Flash :: Firefox - Can't Click "Allow" On Privacy Panel?
Nov 9, 2010
I've created a rather simple Flex application using Flex Builder 4, which connects to a webcam on the user's PC. To do so, Flash is presenting the user with the infamous privacy warning.
Now, the problem is that user can't click on the panel, as it seems unresponsive to any user interaction.
Some more details:
Firefox 3.6.12 on Mac/OSX, Snow Leopard.Adobe Flash Plugin 10.1.85.3 / 10.1 r85The Flex app is working fine in its own window/tab but the problem shows up as soon as the html page with the Flex app is embedded into the iframe of another page.If I artificially put an Alert box before connecting the camera, the user is able to interact with the Flex application but as soon as the Privacy panel is shown, the Flex app stops interacting.
The app works fine under Chrome and Safari but I have not tried this under Windows.I've read that there are problems with CSS positioning so I removed any CSS style impacting the Flex app.
Before I change my strategy and get rid of the iframe (which will cost me quite some effort) I'd be happy to know whether others have experienced the same problem and if there are workarounds.

I have a webapp embedding some flash content in an iframe. The flash part is requesting access to the webcam. On firefox/mac os, user's can't click the allow button. This only happens when the page embedding the swf file is loaded in the iframe, it works fine when laded separately. Has anyone else faced a similar problem? Do you know any workarounds?
EDIT: For future reference: we were positioning some stuff via JS and we had positions using "half pixels" (e.g. 20.5px). Once we fixed that everything worked fine.

I'd been following several answers to similar problems with no luck at all, so i decided to try asking by myself:I have a page with several links that have to load data via Ajax using jquery and put the response inside a div. The main "tab" is a flash wich is inside a layer.Every time a user clicks on any of those links, flash container is resized to 0px and set visibility to hidden (trying to prevent the reload behaviour if display is set to none).
All works just fine EXCEPT the first time you click on any link that hides flash layer. In that particular case (only in Firefox) it resets the flash to initial state. I'm going nuts about this..

I've recently noticed that when Flash goes into full-screen mode, triggered by a double-click, Firefox (3.0.1) takes the focus - if the user clicks anywhere on the screen outside the area of the original (non-fullscreen) Flash player area, Flash returns to non full-screen mode. Also, the cursor changes to reflect whatever is on the browser page beneath the fullscreen Flash app - i.e. it changes to a hand in areas where there is a link on the HTML page, or to a bar in areas where there is a textbox.

Adobe is, in my opinion, intentionally deceptive on a number of levels about the privacy-invading cookies that Flash stores on your machine. These are NOT the cookies that get deleted when you clear your browser cache. These cookies remain on your machine until you MANUALLY DELETE THEM. And Adobe know that most users are not technically proficient enough to even find where they exist.There is a good site that describes how to get rid of them here: [URL]

We are working on flash camera project. We want to ask user to allow or deny camera access first on page load. then after few seconds we want to start camera and take photo. If User deny camera (or flash) access, we do not want to start camera. and If user allows permission for camera (or flash) access, we want to start camera and take photo.For this, We are using "Security.showSettings(SecurityPanel.PRIVACY);". This code is user for ask permission to user about their camera access.So, it is show Privacy Pop up in flash. But, how we can have control on that pop up

trace( <b>brett</b> ); and to get that to appear in bold in the console window or the output window?

This is not an issue with action scripts it's regarding the privacy and secureness in a flash based website. WIll it cause any harm by giving someone the websites' FLA (just for checking purpose)? Can that person do any harm to the web in future? If yes, what are the possibilities? (online transactions, database info, virus, etc...)

My web-app records users via webcam and microphone. I want to use HTML/JS for the controls and content, so I created two separate Flex modules: * A "Webcam Setup" module that lets you choose your camera and mic input devices * A "record" module that lets the user record and submit the recording
When I embed either of these on the page, since they access the user's Camera/Mic object, Flash shows the Privacy dialog that says "[mysite] is requesting access to your camera and microphone. If you click Allow, you may be recorded."
The problem is, if I answer Yes in the Setup module, and later add the Record module to the page using Javascript, it again shows the Privacy dialog.
Is there a way to avoid the second privacy popup?
I would think that saying "Yes" for [mysite] would store that permission for at least that session, but apparently not.
What I've tried I tried combining them into one SWF, adding it to the page once and moving the DOM element with jQuery's append() function when needed. When I move it, however, it reloads and asks me again.

But I have a simple problem I think.I have a moving panel of images, and I want to be able to change the direction of the panel with the click of a button. Here's what I have so far:
var panelSpeed:Number = 1;
var leftDirection:int = -1;
var rightDirection:int = +1;

I am trying to get the Privacy Settings Tab to show in our flash/flex4 video chat application we are building.I have 2 systems with latest Flash installed (currently 11.1.102.62). However, the player always shows this (privacy popup question) instead of this (privacy settings tab) when loading the app.The reason i want the settings tab to show is because i need the end user to easily check the "remember" box. I have tried to call Security.showSettings(SecurityPanel.PRIVACY); before as well as after the getCamera/getMicrophone calls but all that happens is we get 2 popups instead of 1.and still no "remember" option.Actually it doesnt show the privacy tab at all!Searched tons of forums but have come up empty.I have also searched the adobe docs but all I find is a paragraph stating"if your computer or device doesn't support audio or video recording using Flash Player, you don't need to allow or deny access, and this panel doesn't appear".Which is hardly true since one of the systems we are testing with is a new Macbook Air running latest OSX.Does anyone have any insight into why this might be happening and how to display the "Privacy Settings" and not the "Privacy pop-up question"?

I'm trying to create a simple 2D sliding puzzle in AS 3.0, but I haven't gotten further than splitting up the image and placing it into a grid. My main issue is to figure out how each panel will detect if there's a free space near it when you click them.

I am working on a flash video recorder.When the video recorder applications loads , a camera permission dialog box opens asking the user to either allow or deny access to the camera or microphone.The problem is that on mac firefox the the user is not able to click on the allow or deny buttons.In fact the entire flash dialog box does not respond to any mouse clicks. When you right click on the flash area to manually open the security window it opens .But even here there is no response to mouse clicks.Using the keyboard i am able to shift focus from allow button to deny buttons or any other part of the dialog box but nothing happens on pressing the enter key.In short, the recorder application freezes at the very first step in mac firefox.

When I attempt to select an item from the right click context menu, it sems as though the mouse "jumps". If I click repeatedly enough sometimes it will trigger the selected item. It only seems to be a problem on Windows FireFox/Chrome. It works fine on Windows IE, Mac Firefox/Chrome/Safari. Any ideas?I've added a function that displays a white halo when you mouse down to show where the computer is interpreting the mouse click.

I discovered this while doing some programmatic panel resizing:Components in a spark Panel will still be visible when their location is outside the physical Panel boundaries. This does not happen with the mx Panel.unning Flex 4.1 on Windows 7I tried putting mx and spark controls in the spark Panel, and they both appear outside of the boundaries. Note this doesn't happen with the mx Panel. What am I missing to make the spark behave like the mxSample Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:WindowedApplication xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"

I want to create a panel docking to a pop up panel in my flex app, like Winamp's playlist window can dock to main window. but I didn't find any useful on docking in flex
I've traced the PopUpManager, but I didn't find any available interfaces or events about popup window's moving, I think it's design shouldn't be so bad.

Is there a way to detect when the user accepts the Privacy Pop-up?
Basically, I'm using the microphone to record a voice message. I'd like to start a countdown timer that tells the user how much time they have to record their voice.
I start the countdown timer on the same event that I call nsPublish.attachAudio(microphone), and the countdown starts immediately, even though the user sees the privacy pop-up.

I have basic movie clips, On roll over, show arrows [NEXT, PREVIOUS] on movie clip [they then show other images inside movie clips]I can show arrows on roll over.But when i roll over the arrows the main ROLLOUT function gets called, the arrows hide. I've tried several flagging methods and have resulted in using a larger invisible border around the clip, rolling over that hides them.

I was looking around and I found this website. How did they do the flash on the accordion panel? So that part of the panel jumps to the other side (without the wiggle) and then the active panel shifts over to the right? [URL].

I've noticed recently (the last week) that when I open Flash CS4, the Tools panel and the Actions/Timeline/Compiler Errors/Output panel group are not automatically open, like they always were before. Does anyone know of anything I could have changed by accident?
At the same time this started happening, I have a file that has a moving hot spot that is set with keyframes (depending where the active button is on the bitmaped screen capture behind the button). Even though the button's onRelease handlers are advancing the timeline correctly, my button is not in the right place in the runtime version. If's still fine in the development environment. It's like the layers are out of sync with each other.
