Captivate 3 and Windows 7 Compatability

I have Captivate 3 and am consideing buying a new PC and want to know if I'll have compatability issues between 3 and Windows 7.   If Captivate 3 and Windows 7 can't play nicely together, will Captivate 4 work?  Thanks

Hi there
I wouldn't expect Captivate 3 to work with Windows 7 with no issues. However, even if you were to upgrade to Captivate 4 you would still stand the chance of seeing issues. Particularly if Windows 7 is the 64 bit version. If the computer RAM is advertised as more than 3 gig (4 gig RAM systems are very common) you can pretty much count on the fact that Windows 7 will be 64 bit.
Captivate may work or it may have issues. It works just dandy for some folks using Windows 7 64 bit. For others, it's nothing but trouble. The bottom line is that Your Mileage May Vary.
Cheers... Rick

  • CS4 and Windows 8 compatibility

    Has anyone successfully installed CS4 on Windows 8? I am currently using Windows XP and received a pop up saying Microsoft are no longer releasing updates for XP after August and I am entitled to a free download of Windows 8. I am trying to decide whether to do this but risk losing my use of CS4 which I really don't want to do. Any advice much appreciated as not sure whether to just continue with XP. Thanks in advance.

    If you search Google using the terms "CS4 and Windows 8 compatibility" you can probably find various results from both Adobe and Microsoft that should give you some idea of how much of a gamble you might face in changing your OS.
    In my own experience, a change in OS has yet to be a positive experience... while most people loved XP in its day, I suffered years of poor performance with it as an upgrade from the moment it was installed and regretted doing it.  Maybe you've had better experience and aren't as shy of it as I am.

  • Problems with captivate 8 and windows 8

    I´m using captivate 8 and windows 8, and I am having problems with the visualization and publication of my projects. For visualization, there is a message of an error with syntax of the files ou directory, and nothing happens. For publication, I can´t see the project published in the browser. It opens only a text file, with the codes. Is there anyone thar can help me with that?

    Acrobat 8 is not certified for Win7, particularly the x64 version. If you got the installation to go, the first step is to update AA8 to at least AA8.2. The x64 with XP required at least AA8.2 and I suspect that has not changed. I would suggest updating to the latest, either from the help menu (until no more updates are available) or by downloading the updates from the adobe.com>downloads page. For the latter, download ALL updates after your current version and install them in ORDER. They are not cummulative in most cases. You only need to reboot after the final update. The updates may get you going. If not, you may simply have to upgrade to AA9 or search for what others have been able to do in your situation.

  • Satellite T230 and Windows 8 compatibility

    Hello,
    My Satellite T230 (PST4AE) is not listed on Windows 8 compatibility's page. Is it not compatible at all?

    The Win 8 matrix lists only the notebook models which were delivered and preinstalled with Win 7 and will get Win 8 driver via Win 8 Update Assistant.
    But the list does not mean that not listed notebooks are not Win 8 capable
    Here is a official information from Microsoft about Windows 8 system requirements
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/system-requirements
    If you want to run Windows 8 on your PC, here's what it takes:
    Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster with support for PAE, NX, and SSE2 (more info)
    RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) (32-bit) or 2 GB (64-bit)
    Hard disk space: 16 GB (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)
    Graphics card: Microsoft DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM driver

  • Problem With Captivate 4 and Windows 8

    Hi,
    I've a problem with Captivate 4 on Windows 8 projects :
    The mouse is not tracked.
    I've applied the last patch for this version (11/15/2011).
    Is there another patch for this ?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi there
    I know this will come off as sounding snarky, but please know it's honestly not intended that way,
    Windows 8?
    I never was able to make Captivate 4 run successfully on Windows 7. So I'm not the least bit surprised to hear it has issues with Windows 8!
    Personally, I'm thinking you are due for an upgrade to Captivate if you want it to work on Windows 8. But then again, I'm not even certain if Captivate 6 is Windows 8 compatible.

  • Acrobat 9 Standard and Windows 7 Compatibility

    We are in the process of planning a migration of company computers to Windows 7 and Office 2010.  We have a large number of Acrobat users with various versions with many using v9, just upgraded last year.  Microsoft's "Windows 7 Compatibility Center" says Acrobat v9 Standard is "Compatible, No Action Required".  We are finding that this may not be the case, specifically with printing.  I have not been able to locate any information on the Adobe site stating compatibility of older versions, only that Acrobat X is compatibite.
    Is anyone having success with Windows 7 and Acrobat 9 Standard?  Does anyone know where to find Adobes compatibility statement for older Acrobat version?
    Thanks!

    Acrobat 9.0 is not Windows 7 compatible. However, I think it was compatible somewhere around 9.2.3. If you upgrade to Acrobat 9.4.3 you should have no issues. I ran with that setup for many months using Acrobat Pro.

  • ODI 10.1.3.4 and Windows 7 compatability

    Is there an issue with ODI 10.1.3.4 and Windows 7?
    Edited by: dalew7777 on Sep 13, 2010 10:39 AM

    OK, figured out the compatability issue. Just had to add Windows 6.1 to the oraparam.ini file and I was able to install the application on a Windows 7 box.
    Now I am getting an error when trying to create the connection. It says that the login already exists. Well of course it exists...I am just trying to create this connection string on this other pc. The connection string I am trying to create on the machine was already created on another machine and I am just trying to use this same one on the Windows 7 box. This connection tested OK I just need to save it on the new machine. Anyone know what I am doing wrong here?

  • Captivate 5 and Windows 7

    I need to purchase a new computer and wanted to check if the known install issues with Windows 7 have been fixed?
    Thanks

    @Lieve.  No, I'm not mixing Cp4x and Cp5x. There were a number of installation issues with Captivate 5x and 6x versions on WinVista and Win7. 
    These are things like:
    Conflicts with some Corporate SOE setups, especially those involving virtualised My Documents folders and Roaming Profiles.
    Some users unable to install Cp to Run As Administrator due to restrictive corporate policies on end user privileges.
    Crashing on first launch after install due to previous install Preferences folder.
    Crashing on install or first launch after install due to corrupted fonts.
    Missing Microsoft C++ Redistributable software (or wrong version thereof).
    Conflicts with other Adobe apps resident on the system (especially CS5 apps).
    Many of these issues still affect Cp6 but I've yet to find out whether any of them still apply to Win7.

  • Any known issues with Flash player 9 and windows 2003 compatibility?

    Hi guys..
    Is there any known compatibility problem with running flash
    applications
    on Windows 2003 Server?
    My application runs just so well with Windows XP
    yet it throws a 2015 bitmap error
    when it is being run on the windows 2003 server.
    (Not quite often but often enough. the only difference is the
    operating
    system)
    Is there any known issue about this?
    Or could there be any compatibility problem with flash player
    and
    windows 2003?
    Any hints would be deeply appreciated...
    Thank you...

    Hyperion 32-bit Web Apps are fully compatible with Essbase 64-bit. Same with 32-bit Essbase client.

  • Norton identity safe with firefox 5 and windows 7 compatibility?

    Will my Norton Identity Safe work with Firefox 5 and Windows 7?

    This is an old thread and the question was asked in relation to Firefox 22.
    We are now on Firefox 23.0.1
    If anyone has a problem using Norton with Firefox 23.0.1 or Firefox 23 please start a new thread. Use [/questions/new]
    mikeymack2002 says above
    ''1 temporarily disable Firefox auto update''
    '' 2 download the new version of FIREFOX ...''
    '' just simply that it doesn't like the new Firefox update at present,''
    If I understand that correctly mikeymack2002 is saying Norton does not like the Firefox updater. If that is the case it is a separate problem.Please start a new thread.
    I do not wish to go off topic and continue discussing Firefox 23 and Norton here but will just add some information before locking this old and solved thread.

  • Captivate 4 and Windows 7

    I'm looking to possibly move to Windows 7 to do some 'testing'  - any one done this yet?  Any issues with Captivate 4 that you have run across?

    Hi all,
    Just as a point of reference:
    I am running Windws 7 64-bit and Captivate is working. I did read the entries here and some blog entries before starting so I knew there might be issues I would face.
    I installed the trial version.
    I set it to Run as Administrator, and in compatibility mode for Win XP sp3. (b/c Administrator mode is advised, and using compatibility mode just in case)
    Ran it, and immeditately checked for updates.
    Installed the latest patch (b/c this was advised when Vista users experienced some problems).
    Ran it.
    I was able to record new projects and audio, and read in Captivate 3 projects. Also exported to swf and avi. So far, all seems fine.

  • Captivate 6 and Flash 9 compatibility

    Hi,
    We have found that published Captivate 6 executables are not running on our WinXP PCs that have Flash 9 installed. The files do have the Flash 9 compatibility option selected when they are published. We've found that after installing Flash 11, the files will then run. The problem is we have a lot of PCs in the business all over Australia and we do not want to start a Flash 11 rollout just yet. Is there a setting that we are missing or is it only compatible with a 'mid' version of Flash 9 and up? (ie. v9.03 and up and we might have 9.02?)
    Thanks
