Presentation converted from powerpoint not playing proper duration or recognising click boxes

Captivate 5.5 publishing a project coverted from a powerpoint, slides do not pause for the click box when published simply play for a second or two then move on?  This is a presentation created originally in Cap 5 It worked perfectly. opening it to add some content and previewing in 5.5 is fine . only when and however it is published the slides do not wait for a click or play for set durations. Rather a random problem has anyone else encountered this and solved it.

Hello and welcome to the forum,
That is a whole bunch of questions in a terminology that is totally different from the Captivate terminology. I was wondering if you even have tried at least one tutorial coming with Captivate to have some idea of the way it works? I'm sure you can achieve this in Captivate, am prepared to help but, sorry to sound a bit rude, this is a user forum, not a Captivate training place. You can meet other users here that will try to help you, like you could help others.
All can be done in Captivate, I try to suggest solutions:
For the 'slide list' you can use the Table of Contents, either in separate or in overlay mode, group the slides and collapse the slide groups; in that way the user will only see the group names and if you allow Enable navigation he can use this TOC for navigation
You can import Powerpoint slides, I do not understand why they should play in a box? Do all the timing in Powerpoint and when importing choose the option to play Automatically
You can insert slide video (there is a fine tutorial about it), and eventually resize it and add Text captions.
It is not clear where or what you want with the Text Captions, on individual slides or on top of imported PPT slides ... Of course you can add Text Captions, even rollover Captions/Images or whole slidelets with all possible combinations
You can publish to a SWF-file that will get an accompanying HTML + JS-file and upload those on a webserver, a LMS. Or you can publish to a multimeda pdf.
My apologies if my remarks did offfend you,
Lilybiri

  • I just completed a keynote presentation, but it will not "play"...I just get a blank slide (probably the final slide) when I hit the play button, even though I can see all the slides are in the list and will open as I click on them. HELP!

    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?

  • HT204291 music from ipad not playing on apple tv

        1.    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
        2.    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
        3.    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
        4.    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
        5.    Restart your router.

  • MOV files from Ipad not playing correctly in 2010 Windows PPT presentation

    I inserted .mov files taken from Ipad 2 into a.ppt on my work PC. I saved these files to the folder containing all of the videos I am showing in the ppt-- the same folder where the .ppt is located as well.  Then I inserted them as I do all videos (I create ppts often for work) -- and  the clips that are horizontal play fine but the vertical ones do not play correctly- audio and video not in sync.  any remedies?  (using ppt 2010, converted files to wmv, didn't work either).   I should add that when I viewed these files on my PC (by just clicking the file) they play fine, but they are not rotated correctly.  This must have been my fault when I took the videos.  However, when I insert them they are rotated correctly but just don't play right - looks like a Japanese movie.    please help!

  • Imported Powerpoint not playing all animation

    I've been testing a couple of Power Point files imported into Cp6. There is an  animated chart that just will not play the way it does in PPT.  Also cannot play back an embedded YouTube video, and in some cases the background audio doesn't play.  Aside from the animation issue, I could add some of the other elements from within Cp6, but my understanding was a lot of this should survive with the import.
    I'm using Captivate 6 and Powerpoint 2010 in Windows.

    Hello,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    Any possiblity of sharing that PPT (Animation Chart and Embedded Youtube) on [email protected]
    Thanks,
    Vikram

  • Converted from PowerPoint - animation has extra click on each slide

    I converted a PowerPoint 2003 presentation into Adobe Captivate 4.  All works well except that on the published Captivate version there is one extra click at the end of each slide.  For example, each slide may have 4 or 5 bullets, but after the last bullet point is displayed, you have to click twice before it moves onto the next slide.  Is there a way to get rid of the extra required click?  (The clicks are correct in PowerPoint).
    Thanks.

    I am having the same problem importing a PPT into Captivate 5.
    When I imported, I made sure that the 'Advance Automatically' option was checked, and when I look at the timeline for the slides, there are no items that would make the slide pause.
    When the slide finishes, it advances to the next slide, but immediately pauses. It won't continue until I press the Play button.
    This problem mainly happens on slides that contain audio. (I've embedded the audio in the PPT file and tried importing the audio after it's been imported in CP5 -- same result.) There are a few imported PPT files that don't have any audio associated with it and it advanced without issue.
    Help. This is driving me crazy!

  • Songs downloaded from itunes not playing on ipod

    Hi, maybe someone can help me. Recently I noticed that the songs I have downloaded from itunes are not playing on my ipod. They are working fine on my computer. As far as I know all my software is up to date and I even tried backing up my files and restoring my ipod, and the songs from itunes are still not playing. Is there something else I can do?

    Have you had a chance to look at these troubleshooting pages? They may be of some help:

  • Why is the rented movie from iTunes not playing?

    I have rented a movie from iTunes in my iPad, and it is not playing.  When I press on the movie title from the iPod > purchsed section, it gives me a black/blank screen for a second or two and then takes me back to the main desk-top screen.  Is there another program or step that I am missing? 

    Absolutely correct!  Wasn't even thinking about that.  LOL

  • HandBrake Converted videos do not play

    I cant get these videos to play on my Mac nor my PC. But they play just fine on my Zire 72. I am using the latest QT on both machines. Any tips?

    AVI Video and MP3 audio.
    AVI is a file container. It can contain a combination of hundreds or thousands of audio/video format/setting combinations. What specific settings were used in HandBrake. If you are using QT/iTunes to view on a Mac, then you need to find out which specific codecs were used and install the appropriate QT components. Some of these codecs have never been ported to the Mac. Others may only work in OS 9. Of those compatible with OS X, some are not in a universal binanry format. Since the files also do not play on a PC, I would normally begin to suspect your conversions setting are very non-standard or invalid.

  • Images not appearing on slide when converted from Powerpoint to Keynote

    My Pastor's Powerpoint slides converted nicely to Keynote except 2 pictures at the top of one slide. He saved just that slide as a separate ppt file and I could see the images in the thumbnail, but they're gone when it's opened in Keynote. I'm thinking a layering problem, but I'm new to iMac and Keynote. Any suggestions?

    Hi Lilybiri,
    I have (again) requested my IT dept to take a look at what is going on.
    If they cannt/wont help, then I may well take up Rick's very kind offer.
    The more I think about it, the more I believe my problem(s) stem from having to link up to Adobe when working on-line.
    It takes about 30 seconds from the time I open the initial Captivate start screen (attached) before any of the links become active.
    That strikes me as way too long and might be the cause of the problem.
    Any idea if this "link to Adobe" can to turned off? What do I need the link for anyway...day to day?
