Webcams Not Working With Flash

I'm using Windows 8 64 bit, have tried on both chrome and firefox, flash version 11.8.
I'm trying to broadcast my webcam and audio in flash chat rooms. When I'm prompted to choose my video and audio sources the options show up but they can not be utilized properly. There isn't an issue with my webcams or mics because they work fine when streamed through encoders or used on Skype. The problem is specifically with flash chat rooms. I've uninstalled and reinstalled flash as a program, disabled and enabled as a plugin/add on, deleted the cache. I'm completely stumped on what the problem is please help I need to get this fixed ASAP.

Hi Alejandro,
Things to check:
1. Do you have the "Select" event coming form the table to display further info?
2. Does it work with Web Dynpro?
Did you know that if the compiler option is portal and on deployment you would see 2 deployed versions 1. HTML and the 2. Flex?
Let me know.
Good luck,
Dharmi

Webcam not working with flash 11

I have on my laptop Ubuntu 11.10 64bit with Firefox, I installed flash player 11 (64bit) from the Ubuntu Software Center (version flashplugin-installer 11.0.1.152ubuntu1).
When I browse websites that use webcam like ubiqq.com, chatroulette, etc... the flash popup asking me for webcam access permission shows up as usual, but I can't push any allow/disallow button, the popup is blocked and not responding. I did not have this issue with Ubuntu 11.04 and using the same version of flash player downloaded from adobe site and put it manually in the right folder.
Is this a known bug?

i'm not able to reproduce on 64-bit version of Ubuntu 11.04 and updated 11.10. for best experience, make sure to uninstall the wrapper and ensure the 64-bit flash binary is installer.
double check if flashplugin-installer 11.0.1.152ubuntu1 is the 64-bit version. i've seen posts where users are installing and geting the 32-bit version with the wrapper.
also, make sure the settings UI is not obscured and the browser windows is large enough to display the flash stage. there is a possibilty that the player thinks it's attempting to be hidden and won't allow clicks.

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,

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).

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).

Captivate 5.5 not working with Flash 11.4?

I had Flash 11.4 and published a module with click boxes that jump to URLs. The click boxes don't appear in either preview or published mode. No hand cursor, no click box, no URL, nothing. I've double checked the settings on the click boxes three times... they are correct, and the box is the top most thing on the slide.
Based on advice I found on this forum on other flash problems, I tried uninstalling Flash 11.4 and going back to 10.3. Now every time I try to launch the module I immediately go to the Flash 11.4 download page, and get the message "this content requires Flash to play - download now". So apparently you can't install an earlier version of Flash and use it with Captivate.
Which isn't a solution anyway, because my I don't want my viewers to have to do that to take this training. So what do I do? How do I make these urls available?
I won't waste my time calling Adobe support... I've made that mistake in the past. I'm really hoping someone here can help me. Upgrading to Captivate 6 isn't an option...it's not in the budget. They need to make 5.5 work with Flash - it's not that old. It's SO frustrating that every time there is a Flash upgrade I have problems with this stupid software. If they are going to publish to Flash, they need to keep the software current. They own both products for goodness sake - why don't they work together? Please help!
Thanks for your help.
Toni Rexrode

I doubt that Flash 11.4 is the cause of these issues. Having Flash 11.4 installed on your box doesn't mean your end users will need it.. Captivate 5.5 and 6 will only publish as high as Flash 10.2. So all your end users would need is that version or above.
I assume when you say you have check the settings on your click boxes, you made sure you have them configured to show the hand cursor? If this is not turned on then the normal mouse pointer is all that will be visible. But I'm betting you've checked that already.
What you may not realise is that sometimes Captivate will APPEAR to show your click boxes are on the top layer of the timeline when you look at it in Edit mode, but in fact they may be buried down under other objects in the layers and NOT be clickable at runtime. This has caught me out a few times.
To ensure that your clickboxes ARE on the top layers, select each click box in the timeline and then click the icon on the main toolbar to Bring Selected Objects to the Front. Then publish and test again.

Satellite A215-S7444 built-in webcam not working with MSN / Skype

Hi, I've just bought my laptop and right after installing the newest MSN and Skype, the video is not working with these programs. I tried to configure the video settings inside MSN and it told that "windows cannot connect to this webcam. It's in currently in use or not plugged in". The webcam is built-in, a Chicony USB 2.0.
Any hints ??

Hi there,
maybe you should download the webcam software for your machine from the toshiba driver download site and install it. The webcam works but the software sometimes behaves really weird so you just have to reinstall it. Maybe its an good idea to uninstall the old software before...
Greetings

Yoga 2 Pro: Webcam not working with Skype?

Hi all, weird problem. For some reason skype cannot load the webcam built into the Yoga 2 Pro.
It works in the Windows 8 camera app just fine.
I formatted and everything and it will just not work.
IT WAS WORKING two days ago, that's why I'm so confused. I've installed the drivers on the support page and have had 0 luck.
I'm not sure if this is a permission thing or what..
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately I've reinstalled the driver after uninstalling it from the device manager 10 times. I also formatted and reinstalled, but that didn't fix anything.
The camera works for the camera app + the webcam test online. I've tried rollback on the drivers, and installing earlier versions of skype with no luck.
Very strange, all it does is show the loading sign, and never loads.
This is the desktop version of skype btw. I'm going to try it with the non-dekstop version tonight and see if it works.
EDIT: Is there any other camera source besides 'Lenovo EasyCamera'? Their are two drivers on the drivers page, which one is recommended?

Built in isight camera not working with flash

My built in isight camera on my macbook works just fine in photobooth and in skype or ichat.. but just in the past week or so, it will not work when im on websites that use flash. I've seen some threads that say that I need to go into settings and make sure that the camera chosen is the USB. When i go into flash settings, the only options are Google1, Google2, or Built in isight. It doesn't work with any of them. Does anyone have any idea how I can make it work again?

Your problem is not the same as that posted by the OP, and your system info shows you using Mac OS X (10.5.6).
For your symptoms with this system, I suggest you do the following:
(1) Apply the 10.5.8 Combo Update using the following process:
• Backup your Mac and turn off Time Machine
• Disconnect peripherals and restart Mac
• Use Disk Utility to repair permissions
• Download and install
http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_8_ComboUpdate
• Repair permissions again immediately following the restart that finishes the update.
• Test whether Flash works for you now.
(• Turn Time Machine on later when you are satisfied that the update worked.)
(2) After applying the 10.5.8 Combo, if you are still having problems, download and install the latest Flash player compatible with your system:
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
Also check any other third-party browser plugins or other add ons. Apply all available updates and uninstall any third-party items that are known to be incompatible with your system.

FireFox 3.6.16 still not working with Flash!

Since updating to the latest version of FireFox 3.6 I have not been able to watch flash video's on YouTube and other sites, also any flash based content is blank or black.
I'm using Mac OS X 10.5.8 on a G5 PPC so Flash 10.1.102.64, the latest for PPC Mac's.
I've gone through all the usual steps of disabling plug-in's and extensions with no luck.
I'm also using the latest Safari 5 and it is still working with YouTube and other Flash sites.
ETA - Just found something weird, if I launch the QuickTime Player (not the plug-in) after launching FireFox then Flash appears to act normally, even after quiting QT.

@cor-el
Thanks for clearing up my misunderstanding. As i understood now it is in fact only a "DOM storage data" topic.
Quote from betterprivacy:
''"Disabling DOM storage (instead of deleting the file on shutdown) causes a website script to throw an exception. This means that the execution of the script is aborted immediately, not just the DOM storage instruction is ignored. None of the following script instructions would be executed, even if those instructions have nothing to do with DOM storage. That is the reason why -with DOM storage disabled- sites like CNN.com will cease to play videos."''

Eventing not working with FLASH

Hello,
My VC application events will not work if i choose FLASH(Flex2) in the "Runtime" attribute of the Compiler settings.
Can anybody give me a hand with this?
thanks,

Hi Alejandro,
Things to check:
1. Do you have the "Select" event coming form the table to display further info?
2. Does it work with Web Dynpro?
Did you know that if the compiler option is portal and on deployment you would see 2 deployed versions 1. HTML and the 2. Flex?

HP Deluxe Webcam not working with Snow Leopard

All links to lists of webcams recommended for Mac OS X seem to be from the pre-Snow Leopard era, including the Mac Compatible Webcams site often recommended on these forums: http://www.mac-compatible-web-cam.com/
The Mac Compatible Webcams site above recommends the HP Deluxe Webcam (KQ246AA#ABA), a UVC compliant model.
However, I can say from long and painful experience that the HP Deluxe Webcam does not work on my Mac Mini (2009 edition) running Mac OS X 10.6.1. I've tried many things to get it working, based on info in these forums and elsewhere, but with no success. Some apps detect and can use its built-in microphone, but none have been able to use the camera itself, including Skype, iChat, Photo Booth, macam, meebo.com, and probably others I can't remember.
If anyone has been able to get the HP Deluxe Webcam to work under Mac OS X 10.6, particularly on a Mac Mini, I'd love to hear about it.
For that matter, there is very little online generally about getting any external usb webcam to work under Mac OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard).
However, today in a Mac-oriented computer store, before my very eyes the salesperson plugged a Macally IceCam2 webcam fresh out of the box into a USB port on a Mac Mini running Snow Leopard, and the IceCam2 worked perfectly and instantly. It really did plug and play. So unless I get enlightenment from this or other online sources in the next day or 2, I'm going to exchange the HP Deluxe Webcam for a Macally IceCam2. If nothing else, seeing whether it works equally well on my Mac Mini will be a good diagnostic measure.

K T wrote:
the IceCam2 worked perfectly and instantly
Why wait....go for it.
Good question. Two reasons: the store where I bought the HP Deluxe Webcam charges a 15% restocking fee on opened returns.
But more significantly, the HP Deluxe Webcam has received very good reviews and user comments online, whereas the Macally IceCam2 has received very mixed reviews, with more bad than good. Several reviewers and users raise the same negatives about the IceCam2: poor light sensitivity, bad colour distortion, and bad audio quality on its built-in microphone. And both webcams cost about the same.
So I've posted this question to a few forums and will wait a couple days to see if anyone can help me get the HP Deluxe Webcam working on my Mac Mini under Snow Leopard. If not, it's IceCam2 for me!

Touchsmart webcam not working with any messenger programs.

My Cam doesnt work with any messenger programs.. (yahoo, msn, skype...) Just bought it right before christmas and appearantly im not alone in this... can anyone help? its the only way my husband and i can see each other because he is deployed to Iraq. Please help!!!

Hi.
first - please go to tools>options on skype, choose whichever is right for camera options and make sure the correct camera is appears in the drop-box. Anything with "hp-camera" or "cybershot" will do.
if it still doesn't work you will need to open the touchsmart software and disable the camera usage through that software - because once a software uses the webcam - any other software cannot do use it. ( just like you cannot use the camera on skype and on msn messenger at the same time.
here is the HP artical about hoe to enable webcams on touchsmarts - its long , but might be helpful
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&docname=c01923517
hope this helps, let us know how it goes.
