Changes to timeline not saved, Captivate v2

(Captivate, v2, Windows XP SP2 OS)
I've been struggling with this for 2 days - I have multiple
objects on a slide and have rearranged the order of the objects on
the timeline - by dragging and by using the menu. After making the
changes, saving and closing the file, when I reopen it, the objects
have reverted to the original order.
I have tried rebooting my PC and also reinstalling Captivate
with no success. Does anyone have suggestions?

  • Timeline changes not saved-Captivate v2

    (Captivate, v2, Windows XP SP2 OS)
    I've been struggling with this for 2 days - I have multiple
    objects on a slide and have rearranged the order of the objects on
    the timeline - by dragging and by using the menu. After making the
    changes, saving and closing the file, when I reopen it, the objects
    have reverted to the original order.
    After changing the order of objects on the timeline, the new
    order is not saved. I have tried rebooting my PC and also
    reinstalling Captivate with no success. Does anyone have
    suggestions?

    I've been having the same problem. I have a project with
    about 100 slides, and sometimes the timeline will change the order
    of the objects on several of the slides, moving objects to the top
    that had been on the bottom, and vice versa. The mouse and the text
    captions are the objects that seem to be affected the most. After
    I've sifted through the entire project to make sure I've corrected
    anything that needs to be corrected, I'll save the project, close
    it out, and reopen it only to find that everything was put back the
    way it was before. Sometimes after I've made my corrections to the
    timeline, I'll publish or preview the project, and discover that
    the objects that were misplaced on the timeline are still showing
    up incorrectly even if the timeline itself is showing the changes
    that I had made. Does anyone have any suggestions about
    this?

  • I am able to change and add bookmarks, but these changes are sometimes not saved when I restart Firefox.

    Since updating to Firefox 4, changes to bookmarks are saved sometimes after restart, but not usually (maybe 25% of the time). The problem sounds exactly like what is described on the [[Bookmarks not saved]] help page, yet after making all the recommended changes, the problem persists. I have also performed the recommended actions on the [[Toolbar keeps resetting]] help page, with no luck there either.
    The only other thing that I can think of that may be helpful is that I use Firefox Sync between two computers, and both seem to be having this problem.

    I have some more information, in case it helps. During one Firefox session, I made about 8 changes to my bookmarks.When I restarted Firefox, the first few changes I had made were saved, but the rest were not. Additionally, the favicons that were present during my last session (that I hadn't had before that session) were reverted to the default favicon. I hope this helps!

  • Iphoto 11 , How to save changes to photos, not saving -/ snow leopard

    Hi , after much ado then discovering the recent "fix" for Iphoto 11 I started using it today. I uploaded new photos , edited them and quickly discovered that Iphoto was NOT saving any of the changes I had made.There  is no longer a  "Done" button so I went back to again check the few  photos I had adjusted , Iphoto only saved changes for one out of 10 of  the photos I had adjusted.
    Is there a "save changes"  function I am missing here? Anyone else experiencing this problem?

    How are you exporting? If you select the photo and export (file menu ==> export) with kind = JPEG or current the edited version will be exported
    if that is not happening try renewing your preference file -
    A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
    This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.

  • "Automatically Write Changes into XMP" Not Saving XMP Files

    I tried finding some other discussions on this but I couldn't seem to find anything...
    I recently checked the "Automatically Write Changes into XMP" setting in my "Catalog Settings". However, as I continue to add pictures to my library and make changes, I do *not* see the XMP files being written to the location of the pictures (Nikon NEF files located on my hard-drive). In fact, I can't find the XMP files anywhere. If I want to output the XMP files I have to do a Ctrl + S (Photo --> Save Metadata to File).
    I did notice that when I unchecked the setting and re-checked it, *some* of the XMP files showed up. However, in my import of 24 photos, only 14 had XMP files. I had to manually "Save Metadata to File" to get the XMP sidecar files to show.
    Am I doing something wrong? Is something not working right? I'm a bit confused. I assumed it would automatically export the sidecar files.
    How often should it be outputting XMP sidecards? If I import a new image should the XMP sidecar file be created? Or is it created the first time I change an original picture?
    I am using Adobe Lightroom 2.0 (Camera Raw 4.5) on a Mac OS X 10.5.5.
    Thanks,

    @Eric: hitting cntrl+s works but can be tedeous on large galleries. I've been doing this but it can be a pain.
    @Jeannine: different topic than this thread but to answer anyways... Lightroom automatically saves all changes into your catalogue. You never need to dave your changes (here's the kicker though) as long as you do not move the original file. If you
    move the file than lightroom won't know that it's the same image as the one you've edited. Once you are done editing your image you will need to "export" the image to a new file (you don't wan to overwrite the original). If you don't export than only lightroom will have your edits. Lightroom is "non-destructive" Which means that it doesn't touch your original photo. Lightroom keeps a text file containing the instructions on what you did to make the edited version. Since your changes are just text inatryxtions you have to "export" the image to get your final image in a version you can put online, print, etc. But to answer your original question, I think you prob moves the original image. If not, could you give us more info?

  • Changes in mail not saving in Yosemite

    When I upgraded my macbook air to Yosemite overtime I log into my mail I get a message the message "mail cannot send your password securely to the server. You can remove this restriction in the Accounts preferences by setting “Allow insecure authentication”, which could put your password at risk."
    When I check the box in preferences it works for a while but if I exit mail and come back I get the same message - why is this preference not being saved?

    Same here.  I'm having nothing but problems with Apple Mail via Yosemite right now and this very situation that we're both experiencing is making me miserable at the moment.  There more I start changing settings the more I'm likely going to have a mess. I'm still experiencing the issue of emails that reach my Go Daddy Imap webmail...being downloaded until quite awhile later via the new Apple Mail client.  In other words....nothing's different the last several months of having to constantly quite the application.
    Email is so critical for everyone...I was praying that email would sync and be improved in this new version.

  • Changes in Lightroom5 not saving

    I have the automatically write changes to XMP box checked, but when I look at the photo in Elements, the changes have not been applied.  Am I forgetting something?

    If you want the photo to appear in Elements the way it appears in Lightroom after you edited it, you need to either export the photo, or better yet use the Edit In... command in Lightroom.
    Elements will not read your edits in XMP.

  • Last changes not saved??

    Ok I have an issue with Flash CS 5.5
    When creating content and publish the swf and then save the fla file , all seem fine.
    When closing the fla and reopen it later, the last changes I made are not saved??
    This happens NOT every time.
    At first I thought it was me that I didn't save the document before closing, but no this really happens!!
    Never had this issue anywhere, but for now my only option is to stay with CS5.
    Does anyone have similair issues with 5.5?
    Menno
    running Win7x64,  24 GB Ram,  GTX 580

    I am having similar issues with flash CS5.5.
    On the stage in flash I have 4 text blocks. Instead of creating separate instances of each text block, I create one graphic and separate the text blocks into separate layers. Next I put each text block into it's own key frame while on it's own separate layer. So layer one is on frame 1. Layer 2 is on frame two and so on and so forth up until frame 4.
    Now on layer two I put a blank key frame on frame 1 so that the text block for layer 2 does not show up until frame 2. Same with layer 3, and layer 4 with each text block. This is for animation purposes.
    Now I'm back on the main stage and timeline. I bring in an instance of the new graphic symbol I've made. I go into my properties pallet down to the loop option and tell the graphic to play single frame and it's first frame is frame 1 then I put in a motion tween, the new motion tween NOT the classic tween. I do this so I can use some preset animations that I've created. I then drag that instance of that animation I just created a little on farther down the timeline. I then go to my properties pallet and change the frame it's supposed to play from frame 1 to frame 2. Still using the play single frame looping option. I do this until I get all 4 text blocks to come in as I need them and when I need them.
    Also after each animation is done, I put in a blank key frame by hitting the F7 button to insert one after the animation is done. I've attached a screen shot of my main timeline and also a screen shot of what the inside of my graphic instance is supposed to look like when I finish editing it to look as I need to to do as I want it to do, to help explain my issue. As you can see from the image, I have several key frames inserted on a layer above the motion tweens after the motions end. At these key frames I input the frame number that the previous animation just played. This saves on layers, and saves on creating several graphics which reduces my file size because I am using the same instance of one graphic instead of instances of multiple graphics.
    Now the problem is after I save the file and close it out, I then re-open the file and the graphic I just created reverts to the initial creation of said graphic. So all text blocks of my text are on frame 1, layer 1. All the layers I created, all the work I did in creating that graphic is gone. The animations are still in place, and the frame numbers for the looping option are still in place. In fact the looping option of single frame is still in place. It's the graphics that continuously revert backwards instead of staying as I've made them to be.
    This also happens with drawn objects that I've converted to a graphic symbol and groups of images I've converted to a graphic symbol doing the exact same thing I did for the text blocks only using either drawings via the drawing tools in flash or bringing in bitmap images. Note this does NOT affect buttons or movie clips as far as I know. This is something that has been going on for weeks since I've upgraded to CS5.5 flash. It doesn't make sense and it should not be doing this. I had no problems like this using CS4. My clients required that I use CS5 because they were updating to CS5 so I did as requested. Now I run into this problem. It makes for extra work, my clients are not happy with this happening and I need a fix as soon as possible.

  • Non admin user - changes not saved (Safari settings, system prefs, etc.)

    iMac, 2 users, one is administrator and other is standard user. Recently, in the non-admin user account, it has become impossible to make any changes. For example, adding an application to the the Dock, after logging out and back in next time, the application is not in the Dock any more. Also, making changes to the prefs in Safari, changes are not saved.
    I noticed this after installing FireFox v4. I installed it as admin whilst in the non-admin users account. However, I don't believe that the installation of FF has anything to do with the problem, it just highlighted it. I've checked the permissions for the various directories that hold prefs info such as user/libraries/application prefs/etc. etc. and also Safari prefs. Nothing I can see that has changed in system prefs.
    Any ideas on what has caused the problem (kids are known to fiddle from within the non-admin account) and any ideas on how to fix it?
    Thanks

    Hi PPRuNe,
    You could try making the standard user an Admin too. To do this, make sure you are logged in to the standard user, go to System Preferences > Accounts > Standard user (you may have to unlock the padlock) > Allow user to administer this computer
    This will allow changes to be made without being prompted for a password all the time.
    However, if you had Parental Controls on, they probably won't work on an admin account because as an admin you have complete control over a computer, so the computer thinks there is no point in having the controls turned on. And if the kids are known to "fiddle," just think carefully!
    Hope this helps you.
    Chris.

  • Enhancement in IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS not saving changes after order creation

    I have an enhancement at the beginning of the IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS function module used to create sales orders via EDI.  In the enhancement, I take the data records and make some changes to some quantities and units of measure.  After making these changes, I let the function module continue on as normal.  The order does get created with my changes in them, however, the IDoc doesn't reflect my changes.
    Here's an example:  An EDI order comes in with 6 EAs of a material.  In my enhancement, I change it from 6 EAs to 2 3PK.  I then let it go on its way.  The order gets created fine with 2 3PKs, however the IDoc after its a ll done still says 6 EAs. 
    The enhancement runs before the FM puts the data into the tables it uses. I tried using the last user exit to open the IDoc and editing it there using the EDI_DOCUMENT_OPEN_FOR_EDIT FM but it says its open. 
    Can anyone give me any clues on how to make my changes stick to the IDoc?
    Thanks,
    Curtis

    Ok, I figured out why it's not saving.  Not realizing it, but the tables are passed into the FM by reference, so what I'm changing is only a copy.  So what I tried to do is use the 004 (I've also tried the 005) user exits to try to update the actual DB.  I used the following FMs (EDI_DOCUMENT_OPEN_FOR_EDIT, EDI_CHANGE_DATA_SEGMENTS, and EDI_DOCUMENT_CLOSE_EDIT).  The problem is that I can't change them because the IDoc is still open.
    Does anyone have any ideas on how I can achieve my goal of changing the IDoc?
    Thanks,
    Curtis

  • Changes to my bookmarks are not saved when firefox is restarted. I already tried deleting places.sqlite, but it is still doing this.

    Since I downloaded Firefox 4, I have not been able to save changes to my bookmarks (this includes both adding new bookmarks or deleting old bookmarks). When I make a change, the changes are not saved the next time I restart Firefox. After doing a Google search I found a Mozilla help page that suggested deleting the place.sqlite file. After doing this, Firefox will save changes for a few days, but then go back to not saving the changes. I've done this twice already.

    Sounds that you have cleanup or other security software that cause corruption of the file places.sqlite
    You need to check the settings of your software and make sure that you exclude the Firefox Profile Folder to avoid such problems.

  • Changes in LRmob are not saved to camera roll on ipad...

    I just have been working on a batch of photographs on ipad and saved all the worked on images on my camera roll in ipad. When I opened my camera roll none of the changes had been saved, the photographs were the ones I had synced from desktop to ipad.
    The changes have been saved on my desktop though.
    Is it not possible to save the file with applied changes to camera roll for sharing with Instagram and Foap? If we can't save changes to camera roll I might as well stay with VSCO cam in ipad then...
    A work around is of course that I can pluck them back off probably from the Adobe cloud, but that is another step added to my workflow.
    I was hoping to use LRmob because the syncing is wonderful, and I start with LR for all my photographs.
    My current workflow is to import pics in LR, then drag the ones I want for Foap and Instagram via iPhoto and shared stream to get them onto ipad or iphone. Import in vsco and from there send to instagram or Foap. I know, rather heavy workload.
    I had hoped that LRmobile would have cut this load in half...
    I wonder if it is possible to make the changes applied in LRmob savable in camera roll... Since LRmob has been designed for idevices, it does need a saving option on the device. Otherwise it's missing a major feature.
    I must admit that the filters and processing are fab... My pics do look so smashing on ipad air.
    I am very happy with LRmob apart from the question title...

    Thanks Rikk, that is how I understood it. Thanks for your speedy answer, I really appreciate it. And that is exactly how I shared, I just thought that the changed images did not go to the camera roll. I will try again!
    Thank you so much!

  • Upon startup Firefox says "Proxy is refusing connections." When I select "Auto-Detect Proxy" from Advanced settings and solve problem, changes are not saved and upon next startup I must select again...!

    Firefox 4 was working fine. Then one day, when I started up Firefox, it says "Proxy is refusing connections." I solved this by selecting "Auto-Detect Proxy" from Advanced network settings, but my changes are not saved and upon every start-up I must select it again! (I even completely removed my webroot antivirus protection, as it as hindering many proxy related programs, but this seems to not be the source of the problem)

    You can find the connection settings in Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection
    If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select "No Proxy"
    See "Firefox connection settings":
