Sound won't stop in flash

I've been working with adobe flash for about half a year now.
I recently upgraded my computer to Windows vista. I've experienced
no problems until tonight. I recently imported some new sound to
the library (a narration), and it isn't working like it should.
Instead of stopping and starting when I click on the time line, it
just keeps going. It keeps freezing the program, and making it
extremely slow. It's driving me bananas. I've tried deleting and
re-importing the sound, inserting the sound in a new scene, and it
just does the same thing each time. The rest of the scenes are
working fine. What's going wrong? I'm going to go crazy! Please
help

Presss ESC and the sound should stop.

Hard drive sounds-- won't stop running

We have a brand new 24" aluminum Intel-equipped iMac with the only upgrade being 2 gig of RAM. After being on for a while and after a few programs have launched, the hard drive starts clicking continuously, like it is continually trying to access the same area without success. It won't stop until we shut it down. While it is doing this, all programs launch fine and everything seems to work.
We have four other Macs (all a little older than this) and we never hear the hard drive on these. Perhaps they are doing the same thing and we just don't hear them? Our iMac is on most of the day, and I just worry it's not going to last long continuously making that hard drive clicking.
Any ideas? Thanks.

I would start by opening up Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor and see if you can narrow down what process is running. It could be any number of things from Spotlight indexing, Time Machine, cron tasks, or some other application checking for updates. Change the pull down menu to show all processes and click on the CPU tab to sort the processes by CPU usage.

Usually if a drive is clicking because of bad blocks your system will become very slow accessing data. You can test the drive to see if it is indeed failing.
1. Open up Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility select your hard drive on the left then look at the details at the bottom of the window and see if the SMART status is Verified. Next click on Verify Disk under the First Aid tab.
2. If you have Apple Care install TechTool Deluxe from the disk that comes with your Apple Care box. Launch TechTool then under options select Surface Scan and Run the test. If you think your drive might be failing then I highly recommend that you backup all of your data before running this test.

IPhone 4S not sure if charging but the charging sound won't stop and iTunes detects it?

Hi, I've never had a problem like this in the past with my 4S, but I have had issues charging it. At the end of the day, it's always worked, but now I don't think it will. I've connected my cable to my USB and to an adapter on my computer and a plug in the wall, but both times the phone does not stop indicating that it is charging with it's little jingle or it's vibrating when I turn the sound off, and when I try to turn it on by pressing the LOCK button and both the HOME and the LOCK button, it doesn't work.
I connected my iPhone 4S to my computer, and iTunes has detected my phone, but it's still not turning on and the charging sound will not stop. What should I do?

Video sound won't stop when changing frames on timeline

I've been making the transition from AS2 to AS3 for the last week and am making progress. But I'm having a problem that hopefully someone can help me with.
I'm using Flash CS5.
I have a fairly simple Flash website I'm working on. I have sections on the timeline like Home, About, Photos, Media ... all set up using labels for each of those sections.
Everything is working fine but when I go to my Media section where I have a video placed (using the flv component) I'm having a problem as follows:
The video auto plays fine when I go to the Media section but when I attempt to leave the section and go to another the sound of the video doesn't stop. It continues to play when I go to another section and if I go back to the section it starts again. The video is not there when I go to another section which is the part that's confusing me. In AS2 when I did this the video and the sound both stopped because you went to another section on the timeline. Why is the sound of the video not stopping in AS3?
I appreciate any help on this!

Again, I have copied the code exactly as you sent and named my movie clip instance "flv". Still getting the same result and the following error:

Sound Won't Stop in SWF

A few years ago, I put individual files that when clicked
would:
1. Stop any other audio that was playing
2. Would load an mp3 and play it.
3. When clicked again, all audio would stop
Well, I think either since IE 7 or a recent version of
FlashPlayer, this no longer works. The audio will load and play but
if you click again, it will not stop playing.
Check this out: Click on one of the buttons, then click on
another. Nothing shuts off like it used to.

I have attached the file. Do I need to make a minor change in
something or is there another way of doing this?
I have Flash MX 2004
I can make the FLA available to anyone who can help.

Thanks Manish_1988 and Laubender.
Here's the package:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/b9hoio4soqvdhxx/Check123%20Folder.zip
For the "media" button, I used SkinOverPlay.
I hope Adobe fixes this. Whether I have to use a different skin or tell all my friends and customers to avoid installing Reader X, it's going to be a lot of rework that I'd hate to do.

Sound won't stop in Indesign pdf when using Reader X

I created an interactive pdf using Indesign CS5. When I open with Reader 9, the page loads and music plays. When I go to the next page, the music stops. This is exactly what I want.
After installing Reader X, I open the pdf file, the music plays (as it should), but when I go the next pages, the music still keeps on playing. I want the music to stop when advancing to the next page.
I tried this on all PCs using Windows XP and Windows 7. The music doesn't stop when using Reader X.
Please help!

Sound set to stop but keeps playing

I am creating a progressive download movie for the web using
the flv. In a new Flash doc, I have an imported .mov on one layer,
that was created and exported from a different Flash doc. I have an
mp3 on the layer above the imported .mov. The movie plays fine, but
the sound will not stop, except when I preview it using
Control/"Play".
I used the Properties panel to set the Start/Loop in frame
one of the Sound layer and Stop/Loop in the last frame on that
layer where I want it to stop, I publish the new swf movie and its
flv. I open just the new swf in a browser to check it and all looks
good except the sound won't stop.
Where is my problem? The imported movie shows only on one
frame in the new fla file, so I am setting the Stop for the sound
layer on the last frame based on the original fla that the imported
move was created in.

Learned that if I put the stop in the top layer, it stops.
why is that?

LED won't stop flashing, even when there are no new notifications

The LED on my BlackBerry won't stop flashing, and I can't work out why. I have no new emails, messages, Facebook notifications, Twitter mentions, appointments/calendar events, and the LED didn't flash for new articles in the TIME magazine app any way. None of the other apps have anything to notify me of either.
I updated the OS some time ago, so I can't see that being the cause for the problem, which means I can not work out why the LED is still flashing, unless my BlackBerry is broken.
Has anybody else had this problem?
Running OS v4.6.1.310 (Platform 4.2.0.127)
Solved!

Hi danphynes,
Are you still experiencing this issue? If so, what color is the LED? Can you verify that the LED coverage indicator is disabled in Options -> Screen/Keyboard? Is the LED flashing red continually or does it stop for periods of time?

AE won't stop flashing "amber"

My Airport Extreme won't stop flashing amber and it is no longer broadcasting its wireless network, which is bad news for me. All of the wired Ethernet router features are still working, as the device is attached to my cable modem and all network devices (i.e. my Mac Pro, BD player, DirecTV receiver) attached to the Airport Extreme via Ethernet are seeing the internet and working, but wireless is dead. Airport Utility cannot find the device, so I can't even do a manual setup, because that option is grayed out. I've tried restarting the unit several times, but to no avail -- it just restarts and begins flashing the amber light. What should I do? Is my AE's wireless functionality dead?

No clue why its doing it, maybe some corrupt settings?
But if you want to fix it, I would recommend doing a factory reset. To do that press and hold the reset button on the back for 10-15 seconds, until the light stats flashing very fast, then let go of the reset button and let the airport reboot.
That should fix your problems, only downside is that you'll have to set it all up again since after a factory reset all your settings get wiped out.

Flash won't stop looping

I have imported a 4 second SWF into Captivate 4. I want it to play through once then stop on the last frame of the SWF. The SWF has a stop embedded on the last frame. The problem is; it won't stop, but keeps on looping right through the SWF stop. I tried placing a 'Next' button with a "Pause after n seconds" on it and used varying intervals from 1 to 5 seconds for the pause to take effect but, you guessed it, the SWF just keeps on a-rolling along. The screen does stay put and does not continue until the 'Next' button is clicked - but I'm trying to get the SWF to play nice, and it won't!
It seems to be the opposite problem to this post > http://forums.adobe.com/thread/607598 where they want to keep it looping, but it stops instead. Unfortunately there's no answer in this post so I can't reverse engineer a solution!
Caviat: A colleague created the swf to my spec and I'm assuming they did in fact put the stop where requested. Will post an update if they did not do this.

Your mismatched timing might be due to the frame rate of the Flash SWF not matching the frame rate of the Captivate movie.
Check with your Flash developer again to find out what the frame rate was (e.g. 30 frames per second). Get him to match it to the Captivate project.
The issue with Flash animations needing to be on the main timeline has been documented before in these forums. It wasn't an issue in Cp4 but has become so in Cp5 because the new architecture actually loads all the animations at the beginning of the movie. This means that by the time you reach the slide where you want the animation to play, it's already played long before. This only affects SWF animation that have buried the animation inside a symbol, which is what Flash developers often do to make it all easier to resize and reposition as needed. When the animation is happening one level down from the main timeline, you can trigger this animation to work properly in Captivate 5 by using some ActionScript in the Flash animation's main timeline. Here's how:
Create your animation as a symbol on a single keyframe so that the animation happens on the level one level down from the main timeline.
Give the animation symbol an instance name (e.g. Fred).
Add a new layer to the main timeline for ActionScript. You're only going to need two frames on the main timeline with keyframes on each one.
Put a stop(); action on the second frame so that it stops the main timeline.
On the first keyframe put this code or similar: Fred.gotoAndPlay(1);
What happens here is that when the Captivate SWF loads it will load your animation and start playing it but it will be stopped at the second frame of the main timeline. When it gets to the slide where you want it to play, it will begin playing again, hit the first frame and then the AS code there will tell the Fred animation to play from its first frame. Hopefully there will be a stop action on its own timeline to terminate it as well.
I've had to use this trick several times when trying to use the Right_Mark and Wrong_Mark tick and cross SWF animations that come with Captivate 5. They've obviously not been updated to work properly since the change from Cp4.
Hope this helps.

My iPad 3 iOS 8.3 suddenly stopped playing sound on its speakers while on Spotify. Volume max. Side switch not on mute. Tried rebooting thrice. Sounds won't work on other apps. Works with earpods.

My iPad 3 iOS 8.3 suddenly stopped playing sound on its speakers while I was listening on Spotify. Volume was maxxed out. Side switch not on mute. Tried rebooting thrice. Sounds won't work on other apps (Soundcloud, NPR, Clash of Clans). There are sounds when I attached my earpods. I tried the switch to mono solution on the other threads, didn't help either.
My iPad is generally muted because of classes, but when I un-mute it it works fine. It just stopped after one song, and now I can't get it to work. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Hi!
I've the same issue after updating to iOS 8.3. on iPad 3.
sound is working properly only with headphones attached.
when I tap on AirPlay button it says "Docking connector" while it should "iPad"
when i play with sound settings and try to change e.g. some alert sounds, sound is played and volume slider in control center magically appears.
any other app can't play sound.
is there any fix for that?
Thanks

Every time I open Mozilla Firefox, there is an annoying sound that won't stop, and it sounds kind of like pac man. I t won't stop, and I have no idea where it is coming from. I have tried everything. Any suggestions on what I should do?

It's just the Google homepage tribute to Pacman turning 30 today. A playable game starts up automatically, use the arrow keys to move Pacman. It's fun!
You can get Ms Pacman to appear in that game by clicking the "insert coin" button twice and using the WASD keys to move :)
You can also just change your homepage to something other than google until tomorrow.

Flash cs6 debugger won't stop on breakpoints - productivity killer bug

hey all
help me before i punch the screen out of frustration!!!
Flash cs6 says "Breakpoint not set; No executable code at..." and won't stop at the breakpoint although i checked everything (believe me i did). I also googled for answers.
This is a bug since it comes and goes randomly (mostly comes, rarly goes).
The actionscript side on my project is very large - so you may not be able to reproduce this yourself. (i suspect this is something to do with a lot of actionscript, memory stuff - like code completion problems).
Is there anyway to clear some kind of FLA metadata that might hold the debugging info?
thank you!!!

Hi Amy, thanks for showing concern. No, there were no such scenario with my SWF since I had created a new AIR type of project with Flash CS6 installed. I don't know how really we can explain this problem (debugging) with a newly installed software; but simply the debugger never worked with the installation, so I just removed and moved to MacOS where it was working at least.
I am not sure even if the Flash CS has some dependencies - if I consider its the issue with my PC (installation).

My macbook pro won't stop making noise! It sounds like the fan but I'm not sure. Any ideas?

my macbook pro won't stop making noise! It sounds like the fan but I'm not sure. Any ideas? It's really worrying me because I haven't had it for up tp 2months and last week everytime I switch it on it makes sooo much noise. And I treat like an egg so I don't understand whats going on.

Hey,
My friend had a very similar issue to yours. The issue came down to the pins of the MagSafe not meeting with the MacBook perfectly causing the lights and the transfer of power to be wacko. I'm not sure if this is issue that your experiencing, but its worth checking out the pins and the MagSafe area on your MacBook for debris.
Troubleshooting Magsafe power adapters with stuck pins
If that is all clear, then I would suggest you call AppleCare or take it in to an Apple Store to have it checked out.
