Captivate 5 Crashing while opening previously edited file from the same day!

I have today been working on a simple Captivate 5 file. At the time of crashing it had around 9 slides and a one question quiz as I hadnt done much work on it. Im running Captivate 5 on a Windows XP 32bit machine with 4gb RAM and a capable processor. I tried to open a seperate project alongside the one mentioned in order to take a few slides from it. When doing so Captivate crashed. I tried to re open the original document ignoring the second file and got an error message. Some details are captured below. It wouldnt let me take the full detail for some reason but the file it was reporting on is below as its the version of Captivate im running etc.
I rebooted my machine and reopened the original file no problem. Again tried to open the second file and the same occured. I then tried another reboot only this time, and ever since, it will no longer open the original file which was fine. I have the files in my dropbox and used a remote connection to check these files on my Mac at home. They opened in Captivate 5 there without problem. I managed both files so know that the files are ok. It has to be to do with the installation on my Windows machine. I have run all of the available updates and had no joy.
I should point out that Captivate still works for new projects. I can just not open existing ones.
Can anyone offer any advice on how I may fix this? Its driving me crazy as im up against it with deadlines and this hasnt helped me much today.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
James

Hello Frame Users
If you are using Framemaker 10 on Windows 7 64 bit machine and encountering following issues:
1. Framemaker 10 Crashes while opening old Framemaker files made in previous versions
2. After the crash, not able to launch Framemaker 10 any more
Then please do following:
1. Un-install Framemaker 10 and clean the machine
2. Re-install Framemaker 10
3. Import old files rather than opening in Framemaker 10.
Please let me know if this works for anybody, also share any other resolution if there is any.

Clean the machine, means, clean the locations where framemaker components gets installed in the machine.
How are you cleaning the Registry?
And what about:
While opening old .fm (binary) files or old .mif files?
And which old Frame versions?
From what operating system platforms?

I have design standard with creative cloud, I have installed this on 2 computers, my office and home which I was told was allowed, I have just tried to open an indesign file from the office at home and and error message said that this was created with a newer version? they are the same versions and both are up to date, I was asked this morning to put in my adobe id email and password to connect to CC which I have never been asked to do before, can anyone help?

what's your home version (click help>about) and was that just a warning so you were able to open the file?

Every time I open a New File from the File Menu and I open it all of my desktop items are in it. What's up with that?

This is configured in Finder preferences under the General icon. You can make some changes to that behavior.

Opening a pdf file from the internet.

Everytime I try to open a pdf file from the internet a window pops up and tells me that my adobe reader has a problem or gives me a blank page. I have ie 10, adobe reader XI and adobe acrobat 8 pro. All this is on win 7. When I installed the acrobat 8 pro it could not find the adobepdf.dll. I searched the disc, and tried to direct the installation to it but it would not accept it. What can I do to correct this issue?

Will I be able to open InDesign CS6 files from the latest CC version?

Considering Cloud purchase and want to check compatibility. Will I be able to open InDesign CS6 files from the latest CC version? Thanks for any advice on this.

You can open files in CC from CS6 and earlier.
Due to updates to the text engines you might notice a text reflow - note that text won't reflow until it's interacted with.

Looks like this particular file is not transferring to the SAP work directory.
Could you please check and suggest us as to how to fix it.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
We verified your OSS notes it's not relevant to us Because our issue is while opening the PDF aatchement it is not transferring to my SAP Work Directory because of that reason we are getting the KPRO error. When I'm opening the other PDF files it's transferring to my SAP Work Directory and it's automatically open without any issue.
Please check and suggest.

I apparently got stung with the Adobe flash virus. Now I cannot open any .pdf files from the internet.

I apparently got stung with the Adobe flash virus and now I cannot open any Adobe .pdf files from the internet. Fix?

Go to F_Secure's Flashback Removal Tool web page, download their Flashback trojan detection/removal tool, and follow the instructions you find there.
Also install the latest java update which also tries to remove these trojans.
Java for OS X Lion 2012-003
And only download the adobe flash plugin from the adobe site.
Update:
Just because you cannot download pdf may not be an indication of the trojan. There's been a number of reports about problems like that with pdf's. Look at the More Like This section on the right side of this page.

When I open an html file from the desktop all I see is source code rather than webpage.

I have tried clearing the cache and reading other questions similar. I have a mac and am opening these files from the desktop, not a server or anything so It's incredibly annoying that firefox wont open them as html files even though that is what they are saved as. Also there is no .txt after them. They are purely .html files.

Try to delete the mimeTypes.rdf file in the Firefox profile folder to reset all file actions.

Firefox 16.0.2 is the last version that works on an Intel Mac with the OS X 10.5 operating system.

Another option to consider is to install the last Firefox 10.0.x ESR version as that version is more recent than the Firefox 16.0.2 version.

Issues opening downloaded docx files from the internet on my mac air...

I have owned my Mac Air for nearly 1.5 yrs and never had an issue, until yestrday.
I can download docx files from the internet no problem, but when I go to open them (after they have saved into my downloads folder) a pop-up window with "convert file from" appears? Alas I can not open any downloaded docx files from the internet/email etc! This is making work very difficult.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

that explains a lot, you didnt mention that critical part before. I upload a lot to FTP sites as well
originals fine.... but thru the server theyre corrupted, .....that narrows everything down.
have you contacted sys admin for the server about this?

You've done a few things wrong. Instead of reading the files with each iteration of the loop, read them once outside. You should just wire the array of paths to the for loop with autoindexing turned on. Then you eliminate the array size and wiring that to the iteration terminal. You don't have autoindexing turned on ofr the output of the for loop so all you get out is the result from the last read.

Can no longer open previous project files in the latest version of FCPX (10.1.1)

In the latest version of FCPX (10.1.1), you can no longer access/open projects from the button in the lower left corner. Clicking on that button now merely brings up an index of clips in the current project's timeline. Why is that? And how do I now access my project library? By the way, clicking File>Open Library does nothing.

You should learn about the changes introduced in 10.1, which are very significant and much for the better.
The most important is the introduction of Libraries.
There is no longer a "project browser". Libraries are the containers of your events and projects, and can be stored anywhere.
The older versions had two buttons - the one you mention was already there, and opens the "Timeline Index", like it already did. The "project browser" does not exist anymore, and therefore the respective button does not exist either.
I suggest you follow some great explanations about the new features here:

I cannot open any .doc files on Firefox from any source such as yahoo mail, blackboard, and UW Catalyst, while I have no problem opening .docx files from the same sites. When then happens, I have to switch to explorer and it's really annoying.

Cannot open Microsoft Word .doc files from any website (.docx are ok)
