Captivate 5 too slow, can I still purchase Captivate 4?

I've found Captivate 5 incredibly and unworkably slow, both on my home PC (E8400 Core 2 Duo, 6GB RAM) and on my work PC (same CPU, 2GB RAM).
It's much slower than Captivate 4 and as I'm working to very tight deadlines, Captivate 5 just won't do.
Can I still purchase Captivate 4 from somewhere.  Really, what I'm looking for is a download purchase since I could really do with having it today rather than buying the disc online and having to wait for it to be delivered (I've used up all 30 days of my Captivate 4  trial and Captivate 5 is just terrible).
Any suggestions would be great.
Cheers,
ROC

I too am running Captivate 5 on a Windows 7 64 bit box. For me, sometimes it's slow and other times it's faster. Personally, I haven't noticed it being faster to use than Captivate 4. In many cases it does seem slower. There are periods where it like "goes to sleep" and after waiting for a while it wakes back up. When it fails to wake up, I kill the process and start Captivate life fresh and it's usually okay for a while.
Cheers... Rick

    i don't have a credit card can i still purchase an album?
    if i can, will the bill of the album be added to my monthly bill?

    I'm not sure what you mean by 'added to my monthly bill', there isn't a 'monthly bill' for iTunes. If you want to download paid-for items from the stores then you need a payment method on your iTunes account e.g. credit card, Paypal (if you are in the US), iTunes gift cards

  • Can I still purchase an earlier version of InDesign/Photoshop?

    I have CS6 on my desktop computer and need to purchase InDesign and Photoshop for my laptop as well. I don't want to purchase the CC version, because it's very frustrating having to save things as idml all the time.
    Can I still purchase CS6?
    If not, is there a way to save my CC files so I can open them in CS6 - as the same file? ie not just creating a new idml file each time. All the re-saving is very tedious!

    CS6 is still available as a perpetual license.

  • Can I still purchase Dreamweaver CS6 as a Student?

    When visiting Student/Teacher purchase page, I see the only version available is the Creative Cloud.
    I can't afford the monthly payments for Dreamweaver and Photoshop.  I used to be able to purchase Adobe Creative Suite as a student and save a lot of money.  Can I still purchase CS6 this way?
    Thanks

  • Can I still purchase Adobe CS6 Master Collection Student and Teacher Edition?

    Hi I was wonder can I still purchase Adobe CS6 Master Collection Student and Teacher Edition? As I am a student and I don't have the money to purchase the the full software for 2 grand. Also I don't want to get the creative cloud as I don't want to be paying say 250 dollars a year for the software.
    Another question is how many devices can I have the software on? As I have a desktop which I will use for heavy work, and a laptop for light work.

  • Can I still purchase gems for my app game

    My iphone recently cannot connect to itunes but I can still change my credit card info in my apple id. So I changed my credit card info to another credit card.
    Can I still purchase gems for my app game even though my phone wont connect to itunes. I did purchase gems and it worked but I am wondering if it was purchased from my old credit card info instead of the new credit card info I just put in from my apple ID.

    Well, what happens now when you try to purchase a gem with your new card info?

  • Purchased iPad 2 last year, can I still purchase apple care?

    My iPad 2 is not yet past the 1 year warranty, can I still purchase Apple Care?

    You'll need to find a boxed retail version either at an Apple Store or online, but as long as you can find one, then yes, you can still register it and get coverage.
    You might even still be able to buy it online, as it seems to still come up as in stock on some stores?

    If i buy an iPad from Amazon can I still purchase apple care?

    How to get AppleCare+
    Purchase AppleCare+ together with your new iPad, and you'll be automatically registered in the plan. Add it to your shopping cart during the checkout process when you purchase your new iPad.
    Or buy it within 30 days of your iPad purchase:
    At an Apple Retail Store (if AppleCare+ is purchased separately from iPad, inspection of iPad and proof of purchase are required.)
    Or call (800) 275-2273 (requires you to run a remote diagnostic and provide proof of purchase)
    Copied from here.

  • If i buy iPhone from verizon can i still purchase apple care

    If I buy my phone from verizon can I still purchase apple care plan from apple?

    You sound really certain about this -- but Apple's current info page for AppleCare+ says "AppleCare+ must be purchased together with new covered equipment." (bottom of this page: http://www.apple.com/support/products/iphone.html )
    And AppleCare isn't one of the "accessories" Verizon seems to let you order with the phone. So wouldn't this mean it's impossible to order it from Verizon and get AppleCare?

  • I bought my MacBook Pro in Mid 2009, Can I still purchase insurance on it?

    I purchased my MacBook Pro in mid 2009 and just yesterday I began having problems with my trackpad.  I have to press down really hard on the trackpad so that I can click something. I didn't spill anything on it and it just happened all of a sudden. I don't have insurance on it can I still purchase it now?

    Do you happen to know how much I would be charged to take it into an Apple Store to have my computer checked out or have my trackpad replaced.  I can't even talk to someone on the phone because just to talk to someone they are charging me $50.

  • Can you still purchase videos with itunes 6??

    Like everyone else I downloaded itunes7, at first I got all error messages, and missing files. I spent 3 hrs. on the phone with Apple technicians and they had me download itunes7 and quicktime separately. Now I can at least open itunes, but that is about it. Itunes played audio but no video, but I went in and disabled the 3D from my video, now the videos play but are fuzzy and freeze. I have a 60GB ipod which I am afraid to sync with my computer. Does that mean if connect my ipod to my computer for synching, that will screw up my ipod?? I tried to uninstall itunes7 and its components and load the itunes cd that came with my ipod itunes 6.01 but it wouldn't work. In my itunes library it doesn't list videos anymore. Only TV shows, music and podcasts? Where did the video listing go? My 60GB ipod was recently purchased with an extended warranty, do you think if I return it and purchase a 80GB with the itunes cd and install that, it might work better? Can you still purchase videos if I manage to somehow get back itunes6?? The Apple technician said they would get back to me but of course they haven't. One last thing, I can finally connect to the itunes store but when I preview a video it freezes.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    While I haven't tried, I would image the answer is no.
    Usually when iPods are released with a new iTunes version, they aren't made to be/are made not to be compatible with previous iTunes versions.
    It may work, but I can't be sure either way (someone else may have tested this).
    In the past, even if iTunes updated the iPod, there tended to be problems syncing.
