Professional :: Error #1009 - Preload The Entire Animation
Jan 28, 2010
I have been having this Error #1009 issue repeatedly. My understanding of the error that I am getting is that I am trying to call something that does not yet exist. My latest 1009 Error:
[Code]...
My question is this: Is there a way to preload the entire animation so that I can avoid this issue (assuming I am understanding my issue correctly)? I know you can do a preloader, but my understanding is that those are for large images or movie clips. I don't have that. just one image that loads and stays up for the entire video.

So I have a movie containing some content that I would like to pre-load. I made the pre-loader and it works fine but it could be more friendly for the user. Because the movie is quite long in duration, I think its good enough if I only load say the first 35% of the movie and then let the remaining 65% download while the user is watching the first 35%. Is there a way that I can modify my pre-load script to do this to say something like: 'load content for frames 10 to 200, play from 10'.

I have problem with error 1009. I have put action on first frame for my firs animation and now I want on new layer to put some new tween animations from keyframe 50 to keyframe 150. I want to put animation without action script. What am I doing wrong? What I need to do?
My action script on first frame and this is working:
Code: Select allimport fl.transitions.easing.*;
import fl.transitions.Tween;

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???

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.

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.

I'm having a huge problem with my Flash file; here is what I'm trying to do and whats happening:
I have a scene where with a movie clip that is controlled by the keyboard, when it hit a certain point of the stage it opens a new scene where a certain animation should happen.
The problem is every time the animation hits that certain point the code I was using continues running and flash shows me an error message.
Error message:
How can I make this code work only on the scene its placed so I won't get this ERROR?
Here is the code I'm using:

I've been scavenging the web for examples of preloaders. I can find lots of loaders (bulkloader etc) which you can use for multiple files, but I'm wondering if anyone knows a way to preload the contents of an entire folder? (ie all of the images in an entire folder - without having to name each image individually?). The reason I ask is that the content of this image folder will change over time (and not by myself), so I need a preloader that is versatile in this way...

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 set it up to have 4 scenes and in each scene I use, I have a scrollbar from the components menu attached to some dynamic text. Now, I had this problem before, but then I apparently fixed it when I deleted all the text and scrollbars and then remade them. Now, I'm on a different computer and suddenly this is a problem again. Whenever I test the .swf file I get this Output Error:TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at NorthernStar_fla::MainTimeline/__setProp___id31__Music_Layer16_1() at NorthernStar_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()Now, "Music" is the scene and "layer 16" is where I have my scrollbar and dynamic text. I know it has something to do with either the scrollbar or text as the error disappears when they do.

I am unable to trouble shoot an Error 1009 message. Simply enough, I am using the UILoader with AS3 to load a .swf file into the main timeline with // loadWindow.source = "projects.swf"; // I get the 1009 Error. When I remove any action script (just a // stop(); // ) function from the .swf file I am trying to load, I do not get the error message.

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:
vim_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, vim);function vim(event:MouseEvent){navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.vimeo.com/"));}
I have this code attached to a key frame .....what does this error mean and why can't I do this seemingly simple thing?

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,

Here's the code I'm using:
import flash.events.ProgressEvent;function update(e:ProgressEvent):void{var percent:Number = Math.floor( (e.bytesLoaded*100)/e.bytesTotal );if(preloaderMC is MovieClip){preloaderMC.gotoAndStop(percent);preload_txt.text = String(percent) + "%";}if(percent == 100){play();}}loaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, update);// Extra test for IEvar percent:Number = Math.floor( (this.loaderInfo.bytesLoaded*100)/this.loaderInfo.bytesTotal );if(percent == 100){nextFrame();}stop();
But here is the error message I'm receiving:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at 2ndtest_fla::MainTimeline/frame2()[2ndtest_fla.MainTimeline::frame2:3 9] at flash.display::Sprite/constructChildren() at flash.display::Sprite() at flash.display::MovieClip() at 2ndtest_fla::mc_home_170()
The thing is...I've used the same exact process (new scene, preloader being above main scene, etc.) on another animation and it has worked perfectly. I don't know why it's not working this time. I used the exact same setup. Nor do I know why it's saying the problem is in Frame 2 when I only have my text and actions in Frame 1. It changes to Frame 3 when I move things over and so on and so forth.

I have two Flash projects, an Intro (1 scene) and a Portfolio (5 scenes).I copied all layers from the Intro and created a new scene in the Portfolio file,and pasted the layers. All of my buttons work except for the button that brings me from the end of the Intro, into Portfolio.weirdly enough, this the same button that I use throughout the portfolio to bring me to the "Home" scene.When I remove this button, the error message goes away. Below is the action, and below the action is the error message.
BtnHome_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick18);function onClick18 (event:MouseEvent)
