Need help with publishing multimedia ebook.
I'm about to publish a multimedia ebook that I would like to be available on laptops as well as multiple devices, iPads, tablets, etc. I like the interactivity of the iAuthor platform but then only those with iPads can read it? I need it to be available to a wider audience and available in different online stores. Should I publish in InDesign or iAuthor. Do I publish as a ebook or as an App. Anyone here involved in multimedia publishing. Very confusing.
If you try to 'publish' as an app, and you use the words ebook or just book, the review teams are likely to reject and tell you to do a book instead, so be prepared to not call it any type of book and to deliver something that showcases the device and iOS as best as you can if you take that route...it's non-trivial, mostly, so be prepared to learn any skills you may not have yet need going in.
Look at the book 'Yellow Submarine' for what I consider a good example of a standard epub w/m'media. it can be done, but as noted, iBA is iPad only, so....good luck.

Need help with publishing -- highlight boxes and recordings
I'm having a problem with publishing a presentation. I've recorded audio for PP slides and added highlight boxes. I've tested these in Edit mode - the recordings work fine and the highlight boxes appear correctly as per their settings. When I go to publish, some of the recordings and highlight boxes are not working on some of the slides (but work fine on other slides). Obviously I've missed some setting on these but I cannot figure out what and where. Could anyone please help??
Just kidding. Now, the files seem to be uploaded and in the right folder; however, now the page just isn't loading. See what I mean, everything going wrong?!

Need help with publishing as animated .gif
I'm having trouble publishing my project as an animated .gif. My project, which consists of two different animated movie clips, plays just fine when test it (Shift + Enter). But, when I go to publish it, the animations don't show up. The settings are exactly the same as with my other animated .gifs.
Any suggestions???

Need help with publishing for web
Hi,
I am a new user to Captivate but am trying to create an
online demo that will be accessible via a link on a website.
I have recorded the content and have added the animation.
I have published the file as an executable and also as a
flash (export to html). I have then opened the demo on a variety of
PC systems to see the quality of my project. I am discouraged
because in an executable and in a web browser my project is much
larger than what I created and on some slides I do not believe the
complete image is visible (on some systems). Is there any way to
control the size of the executable or html final project?
I am curious to what other have done to produce a high
quality end result demo. Any suggestions, or advice would be much
appreciated.
Thanks,
AlllisonHi Allison and welcome to our community
What you have posted would seem to suggest you have created
.SWF output with the .HTM companion page (Export HTML).
Contrary to what you may believe, the Export HTML option
doesn't produce a pure HTML version of your movie. Instead, it
produces an additional HTML page intended to be used to cause your
movie to display at the size in which you recorded it.
So again, what you have posted would seem to indicate you are
linking directly to the raw .SWF and bypassing the HTML page. If
you do this, the .SWF simply opens at whatever size the browser is
configured for.
Or... possibly you recorded full screen. (not best practice
by any means) If you recorded at perhaps 1024x768, when your user
plays the movie back, they get scroll bars as the browser area is
reduced so it can display the "chrome" elements. Buttons and
whatnot. So best practice in this situation is to record at a
smaller size that will comfortably play back for your end users.
Not only from the physical size perspective, but the "weight" of
the bandwidth needed to pull the movie down. (The larger the
physical recorded size, the more bandwidth is required).
Cheers... Rick :) -
Need help with publishing my Flash doc.
Hi,
I have used Flash very lightly for a couple of years and I've
been running across a problem recently that I can't figure out.
Whenever I try to perform "Test Movie," "Debug Movie," "Test
Scene," "Publish Preview," or "Publish", the progress bar moves
only about half-way across, it stops for awhile, and then I get an
error message saying that there wasn't enough memory to complete
the task.
I have published older versions of this same site without a
problem, and I am sure that the new objects that I have added
aren't any different than the objects that I've added before. I
just added a new movie that is very basic. This happened before and
I managed to get it to work but now I can't remember what I did and
I'm losing momentum. Any help would be appreciated. Is there a way
to increase the memory that is designated to creating an .swf file?
All I need is to create the swf... the flash doc. is ready! I can't
even preview it :( Frustrated...
Thanks,
Lauryn
If someone is willing to help, I can email you my .fla file
so you can check it out... I would really appreciate it. Otherwise,
just advice is greatly welcomed.Just kidding. Now, the files seem to be uploaded and in the right folder; however, now the page just isn't loading. See what I mean, everything going wrong?!

I need help with publishing a book I'm creating on my MBP...Anyone help?
Hi,
I,m in the middle of compiling data that I intend to create a book of some kind with. Mostly text, not too much in thew way of graphics or pictures, although I cant rule that out.
Right now, my raw text is in MS Word for the Mac, with no other page formatting than 1" borders all the way round. I figured I could just put the data there for now, as a place to store it, in native Word format.
I'm not at all opposed to using different software, or other techniques to do this project. I've never even tried doing something like this before, and I admit, my Word skills are not that great either.
This will be all new to me. I can't afford alot, but I can learn to do most of whatever work I can do, myself.
Any and all suggestions would be appreciated!!

When I'm done doing that, I might want to self-publish, and print it, maybe just for me... Not sure yet.....
If you're just going to print it out for yourself, you could just use Word. If you want multiple copies printed, though, and want to use a self-publishing house, it's probably best to contact them. Some might take Word files, while others might want PDF files from a page-layout program.
In general, you'll be able to make your book look nicer if, once you're done, you use a page layout program like InDesign or Quark Xpress to take your Word files and lay out the pages. I think you could also use Pages, though I did see once place that had a complaint about the quality of the PDF files it creates. But again, this would depend on who you have actually print your book.

I Need help with IK Multimedia T-Racks 3
I have some questions about T-Racks that you guys might know about. I recently updated my Mac Pro and when I did this, I had to re-authorize T-Racks. After I authorized again, I went to play my tracks and the music was starting a half measure after I pressed play and when I pressed the pause button, the song stopped a half measure later.
I have found out that the problem is T-Racks because Logic is fine now but I am in dire need of T-Racks Deluxe 3 for my tracks. Any help would be AMAZING!
Thank You!The battery has an expected life of nearly 1000 cycles so 13 isn't much.

Need help with a Asus 27" monitor with webcam problem.
Need help with a Asus 27" monitor I bought. Model VK278Q. The issue is that the webcam will not work properly. Various applications can see the webcam, but I just get a black box. From what I have read, the issue seems to be that there are no official drivers for the webcam.
I thought someone in this community might be able to offer some help before I return the monitor. I read somewhere that it may be possible to tweat the OS so that the iSight software will work for the monitor webcam.
ThxNAVARRO360 wrote: ... there is no simple fix? ...
Eureka! You now understand the situation.
Even the old standard for Mac OS X drivers for non-compatible cams, macam, says that it has no driver for ASUS (20") monitor camera.
The macam status shows:
not working (no documentation)
With no working driver for the 20" ASUS, it is not surprising that there is none for the 27" either. There may be good reason that ASUS won't (or can't) offer either the technical documentation or a Mac driver for their monitor's inbuilt webcam. However, they apparently do not publish that information.
If ASUS Technical Support cannot provide the driver you need for OS X, the ASUS will continue to be a ridonculous (sic) monitor whose webcam will not work with your OS X Mac. The only other simple fix I can think of is to use the ASUS with a different PC that is compatible with this monitor and its inbuilt webcam. What you do is certainly your choice.

I followed a tut and learned how to do everything I'll need.
I'm a kid, so I don't need to be professional about anything.
Anyways, the tutorial left out the last part. How to publish your
website. It said to find a guide in the help from dreamweaver, but
I didn't find it. If anybody could sum it up for me, simple or not,
it would be greatly appreciated.> Would he be able to give it to me
Yes - he would relay to you the FTP login information sent to
him by his
host.
Alternatively, you could give him the files, and let him
upload them using
that same FTP information.

Need help with BARS 4.0.12 - 4.0.13 upgrade
Hello,
I'm a VoIP noob and need help with a BARS upgrade. To resolve a known problem (Bug #CSCsi32637) we need to upgrade BARS from 4.0.12 to 4.0.13. This is per TAC. However, no one in our company has done this before. I've reviewed the 4.0.12 Admin Guide since I was unable to find any admin docs for 4.0.13. However, I have several questions about this upgrade that hopefully someone here can help with:
1) The install for 4.0.12 requires a reboot of the server. Is this the same for 4.0.13?
2) CCM version is 4.1(3)sr6; any problems known with BARS 4.0.13 and this version of CCM? I didn't see
anything in the Rel Notes or via the Bug Toolkit (figure it never hurts to ask).
3) Will the previously input configuration settings (i.e., Data Source Servers, Storage Location, Schedule) be preserved or will I have to reinput these settings?
4) Any known issues with performing this upgrade while controlling the server via VNC?
5) The 4.0.12 docs state that "To successfully back up the Cisco Unified CallManager database, the backup server and backup targets must exist in the same cluster and have the same version of BARS installed". So BARS must be installed on my publisher (the Backup Server) AND my three subscribers? I'm not finding BARS on these subscribers now.
Many Thanks for any input,
Brian Read1) Yes, any version requires reboot after install
2) not that i'm aware of
4) you'll need to reconfigure it
5) no
6) although it's recommended there is no real need to backup any other server than the PUB which contains the master DB, any SUB only needs to pull the info from PUB in case of crash and reinstall

Need help with a currently "in-use" form we want to switch to Adobes hosting service
Hi, I am in desperate need of help with some issues concerning several forms which we currently use a paid third party (not Adobe) to host and "re-distribute through email"...Somehow I got charged $14.95 for YOUR service, (signed up for a trial, but never used it)..and now I am paying for a year of use of the similar service which Adobe is in control of. I might want to port my form distribution through Adobe in the hopes of reducing the errors, problems and hassles my customers are experiencing when some of them push our "submit button". (and I guess I am familiar with these somewhat from reading what IS available in here, and I also know that, Adobe is working to alleviate some of these " submit" issues, so let's don't start by going backwards, here) I need solutions now for my issues or I can leave it as is, If Adobe's solution will be no better for my end users...
We used FormsCentral to code these forms and it works for the most part (if the end-user can co-operate, and thats iffy, sometimes), but I need help with how to make it go through your servers (and not the third party folks we use now), Not being cruel or racist here, but your over the phone "support techs" are about horrible & I cannot understand them or work with any of them, so I would definitely need someone who speaks English and can understand the nuances of programming these forms, to please contact me back. (Sorry, but both those attributes will be required to be able to help me, so, no "newbie-interns" or first week trainees are gonna cut it).... If you have anyone who fits the bill on those items and would be willing to help us, please contact me back at your earliest convenience. If we have to communicate here, I will do that & I can submit whatever we need to & to whoever we need to.
I need to get this right and working for the majority of my users and on any platform and OS.
You may certainly call me to talk about this, and I have given my number numerous times to your (expletive deleted) time wasting - recording message thingy. So, If it's not available look it up under [email protected]
(and you will probably get right to me, unlike my and I'm sure most other folks', "Adobe phone-in experiences")
Thank You,

Phenix City, Alabama 36869Well, thanks for writing back...just so you know...I started using Adobe products in 1987, ...yeah...back then...like Illustrator 1 & 9" B&W Macs ...John Warnock's Helvetica's....stuff like that...8.5 x 11 LaserWriters...all that good stuff...I still have some of it working on a mac...much of it was stuff I bought. some stuff I did not...I'm not a big fan of this "cloud" thing Adobe has foisted upon the creatives of the world...which I'm sure you can tell...but the functionality and usefulness of your software can not be disputed, so feel free to do whatever we will continue to pay for, ...I am very impressed with CC PS on the 64 bit PC and perhaps I will end up paying you the stipend that you demand for the other services.
So I guess that brings us to our problem.. a few years back and at the height of the recession and near bankruptcy myself, I was damn lucky and hit on something and began a small arts and crafts supply service to sell my products online to a very "niche market" ...I had a unique product and still sell that product (plus others) online...My website is www.vinylcouture.com...Strange? Yes...but there is a market it seems, for everything now, and this is the market I service...Catagorically, these are 99%+ women that use these "adhesive, sticky backed vinyl products" to make different "craft items" that are just way too various and numerous to go into... generally older women, women who are computer illiterate for the most part...and all this is irrelevant to my problem, but I want you to have every bit of background on this and especially the demographic we are dealing with, so we can get right to the meat of the problem.
OK...So about two years ago, I decided to offer a "plain sheet" product of a plain colored "stick back" vinyl... it is available in multiple quantities of packs ( like 5 pieces, 10 pieces, 15 pieces, in a packi & so on)...and if you are still on my site.. go to any "GO RIGHT TO OUR ORDER PAGE" button, scroll down a little...and then to the "PLAIN VINYL" section...you will see the Weebly website order process.) You can back out from here, I think,..but, anyway this product is available in 63 colors + or - a few. So then the problem is, how do they select their individual colors within that (whatever) pack?... .
So my initial idea was to enable a "selection form" for these "colors" that would be transmitted to me via email as 'part" of the "order process".. We tried getting our customers to submit a " a list" ( something my competitiors still do, lol, poor bastards)......but that..is just unbelievable..I can't even begin to tell you what a freakin' nightmare that was...these people cannot even count to 10, much less any higher... figuring out what colors to list and send me... well, lets just say, it wasn't working......I had to figure out a better way...Something had to be done.
So after thinking this all out, and yeah...due to my total ignorance, i figured that we could make a form with Live Cycle Designer (Now Forms Central)...(back then something that was bundled with Adobe Acrobat Pro), I believe, and thats what this thing was authored in... and it would be all good...LOL!
Well not so simple...as you well know, Adobe Acrobat would NOT LET YOU EMAIL anything from itself.....it just wouldn't work (and I know why, and all that hooey), but not being one to take NO for answer,.I started looking for a way to make my little gizmo work.. So I found this company that said they can "hijack" (re-direct actually) the request to email, bypass the wah-wah, and re-transmit it to the proper parties.....for less than $100 a year, I think...its called http://pdf-fillableforms.com/.
A nice gentleman named Joseph Silva helped us program the thing to go to his servers and back out. Please dont hassle them...I need them...for now..it basically does work...try it...you should get back a copy of the form that you filled out...good luck however, if you're on MAC OSX or similar...
I have included a copy of both of our forms (and feel free to fill it out and play with it)...just put test somewhere on it...(and you must include YOUR email or it will balk)..they are supposed to be mostly identical, except one seems to be twice as large....generating a 1.7 meg file upon submission, while the other one only generates a 600K file or so...thats another issue for another day or maybe you can advise on that also...
OK so far so good......In our shop, once Grandma buys a 10 pack (or whatever), Only then she gets to the link on her receipt page ro the relevant "selection form" ,(this prevents "Filling and Sending" with "no order" and "no payment", another early problem we had)... which they can click on and it will usually download and open up on their device if all goes well...Then our little form is supposed to be fillable and is supposed to ADD UP all the quantities, so grandma knows how many she is buying and so forth right on the fly, and even while she changes her mind..., and IT'S LARGE so grandma can see it, and then it TOTALS it all up for them, ( cause remember, they can NOT add).., except there is a programming bug (mouse-click should be a mouse-up probably or something..) which makes you click in the blank spaces to get to a correct TOTAL...about 70-80% of our customers can enable all these features and usually the process completes without problems for them especially on PC's running Windows OS and Acrobat Reader X or XI...at least for most... Unfortunately it is still not the "seamless process" I would like or had envisioned for the other folks out there that do have trouble using our form.... Many folks report to us the following issues that we know of. First of all it takes too much time to load up...We know its HUGE...is there anyway that you can see, to streamline this thing? I would love for it to be more compact...this really helps on the phones and pads as I'm sure you well know.
Some just tell us,"it WON'T work"....I believe this is because they are totally out of it and dont even have Adobe Reader on their machine, & don't know how to get it ( yes, we provide the links).....or it's some ancient version....no one can stop this one...
It almost always generates some kind ( at least one time) of "error message" which we do warn them about..., telling one, basically that "Acrobat doesnt even like this happening at all, and it could be detrimental to ones computer files", blah-blah...(this freaks grandma out really bad)...& usually they end up not even trying to send it... and then I get calls that even you wouldn't believe...& If they DO nut up and push the Red "Submit Form" button, it will usually send the thing to us (and also back to them at the "required email address" they furnished on the form, thats what the folks at the "fillable forms place" do) so, if it's performing it's functions, why it is having to complain?. What are we doing wrong?....and how can I fix it?...Will re-compiling it or saving it as a newer version of "FormsCentral" correct any of these problems ?
Ok, so that should keep you busy for a minute and we can start out with those problems...but the next thing is, how can I take advantage of YOUR re-direct & hosting services?, And will it get rid of the error messages, and the slowness, and the iOS incompatibilities ? (amazingly, the last iOS Reader version worked almost OK.. but the newest version doesnt seem to work with my form on my iphone4) If it will enable any version of the iOS to send my form correctly and more transparently, then it might be worth the money...$14.95 a MONTH you say. hmmmmm...Better be good.
Another problem is, that I really don't need 5000 forms a month submitted. I think its like 70-100 or less....Got any plans for that? Maybe I'm just not BIG ENOUGH to use Adobe's services, however in this case, I really don't care whose I do use as long as the product works most correctly for my customers as well as us. Like I said, If I'm doing the best I can, I won't change anything, and still use the other third party, If Adobe has a better solution, then i'm all for that as well. In the meantime, Thanks for any help you can provide on this...

Hi all,
I need help with a query. I use the trim function to get the first three characters of a string. How do I write my query so if a null value occurs in combination with my trim to say 'Null' in my results?
ThanksHi,
Thanks for the reply. What am I doing wrong?
SELECT trim(SUBSTR(AL1.user_data_text,1,3)),NVL
(AL1.user_data_text,'XX')
FROM Table
I want the XX to appear in the same column as the
trim.The main thing you're doing wrong is not formatting your code. The solution may become obvious if you do.
What you're saying is:
SELECT trim ( SUBSTR (AL1.user_data_text, 1, 3))
, NVL ( AL1.user_data_text, 'XX' )
FROM Tablewhich makes it clear that you're SELECTing two columns, when you only want to have one.
If you want that column to be exactly like the first column you're currently SELECTing, except that when that column is NULL you want it to be 'XX', then you have to apply NVL to that column, like this:
SELECT NVL ( trim ( SUBSTR (AL1.user_data_text, 1, 3))
, 'XX'
FROM Table -
I need help with resetting my ichat. When i try to login now it wont let me... it says "AOL Instant Messenger password" and then "iChat can't log in to ... because your login ID or password is incorrect. How do I reset this if I cant log in? When I try to press online the same thing pops up and I have no way of logging in or asking for help.
Hi,
iChat (it would help to know which version) can accept Apple IDs as valid AIM Screen Names.
However if you have iChat 5 or earlier you cannot use ones ending in @me.com or @icloud.com issued by iCloud. (they can be used in iChat 6 or Messages as these versions make a double login to AIM and Apple to allow the use of the password).
In addition if you are using an Apple ID for an AIM Screen Name the password still needs to keep to the 16 character limit that AIM has.
AN @mac.com name can be used on any version of iChat (Until the 30th June 2014)
As it does not need a double check with Apple you can use it to log in to the AIM Web pages
Login here with an AIM Name registered at AIM or and @mac.com name and see if you get any suspended account messages.
Sometimes account can be suspended. Usually because something has triggered the "Unusual Activity" item.
About a year ago many @mac.com users that travelled out of their own country found themselves suspended when they got home.
If the Name checks out of if an Apple ID the password in known to be 16 characters or Less then do this:-
In Lion upwards open a Finder Window and use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key.
Select the Library that appears in the menu list.
Navigate to Preferences.
(If you have version earlier than Lion the just navigate to ~/Library/Preferences (that's the Library in you Home - Little House icon - folder)
Fnd com.apple.ichat.aim.plist (even if you are using Messages)
Drag the file to the Trash and Restart the app.

Need help with Airport Express and so on.
Ok so my main problem before getting into what I need help with here is that our MacBooks and now my iPhone 6 plus isn't staying online. Keep getting booted off and then I either have to select the network again or it will eventually go back on. If anyone has a solution or so please feel free to answer that as well. I'm running on Roadrunner with a Netgear 600 wireless router and a motorola modem. Both of which I'll leave the link to below for a better look.
My Main Question: So I'm looking at a new wireless router mainly and possibly a new modem. I know Apple products are trustworthy but how good is the Airport Express and other Airport products. Also what is the Maximum speed and Maximum data speed for the cheapest express station and if anyone knows the speeds of the other devices it would be greatly appreciated.DSL Router to Netgear 5-port Switch and I used the switch to connect to Airport Extreme, TV, Blue-Ray DVD player and DirecTV Receiver.
The AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) is a router so it will do what you need.
You need to reconfigure your setup. Connect the WAN port of the AEBS to the DSL router. Then connect the Netgear switch to one of the LAN ports on the AEBS. The AEBS will properly share the connection.
Maybe you are looking for
