Audio recording no longer works in Cap5 -- Ideas?

I created a presentation and recorded audio in multiple ways (Audio -- record to -- slide) (Audio icon in task bar).
Yesterday, I opened Captivate and these two options no longer worked.  I don't mean that I cannot record.  I mean that I cannot reach the screen in the software that allows you to record.
Recording in general works fine -- I can record to Audacity.  So it's not a Windows (XP) problem or an input problem or a hardware problem.
Everything else works in Captivate.
Audio from previously recorded slides plays.  I just cannot record.   After using either option above, Captivate freezes and I need to click Esc to unlock.
I know, that's weird.  If you don't believe me, look here.  Let me know if you see me doing anything wrong while you're at it.

So, I did what anyone faced with a weird isolated software problem would do.  I reinstalled Captivate.  Today, same problem.
HELP?  Any ideas?  I'm making final edits on my project, there is a deadline, etc. etc.

First thing to try is clearing the Cache using the button in Preferences.
If that doesn't resolve the issue, you can try closing down Captivate and deleting the Preferences folder itself.
On Xp it's located at: C:\Documents and Settings\<USER NAME>\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe\Captivate 5
Captivate will recreate this folder next time it starts up, but any Preference settings you've made will be lost.
Also, make sure you've installed all updates and patches.

  • Since last update on Mavericks, the picture attachement to a movie in iTunes no longer works. Any idea ?

    Since last update on Mavericks, the picture attachement to a movie in iTunes no longer works. Any idea ?
    Picture added is not displayed in the finder ; when transfering the movie to an Ipad, it is not displayed either.
    iMac 27', Mavericks 10.9 + iTunes 11.1.2

    Working here just fine. Try reinstalling:
    Reinstalling Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • [SOLVED] Default audio device no longer works after reboot

    After today's reboot, the audio device no longer works. E.g., VLC says:
    Audio output failed:
    The audio device "default" could not be used:
    No such file or directory.
    This is the console log:
    [0x1394138] main libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface.
    Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/50-user.conf", line 9: reading configurations from ~/.fonts.conf is deprecated.

    [0x7fac41055118] main decoder error: failed to create audio output
    The strange thing is that the sound card does in fact work; e.g. the sound test for "HDA Intel PCH", the first entry in my KDE Audio Settings, works. But the entry "default" does not and I suppose that is also the device that VLC is complaining about.
    I've tried blacklisting the HDMI driver and switched to the other audio output modules in VLC. I've also checked I'm still member of the "audio" group.
    Edit:
    P.S. Solved this myself. I had a USB-to-MIDI adapter cable plugged in during boot, which seems to have been causing these problems. I suppose systemd thought it was a USB sound card? I was wondering why dmesg said something about USB sound when the computer doesn't have any USB sound devices. Hardware detection epic fail. Although I guess the cable counts as a MIDI device at least, so in a way it's correct.
    So it looks like I'll always have to unplug the MIDI cable before rebooting.

    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
    Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.
    Relaunch the App and try again.
    Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

    No such app exisits or can exist.  Apple doesn't allow 3rd party apps to access core functions of the phone.  Time to get your phone replaced or repaired if assistive touch doesn't needs your needs.

  • Audio recording no longer an option in Logic Pro X with Fast Track Pro

    I use the Fast Track Pro, and I haven't changed any settings, but all of a sudden, recording is no longer working.  Is this most likely an issue with the Audio Interface?
    It was working 2 days ago, and I haven't tweaked any settings or touched anything.

    I upgraded to OSX 10.9.1 one week ago, and cannot record audio any longer using my Fast Track Pro with Cubase 7, so I am having the same issues.   My previous OSX version, no problems - audio inputs worked great.  I get output sound, but cannot record audio at this point.   I get constant noise spikes, and overloaded peaks.
    In System Preferences, when I open the Sound Icon, my Input settings default back to Audio line-in vs. staying fixed on Fast Track Pro.   This is cause for concern, because this tells me that 10.9.1 won't work with any sound card - or at least until Apple decides to fix this.   Whether this is intentional or not from Apple has me wondering, given the move by many manfucturers to lock you in their proprietary equipment.
    I think the answer in the short-term is to downgrade back to the previous version 10.8.   I'm going to give it a try. I thought you should know that a non-Logic user is having the same issues and I feel your pain.
    Let me know if you get yours working.    Best of luck.

  • Audio inputs no longer works.

    About 2wks ago I started having a problem video chatting in iChat. The video worked great and I can hear the audio output from the other person in the chat. However, the person on the other end of the chat can't hear me.
    When I checked the microphone settings for iChat I noticed iSight was no longer available in the drop down menu. I tried a different iSight that I know works and still nothing. I tried plugging into a different firewire port, but nothing. So I went into the "System Preferences>Sound" and the iSight doesn't show up there either. I plugged in an external mic into the line-in and I still don't get anything. I even tried just doing an audio recording in Quicktime to see if the issue was with iChat but that had the same result.
    So ... I think the issue is with the line-in driver. Anyone have any suggestions. Thanks in advance.

  • After installing latest update Realplayer recording no longer works, I think Mozila is using a library file with the same name

    After installing the latest update to Firefox onto Vista operating system the record part of real player no longer works, I think Mozila and Real are using a library file with the same name and the Mozila update is overwriting a Realplayer library file.

    I was giong to say, "Help me, Adobe Joe Kenobi", but it looks like you're growing a beard waiting for an answer, too.
    The same thing happened to me today. I trusted the "update" message since it was from Adobe, and apprently did so at my own peril. Now I get the "failed to load Core dll" message with a secondary reference to a memory address.
    Just an observation, but what good are these forums when there are no answers? I see this problem as "Caused by Adobe Update", and would expect them to troublshoot and offer up a remedy. Since you've been waiting over two months with no response, I suppose it's time to trek off wasting more of my precious time to fix their problem. If I find the solution, I'll post it back to you.
    May the Force be with you.

  • Audio Inputs no longer work after upgrade to 10.4.10

    Anyone else having trouble with audio inputs after upgrading to 10.4.10? Here's my deal:
    MacPro dual 2.66, 4GB RAM, running 10.4.10 as of this morning.
    Upgraded to 10.4.10 today and the mic on my Plantronics USB headset quit working. 'Phones still work. Here's what I did:
    1. Tried multiple audio input devices. None work.
    2. Tried all USB ports, problem persists.
    3. Tried the 1/8" audio input, problem persists.
    4. Zapped PRAM, problem persists.
    5. Called AppleCare and they had me do an Archive and Install on the system software, which installed 10.4.7 and the problem went away. Then, at their suggestion, I let Software Update reinstall 10.4.10 and the problem came back.
    6. Rebooted the system from a 2nd internal drive running 10.4.9 and the problem went away.
    Seems pretty clear to me that this issue is with the OS, yet Apple's support staff insists the problem is "with the data on my boot drive". Thing is, the data on the "problem" boot drive consists of exactly the same applications on the other drives, and only those applications. There ** is no ** data on the boot drive other than the OS and some applications. Yet the other drive I can boot from that runs 10.4.9 and doesn't cause audio input issues contains all sorts of junk.
    So, to reiterate, I'm booting from a clean boot drive with nothing but OS 10.4.10 and some pro applications on it and the audio input won't work. I boot from into any other Mac OS on this drive or any other and all is well. Yet this problem is supposedly with my data?
    Is anyone else out there seeing issues like this?

    I used a UVC-compliant USB Logitech camera (the
    Fusion) driverless
    under OS X 10.4.9.
    FWIW, none of these devices are actually driverless. They rely on drivers either supplied separately by some company (not necessarily the vendor of the product) or bundled into the OS. Usually, the bundled drivers are based on open standards like UVC mentioned in the link. Apple writes a lot of the bundled driver code itself but some of it comes from outside sources like LSI or Intel.
    An unfortunate fact of life is that open standards are not always as well defined as they ideally should be. Another is that certain companies sometimes set their own standards that aren't quite compatible with open ones, sometimes to implement real or imagined improvements on an open standard, sometimes to gain a marketing advantage.
    The good news is that the market usually -- eventually -- favors the open standard. The bad news is that it often takes some time for this to happen, leaving users -- particularly Mac users, who still represent a smaller market force than those using Windows -- without a solution for an uncomfortably long period of time.
    Your best or only recourse for now may be to downgrade to 10.4.9 until this gets resolved, but you should also take into account that not all users are having these problems so it may be something other than the update itself that is causing the problem. I just video chatted with a colleague using an Intel Mac mini who is having no problems whatsoever -- we are both puzzled why he is unaffected while others are.
    Sorry this couldn't be of more help.

Between the hassle of replacing a hard drive, mouse problems, firefox, opera, office mac and elgato tv problems and issues im fed up.

    Apple menu -> System preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse should give you controls over the mouse. If not, either Steer Mouse or USB Overdrive might give you better control.
