Preview in Web Browser stopped working

Hello -
I used to be able to preview my project in Web Browser but today for some reason after I click it, the window opens and it looks like it is generating but when it finishes the browser window does not open.  I can preview Project, Preview from this Slide and Preview next 5 slides but not from Web Browser anymore.  I am using CP 4 and I recently updated with the new patch.
I have completely closed CP and rebooted but still not able to Preview in Web Browser. Is there something I can do to get this to work again?

Hi there
You might want to try clobbering the Captivate settings file. For Captivate 3 on a Windows XP PC you would look in the following location:
X:\Documents and Settings\XX\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe Captivate
X = Drive letter
XX = Logged in user name
In this location (Which you may need to coax Windows into allowing you to see) you should find a file named captivate_v30.dat. Just Close Captivate and delete this file. Then restart Captivate. Captivate should bake you up a fresh one on the spot. And it may correct the issue.
To my knowledge this is the closest you can get to a fresh install without actually reinstalling.
It would really be way cool if we had a secret key combination that could be issued while Captivate was in the process of starting up that would accomplish this. Either that, or an option we could choose in the application itself. If you feel as I do, please consider requesting it via the Wish Form!
Cheers... Rick

  • Preview in web browser not working Captivate 7

    Hello,
    I've tried nearly everything suggested in previous posts.  This is the message I get when trying to preview is web browser.  Can anyone help?

    Hi rod,
    Im gonna have to be honest here and say im not 100% sure what you mean? Internal Web server? There are 2 more machines that have captivate on them and they preview the content fine making me think its this machine that has a setting or somethign a miss.
    Firefox works fine when browsing the web just not seemingly to preview the content of my captivate projects.

  • "Preview Page in Browser" stopped working...

    Hi guys,
    First off, looking forward to seeing what's unveiled at Create Now Live on December, 11th!
    Anyway, here's the Muse bug that just cropped up yesterday as I was working on a niche one-pager site: when I tried "Preview Page in Browser," nothing happened.
    Usually when I'm working in Muse, I already have Firefox open on my screen, and when I hit "Preview Page in Browser," it'll open a new tab with the preview. This time, nada, no new tab, no preview.
    Have no idea if my system settings or anything else has changed since the last time I designed a mini-site in Muse, a few weeks ago, when "Preview in Browser" was working fine. I'm on an (aging) PC laptop, running Windows XP.
    Any ideas what's going on? Thanks again!

    Hello,
    Could you please check if the issue is specific to one website on your computer.
    You can try creating a new test website and check if you are able to preview it in a browser or not.
    If it does not work, please try deleting the AdobeMuse folder from the location :
    Windows 7: C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Roaming\
    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\your_user_name\Application Data
    Mac: /Users/your_user_name/Library/Preferences/
    After that please relaunch Adobe Muse and check if you get the preview in Browser feature to work or not.
    Hope this helps.

  • Cover Browser stopped working

    After using iTunes almost without a hitch since the iTunes 7 upgrade came out, my cover browser stopped working and other odd behaviors have cropped up.
    For instance, when I try to shift from list view to browser view or grouped view, the iTunes window becomes corrupted, almost as if it were trying to display two windows at once, sort of superimposed. And the Cover Browser view doesn't work at all.
    If I minimize and then enlarge the window though (the only way to get it to un-freeze), I get a blank white box where the cover browser should be.
    I have reinstalled several times, being very careful to remove all reciepts and preferences, and I logged in under a 'test' user and iTunes works fine there, but not under my own (administrator) user. Also, I can't for the life of me think of anything I've done to change my computer to make this happen. Any ideas out there? Thanks, your help will be much appreciated!

  • Hello  My system version 10.5.8  I have installed Safari update - 5.0.6 and the browser stopped working. At openingit shows the following icon:   "Safari has suddenly finished working. Possible problem is in the action of the plugin "TastyAppsAVPlugin".

    Hello
    My system version 10.5.8
    I have installed Safari update - 5.0.6 and the browser stopped working. At openingit shows the following icon:
    "Safari has suddenly finished working. Possible problem is in the action of the plugin "TastyAppsAVPlugin".
    After deleting all plugins from the folder "Internet Plugin", Safari worked again no problem, BUT all sites with flash content (e.g.YouTube) did not work.
    I then tried the following experimental steps:
    a) Moved all plugins from the folder "Internet Plugin" into a temporary folder.
    b) Downloaded and istalled Adobe Flash Player version 10.3.181.34
    c) Started Safari and it did not work ( same message"TastyAppsAVPlugin")
    d) Deleted Adobe Flash Player from the folder "Internet Plugin". Safari worked.
    e) Moved back all plugins, except Adobe Flash Player, from the temporary folder to "Internet Plugin" folder. Safari works... But Flash won't work!!! Before update to Safari 5.0.6 , ev erything worked perfectly well.
    Guys, please solve the problem

    I do not know which of the many TastyApps haxies you have.  Perhaps it would be better to contact them directly, once you know which of their products you have.

    I've gone into internet options and ensure that no "proxy' boxes are checked.  
    I've uninstalled the network card drives and restarted the machine. 
    I've ran Malwarebytes (no infections), ccleaner to check for registry problems.  Nothing there. 
    I've disabled the power saving options and uncheck "let windows turn this device off"
    I've also ran Norton and Mcgafee uninstallers just be sure there aren't any residue from those installed.

  • When I type a link to a page in my root directory in code view and I click on the link in live view it does not go to that page.  But if I preview in a browser it works fine.

    When I type a link to a page in my root directory in code view and I click on the link in live view it does nothing.  When I then go to preview in a browser it works fine.  Can anybody help?

    I am not sure however I suspect live view is for viewing the page you are working on. You would have to open the other page to see it in live view. The browser on the other hand is doing what it is designed to do. I jump back and forth all the time from live view to the browsers I have installed.

  • Firefox (Mozilla) browser stop working. I cannot download new version (Mozilla 16). I run the application. It tellsme the computer needs to shut down, It shuts

    My FireFox Browser stop working. I deleted old applications and tried unsuccesfully to open new versin (mozilla 16). I safe the application to desktop, run it, it tellsme the computer will turn off, it does, when the computer goes back on Mozilla is NO longer there. Then the cycle continues everytime I tried to download new application.

    Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
    Some security software has virtualization features that may cause problems by protecting files in the Firefox program folder.
    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
    *C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installation_directory
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 16.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

  • Web cam stopped working with Windows 7 (but works fine with Ubuntu Live CD).

    Since two days my web cam stopped working. I am using Windows 7 64 bit and I have a Toshiba L505d S5992. It does not show in Device Manager and Windows Update doesn't recognize it, manually I can not install it, so my best guess it was broken.
    But then I tried the LiveDVD of Ubuntu 10.10 (64 bit) and it recognized immediately my web cam and the blue light came on. I have no clue what happened with Windows 7 but it's getting very frustrating.
    Any help would be very welcome at this point.

    Download the webcam application for your unit from this website.
    Uninstall it on the programs and features then installed the downloaded webcam application.
    Hope this will help you solve the issue.

  • After update to 11.2.202.228 mz USB 1.1 web cam stop working

    Hi,
    I have a camera from MediaTech company, it is written on it MT400 and serial number 2604050599. Before latest update it works, after install newest version of Flash Player it stop working. I tested it on http://testmycam.com as one of Adobe employee advices on forum but I have only black rectangle. On top left corner of this rectangle it is written Camera: USB PC Camera (SN9C 102) , FPS 10. I disabled Hardware acceleration but problem remains. 
    As I remember this camera is USB 1.1. Does new Flash Version support USB 1.1?
    I have checked on Device Manager on my Windows XP Home Edition 2002 Version with SP3 device driver version it is written:
    Manufacturer : Sonix
    Driver date: 2004-04-02 (I can't find newer drivers on web )
    Driver version: 4.6.6.1
    Is it bug or Flash Player stops supporting such devices?
    Regards

    I pressed Allow, before pressing Allow background was grey, after Allow
    it gets black. I see the name of this camera on list. I also try another
    camera from Logitech (I can't remember what name was it, but one of the
    newest) and everything works which suggest it is strictly related with
    this specific camera which I'm using.

  • Dreamweaver 'Preview In Browser' Stops Working

    This is DW CS6 on Windows 7.
    I have several browsers set up for preview. I use the option "Preview using temporary file".
    For no reason that I can figure out the preview will stop working. i.e. I hit F12 and nothing at all happens. My impression is that it will be trigered by the content of certain pages - jQuery served by CDN? or something like that? Once it starts NO pages work. If i restart Dreamweaver some pages will be OK, but then the problem will re-appear.

    Thanks. I tried trashing the cache and even deleting the entire configuration folder. No joy.
    But now I think I have the solution after a lot of time debugging (thanks Adobe).
    1) The problem is caused by a specific HTML file. (Though I have had different ones cause this in the past months. Presumably they have something in common).
    2) If I start DW, preview is fine. Once I try the problem file however, NO files can be previewed until I restart DW
    3) With the problem file, no 'tmp' file gets created
    4) I have CSE HTML validator. If I open the problem file in that, I can preview the page in my browser. So it's not as if the page kills the browser.
    So what is it in the problem file that causes the problem?
    Well the file is a Wordpress file with a "Thesis" theme, and one of the external CSS files has a long comment:
    File:            custom.css
    Description:    Custom styles for Thesis
    BASIC USAGE:
    If you have enabled the custom stylesheet in the Thesis options panel, the <body> tag
    will be appended with the "custom" class, like so: <body class="custom">. You can use
    the "custom" class to override *any* CSS declarations contained in the style.css file.
    For example, if you wish to change the default link color to green, you would add the
    following declarations to this file:
        .custom a, .custom a:visited { color: #090; }    <--- This makes links green
        .custom a:hover { color: #00f; }    <--- This makes links blue when you mouse over them
    WHY THIS WORKS:
    By using the "custom" class, you are creating more specific CSS declarations for HTML
    elements. CSS styling is applied through rules of specificity, and because declarations
    prepended with .custom are more specific, they get applied when the page is rendered!
    More information about styling your Thesis installation using this file can be found
    in the User's Guide:
        http://diythemes.com/thesis/rtfm/customizing-thesis-with-customcss/
    If I remove that comment, DW does not screw up.
    Adobe - is anyone there? This is a bug. Can it be fixed?
