just like Urami said

this may happen when you create flash document with flash 8 but play
it with flashplayer 6 - 7
normally, the compatible player version will installed together with
the flash application and will takeover the old one.
but if you doing some thing like install flash mx(version 6) after
install flash 8 , the player will be set to the older version too.
so , Please make sure you get the latest Flash player installed on
your computer.

that's it.

Hello - This has been happening since I upgraded to Flash 8 on the Mac. When I
create a flash file and hit ctrl + enter to view it, everything is there and
works correctly. However, when I get out of Flash and just try to play the swf
file, some of the elements don't show up. Sometimes it's text, sometimes its a
logo or something. Does anyone have any idea what causes this?

Thank you

Perhaps the default player used to preview SWF is an older standalone or older
browser player. They don't support any of the new features, hence not all items
can be visible while playback.
