Captivate 1 not capturing

This is a problem I have never had before. Captivate is not
automatically capturing screens even on entry to a new screen or on
a mouse click. I am having to force a capture using the Print
Screen option. This is not a feasable solution to the problem. Is
there some sort of problem with the version I am using? I have
1.0.1188 Build 1188.

berrylicious877,
Is this happening in all cases or only when you try to
capture a specific application? If it is the latter, it may be that
the application is "intercepting" the capture mechanism used by
Captivate and preventing Captivate from doing what it should. If
that is the case, I am not sure what can be done to rectify the
problem.
If it is happening in all cases, then you may have some
corruption in the registry settings. Others may offer up areas
where you can manually change those settings, but I prefer not to
mess with them. I would try uninstalling/reinstalling to see if
that corrects the problem.

Captivate 7 is not capturing system audio, and the software has a broken link

The Problem:
Captivate 7 is not capturing system audio. When I start a screen recording, the line with "System Audio" and its checkbox are eternally grayed out. Next to the grayed out words is a link that says, "Why is this disabled?"
The lnik goes to: http://www.adobe.com/go/cpaudio
Which is not a valid link, so Adobe's site redirects me to blogs.adoble.com/captivate which is ZERO help. Both browsing and the search bar bring no answers.
The Device:
Apple Macbook Air, Mid 2013, running OSX 10.9.2.
What I've done already:
Obvsiously I have set Captivate 7's preferences to capture system audio, and have set System Settings -> Security and Privacy -> Privacy -> Accessibility to allow Captivate to control my computer.
I have also tried clicking the Mic icon, Selecting Source with the System Audio icon and that doesn't record system audio either. It acts like it is recording system audio, but when I stop recording I get a popup that says, "Cannot record system audio. Ensure that you are playing audio on your computer [Okay]"

It's a wierd one.
One thing to try, and this fixes a lot of things, trash your preferences.

Captivate 5.5 Not Capturing All Screens

I'm making a demo for an online registration application that features several screens, each with many data input fields. We put Captivate in record, run through the application, and close out only to find that Captivate has zoned out somewhere in the middle and most of the screens are missing. We'll get the first couple of screens, one or two in the middle, and the end screen, but that's all. I experienced this problem a few times in the past but it seemed to correct itself without explanation and I've created several demos since with no problem. However, today it happened again - twice in a row with two different apps before we gave up.
I have no idea what could be causing this erratic behavior as this demo and the previous successful ones are very similar. A successful capture usually produces about 100-150 slides, but we're only getting about ten seemingly random ones. Same client, same server, same computer, same software. Almost nothing is different except for the app itself, which runs just fine all through the capture process. In fact, the app itself is only slightly different from the others. What could be the problem? Any insight would be appreciated.

Yes, I am using Captivate to capture the SAP (BW in this case) steps to be followed by a user. I wish your recommendation was all it would take. Unfortunately, it does NOT resolve the issue. The process of navigating the tool (SAP) includes steps that will execute the selection screen and Captivate seems to do one of the following:
1. Ignore all steps while the selection screen is processing
2. Potentially Freeze Captivate altogether - occasionally resulting in loss of work for the project being captured
3. Refuses to launch the Record option until I close the selection screen
I appreciate your willingness to offer a solution, unfortunately, a "work-around" is probably not a solution to this issue for us. I am leading a global course design team producing multiple courses and was hoping to utlize this software. This will not be possible if the tool can not operate effectively for these screens. I know that it can because Captivate 4.0 worked fine and developers were able to provide a temp solution in the past.
Adobe Developers:
You may recall our work together in the past for this issue. Please contact me and advise on what solutions you can put in place that will be a patch to the existing versions of the software. It is not an option for us to wait and upgrade for the multiple users we will need to use both Captivate 5.5 & 6.0. Thank you!

Special cursor are not captured in Captivate 6

We try to create software simulation of Russian analog of AutoCAD, named KOMPAS-3D.
In this program we are working with CAD drawings. And then in this software we are moving mouse over some objects of drawing like line or circle (or section in 3d drawing) - cursor are changing to special cursor symbol.
Important –> in this case cursor are changing not after mouse click. He changing with event mouseover.
But then we try to capture work with drawing in KOMPAS-3D – this special cursor symbols are not captured.
We try to use AC 6 for this screen capturing and can’t capture our special cursor symbols.
But in AC 5.5 – its work fine!
Help us please!

Hi
You might already know this, but stating it here to rule out the simple failure cases.
I have had a similar problem in the past using VTML tags inside Captivate. I used to type the slidenotes in my favorite editor and then copy paste the text from there to the slidenotes panel of Captivate. Turns out that my editor was using Unicode and hence the entire text pasted into Captivate slidenotes became unicode text, including the VTML markers. Though the pasted text "looked" fine the markers were messed up (for example, the double quotes around the value attributes looked like double quotes but they were actually multibyte unicode sequences) and this confused Neospeech. The output audio would be funny (for example it would read "Less Than...V...T...M...L...") or NeoSpeech will crash taking down Captivate along with it.
The fix was quite simple. I started typing the slide notes from within Captivate slide notes panel and everything worked fine after that. Alternately I could type in my favorite editor (after making sure that it is operating in Plain text mode) and then copy paste work flow also worked fine.
Another common mistake (at least, I do that often) is to select the speech agent from the drop down at the top of the dialog and forgetting to choose the speech agents for individual slide notes, which may still be referring to a non-neo-speech agent which does not understand the VTML tags.
No other software tool was required like the German Adobe Support team may have mentioned. I am using Captivate 7.

Adobe programs dont work with Captivate to capture/record

Hi there.
I've had problems with Captivate capturing screen recording from Adobe Premier cs5, where it would not show any of the video which was being edited. I figured this was just the video issue and worked around it by just not showing the video preview for the small thing i was demonstrating, it wasnt a big deal if it was just isolated to this.
Next I was using Adobe Photoshop and setting up a little demo on how to fill objects. Captivate did not pick up the cursor, it shows a ugly black box.
I also want it to pick up the full motion of my mouse cursor in photoshop, but it doesnt come close, so as im narrating how to do something, my actual mouse is not showing at the same time as im saying it which is essential when you are trying to show a way to FILL a certain area of a shape.
I had plans to do many things with captivate, now it seems i am going to have to switch back and forth with Camtasia, convert to AVI the parts that Captivate does not handle, and then import them into Captivate to make my demonstrations look seemless???
I have a lot planned for Adove CS5 Flash, is this also going to give me the same problem?
I have already searched for a solution tot his, and everyone has said that captivate does not capture things where there is overlayed content etc etc...
This strikes me slightly insane when Camtasia does it so well, and Im using an Adobe program to provide training on Adobe programs...
If anyone knows any delevopers for captivate on here, can they PLEASE look at this right now as im slapping myself wondering why this is the case and how im going to plan to do all the simulations half with camtasia and half with captivate on Adobe products we use at my work.....
Oh see the below link around slide 42 to get an example of what im saying here..
http://www.blcstudents.com.au/tutorials/col-fill/colour-fill.htm
or you can check out
http://www.blcstudents.com.au/tutorials/wp/?page_id=35 its at the bottom of the page.
Anyway im worried about what to be doing at this point, I got captivate for adobe products, not for other products and programs out there.
Cheers for any help,
Ben.

Just out of curiosity, are you able to modify the mouse cursor AFTER doing the captures once you're back in Captivate editing them?
For example, are you able to select the mouse for the slides where it added this wierd square cursor, then choose the normal arrow cursor from the Properties tabl > Options accordion?
Or are you able to delete the mouse from these same slides, and add it back again, and then select the cursor you want?
Have you found that there is nothing you can do to change this particular cursor on these slides?

Not Capturing When Recording Mainframe

I have recently upgraded to version 4 - and I now find that
trying to record a 3270 emulator command/key-board driven window
impossible. Only the first window is captured - subsequent key
strokes are not signalling C4 to grab a new slide. I had done this
successfully (although every once in a while it would take more
than one try) in C1 & C2. I trying playing around with the
recording settings, but no luck. Anyone had this issue - I know I
am probably in th minority with the whole mainframe recording in
this windows world...but keeping my fingers crossed

Welcome to our community
There are two things to do here.
1. Report this as a potential bug to Adobe.
Click
here to visit the Wish Form/Bug Reporting Form
2. To work past it for now, press the Print Screen key or
click the mouse each time the screen changes. This should force
Captivate to capture. I know this is a pain and by no means am I
suggesting something along the lines of (well, cut Adobe some
slack. We should just live with things because we know they are
busy), but at least is a workaround until something comes along to
change or correct the behavior.

Newly installed Cap 8 not capturing mouse clicks

Newly installed Captivate 8 is not capturing my mouse clicks. Captivate is set to Training & I have my regular settings selected. I have also worked with the application I am trying to capture before and did not experience any issues. Thoughts?

Hi there,
Please tell which Operating system is it?
If it is Windows, then have you installed the 32 bit version or 64 bit of Captivate?
Again, if it is Windows please try to run it as admin, by right clicking the Captivate launch icon.
Thanks.

Recording does not capture sound from a Video

Hi,
I am creating a full screen recording and part of the
recording is opening a video file (WMV file) but after the
recording when I play-back the file I've notice that the sound that
coming from the video that was opened was not recorded only the
video itself no sound eventhough my speaker is already loud enough.
What do you think is the problem? Thanks.
Eric

Hi Eric
I don't believe Captivate can capture that kind of audio. But
how about a workaround?
Head over to the link below:
http://www.applian.com/sound-recorder
Download and install the FreeCorder application. (It's free!)
Then record the audio separately and just add it to your Captivate
project.
Cheers... Rick

Can not capture from Sony HDV 1080i (recording in 60i)

Hello
We are trying to capture from the above camera to a Mac Dual G5. We are using FinalCutPro 5.1.2. We are using a FireWire 400 cable to connect to the front of the computer (have also tryed back of Cinema Display). The footage was captured in HDV1080/60i, and we have tried the corresponding formats in Easy Setup (Basic, standard, Apple Intermediate).
The problem: we can control the camera from the Log and Capture windows, but when starting capture, no data is coming in, and the program therefor gives up after a few seconds (displaying a no data error message).
We have tried Batch and Now capture. We can log clips, and get the correct time code, but can not capture those clips due to the no data problem.

This is a good workaround for curing your camera recognition problem with FCP (if that's what it is):
First, check that your Easy Setup / Timeline / Camera or Deck Settings are all exactly the same, then making sure your camera or deck is in VTR mode, try to capture again.
FCP uses a different form of QT than iMovie for capturing, so if the camera works in iMovie (or if it's listed in System Profiler) but not FCP, it obviously means your Mac can see the VTR but FCP can't, so you need to do this QuickTime fix.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301852
Follow the instructions carefully and you should have things running in no time - it's quite safe but you must Trash the Receipts AND re-install QT from the link provided.
If the Camera / Deck isn't recognised by iMovie or System Profiler, try resetting the Firewire Bus . . . Turn off the Mac and disconnect the power and all Firewire cables. Leave it for 30 mins then connect back up.
Still not working? Try a different Firewire cable.
Failing all this, try resetting the PMU (Power Management Unit). The method varies from machine to machine, so visit the Apple site and search for it in support.
Don't use iMovie for capturing - it doesn't give you a timecode and that's very important.
Let us know how you get on!

Could be a problem on identification (setting on multiprovider).
Try to execute on transaction RSRT your query
execute + debug
on debug option set "Multiprovider explain"
and report the log in this post.

Excise is not captured in MIRO in Dealer Invoice

In dealer invoice , In PO, for Eg: Basic price : 1000 + vat 200, Total 1200 Rs.
I have changed excise duty values in MIGO . for Eg: Basic price : 900 + Excise 100, Total 1000 Rs.MRP Indicator activated
Excise is not captured in MIRO.
Regards.,
Lakshmanan.S

In case of dealer invoice you will have to change the Tax code in MIRO in your case to get the Excise calculated.
Other way is you take excise credit first with J1IEX clicking MRP indicator and properly takin excise credit, after that MIRO will automatically take excise in to accounts.

Excise Duty not capturing in invoice

Dear all,
All the configuration have been maintained for Excise duty, while doing PO the excise duty is capturing even doing MIGO and excise captured but during Invoice (MIRO) the excise is not capturing.
Regards,
Raziq

Hi Raziq,
When the Excise is Caputred at MIGO system post RE23A Part 1 entry, where as for RG23A Part II entry you need to execute J1IEX.
In this system will show the Excise Duty and it will post the below accounting Entry:
BED Dr
eCess Dr
HECess Dr
CENVAT Clearing Account Cr
Now when you wil do MIRO system will reverse the CENVAT Clearing Entry by creating three lines
Please let me know if you are following above approach or not.

BED is not capturing in the J1IIN

Dear Experts,
I have created commercial invoice ,in which i have entered only BED (Condition type JMAN) manually (Rest of the duties like Cess and Ecess will appear automatically)then i created excise invoice with the help of J1IIN, while creating excise invoice manually entered BED is not capturing and not generating accounting entry also for BED but the other duties (Cess Ecess) is capturing properly in the excise invoice and entries also generating.
i have check the other commercial document also, wherever we entered BED manually the same problem we are facing and if BED is coming automatically, where we are not facing the problem.
So please help me to resolve the issue urgently
Shibu

Sir,
,i have gone through the path as you suggested, where JMAN is not maintained. the thing is that we are not able to maintain JMAN in Tax Defualt information because we are entering occasionally (JMAN ) manual excise duty. mostly the excise duty is coming from preceding document. if i change the JEXP and maintain JMAN in Tax Defualt Information, i hope i will face problem if BED is coming from preceding document automatically, in that case i have to change again the JEXP instead of JMAN.
Please give me help for resolving the isse

Material Fright Group related Condition record is not captured in billing

Dear all,
As i am creating Credit Memo with respect to Credit memo Request (Sales Order) and my freight condition record is maintained in Material Freight Group level. This field is there in Sales Order but when i am creating Credit memo it is not captured and also i am unable to find Material Freight Group field in Billing Document.
Please help urgently.
Regards,
Chirag Pedhadiya.

Hi...
But why we have to write this code in User Exit. Is this Standard SAP Problem ??
I just wonder that in Delivery Related Billing Document it is finding Material Freight Group related Condition record in Billing means in Billing Pricing it is getting value in Material Freight Group filed and set this condition record value, though there is no any field like MFRGR (Material Freight group) in Billing Tables VBRK or VBRP.
So for Order related Billing Document only why this filed is not getting any value in Pricing ??
Thnaks,
