Timeline disappear from flash workspace

I am doing my project in adobe flash cc 2014. I don't know what I did. Now I don't see the timeline under the stage. So I can't continue doing my project.

You may have closed the window or you may have a tabbed window sitting in front of the Timeline window. If you don't see a tab for the Timeline, go to the WIndows menu and look for the Timeline, it's toward the top in the list. If it has a check mark next to it then it is open. If not, then select it and it will open.

Layer disappeared from timeline

I'm creating some banners with Edge Animate for the first time.
I started with the biggest one, now I need to create some more downscaled versions.
Clearly the easiest and fastes way is to duplicate the edge project and modify the layers size position etc...
Duplicating the project folder and changing the file name didn't work for me (gave error "edge can't read the html file"), so I managed to do it with "save as" and changing the "project1.an" name to a new one in a clean folder. When opened, Edge creates all the assets referencing the new name.
Everything ok until here, but then I noticed that the top layer "link" (it was a hidden clickable div with the banner link) has disappeared from timeline, but it's still present in the "elements" tab.
The link was still working, then after a couple of cmd+return it disappeared also from the stage.
I created a new rectangular div with the tool, but the new one is also not present in the timeline but only in the "elements" tab.
Now I'm worried that this could cause problems on publishing or future edits. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks for your help.

Never mind, after this post I already found the answer.
I had checked without noticing the button at the bottom of timeline "Only Show Animated Elements".
Unchecking all the layers were there.
Hope this can help if anyone has accidentally the same problem!

Flash player disappeared from Firefox; "required privilege?"

Hi everyone,
I've spent hours & hours reading different posts online, on adobe.com, etc, & find similar situations, but can't find anything on my exact issue. (sorry if i'm beating a dead horse here & asking something that's already been dealt with....if so, please direct me to any posts that have dealt with this).
About a week ago, my flash player just "disappeared" from my Firefox, but still works in IE & shows version 10.1 in IE when i check it at Adobe's about page. Everytime I try to watch videos in FF, it tells me i'm missing the plug in & to install flash player..doesn't matter what site it is. It lets me download flash player for FF, but isn't showing in my plug in or download window in FF, & even after restarting FF, still won't play any flash stuff. I even uninstalled FF & reinstalled it.
Here's the message I get everytime I install Flash Player from Adobe's site: C:users/Teresa/appData/Local/Temp/FP_PL_PFS_INSTALLER.exe   "A required privilege is not held by the client". I have no idea what this means. I have a 1 month old Toshiba laptop, Windows 7, 64 bit, & videos played just fine until about a week or less ago. One morning, they just wouldn't play in FF. Don't know what happened. I can still watch vids in IE with no problems, & it shows that I have Version 10.1 installed in my program list.
Can anyone out there help me figure out what's going on?
Thanks a bunch!

Adobe Flash Player has Disappeared from my FF Add-ons & won't reinstall

Adobe Flash Player has Disappeared from my FF (version 4.0.1) Add-ons & won't reinstall. The Adobe Test page says that I've successfully installed the latest version (10.3.181.34) of Flash Player but after trying this 4 times, Flash just refuses to show up in my add-ons/plug-ins and now some websites are not working correctly. (Using a Win7 Home, 64-bit, SP 1 desktop.)

Because the are different products and load/use/display different types of files. You either have both installed because you have used websites that need one or the other, or you don't. Don't worry about why they are named the way they are named, that is Adobe's decision. Just accept the facts and go on with your life.

Issue with Random Blocks of Audio disappearing from Timeline

I am having a problem with seemingly random blocks of audio tracks disappearing from my edit. I will be scrolling through somewhere I haven't worked on or even looked at, in a few hours or days, and I'll be missing chunks of audio. At first I thought I was just losing my mind, but I can see that transitions that I've tacked on at the ends to fade in/out are still there in their "storylines", just floating by themselves. Its almost like they were just straight up deleted by hand. But I know that I didn't do any such thing. So, what is going on? This isn't the first time its happened, and its impossible to know when it does, so I could end up losing hours of work reverting to a backup. But it is equally frustrating (slowly) flicking back and forth between two projects to copy the audio tracks back every few days. It also mostly seems to happen on audio with transitions/crossfades, but I have found a few places where it has just been reduced to 1 frame. Weird.
I am working on a fairly complex film about 45 minutes in length, with compound clips of synced interviews cut up in the "Main" storyline, then with action shots and info stacked on top, and some 1-3 minute music tracks and video-less narrations below. Working on a 5 month old MBP, 10.9.5, 16gb ram, everything's up to date
I just need this to stop happening is the main thing. What can I do about it? It is very frustrating that these bugs are still popping up all the time. Not a thing that should be expected from a "pro" application.
Thanks for any insight.
Screen Shot below is example: you can see where 4blocks have been deleted, just leaving the crossfades hanging. Extremely annoying, and time wasting.

You have 10.6 on that machine, I suggest you stick with it for performance, third party hardware and software reasons as long as possible.
Consider 10.8 (not 10.7) when it's released, because 10.7 and 10.8 will require a new investment in software and newer third party hardware as it requires newer drivers the old machines won't have. (forced upgrade because of software, really nice of them)

Quicktime movie export from Flash CS3 is skipping frame.

When I try to export Quicktime movie from Flash CS3, the
resulting mov file is skipping frames. i.e.: The movie is showing
frame number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 7, 7, 10, 11, 12, 12, 12, 15
etc...
As you can see the frame number 7 is repeated 3 times and
frame 8 and 9 are nowhere to be found.
The last configuration I used is 960x540, Sorenson video 3
medium quality, 25 fps, keyframe every 25 frames. 6400 kbits/s.
I tried various configurations,with different codecs and even
with keyframe all frames and I always get simillar problems.
Anyone have an idea what is going on, and how to fix this?
Thank you,
Olivier.

The QT exporter in Flash is honestly my least favorite
feature - not the feature itself but how it
works (or how it doesn't work in some cases). For me it is
almost unusable unless you have a very
short timeline, small stage, lower frame rate - like AS
generated effects or something - otherwise,
for true frame accuracy to video output - it is not reliable
enough and not fast enough for any real
world production environment.
So typically for me - I love SWF2Video (www.flashants.com) as
it takes any SWF and makes it into an
AVI that is frame accurate no matter what the frame rate is -
quite incredible - enough so that I
always felt it should have been bundled with Flash (as well
as Wacom tablets).
Harmony is an incredible product - as is SOLO and TBS (Toon
Boom mStudio) - each of those programs
are dedicated animation programs designed for output to video
- Flash has a lot of hats to fill and
it was never really designed for animation to video even
though many of us have found it suitable
for all intents and purposes as an animation program for full
production.
But all in all - the quicktime exporter doesn't really
deliver how we would expect it too I am sorry
to say - I only hope it works as well as it does on the Mac
(Mac users could always choose to export
to Quicktime Video but not PC users).
For now if I am exporting to video I keep it all on the
timeline or nested in Graphic symbols or use
the SWF2Video tool.
hope this helps.

How to use an dynamic text from Flash in FlashBuilder with swf ?

Hello,
i'm trying to develop a game in flex builder and i got a problem with the dymanic text i've imported from flash. I want to insert a scoreboard in my application and for doing that i should use dynamic text in flash. I create a dynamic text in flash and then a import it to Flash Builder in a movie clip, and i called the dynamic text "Score". Now i've tried to use the "Score" variable to change the value of the dynamic text box un my flash builder application, but it doesn't change anything.
I read somewhere that i've got to use the score.text value to change the number of my score but that doesn't works because Flash Builder tells me that this sort of variable don't contain the .text value.
Thank you for trying to help me.
bye.

Thanks Ned,
I always welcome learning something new.
I did not know creating a new keyframe,
creates a new instance.
Yes, I had used the same dynamic text field instance name in
numerous, new layers (great observation).
With the objective to display the User's name throughout
the timeline (on and off)...
I'll attempt to paraphrase your solution;
Use a single layer to display the dynamic text field.
Extend this layer's timeline throughout the movie, or end use of the dynamic text field.
Help with this one ??
Set the visible properties to true or false as need through out the timeline.
( Does require an AS3 ? )
I'll give that a try.....
~~
Side of effect of using the above solution;
The SWF in it's attempted state, uses the dynamic text field instance, in
different places, different text sizes, on the stage, throughout the Movie.
(i.e. the User's first name appears in different sentences...)
Per the solution above,
I believe I will be limited to One location, one format setting.
Is this assumption correct?
I can make this work from a display / Movie point of view.
However, your first VAR concept, noted above, might be
worth exploring should more flexibility be required.
Thanks for making the time to coach...

Audio from Flash CS3 Video overlapping

audio from Flash CS3 Video overlapping
help stopping the FLVPlayback instance (which has an instance
name of theVideo) when another button is clicked!
How do I stop flv playback when user clicks a navigation
button ...
Excuse me in advance for asking about a topic that may be
very popular!
I'm using the attached code to go from the main stage to one
subset of .swf files (loaded movies) and I apparently have no
problems with overlapping. Hell, the files even seem to unload
themselves correctly. Then, when I go to my second subset of .swf
files (with the exact same AS3 structure), which has a Flash Video
file (made by the FLV Playback component), I get into an
overlapping problem associated with the audio.
How can I stop, cancel, or unload the audio when the file is
clicked away from (the user selects another button on the main
stage)?
Code attached. Please let me know if anything else is needed.
Yours Sincerely,
Jntspecialty

I have tried to clean up code and do this right.
I need help referencing (storing the value in the variable
"stopsoundoverlapReq") the "flvplayback instance AFTER theVideo is
instantiated (ie, the frame that contains theVideo has rendered)"
correctly.
Also, now I need help with the name of my nav bar button's
method followed by parentheses, which should include the
appropriate method parameter.
On my main timeline, I tried to clean up the code and use:
var stopsoundoverlapReq:FLVPlayback =
stop("videopage.swf/MovieClip(ldr.content).theVideo");
Then for my nav bar button on this same timeline use:
any_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stopsoundoverlap);
function stopsoundoverlap(event:MouseEvent):void
stopsoundoverlap.stop(stopsoundoverlapReq);
The 3 errors I get now are :
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant:
FLVPlayback. var stopsoundoverlapReq:FLVPlayback =
stop("videopage.swf/MovieClip(ldr.content).theVideo");
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method stop through a
reference with static type Function.
stopsoundoverlap.stop(stopsoundoverlapReq);
1137: Incorrect number of arguments. Expected no more than 0.
var stopsoundoverlapReq:FLVPlayback =
stop("videopage.swf/MovieClip(ldr.content).theVideo");

The thumbnail images have disappeared from one of my sequences

I have 3 sequences open in the timeline and the thumbnail images have disappeared from the clips in one of them. It's very frustrating to work without them, how do I get them back?

Thanks so much! That actually wasn't it though... The thumbnail display was already set to 'name plus thumbnail' but 'track size' was set to 'custom'. Once I changed 'track size' to 'small' (which is what my other sequences which were displaying thumbnails were set to) the thumbnails reappeared. Yipee!!!!

Can't DownloadFirefox for Mac. download disappears from download window in safari. pop up windows are not blocked.

I have watched firefox download. Once it is complete it disappears from the download window in Safari.
My pop up blocker is shut off.
I can download when I am in Administrator mode but not under individual username account.

You should be able to check in Safari to find where downloads are going, in Preferences > General. You can also change the download directory for Safari. If you cannot get Safari to work on that computer, maybe download Firefox on some other computer and transfer the file on a flash stick or CD.

SSID disappearing from Aeronet C1240

Hi,
I'm having a strange problem in the office with one of my Aeronet C1240 access points.
My current topology is a hub-and-spoke with my HQ which contains 2 Cisco wireless LAN controllers with version 6 OS. I have 10 AP's, 2 of which are in the HQ building and 8 AP's spread over VPN using HREAP that are in our branches throughout the country.
The problem that I'm having is specifically related to one of my AP's and that is that the ESSID located on the management VLAN keeps disappearing from the device..... this seems to be a local problem as we haven't experienced any thing of this sort with any other branch in our topological setup. Currently we have 2 VLANs trunked to the AP, VLAN10 which is a guest VLAN that shows up without any problem and VLAN1 (management VLAN) which is for employees.
The ESSID from the management VLAN keeps disappearing and we can't figure out why this is happening as any configuration change has not been implemented and as stated previously seems to be a localized problem.
Checking the device output both VLAN's 1 and 10 are propogating to the device and each sub interface IP is ping'able.
I have never come across any issue like this before and am totally baffled by what the cause of this could be.......
Can anyone give me any advice or tell me which output is necessary to help debug??
This is the current logfile from the AP:

Can't open ai doc from flash drive.

Hello.
I run CS3 on my Mac, but have CS4 running on a PC laptop. Last night, I was working on a few ai files that I originally created on my Mac (in CS3). I had no problems with the files and saved them all directly to my flash drive. When I tried to open the same files this morning from the flash drive on my Mac, I got the following message: A file I/O error has occurred. Each ai file I worked on gave me the same error. (Incedentally, the InDesign files I used opened on the Mac just fine.)
I have swapped platforms/versions before with no trouble. I back saved the ai files to CS3. I tried to open the files on the PC, but it wouldn't open on the PC either.
I am not sure if I have an Illustrator problem, a flash drive problem or what? Also, I saved some of the ai files from the PC as eps files to the flash drive and they have seemed to disappear all-together. Maybe it is a PC thing? (I have very little experience with PCs)
Help is desperatly needed. I hate to redo the artwork if I can help it. Naturally, I am under a deadline, so I may have to anyway, but I would like to prevent this from happening in the future.
Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to offer.

Thank you. I guess I learned a lesson. I just hate learning these things the "hard way."
For some reason, when I tried (again) to open the files from the flash on the PC, the PC wanted to scan it for problems. I allowed it - thinking it might clean up anything that might be causing problems. Only it didn't help at all. In fact, it converted one of the ai files into a text file! Then, more of the files disappeared from the flash after the scan, though it didn't ask permission to delete any files.
I am a Mac girl, so this kind of reinforces any prejudices I have had against PCs. In all of my years of using a Mac, never have files disappeared from my hard drive!
If anyone has any great ideas as far as fixing the ai/text file, that would be great. Otherwise, I had better get busy re-creating all the art. I promise to be cautious using flash drives with ai files going forward.
Thank you!
