Edit Audio Timing Menu - Not Playing audio

Hi -
I have recorded my Audio in Audacity and am trying to IMPORT audio into Captivate 4. When I import this .wav file (that becomes a MP3 automatically from CP4) - and try to Edit Audio Timing to set my slides with the audio - I cannot get it to play any sound.
Mute is not on
There are wave form across the slides
The audio will play when I publish it (however, it plays across the wrong slides because I haven't been able to set them yet)
I have tried to import multiple different .wav files in different CP4 projects
I am using Windows 7/Office 10 - 32 bit
I have downloaded the fix for audio for Vista included in a blog post, still cannot play the sound
If you can help - please let me know!!! I am struggling as this is the last few steps before I give this project to my customer.

Edited footage from AE not playing correctly in PPro CS4

First- I'm a novice.
I captured footage from a Canon GL2 (shot on the Auto settings) into Premiere Pro CS4 that was shot in front of a blue screen. In the timeline, I selected the blue screen footage (avi file), photo for backgroundn (jpg), and audio, right clicked and choose the After Effects Composition feature to create a DynamicLink. In AE, used KeyLight to correct background. Then I clicked save. In PPro, the link is updated but when I play it, the video does not move with the audio. The video is much delayed in moving. How can I fix this? The frame rate is the same in both pre and post AE- 29.97fps.
Thanks-
Amy

Sorry I wasn't clear. I rendered the clip in AE and had the same video lag not matching the audio. I just went back and rendered the entire sequence in Premiere which resulted in the video in sync with the audio (yeah!) but all the video clips appeared to be a bit pixelated, not as crisp as prior to rendering. I may not be using the best way to render. I simply went up to the Sequence tab in the top menu, chose render entire work area.

Update/Edit Pop-Up Menu Not Saving

Hi All
First time here...
Is anyone else having trouble updating/editing pop-up menus on slices? I seem to be able to add only one new menu item at a time. If I add more, it doesn't save the changes. Now I'm trying to go back and change a link on one of the menu items and it doesn't remember it at all.
I'm fairly new to Fireworks but this isn't giving me a whole load of confidence in it...
Any ideas? Known bug?

What version of Fireworks are you using?
If you're building pop up menus for a real site, The FW ones are the worst option to use (even if they are working) because they are a PITA to maintain after the fact. As of CS4, Dreamweaver doesn't even support native editing of the menus, so you have to go back to FW (or dive into the code itself) to make changes.

Captivate 4 TTS Audio not playing in published or preview ok in edit

While viewing my project in published view, audio did not play on 5 of my 70 slides. (It worked fine previously). It played Ok in edit but no sound in preview or published. I tried to replace the audio using the Convert TTS button, and the audio would not replace the previous audio. Even removing the audio and dragging the new audio to the timeline would not work. I reinstalled Captivate 4 and TTS, and it seems to work fine on new a new projects but I can not seem to get it to fix my current project. Can anyone advise if I can fix those slides, or have I somehow corrupted those slides? It's a big project. Thanks in advanced

If I ever see dodgy behaviour like this on a slide, and it doesn't resolve easily with a reboot or republish, I just recreate the slides and delete the old ones. It's often far quicker to do this than muck around trying to fix them. If there is corruption in a slide, you don't want it anywhere in your project.

Itunes 11.1.3.8 shows a speaker icon in front of the seclection but it is not playing. the progress bar does not move. there are speakers attached to the system and all other programs do profuce an audio output.

Go to the Edit -> Preferences-> Playback
In The bottom section of the page click the drop down menu by Play Audio Using and select Windows Audio Session or something other than "Direct sound" or whatever it displays. Click Okay. This worked for me! I hope it works for you too!
Thanks,

Audio Tip: Do not edit audio in Presenter

After much wasted time trying to figure out why is was not playing back properly with missing audio I wanted to pass this tip along...
With Presenter 7.0.6 or 7.0.7 do not edit audio. This includes inserting silence and cutting out audio.
For some reason Presenter created MULTIPLE MP3 files for each slide. I have one slide that has 55 seconds of audio and Presenter has split that into 16 different MP3 files. Some are .5 seconds long. This seems to mess up the play back sometimes freezing up playback.
Record your audio using something else and import one MP3 for each slide and then add the slide timing.

Hey Frank. This is a good tip. Ever since Presenter changed the way they handle audio files, we have stopped recording our audio in Presenter; we all happen to have Captivate licenses on my team so we use it to record and edit all audio before we export to Presenter. If we have to make any changes, we also go back to Captivate and import the changed audio again. We tried working with the Adobe "support" for months on this issue and got nowhere. Each time you alter audio, even if you remove your breathing sounds, if divides the audio into two parts at the place where you changed it. So, yes, for longer pieces of audio, you end up with multiple files. Presenter does "merge" them together when you publish; however, it doesn't do a very good job of it. So every time the playbar reaches one of these split sections of the audio, it has a little glitch.
Now that you can record audio in PowerPoint and since the PowerPoint integration is so much better in Captivate, we will be dropping our Presenter licences. We may keep one or two so we can update existing modules. Unfortunately when the product has too many glitches and the support is not good (we had Gold or Platinum support too), you can't afford to stay with the product. We've used it for about 6 years.

Trying to make a disc.img from an iMovie project get the mssage that some of the audio clips are not available. The clips still show as green bars in the project but do not play.

I successfully made a disc.img and then burned a DVD of the project but found an error in a title. Went back to the project, corrected the error, and tried to create a new disc.img but got the message that some of the audio tracks were unavailable. They still show as green bars in the project but do not play. Tried deleting and reinstalling them with no success. They do play in iTunes and in the iMovie editing pane
Thank you

... The goal is a ScrollPane that automatically wraps the text inside it. I've just about got it, but I have one thing that's not working. If I just put the JTextArea{s} in as the Editor, then you lose the any text that doesn't fit inside whatever the initial size was. Instead, I put the JTextAreas inside a JScrollPane which works fine, except that I still have to determine the size of the JScrollPane in advance. I would like to make each Editor/JScrollPane start out with just a single line of text and expand until it reaches a certain small number of lines.
... What am I missing?THE BASICS. See if this isn't what you are trying to do.

    f.setBounds(0, 0, 400, 300);
    f.setDefaultCloseOperation(f.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    f.setVisible(true);
}OP, your code was too long and complicated for me to compile and run. However, aren't you forgetting the two simple methods <tt>JTextArea.setLineWrap()</tt> and <tt>JTextArea.setWrapStyleWord()</tt>? Furthermore, I absolutely see no need for you to extend SWING components for demonstration this simple -- that is, if I understand your problem correctly.

RAM preview audio will not play through bluetooth headphones

I am using bluetooth headphones (Jaybird Freedom Sprint) to try and edit audio/video in after effects. However, when I go to Preferences>Audio Output Mapping and choose "Freedom Sprint" and click OK, close the preference window, and it will automatically go back to the default "Built in Output" when I open it back up. It will only play the sound through the Mac Pro tower I am using. Is there a way to get the headphone option output to stay permanently?? Is there a reason why it is not staying selected? Another thing I forgot to mention is that all other sounds work (like iTunes, volume up/down) through the headphones except for the audio RAM preview in After Effects. How can I disable the audio from playing through the tower? Very frustrating!
BTW - the only time headphones actually work is when they are plugged into the tower. These ones obviously can't be plugged in.
Thanks! (Screenshots provided for help)

Thanks! I definitely did try that first... (trying to find a solution with the headphones). You can't find any info about them online/their website. Regardless though, After Effects will not allow me to play the audio output through any other device except for the Mac Pro tower - even playing it through the LCD Cinema Display won't work.
Thanks for your reply

Audio Tracks will not play

Hi there,
I'm using FCP 7 for a project that was originally edited in Final Cut 6 (I had to switch to 7 because BOTH my computers at home have crashed today which use FCP6, now I'm up at my office and have to use 7 - bad day, I know).
I'm trying to do some sound edits and only one audio track is playing (tracks 3 and 4) which are the source audio from the XDCAM Footage (note, these tracks have not been soloed - if that's a word). All my other tracks are not working. When played they produce no sound, but the audio meters to the right are moving. When played in quicktime, iTunes, or Finder they do indeed still work.
Audio Output has been set to Default, though I've also tried Built-in Audio Output. I'm using headphones, but it also does not play through the computer. I've also tried speakers. All other audio on the computer is fine - my volume is up.
Sometimes I can get tracks one and two to play after re-rendering.
RT is set to Unlimited, but it also doesn't work with Safe RT.
Any insight into this issue would be much appreciated!
Thanks

Go to Sequence Settings...then the AUDIO TAB. How many tracks of audio do you have? More than 2 and STEREO?
If you right-click on the track patch area on the timeline, you can assign these tracks to audio ouputs...are they set to anything other than 1 or 2?

I downloaded and audio book from itunes on my computer and it will not play

I downloaded Mansfield Park audio edition from itune to my laptop. I download went well but it will not play on my laptop. I have even tried deleteing book and re-downloading but same thing happens.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

The audio in app videos does not play. It used to so I think it is an ios6 problem.

Video will not play, yet audio does.

Like the header says, all of a sudden I go to work on a project I've never had trouble with and the video will not play; it is frozen wherever the cursor is. Yet the audio does play. I've tried clearing cache, clearing premiere cache, gone all over the internet to try and find an answer, of course India is closed right now, so no help there, not that they really give it anyway. So I'm asking if anyone might have experienced this one and figured it out despite Adobe. I'm on a PC with Windows 8 and terabytes and terabytes of storage; plenty of space left on disc, too. As I said; this has never been even a hint of a problem Just started up today. This even beats most Adobe "beta testing" problems they heap on us unsuspecting sheep. So I'm completely flummoxed. A prize to whoever knows what's up with this! It's a new one on me... Thanks in advance to whichever genius knows the answer! :-)
[Please choose only a short description for the thread title.]

OK, I found the answer by myself and wish to share it with those having the same issue. It turns out that the saved workspace can corrupt allowing audio to play, while video remains frozen. The fix is to change the workspace. Go to WINDOW, after creating a new style workspace and save the new workspace. Problem fixed. Also, if there are already a number of other saved workspaces that involve video you can simply change to that one and it will be fixed. Delete the corrupt workspace. That's it! This was discovered through a simple process of elimination which proves that bugs really can surface anywhere for no intuitive reason. Hope this helps you!

ITunes 11.1 on Windows 8 will not play/rip audio CDs

Problem:
I cannot play or rip audio CDs using iTunes on Windows 8. iTunes does not show any errors. It recognizes that I've put in an audio CD with tracks (and, in fact, matched the tracks in the iTunes database). When I click the Play button, it just skips from one song to the next.
Stats:
- OS: Windows 8 Media Edition/64-bit
- BDRW: LG WH14NS40
- iTunes: 11.0.1.126
Background:
I built a computer and installed a BDRW. The BDRW uses Windows drivers, so no additional software was installed.
The burner reads CD/DVD data and video just fine (haven't tested with BluRay yet).
When I put an audio CD in, I couldn't listen to it in either iTunes or Windows Media Player.
After following the directions here -- http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-pictures/dvdcd-player -not-playing-audio-cds-win8-laptop/791e04c0-628e-42a8-8014-43cc782511a4 -- I could hear it on Windows Media Player, but not on iTunes.
I could not rip any music using iTunes: all it did was create a bunch of 1kb files.
Question:
How could I have iTunes play Audio CDs again?
Thanks in advance.

Correction: iTunes 11.1.0.126, not 11.0.1.126

Captivate 6 Audio not playing in preview

I have been inserting audio recordings into my Captivate 6 project slides with no problem. I inserted them, clicked play, and they worked. This morning, however, I found none of my audio would play when I click Play at the bottom of my Timeline. It will play from the slide audio window when I double click the audio. It will play when I click the Preview button under the Insert Menu. So why will it not play from the play bar under the timeline? Any Ideas?
Thanks,
Darin

Hi there
When this happens to you next time, perhaps it would be helpful to double check a place you may have clicked and not realized it. Sure, clobbering the preferences nailed it, but that's a bit like using a bazooka to kill the fly in the room.
Too late now, but my guess is that this is what happened.
If you look at the Timeline area you should see a small speaker icon as shown below:
It's easy to click this and there isn't much of an indication you have muted the slide. My guess is that you managed to click this earlier. Too bad you had to clobber preferences to get it back.
Cheers... Rick

Background Audio not playing in Captivate 4

I imported a background audio track to my Adobe Captivate project, and I can see it in the background audio menu, however, when I preview or publish the project, it does not play. When I am in the import menu, it plays, but only there. I have done this many times before without issue. Any ideas?

Hi there
I am not sure if I understood the problem correctly. I tried to add a background audio to a test project and it worked fine for me in preview and publish.
When you say "I can see it in the background audio menu" are you meaning the following?
Audio->Background Audio... ==> Audio Background Dialog opens up and the audio track is shown properly. In library, the use count of this audio is non-zero and when you right click on the audio and select usage, "Project" is listed as one of the users.
When you say "When I am in the import menu, it plays, but only there", which import menu are you taking about?
Can't the audio be played from the library preview or from audio properties dialog or from Audio Background dialog?
Do you have this problem with any project that you are creating or is the problem happening in one particular project only? If it is only a particular project, can you share the CP project?
Cheers
Siva
