Captivate 4 will not record software simulation with Windows 7

Hi,
I have a Dell M6400 labptop, 32-bit, operating system is Windows 7. The patch I downloaded through Help->Updates-> on Captivate fixed
my microphone problem, but did not help the software simulation problem.
I get as far in the process as having the screen setup with the red bounding box and controls visible. After choosing automatic I then click on the record button. There is a shutter sound, but it won't save anything. I get back to Captivate and it has not recorded anything.
I then installed it on my main computer which is 32-bit and uses windows xp. I did exactly the same thing as my above mentioned laptop and it did the software capture beautifully. So it must be the Windows 7.
I am disappointed that the patch didn't fix that. Will one be coming soon that will?

Okay, I have been trying to use Photoshop CS4 Extended as my software simulation. It refused to work on Captivate 4
numerous tries, but now for some reason it is working fine. The only thing that I did different was to go into Photoshop's
preference-->performance--> and the openGL was unchecked and I checked it. I think that Photoshop had a problem and turned off the
the openGL. I have the latest update for my graphic card, so I'm not sure why it affected the GPU.
I didn't think to try other programs, but now I have, and they are working fine too.
It could be that the problem was with Photoshop instead of Captivate.

Will not load software updates with a warning

Upon starting windows a box comes up that stes now loading mozilla updates, mozilla will resume ....then a window comes up that says it it downloading the update and that it is critical. Mozilla will start but the update download keeps running in the background and never connects. Unable to open the help link in this window.

If you have problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.<br />
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.

* Uninstall your current Firefox version.

HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 Premium will not fax from computer with Windows 8

My printer worked great on Win XP and I could fax directly from the printer or from the computer. I installed Windows 8 32 bit (I'm running an older system that works fine for everything I use it for -thank you very much), and downloaded the latest greatest HP driver & software for Win 8 32 bit. Everything works perfectly, except faxing from the computer.
If I run the fax test from the printer, the fax test PASSES. If I run the fax test from the computer, the fax test PASSES.
If I put documents in the printer feeder and use the printer fax functions, it faxes beautifully.
It is only when I fax from the computer, the screen pops up with a status of spooling, then the status turns to Cancelled every time.
It always worked on Win XP.
The FAX printer and FAX driver for the FAX printer showed up in Control Panel automatically when I installed the updated drivers/software from HP. All the properties on the FAX printer look good.
I tried a usb connection, and a network ethernet connection, with the same results.
Printing and scanning all work fine. I really like this printer, and I would like it even more if I could figure out how to get it to fax a document from the computer.
When I say fax from the computer, I mean opening a document, saying Print, selecting Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910, filling in the fax information page, selecting my cover page options, and pressing the send fax. All just like I used to do before I upgraded to Win 8. When I hit send fax, that is when I get the popup that the fax is spooling, then it goes to cancelled. No error codes are displayed, no clues as to why, no nothing. If I print the document and put it in the printer document feeder, I can fax it using the printer display screen no problem.
Very bizarre.
This question was solved.

Alright, I spoke with some of the engineers and they suggested the next few steps. First, here is a thread on an MS forum about removing a driver in an alternate fashion.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc730875.aspx
Another thing to note is that in Win8 you can easily access the Command Prompt by hitting the windows key and typing “command prompt.”
Additionally, I will PM you some further steps on removing the vestiges of the software from the back-end of your PC. You will HAVE to be sure to follow those instructions to the letter.
Do these two things and let me know what happens after you install the printer again from the direct download link I have already provided above.
Let me know and have a great day!

OfficeJet 6600 will not install on computer with WIndows 8.

I just purchased an ASUS laptop and already own an HP Officejet 6600. I tried today to install the printer on the ASUS but I receive the error that it will only run on XP, VISTA and Windows 7. What can I do to make the two connect and install the printer? My printer is in perfect condition and I do not want to buy a different one.

Hi,
Ensure the printer is powered on and connected with a USB or to the same network as your PC.
Then download and follow this tool, it will obtain and launch the latest installation for your oerating system:

Bootcamp trouble and iMac will not read DVD-R with Windows

Hi,
I have a late 2011(or maybe early 2012) imac that came with OS X Lion but it's been upgraded to Mountain Lion.. I'd like to bootcamp it and install Windows 8.
I've been trying this for a long time now and then i discovered my imac was not bootable with a usb drive.. Bootcamp restarts and then there is a black which says 'bootable disk not found. insert and press any button' (something like that)... So... i dicided to try with a burned windows 8 dvd-r but when i burn an image to it in disk utility, it says 'medium write error' and the disk pops out... I already have all the windows drivers downloaded.... This is supposed to be a problem with the operating system... As you guys can see, i am having a lot of problems..
Any solutions?
Thanks in advance!

I tried using Finder to open files but as they are greyed out this would not work.
That sounds very strange - like it's a disk format issue.
What is the disk format of the Sony DVD+R you are using? (Do a 'Get Info' when the disc is mounted on your Desktop.)

IPod will not update in iTunes with Windows Vista

Every time I connect my ipod to my computer, my computer locks up and it does not update. The only way I can even connect my ipod is to use manual update.

iTunes does not yet support Windows Vista. There are numerous problems running iTunes on it. The latest release of iTuens 7.1 fixed some of them but not all.

Captivate will not record ALL screen movements

I have been using Camtashia and recently move to another
company where they want to start using Captivate. I just bought
Captiveate and I am getting very aggrevated! Captivate will not
record all my movements with the mouse or when a screen changes. It
appears that everything is driven by an actual mouse click. Only
when I move my mouse around and then click will it actuall record
the "action".
Please tell me there is a way for Captivate to record all
mouse movements, keystrokes, changes in applications just as I see
it when I am actually doing the recording.
I dont need all this fancy highlighting and project wizards,
I just simply want Captivate to record EXACTLY what I do and see
while I am recording.
PLEASE HELP!

Hi Tmy8ster and welcome to our community
No doubt you are frustrated if you are expecting Captivate to
behave like Camtasia. Yes, both create similar output, but both
accomplish it in entirely different ways.
Perhaps the following link to a thread where I attempted to
explain it will help:

Captivate 4 will not open with latest Flash Player installed?!

Hi,
I've seen this question already, but there wasn't any working answer.
When I launch Captivate, I get the warning box saying flash player "is not installed or its an older version" - with an OK button which just launches IE to get the player, and closes captivate...
I had beta player 10.1, so obviously it isn't older - but still, I uninstalled it, got the version (10.0.45.2) on the adobe page captivate sent me too and... Captivate still will not work!
I've unistalled the plugin twice, rebooted, checked the version and still Captivate will not launch...still the same message
So how on earth can I even launch Captivate?? Do I really have to roll back to flash 9 or something?? I wouldn't mind, but I don't even use IE!
Any help appreciated (esp. from Adobe!)
Cheers.

I just ran into this problem with Captivate as well. I uninstalled Flash Player 10.1 by going here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
I then downloaded an archived Flash Player here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html
It seems the main installer does not incorporate the Active-X version of Flash that Internet Explorer needs. There should be several Windows installers in the download. For example, I used Flash Player 10. The following Windows files were in the package:
•    flashplayer10r45_2_win.exe
•    flashplayer10r45_2_winax.exe
•    flashplayer10r45_2_win_sa.exe
Install the first one and second. The second file is the Active-X Flash version (I’m thinking “winax” means Windows Active-X), which Captivate needs to run. I don’t think you need to install the last file (“win_sa”, I’m thinking the “sa” stands for stand-alone).

HT1222 Having problem with Notes at time will not record dictation on iPhone?

Having problem with Notes at time will not record dictation on iPhone?

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
If that doesn't help have your phone examined by an apple technician. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

Recording Software Simulation using Epiphan VGA2USB

Hi,
Can someone help me with an answer for the below question:
I have one question : How can we Record Software Simulation in Assessment mode in the following scenario :
1.laptop 1 has Adobe Captivate installed and is the source recording machine
2.laptop 2 has the software for which the recording and simulation needs to be done but this does not have captivate.
3. We use Epiphan's VGA2USB device to perform screen capture from Laptop 2 to Laptop 1 using Epiphan Capture Tool software.
My Question is : How can we get the clicks done on Laptop 2 be recorded using Captivate on Laptop 1, so I can capture the recording in Assessment Mode.
Thanks
Raghu

Hi Raghu,
Firstly, we do not recommend to record a different machine using a remote client, as there could be issues with latency.
If both machines are in same domain/intranet, you can use the Remote Desktop Share and while recording choose an application to record from list as RDP Service, readjust the recording window and start capturing.
Captivate would capture the events from Application listed which in this case would be RDP, I have not personaly used VGA2USB, if it can recreate a similar scenario you can test that as well.
Thanks,
Anjaneai

Hello @Pistaba1975,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I have read your post on how the microphone on your notebook is enabled, but will not record any audio on Skype. I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
Are you able to record audio using a different program on your computer? Were you able to record audio from Skype in the past?
In the meantime, I recommend following the steps in this document on Resolving microphone problems (Windows 8). This should help enable the audio-in when using the microphone.
Additionally, I also suggest following this resource on Microphone Troubleshooter to ensure that your Skype software is communicating the audio being transmitted to your audio-in device.
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, as well as the requested information above. I look forward to your reply!

Audio track will not record - picture is fine PE9

PE9 audio track will not record. Tried in several projects - audio gets through to computer - but the audio is not being recorded. Help please.

Hi ATR
Was transferring a client's DVD-R into my Adobe PE9 to do some editing requested by client.
The audio from the DVD was coming through clearly on my computer speakers but when I finished tranferring I stopped recording and discovered the video track was fine but there was no audio track.
Tried recording said DVD into some of my other files on PE9 but same thing.
Since posting my cry for help I uninstalled PE9 and reinstalled it.
This appears to have fixed the problem as I am now transferring client's DVD-R once again.
A quick check after a few minutes revealed the audio track is now being recorded with no problems!
Thanks for your interest.
Kind regards
David

I want to sync my Voice Memos but iTunes 10.5 will not let me even with the "include voice memos" checkbox selected.

I want to sync my Voice Memos but iTunes 10.5 will not let me even with the "include voice memos" checkbox selected. As well Ive deselected all the music in itunes so when I sync there will be none on my phone but itunes also ignores this request and puts purchased music back on. I do not have autofill selected. Also wondering where the backup of my iphone 4s is located on my hard disk. Any help greatly appreciated.

Sorry thats itunes 11.5

Itunes 11.1.5 will not sync new apps with iPhone 5 iOS 7.0.6 and gives grayed out "install" no message? How does one work around this?

Itunes 11.1.5 (MacBook Pro,OS 10.6.8) will not sync new apps with iPhone 5 iOS 7.0.6 and gives grayed out "install" no message? How does one work around this?

Just reboot your laptop... While its rebooting try to reboot your phone also by holding the home and power buttonn for 10-15 seconds...When your phone is turned off try to connect it to iTunes and it will recognize your phone in recovery mode.
If you have the .ipsw file for iOS 7.0.6 saved in your desktop then in itunes press shift and click on Restore.
Select the ipsw file and let it restore.
If you dont have it downloaded then simply click on restore.
I hope it works
Cheers !
