Maybe I don't understand quizzing in captivate 6?

In my project I have several quizes that I don't really want to score but I still want the user to get feedback on right or wrong answers. Also they don't have to actually answer the quiz. They can skip ahead or leave the quiz and go to another page. The last twist is the project is broken into 4 modules that would be taken by 4 different groups. Each may access the same quiz again to just test knowledge. It all appears to be working, but during testing it's been reported that once a set of questions is answered they are locked. So if a user goes throught mod 1 and take a quiz then goes into mod 2 and clicks the quiz it shows up taken. I've read a few post and they show how you can leave a quiz and come back to finish. They show how on the results page you can have a retake button. But I haven't found where I can reset the entire quiz before the person enters into it?

Mark,
Your expectations of how this "should be able to work" are entirely reasonable.
I've been struggling with Captivate's quizzing model ever since I abandoned a custom Flash elearning shell to use Captivate in order to support iOS.
It would be nice if Captivate questions had an option like:
"Reset question on enter slide".
In fact, if you only need HTML5 output, you can do this:  In the "On enter" slide properties box, execute the following javascript on every quiz slide "resetQuizData()". 
I wish I could find the corresponding function call for swf output so I could create a widget that would do the same.
Note that all questions get reset once you show the quiz results screen.
One hack I've been playing with is to jump to the Quiz Results screen after answering every question that won't be in a "final scored quiz". For these question screens, simply set points to zero.  The trick is, use an advanced action to jump to the quiz results screen and then jump back to the page that follows the jump page.
Then in the final quiz, lock the student into the final quiz (by hiding the playbar) until the student finishes all the final quiz questions.

    I got those errors like above!!! I don't understand what the
    instructions said. any assistance would be appreciated!

    David,
    I am afraid that the
    EXCEPTION
    WHEN OTHERS THEN
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ('An error occurred');
    was my fault. I had intended it as an example to provide only
    minimal syntax where no exception handling whatsoever previously
    existed. Beau is a student and I am trying to guide him in the
    right direction without just writing all of it for him. In
    fact, I am afraid I may have already provided too much code
    without sufficient explanation. For you and others who may wish
    to help, here are the e-mails that provide the background on how
    we got to this point, with the most recent on top, starting with
    the last resonse I sent to him:
    Things that are wrong:
    The instructions say to be sure to use the sequence number for
    the student's ID, so you should not have p_stuID as an input
    parameter. Instead you should create a variable and select the
    student_seq.nextval into the variable from the dual table and
    use that value to populate the stuid column.
    Your input parameters should only have the variable type, not
    the size, so just use varchar2 and number.
    The check constraints only belong in the script that is used to
    create the table, not in your procedure with your input
    parameters, so remove them from the procedure.
    The order and number of your columns you are inserting into and
    values you are inserting must match, so if you insert into fname
    then lname, you need to insert the values p_fname then p_lname.
    You must either have first name then last name in both or last
    name then first name in both, not one way in one and the other
    way in the other.
    The idea is that when you execute the procedure you specify the
    values of the input parameter variable, then use those input
    parameter variables to insert the values into the table. You
    should not be specifying any specific values anywhere in your
    procedure. In other words don't insert 'HEATHER', instead
    insert fname, and so on.
    You should only have one insert statement. Each time the
    procedure is executed, a different set of values will be
    provided, and the same insert statement will be used.
    Additional suggestions:
    Although it is not required, since IN is the default, it is
    generally considered to be a good programming practice to use IN
    with your input parameters. It just makes the code easier to
    read and understand. As you write other code, you will learn to
    use OUT for output parameters and IN OUT for parameters that are
    both input and output parameters.
    It is generally recommended to store all data in upper case,
    that is capital letters, so that it is easier to index and
    search and avoid duplicates and so on. In order to ensure that
    your data is input in upper case, it is a good idea to use the
    UPPER function.
    Different programmers and companies have different standards
    that they use for capitalization, indentation, spacing,
    alignment, and so forth to make their code uniform and easier to
    read. You may want to look at some various styles and see what
    you like or ask what your instructor recommends.
    You should add some sort of exception handling section. For
    example, if someone attempts to insert a value for standing that
    isn't acceptable, then the procedure will fail due to the
    constraints and the student will not be added. You probably
    want to display some sort of message to the user. You might
    also want to display a message if the input is successful.
    When you attempt to compile your program and you receive a
    message that says "Warning: Procedure created with compilation
    errors." or some such thing, then from the SQL> prompt, type
    SHOW ERRORS and it will list the error message number, a brief
    description of the problem, and the line of code that the
    problem occurred on. You can then type LIST and it will list
    the code with line numbers, so that you can tell what line
    number the error message is referring to.
    In the following example, I have fixed the things that were
    wrong, formatted it the way I usually do, and added minimal
    exception handling and messages. There is a lot more that you
    could do. I have also demonstrated how the program can be
    tested and the results of proper input and improper input. In
    the example below, two students are added correctly, then an
    attempt to add another fails because the standing is not valid
    and violates a check constraint, because graduate is not
    acceptable. After each execution of the procedure, I have
    queried the table, so that you can see what was added and what
    was not.

    Subject: RE: PL/SQL
    I am not sure what part of it you don't understand.
    The first section that you included is a script that you need to
    copy and run, in order to create the sequences, tables, and data
    that you will need to complete your assignment. You will need
    to edit an empty .sql file, copy the script into the file, save
    the file, then start the file. For example:
    SQL> EDIT test
    Type or copy the script and save the file.
    SQL> START test
    You should see various messages as the items are created. Then
    you can use the following commands to see the tables and
    sequences that you have created:
    SQL> SELECT table_name FROM user_tables;
    SQL> SELECT sequence_name FROM user_sequences;
    To show the structure of an individual table, for example the
    course table:
    SQL> DESC course
    To show the data in an individual table, like the course table:
    SQL> SELECT * FROM course;
    In the second section that you have provided, your instructor is
    asking you to create three different procedures to do three
    different things. To create a procedure, you edit a .sql file,
    type the code to create the procedure, save the file, then start
    the file. I usually make the .sql file name the same as the
    procedure name. So, for example, in number 1, you are asked to
    create a procedure named AddStudent, so you would:
    SQL> EDIT AddStudent
    Type your code.
    Save the file.
    SQL> START AddStudent
    You should receive a message that says:
    Procedure created.
    Then, to execute your procedure:
    SQL> EXEC AddStudent (put your parameter values here)
    The basic syntax for creating a pl/sql procedure is:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE procedure_name
    (put your parameters here)
    AS
    put your variable declarations here;
    BEGIN
    put your code that you want to execute here,
    like insert statements and update statements;
    END procedure_name;
    So, if you are trying to create a procedure to add a new student
    (which means inserting a row into the student table), you will
    need to accept the values (parameters) that you are going to
    insert, then insert them:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE AddStudent
    (p_first .....
    p_last .....
    p_major .....
    p_standing .....
    p_GPA .....)
    AS
    BEGIN
    INSERT INTO student .....;
    END AddStudent;
    I have just given you a starting format and deliberately left
    out a lot, because you will learn more by doing it yourself. I
    hope that makes things a little clearer.
    I would like to know a little more about the class you are
    taking. Please let me know where you are going to school, who
    your instructor is, what is the name of the class you are
    taking, and what book are you using. Also, please let me know
    where you got my e-mail address (from one of the forums?)

    The lab notes from my professor said
    1. your system will often need to create a new student. Write
    PL/SQL code for an object named AddStudent that will take values
    for first and last name, major, standing and GPA and add a new
    record in the Student table. Since advisors aren't assigned at
    registration time, we'll add their advisor at a later date.
    Don't worry about the student's address. Be sure to use the
    sequence number for the student's ID.
    2. Write a procedure that will retrieve an existing record in
    Enrollment usiing the student and section Ids and set the grade
    to a specified value. (use update instead of insert)
    3. Write another procedure that will assign a given student a
    given advisor.

  • Maybe I don't understand what sync does.

    So I dock my ipod, and charge it. I decide to put the rest of the music on my computer onto it. So I hit sync. Instead of adding files that aren't on the ipod it deletes everything but the podcasts on it. My question is why did it do that? I thought that if I hit sync it would add files that were not already on the iPod, am I missunderstanding something here?

    This exact same thing happens to me. Except, only when I wish to Sync videos/movies.
    I have learned to manually drag EVERYTHING onto my iPod manually. Every time I hit Sync I shouldnt have to cross my fingers and say a prayer in hopes it wont wipe everything off. I think I am going to try the new Winamp this weekend and see if it is less schitzo.
    This is my first iPod. Second if you count the 5.5gen that was purchased early august and returned just the day the new Pods were announced. But, the 5.5 had that Sync problem too.
    Anyway, first iPod is the first Apple product I purchased since ditching the Mac OS in 2000. Let's just say that already I am sick of this iPod and sick to death of Apple.

  • Filter don't work or I don't understand the workflow

    Hi.
    Mac OS X 10.6.8
    Aperture 3.2.4
    I use AP for long time without problems.
    Maybe I don't understand the workflow of filters.
    I edit some photos, make HDRs and use external Plugins from Nik.
    When I use the filter to show TIFFs or edit with external applications I don't see the fotos when I use both rules.
    When I use only TIFFs I see TIFFs but only BlackWhite fotos. The colored HDRs also TIFFs but I don't see it.
    When I use only External Edit I see HDRs but only colored HDRs.
    When I use both I see nothing, see screenshot.
    Make I a mistake  ?
    I will not use keyword AP should do his job.

    Maybe my question is not clear.
    A additionally screenshot is more clear.

  • Which Mac Pro? More cores=slower speeds? And most of us know the speed matters or FPU for music and I don't understand the faster is for the least amount of procs. And while I get the whole rendering thing and why it makes sense.

    Which Mac Pro? More cores=slower speeds? And most of us know the speed matters or FPU for music and I don't understand the faster is for the least amount of procs. And while I get the whole rendering thing and why it makes sense.
    The above is what the bar says. It's been a while and wondered, maybe Apple changed the format for forums. Then got this nice big blank canvas to air my concerns. Went to school for Computer Science, BSEE, even worked at Analog Devices in Newton Massachusetts, where they make something for apple. 
    The bottom line is fast CPU = more FPU = more headroom and still can't figure out why the more cores= the slower it gets unless it's to get us in to a 6 core then come out with faster cores down the road or a newer Mac that uses the GPU. Also. Few. I'm the guy who said a few years ago Mac has an FCP that looks like iMovie on Steroids. Having said that I called the campus one day to ask them something and while I used to work for Apple, I think she thought I still did as she asked me, "HOW ARE THE 32 CORES/1DYE COMING ALONG? Not wanting to embarrass her I said fine, fine and then hung up.  Makes the most sense as I never quite got the 2,6,12 cores when for years everything from memory to CPU's have been, in sets of 2 to the 2nd power.  2,4,8,16,32,64,120,256,512, 1024, 2048,4196,8192, 72,768.  Wow. W-O-W and will be using whatever I get with Apollo Quad. 
    Peace to all and hope someone can point us in THE RIGHT DIRECTION.  THANK YOU

    My Question now is this, get an 8 core, then replace with 2 3.7 QUAD CHIPS, what would happen?
    I also noticed that the 8 core Mac Pro is 3.0 when in fact they do have a 3.4 8 core chip, so 2 =16? Or if correct, wouldn't you be able to replace a QUAD CHIP WITH THAT?  I;M SURE THEY ARE UO TO SOMETHING AS 1) WE HAVE SEEN NO AUDIO FPU OR PERHAPS I SHOULD CHECK OUT PC MAKERS WINDOWS machines for Sisoft Sandra "B-E-N-C-H-M-A-R-K-S" -

  • Apparently I don't understand a feature correctly in Mac mail version 6.6

    I am a little confused about what the difference is between a new mailbox and a new smart mailbox in mail. I wanted to create one folder that I can put all my mail into so that I can use my inbox as a sort of a "tickler file". I created a new "mailbox" from the little plus sign at the bottom left of the screen and chose "on my mac" and named it "archive". I moved every email from my inboxes (from multiple email accounts) into this. Was this the correct way to accomplish my goal?
    Unfortunately I felt uncomfortable about this action and then became confused and tried to undo what I had done by moving them back to the inbox so that I could delete the "archive" "mailbox" I had created. I didn't feel like I had accomplished my goal correctly because I don't understand how this new system of "mailboxes and smart mailboxes" fully works and why there are not just simple folders anymore! I deleted the archive mailbox I had created and it apparently deleted ALL of my emails from off of my mac for only one of my email accounts! What is going on!? I just want to simply be able to organize my email workflow with one simple folder. I don't want to set permissions for this folder or anything. Can someone PLEASE help me understand what the heck I've done wrong and how I can get my emails back into mail from my server?
    Thank you!

    Your original action is alright but maybe not what you wanted.
    A mailbox is a physical thing (a folder) you can add locally to your mac.  You can move emails into it and they will leave the IMAP folder they were in and reside on your mac.  What's left on the server is your "tickler" file.
    Alternatively, you could create an IMAP mailbox called archive and put mail there.  Then the mail would still be on the server but in the archive folder.  The easiest way to remember this is "An IMAP mailbox on your mac is a copy/cache/clone of the same mailbox on the server"  that is why you can see it on all your devices and a change on one means a change to all.  If you want access to this "archive" from all your devices, then it needs to be a server IMAP mailbox.
    A smart mailbox is really just a filter.  It's like a saved search.  Mail that meets the search criteria shows up in the smart mailbox.  Nothing is moved.

  • Don't understand the cc cleaner tool

    Good morning and happy new year.
    I must be the dumbest people here but I tried to follow the cc cleaner tool process explained here and I'm at a loss and stopped before making a fool of myself.
    I went through the process 1 and 2 ie. I have a disk repair and an external disk backup of my system driver. (I use Win 7 Ultimate fully updated). My projects are NOT on the system drive as well as all the clips I use .
    question : Will CC cleaner delete on the system drive any information related to my projects? I need a precise answer: No or Yes. The "perhaps", "maybe" etc evavive answers are not acceptable in such situations.
    In  the step 2 of the help file I uninstalled with Win 7 uninstall manager different elements from CC and CS 6 that either I have no use of or that I wont use anymore as I want to stick to the latest version of CC which are PPro, AE  and Mediaencoder for the moment.
    We arrive to step 3 and there I just don't understand why I should have to uninstall programs I uninstalled in the previous step. Will that step totally erase the whole programs of CC for example, or will it just clean remaining items or directories specifically related to for instance Prelude CC 2014 ? Can't people who write these messages in their scripts be once and for all precise in their wording saying what will be done?!
    In this present instance I need to make a clean re-install of Mediaencoder CC as there has been most probably a problem during the recent update although it was completed without any error messages; I can't anymore re encode a project although I have not changed a line of it! The program stops suddenly and reboots my computer. I have not changed anything in the computer as well and the hardware is not the cause of the problem as it is only Media encoder which provokes the crash when it did not before the update.
    This will be probably considered an ill mannered way of presenting my problem by I'm sorry to say that one cannot work cautiously enough and I don't want to see weeks of work erased and not usable even with backups because a user manual is not clear and precise in its wording. This infuriates me and I wish to know where I set foot!
    Again sorry for my bad temper but really this is stressing.
    Thanks in advance for your help

    My project is on driver G, my clips are on D, E and G, with a majority of them on G; Cloud CC 2014 is on Driver C with Windows 7
    B/What version of Premiere Pro are you running currently? Do you have any third party plug-ins or hardware you using in conjunction with Premiere Pro? Do you know what version of Media Encoder you were using successfully before the recent update and you started having problems?
    I use exclusively since I took the subscription to Cloud CC, the latest versions, I check updates or upgrades every week and of course get notification also by the automatic Cloud manager of any new version. My last update was done on the 30th of December 2014. So yes I run with the most recent programs; the problems occurred just after! And got aggravated yesterday for no reason when Media encoder and Premiere Pro did not recognized MP4 format clips with an error message that the format was not supported!!! I hope Adobe did not decide to abandon this format, because it would put my 2 projects in full jeopardy!
    Before the last update I had no problems. I have uploaded on Vimeo a provisional encoded file (see
    with password rja404177 .
    I decided  to separate my project in two master projects concerning each of them the 2 parts of the video, with different names as to make the projects less heavy to manage by the computer and also easier to correct or change some of the effects controls especially the use of the curves RGB effect. I have a problem of getting an even colorimetric view between three different sources of files and cameras, one source is analog, the others HD and one of the latest has been more or less over exposed, so I check every clips with the YCscope and RGB parade and Vectorscope ( there could be a problem of color broadcast due to the red of the cliffs). Just imagine what would happen If I had to do it again! The full video is 1h10 minutes long! The video here corresponds to the first master project before the division in two parts. As I use nested sequences I have transferred in the master sequence here the 3 first sequences of the film (Titles, Las Vegas to Lee's Ferry, 1st day on the river).
    Yes I have Video Copilot addons but which are not used in the project as well as Red Giant Universe Premium also not used here. In fact I seldom use special effects in these projects as they are kind of documentary on my raft trip down the Colorado in 1995 updated with films of two friends done 2011 and 2013. The only effects used are Cross dissolve and the Slide push one twice in the project for the last one. I use otherwise the default controls of scale and opacity if necessary. Soundwise, my tracks are declared 5.1 and used in conjunction with Audition CC (I've been a user of this last program for many years since it's creation by Syntrillium under the name CoolEdit Pro before Adobe acquired it!)
    May I add that I'm not a novice with computers although an old froggy of 73!LOL! I began using computers in 1972 besides my job of Financial Analyst. I developed software in APL+ for stocks buy and sell decision making and created in France the first financial database in 1978 I was considered at that time like a perfect crazy guy in my business, good to be put in an asylum!!!. Since then I must say I had a good laugh! Try to prevent a trader to use a computer and databases nowadays and you'll see the speed at which he will throw you out of the window!
    C/I would probably have focused on just Media Encoder if possible but whats done is done. Maybe you did?
    Yes you're right I sort of thought of Media encoder first, but revised my way of dealing with the problem thinking that may be the installation had not been done correctly although no problem occurred during the update. I always update one program at a time waiting it to be fully completed before clicking on the install button of the next one.
    D/ about the two methods of uninstall.
    You say "The cleaner tool removes the same directories as the standard uninstaller. However the uninstaller is definitely the preferred method as it is done in conjunction with OS and the registry versus scripts which don't. The cleaner tool is generally used when the standard uninstall method fails "
    May I say I'm not sure this is the right way to do from the user viewpoint. It is misleading. I'm again neither a professional in development although I mentioned what I did when I was not retired, and not a professional in Video editing etc.. I just address the problem from the user's point of view. If Adobe thinks that the Management panel solution is the best solution to have all the files eliminated let's stick to it. In fact one can see by using the CCleaner program that it does not eliminate all the register's problems after having uninstalled a program. So perhaps then it is justified to use also the Adobe CC Cleaner device. Then may I suggest that the phrasing of the step 3 be changed to make the user understand its real purpose. From what you say one induces that they are complementary. This should be perfectly clear in the user's brain.  When I tried to find answers to my problems on the forums it showed many times that people did not really understand what would happen, how the device was going to work. That's why I insisted in my question on the "precise, yes or no " etc.. answers required. I can dedicate time to such questioning, I doubt a professional having to deliver a final product under contract has time to make hypothesis on this matter if it occurs to him such mishaps....
    E/ miscellaneous questions:
    Yes I use the default format proposed by Media encoder H.264  preset : Match source high bitrate which matches my project's settings. It worked three times before the update without an hitch. Why should not it go on like that?
    The encoded files are saved either on the driver of the project file, or on the E external driver to make sure I do not erase the final encoded file by mistake. Poirot's little grey cells are a little bit rusty nowadays!
    I had no problems before the update by working like that.
    I did not try a different codec before the last event which is the impossibility of using my MP4 clips. By the way the projects contain also AVI uncompressed (codec UYVY) files (My quicktime version is also updated) and the native files of my Canon Legria AVCHD camera (AVC format) and  I used the AVI uncompressed format because I wanted to derush my analog files to eliminate any shots which were of poor quality. I use for this a small software: AVI Cutty which works only with AVI uncompressed files. So I used Media Encoder to pre encode my analog files in this format first; It separate automatically my videos in clips more or less corresponding to scenes. Again I had no problem since I began to use Adobe software more than a year ago with CS5.5 and then with CC 2014 since last September as a yearly subscriber.
    Both projects have the same problem.
    I checked the Windows task manager while encoding and I observed this:
    a/ the crash occurs randomly in time.
    b/ it seems that each time the encoding passes on a cross dissolve section (I'm not certain of that it can be also the changes in the curves RGB effects settings from one clip to the other.) the CPU usage curve reaches a peak around 95 to nearly 100%. I suppose the crash occurs when the 100%+ is reached.
    c/I've checked my system driver's integrity, there is no problem here. I did the same for the memory which is ok too.
    d/ No I did put the question on other forums because I did not find the right place to put it.
    I do my best not to pollute other forums with non related questions.
    e/ As for the recognition of the MP4 files, other programs like the Windows mediaplayer recognize them so it's not a question of corrupted files.
    f/ I've just checked with the reinstalled media encoder. I did not re-encode but I do not get any more messages that the MP4 format is not recognized! Thank god! Remains to test the re-encoding itself and PP when the installation is over.
    Well I hope this long answer gives you a better idea of what is going on. I'm finishing right now the re installation of PP AE Media encoder and Audition and will come back to you with the results.
    Thanks again
    Best
    Claude

  • Don't understand Inner Classes and how to use it

    Hi
    As you guess i 'am a newbie!
    I don't understand Inner Classes, particulary members(methods & fields) that an Inner method is able to manipulate.
    So I know that the methods of an Inner class (respectively Outer Class) instance can access members (private or public) of an instance of the Outer Class (respectively Inner Class).
    I tried to answer to a quizz : http://java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/new2java/supplements/quizzes/January03.html
    In the following class definition, which variables are inaccessible within the method of the inner class?
    class Test1 {
       public static int a = 1;
       private static int b = 2;
       public int c = 3;
       private int d = 4;
       public static class Inner {
         int e = 5;
         public void aMethod(int f) {
           int g = 6;
           // What can't be accessed here?
    }A.      b, c, d
    B.      c, d
    C.      b, c, d, f
    D.      None of them
    In my opinion members (public or private) of the Outer Class can be accessed by methods of the Inner Class; e.g: a, b, c,d thus for me the answer is D.
    Obviously i'm wrong, but why?

    http://java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/new2java/
    supplements/quizzes/January03.html
    In the following class definition, which variables
    are inaccessible within the method of the inner
    class?
    class Test1 {
    public static int a = 1;
    private static int b = 2;
    public int c = 3;
    private int d = 4;
    public static class Inner {
    int e = 5;
    public void aMethod(int f) {
    int g = 6;
    // What can't be accessed here?
    }A.      b, c, d
    B.      c, d
    C.      b, c, d, f
    D.      None of them
    In my opinion members (public or private) of the
    Outer Class can be accessed by methods of the Inner
    Class; e.g: a, b, c,d thus for me the answer is
    D.
    Obviously i'm wrong, but why?Inner class method can access all the private members of the class. But the inner class is static. So the non-static members cannot be accessed directly (i.e. c and d).

  • Best way to achieve multiple paths with quizzes using Captivate 6?

    I’m looking for the best way to achieve multiple paths and quizzes using Captivate 6.
    Here is the scenario: The learner watches general slides 1 – 3 and then chooses between Path A, Path B, or both paths combined.  If they choose Path A then they watch the A portion only and take the A Quiz only. Same happens for Path B and for the two paths combined. The learner would only have to go one path to complete the course.
    What I’m finding is Captivate only has one Quiz results page (even if you create two separate quizzes, it merges them). I was trying to avoid having three separate projects for the same module to keep it simple. I see if I have three separate projects I could use the Multi-SCO Packager to merge them for use on my Moodle LMS. But wait, I don't have the elearning suite, so I don't have access to the Multi-SCO Packager...
    My question is: What is the best approach way to accomplish this goal? Any recommendations?

    Captivate 6 has Branch Aware quizzing.  Turn on that option in Quiz Settings and then your Quiz Results page should only show results for the branch your user visits.

  • Sound sync problem I don't understand

    Hi. First post.
    I have video with audio from the camera captured into iMovie. I also have separate audio from the same event through a firewire mixer into garageband exported as aif. (One of these days I'll get it all working into final cut).
    My goal is to use the "firewire" audio with the video track. The video has a 10 minute gap in the middle, but the audio is continuous.
    So I synchronize at the beginning, no problem. I then cut the extra audio piece out of the middle, and synchronize the beginning of the second part, no problem.
    The first part is in perfect sync, beginning to end. But the second part goes increasingly out of sync the further into the timeline we go. I don't understand why the first part remains in perfect sync, but after cutting a little, the second part can't be sync'd up with the video track. Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance,
    Howie

    I am using Final Cut Express to do the editing.
    The camera video/audio was captured from a Canon XHA1 in 4:3 SD mode into iMovie, and then exported to a quicktime movie, DV/DVCPRO-NTSC 48khz.
    The "high quality audio" was captured via firewire into garageband, edited for levels on different tracks, then exported to itunes, then converted to aif, 48khz.
    Both were imported into FCE. I rendered the audio for playback. I don't have any red lines in the sequence (I'm a beginner at FCE).
    The out of sync problem was not part of the original video clip. It is with the external firewire audio BUT only with the second part of the video... i.e. the second video clip from iMovie. The iMovie capture had two clips, exported together into the single quicktime movie that was imported into FCE.
    So maybe it has something to do with the two different video clips in iMovie... but I don't know what the difference could be.

  • HT4847 Don't understand the purpose of icloud storage

    Hello,
    Maybe I'm alone on this one, but even after reading Apple's articles on iCloud and iCloud storage, I don't understand the purpose of it.  I am only using 23.5 of a 25 Go storage (all of it is backup of all my apps and files (not sure the movies and music is covered even though the iPad general setting info implies this since I'm in Europe) and yet, if I delete the app files from the iPad, I also delete them from the cloud.  So for instance, I want to update to the latest iOS and it says I'm short 312 Mo and need to delete stuff from the iPad. 
    If I understand correctly, the only way to do this safely is to make sure a duplicate is on my PC via iTunes. So then what do I need the iCloud extra storage for (for which I am paying)?  Is this like a SkyDrive or Dropbox or not???
    Please someone clear this up in simple, step-by-step type language.  I feel like I'm getting a round around when I read or take to Apple folks via email.  Thanks in advance!

    Movies, music and apps are not part of your back ups, they are all available already on Apples servers as part of the iTunes Store. Backups consist of settings, photos and other data which cannot be obtained from elsewhere.
    iCloud is not general online storage like Dropbox, in addition to back ups it keeps all your app data from apps such as contacts, calendars etc so it can be accessed by all your devices and keep them in sync. But in keeping with the mobile system structure the data is accessed through the app rather than a folder structure.

  • Don't understand the workflow in e-commerce

    Is there a place to see the backend of an online store working, or to see how it's supposed to be set up? My previous experience with shipping cart systems is that once the order is placed, it gives you the ability to change the status of the order, from something like "processing" to "shipped" or maybe "In Progress". Once you change it to "Shipped", it updates the customer via email and it takes the order off any WIP reports.
    I setup the online store in a dummy company, and ordered something from it, using "COD" for payment, then I went to see how all that worked. I can't see anything that moves the order through the process to the end. It looks like that might be something I have to setup with workflows. Is that correct? If not, how does the order go from a new order to a shipped order?
    I'm sure it does it or can do it, I just don't understand the way it all works. A tutorial or demo would be great, but I haven't been able to locate one.
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Hi,
    The order status is changed as explained here -> http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/kb/order-status.html
    and payment is applied to the cash order as explained here -> http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/kb/order-payments.html
    Hope that helps!
    Please let us know for any further assistance.

  • Archive and Install--I don't understand it!

    I'm a long time Mac user, but I have never done an A&I. I have to do one now according to the Apple support guys.
    My questions:
    Will I have to reinstall all my non-Apple applications?
    Will I lose any files?
    I've been reading old threads, but I still don't understand what happens if you do NOT check the "preserve users and network settings"? Will I lose my files?
    I am backing up right now using iBackup, but frankly I don't have a clue how to restore if needed. Will I need to restore?
    I know this isn't an erase and install, but I've always avoided all of this because the articles get so complicated.
    Proving that I would never, ever make it on a PC...

    Hey.
    Since you seem to have tried mostly everything, apart from exchanging the motherboard, I'd say you have at least one option left, and that's to reinstall Windows from the recovery partition / recovery discs. That might solve the problem, if this is due to a software-error. General updates etc. might not work to fix such problems, but a clean install should.
    If that doesn't help, I'd say the problem is somewhere either with the CPU or the motherboard, maybe bad connections or some sort of malfunction that prevents the computer from coming out of the 100% CPU usage.
