Problem with Audio in Buttons and Interactive

Hi!!
I have problems with the sound into buttons and Forms Interactive. The question is when I add a sound within a button, this it sounds directly when it enters the slides and not when the user presses the button.
How I solve it?
Thanks

Hi there
It isn't a problem. The function is working as it should. You simply have a different expectation!
You have to think about it in different ways. When do you want the audio to play? When the button has been clicked, right? When you attach audio to an object such as a Button or an Image, the audio plays when that object appears. The trick here is to make an object appear on the Button click. You then attach the audio to that.
If you have Captivate 3 or older, you can enable the Success caption for the button. Attach the audio to the caption. Button is clicked, caption appears and you hear the audio.
What's that you are asking? Oh, you don't want to actually SEE a Success Caption? No problem. Choose the Transparent caption type and remove any text!
If you have Captivate 4, you can also use the same method to accomplish this. But you can also probably use the new scripting in it to make the audio play on a Button click. I can't tell you how to do that at the moment if that's the approach you want to take. I'll have to leave that to another person here that has played with the scripting to explain how it's done.
Likely it involves opening a panel, inserting or declaring a variable, adding a sound file, associating the variable with the sound file, assigning actions to the button to check the variable and change it if you need to. Stuff like that. Sounds a bit like a Rube Goldberg setup. But really that's what happens with the Success Caption method. It's just that we deal with objects and not the code behind the scenes.
Hopefully this was somewhat helpful... Rick

  • Problem with java swing button and loop

    Problem with java swing button and loop
    I�m using VAJ 4.0. and I�m doing normal GUI application. I have next problem.
    I have in the same class two jswing buttons named start (ivjGStart) and stop (ivjGStop) and private static int field named Status where initial value is 0. This buttons should work something like this:
    When I click on start button it must do next:
    Start button must set disenabled and Stop button must set enabled and selected. Field status is set to 1, because this is a condition in next procedure in some loop. And then procedure named IzvajajNeprekinjeno() is invoked.
    And when I click on stop button it must do next:
    Start button must set enabled and selected and Stop button must set disenabled.
    Field status is set to 0.
    This works everything fine without loop �do .. while� inside the procedure IzvajajNeprekinjeno(). But when used this loop the start button all the time stay (like) pressed. And this means that a can�t stop my loop.
    There is java code, so you can get better picture:
    /** start button */
    public void gStart_ActionEvents() {
    try {
    ivjGStart.setEnabled(false);
    ivjGStop.setEnabled(true);
    ivjGStop.setSelected(true);
    getJTextPane1().setText("Program is running ...");
    Status = 1;
    } catch (Exception e) {}
    /** stop button */
    public void gStop_ActionEvents() {
    try {
    ivjGStart.setEnabled(true);
    ivjGStart.setSelected(true);
    ivjGStop.setEnabled(false);
    getJTextPane1().setText("Program is NOT running ...");
    Status = 0;
    } catch (Exception e) {
    /** procedure IzvajajNeprekinjeno() */
    public void IzvajajNeprekinjeno() {  //RunLoop
    try {
    int zamik = 2000; //delay
    do {
    Thread.sleep(zamik);
    PreberiDat(); //procedure
    } while (Status == 1);
    } catch (Exception e) {
    So, I'm asking what I have to do, that start button will not all the time stay pressed? Or some other aspect of solving this problem.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Best regards,
    Tomi

    This is a multi thread problem. When you start the gui, it is running in one thread. Lets call that GUI_Thread so we know what we are talking about.
    Since java is task-based this will happen if you do like this:
    1. Button "Start" is pressed. Thread running: GUI_Thread
    2. Event gStart_ActionEvents() called. Thread running: GUI_Thread
    3. Method IzvajajNeprekinjeno() called. Thread running: GUI_Thread
    4. Sleep in method IzvajajNeprekinjeno() on thread GUI_Thread
    5. Call PreberiDat(). Thread running: GUI_Thread
    6. Check status. If == 1, go tho 4. Thread running: GUI_Thread.
    Since the method IzvajajNeprekinjeno() (what does that mean?) and the GUI is running in the same thread and the event that the Start button has thrown isn't done yet, the program will go on in the IzvajajNeprekinjeno() method forever and never let you press the Stop-button.
    What you have to do is do put either the GUI in a thread of its own or start a new thread that will do the task of the IzvajajNeprekinjeno() method.

  • Problems with the home button and generally freezing and shutting down often.

    I have had this iPad 2 for around 3 months. After about a month I noticed that I was having to press the home button multiple times in order to get it to respond. It is now at a stage where I have to press it as many as 12-13 times. It's won't do this every time but all day for maybe 3 out of 5 days the other times it works fine.
    As well as this I have also had issues with the Internet shutting down, Skype going crazy, picture albums popping up and then vanishing and so on. I'm not a computer wiz but I would describe it as going crazy two or three times a day.
    While I was in a shopping centre about a week ago I asked about the problems in an apple store. The man was very helpful and asked if I had it on me so he could look at it. Unfortunately I didn't be he said I could bring it back whenever I like and it would take around 30 mins for someone to check it out. He said most Likley they would just give me a new one and that would be that. So of course happy that it could be sorted I went home. Today I decided to drive the nearly two hours down to Brisbane after having a nightmare time trying to Skype my friend this morrning. I hot to the store and asked if it could be looked at only to be told I need an appointment. I showed the card that I had been given and explained what I had being told. To cut a long story short he agreed that I had been told that but said the assistant clearly didn't know what he was on about and that I should come back. I offered to wait but dispute the shop being more full of staff watching movies and downloading songs then actual customers I was basically denied any sort of help and told to call the office to arrange an appointment.
    Sorry to rant! I just thought that apple were renowned for good service? 5 hours later I'm home with the same issues.
    If anyone has had similar problem with the device or even customer service I would be intrested.
    Regards,

    Me too!  I had many bugs and returned my phone for a brand new one that did this the first time it was turned on at the Apple store.  I was told it is a "software issue" and to "reboot the phone" if it continued to happen.  It happens almost every time I try to use my phone.  I've rebooted three times in a row some days.  Nothing really seems to help.  I keep waiting for an update.

    to go into my email inbox. what script or coding to i need to add
    to the page to make these two things i mentioned above happen?the
    code for the page and where does it go. that is the reason for my

    > There are only two ways to process form data -
    You understand that, right? You are asking about how to
    process form data -
    and I am saying that there are only 2 ways to do that.
    > 1. Use mailto:[email protected] as the action of the form
    You understand that? Each form has an action -
    <form action="..."
    --------------------^^^
    The contents of that action attribute tells the browser what
    to do when the
    form's submit button is successfully pressed.
    In other words, you could have <form
    action=mailto:[email protected]
    That would be ONE way to do it - but there are many
    disadvantages, as
    explained further in my post. The other way is method 2 -
    > Use a server-side scripting method to a) harvest the
    form's data, b)
    > process it in some manner, e.g., enter it into a
    database, c) formulate
    > and
    > send an email to one or more email recipients, and d)
    redirect the visitor
    > to some ending page
    To do that, you'd have to *have* some server-side script -
    there are quite a
    few of them to choose from but the normal host usually also
    supplies one as
    part of your hosting package.
    > You would have to decide which of these methods is best

    Do you undertand that?

  • Problem with audio shortcut buttons (windows 7), especially mute

    I some severe issues and had to do a clean install of windows 7. I lost all the preloaded lenovo applications. I cannot get the short cut mute button to work. The up/down volume buttons work, but they don't show the change in volume (green bars on the screen) that they used to show. Mute does not work at all. Can someone please help me? I assume I need to install a driver to get this working again.
    the drivers I have installed are power manager, audio, bios, and hotkey. I thought the hotkey driver would fix it, but I haven't had any luck.
    thanks

    Same problem here after clean install of W7-64 on a T500.   None of the green screen indicators (screen brightness, ThinkLight, volume, and mute) show up.   All functions except mute work, but without indicators.
    Can somebody help? 
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Try doing the following
    try using the simple 'Button'. In the button's object properties, in the tab named 'field', select 'Control Type: submit'.
    Then, in the 'submit' tab in the object properties, choose PDF in the 'submit format' dropdown field.
    In the 'submit to URL field' type:

  • Hi, i am using iphone4s.. 2 days ago i had a problem with wifi.. button greyed out, it was suggested to keep phone in freezer, worked temporarily and i updeted to ios7.1 but still facing same problem.. wht to do? cant afford to throw off :/ huhh..

    Hi, i am using iphone4s.. 2 days ago i had a problem with wifi.. button greyed out, it was suggested to keep phone in freezer, worked temporarily and i updeted to ios7.1 but still facing same problem.. wht to do? cant afford to throw off :/ huhh..

    well, you know how it is - glitches that usually resolve with a hard reset etc
    then a restore. then a factory restore....then ..... nothing fixes so I try the next step with apple online - fill out my serial number and find it is a couple of weeks out of date - and then with the holidays who has time to get to the apple store? this is my second 4s handset as it is - first one the glass cracked from L to R without any impact/damage etc - they changed it out automatically because it's a 'known fault' apparently - so technically, this handset is only 6 months old - but warranty is from original purchase date -
    never imagined it would turn out to be a warranty issue with the phone - and hey maybe when I get a chance to go to the apple store they'll be sympathetic, but I won't be able to get there till at least Jan 4th as it is. On the other hand, another iOS update might resolve the issue - but how long till that release? at the moment I'm having to use my old 3gs for wifi and 4s for phone!!!

  • Problems with Audio in iPhone 5

    I Have a iPhone 5 and today beginning having problems with audio, I can't hear my calls or music, somebody have the same problem?...do you know how I can fix it?

    Do you have the side switch enabled - do you see orange on the switch above the volume keys.
    Make sure all your settings are turned up.
    Try a restart of the phone by holding the home and power button until it reboots
    If that does not work you can reset your settings by going to settings > general > reset > reset network settings and then reset all settings.

  • Problems with audio panning.

    Am having problems with audio tracks. For example: when capturing a clip where a person is talking, there would be 2 tracks of audio - one a radio mic (Track 1) and another mic (Tack 2)capturing ambient sound. I often delete the ambient track (Track 2) and am left with the the main audio from a radio mic (Track 1).
    The problem is when I open up the main audio track (Track 1) and pan the audio track from -1 to 0 or even to +1! It says it has done it but the sound still comes out of the left speaker.
    It is a very recent problem that I wonder may be something to do with preferences or settings.
    We have had no problems with the speakers at all.
    Thanks very much,
    Geoff

    You have your audio outputs set to 'dual mono', not 'stereo'.... go to:
    Sequence>Settings> 'Audio Outputs' tab > then highlight the 'Stereo' button, then click OK...

  • Problems with audio programs after update to Maverics

    After updating to Mavericks on my Mac Mini there is problem with audio programs. I cant open iTunes at all, I click it and it disappear in a second. Also when I press play in GuitarPro 6 or in Vox player nothing happens. It just wont start playing. I really dont like this update.. and my mac is slower now. I cant downgrade my system back so this is really frustrating to me as a musician.

    I have the same problem with my Conceptronic CH3HNAS and have found a free and easy solution.
    Since a lot of people report they are able to access their NAS using apps other than the Finder itself, I decided to look for a free Lion-compatible File Manager to use instead of Finder.
    I have found muCommander ( http://www.mucommander.com/ ) and indeed it works fine. All I did was click on the button highlighted bellow, go to "bonjour services" and select my NAS. It prompted me for my username and password and voilá, it works fine.
    I keep Finder for everyday use and just load muCommander when I want to access the NAS. At least now I don't have to start my WinXP VM anymore just to access it.
    Hope it helps you.

  • Problem with Audio on HP Envy 6-1130sw (C6F62EA)

    Hello everyone.
    I have a problem with audio on my ultrabook HP Envy 6. Sometimes when I try to play music there are no low tones and music plays really silent... And then when I restart PC problem dissapears and music plays fine... I thought there is a problem with speakers, but when I connected 5.1 speakers there were also only high tones. Same thing happens on headphones. Is it a hardware problem or maybe software? Actually I use Windows 8.1 and drivers are up to date. If any one of you had same problem please post.
    Thanks. 

    Hi piotrek1130sw,
    From what you have described, I think the best approach would be to restore the original IDT driver, restart the computer, test that driver, then install the driver update, and test the outcome of installing the newest driver.
    Use the following link for instructions to recovery the ITD driver using Recovery Manager. Restoring applications and drivers.
    Once the driver is restored, restart the computer and test the audio. If the audio is good you can continue to use this driver, or you can reinstall the update and see what happens. IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver.
    If installing the newest driver causes the issue to occur but the recovered driver worked, I suggest recovering again.
    If neither driver works I will gladly follow up and provide any assistance I can.
    Please let me know the outcome.

    See Here for
    Frozen or unresponsive iPod touch
    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart..  Reset..  Restore...
    Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the iPod Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the iPod On...
    If that does not help... See Here:

  • Problem with Audio MIDI Setup using multiple accounts

    I'm having a problem with Audio MIDI Setup recognizing all of the MIDI devices on a G4 Tower with a non-administrator account. The main administrator account has no problem seeing anything, but the non-admin account won't see anything. Does it all have to be added in manually, or is there a preferences file to copy over that will take care of this. Failing that, is it a problem with file permissions? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Don't know whether this of any help, but there's an identifiable issue with AMS and Digital Performer 5 where DP5 simply won't load with AMS setups configured with previous versions of DP. Which is probably irrelevant to your problem, but ...
    What I and other DP users have found we have to do is start with a completely new, blank AMS setup, and reconfigure our devices from scratch, and although this was kind of hit and miss and on the fly (don't really understand what the the issue was, exactly), I think the bottom line was if we used the new AMS setup with DP5 before anything else that might cause its data tables to change, we were ok.
    So if you can do it, it might be worth setting AMS to a new blank template, then connecting your interfaces, see how far you get. And always make sure you've got the latest drivers of course, though I'm sure you've done that.
    Never used Mbox or 410, but I've an Ozonic which I think uses the same M-Audio firewire drivers as the 410, and don't have any problem with that, FWIW.

  • Two problems with audio clips

    Hello,
    I'm having two problems with audio clips:
    1. When I try to drag a clip from the viewer, I can't do it because it won't let me drag the clip. It only lets me drag the pointer around within the clip.
    2. When I drag an audio clip from the browser into the timeline I don't get any audio, just a series of beeps (and yes, my audio media is on-line -- I can listen to it in the viewer, just not the timeline).
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks.

    1. Drag the little hand on speaker icon to drag from
    the Viewer...
    Thanks! (Does it actually say that in the documentation anywhere? I try to RTFM, but the FM seems to be a little, er, mute on this point.)
    2. It means your sequence settings don't match the
    properties of the source audio you're putting in it,
    and you either need to change the settings in the
    sequence, or render the audio.
    Ah, that would explain it. Thanks!

  • I have a problem with the effect gallery and the saving libraries in Illustrator CS6

    Hi everybody
    I have a problem with the effect gallery and the saving libraries in Illustrator
    1. When you go to to effects > effect Gallery the the sketch filter always is black and white. Is this normal? In Photoshop you can set your background and foreground and the sketch effects takes those colors. Is there any way to do this in Illustrator? I have tried changing the colour of the fill and stroke but nothing...
    2. In the same area as before effects > effect Gallery .... In Photoshop you can add multiple filters with the create new button. Always is off is there anyway to make it available? or the only way is to by creating several individual ones and manage then in the appearance panel ...
    3. I saved a brush library and now it appears in the user defined area so I can get it in any document, that is good but any one knows how to delete a user undefined library?
    Many thanks in advance for the help .... I look forward for the reply =)

    I see that it is six months ago that I first posted this. Nothing has changed. When I use affixa to create a message with an attachment from my gmail account in firefox, the message is created in drafts, but the gmail window is closed and I have to re-open it. Not critical, but annoying.
    Now there is a plug-in on the affixa site that is supposed to be designed for Firefox, and which affixa support claims should take care of this. And I've downloaded it twice. When you download it and open it, it says that it will be installed when Firefox restarts, and gives you a button to restart Firefox. But after you click that button and firefox disappears and re-appears, the affixa plug-in is NOT in the plugin list.
    Please, somebody, HELP.
