ActionScript 3.0 :: Dreaded Error #1009 On A Very Simple Flash Project
May 25, 2010
Greetings ActionScript.org community. I've been struggling for a couple days now, and I am really interested in some guidance.
Basically, I'm trying to make a 3 page flash where the "Learn More" button on each page takes you to a different landing page. Problem is that I keep getting "Error #1009".
The .fla is attached to this message as a .zip or you can see the .fla here: [URL]
I've gone through a lot of related posts here about error #1009 and I gather that I'm trying to call an object that isn't instantiated yet, but I just can't seem to fix it in my .fla. I've tried all sorts of different approaches, but obviously not the right one yet. Here is the code I'm using:
Code:
stop();
pg2_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goPage2);
pg3_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goPage3);
[Code]....

So my problem here is, I'm working on my Adobe Air project, so I decided to code some buttons to be able to navigate. The problem here is that I get a error for trying to do so. Here is my code.

I do not see what is wrong actually, I tried this on a blank non-AIR file, and it worked well.

I am trying to make a simple animation using Movie Clips and AS3.
What I have is multiple Movie Clips in the main timeline. I tried to use the following code on the last frame of each movie clip timeline to play the next one. In this case mc_1.
MovieClip(root).mc_1.gotoAndPlay();
Here is the error i get:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at akg_160x600_2_fla::text1_1/frame60()
I didn't think I need a function or declaration for this to work. What am I doing wrong. Every search I do pertains to using a button which I can see would require a function, var, and eventListener. I can't find anything for a looping animation with no buttons???

Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
This is the error I cannot seem to understand. On the stage I have a movie clip, mcTree. It's keyframe is in frame 3143. There is no tween or anything. In frame 3144, I have the following actionscript:
mcTree.gotoAndStop(2);
I publish the movie and I get to frame 3144 then BAM TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at 2file_fla::MainTimeline/frame3144()
As you can tell, I'm more than 3000 frames into my animation here and have made it this far using this method, and it has worked.

I have a loaded SWF into a simple "holder" empty movieclip I have on the root stage. Inside that SWF I have two variables that have "stage.stageHeight" and "stage.stageWidth" in them. If I leave them on the code and test the root movie I get this error: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. So basically I can't seem to get the variables to get the parent stage.

I am not an expert in flash, but i do work with AS and tweak Flash projects , though not having deep expertise in it. Currently i need to revamp a flash website done by one another guy, and the code base given to me, upon execution is throwing the following error."--- TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null objectreference.atNewSite_fla::MainTimeline/__setProp_ContactOutP1_ContactOut_Contents_ 0() at NewSite_fla::MainTimeline/frame1() --"The structure of the project is like, it has theifferent sections split into different movie clips. There is no single main timeline, but click actions on different areas of seperate movie clips will take them between oneanother.All the AS logic of event handling are written inline in FLA , no seperate Document class exists.
Preloader Movie clip is the first one getting loaded. As i understood the error is getting thrown initially itself, and it is not happening due to any Action script logic written inline, because it is throwing error even before hitting the first inline AS code.I am not able to figure Out what exactly it causing the problem, or where to resolve it. I setup the stuff online, for reference if anybody want to take a look at it, and here is the link.You need to have flash debugger turned ON in your browser, if need to see the exception getting triggered.

sometimes I get this strange error during gameplay:
Code:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
[code]...
I still don't know what causes the error. The only thing I discovered is that sometimes an object is null inside of my SoundManager. But I don't know why. I already checked all appropriate arrays if something's missing there but all seems to be ok there.

I'm having Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. I'm not exactly sure how to solve this problem myself, I've traced to see if the object var enemySpawnTimer:Timer is actually null and it isn't. So I don't understand why I'm getting this error.
Anyway here is my code, it's a class I use to spawn blocks that fall from the top of the screen to the bottom and is removed from the stage once it reaches the bottom of the screen.

I am building a site in Flash CS4 with AS3. I have one problem, and it seems to me that there are solutions everywhere for that it's just that I don't know how to solve it and implement it. I have 2 swf files. One is preloader and the other is main swf with the whole site. I use this preloader swf to avoid white screen because I have some scripts exporting to the 1st frame. In the main swf I have a single frame (index_mc) containg everything on stage. I am using Lightbox script and it is exported to the first frame. Beside that script I am using some scrollbar script. The problem is that I get #1009 error

I'm trying to add a preloader to my flash movie so the user doesn't have to wait for additional frames to load while they are navigating. When I try to shift my current frames over by 2 frames to make room for the preloader I get this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at APIVisionDigitalRecall_fla::MainTimeline/frame3()[APIVisionDigitalRecall_fla.MainTimeline::frame3:20]
at flash.display::Sprite/constructChildren()
at flash.display::Sprite()
at flash.display::MovieClip()
at navBar()
Everything works fine before I shift the frames by 2, so I don't understand why I'm getting a complier error abut an object not existing. What to do to add a pre-loader to my existing movie without moving everything over by two frames?
I was planning on putting this code on frame 1:
ActionScript Code:
var kbtotal:Number=stage.loaderInfo.bytesTotal/1024;
var kbloaded:Number=stage.loaderInfo.bytesLoaded/1024;
var percent:Number= Math.round(kbloaded/kbtotal*100)
loader.gotoAndStop(Math.floor((precent/100)*100));
loader.loadingStatus.text=Math.round(kbloaded) + " lb / " + Math.round(kbtotal) + "kb";
This code on frame 2:
ActionScript Code:
if (kbloaded == kbtotal){
gotoAndPlay("Main");
} else{
gotoAndPlay("Load");
}

gotoAndPlay function not working, I am getting this runtime error "Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference."I understand its meaning, what is the reference that is null here , even keyframe 3 exists.

Starting new thread for this topic as suggested by forum. I have a website which tweens movieclip pages (named home, bio, music, video and contact). Love the effect and trying to keep it. Main timeline contains the main buttons (home_btn, bio_btn, music btn, video_btn, contact_btn). Music page has a XML mp3 player contained in it with button control. Video page has an encoded video with no code.
I need the following:
1 - Music and video to shut off as those pages/movieclips tween off the stage. Gets annoying with them playing especially at the same time
2 - Music player to play correctly. It is not with the new code.
I have the following code. The "Tween Code" is on frame 1 of the main timeline of the movie. The "MP3 code" is on frame 1 of the music movie clip. I am getting the following ERROR message when running my movie. I ran the Debugger as I publish and it points to music.my_channel.stop(); in below code. My thought process on this was that it would reach out to the music movieclip, find my_channel and stop it.
