I have been coding my flash movie/website and everything was working fine until I added a preloader on frame one, moved frame "home" over one frame to frame2. PaulJamesWilliams is the name of the file that I am editing. what do I do?
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I'm receiving the following error when trying to access a property of my array. TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.The value I'm accessing works completely fine but the error above pops up when using the flash debug player only. My Firefox uses the flash debug player, Player Version: WIN 10,0,45,2 Debug Player: Yes. My IE which doesn't receive the error uses Player Version: WIN 10,0,45,2 Debug Player: No. The Player version info received by vising the flash version test page.
I'm using a custom event that gets dispatched from a class that makes a web service call.The web service call returns JSON data which I convert to an Object using JSON.decode from adobe corelib. After I have the Object, I use the below code to create an array from the Object.
Code:
//casts the right property to an array which has no problems
var resultArray:Array = e.object.data as Array;
//Accessing the value causes the debug player error
output_txt.text = (resultArray.length.toString());

I've made preloaders in the past, but now I'm getting this error, and I don't know what is exactly the problem. TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference at com.mugui::Footer().If I erase all references of the footer from my Main Class the flash works normal. So the problem comes from my footer, but why?.My main class:
Code:
public class MuguiMain extends MovieClip
{
private var contentHolder:Sprite = new Sprite;[code]..........

I am trying to make scrolling text appear on a few screens, so that when I click on a button to go to the next frame the characters of a sentence will appear one after another as if someone is talking. This works a few times however when I go back to the first frame the following error occurs and the text no longer appears?

I'm making my first flash website (or trying to anyway). I need to get it finished and live ASAP. (I've been just fumbling around since I really don't know Flash CS3 or ActionScript 3 very well.) I'm getting these TypeErrors while testing; can someone please tell me what they mean and how I can fix them? If I can avoid classes, I'd like to--I haven't the slightest idea yet how they work.

I've searched the 'net and searched these forums but can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong. I'm creating a flash based game for school that so far has ten frames on the timeline. I have buttons on frame one, frame 5, and frame 10. I have actionscript code to control those buttons on frame 1, frame 5, and frame 10 respectively. The code is worded identically on each frame with the exception that I've changed the button names and the function names that are called when the mouse button is pressed. The code works fine on frame 1 and on frame 5, but when I click the button on frame 5 that sends me to frame 10, I get this error immediately:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I am having a problem loading a swf into a movieclip inside another swf. I keep getting this error message:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at contact_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
after googling the error, I have come to suspect that I am trying to load the swf before the stage is ready for it. Although, I load another swf and it loads fine. How can I verify which part of my movie is causing the problem?

I don't know why this is not working. I have a short quiz where in step one, the user clicks a button that populates text in a dynamic textbox. Then in step two, they do the exact same thing again.I've done research that suggests I'm getting this error because something is not loaded or something is not on the stage, but all of the items are on the stage and I'm not loading anything externally. I've narrowed it down to my first set of event listeners, but they all look normal to me.Here's the code (forgive the mess, there's probably an easier way to acheive what I'm trying to do, but I'm not versed enough to do it) and the fla:
Code:
stop();
var firstak1:String = "The conference is in Detroit";
var secondak1:String = " please let me know if you have any questions.";
var secondbk1:String = " I can easily drive to it.";
var secondck1:String = " the cost could be as low as $250 if we register by tomorrow.";

I have a 5 page site made so far. On one of the pages I have a subpage and on this subpage is a video. The code I am trying to write is to stop this video playing whenever any of the other page links are clicked on the top.
The code I am using is:
Code:
home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stopVideoSound);
function stopVideoSound(event:MouseEvent):void {
videoClip.volume = 0
}
videoClip is the instance name I have given my video and home is just one of the page links. I haven't written the others in yet. When I preview this though I keep getting this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at assignmentinwork_fla::MainTimeline/stopVideoSound()
'assignmentinwork_fla' is the file name but I can't seem to work out what the rest means or how I would fix this so the video stops when teh subpage is clicked out of.

I have a feeling this is a stupid thing that I'm either overlooking or ignorant of,I have a simple Flash piece that is two scenes -- Intro and Body.Intro plays fine, but when the timeline enters the final frame of the scene it is supposed to go directly into the Body scene. Here is the AS I placed in the final frame of the Intro scene:
stop();
this.addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, EnterFrame);
