ActionScript 3.0 :: Error: Error #1009: Cannot Access A Property Or Method Of A Null Object Refer
May 4, 2010
I added a flv into my Scene 1 then i added a new Scene.I just wanted to after finishing the .flv flash go to next scene.but when i added a new scene,and I test my movie,the .flv didnt show and i recieved these errors
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.
stop(); button3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playClick3); function playClick3(Event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndStop(422); }
On frame 422 there is no code at the moment. I keep getting the error TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
I am trying to use the scroll pane component and I am having a few teething troubles. I have a scroll pane as a child object of a movie clip which is essentially a 'page', if I display this page it works fine and the scroll pane does too. If I then remove this page from the display list, go to another page and come back by readding it to the display list, I get the following error, even though nothing else has changed:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at fl.containers::ScrollPane/fl.containers:ScrollPane::endDrag()
The scroll pane is still visible and works correctly, but ideally I'd like to stop this error.
I got CS4 for Cristmas, and I am having trouble with my buttons. I have a button on each frame programmed to go to the next frame when I click it. All of the buttons worked fine until I put a movie clip on frame 12. Now when I click to get to frame 13, it goes back to frame 7. This is what it says in the output:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at WelcometomyChristmas_fla::MainTimeline/frame12() at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop()
I have this preloader code on frame 1 in my MAIN swf file with the content on frame 2
Actionscript Code:
stop(); //Import the required assetsimport flash.display.*;//Stop the playhead while loading occursthis.stop();//Create a listener to call the loading function as the movie loadsthis.loaderInfo.addEventListener (ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, PL_LOADING);/*This is the main function,
[code]....
Also an external swf file is loaded using the same code on frame 1 in its main timeline this works when I test local but it outputs an error....
at welcome_fla::MainTimeline/PL_LOADING() TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at welcome_fla::MainTimeline/PL_LOADING()
On line this prevents it from working at all.Basically I need each external content to have its own preloader for its content.If you go to my site you will see it works on the intital load but when you hit the home button it fails [URL]
i keep getting a error: i just dont know how to fix it please help me the error is below and the code is to

My current code... I have no idea what is going on, but I am trying to fix it... I can post the FLA if necessary, but I believe there could have been something I over looked..

Thats the error messege i get when it tries to play. What I have is an swf that loads another when its done, the new swf is blank but has a document class to an AS file.It seems the problem lies when a function is not properly being added to the stage.The function is added like this..
Code:
package{ public class QuizApp extends Sprite{ public function QuizApp(){ createButtons();
I have a movie clip that starts lets say @ frame10 and ends @ frame20 I have a button to toggle the visibility of that movie clip on/off even if the movie clip is not currently displayed on the stage. The reason I am getting Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference is because my movie clip (as I read from previous posts) has not been instantiated yet.
I have over 50 movie clips like this one (to act as labels, as i scroll through the timeline the labels appear and disappear to follow an anatomical structure on series of images). Is there an easy way to instantiate all of those movie clips although they start and end at different points on the timeline? I got a headache from finding a solution for this.
I keep getting an error when I try to load a custom Class into a simple Main.as class.
Main Class:
Code: package biz.dondi {[code]...
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at biz.dondi.assets::MainBackground/backgroundImage() at biz.dondi.assets::MainBackground() at biz.dondi::Main()
I honestly don't know what the problem is however, I think it has something to do with the preloader but I am not sure. I have posted the error and the codes used just for the home page but it happens on everyone.
Code: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at home_fla::MainTimeline/loadProgress()[home_fla.MainTimeline::frame1:8]
This seems weird. My code worked in the original FLA (using AS3) but when I 'Save As' as a new doc, It gives me a compiling error below:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at flash_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
Does it have to do with path to the Library? Is there a way to reset this within Flash or do I have to copy and paste the code to a totally new AS3 file?
I am creating a little mini site for the web. The buttons within the movie work fine but when I create a button from a graphic, and try to tell this to link to an external website and open in a new window I am getting : Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference, in the Output and when I click on the button nothing happens. I have found lots on the web about this error but nothing that i can understand enough to fix the problem. I just want to make a button from a graphic and link to somewhere - the code I am using for the buttons is:
I ve got a very simple combobox, 3 data items and an event handler. The catch is that the combobox is in an external swf loaded into the main swf through the loader class (worked fine in CS3 & CS4). Heres the only AS3 code for the box:
[code]...
The symptoms are as follows: When used in an external swf the combobox does not show index 0 (it blank) and when clicked throws the following error: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.[code]....
When the external swf is run independently the box mostly functions, it does not throw an error and properly calls the event listener, however, it does not show the default selected index and when the combobox is changed it does not keep the current selection visible.This worked perfectly in CS4 & CS3, theres really nothing complicated about it. I have entirely deleted the old CS components and replaced them with brand new CS5 components,
i'm trying to get rid of some timers at the end of a game but I keep getting an error:Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.for the lines where I try to make the timer stop.Here's the code at the bottom of the main class where I'm having the trouble:
Although my movie works perfectly, why am I getting the following message ? TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I'm trying to import an external SWF with a scrollbar, calling out to an external .AS, into my main SWF. Someone told me, it's an issue that my scrollbar isn't instantiated yet, but stopped short of helping me how to fix the problem.
Here's the error below: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at Scrollbar/init()
I've a simple application with one movie loading another SWF in the same domain. I can access vars and functions in the loaded SWF but can't listen events from a button; receiving the run-time error: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference
I have TextField instance called inputWord which contains no text on the first frame. On the same frame, on the actions layer, any time when I refer to inputWord in any way, there is an error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at DC/frame1()[DC::frame1:19] //DC is the name of document class that I created.at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop() at DC()[C:Users ikkkaDesktopflashDC.as:25]
19 is the number of line where my code that involves inputWord is located. It works, I mean I write
inputWord.text = "smth"
it text becomes "smth" but there is the same error. Why?
I am wondering to use why I get Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference by using removeChild() function in my as3 code which is as following:
i have duplicated an object to use it in another frame (the object uses Greensock to scroll the X axis and i used a function (onMove(evt:MouseEvent)) but when i move my mouse this error comes up in the output tab TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at Main_fla::mainContianer_1/onMove() and when i press one of the buttons to enter the new object this error comes up TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I've been stuck with such an error for 2 days now, and however I search on solving this from the number of previous questions asked about this error, I still can't seem to get it to work, mainly because I don't understand it at all.Every time I enter the door with a hittest to the next scene, the error goes: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at gallerycopy_fla::MainTimeline/collision()The code's pretty long so I'm just gonna put the FLA (CS5) file
I've been given what is a mess of timelined and AS files actionscript and have managed to solve my way through most of it after much hrs. This has me stumped though, i'm still new at AS3. When clicking on a button that is to load an external swf i get the following errors:
