Play button displaying on all slides
When I view a published project in SCORM cloud or in Moodle the play button displays on every slide. This doesn't happen when i view the project locally.
Does anyone know how to stop this? I can't use auto play as this is not compatible with html5 output.
Please upgrade to 8.0.1.242: http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2014/10/a-free-update-to-adobe-captivate-8-is-now-availab le.html
I posted links in my latest blog post: Captivate 8.0.1 Install? Keep your Customisation! - Captivate blog

Photo album: Play button not functioning on slide show
In order to learn this album construction, I've begun by just copying the files from the demo (http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/demos/gallery_pe/dynamic/index.html), renaming the paths and throwing in some new images. BUT, the Play button doesn't work. It doesn't work on the demo either.
Is there a js function call that I'm missing? If so, where would the call and function be placed?
Here's my sample: http://www.lumina-media.com/gallerytest/wjgallery.html
All js, xml and css files are the same as on the demo (with exception of paths to images and thumbs).
Thanks in advance for any help.
NickThe play button works fine on your app, as well on the Spry demo.

Skin - Play button in center of first slide
On Captivate presentations created by by predecessor, a round "Play" button appeared in the center of the first slide as part of the applied skin. I'm using the same skin in Captivate 5, but do not get the play button on the first slide.
Is there a setting I am missing?Hi there
Try editing the preferences. Press Shift+F8. Then click Project > Start and End.
My guess is that Auto Play is enabled and needs to be DE-selected as shown below.
Cheers... Rick

Play button showing when publishing to responsive template
I'm having difficulties when previewing and publishing a responsive project.
Initially when I viewed the review/published project the first slide was blank and I had to use the TOC to navigate to the first page. I searched for a resolution and found a support document stating that auto play should be turned off when publishing a project in html5. I unchecked the auto play box in publish settings and the project now starts at the first slide. The issue now is that the play button displays throughout the course. Does anyone know how to remove this/change the settings? I've used Captivate 5.5 and 6 in the past and the play button has been hidden on click. Another issue is that the hand cursor doesn't appear when I hover over the button and it needs to be clicked twice before the project will start.
Here is an example...This is the first page but when I click the button it still appears on every slide of the project.
Please help.I see the Helvetica problem on the menu
The birth card looks nice in italic, but I am sure that's not what you had intended.
Can you see whether this particular font is already in the Font Book. There might be a clash of fonts here ... Font Book and FontExplorer. Restart you Mac and see if the problem persists. But save your site first.
There is no need to re-install iWeb. This is a font issue.
I am using Extensis Suitcase

Can't hide Flash Object Play Button in PowerPoint 2007
I am problem encountering an issue using the Shockwave Flash

I can't seem to hide the "PLAY >" button.

I am trying to create an initial slide that will look similar to a video played on Youtube. I would like the user to click on a Play Icon which triggers a transition to fade out and then start the presentation.
Any ideas how I would do this?Hi,
By default Captivate generated files plays automatically. There is an option to start playing the movie on demand.
Open your project in Captivate and follow Edit> Preferences > Project > Start and End > Uncheck the "Auto Play" check box. This will insert a play button and in the published file until user clicks on the play button movie does not start playing.
Now to trigger a transition on clicking the play button insert a blank slide with background similar to your presentation.Let the blank slide be the first slide. Reduce its slide time. In the Slide properties of the Blank slide change its transition. Now a transition effect gets created after clicking on the play Button.
Hope this helps !!

Responsive Project & On-Screen Play Button
Hello,
I'm starting to play around with the responsive projects with Captivate 8. I've produced a couple of sample projects (with different themes) but have an odd issue with the play button on the first slide:
The project plays well enough but that play button in the middle doesn't way to go away. I've searched the net and this forum with no luck. Anyone have any ideas. My phone is a HTC One.
Thanks much!Hi There,
While creating responsive project in Captivate 8, can you please check under Edit > Preferences > Project > Start and End > Auto Play is checked or unchecked.
If it is unchecked then play button will appear in the beginning of your project.
Regards,

I just completed a keynote presentation but it will not "Play". I can see the slides are in place, but all that comes to the screen when I hit the play arrow is the last, blank, slide. HELP!
At the risk of stating the obvious, is your first slide highlighted before you hit play? You mentioned the last blank slide shows up which could mean you have that last slide highlighted. If the last slide is highlighted and you hit play then that is the slide that will show up and if it's your last slide that is all you will see.
Make sense? -
How can I cause captions to be displayed in a slide show or when playing a DVD of an album?
I want to add captions to images and then cause them to be displayed along with the image when playing a slide show or DVD.
Do you using Premiere elements or Photoshop elements.
In Premiere elements , You can add title in each photo. Press " T" button displaying below the monitor window then edit the text in monitor display.
In Photoshop elemtns , Create a slide show. Select one side, then click the text in right side of the property panel and edit the text in monitor window, Repeat the same steps for all the slides. -
For the first time, I downloaded a podcast in the podcast app by clicking on the cloud icon. Now, every single play button for all of my podcast episodes is grayed out. Why can't I play any of my podcasts any more?
Greetings Heather,
After reading your post, it sounds like you are experiencing an error with the Podcasts app. You may want to consider restarting the device first, and then resetting if that does not work. This article provides detailed instructions for Restarting, and Reseting:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
How to restart
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
How to reset
You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities,

Hello Friends,
I've two iPod Nanos (4th gen - 8GB). I'm facing a severe problem with both of them. For both iPods, I tried to do this method Simultaneously press the top button + home (central) button. But of no use.
1. My first iPod is showing a white screen. I could not see anything. But I can listen to songs by blindly pressing the play button twice. The battery comes only for an hour.? How do I get the display and longer battery?
2. My second iPod is facing more severe problem. None of the buttons are working. When I connect it my PC it showing "CONNECTED- eject before disconnecting". But it is not ejecting with all the usual methods. When I manually and physically disconnect it from the PC the same "CONNECTED- eject before disconnecting" is still showing till the battery goes off. After that if i press any button it is showing low battery signal. And when i re-connect it to the PC the same process is repeating. When I tied to restore it to the factory settings I'm getting "Error" report.
(I'm using windows 7)
Friends, Please help me with the above problems. It will be a great help.
Thank You.
R.SAMALASounds like some hardware issues, meaning you'll want to take or send the iPods in for service or repairs. You can choose to have Apple do an out of warranty exchange for the prices indicated in the link below or find another third party service perhaps even local to your area.

End of slide - click play button
My presentations have audio narrations of varying lengths.
The beginning of the presentation indicates that the users need to
click play to advance from slide to slide, but it appears some
users are unsure when a slide has ended so they sit there for a
while before they get around to hitting the play button to advance
(I don't want to auto-play the presentation because I want them to
have more control over navigation and to prevent them from just
spacing out and losing track of where they are). I find it
annoyingly repetitive to say something like "Click play to
continue" at the end of each slide - and since many slide have
Captivate animations covering the whole screen, having a text
prompt display doesn't seem like it would work very well.
Has anyone experimented with either using some kind of tone
or sound to indicate the end of a slide, kind of like they do on
some language tapes to indicate the user needs to do something? Or
else is there an actionscript way to make the play button highlight
in an obvious way?
Any ideas are appreciated, thanks!

I inserted a HTML5 video in page, when I test it in a Browser, I see the poster image and controls, But when I click play button the video goes white, slider moves like its playing, but just white picture. There was no audio included in video. Please help
Without a link, it's anybody's guess.
It could be a problem the video rendering itself. Which software did you use?
Did you export to the 3 file types -- MP4, OGG and WEBM to support all browsers?
Does your web server support those 3 MIME file types?

Enabling a button only after all other boxes on the slide have been clicked
Hi,
I am using Captivate 5 but I am fairly new to it and have very little scripting experience so I think what I am looking for is possible but I am not sure how to go about it!
I have a slide with 10 click boxes which each link to a different slide with further information. Once the user has visited the additional slide they return to the original slide and can continue working through the click boxes to discover all of the information. This first slide also has a back and a next button to enable navigation through the rest of the project.
Ideally I do not want to force people to click these boxes in a particular order and I do not want to prevent them visiting the additional pages more than once. However I would like to set up the page so that the next button will only be enabled once all of the click boxes have been pressed. At the moment, i do not have anything to stop the user just continuing through the project without reading the additional information.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
MaryHi Lilybiri,
Thanks for your reply,
I think I would be able to use the second option of using buttons that became greyed out and then a next button appears on the slide once all of the pages have been visited. Would you be able to send me the template please?
I have a couple of other questions as well, I hope you don't mind! - Is it possible to do this using an image button rather than a transparent one or does this make it much more complicated? At the moment I have targets on the image which have a click box placed over them. It would be easy to change this to just the background image with the targets as image buttons but I am not sure I would be able to create the same style with the transparent button?
I would need to increase the number of variables to 10, if I follow the same naming conventions etc would this be a relatively simple process?
Finally I would not want the checkmarks to appear, how easy is it to make this change?
Sorry for all the questions but I really appreciate your help!
Mary
