    Why does flash site display incorrectly when i have Flash Professional installed?

    Jim Landers Community Member

      It appears that if I have Flash Professional installed or even Flash Professional CC, my Flash web site displays incorrectly in IE 10/9/8 and various versions of Firefox. This replicates on multiple computers, Windows 7, Windows 8 and has been an issue for 2+ years. On those same computers I can create virtual PCs, install FF and IE and view my site w/o problems and on many other computers it displays correctly. Design elements that should only be visible in the application are displayed in the browser when I have the apps installd. The first image is WIndows 7 running in virtual computer with IE9, the 2nd one is from the host computer using IE9. Any help will be appreciated.

          How are you displaying these flash files? Are you calling up an html document from a URL? Are you dragging the .swf onto the browser window? Or are you doing something else?

              I'm not seeing the problem on Mac or Windows in any browser. The only way that I know of to replicate that sort of problem is to drag an .swf directly to a browser window.

               

              Sorry I can't be more help.
