Strange problem with Flash

Ok so after spending the past week trawling through this forum I have yet to see anyone with a similar problem and al the ways to fix I've tried have been a lesson in fustration.
So the problem is flash just isn't there on websites, on any browser. Where flash videos and such would be is a big blank space the same size as the player and this is the same for ALL video media off any site including youtube.
When I run the installer it says completed and then nothing changes on any of the browsers, same for offline installer, and same after doing a full uninstall. Anyone got anymore ideas.
Also did a system restore to back when it DID work, also didnt solve the problem, so I'm really at my wits end now?!
This is running on a windows 7 32bit system.

First thing to try is a clean install as described in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/928315
Download the offline installer from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html#Ins tall_in_a_firewall_proxy_server_environment
What browser(s) do you use?
What is your display adapter, device driver version & date?

  • Some strange problem with Flash/As3

    Hi,
    I am having some strange problem with my flash cs3.
    Whatever script I write in as3  doesn't work, even a stop() function doesn't work . But when I change my publish setting to as2 it works fine.
    Not sure about the root cause, may be some setting or preference or my cs3 is corrupted.
    Can anybody please advise.
    Thanks,
    Kishor

    try this
    create a new fla as3,
    select frame 1
    open the actions panel
    paste in the following code
    var squares:Array = new Array;
    setup();
    function setup():void {
        for (var i = 0; i < 25; i++) {
            var square:Sprite = new Sprite();
            //square.name = "square" + i;
            square.graphics.beginFill(Math.random() * 0xffffff);
            squares.push(square);
            squares[i].graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 100, 100);
            squares[i].x = i*3;
            squares[i].y = i*3;
            squares[i].filters = [];
            square.graphics.endFill();
            stage.addChild(squares[i]);
    for (var j = 0; j < squares.length; j++) {
        squares[j].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dragMovie);
        squares[j].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropMovie);
        squares[j].buttonMode = true;

  • Flash Player 10, strange problem with emdedded fonts and movieclips

    Hello, developers! I have a big problem with font embedding
    and I can not debug it myself. So I need you help.
    I' ve done a simple list of attached movieclips with
    textfields inside them, with embedded fonts. I have no problem with
    flash player 9 in order to see the list, but in flash player 10 I
    can't see it. The font is very common, Arial actually so you can
    test it very easily. I am using a font symbol in the library, a
    class and an xml file for my data.
    Also you can see it online in (if you have flash player 10
    you can't see a thing)
    http://www.forestonfire.com//research/flash/fontproblem/index.html
    I have compiled the file as an exe projector in order to see
    it as I do in flash player 9
    http://www.forestonfire.com//research/flash/fontproblem/fontinflash9.zip
    I have zipped also the source code in order to compile it
    yourself.
    http://www.forestonfire.com/research/flash/fontproblem/fontembedded.zip
    and the same example without embedded fonts (I have the same
    problem there so perchaps are not the fonts)
    http://www.forestonfire.com/research/flash/fontproblem/fontnotembed.zip
    Please, check it and tell me if there is a solution
    available. Thank you in advance.

    I've included also a much more simple example without the xml
    and the font symbol, only the class and a movieclip from the
    library, but I can't still see it on flash player 10

    I have no clue about this problem.

  • Strange problem with HD

    I'm having a strange problem with my titanium 15" Powerbook G4 (I believe it's 867Mhz). When I start it up, I get a flashing question mark/folder, and I can't boot into safe mode or make it start up past that question mark.
    Here's the really weird part-- the hard drive is completely fine. I booted it in target mode, was able to access all files on it, transfer files to and from it, and when I ran disk utility, everything was fine.
    I heard disk utility doesn't catch everything, so I ran fsck 3 or 4 times with both the -f and -r options (to rebuild the file catalog), and it came up with 0 errors.
    I think it's just not recognizing the hard drive as the boot volume, but when I press option on startup to select it, it doesn't pop up in the list-- so there's no way to select it.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!
    Tim

    I reinstalled Leopard on it using the target disk method (because the DVD drive is broken on the computer). It installed fine, and I can see all system files on it, but I can't boot off of it-- same problem. Thanks for the suggestion... any others?

  • Strange problem with motherboard H67MA-E45(B3) =( please help

    Hi, I have a strange problem with my motherboard . I have a H67MA-E45 (B3) (MSI-7678) , when i try to update it ( http://www.pcbrain.it/images/stories/msi/H67MA-E45/bios/14.JPG ) , i choose the fourth option "Select one file to update bios" , but the bios did not recognize the update file (E7678IMS.1C0) into the Usb flash drive , but if i choose the second option (select one file to boot) the file is recognized. First I made a backup of the bios, and into the USB flash drive has been created a file called "E7678ICX.162" (my current update). Why the extension is IXC ?!? it should have been IMS ! . I tried changing the file extension "E7678IMS.1C0" (the new update) into "E7678ICX.1C0" and when i select the fourth option , the file is recognized! . Obviously I have not started the update , but if I proceed with the update, changed the name of the extension, is it safe? Or do damage?..please help me  :(
    P.S. Sorry for my bad bad and very poor english , i'm italian =)

    Still think there is a batch conflict or possibly a bad stick in the new sticks. Might test each new stick individually for a bad one. Again, the other solution for an 8BG kit may be the new Kingston HyperX PnP's. Could you post a screenshot of CPUID's CPU-Z Memory & SPD Tab for one of the new sticks?
    Added: Actually, screenshots of the old sticks Memory & SPD Tab may be of help too. It may be tRAS or tRFC differences between the two kits. Just speculation at this point though.
    All the batchs works perfectly...this is the screen http://imageshack.us/f/163/ramkk.jpg/ ...save and zoom
    EDIT: The old stick are SLOT #1 and SLOT #2 ...the new 3 and 4

  • Strange Problems With Display and Permissions Since 10.5.1 update.

    Since I've done the 10.5.1 update I have been having a strange problem with my desktop and dock displays. On my desktop I have these strange lines that appear any time I log in or open any application, the lines never go away and change locations on the screen once I open an application or move a window. My dock has the reflective shelf for about half of it, the rest is a dull grey. I've also had problems with verifying and repairing my permissions. I can never actually complete either permissions task. I've used some third party apps, they always fail as well. The only time I can actually repair my permissions is by booting in to single user mode and doing a fsck -f command. When I boot back in to Leopard and try to use the Disk Utility to repair, it continues to fail.
    I'm not sure if the video problem I am having stems from a permissions issue or possibly a corrupt video driver. Either way, I've done a lot research and haven't found anyone with the same problems I have been having so I thought I would give these forums a shot.
    I am using a PowerMac G4 Quicksilver with dual 800Mhz, 1.5gb RAM, and a GeForce4 Ti 4600 128mb video card.
    Here is a screen shot of the line and dock problem.
    Here is a screen shot of my "About This Mac.
    If anyone could lend some light on this issue, I would greatly appreciate it.

  • I have problem with Flash Player. Full screen doesn't work correctly. Turning off hardware acelleration helps but I want this option to work.

    Problem exist only on YouTube. When i want get full screen, I have black screen with audio. If I click few times full screen button it helps, but I want to go to full screen by one click.
    If i turn off hardware acceleration everything is ok but vids looks terrible.
    I have this problem with Flash Player 10. No 9 works good, but some websites wants no. 10

    Generaly FP works, but problem is that i must press few times full screen button. Now i have turn off hardware accelleration, but movies are quite bad.
    I have already installed newest graphic drivers but it didn't help.
    Everything was good unless Flash Player and Mozilla notificated that update is necessary :<

  • Strange problem with Adobe Acrobat X (crash without a trace)

    Hi,
    I have a strange problem with Adobe Acrobat. It happens totally randomly, it leaves no signs in system logs.
    What is happening: during my work Adobe Acrobat sudennly crashes. After a crash I cannot run it again - system seems to do something for a second, but then nothing happends. When i look into taks manager - there are no processes of Acrobat.exe. It just doesn't want to run. What I need to do is to reinstall whole Adobe Acrobat - which requires restart.
    I've already tried to restart system after crash, it doesn't help - reinstall is required.
    Sometimes everyting is fine for a 3 months, sometimes crash happens a week after the previous one. It also happens in very different situations (somtimes  while opening a file, sometimes when doing something simple, sometimes in more complex tasks).
    Has anyone encountered a similar problem?

  • Strange problem with Subviews on 1.0 Beta

    Hi,
    I'm having a strange problem with SubViews on 1.0 Beta. I'm not sure If I'm being stupid and have done something wrong, or if there's a problem here.
    My application is directly based on one of the examples, so the structure etc is almost identical. I've simplified the files below to avoid confusing the issue.
    The default landing page (greeting.jsp) looks like this:
    <%@ taglib declarations for HTML and CORE taglibs %>
    <HTML>
    <HEAD><title>Insulation Layer Demo</title></HEAD>
    <body bgcolor="white">
    <f:view>
    <jsp:include page="sysstatus.jsp" />
    <!-- other strictly HTML content -->
    </f:view>
    </body>
    </HTML>
    sysstatus.jsp looks like this:
    <%@ taglib declarations for HTML and CORE taglibs %>
    <f:subview id="SystemStatusView">
    <h:form id="systemStatusForm">
    <p><h:selectboolean_checkbox id="System1Available" value="#{SystemStatus.system1Available}"/>System 1<br/>
    <h:selectboolean_checkbox id="System2Available" value="#{SystemStatus.system2Available}"/>System 2</p>
    <p><h:command_button id="submit" action="success" value="submit" /></p>
    </h:form>
    </f:subview>When I view this page, the checkboxes all seem to work okay (in that their state is preserved across calls etc), but the formatting is very screwy. The resulting page looks something like:
    <chkbox1> <chkbox2> <Submit>
    System 1
    System 2
    <Other HTML content from greeting.jsp>When I look at the HTML source code being generated, it is genuinly being generated as above, that is, all the form tags first, and then the rest of the content. Interestinly, I tried adding a ${SystemStatus.system2Available} into the body text, and it was rendered as literal text (i.e. not evaluated as EL), which is very curious -- makes me wonder if the included file is included as text, rather than JSP, although the custom taglibs and <f:form> tags etc are not in the generated HTML.
    If I lift all the content between the <h:form> tags (inclusive) out of sysstatus.jsp and put it in greeting.jsp in place of the <jsp:include> tag, all is well.
    Any ideas? All help gratefully recieved!
    Thanks,
    Paul

    Personally, I think it is a bug in the rendering model of JSF itself because if you include any non-JSF tags, they don't get rendered according to my understanding of the what the spec says (in the location the tags are written).
    The only workaround that I could come up with is to use straight JSF tags in all of your layers. Things are then rendered the way that they "should" be rendered.
    You could try wrapping all of your HTML tags in <f:verbatim> tags and see if that helps.
    Good luck!

  • Problems with flash Player

    So I'm having a problem with flash player, and was wondering if anyone has experienced the same thing, or might be able to help.
    - Upgraded 2 computers to snow leopard, macbook pro laptop, and mac Pro tower (intel proc).
    - Laptop has no problems, everything renders fine, and without any difficulty.
    - Mac Pro doesn't display any dynamic data, text fields show up blank, some flash player controls don't work, brightcove player won't load completely... things are just not working right.
    - Main browser is Safari, but same problem exists in Camino, Firefox, etc...
    - I've had Safari Stand installed, but have since removed it.
    - I've removed GROWL notifications completely
    - I've got debug and developer menus turned on (but have that with the laptop also.)
    Please see the screenshot attached. This graph should have text data on it showing the x/y axis, the key, as well as data when you mouse over each block, but doesn't show anything.
    The second screen shot shows a brightcove player from our website... There should have full controls at the bottom, and nothing shows up. If I right-click, and go to 'view full screen', I can't then get out of full screen by clicking escape key on the keyboard, I have to use any player controls, or right-click again, and hit 'exit full screen'.
    Anyone have any suggestions? It's something to do with my computer, rather than snow leopard, because flash works fine on my laptop, but not on the desktop. Any help is really appreciated !

    Hi!
    I reached your post because I was having the exact same issues as you and I found a fix that worked for me! The problem is a font issue: I logged in with the guest account that had no users font installed and flash was working fine, so I logged back into my account and moved all the fonts in my 'User>Library>Fonts' folder in a folder in the desktop. Then I closed and reopened Safari and Flash was working!
    In the end the problem was with a version of Arial that I had in my users' font folder: I deleted just that, put my users' font back in the folder and the problem disappeared.
    I hope it hepls!
    best

  • Problems with Flash Video

    OK - I have had intermittent problems with Flash video, basically it gets choppy, usually after about 20 minutes - half an hour of watching - recently this problem has gotten worse - coinciding with a recent system update perhaps? - it's more or less anytime I stream something, and it happens on all browsers, even when the movie has clearly downloaded and is buffered way in advance of the playhead.
    On 2 occasions recently leaving the movie to play just to see what happens has led to a kernel panic.
    I've heard alot about Flash video generally being a resource hog and not playing ball sometimes - is there a way to solve this issue? Things I have tried - reset sound to 16 bit 44.1 khz in audio/midi manager; fixed permissions; run Tech Tool - everything seems to be fine hardware wise - I think there are some incompatible driver issues that are meesing up RAM usage but have no idea what or how to solve this... Any ideas anybody?
    Thanks.

    If, as you show, you are running 10.5.2, that is out of date. You need to install the 10.5.8 combo updater.
    It is also possible that your FlashPlayer is out of date.
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
