@lostinflash Sorry for getting back so late. Normally FlashEff should install without any problems when installing from Adobe Extension Manager CS3, CS4, CS5 or CS5.5. Or you could try to install the component directly from Adobe Flash Professional. Just open Flash and from the Help -> Manage Extensions. This would open Extension Manager directly from Flash so you can install it from there.

If you still don’t manage to install it you should try writing to the support team and try sending some screen shots too. They’ll surely help you out.
Good luck.

Hi..I’ve spent 3 days now trying to install FlashEff. I downloaded the latest version of Flash(11) and the extension manager is version 5.5. I’m getting the dialog box saying I need “flash version 9 or greater” every time. I can’t remember the last time I paid $99 to get this frustrated. Any suggestions???

@redd

Usually this problem shows up when you are trying to install the component with an older version of the extension manager. At this point, it doesn’t matter which Flash Player version do you have installed but it matters which Extension Manager version you have (and Flash Professional of course).

To install FlashEff 2 you need to have at least Adobe Flash Professional CS3 installed with Extension Manager 1.8. Please note that some FlashEff2 templates work only on Flash Player 10 so for them you’ll need at least Adobe Flash CS4 and Extension Manager 2.

If you still have this problem, try to open a ticket and my colleagues will certainly help you out.

What about vista ? If you refer to installing Flash components, it works exactly the same way: use Adobe Extension Manager.

If you are talking about the FlashEff installation problem, it should be solved the same way as on Windows XP but using the Vista specific paths (I’m on a Mac so right now I don’t know the installation paths for Vista).

@touf

Hey, I’m happy you managed to solve the problem. Actually that is the way to solve it. On JumpeyeComponents.com knowledge base we have an article that explains the issue and how to solve it – copy the files from the English config folder to the French one: http://www.jumpeyecomponents.com/knowledgebase/%2A-Flash-%7E-general-use-problems/After-installation-components-do-not-show-up-in-Components-panel~1051/.

Another solution would be to start the Extension Manager directly from Flash (Help > Manage extensions) and install the components like that. One of our clients suggested that but at work all our software is in English so we couldn’t really test it. But it could still work.
