Imported slides from PowerPoint

Does anyone knows if all the transitions and effects I can
apply into a Powerpoint presentation will remain the same after I
import the whole presentation to Captivate?
I tried, but seems it won't work.... any ideas?

Hi avguier and welcome to our community
Unfortunately any effects are not maintained. What you will
end up with are static screen shots of the PowerPoint slides.
Cheers... Rick

  • I want to edit the text within Captivate after importing slides from PowerPoint

    Hi,
    Background: I import slides from a .pptx file. Once the slides are created inside of Captivate, I want to edit the text on the slide, but I can't; it's all become part of the background. So, I am left with two options: 1) open the .pptx file, edit the text, and then re-import the slide 2) Manually create everything on the slide inside of Captivate. This is so labor-intensive. I was hoping Captivate 7 would address this, but what seemed could possible address it - High Fidelity - isn't available for mac. I'm sure others have this problem too.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Maybe you'd better look at Adobe Presenter if you need only to convert a PPT to an eLearning course?
    Captivate is much more powerful, but its principal goal is not to convert PPT's. Each PPT-slide is converted into a movie slide so that all animations will be transferred properly. Personally I never create presentations in PPT but always directly in CP. You could import only the backgrounds, and create the other objects in CP. Images can be imported into the library, audio as well.

    Polachan, just open the Power Point presentation in your copy
    of "MS Powerpoint 2007" and use the "Save As" function to save a
    copy in "Powerpoint 1997-2003" format.
    Then, bring
    that copy into Captivate 3, and you should be okay. Okay?

  • Adobe Presenter 9 and PowerPoint 2013 - Missing Import Audio from PowerPoint button

    I am only able to intermitantly use the Import button in Adobe Presenter 9 to Import Audio from PowerPoint. Why would I be able to do it on some presentations but not all? I thought it was an audio conversion issue but even when I convert the audio (when prompted by PowerPoint) it doesn't always allow me to import it.

    I have found a solution if the original PowerPoint was a ppt file, follow these steps:
    File > Save As a pptx file
    Close PowerPoint (this helps with not corrupting the file)
    Re-open the pptx file
    File > Convert
    Save with a new file name (this helps with not corrupting the file)
    You should now have the Import from Presentation button if you go to the Presenter tab and click the Import button
    I have not found a solution for pptx files yet.

  • Import slides from scanner for Photoshop Elements 13

    How do I import slides from my Epson scanner. I don't get the option of what type, photo, negative or slide to import like I did on a previous Photoshop Elements. I am using Elements 13 now. I would appreciate the help.
    Thanks, Pat

    And to be clear, you have to click where it says Chat on the screenshot I posted, above, then it should bring up a page that has an area that looks like what is below, where you click and type into the red box.
    If, after clicking on the Chat area, your browser isn't showing you a webpage with a red box where you can type up to 500 characters, then try a different browser, and/or temporarily disable any internet-security software you have in case it is blocking the communications. Chat does work but it does take a while for someone to respond, usually.

  • Is it possible to import slides from one Keynote presentation into another. If so how do I do it on iPad 2?

    Is it possible to import slides from one Keynote presentation into another. If so how do I do it on iPad 2?

    You do it sort of like the way you arrange your apps on the iPad and how you drag apps into groups. You do the same technic with your Keynote slides.

  • Cannot Publish Slides from PowerPoint 2013 to SharePoint 2010 Slide Library

    I have the 64-bit version of Windows 8 Release v1.0, Internet Explorer version 10 (10.0.9200.17183), Office 2013 Professional 32-bit, and a SharePoint 2010 environment.  I cannot publish slides to the SharePoint environment at all.  When
    I attempt to do so from PowerPoint 2013, I receive an error indicating all slides (X of X) failed to upload.  When I attempt to use the option in the SharePoint 2010 Slide Library (Upload > Publish Slides) I receive the error of "This feature
    requires Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007.  Either the application is not installed, or your browser is not configured to support ActiveX controls."
    I have added the URL for the site in question to my "Trusted Sites" in Internet Explorer 10.  I read through the KB 2716529.  There is no TabProcGrowth registry entry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER, but there is one under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    and the value is set to "Medium" which appears to be accurate.  I tried running the "Fix it For Me" option offered with that KB, and the wizard indicated the problem could not be found on my computer.
    How can I resolve this issue?  Utilizing slide libraries is a very important feature of SharePoint for my organization, and going back to Office 2010 is simply not an option. 

    Hi Jen_O,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you were unable to publish Slides into SharePoint 2010 with Office 2013.
    For narrowing this issue, let's verify the followings:
    Please test on other machines with the same system configuration, compare the result.
    Please test on other machines with 32-bit system and IE 10, compare the result.
    Whether you are able to publish Slides from Windows 7 and Office 2013 32-bit.
    Whether this issue occurres for all slide files with Office 2013.
    Please create a new slide in PowerPoint 2013, and check if it could be uploaded into a new Slide library.
    In addition,  Office Web Apps (as part of SharePoint 2010) allow SharePoint users to view and edit Office documents (Word, PowerPoint, Excel etc.) from within the browser. Typically we can click on a link to a PowerPoint, for example in a document library,
    and be taken to a new page to present PowerPoint.

  • Importing Slides from other Project

    Hi,
    I am trying to import a few slides from an existing project
    and the application stalls on me. (not responding) I tried it

    Hi folks and welcome to our community
    Instead of Importing, have you tried opening a second
    instance of Captivate that has the project you want the slides from
    and copying the slides to the Windows Clipboard? You then paste
    into the destination project.
    Give that a go and see if it works somewhat better.

  • Can't publlish slides from Powerpoint 2013 to sharepoint slide gallery

    Just upgraded to office 2013 - previously had 2007.  I had no problems in the past publishing slides to my slide gallery in Sharepoint, or copying slides from the gallery to Powerpoint.  Now I can't publish and I can't copy to Powerpoint from sharepoint.
    I have a couple slide libraries in my sharepoint... so when I go to publish from PowerPoint 2013 I browse and choose the right one
    https://[our server]/sales/2012%20Sales%20Slides/
    Then hit publish... I'm trying this for a single slide only. When I do so I get the error:
    1 of 1 slides that were being published to https://[our server]/sales/2012 Sales Slides/ filed.  Try publishing again.
    When I try selecting slides from my gallery and hit the "Copy to Slide Presentation" button I get the error:
    This feature requires Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.5 or later.
    I'm using IE9.  SharePoint 2007
    Please help.

    I am having this same issue.. I have about 8 users that can't publish from PowerPoint 2013 to SharePoint 2010 but I also have a few that can. The interesting part is the ones that can publish were all upgrades rather than fresh installs. I created a fresh
    VM of Windows 8 and Office 2013 and was unable to publish. However, when I uninstalled 2013 and installed 2010 on the same VM I was able to publish. I then upgraded to 2013 and was able to publish UNTIL I rebooted at which point I was unable to publish. The
    frustrating part is there are no errors anywhere: event viewer, SP logs, Office UI, nothing.
    Does anyone have any ideas? I am pretty much out.

  • 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

  • When I import slides from iPhoto to iDVD, they lose color.

    I want to burn an iDVD from photos/movies that are on iPhoto.  Although they look fine in the work space, when I run the iDVD movie, about 75% of the slides lose all color or show only deep blues and purple.  I have already verified the color in settings, tried eliminating the movie clips.  What is happening?

    Sounds like an iDVD problem.  I'l ask that this topic be moved to the iDVD forum.

  • Can't Publish Slides from PowerPoint 2013 to SharePoint 2010 Slide Library

    Hello all,
    When I attempt to publish PowerPoint 2013 slides to a SharePoint 2010 Slide Library it informs me that it failed. I am able to publish PowerPoint 2010 slides without issue. All of my permissions are correct. Is it possible to publish PowerPoint 2013 slides
    to SharePoint 2010?
    The weird thing is that while I can't publish, I can compile a new slide deck in PowerPoint 2013 using the "Copy slide to presentation" button in the slide library of my SharePoint 2010 site.
    Thanks!

    When I get this error it is because SharePoint is not passing the credentials to the network share where the slide library is located. So when PowerPoint
    tries to upload slides to SharePoint it is giving an error of unauthorized (because your credentials are not being passed correctly). Every part of SharePoint is essentially a network shared drive just like you have an internal network to share files between
    employees. Assuming you are having the same problem for the same reason, here's the work around: 
    Set up a mapped network drive that goes to where the slide library is located. It should be something like this: \\sp.sharepoint.com@SSL\site\Sales\Slide Library
    When you connect to this drive it will prompt you for a log in (just like SharePoint would)
    Once you log in your credentials will be cached (until you reboot your system or it times out)
    You can then publish to your PowerPoint slides to the library either directly through PowerPoint or by going to the upload slides option on SharePoint
    The problem is it only last until you reboot. When you reboot it clears out your credentials then you have to log in again. I’m hoping someone can figure out why SharePoint is
    not passing the credentials properly so we can have true fix to this issue. Until then, this will get you by. 

  • Best format for importing slides from InDesign

    I have a slideshow presentation that I created with InDesign CS. I am now creating a project in iMovie using video taped footage of this presentation. At certain points, I would like to cut away to the slide which is being discussed. What is the best format/method to do this?
    I tried exporting the slides as pdfs, but in addition to the slides being blurry (both on screen and after I burnt the presentation to DVD), I could not control how long the slide remained on screen, nor adjust its dimensions.
    I also tried to convert the slides to jpg and tif and gif (even png) files and, no matter what the quality, they were also blurry.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hi marmino:
    Welcome to discussions!
    You could try saving the slides as 640X480 and then as a .pict file.

  • Importing JPEG files from powerpoint - Please help I'm on a deadline!

    I've been importing slides from powerpoint (saved as JPEG files) into imovie (there are 7 in all). I've done this without a problem. I decided I wanted to change some of the words so I went into my original powerpoint file, did my changes, and saved the slides as JPEG files as usual. For some reason now when I import each of the slides they're huge so the words are cut off. I've been trying to reduce the font size but now it's getting hard to read! Does anyone have any ideas as to why I'm suddenly having problems and how I can fix this? I need to ship this out today by 5pm EST.
    Thanks!

    Thank you for your help!
    Would you know why it's now importing these files in such a way that I"m not able to change the length of the slide? (it's importing it for 2 seconds almost as if it's a movie file - it has a little play button on the top which looks different from my other files)
