Cp 5.5 - after i publish my cp5.5 project, the swf (or exe) won't play, just sits there

Hi all, i've been struggling with this for 2 hours and can't figure it out, hopefully it's something basic I'm doing wrong. I have a project that works fine in Preview mode in captivate (5.5). After i publish, though, to either Flash or exe, and try to view the swf (or exe), it doesn't play. it just sits on the first slide, the audio that should begin doesn't begin and the slide doesn't progress. No way to get the file to start playing. I was working on other projects all morning, that all published fine, the only difference between this file and the earlier ones is tht this one has different scoring settings and a slightly different skin (fewer nav buttons). Windows XP. And as i said, i have never seen this before and have published alot of projects successfully of late. Any suggestions? i thought maybe the file name had gotten to long, with my directory structure, but moving it up a level didn't seem to help.
Thank you for any help you can provide.

Repair Permissions with the Disk Utility.
Download and run FCP Rescue (might have missed a preference file with that removal app)
Uhm....do the Hokey Pokey?

After install of Mavericks, it looks like my system kernal panics and just sits there. I tried waiting over two nights. Tried reinstalling twice, booting ro the repair partition and repairs permissions/drive/verify , with no problems. Tried reseting PVRAM(or whateverit called). Recovery partition now has Mavericks as OS. Im running a iMac i3 27 inch circa 2011. Any ideas? Can still bootcamp into windows.
Thank you

The file seems to create the CD/DVD/Image and USB just fine. So I used this only to create a CD image which I then wrote on a blank CD which seems to work fine. Also, I played around a bit and had some partial success in booting the partition. I've updated my original opening post with the new findings.
Whew!! what a waste of time! Never want to do all of this again .

Flash File (swf) in Powerpoint won't play after 1st time

Windows XP,
Powerpoint 2003
Captivate4
FlashPlayer 10
I've created a flash file using Captivate4 and successfully embedded it in a Powerpoint presentation using the controls toolbox.
It plays, but once I save and close the Powerpoint file then reopen, the swf file will no longer play - it is just a blank white flash player, with the player controls visible. I checked the properties and the link is still there. The control settings in properties are as follows:
Embedmovie: true
Loop: true
Menu: true
Movie: (has the link which worked the first time)
Playing: true
Anyone out there ever have a similar problem and resolved it?

After looking around on varous other forums this seems to be the issue:
There are a bunch of known bugs in flash 9 and 10, one of those being an issue with the Event.COMPLETE not being fired from the main stage when loading from cache when it's embedded WMODE = "transparent"
I'm not sure if that's your issue, but it's worth looking into. I've heard of a few workarounds to the problem. One of them being, not listening for for progress or complete events at all and just using a timed loop like ENTER_FRAME or TIMER to watch the bytesLoaded/bytesTotal."
My WMODE is window, but this sounds like it makes the most sense. I have attached the AS3 file. From viewing the flash it appears to freeze up where it should be going into swfProgressHandle, I think that's whats happening because the load bar doesn't increase in width at all and loadText doesn't even get set to anything, which happens in swfProgressHandle. This what also coincide with the above quote. Now the problem I have is that I didn't write the loading area of this flash, I only wrote part of the stuff inside the loading functions and also everything inside init, the person who helped me with this I haven't been able to make contact with and this site is supposed to go live very very soon. I am desparate for help! At this point I'd be willing to paypal some money over to anyone who could help me with this and get this working appropriately.

My project in imovie says source unavailable after I moved the events to the backup drive. It is connected and shows up in the events library. I can see the pictures but they won't play without the source. What do I do.

I moved it because I did not have room on my hard drive to import my latest video. I take videos my grandkids basketball games then edit them as projects. I don't have room to move the whole events library back to my hard drive. Can I move part of it at a time.
I filled up my 1 TB back up drive so got a 3TB to move my video projects to. Do I have to move both the i photo videos and the projects to the 3 TB drive together some how. When can I delete them off the hard drive .
I moved all the i photo library to the 3 TB drive and deleted them out of i photo. That is 87 GB which I don't have room for on my hard drive.
I think when I use the export movie to my hard drive it works but will I still be able to edit it later if I want. Is it best to do quick time or i tunes if I use the export feature.

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste (command-V) into the text box that opens, then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
I've seen an unconfirmed report that the "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you might need to remove it as well, if applicable.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

After upgrading to Lion my videos have a codec error and won't play

Hi waiex,
I have recently upgraded to Lion and have the same problem as you. Did you find a solution?
Thanks in advance.

Firefox won"t connect to Career Builder. Used to, but last 3-4 versions won't. just sits there after clicking on a link, such as "find all matching jobs" and have to hit 'Home" button to stop. Works in IE. ran malicious sw scan and nothing was found

not many other details, but it used to work just fine and stopped after a new version was downloaded I don't know which version caused it, still doesn't work in latest version. have to open IE and use it to do job searches. after clicking on a link of a search(I have them emailed to me), the PC stalls and hitting the "back" button many times sometimes frees it up, but usually I have to hit the "home" button

When I publish some of my projects, the pdf won't play if it has a table of contents.

I've been asked to provide .pdf versions of the published projects, and when I open some of them, they look like this:
I am using Captivate 5.5, and if I uncheck "Show TOC" in the Project > Table of Contents menu, the course will play normally. Since I need to include the TOC in the course, I need to fix this.
Thanks for any replies.

After updating my iPhone 4 to ios5 music from my playlist won't play?

After I updated my iPhone I try playing music and only the songs that I bought on iTunes will play on the iPhone, when I click play nothing happens. The songs will play fine on my computer. I resented and hard reset it sinc it twice and still won't work

I tried all the things in the forums and I also did all the things the Apple techs told me to do... Uninstalled iTunes completely, and then reinstalled. I erased all the info on my iPhone 4S, set it up as a new phone and tried to sync again. All of it failed to work.
Here is what worked for me:
1) Start iTunes
2) Connect iPhone
3) Click on iPhone device in left hand column
4) On the Summary tab, in the Options section, I had nothing checked.
5) Check "Convert higher bit rate songs to 128 kbps AAC"
6) Started sync
7) Waited until a track was syncing
8) Uncheck "Convert higher bit rate songs to 128 kbps AAC"
9) Click on Apply and started the sync again
Most of the tracks made it over but not all of them.
I sent my computer and iTunes diagnostic information over to Apple and now I'm waiting on a response from them on how to get the remaining tracks over to my iPhone.

Why won't my last five or six iTunes purchases play on my iPhone after I sync. I can see the album covers and songs in the lineup. But won't play.

Why won't my most recent iTunes purchases play on my iPhone? Oddly, the album covers and song titles show up on the phone after synching, but still won't let me play them.

I'm a bit confused by your question.
You say you have synced with your iMac, and that you have match turned on. If match is turned on you can't sync music any more.
Are the purchases new, or old ones?
Can you confirm that match is turned on on both the iMac and the iPhone.

Windows Explorer was crashing/restarting every few seconds and after trying several different methods of fixes, the only one that worked was removing Firefox, is there something I've missed that I can get Firefox back?

I'm running a Toshiba Satellite laptop that was originally running Windows Vista 32-bit, but was upgraded by me to Windows 7 32-bit. On Windows Vista, all I would run was Firefox. I loved it!!! On Windows 7, I've noticed that Firefox kept hanging whenever I would try to download a file...from anywhere. I got so frustrated I went to try several different browsers. They all worked extremely quickly, whereas Firefox was working so slow, I could click on a link to a page, go get some lunch, come back and it still be trying to load the page. This was drastically unusual for Firefox. I used the other browsers and everything was fine for a week and then Windows Explorer started going down every few seconds. I went to the windows 7 forums and started looking. There were several suggestions on how to fix the problem, none of which worked for my compy. I tried restarting the compy in safe mode. That didn't help. I turned off every startup program except for the essentials and that DID work in keeping Windows Explorer from restarting. I then dove into the tedious task of trying to discern which 3rd party program was the offender. I removed everything from my compy that had been downloaded in the last ten days (well before the windows explorer issue, but not before the firefox issue). That didn't work either. I tried replacing an explorer file, which didn't work either. There were several other things I tried, as well, but nothing worked. Then, I saw a post that Firefox had caused the problem for one person. I went in and did as was suggested and completely removed Firefox and all associated files. Unfortunately, this worked. I haven't had any more trouble with windows explorer restarting. My big problem is, however, I can't run Firefox!!! And I LOVE Firefox!!! It's spoiled me! I hate Internet explorer, which is what I'm forced to run now. I've tried Safari and Google Chrome and don't like either one of those, either. I want my Firefox back! But if it's not working 100% it's less frustrating to be forced to live with the Internet Explorer. I'm going insane, here! Does anyone have any suggestions? I tried clearing out browser history, changing download files and a couple of other things and nothing worked with the Firefox to get it going better before I started having the Windows Explorer difficulty and had to completely erase the Firefox program. If I've missed any info, please don't hesitate to ask!! I'm happy to supply whatever I know about the issue!!

uninstalled firefox ....deleted all files still remaining under mozilla firefox directory in program files ... to avoid having to reprogram all my settings, reisntall all addons as well .. I did not remove anything from mozilla firefox that is stored in either appdata or under the windows users directory (if any)
... the as suggested reinstalled the latest version of the firefox browser using the link you provided in the email ..; tested and several issues still remain present and unresolved ....
so please this is urgent or I will have to jump browsers and start using chrome .. because we work 14 hours a day 6 (sometimes 7) days a week, to get ready for the launch of our newest venture and we cannot lose that much days on browser related issues ... so please instead of putting me through week long step process .. of do this .. do that .. can you please actually look into the issue from your end .. I use firefox for so many, many years thta I deserve this kind of support .. thnx Robert

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Assuming this is not the first time you have used your Apple TV
You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Also try restarting the router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
If the problem persists, try a restore, you may want to try the previous procedures several times before doing this.
If restoring from the Apple TV doesn't help, try restoring from iTunes using a USB cable.
If this is a new Apple TV, in addition to trying the above, it may also be that your network router is not allowing access to the timeserver, check that your router allows access over port 123.

After transfer to new computer iTunes can't find original files-won't play

I transferred my iTunes from my old computer to my new one using the protocol described in iTunes help; using my iPod as a hard disk. My iPod is configured for windows and the new and old computers are windows based.
The problems:
Most but not all of my songs were transferred
- Many songs appearing in the iTunes library
will not play displaying the message, "iTunes cannot play selected songs because it cannot fing the orignial file Would you like to locate it?". Trying to locate the file does not help.
- My playlists, although transferred, are incomplete

While syncing iPhone 4 (after OS 5 update) to itunes, I get the following message; syncing genius data to "my phone" (step 7 of 7) waiting for data to copy. problem is it just sits there. anyone else?

While syncing I get stuck on the last part of sync (part 7 of 7) syncing genius data to "my phone".
Is anyone else experiencing this?

Found this answer elsewhere,
"The Genius Data is a feature that can recommend apps, music and such, based on what you already have. The data is minuscule and not a size worth worrying about. It just updates to your iOS 5 device to carry over any new info on recent stuff you may have added."
