When loaded in an internet browser, a Captivate 2 exported flash player 8(.swf) file doesn't pause when it should

I have made tutorials using Captivate 2 and exported them as
an .swf file. When played in Flash Player 8, when previewed in
Captivate 2, and when loaded in an internet explorer, it doesn't
pause at each slide like I have programmed it to do in Captivate 2.
I have put buttons in each slide and make them pause the slide
until the viewer clicks on it an tells it to move on. It randomly
doesn't pause and continues on to the next slide. It sometimes
works and sometimes doesn't work. It's not consistently one slide
and not another. It is random. Does anyone have a clue what is
wrong?

Thank you for pointing out that I need to download the projector. How do I ensure that every time I double click on a swf file, it does not launch Adobe Flash Professional, but instead, it launches Flash Player ver 14. Do I have to place the Flash Player Projector in the library or applications, where exactly should it be placed.
Next, when I launched Flash Player ver 14, to open the swf file, I clicked on a button that is linked to a website - I get a message:
"Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation,... To let this application  communicate with the Internet, click on settings" I clicked on settings and get the attached panel, which does not make sense to me. And I cannot launch a website by clicking on the button contained in the swf file. Please advise.
I am using a Mac Book Pro, OSX 10.9.3

  • Flash CS5.5, SWF file doesn't load TLF text.

    Hiya,
    I just downloaded the trial version of Flash 5.5. I was trying to a tutorial from  Adobe Classroom in a Book: Flash Professional CS5. I was trying to do lesson 7 which is all about TLF text.
    In the tutorial, you insert text that is TLF text. Most of the text doesn't do anything (it's Read-Only). But there is one area that is supposed to be a Mortgage Calcualtor and functions with ActionScript.
    I inserted the ActionScript that makes the Mortgage Calculator text do the proper math. My problem happens when I try to test the movie: the SWF file doesn't display any of the TLF text, and the Output panel gives me the following:
    ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable TLFTextField is not defined.
    ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable TCMText is not defined.
    I am confused because there aren't any variables with those names in any of the files of the tutorial, or in the ActionScript I entered. Where is Flash getting those variable names from? O_o
    I even turned the text back into Classic text to see if that helped, but I still get the error. Could this be a glitch with Flash 5.5?
    Thanks for your time.
    Tara

    That file has all the menu items in it.
    A crossdomain file is use as a security measure. Perhaps I see it because I use a webpage on my own server to display your SWF file. Check to see if that's the case with you.
    But I gave it another try.
    I downloaded the menu.swf and the xml file and stored them in a folder. I use a custom webpage and stored that in the same folder.
    Instead of the full URL is simply use the filename.
    <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000" id="obj1"
    codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/ flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" border="0"
    width="870" height="800">
    <param name="movie" value="menu.swf">
    <param name="quality" value="High">
    <embed src="menu.swf"
    pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" name="obj1"
    width="870" height="150"></object>
    That works.
    When I paste the <object> code in the HTML Snippet and use relative URLs to the menu in the folder mentioned above, I noticed that the XMLHorizontalMenu.xml is expected to be in the Pagename_files folder. That folder belongs to the iWeb pages it is embedded in. When I put the xml file there, the menu works.
    You have to check the design of the menu.swf file.
    Otherwise, store all files in a separate folder and use a <iframe> to embed it.

    i have a HP laptop, when i try to do certain things that require flash player it tells me i need to install the latest version so when i try it says its already installed. i have tried all the trouble shooting suggestions and it stll isnt working. I even checked the activex filtering and that doesn't seem to be the problem.

    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11
    If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPhone shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

  • The Flash player plug-in has been disabled and when requested I updated it. it still says I am out of date. this is on a 64bit compuet

    When flash player stopped working the image came up and said I needed to update flash player. I have a 64 bit W7 computer and Adobe installed v11-64mss. When checking the plug-ins, Firefox still says my flash player is out of date.

    Are you downloading it directly from Adobe - of from the site where you get the error message?
    Never download from a third party site as you may get an older version or a corrupted version.

  • I down loaded Firefox 3.6.10, did the execution and still when load it as my browser I get a message that says "Almost there". What is going on?

    When I load Firefox as my browser, a screen comes up that wants me to download the 3.6.10 version again but, as I said, it has been downloaded, executed and I have tried this several times with the same result. I run Vista Home Premium operating system. I can still browse the internet but still get my home page as "You are almost there" or some such. What should I do?

    I have tried everything I could to fix this, but some things require actually being on Firefox, and since I cannot get on, I cannot click on the tabs to do it. I have even totally uninstalled firefox, and that has not fixed this. I still get the same message that firefox is running and I need to close it or restart (which I have also tried dozens of times). I have removed things like Java, and that has not helped either. If I cannot even get on line in firefox, how can I fix this. I am not crazy about using internet explorer, but right now, it is my only option. I even tried to start in safe mode, and the same message box pops up!

  • When I click on a link I get sent to a bunch of other sites and the problem doesn't occur when I use windows internet browser.

    When I click on a link, whether e-mail, yahoo or other search engines, E-bay, Amazon, etc. I get sent to another site. If I click back and then re-click on the original site I get sent to where I wanted to be. While I am browsing on a web page of any of the above, or other sites, I sometimes get a voice ad or possibly a video, but I can't locate it or turn it off. This does not happen when I use windows internet, or it's Google chrome internet, only with Firefox. I have used Ad aware, and Mal-bytes anti-virus but they come up blank.

  • Captivate 8: audio file doesn't work when I add it to an object slide

    Hi everyone,
    I have problems with the audio in Captivate 8.  This doesn't work when I press an object slide (button) that has an audio file incorporated. This issue doesn't happen when I add sound to an individual slide.
    I have tried to fix the problem by changing the preferences, but nothing
    Any suggestion is welcomed!!
    Evelyn

    An audio file that is attached to an object or a slide, will play when that object or slide become visible. I don't know what you mean by 'has an audio file incorporated'? Do you mean that it is attached to the button in its audio part of the Properties, which is in the Options tab? In that case the audio will just play when that button gets visible, if it is at the start of a slide, audio will play at the start of that slide.
    If you want an audio clip to play only when a button is clicked, you need to use an action 'Play audio', or make an audio object visible.

    Beware: if you do this with a simple action triggered by the button, the playhead will be released if that button has a pausing point.

  • Firefox freezes when going to a site or page that requires Flash Player, such as YouTube. I have the most updated version of Flash. Is there a solution to this problem?

    I'm having trouble visiting sites or pages that require Flash Player, Firefox will just freeze when they're partially loaded and it will stay frozen until I close Firefox. This will happen with any page that uses flash player. I can disable it, but then I can't access the content which requires Flash Player, have to use a different browser and I'd rather just use Firefox.

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.
