Issues with a PowerPoint 2007 presentation in a Share POD

Hello everybody.
Today I held a CP8 presentation hosted at the following URL:
https://connectpro825084440.preview.adobeconnect.com/robertozini
While I was arranging things some days before the meeting, I noticed that a PPT 2007 presentation I "preloaded" into CP8 (in my CONTENT space) sometime got stuck when depicted on the share pod; all I had (both in meeting host/presenter/ pod) was the revolving "Adobe Presenter" logo but nothing was depicted on the pod.
Please notice that, in the past few days, I made several changes in the PPT 2007 file; each time I wanted to test the file in a meeting session, I switched to the WEB admin console, selected Content -> User Content -> <my_name> -> <my_folder> -> <my_presentation> and clicked over the "Upload Content" as to "refresh" the content itself.
During my tests, once in the meeting room , I selected a share pod -> Share Document -> My Content -> <my_folder> -> <my_presentation> ; when the issue was noticed (again, that did not always happen) I had the revolving "Adobe Presenter" logo but nothing was depicted.
Once this happened during my tests, I did exit and re-enter the meeting and shared the presentation again and this fixed this issue; today, during a presentation I gave to some customers. when I switched from a layout to the one which had the Share pod with my PPT file, one customer completely lost my presentation (grey screen) whereas the other one was able to see it fine.
I had a WinXP+SP3 box here I use as a test box and, on this box, I was unable to see my PPT (again, the Adobe Presenter revolving logo). I tried by [Stop Sharing] the presentation and by reloading from content but unsuvvessfully (as a Host, I also had the revolving logo depicted).
I was lucky since I was at the very end of the presentation but this behaviour was rather weird and embarassing...
Please let me know if you want to access my PPT file (no presenter stuff inserted) as to reproduce the behaviour.
Thanks,
Roberto

Hello!
Can you enable the meeting add-in logs on your computer, and try the upload again? Once you have the add-in logs please attach them here.

Issue with Date Format for Presentation Variables

Hi,
I am using dashboard prompts to capture begin date and end date in presentation variables. The dates selected from calendar are in the format mm/dd/yyyy.
In Asnwers I need to get a count of days between begin and end dates. I am using the column formula as shown:
TIMESTAMPDIFF(SQL_TSI_DAY, DATE '@{pBeginDate}', DATE '@{pEndDate}')
When ever I run the report from dashboard I get the following error:
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 46046] Datetime value 1/1/2005 does not match the specified format. (HY000)
SQL Issued: {call NQSGetQueryColumnInfo('SELECT "Transaction Dates"."Transaction Date", TIMESTAMPDIFF(SQL_TSI_DAY, DATE ''1/1/2005'', DATE ''1/2/2006'' FROM "Dates"')}
SQL Issued: SELECT "Transaction Dates"."Transaction Date", TIMESTAMPDIFF(SQL_TSI_DAY, DATE '1/1/2005', DATE '1/2/2006') FROM "Dates"
Can anyone help me to reolve this date format issue?

Multiple issues with iCloud & Outlook 2007

Hi all,
I have a Windows 7 laptop with Outlook 2007 connected to Exchange. I've used the iCloud configuration panel (version 2.1.1) to set up synchronization of mail, contacts, calendars and tasks with Outlook. I can see the content of each iCloud component in Outlook, however:
Outlook freezes completely when switching to the calendars. I have two personal calendars in iCloud and one shared calendar, and when I switch to the calendar view in Outlook it takes an average of 9 minutes and 45 seconds before Outlook is responsive again. And it's not just the first time after I've set up the sync. It's also not just every time Outlook is started. It's E-VE-RY time I switch to the calendar view! This behavior only occurs for the calendar, not for mail, contacts and tasks.
I can add items such as contacts or appointments in the appropriate iCloud section in Outlook, but then it just sits there. It's not uploaded to iCloud. Not even when you press Refresh iCloud.
Does anyone know how to solve this? I could live with the second issue, but the first issue is infuriatingly unacceptable...
Kind regards,
Maurits

By anychance did you or your wife use any forwarding options under mobile me.

Issue with G4 connecting to a Windows File Share

We have a single MAC G4 that our marketing department uses for graphic development. when we first setup the PC we were able to connect to our Windows shares on the network. For better than a year now we have had intermittent problems with connecting to our Windows file share. It would drop the TCP connection to the file share, you would need to go back a re-authenicate to the share. Two weeks ago the problem worsened, we can't connect the to Windows files share at all now. I have tried different users accounts including my own which has domain admin authority. However I have a samba file share and a snap server running on the network and I am able to connect to these machines with no issues. I suspect a configuration problem, but not sure where to look next.
The MAC is running the following OS version and Kernel
OS 10.3.9 (7W98)
Kernel Darwin 7.9.0
Any guidance would be appreciated

I just figured it out myself.

Issue with Windows Explorer search function and network shares.

Hello all,
I hope all is well, I am having a very odd issue.
One user when they access a particular network drive, and try to use the explorer search function it prompts the following error
Runtime error
Program:
This application has requested the runtime to terminate in a unusual way. Please contact application team for support.
I have checked the event viewer on both the user machine and server hosting the share, not events show up regarding the issue.
I have tried with the user machine in safe mode with networking, and the issue still occurs
It of course is not telling which application or program is causing this.
I have confirmed all windows updates are up to date.
I have gone to the windows search in services and swapped the 1 for a 0, that opened up three of the four network drives for search
the last one is still causing this error.
User computer is windows 7 professional 64 bit
server is windows server 2012 64 bit.
I am at a total loss as to why this is happening on two machines out of ten.
any help or suggestions would be most appreciated.
Cheers
Josh

Hi Josh,
What operation did the user act and how to use the explorer search function to cause the issue? Please check if the issue still exists after the user does the same action locally.
You could refer to the thread below to troubleshoot the issue:

Captivate 5 - issue with editing imported PowerPoints that have been resized

I'm having an issue with editing PowerPoint files that have been imported into Captivate 5 when they have been resized within the Captivate project after the initial import.
1. I import a PowerPoint presentation into 800x600 dimension.
2. I resize the project to 900x600 by not locking the aspect ratio and selecting to position to the top right so there is a 100 pixel strip to the left of the slide that we use for navigation buttons and other info.
3. If I need to make a change to a PowerPoint, I select Edit > Edit with Microsoft PowerPoint > Edit Slide (or Edit Presentation).
4. The slide opens in PowerPoint and I make the changes and click Save.
5. When the slide is imported back into Captivate, it is stretched and resized to not fit either 800x600 or 900x600, but something in between. This did not happen in Captivate 4 - the slide would retain the 800x600 dimension slid over to the right with no issues.
Are there any settings that can be done to ensure the edited slides will import back into the project with the correctly sized dimensions for the current project?

Hi there
I agree that it would be nice to see a notification. You know, Captivate offers a special area for notifications that appear when you open it. I'm stymied as to why Adobe doesn't use this area for making such announcements.
Cheers... Rick

Animations doesn't work when publishing from PPTX (Powerpoint 2007)

I have Presenter 7.0.2 (build 7464), running over PowerPoint
2007, and all the animations based on activators are not
controllable after publishded.
What I need is the same behave of published flash contents
as the powerpoint presentation permits:
- For example, one action button, uppon click on it,
activates some animations effects on others object elements.
Does the Adobe support (Platinum plans), or any of you that
hoppefully had already fix an way to avoid this, can help on this ?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Today I have found the 7.0.5 Update, build 7588, for Presenter 7, so I started to think that my long issue concerning the animations problem could be over with this update ... but it did not! :-(
After the update installation, the same presentation gives me the same wrong behavior.
It seams that the animations triggered by activators used on PowerPoint 2007 presentations continue without any support.
Is that right ?

CS6 compatibility with older macs (2007-2008), using Mavericks 10.9

I've heard about compatibility issues with older macs (2007-2008) when trying to run Adobe Creative Suite 6 Master Collection CS6 with Mavericks 10.9. Right now I'm using CS6 on my existing mid-2007, with Mountain Lion, -works great, and I'm worried if I upgrade to Mavericks there may be problems (based on FAQs)
I do lots of video editing/rendering and am looking into getting another back-up computer to speed up editing time. I'm looking at purchasing an older Apple Mac Pro Tower : 2008 : Xeon 8-core 2.8ghz : 16gb ram : 1TB hd. Will this run Adobe Creative Suite 6 Master Collection CS6 if I'm using Mavericks 10.9? If not, why?
Does the issue pertain to Mavericks with older macs, or is it CS6 with Mavericks, or what? Thanks!

Presenter and PowerPoint 2007

My animations pieces do not seem to work unless I ungroup
them with PowerPoint 2007. However if I use the same files and use
create the Presenter file with PowerPoint 2003 the grouped files
work. Does this mean that I must ungroup all my files if I want to
create Presenter files? This is a big bummer since some of my
complex illustrations need to be grouped. Is anyone else having
problems with PowerPoint 2007 and Presenter? Before my whole team
upgrades I would like feedback.

Hi There,
Yes you need to uninstall Adobe Presenter first before upgrading your Office as Presenter is an addin to the PowerPoint. As such there is no issues using Presenter 10 in Office 2010.

Can someone help me with this powerpoint viewer with director issue?

I have 'inherieted' an interactive CD that was built using director mx2004. I get presentations from different people and put them on a CD to hand out at the end of a seminar. For the Power Point presentations I have director use the powerpoint viewer just in case someone does not have PowerPoint on there machine. This works fine, but I have been getting people that are using PowerPoint 2007 which uses a different extension (pptx instead of ppt). I also have word documents, adobe pdf, ect. Here is the code that handles how to open up the files, whether using PPT viewer or the default program. wasn't sure if you needed all of this or not.
--RUNS WHEN MAIN OPEN BUTTON IS PRESSED--
on mouseUp me
--if button 1-5 has been clicked
if(_global.btnNum = 0 or _global.btnNum = 1 or _global.btnNum = 2 or _global.btnNum = 3 or _global.btnNum = 4 ) then
    --assign selected file to a variable
    selectedFile = sprite("listBox").selectedItem.data
    --path of the file that is selected
    filePath = "workshops\days\day" & _global.btnNum & "\" & selectedFile
    --find out the type of file
    fileExt = selectedFile.char[(selectedFile.length-2)..selectedFile.length]
end if
--if file is classified secret and not provided on this disc (must have "*" at data end)
if(selectedFile.char[selectedFile.length] = "*") then
    --set file to placeholder.ppt (since it has an * at data end)
    filePath = "workshops\placeholder.ppt"
    --set file extension to ppt (since it has an * at data end)
    fileExt = "ppt"
end if
if(fileExt = "ppt") then
    --opens file in powerpointviewer
    _player.open(filePath & " /S", "launchers\PPTVIEW.EXE")
    else
    --opens file in the default program on that computer
    _player.open(filePath, "launchers\PLAY.EXE")
end if
end
I have been trying to get the pptx files to also open in the viewer. I have been able to do this, but the problem is it wants to try to open everything in viewer.
Here is what I have tried:
1- This wants to open everything in PPT viewer. Not sure why.
if(fileExt = "ppt" or "pptx") then
     --opens file in powerpointviewer
     _player.open(filePath & " /S", "launchers\PPTVIEW.EXE")
     else
     --opens file in the default program on that computer
     _player.open(filePath, "launchers\PLAY.EXE")
   end if
end
2-This will just open the 'pptx' file in Power Point. I am sure I am using the 2007 version of PPT viewer in director.
if(fileExt = "ppt") then
    --opens file in powerpointviewer
    _player.open(filePath & " /S", "launchers\PPTVIEW.EXE")
else if(fileExt = "pptx") then
    --opens file in powerpointviewer
_player.open(filePath & " /S", "launchers\PPTVIEW.EXE")
else
    --opens file in the default program on that computer
    _player.open(filePath, "launchers\PLAY.EXE")
end if
end
I am not sure where to go from here. Can someone help me? Have not been using director for very long.
Thanks

It's unclear what exactly is the problem: is it managing to distinguish and open PowerPoint 2007 (*.pptx) files, or is it that every file tries to run in PPTView.exe?
Part of your problem might be that .pptx is 4 characters long, while .ppt is only 3, and the code dealing with the file extension:
fileExt = selectedFile.char[(selectedFile.length-2)..selectedFile.length]
will only grab the last 3 characters regardless of where the "." is.
Create a new #movie script member (press Ctrl + Shift + U and then hit the + button - "New Cast Member" - at the top-left of the script window that opens). Set the script syntax to JavaScript by altering the drop-down just below the + button and paste in the following:
function jsGetExtension(fName){
if(typeof(fName)!="string") return "";
return fName.split(".").pop();
Then use the following modification to your original script:
global btnNum
--RUNS WHEN MAIN OPEN BUTTON IS PRESSED--
on mouseUp me
--if button 1-5 has been clicked
case btnNum of
    0, 1, 2, 3, 4:
      --assign selected file to a variable
      selectedFile = sprite("listBox").selectedItem.data
      --path of the file that is selected
      filePath = "workshops\days\day" & btnNum & "\" & selectedFile
      --find out the type of file
      fileExt = jsGetExtension(selectedFile)
end case
--if file is classified secret and not provided on this disc (must have "*" at data end)
if (selectedFile.char[selectedFile.length] = "*") then
    --set file to placeholder.ppt (since it has an * at data end)
    filePath = "workshops\placeholder.ppt"
    --set file extension to ppt (since it has an * at data end)
    fileExt = "ppt"
end if
case fileExt of
    "ppt", "pptx":
      --opens file in powerpointviewer
      _player.open(filePath & " /S", "launchers\PPTVIEW.EXE")
    otherwise:
      --opens file in the default program on that computer
      _player.open(filePath, "launchers\PLAY.EXE")
end case
end
However, I'm nervous that you aren't supplying the full path to files and executables. I don't know where the movie file that contains this code is relative to the folder "launchers\" or "workshops\" put I suggest you prepend the movie's full path (or the application's full path) like so:
global btnNum
--RUNS WHEN MAIN OPEN BUTTON IS PRESSED--
on mouseUp me
mPath = _movie.path -- OR _player.applicationPath
--if button 1-5 has been clicked
case btnNum of
    0, 1, 2, 3, 4:
      --assign selected file to a variable
      selectedFile = sprite("listBox").selectedItem.data
      --path of the file that is selected
      filePath = mPath & "workshops\days\day" & btnNum & "\" & selectedFile
      --find out the type of file
      fileExt = jsGetExtension(selectedFile)
end case
--if file is classified secret and not provided on this disc (must have "*" at data end)
if (selectedFile.char[selectedFile.length] = "*") then
    --set file to placeholder.ppt (since it has an * at data end)
    filePath = mPath & "workshops\placeholder.ppt"
    --set file extension to ppt (since it has an * at data end)
    fileExt = "ppt"
end if
case fileExt of
    "ppt", "pptx":
      --opens file in powerpointviewer
      _player.open(filePath & " /S", mPath & "launchers\PPTVIEW.EXE")
    otherwise:
      --opens file in the default program on that computer
      _player.open(filePath, mPath & "launchers\PLAY.EXE")
end case
end
