Is it possible to use Adobe Connect as your LMS?

My understanding is that it integrates into your current LMS...but the functionality it seems to accomplish what I need: eLearning course hosting for my external customers, grading, certificates. Any thoughts?

The real questions is: Can I get rid of my LMS and upload all my eLearning modules to Adobe Connect? Can they be accessed on customer demand like a true LMS? or is Adobe Connect dependent on "starting" the Connect interface as an instructor and inviting participants in a virtual classroom.
If I could use Adobe Connect for both my LMS and my Virtual Classroom, it would save thousands of dollars.
By the way, trying to get an answer to this question from Adobe is like pulling teeth. They are not in the LMS business and don't want to be. Just because they have an LMS, doesn't mean they want to sell it, maintain it, and deal with all of the customer support a regular LMS needs to.

Nick,
You may be right that I missed the mark on answer the question asked... guess I read a bit of what I thought the question should be, not what it was. Thanks for calling my attention to that.
Can Connect be used as your LMS? Yes. There is the learning module which allows for delivery of on-demand training (Concurrent Learner licenses) and live training and tracking (Named Virtual Classroom Manager licenses). While Connect is more of a light weight LMS, it does fit most organiztions needs for user training delivery and tracking.
For on-demand content there is no need to start the Connect interface (a meeting room is what I assume you are referring to), as the training Course (single object) or Curriculum (collection of learning objects) will have a single URL for access. If using a Virtual Classroom then the ondemand courses can be launched in the synchronus session and all attendees interactions will be tracked.
If it helps, we have a description of the licensing for Adobe Connect here, Setting the Record Straight on Adobe Connect Licensing Again | RealEyes Media, in an attempt to help clarify what Connect can do. Let me know if I can answer any other questions.

Adobe Connect as an LMS and Adobe Captivate html 5

We are using Adobe Connect as an LMS.
We can create and publish Adobe Captivate modules as html 5,
Our problem is iOS devices (iPhone and iPad) can't access the courses through adobe Connect's courses and content because it is flash based and not supported by iOS.
The result is we have html 5, we can publish it to Adobe Connect, iOS devices can use the link to run the course, but we can't use it with the Adobe Connect Course displays.
Has any found a way to do that?
Thank you.

Ashwani,
Thank you for your request. I asked my developer for moire information - here are his clarifications for my question:
================================================================================
Technically it's Adobe Connect itself and a curriculum on Adobe Connect that are giving us the problem. I just borrowed an iPad and tried to login to Adobe Connect. I can't even login - it tells me I need to download Flash.
So the issue doesn't have anything to do with Captivate, it's Adobe Connect. We don't need to share any content - just try to login to Adobe Connect and you get stopped right there.
The real issue is
iOS users can't access HTML5 content on Adobe Connect because they can't login to Adobe Connect - that requires Flash. That means Adobe Connect isn't acting as an LMS, it's just a web server holding two kinds of content that you can link to. How can we login to Adobe Connect from an iOS device to see the list of curricula and access the courses they contain as an LMS with reporting, etc.?
=====================================================================
Would you still need to see the content?
Thank you,
Bill

How, using Adobe Connect can increase the number of participants in the meeting? I need more than 25 people.

Hi, I use licensed Adobe Connect. Earlier in the meeting could involve up to 100 people. Now only 25. How, using Adobe Connect can increase the number of participants in the meeting? I need more than 25 people.
Thanks for your help.

The purchasing option through adobe.com only allows up to 25 attendees. If you need more than that, you will need to purchase through a reseller. You can find one that is able to sell in your part of the world, here: Adobe Connect Partners. Just reach out to one of the Global Partners.

Experiencing very small text using adobe connect on my new Microsoft Surface 3. Any solutions?

Experiencing very small text using adobe connect on my new Microsoft Surface 3. Any solutions?

I've heard of this happening before, "it seems that you may be having problems with display scaling of Microsoft Surface. Display scaling effects the way content and controls appear on the screen.
Have you tried messing with scaling at all?
You can try this options: Upgrade Surface Pro from Windows 8 to Windos 8.1, disable display scalling, or reduce display scaling for windows.
Here is some info I found: http://www.microsoft.com/surface/en-us/support/apps-and-windows-store/app-display-issues

Can Adobe Flash be an alternate soft for Adobe Photoshop (for PRINT)? Is it possible to use Adobe Fl

Is it possible to use Adobe Flash instead of adobe photoshop for generating images for PRINT???
how about the CMYK settings? Will i have an issue with that? Please I need an expert at this too.

No. Flash would be one of the worst applications to substitute for Photoshop for creating art for print output. If you must use something other than Photoshop, you could use Illustrator, it is specifically designed to create artwork for print.
Flash has no direct method for outputting CMYK.

I am trying to use Adobe connect on a mac. It just keeps saying loading adobe connect but nothing is happening

Any tips on using Adobe Connect on a mac

Hanging on the loading screen is commonly a sign of port 1935 being blocked. I would recommend that you use the test page to see if there is an easily idenitifiable problem.
Are you accessing an account hosted by Adobe? Should have a url that is something like company.adobeconnect.com.

Using Adobe Connect for Tutoring Business

Hello,
I am starting an online tutoring business, and i would like to use Adobe Connect as the platform for tutoring service. I would like what are the difference between using Adobe Connect (Enterprise) or Adobe Connect (Individual). I would like to input my company's logo in the Adobe Connect, but all i really need for my business is the webcam and whiteboard interface.
In addition,will there be legal problmes if i use Adobe Connect Individual for my business?
Your comments will be much appreciated!
Thank you so much!

I'm not sure about the legal concerns around this (I would contact Adobe Enterprise Sales for this), but the major differences are that the individual site has are no customizations and you of course have smaller license limits (one meeting host).

Using Adobe Connect to Live Stream an Event

Hi everyone,
I was hoping to get some suggestions about how we could best use Adobe Connect to live stream an upcoming event. Every year we host an event with both a live and an online audience. Traditionally we've asked our presenters to speak into a microphone that is connected to a PA system in the room and then a separate microphone connected to a laptop pics up the audio coming out of the PA system and transmits it through Connect. I suspect that there must be a better way to do this (perhaps using a mixing board?), but I'm not sure how that would work. Does anyone have any ideas/suggestions?
Similarly, does anyone have any thoughts on adding a live video feed? Ideally I'd like to broadcast a video feed at a resolution around 480, but I'm not sure if that's realistic. Any insights people may have would be greatly appreciated.

When doing mixed events (live and online) with Connect, I've used an audio out from a mixing board, or if you can off the PA system. This ensures a direct like from the mic being used and eliminates the chance for the PA's audio to be picked up by the mic and creating an echo or disruptive background noise.
As to the live video feed, that should be easy enough. So long as you can connect your camera (webcam or otherwise) to the computer, there should be a method to get the live stream in Connect. The feed needs to be seen as a webcam by your computer's OS, but this can be worked around with an application called DVdriver ($20), if needed. It is also free to try, so you can test at no additional cost. Connect supports up to 480P.

System crash at one end, extremely slow on the other: Using Adobe Connect.

The instructor side is a mac. I can get more info on that later. My system is a windows 7 based unit using Firefox 5.0. I will fill that in later but suffice it to say that all software is up to latest versions on both sides.
Using Adobe Connect for an online class, the instructor's Mac computer kept crashing. He could conduct the class for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, I saw that when he was connected, my system would slow down to slower than a crawl. If I were to type in these three lines, it would take 3 - 4 minutes just to show up on the screen. When his system crashed, my system would run fine and, as I was still linked to Connect I could talk and chat with the other students. I have the windows tachometer on the screen and it is pinned while he was on line and scarcely above 10 when he was not.
Does this make any sense?
When I check the task manager, it showed that Plugins_container.exe was taking up the CPU time. I looked into defeating the Plugin-Container but that didn't help. I changed over to Internet Explorer but that didn't help. I used a newly set up laptop and IE but that didn't help. It could be my fire wall but it only happend when his system is connected.
If anyone has amy insights on any of all this I would sincerely appreciate hearing about it.

None of that is normal behaviour of Connect.
I suspect perhaps a network firewall or maybe anti-virus scanning.
I suggest that you install the latest Adobe Connect Add-In for the Host or anyone using VOIP audio. The new add-ins are posted to www.connectusers.com under downloads. A new one for each OS was posted a few weeks ago to go with Adobe Connect 8.1.1 and previous versions.

How do you open a PDF using Adobe Reader on your IPad in IBook?

How do you open a PDF File using Adobe Reader on your IPad When in IBook?

You can't. When you're in most of the PDF readers, the Share button gives you the option of Open In another app. But iBooks does not.
You need to add your PDFs through the iTunes method which Alec wrote about here:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1040579?tstart=0
Or you can use another way of transferring your PDF to the iPad, like Dropbox. You install the Dropbox app on your iPad and copy your PDF from Dropbox (cloud application). It opens in Dropbox app and you use the Share icon to move it into Reader.

Is it possible to use adobe formsCentral in a offline mode?

the case is as following:
during an expositon we want to use adobe forms central. the problem is that sometimes we will loose our internet connection.
Question:
a) Can we use the forms in an offline mode?
b) Is there any possiblity to store a filled out form and send all the filled out forms altogether in a later phase?
thanks for some useful ideas
best regards
offline

Hi,
If you are using FormsCentral Web form then, no. You could use a FormsCentral PDF form; however, you will have to save each PDF form that people fill out locally (with a different filename) and then when you are online open each form and submit the responses.
How to create and distribute a FormsCentral PDFform: http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-2655
Please try out the Formscentral PDF Form and see if it works for you.

Is it possible to use Adobe Illustrator in multiple computers with the same account?

Hi guys,
So our company is a small designing tile company,
we wanted to purchase the Adobe Illustrator and was wondering if it was possible to use it in multiple computers with one account, as we have two computers that are frequently use for designing, or do we have to buy two separated Adobes Illustrators for each computer?
Thanks

Audio issues while using Adobe connect

I am unable get audio when attending Live Webinars thru adobe connect on my iPad 2 WiFi+3G. For recorded webinars there is no issue. I use Puffin browser in order to play the flash player. Is there a solution?

Hi gailperdue-
This sounds like an issue with the website gavirtualschool.org. Does this problem happen when you open the website with other browsers like Safari or Chrome? If so, then you know for sure the problem lies with either Adobe Connect or the website. If that is the case I would recommend you contact the website support or Adobe for assistance.
