Button is not working properly- why not?

Hello Everyone!
I have searched the forums for the answer for my question, and I have read the "read this before you post" information, and I can't find the answer to my issue/question.
I have a Captivate 4 project I have started, and I have inserted buttons on the slides (pretty basic task!). My issue is that the buttons I put on slides don't work 25% of the time. For example, I have a slide with a "next" button. I made sure to set the button up to "continue to next slide" when clicked. I go to view the project, and click "next" and nothing. *Sigh*
Then on another slide, I have put a transparent button over an image. I click on the transparent button over the image and nothing. It does nothing. I have saved the project, closed it, reopened it, and the buttons still don't work.
I recheck the properties of the buttons, and everything seems to be configured properly, but yet they do not work. Very frustrating. I can get most of my buttons to work properly, but randomly buttons are not working. What am I missing here?
Otherwise, I have Captivate 4, and my company probably won't be upgrading to Captivate 5.5. After reading how Captivate 4 projects won't open in Captivate 5.5, I'm fine with that decision. We have too many projects created in Captivate 4, to not be able to open them with 5.
Thanks for the help anyone can provide me!

Hello again
Okay, here is a trip up spot. When you configured your button or click box, did you also maybe clear the "Visible" check box? Many users misunderstand that beastie and clear it thinking "well, I don't want the user to see the button or click box".
Clearing it is a misguided attempt. The option is used when you wish to control things using Advanced Actions.
Also, is there a question slide between where you are and where you want to be? If so, sometimes your Quiz settings will prohibit jumping to a slide beyond the unanswered question.
Cheers... Rick

Sleep button dose not work

Sleep button dose not work properly ,

Have you tried a soft reset? Hold down the Home button and the Power button on the phone until you see the Apple logo appear, then carefully release the buttons allowing the phone to boot back up.

I phone 3gs home button is not working properly

Hi Folks..
From the last few days my I phone 3GS is giving me a hard time.. Its HOME BUTTON is not working properly. Have to press it 2-3 times and have to press it hard to make it work. I am now running 5.1 iOS, it had the same problem with 5.0.1 iOS too. Can you suggest me what to do??? Do i need to take it to the service centre????

I've just noticed this too, after updating my 3GS to iOS 5.1. It seems to be happening off and on, but it is more of a problem when the phone has set locked and idle for a few minutes.
I usually wake it from sleep with the power button, unlock it, and wait for the ability to use the home button.
It might be worth it to take it to the Genius Bar or at least try to live chat with Apple Customer Service.
I feel your pain.

HT1349 my home button will not work properly... I have to hold it down several times for it to go to the home screen

my home button will not work properly... I have to hold it down several times for it to go to the home screen

I would try a restore just to see if it could be something software related, but if that doesn't work I would recommend taking to an Apple Store to see if it is a serious hardware issue and if it is, assuming you're in warranty, then they would be able to replace your phone.

Hello My ipads Power button is not working properly when I press it once it shows option to turn off instead of locking and some other display problems like it suddenly lockes down or display disappears ...Please help. Thank You

Hello My ipads Power button is not working properly when I press it once it shows option to turn off instead of locking and some other display problems like it suddenly lockes down or display disappears ...Please help. Thank You

Thanks for that information!
I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

After I updated to iOS 7.0.2 my lock button is not working properly

After I updated to iOS 7.0.2 my lock button is not working properly I push the button many times and after many failed attempts it locks and sometimes not. I had to use the accesibility tool to lock it manually from the screen, this is really annoying.

I guess it is.
Do you have a question, or are you just sharing your experience with us?

HT4061 my iphone 4s is in a coma, my sleep button does not work and when i connect it to my charger nothing happens, help!

my iphone 4s unexpectedly stopped working, it wont turn on and my sleep key has not worked in months so i am unable to reboot the phone by holding the sleep key and home button . all i see is a black screen that is lit. when i connect it to the charger nothing happens. please help me!

There's no software fix for a hardware issue. Make an appointment at any Apple store, an out of warranty replacement is US $199 for an iPhone 4S. It that's too much money, find a third-party repair service. But, be aware, if a third-party touches your phone, you void all support from Apple & forfeit the right to an out of warranty replacement. Also, since Apple does not sell parts, there is no way to determine if any parts used to fix your phone are genuine or knock offs.

Maximize/minimize and close buttons do not work properly

Suddenly the buttons at the top right are not working properly. There is no change in appearance when hovering the mouse over it. This does not occur immediately after I open firefox but shortly afterwards. I noticed by accident that if I open the options box and close it again these buttons will work for a while. It also applies to dialogue boxes that open up as well. I did not add any plugins, but I do believe there was a recent update for firefox installed. Thanks

Thanks, however I am on release 18.0. I am not quite sure yet but I think the problem may have solved itself. Since I first posted if happened a few times but nothing over the past couple of hours so perhaps the issue resolved itself. I'll repost if it does. Thanks again
