Conflict between Articulate Engage swf and Quiz Manager

I am inserting an articulate engage swf into my Breeze presentation and my Presenter quiz questions do not work correctly after inserting the engage swf.
My process has been to publish the engage swf which also publishes a content folder....Then I insert the engage swf into the powerpoint presentation....Then publish the presentation locally with Presenter. I then have to add the engage content folder to the Presenter output folder structure in data > resources.
My slide presentation also has Adobe Quiz Manager questions in it. THe problem i am having is the quiz questions will not advance with the engage swf in the presentation. The kicker is, the quiz questions will work if they are on slides that come before any slide with engage content on it. for example if there are a couple of quiz questions in my presentation and the first one is on slide 5 followed by an engage swf on slide 6, this first quiz question will work. If the next quiz question is on slide 7 it will not advance after the user answers the question. If i skip the slide with the engage content (by going from slide 5 to 7) the 2nd quiz question will work just fine. It seems that loading the engage swf causes a problem for the quiz questions that come after it .
Has anyone had this type of problem?
thanks in advance. - Mike

Hi Mike!
I actually ran into a problem similar to what you've written about here.
Here's a suggestion to try; you may experience weird / unexpected results, but it may be worth a try....and who knows, it could help!
Here goes:
Rather than using one quiz container for your content / course, what I'd like you to do is break up "non-contiguous" question slides into totally separate quiz containers. I think what you need to avoid is having any kind of flash interactions from Engage running between a set of question slides stemming from one quiz container.
So instead of having a question on slide 5, an Engage interaction on slide 6 and another question on slide 7.....I want you to try breaking that up so that it looks like this:
Question on slide 5 [from quiz container 1], Engage interaction, question on slide 7 [from quiz container 2]...and so on.
Here's the deal: I've personally seen instances where adding custom Flash animations between question slides have caused some interference with the functionality of question slides. Even though you're using a totally different product, Engage still employs code parameters that can cause some breakdowns as soon as you publish your Adobe Presenter content, and I think that's what's happening here. To be brutally honest, I don't have Engage, but I'd be willing to bet it's causing the same problems that I've encountered with Flash animations that I've tried to incorporate into my Presenter content.
So again, try breaking up the question slides into separate, independant quiz containers and see if that resolves the problem....I'd be curious to know if that works!

Need Help - Inserting articulate engage swf in a published Presenter presentaiton.

Hello. I am having tremendous difficulty publishing articulate engage swf's in my adobe presenter presentation. I have done this before but for some reason i am having trouble now. When i publish my presentation locally, the output from presenter changes the name of my swf files to embedded_flash_... with a number at the end. My question is how can i tell what presenter has renamed the indidual swf files. I have to change the name of the content folder from engage to match so i need to know which slide has which swf. I have several swf files in the presentation and keeping track of them is quite difficult.
Is there a way to click on slide with a swf on it to determine what presenter has renamed it? Swf Properties or View shockwave object or something else?????
Thanks Mike

Conflict between program Mac mail and program Microsoft Outlook e-mail???

Denmark, Kolding, 30th of September 2010
A conflict between program Mac mail and program Microsoft Outlook e-mail?
For several months tried to discuss and resolve with several Apple specialists/support, but without much luck.
Therefore I have discussed these issues with 2 different and independent Mac users to find out in testing other Mac users will have the same problems as outlined in the below mentioned situations.
I will therefore outline the coverage issues, as mentioned, including occurs on my iMac 21.5 " with serial number: <Edited by Host> and 2 friends with their Macbooks of new dates as follows:
1. Sending from my Mac plain mail as "plain text "(during formatting):
Plain text mail as "Plain Text "(during formatting) Verdana font size 10, sent and received on Windows PC with the correct letter size - but with the font changed to Century Gothic!!!
2. Sending from my Mac plain mail "formatted text" (during formatting):
Eg. with my signature/signature-colored types and Verdana as font and size 10, possibly with underlining and italics in the text dispatched - the mail received as text with New Times Roman size 12 and signing /signature color Verdana now in size 13.5!!!!
3. Sending plain mail "as normal text "(during formatting)
In the mail text underlined and made bold - the program asks whether to convert to RTF format (to keep underlining, bold, etc.) and Verdana as font and size 10, YES - this mail is received on the Windows PC as text with New Times Roman with the desired underlining and bold text and size 12!!!!
4. Plain text mail as "formatted Text"
Eg. with signature / signature-colored types and Verdana as font and size 10, possibly with underlining and italics in the text sent - received as text with New Times Roman and signing / signature as colored Verdana now in size 13.5!!!
5. Sending mail with file attached:
After producing a normal text document modified to PDF and directly from the Adobe Reader sent this PDF file in e-mail formatted as normal text with font Verdana 10 point, with signature. This is received on the Windows PC with a PDF file OK, but the font of the mail text is changed to Century Gothic and missing signature. Signature is available as an attachment on the Windows Outlook e-mail program as a ATT00113.text file. This can be opened and there is the missing signature!
6. Sending e-mail with photos directly from iPhoto
iPhoto opens and click on the desired photos eg. 5 pcs. (Exactly as mentioned in the demo video!) and click on the e-mail icon at iPhoto and the program opens and e-mail that is opened with the attached photos and rich text is being used in the mail. Signature disappears and must be clicked on the mail by the sender.
The mail is received with the attached pictures OK - text changed to Times Roman with the desired bold - though no signature and 5 pcs. Att0028.html files attached. These can be opened and contains the file number each picture!
The above problems can be partly avoided by the following:
1. Only send mails as plain text
Without any underlining, attachments, etc.. When the Windows PC Outlook receiver opens the mail where only the text fond is changed!!
2. Sending mail with attached file
Start opening the mail program and use formatted plain text first and then attach (with the staple) file, and the Window receiver will get the file, but text and signature changed to Times New Roman size 13!!
3. Sending mail with photos from iPhoto
Start by opening mail program text in Verdana 10 and click the Photo Browser and find (look for - takes its time!) the pictures you want to send and pull/drag them into the mail and send, - images, text and signature are in the mail on Windows PC - but with the font changed to Century Gothic!!!
If sent as formatted text with various underlining, italics, etc. together with the photos will be received OK - but the writing is now New Times Roman size 12 signatures Verdana now in size 13!!!
I must say – I am disappointed with the Mac mail program – it actually means that sending a perfect mail with underlining, colours, a.s.o. also photos directly from iPhoto – will received at a Windows computer in a totally mess.
Looking forward to some good news from either Mac supporter or some clever Mac users who can help me to adjust my Mac to avoid these problems IF POSSIBLE!!!!.
Apple/Mac is too good a product to make these problems!!
Best regards
Peter Larsen
<Edited by Host>

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
The PC sets the font on its side, the Mac does on its side for plain text. There is no "font size" in plain text coding. Rich Text gives you a bit more control, but only if both e-mail clients support it. HTML gives you a bit more control, but only if both e-mail clients support it. Use the asterisk, parenthesis, underscore, or any keyboard symbol that is part of the original ASCII. Otherwise, the chance is nobody else will be able to read it who does not have your e-mail client in the same version.
Sadly there are no e-mail standards except MIME for attachment, and even that isn't universally supported. E-mail is not the ideal medium for anything except plain text that is ASCII. To learn more about ASCII, see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII
If you want to post a website that is universally understood, see the hints here:

Conflict between refeneces in Lightswitch\ and Silverlight\ after update to Visual Studio 2013 12.0.40302.00 and SQL Server Data Tools 12.0.50226.0

After updating VS and SSDT there began a conflict with references in two directories under the SDKs folder (Lightswitch and Silverlight):
Error 91
The type 'System.Data.Services.Client.DataServiceCollection<T>' exists in both '
...\Microsoft SDKs\LightSwitch\v4.5\Client\Microsoft.Data.Services.Client.SL.dll' and 'both '
...\Microsoft SDKs\Silverlight\v5.0\Libraries\Client\System.Data.Services.Client.dll'
...\SPDCDataObjectContext.cs 1478
52 Spac.DesktopClient
I thought since the Lightswitch directory was newer that I would comment out the Silverlight directory and see how far that would get me. Now I get:
Error 16
The type or namespace name 'Composition' does not exist in the namespace 'System.ComponentModel' (are you missing an assembly reference?)
...\Spac.DesktopClient\GeneratedArtifacts\ApplicationGenerated.cs
13 36
Spac.DesktopClient
How do I handle the original conflict between refeneces in Lightswitch\ and Silverlight\ ?
Scott Mitchell

Thank you. Yes that resolves the conflict but leaves some missing references like the "Composition"
reference above. I was able to get past that by adding System.ComponentModel.Composition. This is after installing the VS 2013 update 4 build.
Now I get the following. I'm concerned that I'm taking references from both Lightswitch and Silverlight
sdk's just to get it to build. These references are required because of the auto generated code. I must have something quirked. Anyway what about System.Data.Common.DbConnection? How can I get it without
referencing System.Data?
Error 2
The type 'System.Data.Common.DbConnection' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly 'System.Data, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'.

Difference between Web Service URL and Report Manager URL

What is the difference between Web Service URL and Report Manager URL in Reporting Service configuration manager in SQl Server 2008 Reporting Setrvices

Another way to put it is the Web Service URL is just that, its used for services that are connecting to issue API calls. The Report Manager URL is the nice GUI that users should use. If you click the links, you should see the difference. I
am sure you have likely done that, but functionally one is for programmatic purposes and the other to be the front end graphical user interface.

Conflict between Client object model and Item Updated Event Receiver in sharepoint 2010

Hello All,
As per my requirement I have a two custom list.
Agent Details
Port Name
Agent Details contains Agent code, Port Name, email, address and phone of Agent. Its possible that one Agent Code is connected with multiple Port Name.
Basically what I am doing is I am getting port name connected with Agent code, using jquery and bind those values with check box(using javascript created dynamically) and bind all with Div tag.
Now when my custom edit form of Agent list open up it shows me different port name binding with checkbox group.
when user select the check box and click confirm button my clicent object model script will run and add this selected value into Port Name list.
After confirm one more button named Save will enable asking user to edit the email, phone or address value and when I click on save my Item updated event fires which update the values of the selected port name(These port name I am getting from port
name list) to Agent Details custom list.
Now when I am trying to update the values my event receiver fires or some times it got stuck(not firing). So could you please help me the possible alternative for this requirements.
Can we user the Ecma Script(Client object model to preserve the value of selectec port) and Item updated event receiver on the same time?
Is anything am doing wrong then please guide me.

Hi,
As I understand, when you updated values in the agent details list the Item updated event receiver got stuck sometimes.
The item update event receiver will fire after the item has been saved, and the client object model script or the Ecma Script runs before the item is saved, so there is no conflict between the client object model script and item update event receiver.
You could find out the reason about the item update event receiver gets stuck by debugging the event receiver.
When you want to debug your event receivers, you have to attach to OWSTIMER.EXE and wait till they are executed. You can control this behavior using the Synchronization attribute. Also, if you’re looking for an easy way to debug an event receiver without
having to manually attach a debugger to your code, you can use the System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Launch() method.
The articles below are about how to debug in the event receiver in SharePoint 2010.

I have a conflict between Firefox Version 5 and both Ebay and Fasthost Sitebuilder image uploads.

Since upgrading to version 5 of Firefox subscreens of ebay are not displaying, Fasthost Sitebuilder has stopped allowing the import of pictures and I am being logged out of secure sites before transactions are completed.

I encounter immediate problems on installing Firefox 5. There were 3 Windows 7 crashes and I could not access Firefox. It was determined that there was a conflict between the anti virus program and the 5 version. There is no download for the older version 4 was not available. After trying several fixes, nothing worked.
One post indicated that Mozilla was not fixing Firefox 5 and that the fixes were made in Firefox 6 version. Reluctantly, I upgraded to six and , to my amazement, it works again. Nothing ventured, nothing gained!! Hope it works for you.

Difference between a Flash *.swf and a Flash *.flv video?

What is the difference between a *.swf and a *.flv video?
AFAIK both are Flash videos.
Are they compatible?
Is there a player (not from MS) which plays both videos?
Peter

Im guessing you're a complete newbie to all this, so in
simplistic terms:
- The FLA is the source flash file (the bit that contains all
the design stuff and code). When you publish a FLA, it creates a
SWF file.
- The FLV file is a video which has been converted to flash
video format.
- A SWF displays anything thats been created within the FLA
to provide things like a wizzy website, advertising banner or can
be used to show a FLV (flash video) with added functions. Although
it sort of points to the video rather than storing it inside (so
the file is smaller and manageable)
The benefits of using a SWF to play FLV's is that it displays
at lot quicker. F4V's (another variance) I've now discovered,
although are larger files, also display very quickly even with
larger files.
In terms of playback - do you want to view online or offline?
to view online, you just need to make sure you have flash
installed on whatever machine you're using - pc/mac.
to view offline (from your hard disc), download the Adobe
Media Player

Conflict between the saved data and the sampling rate and samples to read using PXI 6070e

Hello, I am using PXI 6070e to read an analog voltage. I was sampling at 6.6 MHz and the samples to read were 10. So, that means it should sample 10 points every 1.5 um. The x-axis of the graph on the control panel was showing ns and us scale, which I think because of the fast sampling and acquiring data. I use "write to measurement file" block to save the data. However, the data was saved every 0.4 second and as 35 points data at the beginning of each cycle (e.g. 35 points at 0.4 sec and 35 at 0.8 sec, and so on) and there was no data in between. Can anyone help me how there are 35 reading points every cycle? I could not find the relation between the sampling rate and samples to read, to 35 points every 0.4 second!
Another thing, do I need to add a filter after acquiring the data (after the DAQ assistant block)? Is there anti-aliasing filter is built in PXI 6070e?
Thanks for the help in advance,
Alaeddin

I'm not seeing anything that points to this issue. Your DAQ is set to continuous acquire. I'm not sure if this is really what you want because your DAQ buffer will keep overwriting. You probably just want to set to Read N Samples.
I'm not a fan of using the express VIs. And since you are writing to a TDMS file, I would use the Stream to TDMS option in DAQmx. If you use the LabVIEW Example Finder, search for "TDMS Log" for a list of some good examples.

Workspace Credential Conflict between Logged-in User and the Authenticated User

Hi there,
I am running LiveCycle ES Update1 SP2 with Process Management component on WIN/JBoss/SQL Server 2005.
I have been encountering user credential conflicts from time to time, but it has not been consistent and the problem manifested in various ways, such as:
- problem when logging in with error "An error occurred retrieving tasks." on the login screen
- user logs in successfully but is showing somebody else queue(s) with his/her own queue with no task in there
- fails to claim task from group queue.
The stacktrace from the server.log file I collected from a production system shows the exception below.
Has anybody else encountered the similar problem?
It looks to me that it doesn't log out cleanly and some kind of caching is done on the authenticated session and is not cleaned up properly on user logout.

I am having the same server issue and i cant get hold of SP3 to fix it. can anyone tell me how to fix this problem or provided a link where i can get SP3 from? Ive spent most of the day on the phone to Adobe Support and they have been unable to provide me with a link to the service pack.

DHCP Conflict between ZfD 4 Agent and Novell Client

I am having problems with the use of Novell Client versions that support
DHCP settings tab (Tree, Context, Server).
This is in this board because my problem is only reproduced when ZENworks
for Destkops 4 (IR5 and IR7) Workstation Management component is installed.
THe problem is this:
Every now and then, logging in with the novell client displays 886f errors
in the login results window, and other strange communication errors.
If I release and renew the IP, it works fine after that.
If I reboot, there is a chance I get the same problem.
This absolutely does not happen when I have the two options for DHCP
settings in the Novell Client unchecked (Server->Binary Data).
Now, is ZfD Workstation Manager getting the Preferred Server IP from DHCP
as well during system startup? Is this clear? Happens on both Windows
2000 and Windows XP.
I have no access to the router serving DHCP so I don't know the details on
that end.

There was (is?) a conflict that is supposed to be solved,
but I'm not 100% convinced that is true. Since I always
use Client32 I remove novdhcp.dll in my ZfDAgent transform,
even now with ZDM7 because I've seen the "semaphore" error
there too if I don't.

Conflict Between Toshiba Bluetooth Stack and Power Drawers on Tecra M5

There seems to be a bug in TosBtShell.dll and I'm hoping this alert might get it repaired in a future revision. Maybe also it will save others the considerable effort it cost me to track down the problem on my new Tecra M5. I've had to abandon Toshiba Bluetooth Stack and now use the one in XP SP2.
When Bluetooth Manager is running, TosBtShell.dll puts the item 'to Bluetooth' next to 'Send To' in the context menu for files and folders. Unfortunately it conflicts with the shell enhancement software Power Drawers http://www.dynamickarma.com/powerdrawers.htm that I rely on to speed up access to my computer files. This software lets you right-click on a folder to display its contents in a list. You can then mouse to any folder in the list and that one also expands as a sub-list - and so on as deep as you like until you reach the folder or file that you want. Right-click an item in the cascade and you get a list of useful options. However if Bluetooth Manager is running when you do the right-click, Power Drawers crashes and you have to close and reopen explorer.exe to get it back.
The conflict stops if you remove 'to Bluetooth' from the context menu for files and folders. I proved this by using ShellExView from Nirsoft http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/shexview.html to disable the Registry key 'Bluetooth File Extenstion' [sic]. This key is associated with C:\WINDOWS\system32\TosBtShell.dll and CLSID {6BEF3D0B-53F0-4b0d-B91C-C19ED3D4C9D1}. Unfortunately the Registry key comes back again whenever you restart Bluetooth Manager.
David Tong.

I forgot to say in my original posting that the problem still exists in the current version of Toshiba Bluetooth Stack that I downloaded on 6th July from the Bluetooth page.
R2D2, your 'recommendation' would be useful if the site showed in detail what bugs have been fixed. I tried the new version because, although there was no mention of a fix for context menu issues, it does mention that "minor bug-fixes" have been made. I discovered the hard way that these fixes do not deal with the issue I described.
My experience with new Toshiba laptops over the past 15 years is that the update documentation seldom states clearly enough what has changed when new software versions appear. Yet such information could save users a lot of time.
Changing the Bluetooth stack from Microsoft to Toshiba and back is not a five-minute task.
But it seems that the MS Bluettooth stack works with Power Drawers

Qosmio G30: Conflict between Sigmatel audio driver and Vista SP1

Hello,
I have a Qosmio G30 PQG32E notebook and can't upgrade to Vista SP1 because the Sigmatel driver (6.10.5462.0) is conflicting with the service pack.
As some of you might know, Sigmatel no longer exists and IDT who bought them is as good as non-existent, saying to contact the OEM directly for updated drivers.
Is there any plan to upgrade the audio driver ?
There are huge memory leaks in my case from the audio driver.
When using Photoshop or Premiere Pro, the audiodg.exe proccess consumes 800MB and more after one hour of continuous work.
I am hoping for an updated more stable driver, and more stability from SP1.
Am I a dreamer?

Have your problems started after SP1 installation? Just for info: at the moment Toshiba does not support SP1. I really believe that you have some troubles and because of that I still wait with SP1 installation.
You are right about Qosmio. It costs a lot of money but using delivered recovery image installation you will not have any problem. About memory and how much resources Vista needs you can read everywhere. Even if you close some application RAM will still be occupied with different information. If you start the same application again you will see that application starts second time much faster.
It is Vista!!!
You have really nice notebook and you should upgrade RAM to maximum level. I am pretty the notebook will runs much better and of course faster. For such notebook 2 GB for Vista is really the minimum.

Version conflict between XE's ODP and VS2005/ODT's ODP

Suppose you've just built an application with VS2005, .NET Framework 2.0, and Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio .NET with Oracle10g Release 2 ODAC 10.2.0.2.20 which uses Oracle.DataAccess.dll version 2.102.2.20. You want to be able to run the application on a client machine that has an Oracle XE database installed locally. Perhaps you even require that the client machine runs the Oracle XE Client. Unfortunately, even with both there seems to be a version conflict regarding Oracle.DataAccess.dll. Can anyone say what are the best practices for such a situation?

Situation:
1) Oracle XE (database with/without client) installs with the following two files in the <ORACLEXE_SERVER_HOME>/BIN directory:
Oracle.DataAccess.dll v10.2.0.100 (for .NET Framework 1.0)
OraOps10.dll v10.2.0.100 (for .NET Framework 1.0)
2) Applications built with VS2005, .NET Framework 2.0, and Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio .NET with Oracle10g Release 2 ODAC 10.2.0.2.20 use Oracle.DataAccess.dll v2.102.2.20 (for .NET Framework 2.0).
3) The client machine will be missing the following two files vital to the application: Oracle.DataAccess.dll v2.102.2.20 (for .NET Framework 2.0), OraOps10w.dll v2.102.2.20 (for .NET Framework 2.0). These two files can be found on the development machine in the <ORACLE_ODAC HOME>/odp.net/bin/2.x and <ORACLEODAC _HOME>/bin directories, respectively.
Action:
When installing the application on the client's machine, place copies of the two missing files into the client's <ORACLEXE_SERVER_HOME>/BIN directory, overwriting the existing Oracle.DataAccess.dll v10.2.0.100 (for .NET Framework 1.0).
Result:
The application performs as expected.
My immediate concern is that the client may object to replacing the existing Oracle.DataAccess.dll v10.2.0.100 (for .NET Framework 1.0). What are the best practices for such a situation?
