Flash CS6 won't display any AS3 projects while debugging anymore. When compiling for debugging it turns up white in the default "debug window" inside of Flash. If I right-click in the debugger window it says "Movie not loaded". No compiler errors are shown. The resulting swf file only runs if opened with the Flash Player from Finder.
This applies for all projects that I know have been working fine up until now. I've also tested to create a new, blank FLA on which I only draw a rectangle with the same result.
If, however, I select a Flash Player version prior to 10 (falling back to AS2) as the target for the test file containing only a rectangle, it does compile and show up fine.
I've uninstalled Flash and Flash Builder (and deleting any trace of the applications in the Library folders) and then reinstalled it multiple times without any result. I've also tried to uninstall Flash Player and Flash Player Debugger to no avail. For this I'm following the advice on Adobe's site and are using their Flash Player uninstaller applications, but it doesn't seem to uninstall all instances of the Players...
I believe the problem lies in the version of Flash Player Debugger that Flash uses internally to display the swf when debugging and it seems to somehow persist between re-installations. Is there a sure-shot way to reset this entirely?
Has anybody encountered this problem before?
I finally found the problem myself. It seems like the Chrome extension called FlashFirebug randomly causes these issues. When I deactivated the extension Flash started working properly again.

I know virtually nothing about Flash so I'm kind of casting about in the dark.
I have the misfortune of being a BT customer, and whilst I have reasonable bandwidth (can view streaming high res video fine) I always have problems listening to radio programmes from the BBC. I think it could be buffering due to traffic shaping, or it could be the Flash applet used to play the content, or something else.
Is it possible to bring up some kind of debugging console, or view some kind of error log to see if there is some diagnostic information that could be useful in finding the problem?
Chrome/Firefox/Safari using Adobe Flash player 10.2.159 on Mac OS X 10.6
EDIT: In the debug Flash player the 'debug' option is greyed out, suggesting that the swf was compiled without debug symbols. This was created by a third party (BBC) not me.
You could install the debug Flash Player, so you should see if an error occurs (a popup will appear on the screen) during the streaming.flash player debugger download
You should also disable flash player plugin and turn on debugger. If you're using Chrome type chrome://plugins the disable flash player and enable Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in.
I am facing an interface freeze issue with Flash Projector running a flex state based application. A Flash Projector exe was generated from a standalone flash player ver 10.2. The target machine on which the problem occuresd has 10.3.
Basically "screen freeze" means that the user interface is running as usual on Flash Player, but it's not responding to any user input (like button presses). But if we alt-tab to another application, the state changes in the Flash player. There is display with buttons on the screen, but touching the buttons or doing anything else - it did not respond. Rebooting the computer fixes the problem.
Can you suggest why this is happening? Is there any known bug in Flash Player.
The problem is this is being hard to reproduce on the developer workstation as it doesn't happen always. But it happens quite often on the target machine running an Intel Atom N270. What debugging steps can you suggest?

Have you tried publishing the projector in 10.1 or a version of Flash newer than 10.2? If you are able to publish it as a SWF first, you can use the stand-alone projector exe (downloadable here) to load and create a projector from it.
According to this Adobe bug issue (registration required), version 10.1 was supposed to have resolved this, but it sounds like it may have reappeared in 10.2.
Im using flex 4
While running a application i got this error
Flash Builder cannot locate the required version of Adobe Flash
Player. You might need to install the Flash Player or reinstall Flash
Builder.
Which version flash player required for flex 4.0?
Problem solved...I have clicked Link 'flash player downloads' on the error message then downloaded and installed Flash Player 10.3
It works for me.
Have a look at this thread at Adobe Forums - http://forums.adobe.com/thread/606832
The above thread is about the exact error message.
In all there are following things suggested in the thread.
1.
Associate the Flash Debug player as the standalone player with SWF
files.
2.
To use HTML wrapper, just right click on your project and select
'properties'. Select 'Actionscript Compiler' on the left column, and
in the resulting properties pane on the right, check the option for
'Generate HTML Wrapper File'. That should force FB to launch the web
browser for debug. This will require the ActiveX or Mozilla flash
debug player, depending on which browser you're using for debugging.
3.
I did a search in the registry and found two instances where Flex was referrenced rather that Flash builder changing this to flash builder seemed to eliminate the problem.
I'm having troubles testing a StageVideo file locally. The HTML file that contains the swf loads perfectly in Chrome & FireFox, but when I go to open it in Internet Explorer 9 nothing happens (it just shows a white screen).
I've added the permissions for the location to the 'Global Security Settings' tab of the Flash settings manager (on the Macromedia website). I've also checked in the IE9 settings to make sure that it allows GPU rendering.
Has anyone encountered anything similar or have any suggestions as to why it might be blocked in IE9?
Thanks in advance.
My gut feeling is that you don't have the latest Flash Player for IE, but do have it for Chrome/FF since they're 2 different versions. The swf probably doesn't even load up because of the Flash Player requirement.
Problem
Qt Designer is locking up when selecting a image from Resource, stops responding, just
makes Windows bing sound.
Does anyone know what might be causing this problem with Qt Designer, or a decent work-around?
I've only tried Label.pixmap and PushButton.icon so far.
Every time I select this option the entire Designer locks up. It seems like it's trying to display a modal selection dialog box, but I can't see it anywhere.
"Choose File..." option works fine but isn't a convenient option.
I have had Designer working properly in the past.
My project was paused for a couple of months, during this time I lost my Qt build due a complete HDD failure, and have restored from a zip-backup I'd made. I can still build against Qt libs.
Since then hasn't worked.
I also built for Linux and the same .ui files can be editing properly with Ubuntu 10.10.
Environment
Qt v4.7.1
VS2008 SP1, I built my own build of Qt
VS addin (same symptoms for v1.1.7 and v1.1.9)
Win7-x64 Pro
Tried (without success):
rebuilding Qt from source
manually editing .ui file as suggested here: http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/forum/…crashes-Creator
running Designer from installed folder
watched designer.exe in procmon (seems to be doing a lot registry lookups for HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces, but nothing that looks significant)
This is really hurting me, help very much appreciated.
The 'lockup' was caused by Designer opening a modal resource dialog. However, since last using Designer, I had moved my second screen to the other side of my primary screen, the modal dialog was open in the old screen (no longer connected) so I couldn't see it.
Resolution: Windows-key + Left-key moved the missing dialog back onto a connected screen.
