I'm guessing you are testing locally ? Are you a Mac or PC user? The Adobe security settings never work for me, so I usually run a bat file from the directory of my swf, containing this: ------------------ @echo off rem echo %APPDATA% rem echo %CD% echo [Enter name for security file inserted into %APPDATA%]: echo (use a single keyword, no spaces, no dots and no .cfg in it) SET /p fileName= echo Creating %APPDATA%\Macromedia\Flash Player\#Security\FlashPlayerTrust\%fileName%.cfg echo %CD%\ >> "%APPDATA%\Macromedia\Flash Player\#Security\FlashPlayerTrust\%fileName%.cfg" pause ------------------- This configures your app so it runs locally as well. Let me know if that fixes your issue! Hi Shane,

The Adobe security settings never work for me, so I usually run a bat file from the directory of my swf, containing this:

——————

@echo off
rem echo %APPDATA%
rem echo %CD%

echo [Enter name for security file inserted into %APPDATA%]:
echo (use a single keyword, no spaces, no dots and no .cfg in it)
SET /p fileName=

echo Creating %APPDATA%\Macromedia\Flash Player\#Security\FlashPlayerTrust\%fileName%.cfg
echo %CD%\ >> “%APPDATA%\Macromedia\Flash Player\#Security\FlashPlayerTrust\%fileName%.cfg”

pause

This configures your app so it runs locally as well.
Let me know if that fixes your issue!

I'm only a new to web services so i'm hoping that you'll be able to help me out. cheers.
