Is there any way to create time-sensitive deactivation of an .exe for Captivate 4?

Hey there,
  I've long-distance customers that want to preview the eLearning content before they accept anything; however, the company doesn't want any these files floating around.  I'm looking to restrict access to the file after a certain amount of time, or disappear the file entirely.  I'm guessing Captivate 4 doesn't have this feature, but any suggestions for freeware or a cheap alternative?  If not, is there an easy work-around so that customers can preview content before accepting?
Thanks,
Daniel

Hi Daniel
Captivate 4 does offer the ability to configure an expiration after a certain date. However, it's easily defeated by simply adjusting the date on the PC.
I suppose you might find a widget that would work. You might try Michael Lund's site: http://www.cpguru.com
Perhaps Michael can create a special widget for you!
Cheers... Rick

  • Is there any way to create a time machine backup to an external hard drive with content already on it?  I have a hard drive that i have used for pictures but when i try to run a backup it says i need to start from a blank drive. Can i get around it?

    Is there any way to create a time machine backup to an external hard drive with content already on it?  I have a hard drive that i have used for pictures but when i try to run a backup it says i need to start from a blank drive. Can i get around it?

    It would be much better if you had separate drives for the pictures and Time Machine backups.....but, if you want to use the same drive for both purposes, temporarily move the folder with the pictures to another location for safe storage.
    Run the Time Machine backup on the hard drive and verify that everything is working correctly. Time Machine will format the disk for you in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as part of the backup process.
    Then move the folder with the pictures back to the hard drive with the Time Machine backups.
    When you have tested to make sure that everything is working again, then and only then should you delete the folder with pictures from the temporary storage area.
    Again....it would be much better to keep Time Machine backups on a drive just for that purpose, and other data on another drive for that purpose. This is clearly one of those times when the fact that you can do something does not mean to imply that you should do it.

  • Is there any way to create a VMvmare server cluster?

    Hi,
    I have two machines which don't support install ESXi, these machines are running centos 5 with no X and I installed vmware server 2.0.
    My question is, is there any way to create a vmware server cluster like is possible create in ESX?
    I know in ESX once you create a cluster, the resources are increased since resources are added. Is there any way to do same thing with vmware server 2.0?
    Also is there any other option for my machines, I don't want to install X since the machines don't have much resource.
    Thanks in advance.

    Welcome to the COmmunit - With VMware server each environment functions independently and there is no way to pool resources as you can with a DRS cluster - and remembering even in a DRS cluster the VMs swill only run on a single host at a time as they would in VMware Server machines/
    Also just because it is not suppported does not mean you will not be able to create a VM with an unsupported OS -

  • Is there any way to create an installer for Mac OS and Linux OS once a stand alone application is created?

    Is there any way to create an installer for Mac OS and Linux OS once a stand alone application is created?  I have created an executable application that I want to distribute to Mac and Linux users (different applications were created in the respective OS).  I was wondering if there is any way to create an installer?  I think there probably isn't...  If the user were to simply download the Labview Run-time Engine from ni.com would they be able to run the application or is it more complicated than that?
    Thanks so much for your time.

    I think Shane tried to say, that it is on the Mac OS X installation DVD, NOT the LabVIEW for Mac OS X installation medium. And that could very well have changed in recent Mac OS X versions as well. They used to have Xcode on it too, but that seems gone as well.

  • Is there any way to create a reminder for "today"?

    Is there any way to create a reminder for "today" in the new Reminders app? I used to be able to pull up the "today" list and add things that would go to my default list but automatically show up for today but now it looks as though that option is gone.  Additionally, any way to get dates/times to show up with reminders in the Notification Center?

    Hey chewie314,
    Thanks for the question. From the information you provided, it sounds like you might be looking for the "Scheduled" view. This view will show all of your reminders that are scheduled in a list. To access the schedule view, click the icon:

  • Is there any way to create a file compatible with Premiere Pro

    Is there any way to create a file in Premiere elements that is compatible with Premiere Pro and that can be used in Premiere Pro

    Consternation
    The important information that I do not see mentioned nor offered by you.
    1.What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system it is running? What version of Premiere Pro do you want to use?
    The Premiere Pro Import Supported Formats seem to indicate that it will accept the Premiere Elements project.prel (project file) on Windows Only.
    Adobe Premiere Pro Help | Supported file formats
    This may or may not be possible depending on damaged projects or outdated elements.
    2. If you want to export your Premiere Elements Timeline to a file saved to the computer hard drive and subsequently import that into your Premiere Pro version, that "should" work. You would go to the Premiere Elements Publish+Share/Computer/ and make a selection based on what the Premiere Pro Import Supported file formats are and what you need. I can help you with that. But, details first.
    But, just a "beware"...when you get to Premiere Elements 11 or 12 (if that is the version involved) Publish+Share/Computer/ there are several categories, but all you see is Adobe Flash Video, MPEG, and AVCHD. The rest of the list that includes AVI and QuickTime which both need to be scrolled to all of the time to see them, not just sometimes, with the thin scroll bar to the right of the list of choices. You can export files
    with AVI file extension, under Publish+Share/Computer/AVI
    with MOV file extension, under Publish + Share/Computer/QuickTime
    And, if you do not have QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements, you are not going to have presets for the QuickTime export.
    Remember, there is more to an export than just its file extension. Know your other export properties as well.
    In many cases, you can customize the export settings to suit your requirements.
    Problems will exist if you are trying to go from Premiere Elements Windows to Premiere Pro Mac or vice versa.
    I would be glad for the opportunity to help you with this issue, but details are needed.
    Looking forward to your follow up.
    Thanks.

  • Is there any way to force time machine to keep retrying after disk i/o error?

    a little background to my problem:
    i've had a hard drive problem previously, and i managed get all the data off of my mac by trying and retrying to access the same files and also from my working time machine backup. after zeroing out and reformatting my drive and doing a clean install of Mavericks i had everything back up running no problems.
    recently, my macbook pro would be stuck and slow in recently imported iphoto pics so i figured my hard drive is really failing this time around
    i try to get a time machine backup to save what i can, but after a couple of tries time machine would just stop backing up and in console i would see a disk i/o error.
    is there any way to force time machine to keep trying to backup through the disk i/o error so i can save what i can before getting a new drive?
    edit: a little more info, i know i have a harddrive error from looking at the console, but when i do a verify disk in disk utility it comes up clean and even after doing a disk repair it comes up clean i still see disk i/o errors in the console.

    See:
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
    Thee can also be a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
    Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.sqlite, extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry.<br />
    New files will be created when required.
    See "Corrupt extension files":
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
    If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar (or click the "Find Updates" button in older Firefox versions) to do a compatibility check or see if there is an update.

  • Is there any way to create admin role only for one resource.

    Hi all,
    I am trying to create an admin role with 'update user' capability. But I want to restrict the user(with the admin role) to be able to update a user's attribute only for one resource, The user(with the admin role) should not be able to update the attributes of the other resources which a user have.
    Is there any way to create admin role only for one resource?
    I customized the tabbed user form to show only one resource attribute (deleting the missing fields and adding my tab for the resource) and then assigned this new User Form to the user(with the admin role) in security tab.
    It works fine. But the problem is that if any user(with the admin role) is also admin of some other resource then he/she will not be able to view the other resource attributes.
    Please suggest,
    thanks

    The loop function always repeats the same region so of course the fade is also copied. So option+drag the original region to make a (non clone) copy, fade the first region and loop the second one (which you just copied).

  • Is there any way to create a wifi hotspot for my macbook using my IPad?, Is there any way to create a wifi hotspot for my macbook using my IPad?

    I am going to a lake cabin in Northern Minnesota for a week and need to get wifi for my Mac.  Is there any way to create a wifi hotspot using my Ipad so that I have internet service for my laptop?

    No, iPad can become a hot spot, but if you have an iPhone, it can tether if you have a data plan that incudes the tethering option.  With AT&T for example, you can add tethering for $20 month or for $45/month, you receive tethering and 4GB of data per month.  If you have the unlimited data plan from AT&T you'll unfortunately have to give it up if you want to tether.  You can also go to almost any carrier and purchase a MiFi unit which may work for you.  Whether iw will work in Northern Minnesota is something only your carrier could answer.

  • Is there any way to create a system-wide variable?

    Hello IDM gurus.
    Is there any way to create rarely changing system wide variables that can be loaded at system startup that will be available to all users? For example, at IDM system startup, the variables would be read from configuration or generic objects and live in memory for ALL users as opposed to each workflow/user having to read the same variables when the workflow is run.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    That may very well be the answer I'm looking for. Is there a way for that to be available within the entire application instead of having to read it in each workflow?

  • Is there any way to create fields reports users can enter data into?

    I am using Crystal XI to develop reports for my company and have not received any formal training on it.  I'm learning it fairly well through the help files. 
    One of the reports I need to create summarizes our scrap, rework, and additional incurred expenses for our monthly quality reports.  Most of the information is stored in the main program used by all employees, a very small amount of it is not.  I have created sub-reports for each of the different types of costs that are tracked in the system.
    Is there any way to create an area on the report that our QA people can use to enter the items not tracked in the main system?  I am imagining that it would be through another sub-report of some kind, but do not know how to create the fields needed. 
    Thank you very much for any assistance you can provide, even if it is to tell me "You can't do that, ma'am..."  At least then I would know and wouldn't beat my head against the desk trying to figure out how to do it.

    Is defining parameter prompts in the Crystal Report and displaying it in the report a possible workaround? 
    If you define parameter prompts, then Crystal will query the user before running the report - so this would be problematic if the user needs to reference data in the report to enter appropriate values (one possibility then is to use interactive parameters feature available in CR 2008).
