Linking Flash and Adobe Captivate

Greetings all;
I have a .swf file generated out of Adobe Captivate showing a
product demonstration. I also have an introduction to said
demonstration created in Flash CS3. What I want to do is link them
so that at the end of the intro the demo will play. I also would
like the demo to download while the intro is playing as the file is
15mb in size. I have added a second scene to the intro and placed
in frame 1 a command to load the movie (the Captivate movie). At
the end of the intro on Scene 1 I have a frame with a command to go
to scene 2 and play. It functions but the captivate .swf file has
not yet loaded when the scenes switch, hence causing a long break
between scenes.
Any thoughts and/or hints would be greatly appreciated.
JN

What is your operating system & version?
What do you mean by "Flash": Flash Player, Flash Builder, Flash Professional?
What do you mean by "Adobe": Adobe Reader?

    Can you post a sample file? Dragging elements on the Stage of an embedded rich media annotation ishould still work as it did before, provided you have installed the Acrobat Flash Player plugin, but it doesn't work between the Stage and other areas of the screen (or between two separate SWFs).

  • How to allow non-admin users to install software updates of Java, FLASH and Adobe Reader?

    Hi all,
    I have a company (+150 users) and I would like  to allow users to update Java, FLASH and Adobe Reader only.
    These software are already installed in the hosts, but there are updates of the program every week and it needs to be updated.
    How can I give permissions to every user in the domain to do that? Just "Java, FLASH and Adobe Reader"
    Remember that I dont want distribute software because they were installed.
    I tried to enable "Enable user to patch evelated products" directive but it didn't work at my domain.
    is it possible?

    I have a method that works for FLASH player, but am trying to come up with a method for the other 2 myself.  To automate flash player, I created a Policy and added the following:
    Under Computer Config, Prefrences, Windows Setting, Files I created a new File Item.
    I set Action = Replace, Created a Source File named mms.cfg* (more below) and have the destination file as systemroot%\System32\Macromed\Flash\mms.cfg (or %systemroot%\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\mms.cfg for x64)
    I used notepad to edit the mms.cfg, and used the following in the body:
    AutoUpdateDisable=0
    SilentAutoUpdateEnable=1
    AutoUpdateInterval=0
    My non-admin users now update flash in the background silently and automatically.

  • 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

  • I need to download Adobe Macromedia Flash and Adobe won't let me download it until i get a 32 bit version of Firefox. Where on the website can I find this version?

    I'm using Windows 7 and Firefox 3.6.6 as a browser. I need to dowload some Adobe software like Flash and i can't do it because this version of firefox is a 64 bit app. I need a 32 bit FF app/where on the website can i dowload this?
    Thanks
    Tim

    You already have Shockwave Flash 10.2 r152 installed for Firefox on the PC you used to post here, see your ''More system details...'' next to your posting.
    There are no 64-bit builds of Firefox made, only 32-bit currently. There are some 3rd party builds floating around out there, but Mozilla doesn't allow them to be named Firefox - they would be called Namoroka for 3.6 versions. Mozilla does have a Minefield 64-bit build for 4.0-pre versions, but it won't be available as Firefox until probably Firefox 5 is released.
    If your situation is with a different PC than what you used to post here: <br />
    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
    * On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). <br />

  • Widgets in Flash from Adobe Captivate 5

    I have Adobe Captivate5 and Web Premium CS5.  In captivate, when I try to insert a question widget (File, New Project, Widget in Flash, Question) it opens Flash CS5 professional and I get the following error code in the OUTPUT section (in Flash):
    The following JavaScript error(s) occurred:
    At line 39 of file "data-16401608588.jsfl":
    importPublishProfile: Argument number 1 is invalid.
    I am unable to do anything with the widgets in Flash......
    Has anyone had this problem?  How could it be resolved so I can create a question widget using Captivate/Flash?

    This appears to be an issue with Windows 7 if you don't run captivate in administrative mode.  It works once I restarted the program in administrator mode.

  • Flash and Adobe Air weird display on Ubuntu

    I installed Flash on Ubuntu 12.04, and it has a very strange display. Here the way any flash application looks :
    You can see in this image the same page displayed on the left by flash on Ubuntu, and on the right by flash on Windows.
    I am experiencing the same problem with air installer and air applications. Here the way Adobe Air (2.6) installer looks :
    The version 1.5 of Adobe Air displays right, but it's the only one.
    Anyone experienced the same problem ?

    I finally find what the problem was. It has nothing to do with either the server, neither Flash Player or Adobe Air.
    The problem came from mstc window (remote desktop software). By default it was set to display 16bit colors. I might have changed it sometime to 15bit.
    By setting it to 16bit, it solved the problem.

  • Duplicated Flash and Adobe Reader Files cannot be removed -- Help!

    I've just had the pleasure of reloading my XP home OS.  A backup file was created.  Now that all has been restored I cannot remove the CMAP folder and contents as well as the Flash folder and contents from the back-up folder...I've downloaded the Adobe removal tool, but it only works on installed versions...this is a copy or backup.  I've contacted the Adobe Chat folks and been told to caugh up a fee...not happening
    Following a thread earlier posted, I attempted to follow the long list of steps published by Adobe to claim ownership of the files, and change security settings, and then remove the duplicated files. The problem is, the "tabs" refered to do not exist as options when starting the process by right clicking on 'Properties'.
    Can anyone lend a hand??   Many thanks in advance!

    Adobe marks key files as their own, preventing moving, erasing, etc.  XP Home does not offer the security tab feature to take ownership of the files, and then deal with them
    After some serious efforts, I have now removed the duplicated files, and made sure my installation of XP Home has the necessary security tab features to see all files, and take ownership of those that have been placed by a provider wanting to insure as much security as possible.
    Hopefully, this brief overview of the solution will be of help to someone.
    Cheers

  • I recently updated Adobe Flash and Adobe Shockwave, now Firefox will not load. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and still nothing. Help

    Firefox never opens. It is trying but nothing seems to change, no matter how much time is allowed.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Download adobe captivate 8 for mac - please give me a link!

    Hi
    For almost an hour I am now desperately searching a downloadable version of Adobe Captivae 8 for my Mac.
    I purchased a license some time ago (trough my company, this is why it is not connected with my Adobe ID) but after the upgrade of my Mac on Yosemite Adobe Captivate 8 did no longer run. So I had to delete Captivate and now I am desperately trying to download the Software.
    Why do you make this so impossible?
    Don't you think that people have to re-install their legally purchased software sometimes?
    I would like to tell you a bit about my hopeless journey on your website.
    First I came to the website and it was automatically set in French, don't ask me why but there was probably a cookie that was sure I am speaking French - which is not the case.
    When I finally was able to change to English, I started looking for a download Link. But guess what: there was none. Only a Upgrade Download Link, that didn't work.
    Then I had the idea that I could download a trial version of Captivate and enter my serial number afterwards.
    So I had first to log-in into this Adobe ID Account - and of course, I didn't remember the password since I am rarely using your service.
    So I tried to reset my password but I never got an e-mail from Adobe. So I hat to think very hard about this password and after some tries I find it out.
    Finally I logged into my Adobe ID - and it was again - guess what - French. So I spend another 5 Minutes to try to figure out how to change the language.
    Then I finally got the following message: You have already installed a trial of Adobe Captivate on your Mac (YES) please enter a valid serial number to continue to use Adobe Captivate Pro (I would love, but dear, I don't have the trial version installed anymore. I had to delete the software on my Mac). So still no software for me :-(
    So what?
    Would you please be so kind and send me a link to download Adobe Captivate Pro 8 for Mac?
    Thank you very much!

System preferences firewall is off and apps are allowed from anywhere and in Safari other plug ins are allowed and cookies are not blocked and pop up windows are not blocked. Why won't Flash Player download?

    Don't DL Flash from web sites. If you have Adobe Flash installed it should be in System Preferences and you can find the latest version and download from there.
    If you are installing for the first time,this is where to DL it.
