Integrate robohelp with adobe connect and captivate
RH8 HTML.
Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has done this, or if it can be done at all.
I've produced a load of documentation for our web application, now we are beiong tasked with going down the elearning route with online courses etc.
I just want to know if there is any useful integration between robohelp, adobe connect, and/or captivate in terms of sharing content etc.
Even linking within RH to start a connect session or something similar.
Thanks.
I haven't used Connect Pro but my understanding is that it is just a kind of portal into which you can placecontent that can be viewed over the web between disparate groups. Adding content to Connect Pro (e.g. a Captivate movie) should be easy to do. Once there, you'd just link to the URL from your RoboHelp project. You'd need to enter user logon details no doubt which makes me wonder whether this is the way forward for you. I'd have thought you could integrate your Captivate movies INSIDE your RoboHelp project and publish this to the web. That way you wouldn't need Connect Pro.
If it's of help we do just this, although in our case the movies are stored on our own internal server. We just link to them from the help so they open in a separate window.

Playbar with Adobe Connect and Presenter
Hello, i am a new user of Captivate and Connect Pro solution.
I would like to know if it's possible to keep the playbar control
after publishing the Captivate project and importing it into Adobe
Presenter as a flash animation ?
My problem is that i am not able to control my FLV animation
through the Presenter publication... i know that the playbar is in
the "_skin.flv" file published by Captivate but even if can see the
playbar in Presenter, it's like it is not "linked" to the main FLV
animation (i mean that playbar buttons have no effect on the
animation...).
Thanks a lot for your appreciate help.I just find the solution on the forum, just have to
deactivate "border" on my project... just perfect. -
How do I export a Keynote 09 presentation to work with Adobe Connect??
Hi - I have imported the .MOV file from keynote into Flash and then exported it as a .FLV file but the problem is that all of my 'on click' build requests have disappeared so it just plays as one continuous movie. Can anyone help me please? It seems that a .MOV file (which works perfectly with the 'on click' features) cannot be played with Adobe Connect. I really need the presentation to play with all of the 'on click' settings in place. PLEASE HELP!!! :o)
Adobe Connect does not support Apple Keynote as a file format. Adobe Connect supports Microsoft Powerpoint format. When you use the Share Document Pod and upload a Powerpoint presentation that file gets converted on the fly to Adobe Flash format and then is streamed to attendees in the room. If you want to use Apple Keynote with Adobe Connect then you should use Share My Screen and use screen sharing to share exactly what you want without converting it into Flash. Adobe Connect does not support .MOV or Apple Quicktime formatted files today (release 8 and previous versions).

Problem with Adobe Pro and Reader on terminal server
Hi,
We have have a Terminal Server environment with Adobe Pro and Reader. We have security for Adobe Pro, so only certain user has access to Adobe Pro and all users has access to Adobe Reader.
Some users receive many email with pdf's attachments in Outlook and need to print these attachments. They use the Outlook function to print email and attachment automatically. The users who has access to Adobe Pro can print attachment automatically with no problem.
The problem is user who only have access to Adobe Reader. The user can't print attachment automatically with the email, only the email is printed. But, they can open attachment and print with Adobe Reader. But, it's impossible to open each attachment because there are so many.
Thanks for your help.
JonathanHi,
So if I understand correctly,
1. You have installed Acrobat Pro & Reader on a Terminal server.
2. You have created a security group in your Active Directory Users & Computers for users having access to Acrobat
3. You have set permissions on C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe and C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\Acrotray.exe on the terminal server and provided access only to the security group created above.
4. Users are accessing the Terminal server through RDWeb or connecting remotely through MSTSC (RDP) or using a .RDP file
5. Users get emails with PDF attachments and print the mail directly without opening the PDF in Reader.
Users check the box to print the attachments with the mail (see snapshot below):
Some questions:
1. What is the OS and platform (x86 or x64) of the terminal server?
2. What are the versions of Acrobat & Reader on the terminal server?
Thanks,

I installed ADE and when I try to download ebook it tries to open with Adobe reader and does not give option to open with ADE
It sounds as if you downloaded Adobe Acrobat Pro. If you did, uninstall it. Then repair Adobe Reader.
The free Acrobat account has no connection to any of this. -
Which Premier Global (Premier NA) Audio product works with Adobe Connect Pro 7.5
I am trying to set up audio conferencing on my Adobe Connect Pro 7.5 so I am able to record a discussion online. So both myself and the participants on the call would be recorded. For my audio profiles, Premier Global (Premier NA) is set up as the participating provider. Which Premier Global audio account is used with Adobe Connect Pro 7.5 so an Adobe Connect session using teleconferencing can be recorded?
Any PGi phone bridge should work. Just be sure you start the audio conference in the meeting, or Connect will have no knowledge of the call.

Has anybody integrated Shoretel conferencing with Adobe Connect?
Has anyone integrated ShoreTel audio conferencing with Adobe Connect? If so, I would love some tips on how to do it.
James, I'm interested in this topic as well! I am not an IT person, just a user. I have Tech Support who are dealing with this. We have integrated our Shortel system 99.9% with Connect, but for some reason we can't get the DTMF to send properly. Very frustrating! Adobe has provided some assistance. Adobe wanted the SIP information (SIP IP adddress, username and password) which we set up; but my IT folks needed the correct ports that Connect wanted. This is what they sent me:
Below are the ports you
need to open to make FMG talk to your SIP server:
2222 - HTTP
8506 - RTMP
Flash Media Gateway to Internet SRC-IP=<Server-IP>,
SRC-PORT=5060, DST-IP=ANY, DST-PORT=5060
Internet to Flash Media Gateway SRC-IP=ANY, SRC-PORT=5060, DST-IP=<(>
<<)>Server-IP>, DST-PORT=5060
Flash Media Gateway to Internet SRC-IP=<Server-IP>,
SRC-PORT=5000_TO_6000, DST-IP=ANY, DST-PORT=ANY_HIGH_END
Internet to Flash Media Gateway SRC-IP=ANY, SRC-PORT=ANY_HIGH_END,
DST-IP=<Server-IP>, DST-PORT=5000_TO_6000
Maybe this will help?

Wich videocamera works best with Adobe Connect Pro?
I want to buy a videcamera to import live video in my ACP sessions. Wich videocamera works great or best?
Any camera that works with Adobe Flash Player should work well with Adobe Connect. Given the number of existing products in the market, we cannot possibly test with all specific brands and models.
Some folks in the team give some guidance around this topic in a blog post at Adobe Connect supported cameras and mic. See of this helps. Do let us know what works or does not work for you, so that the community benefits from your findings.

High quality mic on external usb-soundcard dosen't work with Adobe Connect. Why?
Hello
A friend of mine bought a quite good microphone and a good extrernal soundcard for recording podcasts. Everything works fine. But know she wants to use the microphone for Adobe Connect, because of the very good sound quality. Adobe Connect finds it an you can select it, but now singal comes into Adobe Connect. But it works with every other Adobe application. So why doesn't it work with Adobe Connect?
The soundcard is the Tascam US-122 Mk2. Normaly very uncomplicated ..
Thanks for any advice!
AlinjaI connect my bus-powered HDs (more than one) to the iMac all the time without any problems. I have found, though, that for me the FireWire enclosures work much better (faster and more stable) than the USB2 ones. I have had the USB2 drives freeze my computer once or twice when I connected the HD, but nothing like that has ever happened with the FireWire connections. (I switched the same disk from USB to a FireWire enclosure, so all other elements were kept constant in my experiments.)
One of my HD is in a MacAlly 2.5" enclosure that offers both FireWire and USB2. The other one is in some generic enclosure with only USB2. Both are bus-powered and both work fine. -
I had a recent not so great experience with Adobe Connect
I had a recent not so great experience with Adobe Connect that I need you help on. Keep in mind that I tested the Connect session with the presenter the day before and Connect worked very well. On the day of the event I opened the room to get the speaker logged in as a “Presenter”. No problems with that however I noticed that there was no “Share My Screen” button to be found anywhere. In essence I could not get him connected.
To resolve this I was forced to close out the old session and start a fresh one where I could share the presenter’s screen. Once we were going a few of the participants mentioned that they were having problems getting audio. Most online said they were fine but a few mentioned that we not getting the audio fluidly. I explained that it may be due to their bandwidth and to be patient that it would cache. Then I notice that same issue that I had talked about with a Connect technician before where all audio stops working after about 1hour into the presentation. They way I have resolved this was to log the presenter out and log him back in.
Keep in mind that I am online with 3 other computers via WiFi monitoring and seeing the presentation as the online viewers are seeing it and I can see it coming through flawlessly. So, for the few who had problems I attributed it to the lack of bandwidth in their area. However, at 1 hour into the presentation the audio dropped out completely while the video was fine and this reflected on my machines as well. This is the continuing experience that I keep having with Connect. The total amount of people online was 9.
Now, I have a Photoshop user group meeting that will take place online this Thursday June 17th from 5 – 7pm featuring Dave Cross and we have about 200 people registered for that. It would be great if we could have one of the engineers attend that session.

Adobe Connect and an online teacher
I am a teacher who has a lot of online students. I have recently started using Adobe Connect and everything is perfect except the fact that I can’t play any videos or music there. I’d really appreciate it if you could help me with that. Thank you in advance.
This should work, so long as you aren't trying to share music or video through screen sharing. You should be able to upload MP3 for the audio, and I would use FLV for the video. These files can be uploaded directly to the Share pod, and you will control the playback for everyone in the room.

Hello!
I have a problem with integration of Adobe Connect and Efront learning managment system. I read that it is possible somehow despite the fact that there are no special module in Efront for Adobe Connect, but that's what the Efront support said:
"Connecting eFront with Adobe Connect Pro was in our Roadmap on the past.
It was never materialized due to resource restrictions. However, it was feasible using efront api and the interconnection offered from Adobe Connect Pro (if that helps)."
So, does anybody know how it is possible to do? Because I don't have programming skills. Thank you very much.It would be through the Connect APIs and eFront's APIs. This would likely take some programming skill, as there is no 'plug-and-play' option. I don't know of anyone who has built out this integration, but, maybe someone will chime in here.
You might try reaching out to a group that is comfortable building out this functionality and seeing if it can be done within your budget. Maybe start with ActiveC and see if they can help, or if they know someone who can. http://www.activec.biz/software/bespoke -
Which product is better among Adobe connect and LiveCycle Collaboration service.
Hello,
I am developing real time application within it chatting, video conferncing, audio conferencing, white board application doing with more than 5000 employee.So please tell me which product is better among Adobe Connect and Live Cycle Collaboration services.
If there is another option other than these both product then also please tell me.
I want same application just like http://puremvc.org/content/blogsection/9/176/ this URL.Within this URL please create different account and see how this system works and reply me.
Thnaks.Hi There,
If you're developing an application, you likely want to use LCCS rather
than connect. Connect is a pre-built app, whereas LCCS is a framework and
service for building apps.
We're not really here to do your research work for you however, so please
limit your questions to LCCS.
hope that helps,

when Update to 10.7.2 ,I cannot access to any site with ssl connection and fail to open safari and keychain, unless restart computer and login in with Guest account.
OS:10.7.2
Macbook Pro 2010-mid 13inchI also have the same problem, however if I use Firefox or Opera sites with ssl connection work fine. Still, I can't use Google Chrome (ssl), Safari (ssl), the Mac app store (generally), or the iTunes store (generally). Both the iTunes store, Safari and the app store won't respond, and Chrome displays this error: (net::ERR_TIMED_OUT). The problem persists regardless of what network I'm using. Also, when trying to access the keychain or iCloud, the process will not start (will hang). I didn't have these problems at all before updating to 10.7.2.
Sometimes rebooting helps, and sometimes not. If the problem disappears by rebooting, then it only lasts a few minutes before it reappears. It is very frustrating, especially since there doesn't seem to be any obvious or consistent way of which to fix it.
I'm also using a Macbook Pro 13-inch mid 2010.
