SWF won't display once uploaded.

I'm in a pickle here. I've looked at this multiple times, and looked at multiple pieces of advice, and multiple posts, and still can't find the answer, and don't see what I'm doing wrong.
I'm working on a website that has SWF embedded. I had to make some changes to one of the (existing - not created by me) pages, and that meant having to shuffle around a couple of SWF videos. I preview it and it looks fine, but when I upload it...the videos AREN'T THERE.
I've tried all kinds of things - linking it to the SWF file's URL on the server (in case it was looking for it on my local drive), etc. etc. But nothing works. Is there anything I can do?

It works with JavaScript turned off, indicating a problem with JavaScript.
These two files are 404 Not Found:
/bettie-page/Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js
/bettie-page/Scripts/AC_ActiveX.js
Upload your Scripts folder and all its content.
Note: Usually the Scripts folder is found on the root of the site, but your page expects to find the Scripts folder in the bettie-page folder.

Dynamic gallery won`t display once uploaded on FTP

Hi, I builded this dynamic gallery page that display the
pictures using an UI Loader component.
When I test the movie in Flash the gallery loads and displays
the external picture with no problems. However, once the html and
SWF file are upoladed on line you can see everything correctly but
the clickable thumbnails won`t open any picture.
In the FTP I`m keeping the same exact path as my directory.
The code says
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ldr1)
function ldr1 (e:Event) {
my_ldr.source = "PICTURES/FASHION/fashion1.jpg";
So, I have a PICTURES folder in the same directory as the SWF
and HTML document and inside of it I have the FASHION folder
containing the pictures called "fashion1", "fashion2", and so
forth...
I can send more code if necessary. It seems a pretty
straightforward process and it should work, but I can gigure out
why is not working.
Anybody have any idea why?
Here` s the website in progress
http://www.erinbarry.co.uk/staging/home.html

I see in the directory tree of your web host that all of your
jpg's have all caps for their extensions (fashion1.JPG not
fashion1.jpg). If you change the path in the Flash or change the
filenames this will work. Often, your local computer OS doesn't
care about caps vs no-caps, whereas web servers often do care, and
in this instance your web server does.
To test this, if you put "
http://www.erinbarry.co.uk/staging/PICTURES/FASHION/fashion1.jpg"
into the browser path you get a "404 Not Found" error. If you
change it to "
http://www.erinbarry.co.uk/staging/PICTURES/FASHION/fashion1.JPG"
you get the image.

SWF Won't Display in RoboHelp Project

Hi,
I have a RoboHelp 9 HTML project that has a number of SWF files embedded in a number of the pages. The problem is the SWF won't display on the HTML page. The SWF files are published to version 11.x. The HTML pages work fine on my computer but I have Robohelp and Flash Pro installed. When I take it to any other computer in my office, the HTML pages load with no problem but the SWF files will not load onto the pages. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

So you are saying that the SWF *WAS* actually displaying but was somehow unable to present the text?
For others that may wonder about what TLF is (as I did) I'll save you the Google step.

Swf won't play after uploading - white box

I've posted a couple of previous times and gotten nothing but
dead air, so I'm still trying to find a way to get flash movies to
just play on a web site. Is it that hard? I hate flash. Why doesn't
it just work?
I'm trying to put a video gallery up and currently have eight
.swf video clips that all begin downloading simultaneously when the
page is opened, hogging bandwidth that should be reserved for
whatever one video the user chooses. I can't find a way to keep the
clips from downloading until the user clicks the play button. And I
can't put a buffer delay in. Everything I can find on a buffer in
Flash says to change the BufferTimer in the components inspector.
But I HAVE NO BUFFERTIMER IN THE COMPONENTS INSPECTOR!! I've got
Align, AutoPlay, CuePoints, etc., but no BufferTimer! I swear I
must have a faulty version of Flash CS3.
So I'm trying to get around it by using a gallery of images
that link to individual pages with one .swf file. It all tests fine
on my local machine, but once it's uploaded, the gallery images
pull up pages with a big fat white box where the .swf should be.
What gives?
And while I'm ranting about the difficulties of Flash, I'll
rave about the ease of use of Dreamweaver. Why can't Fl be more
like Dw? ie, coding not required. I've been trying to wrestle this
Flash gallery into reality for more than a week and I'm on the
verge of reverting back to embedded Quicktime files.
BTW, does anyone know of a Flash forum people actually? I
haven't gotten a response at Creative Cow or here.
Sorry for the rant; I'm at my wit's end.

I am having the very same problem. When I post the swf file
and call it up, all I see is a white box with my play button and
stop button at the bottom. Both of these buttons work and it looks
fine once you hit the play button. But I want the swf to come up to
the first frame which should be a picture of a person -- not the
white box!
Did you ever find out how to fix this problem? I'd be ever so
grateful to get help on this one.
Thanks!

SWF doesn't display once imported to LMS

We're in the process of setting up TrainingPartner LMS, and
I'm trying to get a SCORM quiz working. I can publish everything
and upload to our (separate) content server, and if I visit that
URL, the quiz works fine. However, if I add that quiz URL to the
LMS, the html page loads, but the flash quiz doesn't display. In
addition, if I close that window, the quiz is marked as complete,
with a score of 100%. Both are undesirable behaviors :)
I'm trying to determine if this is a Captivate problem, or an
LMS problem - I'm leaning towards it being Captivate, since the
html page loads, just not the .swf. Any suggestions?

Hi timtate and welcome to the forums!
Actually, if the quiz works fine directly from the content
server, then it's likely an LMS issue.
Have you tried loading other HTML files with embedded Flash
movies from your content server into the LMS or is this the first
time it's been done?
I wonder if it's not a cross-domain security issue that's
preventing the Flash Player from loading the movie. If so, you'll
probably want to ask Google how to create a crossdomain.xml file.
This file goes on your LMS server root and determines which other
servers are "safe" to load content from.
That said, maybe the crossdomain.xml file goes on the root of
your content server. I forget which goes where, but crossdomain.xml
is definitely the right name at least.

SWF won't display in IE

I embedded a swf in my html page through Dreaweaver. I was
prompted that the AC_RunActiveContent.js would be added for
displaying in IE. It is there and linked to in the code. The swf
plays fine in FF and in only one IE ver 6 browser I tried it on at
another site. I've tried it on IE 6 and 7 here at home, to no
avail. The swf banner flashes for a split second then disappears to
nothing but a blank spot. Because it worked in one IE browser I
suspected browser settings.The settings appear ok in my IE browser.
I can't compare the working IE browser with the non-working ones
very easily as they are separated by miles. Is there something in
the code that needs to be changed? Any ideas would be
appreciated.

instead of embedding with the AC_RunActiveContent object
tags, use
This

InDesign Table of Contents won't display once exported to pdf

Hello,
I am creating user manuals using Indesign books with CS5. When I export the book, I can view everything perfectly. But when I open the same file from a different computer, I get a message saying:
"An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the pdf document to correct the problem."
And two pages are blank - the table of contents. If you hover the cursor over the blank pages, the cursor changes and indicates the hyperlinks, and the hyperlinks still work, but since you can't view the text it's not very helpful.
Both computers are using Acrobat 9.
Any ideas?

I systematically removed elements from the pages in turn and I think I've found the issue. I have a header/footer created in illustrator on the master pages for all the documents in the book, and when I remove it from the Table of Contents, it shows up just fine. Odd that it doesn't affect the other pages.
Thanks for your quick responses. Consider the problem solved.

Component in SWF won't display in Sprite

Hi
I have a Flash sprite that contains a List component. In
Flash the list populates fine (using ActionScript) and works as
desired, complete with scrollbar. In Director, a plain box appears
where the list box should be.
(To be clear, the component is in the Flash movie. I'm not
talking about Flash components in Director as I'm only using MX,
not 2004
Any thoughts on what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks.

I'm sorry, but I don't remember whether the Flash Asset xtra
that
shipped with Director MX was for Flash 6 or 7 published swf
files. Are
you sure the Player version is correct?

SWF won't play onced inserted into html page, though plays in absolute paths

I have embedded a SWF in my index page. The background image saved in the FLA shows up, but none of the remaining content. If I put in the URL to the actual SWF and HTML files, however, everything works fine.
palmettowebproductions.com is the URL of the site
this is the code in the index page:
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8.0.22.0" width="900" height="284" id="slideshow\"> <param name="movie" value="/flashslidebanner/slideshow.swf"/> <param name="quality" value="high" /> <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><embed src="/flashslidebanner/slideshow.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="900" height="284" wmode="transparent" name="slideshow"></embed></object>

This to me sounds like an issue with the ActionScript. Have you tried posting in the Flash forum?

Image won't display after uploaded

I created a text gif and inserted it into the page. Then entered the URL info etc... However, after being uploaded the image isn't there. There is no box with a red thing in it like what appears when the image is not in the correct folder..... just nothing. Like I never did it. I verified that the image name is correct and in the images folder. Weird. Any ideas?

All have loaded correctly.

FLV won't display upon upload

Here is the directory:
http://www.jrazzcreations.com/Flash/
I have the files stored there. I can view the video upon
preview, but no such luck after uploading. Can someone tell me what
I am missing or what I need to do differently? I am using Flash CS3
and Dreamweaver CS3.
Thanks,
j razz

That FLV is massive at 153mb. It probably will load if you
give it an hour
or two on broadband.

I hadn't tried it yet with regular HTML/flash files, so I
just did. They work
fine.
I was working on the assumption that cross-domain wouldn't
be an issue,
because both servers are behind the firewall, but I just
realized the LMS
server doesn't have the same domain so that might be it. Is
cross-domain
scripting a problem between servers within the same domain?
Like lms.domain.com
working with content.domain.com?

Font won't display once installed in MS Apps

I activated Baghdad and Al Bayan fonts in the Font Book for both my account and the computer. However, the font's don't show up in Office Applications like Word and Excel, how do I activate them in these apps?

Are they in ~(yourHome)/Library/Fonts? If not put them there. Then relaunch your MS apps.

ITunes won't display recently uploaded movies

I'm on iTunes 10.5.2 (11) on an iMac running OS 10.7.2.
I've got a decent sized video library with over 200+ movies (family DVD's and home movies).
I've been using Handbrake and creating videos for 2+ years that work just fine in iTunes, on my ATV's and my iOS devices.
This morning, I created a new video (via Handbrake), dropped it into iTunes and it didn't show up in the movie list. I made sure it wasn't tagged or encoded oddly and I just couldn't find it anywhere. Then I looked in the iTunes folder in my home account and the video was sitting there. I re-ripped the video, tried again and no different result.
I then took a family / home movie, ripped it with Handbrake and imported to iTunes and it wouldn't show up within iTunes either (although it clearly was in the folder in my user home / music / itunes as it should have been).
I then took an older movie that I had archived out of iTunes (but used to work just fine) and tried to re-import that and the same result.
So the summary is :
-- I drag and drop a movie that is in a format that has worked without issue in iTunes
-- Within the iTunes window, I see the message that it is copying the movie
-- I see the movie in the iTunes folder in the user home
-- But I can not see nor search for the movie within iTunes. Its like the list within iTunes is broken and no longer will allow updates
I've restarted iTunes a couple of times, done full shut downs of the Mac, run disk utility on my internal HD just in case...but no change in behavior.
Any ideas on what could be holding me up here?
Thanks,
Scott

Found enough references to issues caused by a corrupt iTunes plist that I pulled this out of the library and tried iTunes without it and that seems to have solved the problem.
