Captivate 4 - quiz errors

When previewing the quiz section of my CBT program it always indicates at least one question was responded in error.  I have checked the settings for that question by still comes up that the correct answer is incorrect.  When I delete that question a different question that previously answered correctly now will say that a correct answer is incorrect.  No matter how many times I delete and change the forms of the questions - mult choice, T/F, etc. it still happens.  Any suggestions?

Noel,
I totally understand your frustration.  I too, have resorted to the copy slide by slide method.  But I have done other things to deter freezes.
I have had to do several things:
1.  Are you working from server?  If so, start working on your document from your desktop. I then transfer my day's worth of saved documents back to the server to be backed up.
2.  Save, save and save.  I save a NEW document (File>Save As) every 15 minutes or so, depending upon how much work I've done to my project. (That way, if it does crash, I've only lost 15 minutes and have an uncorrupted file to go back to.
3.  Keep your file size down.
     a. That means saving your pictures at their actual size in the document.  (Are you finding that when you insert a picture, you get the screen prompt that asks you to crop or reduce the picture size? - Then your pictures are too big.)
     b.  What screen capture size are you using?  Use the smallest possible size.  800x600 has worked well for me and also makes it easier for the end user to view the project (they don't have to scroll up and down to see the screen.)
4.  Delete unused items.  In the library window, click the Select Unused Items icon (this will select all unused items from your documents) and then click the Trash can icon.  (Just because you delete a picture or audio clip from a slide, Captivate does NOT remove it from the document until you delete from the library.  This takes up a LOT of space).
5.  Start a Freeze/Error log.  I have started a log to remind me what I was doing at the time of the freeze up to try to pinpoint the cause.  At this time it appears random.  Maybe you can find a common link.
Adobe has not given me any other suggestions or fixes.  The above steps are the only that have kept my sanity and freezes to a minimum.
Good Luck!

  • Error when posting captivate quiz results

    I would like to posting Captivate quiz results to Acrobat.com. I created an account, but when I click Post Results and log in, I get a 'Send' button option. When I select 'Send', the message 'Unknown Error' appears and the results do not get posted.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks

    I am also still having the same problem, so it looks like this still hasn't been fixed.
    Posting results worked fine but lately everyone is getting the unknown error which is embarrassing when you are pushing directors to complete this only to be told it isn't working and wasted their time.
    Sort it out Adobe!

  • Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer - Error in Results

    Dear Sir
    I  don't understand why I got the results below. All questions were reflected as 'Total Skipped' when all was answered.
    Your inputs would be very much appreciated.
    Thanks & regards...

    So I figured out I made a stuipd mistake and mixed up acrobat.com and adobe.com. I kept trying to connect to Adobe.com, NOT acrobat.com.
    Once I connect to Acrobat.com (and made an ID) it worked.
    I now can connect to Acrobat.com.
    However, I still am unable to see my results.
    If I try to do a quiz from my local machine I am prompted with the "Post Results" button at the end.  When I go to production I do not want to have this button, I would rather have the quiz automatically posted.  For now, this will work for the testing phase I have working on.
    When I run my quiz in IE, IE hangs when I press Post Results and put my name and password in.  It never completes.  I have to kill the process.
    When I run the quiz from File > Preview > In Web Browser (or F12) it seems to work.  I get prompted with my ID I put my info in and it says it has been posted, but I never see any results.  This is similar to another post I saw here...

    Then I saw another post that said you need to modify the flash settings on the machine where you are posting.  You can do this via a URL link...
    http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l
    When I went to this link the first time I only specified the actually acrobat.com.  This didn't seem to help.  But them I specified the actually .swf file.  This made things appear to work.  I *was* able to press post, put login info in and then submit the info.  This worked without having the do the preview from within Captivate.  But I still do not have any data within the Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer.
    If I do get some results somehow, I would still like to make the quiz such that the username and password are not prompted at the end and that the results are sent to acrobat.com automatically.

  • Captivate freezing Error Message

    Hi,
    Captivate continues to freeze randomly through projects. I get the error "A fatal error has occured and the application is being terminated. Adobe Captivate has tried to save all your work in the respective project folders as ".cpbackup" files. Please restart Adobe Captivate."  I restart, yet I continue to face this error. This has happened to me 3 times already and it's very frustrating. I basically have to start over on my projects. My projects are saved to My Documents folder. I've tried clearing the cache.
    I went through uninstalling and reinstalling Captivate but I got this error message after it finished: This is on a Windows 7 pc.

    Thank you,

    Exit Code 6 means that some of the supporting components for the application are not installed correctly.
    Reason : may be they are already installed on your machine or they didnt got uninstalled when you tried to uninstall the application last time.
    Try launching the application, it should work.
    now for the error that you get with the project.
    Please try to create a test project and see if you get the same error on that project as well.
    if you do not get this error with the new test project, then try to copy all the slides of the original project into a new blank project, save it with a different name and then check.
    Thanks

  • I want to integrate captivate quiz with my flex application.

    I am new to flex. I want to integrate flex application with captivate quiz. I could not find good documentation for this. Can any one please give me some url to find good documentation or some example. Thank you

    I'm interested in using FLEX to create a widget that I load INTO a Captivate project. How would that change this approach?
    Also, I've attempted to build a Flex 4 project (sdk 4.1) with this code, and it's generating the following errors:

    I've created the var_text.swf by creating a CP5 project that has the variable with a pre-defined value, and a button to set a new value.
    Unfortunately, the project doesn't appear to load due to the errors present.
    If you could find time to post a couple sample files, it may help us beginners!

  • Can you submit a User Variable instead of the Captivate Quiz Score variable to an LMS?

    I am attempting to create two quizzes in a course that has branching.  I know that Captivate only allows for one quiz if you are using Question type slides, but I am using a simulation to check the knowledge of a process.  I want to report one of the simulation completions depending on which branch the user goes to (different branches for different products).  How or is it even possible to submit user variables in place of the Captivate Quiz Score variable, the time in the course variable, and the Pass or Fail status to an LMS?

    Sadly, I am using Captivate 5.5.  I was thinking it should be possible to use Javascript to be able to take a specific variable and submit it to the LMS in place of Captivate's Quiz variables.  I just don't know Javascript well enough to know how to do that.

  • Problem with registering Captivate Quiz score in LMS

    We are using Integrity e-Learning’s WBT manager for our
    LMS. We have been using Captivate (SWF files) for several months to
    show simulations for software. Generally we are quite happy with
    the software.
    We have been able to easily create a quiz (a Captivate
    generated SWF file) and access it through the LMS (using a HTML
    frameset), unfortunately we are having trouble passing the
    numerical score the quiz generates to the LMS.
    When a student takes a Captivate Quiz (bound into a SWF
    file), the final score displays on the final frame of the SWF file,
    but is not getting passed to the LMS. All the other data seems to
    be fine. So far we are only viewing status using the Lesson
    Progress Report, which indicates “no score (n/a)”. In
    this case we are embedding the SWF file into a HTML page contained
    in a frameset.
    We have been able to get a score successfully passed to the
    LMS if we link directly to the .swf file, bypassing HTML
    altogether, unfortunately we also get a warning about using Flash
    Player and multiple warnings about downloading the
    “aicc_int.asp” file.
    I have read through:
    “Output Options in Captivate” by Andrew Chemey
    (Parts 1, 2, 3, and 4)
    “Exploring Quizzing in Macromedia Captivate” by
    Mark Fletcher
    “Integrating Captivate-Generated Learning Objects into
    WBT Manager, Part 1 and 2” by Carol Fallon
    Has anyone had this problem and solved it?
    TPK

    Please contact me at [email protected] I have many
    examples of Captivate passing scores sucessfully back to WBT
    Manager. So hopefully I can help you figure out what is going on.

  • Adobe Captivate 6 Error when publishing

    Help!  I having trouble publishing a training that my employees can view.  When they open the project they are getting the first image here that is essentially blank.  I have attempted to reduce the size and save to different folders etc. but nothing seems to work. 

    Hi there,
    Could you tell me the complete version of Captivate (Help > About Adobe Captivate).  6.0.1.240
    Which version of Adobe Reader or Acrobat are they using?  Adobe Reader XI
    Can you publish this locally on your system (not to network drive directly), check force republish option also, and are you able to view it on your end?  I can pull up the file from my computer that is saved in the same drive that the agents are attempting to pull up.  But, I am not sure if it is viewing for me because I have it on my system.

  • Generate Report Troubles with Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer

    I'm new to Captivate 5 and am trying to utilize the Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer.
    I've enabled report for my project to Acrobat.com and configured as instructed in the online help.  The Post Result button appears on the Summary page and appears to work for the two colleagues taking the quiz.  But when I click the Generate Report button in Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer, I get the message "Data is not present on local file system, downloading course data," but nothing occurs - no course data appears from the colleagues who are helping me test the quiz.
    I'm able to sign in to the Quiz Results Analyzer and it does display the organization, department and course name, but no course data (see image below).
    What am I doing incorrectly that keeps this from generating a course report?
    Any help will be deeply appreciated.

    Vish,
    Your solution worked at first.  I went in, took the course, and then went into Analyzer and was able to Generate Report and look at my stats.  However, I had a colleague take the course.  She did and posted the results and received a "successful" posting message.  Then, I went back into Analyzer and clicked the Generate Report button to see how the system worked when there was new learner data.  A "Checking for new data" played for a half hour before I finally gave up.
    I know that you were able to reproduce this issue where in clicking the Generate Report a second time brings up the loading animation that stays forever and that you were investigating the issue, but I thought I should post here just in case anyone else has a solution.
    Thanks,
    Jeff 

  • Identifying Questions in Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyser

    Hi All,
    We have seen people requesting for identifying the Question from with in Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyser. In what way do you think Question needs to be reperesented within Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyser?
    Will it useful if we show the actual thumbnail of the question itself?
    Or just showing the Question text will suffice?
    Thanks,
    Vikram

    Maybe you'd be better off turning off the shuffling of answers (given that it fouls up the reliability of the variable representing what you want) and use Question Pools instead.
    This would allow you to get some randomisation of the questions (which is what the answer shuffling is sort of trying to accomplish) but you'd be tracking actual questions.  You could have a number of variations of the same question in the pool.
    Does that get you any closer to your goal?

    What do you mean by "adjust"? Editing of Photoshop images should be done in Photoshop.
    Sure, it's possible to save individual layers from an image in Photoshop as inidvidual files in a variety of formats, but what's the point? You could just as easily import the layered file, then copy/paste it into a new layer for each layer in the image and use layer visibility to control which ones show. I don't think that will do you a lot of good, though, if you use adjustment layers or opacity controls on the layer in Photoshop.
