Adobe Captivate Help | Publish projects as HTML5 files

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/captivate/using/publish-projects-html5-files.html

I opened a captivate project and published as HTML5. It worked in a browser on the desktop. then I tried it on an iPad. That also worked. Then I tried it on an iPhone. that worked, but the document was far too large for the iphone to display. I was curious as to whether or not the "scale html content" check box would make a difference for iphone, so I tried it. It did fix that problem, but, as expected, it broke the animations. Now when I try to publish to HTML5 it creates a sort-of hybrid, where the document is the correct dimensions in a browser on the desktop, but it is forced into smaller dimensions on the iPad, and no where do the animations work anymore, although the "scale html content" check box is unchecked. I used the Captivate cache clearing button in preferences and cleared my browser cache on the iPad, restarted the computer, etc. To no avail. It seems using the "scale html content" has permanently broken Captivate 7. I am now considering reinstalling it.

    Thanks Lillybiri,
    I should have checked first. Would you happen to know if the PPT transitions are supposed to translate over to Cp6 when importing a PPT?

  • Adobe Captivate 5.5 project - slides not playing through automatically

    Hello,
    This is my TOC on an Adobe Captivate 5.5 project I am working on. Slide 1 transitions to 2 no problem. However during Slide 2 I notice the time counter stops and then you have to click on to Slide 3 manually to play it ( it does not just play through). This happens again from 3-4 etc. I want the recording to play through and the viewer can decide to stop/resume/move to different chapters...
    Thanks

    Hello and welcome to the forum,
    Probably you have an interactive object with a pause on that second slide. That is not visible on a TOC, please post a screenshot of the timeline of Slide 2. How did you create the file?

  • Adobe captivate video publisher upload button does nothing

    Hi, on 2 different machines, the adobe captivate video publisher upload button does nothing.  Add to that support says it's not available when I called in on a trial product.  Hmmm if you won't help BEFORE I buy, what will happen after?  c'mon... i've purches thousands of dollars worth of adobe software and currently own the creative cloud ...and I get the brushoff like that?  Oh and the chat system wasn't working becuase the queue was too full....

    lol.  Great day.  Just not for Adobe! .  Worked fine on my older imac 27", but not my 2 new machines at work... macbook air and pc with a lowly 24gb ram... go figure.

  • Adobe Captivate 6 - Publish withouth MP4 files?

    I have problems in publishing projects which contain movies in the Video demo format.
    When publishing in SWF format, MP4 files are generated for each Video Demo that I've inserted in the project. In this way I am not able to use the SWF file in "stand alone" mode, since the videos will not be displayed.
    To avoid this problem I have to keep the MP4 files together with the SWF file, which is pretty annoying due to their size. Moreover this dosn't allow me to store the project on a SCORM plattform.
    With the Version 5 I've never faced this problem. Can someone help me? I am publishing in the wrong way?
    Otherwise would it be possible to open the project created with the version 6 in the version 5?
    Many thanks for your support, Debora

    Hi there,
    Welcome to Adobe Community.
    The feature of Video Demo that you are using was introduced in Captivate 6 and yes it creates the MP4 of the video demo. In earlier version the video demo used to be in a different way where it used to generate multiple slides and that option is still available in CP6. If you do not want an MP4 to get generated please choose the below option to create a demo:
    Hope this helps!
    Thanks!

  • Can't Access Adobe Captivate Help files

    Hi,
    I've installed Adobe Captivate 5 and upgraded it to 5.01.624. Addionally, I noticed that I can't access my Help files.I've also noticed that I can't access help from Photoshop CS5 as well.  However, I've installed the latest Adobe AIR 2.6. I've checked the Common File folder and I have an Adobe Air folder with a folder labelled Versions and a file labelled sentinel.  I'm on Windows 7.   Any help would be appreciated.

  • Adobe Captivate Help | Import questions from GIFT format files (Cp 7)

    Hi there,
    Captivate 7 doesn't support tags during GIFT import. So you won’t be able to import Images, links etc. as part of GIFT Import.

  • Is there any other way to get Adobe Captivate help?

    Hi guys,
    is there any other way to get Adobe Captivate specific help? I've posted a question twice with no help, it's very specific, so no one here might actually know the solution. I'm wondering though, since the chat is obviously not for Captivate users with product or service questions.
    Is there a tech team I can somehow contact? We really need an answer to the problem.
    Thanks,
    Nat
    P.S. I'll post the problem again here:
    We publish mp4 training videos as HTML5 content and have the problem that we need to restrict the player to only play/pause.
    Adobe Captivate 7 works fantastic for us on almost all devices, many Androids, many browsers, and even on iPad. Captivate, after adding the video as a multi-slide video to one slide and publishing it as HTML5 content, only lets the student play and pause the video - just what we need.
    But then we test it on iPhone and the iPhone's internal quicktime player recognizes the mp4 video and kicks in, gives the student all the functions they want, totally overrides the HTML5 published Captivate restricted playback options.
    Is there ANY way we can get around that? Any function or box we haven't checked before publishing the HTML5 content?
    We would even be happy, if the video wouldn't play on iPhone - just as long as they can't use it to fast forward to the end of the video.
    Does anyone here know how to bypass the internal iPhone 5 player?
    Thanks,
    Nat

    By the way, I have updated to the newest Captivate 7 version and am using iOS version 7.0.4.
    Again, it's fine on iPad, but not on iPhone 5.

  • Adobe Captivate 5 published as pdf not displaying in certain versions of Adobe Acrobat and Reader

    We have an issue where upon publishing files as a pdf in Adobe Captivate 5, they will not open in Adobe Acrobat Pro (9 or 10) or Adobe Reader (11).  However, they will open in Adobe Reader 10.1.4.  I have searched up and down these forums and google, without any solid resolution for this issue.  We are running Windows 7 64-bit machines.  It should be noted, that if we publish as a exe, it works without any issues.  See below for other threads with same issue (but no resolution), and a screenshot.  Thanks!

    Try this. Though the solution is for CP6, it might still work for you.

  • Click boxes and buttons not working in Captivate 3 published projects

    I really, really, hope that someone can help me...
    we are migrating from Centra/Saba LMS to Connect Pro LMS and while taking our "old" SCORM projects and posting them to the Connect Pro server we have encountered an issue...and the reason it's very hard to trouble shoot is that it's not all of the projects....??
    Once a project is pulished none of the buttons or click boxes are working - for instance we use a play button on the frist slide for students to enter the course - you click it nothing happens (except when you mouse over the button it does change color)...same with the click boxes - I can use the progress bar to move froward but anything I click just doesn't respond...
    Has anyone encountered this? and I hope know something we can do?
    THANKS SO MUCH,
    Jen

    Do your published projects work outside of your LMS?
    Or is it just inside the new LMS that it isn't working?
    Usually buttons and click boxes not working is because your slides are pausing before the button becomes active.
    What version of Captivate and Flash are you using?

  • Adobe Captivate 4 Simulation Project

    I've been asked to use Adobe Captivate 4 to create a simulation of company software.
    I understand how to use the simulation capabilities of Captivate, but this project can easily get extremely large.
    I can picture hundreds of slides for one of the many processes. 
    Since we always try to keep our projects to 60 slides or less, I am not sure Captivate is the best choice.
    Has anyone had experience with creating simulation projects with Captivate 4.
    If so, are we truely limited to a given number of slides, etc?
    Should I be exploring other software to create this project?
    Thank you,
    David Gambal

    David,
    Cp4 did seem to have some limits when it came to the number of slides it could handle, but I believe the actual number was well over 100.  Maybe someone else can chime in with their personal experiences, but I've used it to create simulation project with more than 100 slides without issue.  However if you were going for 200-400 slides then you might be in dicey territory.
    If you were going to have to purchase another tool to do this anyway, why not just consider upgrading to Captivate 5.5?  I don't know of any other software simulation tool that does it better than Captivate.

  • Adobe Captivate Reviewer - won't load .crev file in Vista

    Using Reviewer for the first time (Captivate 4 on Vista box).
    Downloaded Reviewer from email link
    Clicked on .crev file from email link
    In the Reviewer, got message "Unable to load SWF file. Try opening Adobe Captivate Reviewer in the Administrator mode"  (see pic)
    Clicked OK
    Clicked the .crev file in email link again per message "Load Adobe Captivate Movie (.crev, .swf., or .zip)"
    Got same "unable to load.... " message again (see pic). Viscious circle here
    Downloaded Reviewer to my XP machine - all works like it should.
    What do I need to do to my Vista box (primary machine) for the Reviewer to work?
    SMILES
    Susann

    This issue arises because, for some reason, the adobe developer(s) have hard coded a temporary file location of "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate Reviewer <X>*\workspace" to store the .crev, .swf or .zip file when you open it from its original location.  In most corporate environments "\Program Files\ or \Program Files (x86)\" is, correctly, restricted to non-administrative users to ensure the integrity of managed applications and the industry standards for temporary storage have been long established as \temp\, \windows\temp\ or <user profile>\appdata\temp\
    The corporate workaround to your issue is relatively simple.  Your user account needs to be granted the privilege to be able to create and own the workspace folder in the above location.  If this is not feasible then you could always just copy the entire contents of "C:\ProgramFiles\CommonFiles\Adobe\Adobe Captivate Reviewer <X>*" to a location on your machine where you have full access, i.e. your desktop.
    Ultimately Adobe development need to update the code in Adobe Air.dll to create the workspace in a temporary folder that conforms to industry standards

  • Adobe Captivate not publishing results

    Hi,
    We appear to be having a problem with Captivate where it's not publishing results to a network drive.
    We have applied the fix as details below:
    http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l
    3rd tab along, click 'Always Allow'
    Add
    T:\
    \\my-network-path\tdrive\
    I have tried this however its not publishing results.
    Does anyone have any ideas on why this would not be working?
    Thanks

    The Flash Global Security settings govern whether or not content on a LAN or remote drive will play properly for the user that adds this location to their trusted settings.  However, it doesn't necessarily give you PERMISSION TO UPLOAD published content to that location.
    If you're having difficulty getting Captivate content published TO the location (as opposed to playing it from there) then you need to investigate whether or not you have write permissions for that folder.  This is  network administration thing, not usually connected to Flash security. It could also be that there is some restriction built into your IT network that will only allow certain filetypes to be uploaded.
    Bottom line is that you may need to check with your IT dudes.

  • Can a quizz created in adobe captivate be published through adobe formscentral.

    I currently give printed question papers to my students.  As the adobe captivate is most suitable for quiz creation, is it possible to distribute the quiz created in the adobe captivate through adobe form central and collect the answers given by the students.  

    There is a web viewer but there is no way to allow anyone to download the folios from your website.
    You might want to look into Fixed Layout EPUB for that.
