Can you open multiple files using an advanced action?

I have either Captivate 5.5 or Captivate 7 to work with. Currently my project is in 5.5.
I have a button that I want to open three PDF files. I created an advanced action, selecting Open a new file/URL and selected the file name. Currently they are set to open in a new window.
When I test the button, only one file opens.
If I set one to open in a new window and another to open in the top window, I lose the course but get two to open.
Is there a way for me to open each of these files in a new window using the same button?

You could do it by executing javascript:
in Captivate: open_win()
add this to the head section of your html page that loads the captivate object:
<script type="text/javascript">
function open_win()
     var url1 =" http://www.google.com";
     var url2 =" http://www.yahoo.com";
     var url3 =" http://www.bing.com";
     window.open(url1);
     window.open(url2);
     window.open(url3);
</script>

Can you open powerpoint files using Gmail?

I read that even if you don't have any application to open a power point file that if you use Gmail that you can open a pp file-?
This seems to good to be true -

You're Welcome susiecat.pat!
As Google's help center did not specify, that the feature was not available for OS X, I was hoping that it would work for you.
But as neoroanatomist has verified, unfortunately that is not the case.
Sorry.
I use NeoOffice, but I must admit, the only feature I use it for is to view PowerPoint slideshows.
I haven't taken the time to learn all of it's other functions, as the application appears quite complicated!
And thanks for the !

Can you open freehand files in CS6?

can you open freehand files in CS6? I have been using both illustrator & freehand for 15 years & have thousands of work files being freehand.
It seems very disappointing to have to keep an old version of illustrator just to open these files. I also find it interesting that many of the key tools that freehand had over illustrator are not translated into the newer versions of illustrator. Something simple like you still can't have a unique picture bullet • before text in illustrator. In freehand you could cut & paste any graphic into the text you were designing.

No. The conversion plugin didn't make it into CS6 so the last import function was CS5.5

At this point, it is the only way to make your files convert into Illustrator although I've had some luck with exporting to EPS or (if your FH graphics are simple enough) save as AI format. Keep your eyes on this project however : http://www.stagestack.com/

As a fellow FreeHand user, I couldn't agree more. Other users of both programs have said this endlessly over the years here. A litany of features are still m.i.a. since FHMX was acquired years ago... including inline graphics. It's almost comical.

Can I open raw files using photoshop elements

Can I open raw files using photoshop elements

Yes, depending on the Camera Model and version of PSE.
All camera makers like to make slight changes to the RAW format for their new models. Adobe then take a few months to produce a camera RAW plug-in to process the new format.
Give you PSE version and camera model and we could be more help.

How can I open multiple files as Photoshop Raw files at the same time for Photoshop CS6 extended on a PC?

I am trying to open 20-25 files at the same time as Photoshop Raw [*.RAW] files.
The only way I can open multiple files is if i leave the file type as All Formats. When I change it to Photoshop Raw [*.RAW], the files a deselected.

Use bridge. Select all the files then press ctrl-r or cmd-r to load the selected files into camera raw.
If you try this in Photoshop use File>Open As then for file type choose camera raw. (I have not tested open as for opening multiple files)

How can you open multiple instances in Safari?

I am new to the Mac world. I was so used to having multiple instances of Internet Explorer open when I used a Windows PC. Can anybody please explain to me how can I open multiple Safaris? Thank you for answering my question.
McCam.....new to the iMac world.

Hi McCam,
Welcome to the world of Macs
Open Safari, and then under the File menu you can open a new window (or press command+n to do the same thing - the command key is the one with the Apple symbol on it).
Hope that helps.

Can you opening multiple albums at the same time in Photo (not iPhoto)?

When converting the iPhoto library to Photo most of the albums that were in place in iPhoto converted to albums in Photo . . . .but not all. Some were retained as events mainly those that were folders within an album. In order to move them to the right album I would like to have multiple albums open at the same time (side by side) so that I can make sure not to duplicate photos or move them to the wrong spot.
I cant see how to do this, it seems that I can need to open one album and check phots and then close to look within and other and rely on memory. There must be a more efficient and accurate way to do this?

All of the events in iPhoto were converted to albums and are located in the Folder titled iPhoto Event in the sidebar of Photos.
You can't open multiple albums at the same time. You can create a smart album that will do essentially the same thing with the following criteria:
Album is "A"
Album is "B".
The smart album will display all of the photos in those two albums.

Hi pjustin1,
you must use the policytool.exe given with JDK 1.2.x (or more).
and with this tool you must add a permission on file (FilePermission) you want to access.

Photoshop can't open multiple files...

I have Photoshop CS3 and I've had it for some time...pretty much since its release in 2007. In all that time, it's worked perfectly.
A couple days ago, it started doing this thing where I could open a file and everything would be fine, but then I'd try to open another file and it'd automatically stop working. I.E. I would get the "Photoshop has stopped working" message. This happens with any file and any file format. I can never have more than one file open.
This is a HUGE problem for me--I'm a graphic designer and it's almost impossible to work with Photoshop this way for the rest of my career. I lost my CS3 installation discs when I moved and I don't want to have to buy a new license...but I can't work this way.
Any ideas?
I'm on Windows Vista on an HP Pavilion Notebook. Thanks!

Also, once everything is working, think about making a backup image of your hard drive

CD/DVD discs or write image to a USB hard drive

Can you open multiple windows of the same Keynote presentation?

Like you can in PPT, where you can go Window > New Window, and see more than one slide at once of the same presentation in the large view. If there is any way to view more than one slide at time, in the large view, please let me know.
I know about Light Table, and that's useful but I really want to be able to open multiple instances of the same presentation like I could in ppt.

Thanks, I will. It seems like such an obvious thing, yet I could not find anyone referencing it anywhere. I thought I was the only one who used ppt (or now keynote) that way. Otherwise it is awesome, so much better than PPT.

Can't open PSD files using "Open With..." feature in 3rd party programs.

I use MediaPro to manage my media assets and it allows me to pass files to PE10 with an "Open With..." feature. So I can have a file selected in MediaPro, and then open that file with PE by using this feature. It worked great with PE8, but for some reason I cannot get it to work with PE10. When I use the feature, PE10 opens, but to a blank page - the actual image fails to come into the program.
I know the problem is NOT with MediaPro, since this worked flawlessly with PE8. The problem appears to be with PE10. Any ideas???
Carl...

If this is on a mac, my guess is that you are choosing the obvious file as your external editor rather than the correct one. You want this one:
The file at the top level of the PSE 10 folder is just an alias to the welcome screen.

CS4 Camera Raw: Can't open multiple files ???

This is a very strange problem. I recently installed CS4 and started using it with RAW files from a Canon 5D Mark II camera. When selecting File -> Open As ->Camera Raw, I can't seem to select more than one raw file from the file dialog. I can open a single raw file no problem, but no matter what I try, either ctrl-A, holding down shift or ctrl does not allow me to open more than one file. With CS3 this worked fine.
Is there a setting in Preferences to control this (seems very odd even if there is)
PS: I see that there are two Camera Raw selections available in the file types list: what's the difference between them?
Thanks

If they're raw files then just use File->Open, you only need to go the File->Open As route if you want to open JPEG files in Camera Raw without going through Bridge.
There's no point in listing Camera Raw file formats because every camera produces it's own version anyway, a .CR2 file produced by one camera isn't the same as one produced by another camera which is why the Camera Raw plug-in has to be constantly updated.
