Adobe Captivate asks me to save my project file when I dont make changes...

Hello,
I think it is confusing Adobe will ask if I want to save the file even if I don't make any changes... Maybe this is something they can change in the next version?
Ryan

I have had this happen. It's odd. Some things seem to get saved, while others do not.  I haven't tracked it to be certain, but as I recall Bookmark changes or changes to File Properties, for example, won't be saved while working in the Content or Tags panel may be.  No idea why this is the case. 
As mentioned above, it's always a good idea to make interim Save As's using a different file name (File01, File02, etc.) so if your document should become corrupt during the editing process you have an earlier version to go back to.

  • A fatal error has occurred and the application is being terminated. Adobe Captivate has tried to save all your work in the respective project folders as ".cpbackup" files.   Please restart Adobe Captivate.

    I was trying to capture a simulation when a pop-up window came with this error:
    "A fatal error has occurred and the application is being terminated. Adobe Captivate has tried to save all your work in the respective project folders as ".cpbackup" files.Please restart Adobe Captivate."
    I tried every possible solution but i am getting the same error. Even now, i am not able to open a blank project. I cleared Preferences and Cache, Restarted the system, uninstalled and re-installed captivate but the error occurs.
    Please help.

    Having admin rights is not the same as 'Run Captivate as administrator'. For the last, right-click on the start icon for Captivate and check 'Run as administrator'. Or click on Advanced, where you can check the option to always run as administrator.
    Another possibility could be a corrupt font somewhere. I forgot to ask which version you are using (exact number).

  • I can't save Logic Projects/Files since updating to Lion. Help?!

    I can't save Logic Projects/Files since updating to Lion. Help?!

    I just had the same problem, after working on a project for a couple of hours and thinking it was saved, I go back to work on it some more and all the work I had done was not there. This is totally frustrating. I posted here as well and haven't had any responses. Good luck to you.

  • Each time I open FF, box asks me if I want to allow Firefox prog. to make changes to this compter. I can only go in if I tick yes each time. Never used to do this.

    Each time I open FF, box asks "Do you want to allow the Firefox program to make changes to this computer?" Details are something about x86 exe files. I can only open firefox when I click yes. Only started doing this today. Also printer has stopped printing. Not sure if its related.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Today 22 june 10

    Check that you do not run Firefox as Administrator.
    Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".
    In the Compatibility tab, make sure that Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" is not selected.
    You also need to check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program directory.

  • Adobe captivate multiple quizzez within a single project

    Hello I am trying to create a test that includes 6 different exams, but i want the usert to have to pass each exam with at least a 75% before they can access the next quiz. I am very new to captivate. Any help would be very appreciated.
    Thank you

    You will need 6 different Captivate projects, each of which will have one quiz (exam).  You can set the passing percentage for each project file to 75% under Quiz Settings > Pass Fail.  To force the user to pass each module of your course before they can do the next one, you really need to be serving up your course content via a Learning Management System.  The LMS usually handles that side of it.  If packaging your course modules as a multi-SCO SCORM course for your LMS, you'll ideally be using Adobe's Elearning Suite 6, which comes with the Multi-SCORM Packaging tool.  The version that comes with ELS 6 can accommodate more of the SCORM rules than previously possible in earlier versions.

  • To save each Project file in AIR application separately

    Hello
    I'm on the verge of developing a Desktop AIR application for a particular purpose. Now this application has the facility to develop multiple projects. What I would like to do is to save each of this project in a separate file in a specified location.
    And moreover when I double click this project file, the AIR application should load with the specific project. My main purpose is to port project file of user's choice from one PC to another and open the same (assuming AIR application is installed in that machine) on double clicking it.
    So if a user has created 5 projects inside the application and wants to share only one of the project, he/she should be able to do that.
    A application that works the same way is MarketSamurai.
    I hope I have explained it clearly my requirement, kindly please provide me suggestions.
    Thanks

    You can register file types, sure. Did you check the API reference ?

  • Adobe Captivate Outputting/Rendering Slow, Sluggish, and Choppy Video when ScreenCasting

    When I screencast my desktop and then output/render the video that Adobe Captivate recorded, the video is always so choppy, sluggish, and slow.
    I set the frames per second to 80 and interval to 1, 5, and 10, and still choppy video.
    My system specfications are as follows:
    Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1
    CPU: Intel Core i7 @ 3.40 GHz | Sandy Bridge 32nm Technology
    RAM: 16.0 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 665MHz
    Graphics Card: AMD Radeon HD 6600 Series
    Is there something that I am doing wrong during/after I record?
    Any help would be awesome!
    Thank you!

    Hey Anjaneai,
    I mean slow as in my Cursor movements are not as smooth as I expected with this software.
    I have chosen the Video Demo recording mode.
    I did check the option to show "Actions in Real Time" from Recording and it only applies to Audio. I am speaking of video. I have tried comparing. I tried comparing with Software Demo, but it's impossible to compare, seeing as Adobe Captivate generates the mouse for you.
    I thought that the higher the Frame Rates the smoother the experience.
    Thank you!

  • Firefox keeps asking me to open/download PHP file when it used to be able to display properly.

    I use to be able to view local PHP files normally in Firefox with the PHP parts not rendered while the HTML parts are. Now all it does is ask whether I want to open or save it.
    I've tried editing FF options so that it previews in FF but it doesn't accept any changes. I've cleared my cache and all that. I've tried deleting the mimeTypes.rdf file thing but I can't even find the folder it's in. I've tried disabling/enabling "prompts.tab_modal.enabled" in about:config and restarting FF.
    All are no-go solutions.
    Web PHP pages are loading properly, this problem only comes when I'm trying to load local PHP files. I don't want to install XAMPP or PHP on my computer just to view local files as I never had this problem before.
    In the meantime, I've installed Chrome and it's loading a simple local PHP file just fine whereas FF is asking me to save/download when opening the SAME file. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Yup, deleting mimeTypes.rdf and re-starting did the trick this time. Thanks very much!
    Also, on a somewhat related note, I cannot view mozillazine.org and any sub-domains under it in any browsers. This may be happening to other users as well?
    It's always stuck at "Waiting for ..." or "Connecting to ..." and that's it. Then FF gives up with a "Server connection time-out" notice. Clearing cache and all that doesn't work because I was trying to view those pages before starting this topic.

  • No longer have the original Captivate files but need to make changes to a movie

    I have two Captivate movies for which I no longer have the
    .cp files. Is there some way to import the existing parts of the
    movies (.swf, html) into Captivate so that I can make changes or do
    I need to start a new movie?
    Thank you,
    Stephanie

    There's no 'decompiler' to convert SWF files back to
    Captivate.
    But I've seen references to decompilers to convert SWF files
    back to
    Flash (FLA). You could search, find, and try one of
    those...but I'd
    guess that the result wouldn't be very...edit-friendly.
    Otherwise, you gotta start a new movie.

  • "Invalid Project File" when I try to open my work! HELP!

    When I try to open my .ncor project file (eithe with Encore 5 or 5.1), I get "Invalid Project File" pop-up box.
    Why? What is wrong? There are only menus and buttons in the project!
    All hard drive are connected. Using Windows 7 Pro (will switch to Mac very soon!!).
    Never had a problem before. Until now.
    Any suggestion???

    What tha? Today is the first time I've Heard Of, Seen, or Recieved this error... ever!
    - This project started on my Mac but something is awry with my Adobe/Mac setup so I did a minimal Adobe installation to my Win7 64bit PC laptop. (Pr CC, Pr CS6, & En CS6)
    I just finished Building & Transcoding my project in En CS6 on my  laptop.
    I closed En and went to lunch. When I tried opening my project an hour later, I recieved the error.
    Trying to move project folders into a new En project structure prompted the same error.

  • LOST Project File when external hard drive accidentally unplugged!

    My external hard drive got knocked out and the project file is now nowhere to be found anywhere. Anybody experience this and/or have ANY advice?

    Thats bad news ... how long had you been working on the project? Regardless, it looks like its time to start over. Looking on the bright side tho, its a valuable lesson well learnt and a good reminder to everyone else. Never keep all your eggs in one basket ie keep you main project file and autosave files separate. Personally, I keep the your Autosave Vault on an external drive but work with the main project file on the internal (startup) drive, then copy that saved main project file across to the external as a backup at the end of each day. And re the autosave settings, make sure they are suitable ... I see lots of folks leave their autosave at the default save every 30 minute setting ... don't know about you but my fingers work fast enough that 30 minutes work would be way more than I'm willing to use.
    Good luck with the rebuild

  • RoboHelp 9 either won't launch or does not show project files when it does launch

    Hello,
    I had a freeze in RH9 and after force closing and relaunching, I got a message that the .cpd file was corrupt and needed to be deleted. I deleted the entire project folder in my local drive and then retrieved the files from Visual Source Safe. When I tried to launch the .xpj file from Windows Explorer, RH launches to the splash page, but never moves beyond that. When I try to open from the Start menu short cut, RH launches but none of the project folders or files are there.
    Emptied the local folder and retrieved files multiple times, but no change. Logged out completely and restarted the machine and no change.
    Help!

    Can you open one of the sample projects? If so, then something's gotten messed up in your VSS project; if not, then your RH install may be damaged.

  • When I open firefox, a pop up window asks "do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer? How can I get rid of this pop-up window ?

    Every time I open the browser, a pop-up window asks "Do you want the following program to make changes to this computer?"
    It is unnecessary and annoying to have to click "yes" each time.
    How can I get this pop-up window to stop?

    Thanks for the help I'll keep the info just in case - but I got so frustrated that I just deleted the program and then re downloaded the current version now everything works fine.

  • How do I close and save an InDesign file. I lose all changes.

    I download an ID rext file, make changes, save.  How do I get it uploaded so that when I download to work again my changes are not lost? Should I be keeping the file on my desktop, working, saving, and uploading to Cloud when closed?  I am so confused.

    Thank you!  I get it now.  I have ID sitting here in my computer and can work anytime and also send files to storage.  Thank you!
