Adobe Captivate 4 files in Adobe Captivate 3?

Hi this might seem like a simple question,
Is it possible to open Adobe Captivate 4 files in Adobe Captivate 3?
Thanks guys!

Hi Manish
I tend to disagree with this. Think of Microsoft Office products. For example, Microsoft Word. Many folks have been accustomed to having the ability to use a newer version of Word to Save As an older version format which could then be easily edited on a different PC in the older version.
I can see a real use case for this capability with Captivate. Perhaps you have a large organization that has a multitude of Captivate copies. Most are on 3 and they cannot upgrade all PCs at the moment. So they add perhaps three licenses and all they are able to purchase are version 4. Suddenly you have a mismatch!
Something for you developers to consider.
Cheers... Rick

    Your question make no sense. What exactly are you trying to do?

  • Starting today, Firefox will not open Adobe Acrobat files in Adobe Reader, despite my putting Reader as default in Applications tab.

    Until today, I had no trouble opening Adobe Acrobat files with Adobe Reader 9.5. (I need to use an old version of Adobe Reader, because I use a program called Macro Express that does not recognize later versions.) Starting this morning, when I click on an Acrobat file, I am asked which program I want to open it with. Even when I click "Do this automatically...", it doesn't do so. It asks me every time. I went into Tools, Applications, and changed all of the pdf related issues to open with Adobe Reader 9.5. This also doesn't work.

    What I did was to reinstall/upgrade Adobe Reader, then there is an new option showing up in Firefox > options > applications > Portable Document Format(PDF), which is "use adobe acrobat in Firefox". Choose this one, then I managed again to open PDF files with Adobe Reader internally in Firefox.

  • How to move Adobe CC files to Adobe CS5?

    I am trying to move files from Adobe Creative Cloud on one computer to Adobe Creative Suite 5: Design Premium on a separate computer, but am being told I do not have the right plugins (even though Firefox says my plugins are up to date). Help!

    I think you misunderstand. InDesign CC files will never open natively in CS5. They will have to be exported as IDML.

  • Cannot upload and share swf or captivate files in adobe connect

    I'm trying to add a Captivate 6 file to my meeting in Adobe Connect 8. I can publish to the server but when I open a pod in the meeting room and share the document, it will not show properly. It will continue to spin but never upload (in Chrome it freezes the screen and in IE it spins and makes awful white noise). Uploading different ways does not make a difference. I am able to upload PPT and Presenter files fine. I migrated to a new server in July and wonder if some configuration is wrong. Any suggestions on what to try next?

    I am assuming that you are using the direct option of publishing to Connect server. It will be worth the effort to try first publishing to a local ZIP file and then uploading the ZIP in Connect.

  • Adobe InDesign File to Adobe XDP File

    Our enterprise leverages XDP Templates to create PDF Forms.
    We have a branch of business that is coming onto to our enterprise standard, but they currently leverage InDesign to build their PDF documents.
    Does InDesign have functionality to export to XDP Format for Adobe Designer?
    I do not want to export to PDF then reconvert into XDP. What type of XDP support if any is there with InDesign?

    Cory, Dov is a high mucky-muck of stuff at Adobe (click on his name for more info). Reading between the lines, it sounds like he's saying
    We're working on it. CS4 is due to be released sometime in the next year or so, and it wouldn't surprise me if it supports the Export to XDP function. But I could be wrong....

  • Adobe Captivate File: Won't Open, Fatal Error

    I'm on a Dell PC Laptop.  I've saved an Adobe Captivate 7 file, then exported it to Flash format.  I can't open the FLA or SWF files that I exported.   When I try to open the original Adobe Captivate file (using Adobe Captivate 7) it gets up to 60% and stops and says a "Fatal Error" has occurred and the program needs to close.  I can't even open the Adobe Captivate software program to start a new project.  My coworker tried opening the saved Adobe Captivate file on his computer but it said it was "open by another user or the file was corrupt" so couldn't open it there either.  Please help!

    Click on Organize -> Folder Options
    Go to "View" Tab and check "Show hidden files and folder"
    Once you click on "OK", you will see AppData

  • Other problems with loading Captivate files into Flash AS3 project

    I have a Captivate file done with Captivate 3, published to
    Flash player 9 that is being loaded into Flash AS3. The captivate
    is a simple recording of some mouse clicks in a browser. I am
    displaying the playbar along the bottom, and its buttons all work
    fine except for the progress bar, where you can drag the knob and
    scrub back & forth in your presentation.
    This progress bar is not working as it should. I see the
    mouse cursor change to a hand, but when I click I cannot drag the
    knob to control the progress bar. The other buttons in the playbar
    do work (replay, pause, play, back, forward).
    This is a unique problem in that it is only happening when
    viewed in IE (7) when loaded into my Flash AS3 project. When viewed
    in Firefox in my project, or as a standalone SWF, or as a SWF
    simply embedded onto a plain HTML page, it works just fine.
    Does anybody have any insight?
    Another thing I notice with loading Captivate files with AS3
    is the the amount of output messages it displays. Rather annoying
    (unless this is a "feature" I've yet to be aware of - heh)

    Hi,
    I know exactly how you feel, there is simple answer; replace
    Captivate for Camtasia Studio 5 at techsmith.com. The weight on
    those shoulders will be gone! You'll smile more, be more
    socialable. One Happy Person.
    I am very happy person ;)

  • Importing Captivate CS3 project into Captivate CS5.5

    Our company has a number old projects that were created and saved in Adobe Captivate CS3.  We need up update the material using Captivate CS5.5; however, they will not open in this version.  We believe it may be due to older Flash files and the drop in support of AS2 files.  We can open these projects in Captivate CS4, then CS5.5, but this is not a long term solution for us.  Is there a converter or some other option available???   Thank you very much.

    Apart from opening Captivate files with other Captivate versions has you have already done, there is no other solution for upgrading your projects.
    Bite the bullet and do this immediately to get your projects into CPTX format files.  Cp7 or later versions will not open .cp format files.  Only CPTX.  So since you appear to currently have Cp versions that will open your old Cp3 files, you are best advised to do this right away.  Otherwise your next upgrade to Cp7 or Cp8 later this year could see you tossing all courses built in the older Cp format.

  • Published EXE file Error-Adobe captivate 4

    Hi,
    I'm having problems with publishing an EXE file in Adobe captivate 4. I know it has something to do with our internet browser settings, we are a Court location and we have strict settings, but I'm wondering if there are work arounds through adobe captivate. See error below:
    -allowing active content such as script and ActiveX controls can be useful, but active content might also harm your computer. Are you sure you want to let this file run active content? Y/N
    -Help protect security, internet explore has restricted this file from showing active content that could access your computer, click here for options.
    If you just select yes and proceed the captivate file runs fine and you can complete the training. Our goal is to be able to publish in this format because it's more stable than the PDF or HTML option but we don't want users to experience this error from the start.
    Thanks for helping with my questions!

    Hi, I've been trying to attach an image for the error message we get but not matter what I do it gives me an error and won't let me attach the image. Any suggestions or do you have an email I can send them too. The error message may be a little different than what I sent previously, it seems to give a different error message on different computers. But we are currently trying to create a new release of our training program so this should be the most current error message and the error message people will see when they open it on their PC's. Anyway this is what it says:
    First Error Message:
    File Download-Security Warning
    Do you want to run or save this file?
    Name: BasicCORIS_AttachAnAttorney.exe (name of our file)
    Type: Application, 9.27MB
    From: C:/CourtsOnlineTraining\Program Files\Dist....
    Run     Save     Cancel (we select run, than you get next error message)
    While files from the Internet can be useful, this file type can potentially harm your computer. If you do not trust the source, do not run or save this software. What's the risk?
    Second Error Message:
    Internet Explorer- Security Warning
    The publisher could not be verified. Are you sure you want to run this software?
    Name: BasicCORIS_AttachAnAttorney.exe
    Publisher: Unknown Publisher
    Run    Don't Run
    This file does not have a valid digital signature that verifies its publisher. You should only run software from publishers you trust. How can I decide what software to run?
    I hope this makes sense. Let me tell you a little more about how our training is set up. We load the training on to a USB stick that includes a menu, the training modules, and a shortcut. Once the USB is downloaded on to the users PC they can select a shortcut icon for the training. Once they select the training shortcut it opens a menu that they can select training from. When they select on the desired training this is when they would receive these error messages. Our current release is in a HTML format, but because of this format the training interacts with the web browser and causes us problems so we were hoping to publish in exe and the training wouldn't open in a web browser.
    Let me know if you have further questions or if I've just confused the situation more. Again thanks for your help!

  • Trouble Importing PowerPoint 2003 file into Adobe Captivate 3

    I am using Adobe Captivate 3 and am having difficulty importing a owerPoint 2003 file.  The file has 26 slides but Captivate only recognizes 17 of them.  The powerpoint file has no transitions or animations set that would cause any issues.  Any ideas as to what could be causing this?
    By the way when I open up Powerpoint and import the slides from my original file and do not keep the source formatting, the end file will be come into captivate fine(all 26 slides) but an animation that was not there originally now exists.

    Hi there
    You could try just running the PowerPoint and recording it from Captivate as it plays.
    You would also want to report the issue as a bug.
