CP5: Close Project causing problems

I have two problems, which I think may be related.
In order to give users control over closing a project, I have a 'Finish' button on the second-to-last slide, which goes to the last slide, which is only 1/2 second long, and should then close, since the "end" preferences are set for Close Project. I did it this way because there is no action for "Close Project."
1. This worked fine in Captivate 4, but in CP5 the projects are not closing, and the X button on the Navigation bar doesn't work. The only way to close it is to close the window.
2. The LMS's don't recognize the project as complete.
Is this a bug, something I'm missing, or is it to do with SCOs vs. Courses?

Hi,
Just following up on Rod's post...
The problem I'm having with the LMSs doesn't happen with the projects created in Captivate 4 - they close correctly, and register in the LMSs as completed.
One LMS is a variation on Moodle; the other is one that is used primarily in law firms. Both (I think) run the content in a separate window - I know one does.
As I've said in my responses to Rick, I've run them from a web server as tests - mine don't close, and both his test projects did.
Any more suggestions? This is really serious for us.

Captivate CS4 - As3: Close Project problem

I've just built a project with some As3 animations. Hence I saved the project as an As3 project. The problem is that at the end of the last slide, the project freezes rather than shuts down. I have taken care to select the "Close Project " option rather than the Stop option. But the project does not close automatically. Also the Exit button does not work (as intended).
More details:

IE7 browser
I've looked at some previous queries too on this forum but none seem to have an answer to the problem.

Withdraw the question.
It seems to run fine on my LMS but the issue is with IE, I guess.

Premiere Pro CS6 6.0.2 hangs on Close Project

I have a project that I was working on today that seems to have somehow become corrupted. Everytime I open it, and then attempt to Close Project, premiere will stop responding.
I've tried creating a new project, and when I import the sequence from the older project file, save, and and attempt to Close Project, premiere stops responding...
A couple of other projects seem fine. So somehow, this project must have become damaged or something.
How can I debug this issue so i can get the sequence back to keep working?
Thanks,

I was able to find an auto-save version that only lost me some of the work I had done, so thanks for the suggestion.
As I began redoing the lost work, I reproduced the problem. So I spent the last hour narrowing down what is causing it, and have found that an audio track that I am imported will reproduce the issue every time.
I can even start a new project, and import that single audio track, and cause premiere to hang. It's clearly a bug, but I'm not sure how to figure out what's going on.
The track was an MP3, so I brought it into audition and exported it as an AIFF file. But importing that file causes the same issue.
What's the best way to get Adobe to look at this. It's a simple problem to reproduce, and since it causes the app to hang, it probably should be fixed. I also tried to just remove that audio item from the latest project file, but that doesn't help. Once I import the track, any attempts to save the project will result in a hang.
Thanks in advance,

JTree + FK with same value causing problems

Hi
I can't figure this out. If I create biz components for 2 tables having a parent-child relationship and a jTree with appropriate rules, things are ok only if the parent's id are of different values than the child. When parent.id and child.id have the same values the jTree seems to recursively fire valueChanged() at strange times.
Example:
CREATE TABLE PARENT
PARENT_ID NUMBER CONSTRAINT PARENT_ID_NN NOT NULL,
PARENT_NAME VARCHAR2(40 BYTE),
CONSTRAINT PARENT_C_ID_PK
PRIMARY KEY
(PARENT_ID)
CREATE TABLE CHILD
CHILD_ID NUMBER CONSTRAINT CHILD_ID_NN NOT NULL,
CHILD_NAME VARCHAR2(40 BYTE),
PARENT_ID NUMBER,
CONSTRAINT CHILD_C_ID_PK
PRIMARY KEY
(CHILD_ID)
ALTER TABLE CHILD ADD (
CONSTRAINT PARENT_FK
FOREIGN KEY (PARENT_ID)
REFERENCES PARENT (PARENT_ID));
INSERT INTO PARENT VALUES (1, 'Parent 1');
INSERT INTO PARENT VALUES (2, 'Parent 2');
INSERT INTO PARENT VALUES (3, 'Parent 3');
INSERT INTO CHILD VALUES (100, 'Child A', 1);
INSERT INTO CHILD VALUES (200, 'Child B', 2);
INSERT INTO CHILD VALUES (300, 'Child C', 3);
I use the JDev 10.1.2 wizard to create biz components and test the AppMod to make sure the link works. Now I create a blank panel and drag over the ParentView data control. Using the jTree tree binding editor I create two rules:
1) DataCollectionDef.ParentView - DisplayAttribute.ParentName - BranchRuleAccessor.ChildView
2) DataCollectionDef.ChildView - DisplayAttribute.ChildName
Now I add a tree selection listener:
jTree1.addTreeSelectionListener(new TreeSelectionListener()
public void valueChanged(TreeSelectionEvent e)
DefaultMutableTreeNode selectedNode = (DefaultMutableTreeNode)jTree1.getLastSelectedPathComponent();
if (selectedNode != null)
System.out.println(selectedNode.getUserObject().toString());
When I run my panel and watch in JDev everything is fine, i.e. nothing is printed to the screen when it first loads and when I click a node, the correct UserObject prints.
Here's the rub, now I close the panel and update my child table as follows:
UPDATE pdssuser.child SET child_id = 1 WHERE child_id = 100;
UPDATE pdssuser.child SET child_id = 2 WHERE child_id = 200;
UPDATE pdssuser.child SET child_id = 3 WHERE child_id = 300;
This time, when I run my panel, the console shows that valueChanged() has been fired 3 times on load:
Parent 1
Parent 2
Parent 3
This behavior is causing problems with my real tree.
I haven't had any luck finding threads about this. Any ideas?
Thanks
John

ok, last one (i hope)
The same issue occurs with 10.1.2.1
...but changing the location where I add the treeSelectionListener to after setBindingContext() seems to fix the problem.
The second call to panelBinding.refreshControl() in setBindingContext() (the one after the call to jbinit()) is what fires the valueChanged events. Somewhere in there, DCBindingContainer.java or DCIteratorBinding.java, the treeSelectionListener is hearing that a value changed (maybe due to a query execution?). I guess the jTree1.setModel(...) call in jbinit() simply sets up the tree but the VO queries described in the Branch Rule accessors are executed on the refreshControl.....i'm out of my comfort zone here and may be confusing you with my "troubleshooting" so I'll just tell you my work-around.
So to fix it I add the treeSelectionListener in my main method (not jbinit()) after the setBindingContext() has been called.
I still have no idea why the FK triggers this behavior...but at least it's working.
* the main method
public static void main(String [] args)
try
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
catch(Exception exemp)
exemp.printStackTrace();
Panel1 panel = new Panel1();
panel.setBindingContext(JUTestFrame.startTestFrame("DataBindings.cpx", "null", panel, panel.getPanelBinding(), new Dimension(400, 300)));
panel.revalidate();
// Now add the treeSelectionListener
panel.addSelectionListener();
* the JbInit method
public void jbInit() throws Exception
this.setLayout(borderLayout1);
this.add(jTree1, BorderLayout.CENTER);
jTree1.setModel((TreeModel)panelBinding.bindUIControl("ParentView1", jTree1));
// DON'T ADD treeSelectionListener here
* Add the selection listener to the tree
public void addSelectionListener()
jTree1.addTreeSelectionListener(new TreeSelectionListener()
public void valueChanged(TreeSelectionEvent e)
DefaultMutableTreeNode selectedNode = (DefaultMutableTreeNode)jTree1.getLastSelectedPathComponent();
if (selectedNode != null)
System.out.println(selectedNode.getUserObject().toString());
}

The results show that you have a proxy server set and this can often cause problems with iTunes.
The proxy setting can be accessed in Internet options>>Connections>>LAN Settings.
Try un-checking the proxy server check box.
It might also be a good idea to run a malware check if you didn't know you had the proxy server set.

Does any one know about the small Hardrive that "The Power Company" is producing, sponsored by Indiegogo, for small Apple mobile devices (iPhones, iPods, etc,). Do they work or cause problems for the device or iCloud storage?

Does any one about the small hard drive that "the Power Company" is bringing out as a crowdsourced project by Indiegogo? Does it work, does it cause problems for IOS, iPOD Touch or iCloud?

I have not heard that mentioned here before. What does the Indiegogo page say?

Does " Close Project without Saving " key assignment work at all ?

I'm using Logic Express 8. I'd really like to be able to close a project without seeing the " do I want to save the project " box.
There is a function to do that in the Keypress Commands, but it seems broken. I've tried assigning several different keypress combinations to that function and all they do is crash Logic when I try to use them.
So, am I doing something wrong, missing something, or is that command broken ?
???

Come on, how hard would it be for someone out there to try this and let me know if it's my problem .. or a bug ?
Logic Express Preferences ... Key Commands .... Global Commands ... Close Project without Saving.... assign some key combo to that, then go back to a project and try it.
Oh, and then fill out the cute - report this to Apple- thing when it pops up after the crash so someone will fix this and I can move on

Does always using Force Quit to close programs make problems w/computer?

A friend was over and we were working on my iMac, and I used force quit to exit a couple of programs - and he gasped and said "Don't do that! It will cause problems with your machine!"
He sort of said something about directories - but ultimately I didn't understand why using force quit isn't the same as just closing, or why it would hurt my computer... Does anyone know?... My machine is running slow and has some quirks and I need to do a clean install because a system reinstall didn't help much. But I've also been downloading demos and trials right and left since I got it - which I've just found out is not a great idea and I've found out how to fix it from another forum.
So I don't know if what my friend says is true because I know I've done so many other weird things to my poor iMac out of sheer ignorance that it could be anything......
Is he right? Why wouldn't they give us that warning?
thanks -
maggie

The only time you should use Force Quit is when the application cannot be quit normally.
Why don't you just Quit the application?
Force Quit is not a good idea as all id does is stop the application very abruptly, it does not close down files properly or write away preference changes or any other items that should be written to the disk by the application. You stand a very high risk or corrupting the application, documents or your operating system by using Force Quit, especially when there is no need to do so.

Opening 2 projects causes end of FCP session.

I would like to use my 6 TB archive project to import files into another project via browser in FCP into timeline. Working on a new project, deciding to open the archive project causes messages as: *out of memory* and *handler error*, that´s the end of session.
Starting the big archive project first will work fine. WHY ???
I am asking because it is very uncomfortable starting the big archive project each time, not knowing wether I need it or not, cause it takes 9 minutes to start it.
Thanks for trying to understand my problem.
gerolini

That is a very large project file. Keep in mind that for FCP to be fast and responsive, it must load all the media, every transition and filter and all the sequences into active RAM. I would guess that you've pushed the application to its limit.
Is there any reason for this huge project? Could you break it down into sub-projects? Throw away old and outdated sequences and render files?
If I was in your lederhosen, I'd copy the file a number of times, in a way that made sense to you. Then, in each copy, get rid of things that do not pertain to your chosen "subject." For example, I'd name one sub-project Munich and delete everything that has no relation to Munich. And another "Trip to Brazil" and in that one delete Munich and everything else not related to Brazil.
Does that make sense? It might seem like a good idea to put EVERYTHING in one project file for ease of access, etc-- but if you've pushed the software to the limit, you are gaining exactly nothing.
Good luck.

My Mac is 15 months old and all of a sudden it has started resetting the time and date then I get a message saying not all apps will work because of the pre Jan date any help as to why ? Causing problems with wireless router.

My Mac book pro is 15 months old and now suddenly it has started resetting the date and time, causing problems with applications and my wireless access. Any suggestions as to why this is happening and how to fix it?

Seems the time isn't being saved to your computer correctly, it may be a corrupt file that isn't saving the time anymore.
You can move the
com.apple.systempreferences.plist
file out of your Users/Library/Preferences folder to the desktop and reboot.
then go to your System Preferences > Date and Time and set a time server close to your location (or in your time zone)
(trash the file on the desktop if no ill issues occur later on)
or you can follow/bookmark these support docs to reset your PRAM and SMC (and for future reference)

I don't remember exactly where OS X is keeping it time settings now, but I think one of those choices should help resolve your issue and won't hurt anything giving them a shot. Perhaps someone else could refresh my memory.

Each time the firefox will make com hangs awhile when ply a sound, after close firefox the problem solved.

When Firefox opened, and the system ply a sound, the com will hang awhile, but after I close Firefox, the problem solved itself, if I disable all plugins, the problem solved, can help check which plugins will cause this problem or this is Firefox problem???
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== ply a sound

I changed the setting, but unfortunately, this didn't fix the problem. This situation does seem to occur more, when I load or reload my eBay home page. I noticed that all data and information would go ahead and load, but the random ads bar would not immediately load and when I would left click anywhere on the page, Firefox would temporarily freeze, the page turns white, Firefox not responding will display, and then the banner would load and everything is fine. I'm wondering if it has something to do with my Flash Player. Any additional suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Reggie

Null values from DB2 cause problems

Hi,
I have another problem with database link to DB2 using IBM iSeries Access for Linux on 64 bit OEL5 with Oracle Database gateway and unixODBC 2.2.14.
DB link works. However, null values from DB2 cause problems. Date columns that are null on db2 return a date '30.11.0002', and character columns that are null return an error ORA-28528: Heterogeneous Services datatype conversion error.
isql returns correct results.
How can i fix this? Perhaps set some parameters for data conversion on the gateway?
Thank you.

If the driver is not fully ODBC level 3 compliant and misses functions, we're lost. But sometimes the drivers are ODBC level 3 compliant but miss the correct 64bit implementation. In those cases we can tell the gateway to use the 32bit ODBC level 3 standard by setting in the gateway init file:
HS_FDS_SQLLEN_INTERPRETATION=32

I want to uninstall ReloadEvery as I think it is causing problems however it is not in my list of Extensions or Plugins yet it is clearly installed, I tried reinstalling FF but it was still there! How can I get rid of it?

I installed ReloadEvery a while ago and it seemed to be working fine however I am now having problems with FF crashing and weird things like pages not reloading and not being able to use the back button etc
I have already tried uninstalling and reinstalling FF and upgrading to FF 4.
When I upgraded to FF 4 I was still having problems even though I didn't have any Extensions installed at all, or so I thought. I noticed that ReloadEvery was still installed. I was rather puzzled as I had done a clean install of FF 4. I want to remove ReloadEvery to see if it will solve my problems.
I have also tried following the help on the FF Troubleshooting about manually uninstalling Extensions but again ReloadEvery not listed there yet I am still able to use it in FF!
I want to get rid of it!! I really need some help please.

'Close Project' in Captivate 4 not working

Hi,
I have a number of projects where I set the preferences to close the project, and it works in some and not others.
I have a slide with a 'Done' button. When the user clicks it, it goes to another slide with nothing on it but the background and a text caption from the previous screen, and it is set for only one second. Some of these projects close perfectly; others delete the text caption and leave the project open.
Any ideas?
Thanks, as always.

Hmmm, it was intended to show you that you simply cannot rely on the different means of closing the window. Close Project and the Exit button are essentially the same action, no? Perhaps I should amend the note so it specifically also mentions the action of Close Project.
The thing is, unless you are presenting your Captivat using EXE format, you are seeing a very generic overall issue with closing a browser window. And closing browser windows is inherently fraught with issues and seldom works as one would expect. The only way to make it work as you want most of the time is to ensure you always open the window using JavaScript so it's a child window. When you open in this manner you have more control over the behavior of the child window and can usually close it at will.
Cheers... Rick

FF 3.6 AND 5 on same Mac, 1 profile - can I uninstall 5 without causing problems running 3.6 or with the profile?

I upgraded from 3.6.16 to 5, but don't like how 5 handles tabs (auto reloading 'problem loading' tabs when internet connection is reestablished). So I installed 3.6 in a separate folder, e.g. both versions are on this computer. I went back to using 3.6, and let it upgrade to either 3.6.18 or 19 (don't recall which & it's not open right now). I'm having problems with it using too much CPU & Memory, and not sure if that's a difference between 3.6.16 & 3.6.18/19, or if having 5 on the same computer even if closed could be causing the problem.
Can I uninstall 5 without causing problems with the 3.6 version and the single profile?

If you haven't tried this, give it a try. It worked for me, hopefully it will work for you. In your version 3 firefox, disable all extensions, I had two plugins (doubletwist and joost, disable those if you have them). Then install firefox 5 by overwriting your version 3 firefox. It should work fine after that. I tried everything before, I gave that a last ditch shot. Oh yeah, before you install firefox 5, clear your cache of everything just to be sure.
Hopefully that helps.
