FLA's and makes SWF's just as it should- opens
    FLA's and sees FLA file types in the saved folder.
    When I initialize the import/to library functon FLA file
    types are not listed unless I select "all file types" in the file
    types drop down- it does recognize SWFs
    Flash did recognize FLA's until I played a Quicktime
    Instruction CD. With no further action on my part, it quit
    importing correctly-
    No viruses are found
    ?? ideas
    Thanks
    -D
    Any other ideas or work-arounds would be greatly
    appreciated-

    Thanks Shane- but when I need to share a library file- I
    select file/ import to library and that is where I get the error- I
    was able to share Flash librarys befor I played the quicktime file-
    and now- unfortunately FLAs are an unrecognized format. And I am no
    longer getting the additional mesage "do you want Quicktime to try
    and open them. Just a message that says "one or more files were not
    imported because there were errors reading them"
    But they open in flash.... which is what I don't understand-
    something has happend that flash no-longer sees the fla file type
    under the File/ Import to Library.
    -D
    Yeah, that would have been a ton of effort... Hopefully a
    little more clarification in the details...

  • Hi, I need to take my daughter off from our Apple account and set up her own. So, delete her from one account and create her own. Realize I sound imbecilic for not knowing how to do this. Any ideas? Thank you so much. Jules

    Hi, I need to take my daughter off from our Apple account and set up her own. So, delete her from one account and create her own. Realize I sound imbecilic for not knowing how to do this. Any ideas? Thank you so much. Jules

    You don't have to take her off your account exactly: she needs to sign out from your account on her computers and devices. Then she can obtain an Apple ID at http://appleid.apple.com and use it to sign into System Preferences or Settings>iCloud.
    However, there are some issue about this. If she has been syncing her calendars and contacts to your account then the data will disappear from her devices, but remain on your account. Individual calendars can be exported  as .ics files and reimported into her account, but if she has her contacts mixed up with yours she will have to enter them individually in the new account (or export yours, import them into hers, and delete the ones she doesn't want.
    More intractable is the email issue. She cannot move an address from your account to hers, so if she has been using a alias on your account to have her own address she cannot transfer it. She will have to create a new email address.

  • Camcorder connected but will not import or show video

    I have a Sony Digital 8 camcorder that used to work well with imovie. Although I have it connected and the blue screen states that the camcorder is connected, imovie will not import the video nor will it show it playing. When I rewind or fast-forward, it will show the counter but I will not get a picture. The play, fast forward and rewind buttons in imovie will operate the camcorder but no image or sound. The import button shows that it is being pressed but still no results. Aill I get is the blue screen with its message of camera connnected.
    I have used different tapes, verified that the tapes have content, rechecked the connections and reset the permissions. Could use any and all advice.
    Thanks

    Hi Richard
    In rare cases this can have happened.
    A. Try Your Camera on another Mac. OK - Then skip the rest !
    B. Control the 6-pin end of Your FW-cable and the connector on Your Mac so
    that it is not broken.
    As You see it is Non-symetrical BUT it can be forced in upside down and if
    You use back side connecter it is even easier while it's hard to see what's
    going on.
    If this has happened = You have a broken Camera.
    It will be controlable by iMovie
    will record and play normally via lens/analog connector
    but - NO import or export via FW-connector
    Analog/digital chip blown. Expencive repair.

  • Sound and settings not working ("Task Host Window" when closing)

    Okay I am not sure where to focus exactly and I am not good at articulating these problems because I don't know much about computers, so I will just try and make a simple list of problems that occured at the exact same time, and therefor must be related:
    I had just installed an update which took quite a while.
    Every time I close down my computer it says "Task Host Window" has to be shut down. It says underneath (translated from Danish): "Assignment host is stopping background tasks
    Sound doesn't work. Not normally or with different speakers or anything like that. The sound icon shows a red circle with an X
    Automatic start up programmes such as Dropbox and Sticky Notes don't start up unless I do no manually
    Most parts of settings just show blank when I try to access them eg. control panel and parts of PC settings
    Saving words documents (I suspect because OneDrive has to be accessed first) is really slow, but once they are saved ctrl+S works like a charm
    I have tried:
    I heard turning off onedrive would help, but when I go to PC setting -> OneDrive it doesn't respond
    I tried a HotFix for Task Host Window but nothing happened
    Trouble Shooting the sound by clicking the sound icon (which has a red circle with an X) tells me 'one or more sound services isn't running' and when I click 'see more ways' it goes to a blank site within control panel
    I suspect there's some simple way to start the sound manually and it's simply being blocked, and honestly if I could just get it to start manually when I needed it, I could live with all these other problems. The sound is the most important!!
    Thank you in advance
    ps. I haven't been able to find my exact operating system and notebook information due to the problems with the settings, but I know it's an EVNY with a sound system by BEATS BY DRE and the operating system is windows 8

  • Some of my clips from my camera are not importing into iMovie`

    I just got a new video camera and I started using iMovie for my first time with it. It's a Panasonic DVD video camera. The first time I loaded my DVD into my computer with it, it imported all of my clips just fine. But now it seems, random clips will not import. When I get my import screen, where I can check and uncheck movies from my DVD to import into iMovie, some clips have thumbnails and import correctly. Other clips have no thumbnail, but instead just have the little "filmstrip" graphic on them. iMovie still knows how many seconds those "mystery" clips are, and it still acts as if it is importing them when I check them. However, they don't show up in iMovie when I go to edit them. They are not blank clips, they simply just don't show up. However, on my camera, ALL of the clips play fine.
    Why is iMovie not gathering thumbnails/importing certain clips but it gathers thumbnails/imports the others? I know the disc and the camera is fine because the camera will play them, sound and video. What is up with my iMovie/computer?

    I'd like to add that after I import these clips without thumbnails, iMovie does give me an error and say that they could not be imported. No explanation as to why, though. Again, they play fine on my camera.
