Import failure between Powerpoint 10 and Captivate 1.01.1451

Hello from France,
I use File > Import > PPT slides in Captivate 1.01
Then in the "WHERE?" box, I choose the place in the cp file
where to import the PPT slides
Then I click OK and the box closes.
Then I see that a box appears very very shortly, whose
content i can hardly see, but I read something like "creating
thumbnails". Then, nothing at all.
So I wonder, why me
? is CPT 1.01 able to import from PPT 10 ? Or is
there another explanation ?
Thanks for you attention, and you help,
Nathalie

Hi Nathalie
I'm not sure if Captivate is capable of importing from
PowerPoint 10. Maybe that's the issue. But your description sounds
like a "Privileges" issue with the PC. See if IT can relax your
privileges a bit.
If that isn't possible, you might still be able to get your
PowerPoint into Captivate by setting the PowerPoint up to play in a
window. Then size Captivate recording area so it surrounds the
PowerPoint and record the PowerPoint as it plays, just as you would
record an application demonstration.
Cheers... Rick

  • Personal File Sharing failure between Leopard MBP and Tiger iMac

    Hi,
    I am attempting to give the iMac access to files on the Leopard using Personal File Sharing. Personal File Sharing is turned on on the MBP. The firewall on the MBP has been variously set for Essential Services Only and turned off. The firewall on the iMac is off (it has no internet connection). I have tried both encrypted and unencrypted ad-hoc wireless networking on various channels. I have tried ethernet. The results are always the same:
    1) the MBP will appear in the Network folder of the iMac, but any attempt to connect fails. I am unable even to reach a Drop Box.
    2) the iMac appears in the Shared section of the Sidebar on the MBP, and connections of all kind work without problems
    I have no internet connection in the house and am unable to try connecting both Macs to the same WiFi network for testing purposes. I have tried pinging each machine from the other using Network Utility, with failure reported in every case ---however, I'm led to believe this is not unusual in small network circumstances.
    One other piece of info that may be relevant: I am also struggling to have my iPod touch found by my MBP when attempting to use the WebDAV protocol to share files with Files Lite. My iMac connects to Files Lite without issue. Stanza Desktop also refuses to find Stanza. Cyberduck will find Files Lite on the network from the MBP (the only app to recognise it in any way from my MBP), but will consistently fail to connect. Perhaps this is related?
    Any help would be welcome. I can provide more information as needed. I have only offered the information I thought would be useful, and that fits within my layman's understanding of networking.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Well, it's all working fine now. Seems I /hadn't/ tried turning off the firewall on the MBP. The PFS now works with the firewall off or with "Set access for specific services and applications", but not "Essential services only".
    *shrugs* I was so sure I'd tried it with the firewall off…
    So, thanks! All is now kushti. I may have to grumble to myself a little (and ultimately to Apple) about the lack of co-operation between the firewall and the Sharing prefs, and what I perceive as a poverty (or at least poor layout) of information in the firewall settings pane, though. I mean, why can't the firewall automatically choose the correct setting depending on the Sharing preferences? Or, at least, provide a pop-up that such a change is necessary? Hmm…
    Ta!
    S.
    PS: FYI, "guest" sharing was already enabled, presumably by default.

  • Important differences between oracle 10g and 11g

    Hi friends, can anyone tell me (pointwise) what are the major (and minor) differences between Oracle 10g and 11g.
    Please point me to some documents if possible.
    Thanks in advance

    The name of the link says it all: "top_features."
    In short it is Oracle's list of what they have for marketing and sales reasons designated "top features."
    It is not intended to be, and is not, a complete list of features. Often the features Oracle does not
    talk about are the most important.
    Let me give you some examples. I have never seen Oracle announce DBMS_XPLAN as a new feature
    yet you should not run an explain plan without it. Neither have I ever seen Oracle announce the new
    NO_DATA_NEEDED predefined exception. I have listed literally hundreds of new features you will not
    find in Oracle's new features docs.
    I did a presentation at OpenWorld this year as part of the unconference titled "New Features in
    Database 11gR2 that Oracle will not announce." It was easy to prepare a one hour presentation with
    little fear of being proved incorrect. As I turned out only one of the features I presented was mentioned
    by Oracle.
    You can find the presentation slides here:

  • Powerpoint Presentation and Captivate

    I have finished a Powerpoint presentation that I would like
    to try and put into Captivate to help with recording and laying
    down narration, but have run into problems. It does not record the
    transitions or animation I have put into the Powerpoint
    presentation and chops it up. Is there a way to record through
    Capitvate without having a chopped up movie?

    Hi there bsostre
    I have a question. Why do you want to turn Powerpoint into
    Captivate for the simple task of adding narration if you have
    already done all the hard work in Powerpoint?? My suggestion is to
    rather download a programme such as "Audacity" to record and edit
    your narrations and then attach those narrations to the relevant
    Powerpoint slides with autostart on slide opening. The only other
    thing to do then would be to set the timings of your slides for a
    smooth transition aligned to the narration.
    Please shout again if this is "NOT HELPING DUDE"
    Cheers
    Andrew
    PS Audacity is freeware sound editing programme

  • Export/import compatibility between 2.0 and 2.2

    If I upgrade my development environment to Apex 2.2 whenever it is released, can I export apps/pages from there and import into a Apex 2.0 environment?
    Both export files have the following in them.
    -- This date identifies the minimum HTML DB version required to import this file.
    wwv_flow_api.set_version(p_version_yyyy_mm_dd=>'2005.05.01');So I guess the answer is yes, but I don't want to make any assumptions that would prevent me from deploying new/changed functionality into my existing 2.0 Production environment.
    Can someone from Oracle comment on this?
    Thanks

    Vikas,
    Yes, in most cases that will work just fine. There are two options on the application export page that would make it so you can't import your application in APEX 2.0, "Export Deployment Attributes" and "Export Comments". Selecting either of those will include metadata in the export which wasn't around in 2.0, so they affect the import compatibility.
    Otherwise, apps and pages should be compatible with 2.0.

  • Importing sound from powerpoint 13 to Captivate 7

    I am converting powerpoint 2013 using the high defintion feature.  Is there a reason this is not working.  I thought captivate 7 converted all animations and audio.  Is it related to my selection during the recvording process in powerpoint related to sound file type.  Cna this be avoided in the future when I record in powerpoint?  Thanks for your help. 

    I've seen this issue reported by others. Unfortunately I have no explanation for why it doesn't seem to work. Earlier I tested by recording and importing to create a project from PPT and my audio came in just fine. I'm using a Windows 7 PC with Office 2010.
    I know that doesn't help you resolve the issue for the moment, but you do have options here.
    Option one is to use Captivate's "video recording" feature and capture system sounds. Then play the PPT and record it as it plays using Captivate.
    Option two is to locate the .PPTX file using Windows file explorer. Copy it and rename the copy from .PPTX to .ZIP. From there you are able to extract the assets (such as the desired audio). Then you may add the audio separately to either an object or as slide narration in Adobe Captivate.
    Hope fhis helps a smidge... Rick

  • Socket communication failure between Java applet and C++ application

    I have a java applet that connects to a C++ application via Java's ServerSocket and Socket objects. THe C++ application is using the Winsock 2 API. The applet and application are running on an NT workstation (SP 6) and using IE (5.5) For a very simple C++ test applications the communictions work fine. Once more code gets added to the C++ application the portion of the socket that C++ listens to seems to close. Upon performing a recv call the return value is a zero. Microsoft insists this is a sign the Java side has shut down the socket. The Java applet can still receive messages from the C++ app but C++ cannot receive responses from the Java side. Java throws no exceptions and an explicit check of the socket shows no errors. Again, what puzzles me is that it works for simple C++ applications. Are there any known conflicts between Java and C++ in this regard?
    I have inlcuded the basic java code segments below.
    / run Method.
      * This method is called by the Thread.start() method. This
      * method is required for the implementation of the Runnable interface
      * This method sets up the server side socket communication and
      * contiuously loops looking for requests from a external
      * socket.
      * @author Chris Duke
      public void run(){
         // create socket connections
         boolean success = false;
         try {
             cServerSocket = new ServerSocket(cPortID);
             System.out.println("Waiting for client to connect...");
             cClientSocket = cServerSocket.accept();
             System.out.println("Client connected");
             // Create a stream to read from the client
             cInStream = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
               cClientSocket.getInputStream()));
             // Create a stream to write to the client       
             cOutStream = new PrintWriter(
               cClientSocket.getOutputStream(), true);
             success = true;
         }catch (IOException e) {
             System.out.println("CommSocket:Run - Socket Exception(1) " + e);
             success = false;
         // if the socket was successfully created, keep the thread running
         while (success){
             try{
                // check socket to see if it is still available for reading
                if (cInStream != null && cInStream.ready()){
                    // check for an incoming message
                    String message = ReceiveMessage();
                    // Send message to listeners
                    Event(message);
                if (cInStream == null){
                    success = false;
                    System.out.println("CommSocket:Run - shutdown");
             }catch (IOException e){
                System.out.println("CommSocket:Run - Socket not ready exception");
                break;
    // SendMessage method -
      *  Sends a text message to a connected listener through port specified by portID
      * @author Chris Duke
      * @param  String message - This will be the message sent out through the server
      * socket's port specified by portID.
       public void SendMessage(String message){
          cOutStream.println(message);
          if (cOutStream.checkError() == true)
            System.out.println("SendMessage : Flush = Error");
          else{
            System.out.println("SendMessage : Flush - No Error");
       }

    a very simple C++ test applications the communictions work fine. Once more code gets added to the C++ application the portion of the socket that C++ listens to seems to close.
    This quite strongly implicates the extra code in the C++ App. The firstly thing I would try would be telnet. Try connecting to both versions of the C++ Application and manually reproducing a proper exchange.
    a recv call the return value is a zero. Microsoft insists this is a sign the Java side has shut down the socket.
    A correct implementation of recv should return the number of bytes received, or -1 for an error. A zero return indicates no bytes received not a socket closed/error. This sounds like FUD to me.
    Are there any known conflicts between Java and C++ in this regard?
    I can see no obvious faults, though the code is incomplete, I don't think it's an sockets implementation issue, at either end, it sounds more likely to be a protocol/handshaking bug in the C++ App.

  • Data transfer failure between iPhone 3G and 4

    Have just acquired an iPhone 4 and want to transfer the data from the old iPhone 3G to the new one. I followed this guide to try and achieve this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109
    I followed all the steps, installed the latest iTunes, upgraded the old phone's iOS and did a back up.
    When I got to step 4, there was a problem. I was prompted to restore an existing backup, and when I selected the old phone to back up to the new one, I got a message which said that the software on the NEW phone was too old and the backed up data could not be installed.
    I then updated the software on the new phone, and tried again. But now, there is no prompt when I plug in the new phone to restore an existing backup.
    Any suggestions how I can restore the backed up data from the old 3G model to the new iPhone 4?

    Go to iTunes > Preferences. Under the Devices tab for your iTunes preferences, is there more than one backup available and one for each iPhone which should be named differently? If so, when restoring your iPhone from an iPhone's backup, it will default to the backup for the iPhone you are restoring. You need to manually select from the backup for your previous iPhone when prompted.
    Regarding audio files as in iTunes music, no iTunes content is included with an iPhone's backup - no music, movies, tv shows, podcasts, or 3rd party apps. All iTunes content on your iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Photos transferred from your computer are not included with your iPhone's backup either and should remain on your computer.
    Although photos in the iPhone's Camera Roll are included with the iPhone's backup, photos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera and select photos imported from the Camera Roll can be transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process as with any other photos on your computer. When there are photos and/or videos in the Camera Roll, the iPhone is also detected as a digital camera when connected to a computer and should be treated as such - as with any other digital camera.
    Contacts are also included with the backup, but contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book application on your computer, and contacts should be available on your computer with or without an iPhone or any cell phone which can be lost or stolen. Not having contacts available on their computer seems to be very common for Windows users which is beyond me. Is this due to the constant virus, adware, and spyware concerns?

  • Problem while Importing photos between my iPhone and iPhoto?

    Dear all,
    Actually this is not a new issue, but I just think now on how to fix it.
    I've a Mac with iPhoto installed, and iPhone 4 with ios6 installed.
    I've chosen a specific key photo for every album in iPhoto, after importing these albums to photo app in iPhone, it appears with a different key photo in events tab.
    So, how to change the key photo in photo app in iPhone?
    Or how to import photos from iPhoto to the photo app with the same key photo for each album?
    Regards,
    Abdelaal,

    Sometimes it helps to remove the current "Importing" folder  from the iPhoto library package.
    See this post by LarryHN how to do it:

    When I copy and paste a powerpoint slide into Captivate the slide is blurry how do I fix that

    Have you tried importing it with standard workflow instead of coyping and pasting.
    Is the resolution of your powerpoint presentation and Captivate Project same, make sure it is same, else, it would rescale it to fit on the sldie, rescaling might detoriate the quality.

  • Difference between presenter and captivate?

    Could somebody explain the differences between Adobe
    Presenter and Captivate?

    Hi RazMcH and welcome to our community
    Presenter takes content you author in PowerPoint and creates
    a presentation out of it. So in this case, PowerPoint is your
    authoring medium. Presenter also provides a Table of contents and
    an area where you may insert a picture (head shot) of the person
    presenting and a bio if you like.
    Captivate content may be used on different slides of
    Presenter. Presenter doesn't record screen activity as Captivate
    does.
    Hopefully something there was helpful... Rick

  • Differences between suite products and standalones

    I understand that there are differences between the versions of Ps and Soundbooth bundled in the eLearning Suite and the standalone versions.
    Does anyone know if there's a complete list of the differences for both the eLearning Suite and Technical Communications Suite?
    Anything that's likely to be a showstopper if used with standalone versions?
    Thanks.

    I don't know about the list, but I can tell you, that the major  difference is the synchronization between standalone software and  captivate won't
    work Unless you do it manually In my case at the university where I work  we have Cs4 License and captivate 5 and they just won't synchronize  automatically you have to make the change in sound booth, Photoshop or  any  other software save the change and than do  F5 on in captivate or  completely  reload the element you've created for the change to occur. My question  would be is there a patch to emulate the connection between Cs4 and  Captivate? Cause I don't think the university I work for would buy  anther suite.

  • How to synchronise metadata between Lightroom catalogue and exif metadata (e.g. Orientation and rating)?

    Hi there,
    i have some third-party tools that also read my original photos that I use in my workflow. That is especially my private synology cloud, from which I can watch my images in the browser and in mobile devices like my iPhone/iPad.
    i Ido not want to export a second copy of the pictures from Lightroom to be used by the other tools and still want to be able to synchronise the two most important values between these tools and Lightroom: orientation and rating.
    is there any way to store orientation and rating from lightroom in the original photo's exif data? vice versa is there a way to synchronise these values back from the exif metadata to Lightroom? Especially orientation is an issue, because I have older cameras that do not set the orientation tag and I have to orient them in Lightroom.
    rationale: I'd like to use web or mobile devices to rate pictures with my friends and family and do not to have everybody gather around my Lightroom PC.
    I don't want to be trapped in the adobe product family. Buying Lightroom-mobile is not an option as I don't accept public clouds and the pricing of it.
    Any hints?
    cheers,
    Meike

    Use the Metadata > Save Metadata To File command to write orientation and rating from the LR catalog back to the photo's metadata.  Or set the option Catalog Settings > Metadata > Automatically Write Changes Into XMP.
    If an external tool changes a photo's metadata, LR will display an indicator in the upper-right corner of its thumbnail in Library grid mode:
    You can tell LR to reread all the metadata from the file by doing Metadata > Read Metadata From File (this will replace all the metadata in the LR catalog, so beware).
    You can find all photos that have changed metadata in the file by using the Metadata Status column in Metadata browser of the Library Filter bar.

  • CF Installations :Key differnces between Multiserver configuration and J2EE Configuration

    Hi,

    Hello Dalibor,
    While the service account user object has Use DES selected it would appear your user session is still sending the AS Java an RC4 service ticket.  This might occur if your user had requested a service ticket before Use DES was selected, or before that setting had replicated to the appropriate domain controller.  The fix might be as simple and logging out and logging back in now that some time has passed.
    You could also download the Microsoft kerbtray utility and inspect the service ticket enc type to validate this.  kerbtray can also be used to clear old tickets and is generally useful for troubleshooting this kind of thing.
