Hi,

I need to install a component to use in Flash. I followed the instructions:  
To install an extension (from inside Flash):

1. Go to HELP \> MANAGE EXTENSIONS
2. Choose FILE \> “Install Extension”
3. Install xxx.mxp

I restarted flash, but now when I open the component window the component is not there. I only see User Interface and Video. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
