I am unable to import mp3 files of any kind in Flash CS6. Tried import to stage, import to library, Drag and Drop... no dice. Receiving a generic error message. Tried closing out and restarting,etc. - still not working.

Anyone else having this issue?

    Yep... its completely broken. Cant import any type of mp3 file into a .fla at all in Windows 7 64bit... pretty big bug.

    I've been just saving everything out as wav's and importing as a work around.


    For Flash CS6 on Win7, you need to update to QuickTime(7.7.1) and iTune(10.5.3.3) to import .mp3 files of which bitrate is larger than 192kbps..

    Hi my friend...

    1. Import the sound to library

    2. Select the layer you want to import

    3. Open properties dialog (ctrl + f3 or windows -> properties)

    4. with a frame selected in layer - see the sound dialog box showing in properties

    5. click the drag down and select the sound you have imported

    it's ok now

    6. you must select the sync as 'stream' for the sound to stop at the end of movie

    thanks

    Mahesh

    I can't import them to the stage, nor drag and drop, anymore.  But they will import to library.  But I can't get them to preview.  Sound only when I publish.

    Please follow this process before importing the MP3 files.

    Launch the app, Press "CTRL +SHIFT+ALT" immediately

    Menu will popup  "Delete Adobe profressional settings? "

    Select Yes.

    Then try to import the MP3 files.

    Please let me know if its works.

      Hi Josh,

      Thanks for the reply.

      The menu came up and I deleted settings, but still cant import .mp3's... are you able to replicate the same issue?

      I'm on a 64 Bit Windows 7 box.

      Here's a screenshot of the error:

      Did you able to  play the same mp3 in windows media player ?. Check another mp3 can import in Flash. Please share the file if you are not able to solve this issue.
