Adobe Captivate 4 Answers not appearing on quiz slide

I have quiz slides in my project with single answer multiple choice questions.
Sometimes on my slides as they are playing the letters for the choices appear but the answers do not.
I hit the right button on my mouse and refresh the page and they appear.
Please let me know if there is something I can do to assure the answers appear all the time.
Thank you,
David Gambal

As far as I am aware, deleting or replacing the Question Title or Question Text captions in quiz questions in any version of Captivate will cause issues. So don't do it.
You do not need to always choose Optional as your Preferences > Quiz Settings > Required setting. But if you choose one of the other more restrictive options this drop down offers (Required, Pass Required, Answer All) then you may run into strange issues where your quiz seems to stall for no apparent reason, especially in situations where you try to Retake Quiz or move back and forth from quiz questions to content slides. I recommend you start with Optional, and then once you have everything working perfectly, try the other settings if you really feel the need. Personally, I never seem to use them.

Adobe pdf printer does not appear

I downloaded Adobe Reader 9 to my HP laptop, but the Adobe pdf printer does not appear on the list of available printers. My HP says it has AMD Turion (tm) 64 Mobile Technology ML-34 and Windows XP (Version 2002, Service Pack 2). Can someone tell me how to get the Adobe pdf printer to appear in the list of available printers? Thanks. dmm

Reader is just for the reading pdf files. It does not create pdf files.
For that you need one of the commercial Acrobat products. If you only
need to create 5 or less pdfs, then you can use Acrobat.com.

The answers questions not selectable in quiz slide for some users

We have a SCORM Captivate training content published on our LMS (SAP Learning Solutions). Some users can't respond to any questions in the content.For these users, the answers are locked and are not selectable. Also, the Validate and Erase buttons didn't appear.
The problem concerns about 10% of our users.
This training contains both content slides and quiz slides.
The content is published in SCORM 1.2 (SWF + HTML) with Adobe Captivate 5.5. We had the same problem for some users with the previous version of this training content published with Captivate 4.
All users have the same settings:
Flash Player 10.3.183.11
Internet Explorer 6
Microsoft Windows XP

The most likely reason for this behaviour is that your 10% of users have entered the quiz and then thought they might jump back to the information slides to check the answer. On doing so they have exited the quiz scope which immediately locks the quiz.
Have you actually watched these problem users complete the quiz? If you are able to do so, make sure that once they start the first question, they answer all quiz questions in turn without jumping to any other slides or leaving the quiz. If my hunch is right, the person will be able to successfully complete the quiz.
If the desire is to allow users to jump back to the content section to check information, place a scored button on the first or second slide of your project. This extends the quiz scope and will mean that the user is still within the "quiz" no matter what slide they want to look at.

Radio Buttons Not Appearing in Quiz

I created a quiz in Captivate 5.5 then upgraded to Captivate 6. When I run the quiz locally, the radio buttons appear next to the possible answers and everything works fine. When I run the quiz in our LMS, the radio buttons do not appear. Anyone else having this issue or have any insight?

Hi Anjaneai,
For some clarification, we are loading the Captivate 6 quiz swf into another swf. When we play the quiz swf alone, the radio buttons appear. However when we play the quiz swf within the other swf, the radio buttons disappear. To reiternate, we loaded Captivate 5.5 quiz swfs into another swf and the buttons appeared. Do you what the difference between the Captivate versions could be or have any insight?
We've already looked into some of your suggestions (the Flash player is not the issue) and am looking into your other suggestions.
Below is the screen shot you requested.
Thanks again for your assistance.

Adobe Captivate 4 - Flash Not Installed Error

We are using Adobe Captivate 4 on Windows 7. Since the Microsoft Windows Updates around January 8, we are unable to open Adobe Captivate 4. We get the message that the Flash Player is to be installed and the application shuts down after the message that an Internet connection is required. I have followed the steps on the Adobe Help page: Error: "Adobe Flash Player is not currently installed" when you start Adobe Captivate with no success. I have even uninstalled Adobe Captivate 4, reinstalled it and followed the instructions on the aforementioned Help page. No luck. I am running Firefox and Internet Explorer and IE is the default browser. Adobe Captivate 4 acts as though it cannot connect to the Adobe Flash website, but I already have the most current Flash Player installed. We use Adobe Captivate 4 primarily for Quizzes since we can effectively e-mail the results to trainers. We do have Adobe Captivate 7 and the Quiz Results e-mail feature does not send the results; only a blank e-mail shell. Is there any solution to this Captivate 4 problem?

Unfortunately, that is not an option. I work for a state government and the computers are locked down for security reasons. Updates are handled by an IT group and pushed out to all state computers. We were running Flash Player 10 and everything worked fine until the Flash Player Update was pushed out as a Microsoft Update on January 8th. There have been subsequent "Security Updates" to the Flash Player pushed out via Microsoft and none have corrected the problem. Even if I could uninstall the current Flash Player and install an older version, it would just be updated to the current Flash Player tonight.

Adobe Captivate 5.5 not updating scores ...

I published a SCORM 1.2 course using adobe captivate 5.5 and uploaded the course to LMS but its not updating the progress(Score) of the Course to LMS. Can you please explain how can i get the progress of the course while Im unloading the page..
Thanks in advance,
Rahul_R.

I don't have a quiz in my course, but I was able to get mine working by setting the last "next" button on the slide before the last as a quizable object set to give 1 point in the properties panel for that button. Then, in the publishing preferences, I use:
This works for me, but some LMS's are more picky. I had to play around with the settings in these panels until I got it to work with my LMS.
Hope that helps!

Adobe Connect (Training) does not have a quiz/test builder in it?

I assume the answer is "No", because I have done research on the web, asked other Traininers (they have no clue) and found nothing. So is it true that the ability to run a webinar series and not have the option to create a quiz/test that automatically grades (when answers are preloaded)? I am looking all over my AC training room, but nothing.
For comparison (just in case I am wrong), I am looking at WebEx, Go-To-Training, and Blackboard Collarborate quiz manager.
Thanks for any confirmation!

You can create poll questions in the Connect room, but they are not graded. However the answers are tracked and recorded and the individual(s) managing the room can go back and review the attendee responses at any point.
You can use Adobe Presenter or Adobe Captivate to create a presentation with a quiz in it, and then present that quiz in the meeting room. It will also track user responses, but won't track the pass/fail information. That is only tracked using the Training Module of Connect, and can be done by using the on-demand version of the presentation or by pulling it into a Virtual Classroom as a Training Course.

Are Adobe Captivate swf files not compatible with IE8 or IE9 when inserted into RoboHelp projects?

Hi,
I've published Adobe Captivate swf files and then inserted them into my RoboHelp project. I then synced my RoboHelp project with our website and the videos within online help are not functioning in IE8 or IE9. They are only working in IE11.
Thanks,
Jaimie

Hi there
When a SWF plays in IE, it uses the Flash Player ActiveX control. I'm not 100% sure that different versions of IE would share the install. So if you have one version of IE on your machine, perhaps it either doesn't even have the control added in or it's the wrong version.
One thing I would check in the browsers where the content seems to be missing is to right-click the blank area and see if you coax a Flash pop similar to below:
Then note the version number.
You may find that all that you (or others) need to do is ensure you have at least a specific version of the player/add-in installed.

Adobe Captivate 5 - Problem with scoring with Quiz exported to PDF

Hello,
I have created several review quizzes that have been exported to pdf and uploaded to the internet. They are elementary school quizzes that are listed on a canned school web hosting site that only allows uploads in common formates such as Microsoft Word and pdf.
I tested these pdf quizzes with no problems and from my computers they still work fine; however some people are having problems with the scoring element. Some - not all questions are not tabulated correctly in the end review section. I have been told that the questions were answered correctly but the end review showed some questions as wrong or not answered. The quizzes are reveiw only and no reporting or LMS is used.
Has anyone else seen this? I had a feeling that perhaps the adobe reader was at fault, but so far everyone is using reader version 9.
One of the quizzes can be found here.. http://www.germantownschools.org/faculty/jwoger/4th_math_topic_1_quiz[1].pdf

Hi,
I have since my initial post been told that certain elements of the quiz slides are also not working. Correct answers have a sound clip that plays when the "correct" option is selected. This is not working for some users. Like I said I have no problem with the pdf quiz from any of the computers I use and don't know why it doesn't work for others.

Adobe Captivate 3 does not load

After installing Captivate 3 and using it successfully for a
week. All of a sudden the program will not open. It gets stuck at
the "Copying First Run Files" then the splash screen disappears.
How can I solve this? I am completely lost and out of ideas.
Thanks in advance,
Eric

Welcome to our community, Eric
You might need to reset the Captivate Settings file. (I call
this "Whacking Captivate upside the head").
To reset the settings file:
Ensure Captivate is closed.
Open Windows Explorer and navigate to the following location:
?:\Documents and Settings\????\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe
Captivate
Note that ? represents the drive letter you are using and
???? represents your logged in user name.
Rename or delete the file named
captivate_v30.dat
Restart Captivate and hopefully things will be improved.

Adobe Captivate Help | Learner Notes interaction

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/captivate/using/learner-notes-interaction.html

Is there any way to swap out the 'Widget Note' icon? It bad artwork.
I have a cool custom button that I wanted to bring up the Note widget. Also, if I put the Note Widget on top of my custom button, it blocks the button's glow for the mouse over state.
Any ideas?
cheers

Captivate Demo Does Not Appear

I'm using TCS 3.5, have a machine with 8 GB RAM, large hard drive, fast processor. I am using Captivate to record in Demonstration mode at 1024 x 768. I am outputting to swf.
I have followed the RoboHelp instructions to the letter, but still get this problem: the Captivate demo does not show in my CHM, except when you click the View Result button after compiling. It also shows up in the topic preview ("View Selected Item").
It does not show up when you double click the CHM file in a folder. What shows is an outline of where the demo should be, with a red X in a little box at the upper left corner.
It does show up in WebHelp. The code in the CHM looks okay to me:
<body>
<p><object id="object1" data="captivate_demo.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
style="border: none;" width="1445" height="950">
<param name="movie" value="captivate_demo.swf">
<param name="quality" value="high">
</object></p>
</body>
I have the latest Flash update (as of 10 minutes ago) running.
Ideas?

Any workarounds at all?
You mean besides stating that folks only use the CHM on 32 bit systems or offering instructions on how to launch the 32 bit help viewer?
I do suppose you could use the Shortcut control to open an instance of Internet Explorer with the Captivate page. But that would require ensuring the Captivate SWF and associated files (HTML, JS) were shipped and installed to the same folder as the CHM file. And depending on how your CHM was launched, you might need to script the path to the file because of the CHM pathing bug you see when a CHM is launched by an application.
