Captivate is not working with VM?

Hello,
today I tried to record some clicks and movements during
using Outlook on a virtual machine. I tried to capture menus or
moving emails per draganddrop to another folder.
But the problem is that Captivate isnt capturing anything,
only 2 sheets were recorded of a session with nearly 50 mouse
clicks?? So the recorded movie is only 5 seconds long but it should
be like 5 minutes.
So what is the problem? Captivate is installed on the normal
os, outlook is part of the VM, maybe this is the problem??? But I
run the vm in window mode so it should work? But I have to use the
VM Outlook, the only thing I can change is to install Captivate on
the VM but is this the solution?

True - but since it will not record things like auto captions
"click the
Start button", or text entries, menus etc, I find it much
more useful to
install Captivate to the VM. Depends on your needs ;-)

  • Captivate 5 not working with LMS when linking to AICC published file

    When we publish and link our Captivate 4 files. Everything works fine. Now that we've upgraded and tried launching the Captivate 5 files. We only get a loading screen. Can someone help us? We provide training for over 10,000 employees and train several departments to use Captivate for our LMS, but now with Captivate 5 not working it brings up a big issue for us.

    another HotFix worked for me:
    This is with reference to the issue you are facing with AICC courses on LMS.
    Please follow the steps mentioned below and let me know if this solves the issue for you.
    1.       Close Captivate if already launched.
    2.       Navigate to Captivate installed folder ( For Ex : C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate 5)
    3.       Navigate to folder “Templates”
    4.       Open folder “Publish”
    5.       Open folder “AICC”
    6.       Rename the HTM file “default.htm” to “default_old.htm”.
    7.       Download the zip the file from https://acrobat.com/#d=rZv8-z9C0z4PPMpqjbkZIQ , Unzip the contents and copy the HTM file “default.htm”
    8.       Paste it inside “AICC” folder.
    9.       Launch Captivate and open the project.
    10.   Re-publish the project and upload the content to LMS.
    Let me know if this solves the issue.

    hope it works for you!

  • Captivate 4 AS2 Text Entry Box not working with Flash Player 11

    I am having issues with text entry boxes not working at all in flash 11. I am using Captivate 4 and exporting an AS2 swf. When you get to the slide you can type but you cannot see anything nor does the button or keystroke to move on. Also there is no cursor. Any ideas?

    You said it is not working with Flash 11, so does that mean you tested with previous version and that worked?
    While publishing choose Flash player as 9 and publish that, verify if that plays in a compatible web browser.
    AS 2 is a legacy scripting, it has been said not too be supported with even Flash Player 10 --
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AS2LCR/Flash_10.0/help.html?content=Part2_AS2_LangRef_1.html
    I believe if you switch back to version 9 while publish your project, it should work.
    Thanks,

  • Captivate 8 content not working with screen readers

    My Adobe Captivate 8 published content is not working with any of the screen readers I have tested:  JAWS, Mac Voice Over, and Windows Narrator. It is a simple launch page with 6 buttons used to launch additional CBTs. 
    I have been over and over the content in the help topic for this and cannot find any reason to think I am not doing this right:
    [ ] https://helpx.adobe.com/captivate/using/creating-accessible-projects.html
    I have added accessibility text for the slide, I have tried adding the accessibility text for the buttons,  have turned on accessibility in my publish settings, I have even tried just adding a text caption sitting on the slide with the text I want read by the screenreader - none of it works. 
    I have searched the forums and it appears others have this issue as well.  The latest forum post was having to do with Captivate 7 - where the poster followed up stating Adobe Support recognized this as a "bug".  Does screen reader accessibility work in Captivate 8 or not? 
    Is there anyone out there who has produced content that works with a screen reader?! If so, please tell me what the secret is!!

    I've been able to get a screen reader to read parts of a Captivate 8 presentation using the HTML5 output (but NOT the .swf output). I tested using NVDA.
    However - they keyboard accessibility does not seem to be functioning correctly. I can tab through buttons and such - but hitting enter on any of the buttons (play, forward, backward, closed captions, audio) does not work.
    Overall - doesn't seem that Captivate 8 is as "accessible" as Adobe is claiming. Much of what they claim should work - does not.
    CP8 is certainly no where near WCAG 2.0 "AA" standards (which unfortunately is where i need things to be).

  • Application is not working with mouse

    Dear All,
    We have a strange issue in the our application (Oracle form) in the one of our client machine.
    Some times the forms are not able to work with the mouse but is able to work with the keyboard. After one or two machine restart its again working. When the issue occur we can able to work in other applications using mouse.
    Our Applications server is in Other country and client are accessing from India.
    This occurs for some user and not for all.
    Application server Version          10.1.2.0.2.
    Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit
    Java Plug-in version 1.6.0_31 .
    Please any info will help us lot.

    Thank you for the quick replies Michael Ferrante and HamidHelal.
    But since its occurring for some users (perticulary indian users) and some times. And also its occurring in production environment not in development environment.
    Even the java control panel is not working with mouse.
    For other country customers everything working fine.
    So its difficult for me to apply the patch with these uncertainties.
    Checking with fresh java installation and let you know the status.
    Thanks.

  • Caller ID not working with Nokia 6600?

    I have a T-Mobile (US) Nokia 6600, and I can't seem to get address book to display incoming SMS or the caller ID of incoming calls. I've successfully paired the phone via bluetooth, and I can make address book dial the phone and send an sms. I can sync via iSync, use my phone as a modem, etc. etc.
    But regardless of what settings I tweak, I can't seem to get Address Book to show a bezel of any kind on incoming calls - not even an 'Unknown Caller' message! Am I missing something obvious? Third party apps like BluePhoneElite work just fine, so I'm pretty sure it's something wrong with Address Book...

    The Caller ID issue was due to an outage. It should be resolved anytime soon. Can yu log out and log back in. Go to app settings and in notifications and turn CAller ID off and on.
    On email - what do you mean 'email is very hard to see' ? I would like to pass on this feedback to the team.

    Flash player does not work with Ie or Firefox with win 8.1 64, If i try and play a video I get the message to install Flashplayer.
    If I try and install it it says it is already installed. Your onsite  installer says it is not applicable to my machine.
    I have followed all the normal steps re enabling addons and active filters etc.
    all to no avail Pc is Dell 6 months old, Flashplayer has never worked on this machine. Last MS update mid Dec 2014.
    Version of flashplayer is 15....03.......

    Flash Player is a built-in component of Internet Explorer.  There's nothing separate to download or install.
    Firefox requires a different version of Flash Player (the NPAPI plug-in), which will be served to you if you go here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer using Firefox; however, there are some unique stability issues related to Firefox on Win8.1, and you're probably better off using Google Chrome if you want a more optimal experience with Flash Player.
    For problems where IE isn't being detected by sites that require Flash:
    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

    I have a Macbook and iPhone and like to back up to iCloud.  However, my work computer runs Outlook 2003, which I know will not work with the iCloud.  The company has no plans to update anytime soon.  Since the calendar and contact list on my office computer are my primay ones, I hard sync through iTunes.  The problem is that any data synced from Outlook 2003 to the iPhone from iTunes does NOT later backup to iCloud.  Is there a solution?
