Please please help - I can't open swf files

I downloaded Adobe Flash Player and Adobe Shockwave Player to play some swf files that I downloaded. These files still say that Windows cannot open them well and I don't know why. I tried to uninstall reinstall etc, but the computer doesn't seem to know that the Flash Player is.

Thanks to all those who will help me solve this problem!

Hello

are you clicking on the swf or html file?

If you want to run the SWF on its own then you will need the Flash Player standalone (you can get it here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html).

If you want to run in the browser, and then drag the swf file (or use the file/open command) in a browser window.

How can I configure Adobe Flash Player as default program to open SWF files?

Overview of basic
I have this work very well to my laptop at home, but I need this working for school projects.
Whenever I want to open a SWF file at home, I just double click it and open it in Adobe Flash Player (Adobe Flash Player 10.0 r22) and I have no problem!
However, when I'm at school I have to run in Internet Explorer, the file SWF, Adobe Flash Player IS installed, but the SWF files are opened directly, they are opened in Internet Explorer.
At home
If I right click on a SWF file at home and select 'Open with', and then "choose default program...". ", Adobe Flash Player is already there under the name" Adobe Flash Player 10.0 r22 ", so I can select the default value. (On my laptop at home)
At the school
In school, so go to "Open with", then "choose default program... ", Adobe Flash Player IS NOT there, only Internet Explorer and other programs in the box of other programs. (On my laptop to school)
Question
How can I assign Adobe Flash Player as default program to open SWF files (on my laptop to school)? If I select "Browse...". "and go to C:\WINDOWS\System32\Macromed\Flash there is no file with a description of" Adobe Flash Player 10.0 r22 ", is the file for the program located somewhere else, or I'm just not properly looked into the record?
I really need these files open in Adobe Flash Player directly and not in Internet Explorer (I know that you can set the view to 100% and do it properly sized)
Thanks to all who help!
-Charlie! (Yes I know, that I need not write this in a forum)

The standard Flash Player is a browser add-on and not a standalone player. So what in fact opens when you open a SWF file at home? Flash Player projector?

If so, you must also download in your school, to http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html, then make the file association.

HELP-I can't open things such as the restoration of the system or the command prompt, etc without being asked to "choose the program you want to use to open this file"

Hi Sheila,

Try this:

Before you import your files, go to file > project settings > General and change the rendering engine video software of Mercury playback engine only. Click OK, and then select Remove previews. Then import your files.

I would like to know if it works.

Thank you

Help? Adobe Acrobat Standard 11 - just bought for windows 7, now I can't open pdf files or tie?

Help!
I just bought the last Adobe Acrobat XI Standard.
I put in the serial key number but my computer tells me that calling a product is not found on my computer so I can not use the adobe product. So now I can't open any file or attach PDFs to emails without this message coming. I uninstalled the "Adobe Acrobat XI Standard twice! with no luck.
I need it sorted as soon as possible because I'm working! Any suggestions?

DotBellaParis if you are prompted for a product calling it so it would seem that you purchased an upgrade to Acrobat Standard XI. You should have the option to enter the serial number of your previous purchase of Acrobat. You can find information on how to locate your previous issues of the series at http://forums.adobe.com/message/3987968#3987968?promoid=KBHJW.

If you did not intend to buy an upgrade, then I recommend to submit a return request. You can find more information on the presentation of a return to the return, cancel, or Exchange an Adobe order - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/return-cancel-or-change-order.html. Once you have returned the upgrade you can then buy the full version which will not ask you for an eligible product or a serial number.

Help! I can't open my file in ImageReady from Adobe Bridge

I have Photoshop CS2. I recently wiped my hard drive and reinstalled the original factory software and then re-installed Photoshop CS2, and it was a little glitchy since then. For example, I organize my files in Adobe Bridge, and then when I return to them more later they are not in the order I put them in. The program updates the. BridgeSort file in the folder, so it's not the problem. When I restart the computer, if the last folder I had opened in Bridge has been set, it will always be sorted when I reopen the bridge, but if I open another folder that I've already sorted it restored as it was before I sort it.
Also, I can't open any file in Adobe ImageReady from Adobe Bridge. Before I wiped my computer, when I wanted to create a slideshow in ImageReady, I just selected the files I wanted to open then right click and choose "open in / ready Image", but now does even as an option. I already tried to uninstall photoshop and reinstall it but it does not solve the problem.

Try something like this:

1. use Windows Explorer to search for a JPEG on your computer

2 right click on this file jpeg and go to open with > choose program

3. If the box that says: always use the selected program to open this type of file

is checked, uncheck it and press the Browse button.

4. navigate to the location of the program ImageReady cs2 and double click on it, then

Press ok in the dialog box and the jpeg should open in ImageReady.

5. close ImageReady and right click on the JPEG and I hope it will be ImageReady

listed as a choice.

I hope that the cs2 bridge will also show ImageReady as choice for JPEG files.

Satellite Pro P300 - after Truesuite update I can't open protected files

Hello
Sorry for my bad English, but I came to Italy, and here we do not have any forum that can solve my problem.

I have a Toshiba laptop pro P300 with fingerprint reader. I use fingerprints to log and protect certain files, simply out of curiosity, he seemed cool...: |
The problem was born while I recently updated "truesuite access manager. Since I did the update I can not open protected files, I have not read that I have to remove the protection before the update (damn...), but these files are important to me and I have to reopen them.

To solve the problem at all first I restore the system prior to the update to have the old version and open these files again, but my fingers are deleted and I can not create new prints because the pc said "could not open the sensor. I don't know what that means.
I thought he needs some drivers, so I reinstalled truesuite Manager to access, several times, I reinstalled the BIOS, I did the scan of the drive and the diagnosis of toshiba, but the sensor still does not work.

I think that if I can record a fingerprint with the old version of the program I will be protected able to open files again (and I will no longer protect them) because only the old version of the program knows how to decrypt these files, but I do not know how to enable the fingerprint sensor. Could someone help me, please?
Thank you very much!

The update of Truesuite comes WindowsUpdate? Or did you download the update from the Web from Toshiba site?

You can use your backup password (usually its your Windows password) to access the files?

Adobe Illustrator can't open .ase file

Hello. someone help please! I downloaded a theme fron Kuler and Adobe says it can't open .ase files? someone knows why? or is there something else I need to do? Thank you

Kuler Panel is available in Illustrator, so you don't have to download an ASE file to use the colors in Illustrator. Simply preferred a Kuler theme and it would be available in Illustrator.

If you don't want to work with files of ESA, you will need to open the ASE file in the Menu library of Swatch of in the swatches Panel
