Unexpected display of Local Storage pop-up screen.

For many years now I have used a dictionary application (Shorter Oxford English Dictionary or SOED6) which is essentially a tool for displaying dictionary data on a monitor screen.
This application was run originally on a Pentium 4 under Windows XP, and more recently on an Intel Core i7 under Windows 8 and later under Windows 8.1. During the time it was running on the Pentium the then-current versions of Flash Player were installed and maintained. I only installed Flash Player (currently v 14.0.0.145) on my Windows 8.1 system about two to three weeks ago.
Two days ago I tried to run the SOED6 application, and found that it locked up as soon as the basic screen was displayed, with an Adobe Flash Player Settings message superimposed across the display (see below):
This was the first time I had ever seen this happen with the application. I cannot remember just when I had run it previously, but I feel reasonably confident that the change in behavior only happened after installing Flash Player.
The major immediate problem was that the settings screen did not respond as might be expected to the "Allow" button (it flickered briefly, but nothing further occurred). There was no response to the "Deny " button either . The "?" symbol did take me to a Flash Player Help page on my browser (which for the record is Firefox 30.0). After a few hours searching for information online I did manage to work out that I could use the Adobe Flash Player Settings Manager to reserve a local storage area before trying to run the application. This circumvented the problem, but leaves me with two questions:
1. Why has this display suddenly started popping up? (additional security feature?)
2. Given that the appearance of the display is a valid feature, why is it not responding to user input as it should do?

I don't know the answer to your questions, but you can set storage settings permanently in the Flash Player Settings Manager.

    You might try tweaking your global privacy settings.  I suspect it's set to "always ask."
      Go to this page -- http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager02.htm l -- which contains the settings panel for Flash Player, and click on the various "deny" buttons to disable this.  (It's a good idea to click on all the tabs to check the settings.)
    If this works for you, please post back.  (I know it worked for me.)

  • "Local Storage" pop-up?

    Anyone seen this pop-up window asking you to authorize "local storage"? It's new, and looks bogus. Even clicking "Deny" doesn't make it go away. What's up with that?

    This is a standard Flash dialog requesting additional storage.  This page describes how this works and what options you have:

    And this page allows you to make these changes globally.

  • Adobe Flash Player Settings 'local storage' pop up will not go away

    I didn't see a Flash Player selection that fits, so hope this group is the right one...For the last few weeks when I access a website with a video ability, an Adobe Flash message pops up saying the site wants to place information on my computer.  It offers 'accept' and 'deny'.  If I select 'deny' it just stays and I cannot watch the video.  Please tell me how to make it disappear without being forced to selection 'allow' which I do not want to do.  I'm not a techie, so please give me as simple instruction as you can.many thanks

    I asked ITV to help and the reply said:
    If clearing your cache does not resolve your issue then please follow the
    below instructions to clear your local flash storage:
    On a PC:
    Click Start
    Select Control Panel
    Click on Flash Player
    Under the Storage tab click Delete all

  • Is it possible to customize "Local Storage" pop-up dialog?

    I am writing a Flex app that will need to store about 500K
    worth of data to the user's local shared object space to improve
    subsequent load times. Is there any way to customize the popup that
    appears when I commit more than 100K to shared object space?

    Hi,
    I don't think you can customize that.

  • Local storage proble

    WE are unable to play Bingo Island on Facebook. There is a local storage pop-up, be we cannot click on allow, deny or the blue underlined web link.

    The easiest workaround is to just avoid this dialog.
    Go to Control Panel > Flash Player > Storage and choose Allow sites to save information on this computer, then refresh the page with your game.

  • I get a pop up of "adobe flash player settings" requesting local storage and it will not respond to either deny or accept.  Help please

    I get a pop up of "adobe flash player settings" requesting local storage.  It will not respond to either deny or accept.  Please help.

    From the menu bar, select
               ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Flash Player ▹ Storage
    Select either one of the radio buttons marked
              Allow sites to save information on this computer
              Block all sites from storing information on this computer
    according to your preference. The usual display of Flash content doesn't require that you allow it to save information. Note also that this setting only affects Flash; it has no effect on web cookies or AutoFill.

  • Retrieve variable value from local Storage and display on canvas

    Hi
    I'm working on a project that has multiple html files (the projects are split into 12 so 12 different edge projects and im linking them via window.open()). I have a variable that keeps track of correct answers stored in LocalStorage html object. I have managed to get the localStorage variable to increment up by one each time the object is correct however my last step is to get the variable and them display the result on the canvas. I have tried
    var outPut localStorage.getItem(' ') method to retrieve the variable then used the set and get method to display the result however it doesn't work. Im not sure if I need a for loop to go though the localStorage and get the elements
    Code:
    // insert code to be run when the composition is fully loaded here
    yepnope({nope:['jquery-ui-1.10.0.custom.min.js','jquery.ui.touch-punch.min.js'],complete: init}); // load the jquery files
    sym.setVariable("myScore", 0);
    var c = localStorage["myCount"] || 0; //loading from localStorage
    function init(){
    sym.getSymbol("barLimit").$('scrubber').draggable({start: function(e){
    },drag: function(e,ui){ // start: ...  // Find original position of dragged image
    var leftLimitScrubber  = sym.getSymbol('barLimit').$('scrubber').position().left; // position of the scrubber
    var rightLimitScrubber  = sym.getSymbol('barLimit').$('leftLimit').position().left;
    var LimitTwoLeft  = sym.getSymbol('barLimit').$('rightLimit').position().left;
    if(leftLimitScrubber == rightLimitScrubber){
      sym.getSymbol('correctBar1').play('in'); //
      sym.getSymbol('nextButton').play('in');
      sym.getSymbol('incorrectBar1').play('out'); //
      sym.getSymbol('thumbsDown1').play('out'); //
      sym.getSymbol('thumbsUp1').play('in'); //
      sym.getSymbol('congrats').play('in'); //
    localStorage["myCount"] = parseInt(c)+1; //Converting string to number, and then saving it
    console.log("numberOfCorrectAnswers", localStorage["myCount"]);
    var finalScore = sym.getVariable("myScore");
    finalScore = c;
    sym.setVariable("myScore", finalScore);
    sym.$("Score").html(finalScore);
    } else if(leftLimitScrubber == LimitTwoLeft){
    sym.getSymbol('incorrectBar1').play('in');
    sym.getSymbol('correctBar1').play('out');
    sym.getSymbol('thumbsUp1').play('out');
    sym.getSymbol('thumbsDown1').play('in');
    axis: "x",
    containment: "parent"
           //for (var i = 0; i < localStorage.length; i++){ // iterate throught the local storage
             //var getItem = localStorage.getItem(localStorage.key(i));
              //if(getItem == 'numberOfCorrectAnswers' ){
    The above is the code for the 12th project in  this projects it needs to display the variable inside the object localStorage and display on the canvas.
    Any help will mean a lot. Thank You in advance
    P.S edge animate has a lot of bugs hard to code in

    what you need to do is to create a text box and set a default value of zero. Once that is don't you need a code on the stage which grabs the value form the localStorage object. I used the .text() jquery method to display the value on the canvas. So the zero will be replaced with whatever the value of the localStorage is.
    You also need a if statement to check if the localStorage is undefined, if its not then grab the value and display on the canvas.
    e.g
    var number = localStorage['finalValue']; // for the sake of completeness I had to put this line of code
    if( number ! = undefined){ // if not undefined so the object exits then ...
         sym.$(' (text identifier) '). text(number); // note text identifier is the name of the text box you create in edge
    } // Done

  • Trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings

    trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings. What am I to do?

    The storage you purchased is in the cloud, and doesn't do anything with your pad.  Your problem is simply that you have too much content on your pad.   Go to settings, general, usage, and it will show you how much space you have avaliable on your pad.  If you let the screen sit for a while, all the apps will be displayed, and you can see how much stuff you have associated with each.
    You have to no option but to delete some of the content on your pad.  Videos, comics, pitcures and some music files use a lot of space.   The cloud allows you to leave stuff there, so you can get it when you need it.

    Hi
    U need to active the tab you want to show:
    So you should set the ok_code (of the tab) value to field ACTIVETAB
    <TABSTRIP>-activetab = <OK_CODE>.
    And transfer the value of subscreen number to the subscreen area:
    CALL SUBSCREEN SUBSCREEN1
                 INCLUDING G_CTRL_TABSTRIP-PROG

  • Safari 5.1.7 local storage not always clearing upon reset

    There are several threads through out this forum regarding cookies being accepted regardless of settings, but much of those seem to be fixed by one of the recent security updates (seperate from an actual Safari update), including fixed for me. But, have noticed that "local storage" items do not always clear out upon a reset of safari (all boxes checked). In fact, sometimes, it takes two or three resets to completely clear them out.  I have verified this behavior on several mac's running SL each yeilding the same.  I just wondered if anyone else has seen this, or has found a solution (or if this is expected behavoiur). Does this indicate a security threat within the browser?  I have used the feedback to Apple to report this.
    I did find this explanation, however:
    https://developer.apple.com/library/safari/#documentation/iphone/conceptual/safa rijsdatabaseguide/Name-ValueStorage/Name-ValueStorage.html

    BDAqua,
    Nope. It's very erratic. For example, just now I cycled several times between the inbox and the smart mailbox and even closed and re-opened. The inbox showed messages. Then I quit mail and re-opened, the inbox was empty. It took a couple more cycles of quit and re-open to get an inbox display. But as soon as I got it back on, and then closed or changed mailboxes, it disappeared when I went back to the inbox.
    Hellofa way to run a railroad.
    And just for reference, when I first had this issue last week under 10.6.8, I read several posts on this forum wherein other users had problems with the inbox display. Other than the smart mailbox "fix", I never did find a definitive solution or explanation as to why it is occuring.

  • IPhone would not let me delete individual song from library, tried deleting album to remove music from local storage, now certain songs from album do not show in iTunes match on iPhone only on computer

    Upon completion of matching and uploading my very large library of music (+15,000), I wanted to see how iTunes Match worked on my iPhone. I started it and selected the first album in the list to listen to. I let it play the entire album and then decided that I wanted to remove certain songs off of the iPhone's local storage. Tried to delete the individual songs and it would not let me. So I figured that I would go back and just delete the album. After selecting delete I went back to listen to one of the songs on the album and realized that it deleted several of the songs from the iTunes Match completely. When pulling iTunes up on my computer the songs are still there but does not give me the option to upload to iTunes Match.
    I have tried turning off Match on iPhone and back on (doesn't seem to do anything cause when turned off the iPhone still displays the music.)
    Then tried power cycling. (Still shows the music)
    Then I tried power cycling again and resyncing the phone and the iPhone still shows the music as it was on the phone.
    How do I get the music to be accessable on the iPhone again.. I have been messing with this for the course of 3 hours now.. and any help would be appreciated!!
    iPhone 3GS 8GB

    Actually Michael I know exactly how to delete.. The iPhone would not let me swipe to the left to delete the individual song, so I went to the album view and did it there.. The issue I am having is a bug because it removed 3/4 of the albums availablity off my iPhone.. You post proved no help because it is basic troubleshooting which, if you read my post, I have already done.. I did however figure out how to fix my issue on my own.. Basically I had to remove the album from my iTunes on my computer and upload it again to iTunes Match..
