Adobe Captivate 6 Issues

I recently had a virus and my Adobe Captivate 6 applicaiton had to be removed and reinstalled.
1. When I attempt to open the application now, I recieve  a pop up box that says, "Some Adobe Captivate features such as screen capture and audio may not work as intended without Administrator privileges.  Right Click the Adobe Captivate icon,  and then chose Run as Administrator to launch Adobe Captivate in Administrator mode."  This was not something I was required to do in the past, why is this step necessary?
2.  When I attempt to use Themes, I am being informed that all overrides to object styles and properties will be lost.  Do you want to continue?  This step is resulting in my text captions appearing with black triangles on each corner and in some instances a black background with greyed out letters.  How do I set this option keep ovverides to object styles?
3.  How do you change a set as default theme?
4.  Is it possible to restore cached files that were previously worked on?  If so, how?

You probably had Administrator access set up on your PC previously and Captivate was set to launch with Run As Administrator privileges.  Now you don't for some reason.  Perhaps whoever did the work on your computer has not set it up the same way this time, in which case you will find Captivate will not work properly.
As far as restoring files from the cache, see this thread:

    Hi,
    I downloaded Adobe Captivate 5 to add audio to PPT slides. The audio works well on the first slide, but from then on the audio is not getting recorded on the slides. I am trying to add some audio per slide.
    Please help.
    Thanks,
    Vishwas

    Hi
    We are looking for a software which converts SWF to MP4, we found many software which does the job but issue is file size is not optimize.
      We found Adobe captivate 6 which gives optimum quality with good output but thing is we do not have batch process in captivate 6. so we request you to create a plugin or give a best option which have batch render quality and optimize in file size,

    Captivate is e-learning development software not a dedicated video convertor, you are better off trying something like Adobe Media Encoder or Super.

  • Adobe Captivate 5- Color Issues (excel 2007)

    Please help me!
    I am using Adobe Captivate 5 and am recording 2007 excel.  When I have completed the movements, the images and background appear to be fine.
    As soon as I preview or publish the colours of the cells and objects (e.g. highlight box) get mixed up:
    Either the colors start moving into different areas, or dissapear or randomly move as the screen moves (This image was taken when the screen wasn't moving).  Is this a software bug? Anyone had the same issue? Any way to resolve this?
    I appreciate the help!

    Hello,
    Could you check the video quality of the slides? You find this in the Properties panel of the slide, region General. Perhaps it is set to 'Low, 8-bit. Try to change to one of the other settings. On the Captivate blog you'll find a great explanation about this Video Quality. Have a look at:

  • Issue with using Adobe Captivate Review 2.0 software

    I have a file that is about 102Meg  published that I am sending out for review.  I am posting it to location that everyone has access to on our network.  The issue I am having is kind of odd.  If you install the Captivate Review software on a new machine you can review the .crev file add comments and save just fine.  If you close the programm you can not get the software to open the file again.  If you go to a different machine and install the software you can review the file again.  We are running 32bit Windows XP with duo cpu @ 2.66Ghz and 4 Gigs of Ram on our engineering computers. If we publish a small file size it does not seem to be an issus.  Has anyone else run into this issue?  

    No, but I would really appreciate it if you could report this to the Adobe Captivate team using the web address I have included below.

  • Issues with Mac Version of Adobe Captivate 6

    I am having issues with Adobe Captivate 6 for Mac.  I am missing functionality.  Specifically the advanced actions dialog box.  I get "null" value in all the fields in the dialog box.  Also when I open captivate the welcome screen is blank.  I tried uninstalling and re-installing but I am still having the same issues.  Am I missing something on the install?  Has anyone else experienced these issues?

    Hi,
    Did it worked fine previously? Can share some more information like your Mac version?
    Can you share the screenshot of the problem screens?
    Also, Try to follow these steps, to verify in case your Preferences have not gone corrupted--
    1) Close Captivate
    2) Launch Finder
    3) Go -- Go to Location
    4) ~/Library -- Go to Preference>Adobe> Adobe Captivate 6, Rename the Folder to 'Adobe Captivate 6_Old '
    5) Relaunch Captivate and verify if thing improve.
    Thanks,

  • Text spacing issues Adobe Captivate 8

    Hi all,
    I've already taken this to the adobe help chat and they haven't been able to help me.
    I recently updated to Adobe Captivate 8.0.1.242 and it has caused me no end of trouble with spacing.
    Basically if I have a text caption with multiple font sizes it causes in a responsive project the spacing to go haywire. Meaning the preview and the published output looks entirely different, the spacing looks to be around 2 or 3 (rather than 1.5) which crops off big chunks of text.
    If I roll back to the previous version of the programme, I do not get the same issues.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Is there some reason why you are posting exactly the same topic under two different user profiles?  If you're thinking you will more likely get an answer this way, I have to tell you that you are more likely to annoy people here and possibly even be mistaken for a spammer.

  • Adobe Captivate 5.5 and Neo Speech: issue to use Paul voice

    Hello,
    I have installed succesfully Adobe Captivate 5.5 and then Neo speech Add-on. But unfortunately, when using Speech management function, I can't find Paul and Kate voice. These voices are not proposed in the voice list while the installation has suceeded.
    A Kate and Paul directories have been install under Adobe Captivate 5.5 but I don't know why these voices seems to be not installed.
    My PC uses Windows XP, default language = french. Adobe Captivate has been installed in English.
    Thanks for your support,
    Odile

    Hi,
    First I have installed Adobe Captivate 5.5.
    Then I have installed Neo spech.
    I have restarted my PC, then launch Captivate: Paul and Kate voices are not present in Speech Manager. And I have no special error message, only voices missing.
    After that I have installed Loquendo speechs.
    Launch again Captivate and see that Loquendo voices are pesent in Speech Manager.
    Now I will show you Neo Speech install report, installation done after an Captivate application stop:
    The installation has succeeded in the good directory.
    When installing Loquendo the report is not really the same, it seems that some additional execution are done:
    Following other discussions on the forum, I have looked at my Windows Control Panel Voice and see that 3 voices are proposed. I assume that these are Windows voice. I didn't find Stefan, Simon, Kate or Paul voices and I'm not ablle to add or configure something.
    If someone has an idea of the issue

  • Adobe Captivate 4 "Blue Screen" on editing "Preferences"

    Hi there,
    I am using a professional license for Adobe Captivate 4, from work. So it's not a personal copy and I cannot just do a clean install without difficulty.
    Anyway, I was using the system fine, and taking an online training about the tool, and half way through my application will now "blue screen of death" when ever I click on "preferences" for even a blank, brand new project.
    I've searched through the forum, this site and googled for it, and the only solutions I can find are to update drivers (which I've done with the help of IT support), update firmware etc which is already up to date, and lastly - to delete the captivate folder, reboot and start again.
    None of these have worked. Has anyone else ever had an issue like this?
    Do I need a clean install? (this would be a pain as I cannot directly install it myself).
    Thanks!

    Try deleting the Captivate preferences file - captivate_v40.dat - found at ..\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Captivate. This would probably solve your problem.
    (in Win XP go to Start - Run and then type %APPDATA% to open up the correct directory. In Vista / Win7 type %APPDATA% in Start - Search)
