Swf not working in flash

Everyone says if we readjust settings in Flash, the swf will work locally. This is not occurring. In InDesign, they check fine. Loading them on a server would be nice but I don't have one outside the router. I do have LAMP working this side, on a laptop but am not sure what I'm doing there. I still think it is a security setting or a bug. Any clues? This is the final week in class. I'd like to keep my 4.0.
Thanks,
Gary

and make sure that you do not have more than Flash Player version
on your Computer.
Hope this helps

Embedded SWFs not working with Flash 9

Hello,
I am also plagued with the Flash Player 9 issue. None of my
embedded SWF files work if I publish with this version of the
player installed. I ran the uninstaller and I'm now using version
8. However, each time I open a PPT file I get an error saying "some
controls on this presentation can't be activated. they might not be
registered on this computer". This is very irritating. So, my SWFs
still don't work. I found that if I register the v9 ocx and
re-insert the SWFs, they will publish properly (while the Player 8
is installed). However, I have about 50 existing PPTs with anywhere
from 10-30 SWFs per presentation. I'd like to avoid this method if
possible. Does anyone know of an easier solution? Thank you.

good morning DocDVM and Supermercado Gato,
I have the same issue with embedding SWF files into Breeze. I
have been doing some searching the last two weeks and i found an
tech note that you might want to read. It seems that Breeze is not
really set up for Flash player 9 so Adobe came up with a work
around. Read the technote.

I am having my IT Department update Breeze for me so i will
let you know if it works or if you update your Breeze let me know
if this fixes the issue.

Captivate 4 AS2 Text Entry Box not working with Flash Player 11

I am having issues with text entry boxes not working at all in flash 11. I am using Captivate 4 and exporting an AS2 swf. When you get to the slide you can type but you cannot see anything nor does the button or keystroke to move on. Also there is no cursor. Any ideas?

You said it is not working with Flash 11, so does that mean you tested with previous version and that worked?
While publishing choose Flash player as 9 and publish that, verify if that plays in a compatible web browser.
AS 2 is a legacy scripting, it has been said not too be supported with even Flash Player 10 --
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AS2LCR/Flash_10.0/help.html?content=Part2_AS2_LangRef_1.html
I believe if you switch back to version 9 while publish your project, it should work.
Thanks,
Anjaneai

NetStream.send not working in Flash Player 11.2 Beta with Cirrus, Please confirm if it is a bug

Title
NetStream.send not working in Flash Player 11.2 Beta with Cirrus, Please confirm if it is a bug or feature
Description
Problem Description:
NetStream.send can not send data to peerstreams when using with cirrus. Conflict with documents.
Sorry for tag the build as 11.0.1.3 while the bug is actually on 11.2 beta since the bug report system didn't have 11.2 beta yet.
If you are not responsible for 11.2 beta bug fix, please help a hand to handle this bug to 11.2 team.
This bug is "killing" to your application, so we really appreciate your help. Thanks.
==Publisher==
nc.connect("rtmfp://");
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc, NetStream.DIRECT_CONNECTIONS);
ns.publish("sendtest");
...//after connection success.
ns.send("clientfunction", "ok"); // this line cannot reach subscribers. even if subscribers have client object correctly.
==Subscriber==
nc.connect("rtmfp://");
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc, cirrusid);
var client:Object = new Object();
client.clientfunction = clientfunction; // target function
ns.client = client;
ns.play("sendtest");
Steps to Reproduce:
1. compile the code in the attachment to SendTestExample.swf (not be able to paste it here)
2. run it under flash player 11.2.202.19 beta
3. run it under flash player 11
Actual Result:
HeartBeat is:
Start HeartBeat:
send hello
send hello
send hello
which means NetStream.send was not able to call "clientfunction" as expected.
Expected Result:
Start HeartBeat:
send hello
in client function: hello
send hello
in client function: hello
send hello
in client function: hello
which can call into the clientfunction as flash player 11 did.
Any Workarounds:
I can not find it out since it's an api level bug. But this can be very important for lots of applications which rely on send to do rpc.

GETURL is not working in flash player 9.0.124.0.

Dear Friends,
My swf and my html are in different domain so i got a issue
in GETURL function , It is not working in flash player 9.0.124.0.
in IE browser so that i add one parameter like allowScriptAccess
=always then its working fine.but my question is what will happed
if they will introduce any new flash version in future please tell
me what is the permanent solution for this issue.
Thanks

There is no way to know what will change in the future. This
is the solution that works now. It will probably remain in place
for the reasonable future.

SWFs not working in Player 10

I have almost 40 swfs that are not working in Flash Player
10. They were developed in Flash 8 and only contain basic AS2 code.
I'm not sure what is wrong but some don't even show up and others
do, but with components missing or blocked out. The only thing I
can think of is that the majority of these were protected using
kindisoft's secureSWF. Please tell me there is just a bug in player
10,0,12,36. I literally have thousands of copies of the swfs out
and this is giving me a stomach ache.

nsmchris,
> Recompiled swfs seem to work fine.
Okay, that's some relief, at least.
So that puts me in a tough position. I have 1000's of swf
> widgets out on hundreds of sites that will no longer
work
> :(.
For users who have Flash Player 10 intalled, that may be
true.
> Example is WiddlyTinks.com. So. How can I safe
> obfuscate my code so others can't decompile and still be
> compatible with future builds of the player?
To be honest, I don't know that your SWFs are safety
obfuscated even
now. I've seen plenty of apps over the years that claim to
obfuscate and/or
protect SWFs, but it's a never-ending game of cat and mouse,
just like spam
filters. As soon as someone buys secureSWF and reverse
engineers it --
which is what people who steal software do for fun -- the
secrets of
secureSWF will be brought to light. Eventually, "secureSWF
crackers" and
other such software will be available to effortlessly toil
away at the
encryption used in the obfuscation of your code. Just like
there are
legitimate products out there that recover lost ZIP or RAR
file passwords.
There might not be anti-secureSWF software yet, but give it
time.
As long as your SWF displays in Flash Player, it can be read
by any
software that behaves as Flash Player does. Even when
modified by this
third-party app, your SWF adheres to the SWF specification,
which means it's
known territory. All software can reverse engineered. That's
why for-pay
software always comes with an End User License Agreement that
makes you
promise not to reverse engineer it.
This note says it all (from kindisoft's own website):
Without argument, obfuscation (or even encryption) is not 100
percent
protection. If a hacker is persistent enough, he/she can find
the meaning of
your code. The goal of obfuscation is to make the process of
reverse
engineering extremely time consuming and painful so that it
is not worth the
effort. The goal is to stop all casual hackers and as many
serious hackers
as possible.
http://kindisoft.com/secureSWF/faq.php
When you started this thread, you mentioned these SWFs "only
contain
basic AS2 code," so really ... how much of the code in your
SWFs is worth
obfuscating? I hasten to add, I'm asking with respect for
your work. I'm
not judging your SWFs in any way and have no idea which ones
are yours. But
if they're basic, what's to protect?

Published .swf not working on website

Hi,
I am new to Catalyst, and just finished my first project.
It worked great when I went to "run project"
I changed the name of Main.html to Index.html (left the main.swf) and copied the "deployed to web folder" to the /public_hml folder in the FTP server.
The problem is that when I go to my site address nothing comes up
I am not sure what I am doing wrong! Anyone can help me please!?!?
Thanks!!!!!!

I don't mean nested SWF is not work in Flash Catalyst(FC). You can still import SWF to FC. But one thing important is. When your nested SWF have related image file outside the SWF file. You also need to copy this image file under the nested SWF directory. (same folder or create a Assets folder or not. It depend on your link inside nested SWF.)
Hope this make this clear.
I also use nested SWF from FP and FC. It work fine for me.

SWF Not Working...Help Please :(

Hi all,
So I've been having an issue with a SWF not work on a page and this is what I can seem to come up with after hours of messing with Dreamweaver and Flash trying to understand why it won't work. When i test the movie from the working Flash file, it works no problem. Something is going wrong when I export or publish the movie and it no longer works. Is this something that happens?
Your help is much appreciated...this site needs to go up in the next day or so and the SWF was working and then stopped working and I'm honestly not a Flash gal so I really have no business messing with it, but it was a specific request. Thanks!

One thing that might be an issue as far as the web page goes it that the html specifies a file named carousel2.swf which does not appear to exist on the server and is not the same name as the file you are calling the swf in your swf link (*carousel3.swf).
Without knowing what goes on inside carousel3, or carousel 2 for that matter, it's hard to say if it is missing the xml file that it might need. But for either case, are you certain that you have uploaded the xml file that is needed?

AIR SDK 17 (BETA) is not working with Flash CS6

Hi,
The latest AIR SDK 17 is not working with Flash CS6.
I tried to publish and install an iOS app to my connected device via USB but I always get an error "Check if iTunes is installed".
The latest stable AIR SDK 16 is working fine, and yes, iTunes is installed on my PC.
DETAILS:
- Flash CS6
- AIR SDK 17
- System: Windows 8,1
- iPodTouch with iOS 8.1
REPRODUCE:
Open new AIR iOS template and publish/install it to a USB connected iOS 8.1 device.
Anyone else got that error?

I was getting this intermittently. Not a super problem. A remove and install in iTunes gets it loaded (after you tell ITunes where it is).

Embedfont = true; Japanese font is not working in Flash CC

Hi,
embedfont = true; was working in Flash CS6 (window XP, 32bit, Air SDK 15.0)
But I moved same project to new system. Then, it's not working. (Flash CC, window 7 pro, 64bit, SDK 17.0).
textfield shows nothing. But if I remove this code (embedfont = true;). Textfield shows texts applied default fonts.
Funny part is English and Korean(My language) Embedfont is working perfectly.
Only japanese font is not working.
I've tried several japanese font, but all of them were not working.
Any Idea would be appreciate.

Amy~ Yep the lasso tool was what I verified with another user. 'L' seems to be bound indefinitely to loop through different types of lasso tools and it was annoying them because they just wanted L to be the regular freehand lasso. I removed 'L' from being an option on the polygon lasso and even set it explicitly to SHIFT+L as well as set the lasso tool to a completely different keyboard combo. 'L' still cycled through lassos haha. It needs some fixes.
fertolg~ At least you have a workaround for now. I'd go nuts if I couldn't use keyboard text selection writing code, oy! You're welcome and if you're all set please mark correct so we can filter unanswered. Good luck!

I am getting frustrated with Apple not working with Flash player on some of my favorite web sites. Is there any alternative that will work on I-pad instead of flash?

I am getting frustrated with Apple not working with Flash Player on some of my favorite web sites! Is there another alternative to watching these site options on my I-pad?

Flash is not, and probably never will be, supported on the iPad : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/ . Plus it would be up to Adobe to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices - something which they have never managed to do and which they have now given up on trying to do.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter and Puffin 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store, so your could try checking there for your sites (and there is the built-in YouTube app).

Why "send sms" not work in flash lite3 ???

hello
i write this code for send sms in device :
on(release) {
if(_capSMS)
getURL("sms:" add myNumber add "?body=" add myText);
it work fine in flash lite1.1 & 2.x
but not work in flash lite 3 !!!!!
what shall i do ? please help me
can i make the command geturl to work on flashlite 3?
or how can i open an url from flash lite 3?
please help me

Hi,
It appears that the problem is with the security sandbox. To
be able to send an SMS, it looks like you have to publish for Flash
Lite 3, and in the Publish Settings, set 'Local playback security'
to 'Access network only'. I used the following code:
on (release) {
if (System.capabilities.hasSMS) {
getURL("sms:" + myNumber + "?body=" + myText);
And it would only work when the publish settings were set as
above. This was testing on a Nokia E65 with the developer edition
of FL3 installed.
Hope this helps!

Published SWFs not working from CS3 on Mac?

This one REALLY has me stumped..
I am working on a Mac Dual 2-Gig G5 running OS 10.4.10 and
Flash CS3.
I have a web site for a client posted (
http://www.aronwiesenfeld.com
). This site has been running flawlessly for over a year published
to Version 8 Flash Player AS v2.0. This client asked me to create a
new temporary splash page last night that would announce his new
Art Show and then click on into the main site. This site uses a
Shared Lib, a SharedTrigger, a Core SWF (containing the main site
navigation elements and handles loading of various movies into
levels) and a Splash SWF (that contains the two splash screens and
initial navigation to areas of the site. The problem I THINK I am
having is in the Splash SWF... or is a problem with my LOCAL Mac
installation? When I click one of the 5 Site Nav buttons it is
supposed to tell the main core movie to advance to a new frame (20)
and I target that movie by referring to _level0. This has worked
fine for the past year (on this and other sites). I am attaching an
example of the code used on each of the initial Nav buttons in the
Splash swf .
So here is the mystery...
When I "Test Movie" inside Flash CS3, everything works/looks
"perfect". If I then go to the desktop and find the generated HTML
file and open it in Safari (both version 2 and 3-beta), or Firefox
or Opera, etc., everything looks fine until I click one of the
initial text Nav Buttions. At that point it takes me to the main
site and loads the external SWF into a level as it should
(indicating that the 3rd line of code on the button is execution
and by the fact the the Splash movie disappears, it indicates that
the core movie is indeed moving to frame 20 (_level0) as requested
in the first line of code. However, all of the main site navigation
buttons along the bottom of the main site as well as the background
NEVER APPEAR? Also when I start to move the mouse around the loaded
external movie the site completely crashes and I get a blank screen
- IN ALL BROWSERS whether I am launching the site from my hard
drive or the Internet!! But it works perfect INSIDE Flash CS3.
Now comes the real kicker...
Just for the heck of it after spending 3 hours trying to fix
this on my main G5 tower(publishing to Player version 9, etc.), I
decided to try accessing the site from my old G4 laptop. Ready for
this? The site appears to be working perfectly IN ALL BROWSERS ON
MY G4 also running 10.4.10!!!
So my guess is maybe their is a problem with the Flash Player
Plugin in all my browsers on my G5 or the Flash Plugin has a
problem with OS 10.4.10 only on my G5. BUT, even if I launch this
site directly in Flash Player from the desktop on my G5 it does not
work - so the stand-alone player is having the same issue - yet it
works fine on my G5 INSIDE of Flash CS3.
I thought I had seen it all the last 5 years with Flash, but
this one has be completely stumped!
My client emailed me from California and said the site was
working fine there of his PC. If that is true then I am having a
LOCAL Flash Player problem on my G5 running 10.4.10.
In addition to my question, if anyone can give me feedback as
to whether or not this site is working on your machine/browser/OS,
could you please let me know? You will know if the site is working
if you click on Enter Site, then click on any of the 5 buttons
(except Info) and you see a grey background behind the image and
the lower navigation string appears.
Thanks!

Well after trying everything I could think of I started down
the list again. I re-downloaded the Flash Player 9 r47 Mac
installer and ran the installer again (which I also did last night
with no success).
This time after re-installing the plugin - ALL THE BROWSERS
IMMEDIATELY STARTED WORKING ad the site now comes up fine - so,
apparently I had a bad Flash Player install in my browser!

Swf not working in project

I have a as3 project that contains as3 widgets and as3 swfs. All was working great two weeks ago. At that time, I stopped work on it to work on something else. I came back to it today and there seems to be some type of corruption. If I take out the swf's everything works fine. I tried deleting the swfs in the project and going back to the original fla and republished. This didn't work. I've been wracking my brain trying to think what could have happened from when it was working two weeks ago.
I took out the widgets to see if that was causing some issue but the swf's still didn't work. I also opened a blank project and inserted just the swf's but no luck. Because these swf's were working two weeks ago and now are not even in a blank project, it makes me wonder if there could have been some change to my computer that is potentially causing a conflict. Anyone have any thoughts/suggestions?
Thanks!
Steve

Could you describe the corruption a bit more? Currently when you play the Captivate (which version?) swf with the AS3 Flash swfs, what specifically ocurrs? Does the Cap swf stop on the slides that have Flash swfs, does it not play at all? Do you have any code in your Flash swfs that are supposed to be communicating with the Cap swf directly?
Is it possible to post the zipped files on a server to download and look at, or at least the published files for us to view online and make sure we have the same experience?
Just trying to dig because a lot of different things could be happening. I had similar issues but was mostly with Flash AS2 swfs in my Captivate 5 AS3 swfs. However, I did even have some issue with some Captivate 5 AS3 swfs that are supposed to playback inside another Captivate 5 AS3 swf (that problem was that the embedded swfs wouldn't load on the slide, but the main playback would still continue).
Best,
Danny
