Problems opening files in Captivate 6 after new install

I just got a new computer and I am frustrated because Captivate 6 is not functioning like it was on my old computer.
When I open a file it takes an extreme amount of time to open. It often gets stuck at 30% of opening.
Then when I try to go from slide to slide when I do get the presentation open it takes more than a minute to switch from slide to slide.
This does not seem normal. Any suggestions?

Here is how we resolved the problem.
The issue was that I had a corrupt user profile on my computer. We tested this by having the administrator log onto the computer under the administrator profile and the program worked fine.
So IT rebuilt my user profile and now the progam is working fine as well.
You might try logining on as a different user and see if this is true for your computer. If not there may be a couple of options you can try. Let me know if it does not work.

Restore files from time machine after new install

In my office one of my iMac's suffered a complete system crash. I am reinstalling OS X Lion as I write this post. The iMac was backed up to an external hard drive using time machine. After the new install of Lion how do I grab my user files from the machine backup?
I appreciate in advance your help.

When you complete the installation and boot into the Setup Assistant use the opportunity to restore from a TM backup which will appear in the Assistant. Just have the backup drive connected. You can then restore from the most recent backups of your Home folder, third-party applications and support files, and system preferences.
Restore will take a while, but when done just restart.

I was able to isolate the problem late yesterday.
When I logged in as a different user on the same computer I found that Captivate worked just like it should.
Therefore the conculusion was that I have a corrupt user profile.
The IT department is going to rebuild my user profile and I should be back in business and creating compelling e-learning later today.
Thank you very much for your follow-up on the posting!
Have a Super-fantastic Day!

Having problem opening files with gradients in CS2

When I try to open an illustrator 9 file from CS2, I get "An unknown error has occurred." message. I believe this may be a CS2 problem because when I checked further, I discovered that only AI 9 files where the gradient feature was used were affected. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi Sjmitc, I followed Barbara's instructions about only about 24 hours ago and since then my files have been opening perfectly. I tried it again before replying to you and they are still opening fine.
I did have to go through my files a couple of times to find all the Elements preferences, but the solution is working fine so far. I will let you know if I have any further problems. It is maddening when it happens, so I hope you can fix yours.
Best of Luck

Henwen, Is this solution still working for you? I tried this same solution on mine a few days ago and had no luck. However, it actually let me open files this afternoon then when I went back in later today, it was doing the disappearing act again.

Problem opening files with Mac OS Mavericks and Elements

I have recently installed Mac OS 10.9.x Mavericks. Since this I have had problems opening files in Elements 11. I upgraded to Elements 12, blindly hoping the problem would fix itself, however it hasn't.   When I try to open a file the Finder window pops up then disappears immediately. Occasionally it will stay open until I scroll down but then closes.   I keep the files on an external drive but the drive is working with all other applications, so I don't think it is that. If anyone has had a similar problem and has any ideas I would be grateful as the program is unusable for now. Thanks very much in anticipation

I'm using OS 10.6.8 and Mail 4.5. When I receive mails with attachments which are visible the save button doesn't work. Some contacts have problems opening files sent by me using Mail too. This was never a problem on pre-Intel. A real Mac **** up !

I'm using OS 10.6.8 and Mail 4.5. When I receive mails with attachments which are visible the save button doesn't work. And some contacts occasionally have problems opening files sent by me using Mail too. This was never a problem on pre-Intel Mac. A real Mac **** up ! Any ideas ?

Can you drag and drop the attachments visible in the email to the Desktop OK or does that fail ?
Re the sending: Are these recipients on Mac's or PC's as the file type could be an issue, if on Mac's then try setting the Mail Preferences Composing setting to Plain Text not Rich Text and see if that improves things.

I am running windows 8, 64 bit, & suddenly have a problem opening files, I have to keep re-booting

I am running windows 8, 64 bit, & suddenly have a problem opening files, I have to keep re-booting - is there anything in preferences I can change?

The clipboard error means that the OS or some other application messed up when placing data on the clipboard.
The reboot to open files means that something has gone wrong at the OS level (otherwise just relaunching Photoshop would work). We've heard from a few other users with that problem, but never heard back from them what was wrong with their system to cause that behavior. My guess is a bad driver or malware.

ZENworks 11 problem opening files

we have a problem opening files that are located in folders with spaces in their names.
for example; I am trying to open an excel file named test.xlsx located in "S:\Test Folder\Excel Files"
I have created a bundle that opens the text.xlsx... our older version of ZEN had no issues with this but with ZEN 11 I get the following errors:
1. the file Test cannot be found
2. the file Folder\Excel cannot be found
3. the file Files\test cannot be found
Seems like it breaks it down everytime it sees a space in the name... anyone know the cure for this?
Thanks.

Jeffb6000,
Jeff, this forum is for the product ZENworks Package Management, i.e.,
Adminstudio, sounds like you have a general query about bundles, and
there's a forum for that. If you want to post in the
novell.support.zenworks.configuration-management.11.bundles.windows
forum, someone can help - do make sure you say exactly how you are
specifying the path, and how the action is being run (if it's not run
as the logged-in user, you won't see the mapped drives for example)

How to restore files from Time Machine after Clean Install of Mavericks

How to restore files from Time Machine after Clean Install of Mavericks. I know the data is there but seems unaccessable because I may have changed the Computer or Owner name. Is there any way to fix that now?

Hi Linc,
my back-up data is managed by Time Machine; the actual data is on a second internal Hard Drive with a capacity of 1TB - not partitioned. I am using Time Machine and have access to all data backed up since Mavericks Clean Install but not the data prior to this date.
When I open the 1TB drive in Finder I can see a folder "Backups.backupdb/Sigi's Mac Pro/ followed by many folders of backup dates going back to 2010-09-20-103441 and up to 2014-02-07-142414 all followed with folder Macintosh HD. February 7th 2014 was the date of the clean install.
These Backups are followed by backup date folder 2014-02-08-075554 with a subfolder of MacPro-320GB (this is the name I assigned to my Boot Drive during formatting; I suspect I should have assigned the same name as before ie. Macintosh HD) and 2014-02-11 with a subfolder Macintosh HD, these are the ones I get access to by way of Time Machine > Restore.
Weird thing is on Febr 11 when I relised my possible mistake and renamed the Bootdrive back to what it was initially ie. Macintosh HD despite this I have access to all backup data since the Clean Install in both folders MacPro-320GB as well as Macintosh HD but not to any data prior to the Clean Install.
Is there something that Time Machine knows and prevents access or is it simply a matter of renaming the subfolder 2014-02-08-07554/MacPro-320GB to ........./Macintosh HD?
I like to restore selectively and not everything - It was hard work reinstalling apps that were supposed to be the troublemakers (ref my discussion on Maverick problems) but I now need to get onto data specific to some of these apps as well as other data I may have missed. Long story? Yes and sorry.

I'm trying to open files which are telling me to instal Adobe Reader. Which I did but the agreement which needs to be ticked off so this reader can open doesn't come up. Please could you be of some assistance.

I'm trying to open files which are telling me to instal Adobe Reader. Which I did but the agreement which needs to be ticked off so this reader can open doesn't come up. Please could you be of some assistance.

Select one of the files, Choose GetInfo from the Finder's File menu, look for the field named "Open With", and choose Preview from the adjacent menu. Accept that ALL such files will Open with Preview, and your major problems should be solved.
Occasionally, a particularly complex .pdf file or one that needs to be modified and re-written will not work quite right with Preview, but such issues are rare.

Problems opening files via 'File - Open/cmd-O' in Photoshop CC 2014 after Yosemite installation

I upgraded to Yosemite on Friday and shortly after, I noticed that when attempting to open multiple files, after I've opened a few files (it's not a set amount, sometimes happens on the 3rd file, sometimes on the 6th etc) I get the error message 'could not complete your request because of a program error' - the only way out of this is to quit Photoshop and restart which is obviously very frustrating and time consuming!
I spent some time on live chat to Adobe yesterday and we deleted settings, preferences, uninstalled, reinstalled, moved Colour settings folder to desktop but nothing worked. I have a call scheduled with Adobe to go through lots more tests at the end of the week as I've been advised this isn't a global issue but I thought I'd post on here in the meantime to see if anybody had any thoughts as to what could be causing this. After speaking to Adobe, I have since realised that even after getting this error message, I can still drag files to the PS icon and open them that way - I have just opened 20 files this way with no error message, it's just when I used the File-open/cmd O method (my usual way of working) to open files that is happens.
It was all fine before installing Yosemite and I am on the very latest CC 2014 version (this problem does not happen in the CC version incidentally, only the 2014 version - so I'm using that as a workaround for now).
I also had issues opening files in Illustrator on Friday, I was unable to open files using file - open/cmd O (nothing happened after I clicked it, but I got no error message), again, I had to drag the file to the AI icon in the dock to open it but that seems to be ok now even though I haven't changed anything with the Illustrator application - just thought I'd mention it incase it was related!
If anybody can help, I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

Glad it's not just me!
Interestingly, when I spoke with Apple, I tried it in a new user account and the problem went away. Apple said to speak to Adobe which I have done and after deleting settings/prefs again the problem remained. Adobe say as it's fine in a new account then it's an Apple issue not Adobe.
I did find a workaround for now though, when using file - open, set it to list view instead of column view - this fixed my problem but sadly I'm used to working in column view so it's not ideal!
I also got the same error message when trying to replace a set of brushes yesterday too. I need to go back to Apple now but just need to schedule some time to sit and troubleshoot!

IPhoto won't open after new install and restore of back-up

Hi guys
My hard drive just died (for the second time in 6 months!) so I have just gotten the computer back with a new drive. I did a new install of Tiger from my original install CDs, did the download thing to get all the updates, and ran a "restore" from my external drive using iBackup (http://www.grapefruit.ch/iBackup//index.html) to restore all my previous system settings, documents, etc. So far this seems to have worked well, a couple of 3rd party applications didn't re-install - specifically Neo Office and WiFind - but I was able to manually install those and everything seems to be working fine.
Except iPhoto. It won't open. When I click the dock icon it bounces once and does nothing. No little arrow under it or anything. Nothing at all happens when I click the icon in Finder (in the Applications folder). When I searched it in spotlight it told me there was a file called iphoto.crash.log, so I went and had a look at that hoping it would tell me the problem, but I don't understand it. I'm not particularly good at the behind the scenes stuff with computers.
Wondering what I should do now - if someone can perhaps interpret the log file and find the issue if that would help, or if I should uninstall and re-install iPhoto by itself (and if so, how?), or if there is something else that may be causing the issue. I noticed there are a few files relating to it when I search with spotlight but I don't know which of them might be relevant. I could post a screenshot if that is allowed, or post the log file if it would help?
Thanks in advance for any advice or help!
Regards,
Chloë

400 Updates???
Did you Repair Permissions before & after each one?
The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, or things don't load/run, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates again, or even do an A&I if you have enough free disk space.

Repair Permissions before & after re-install, then reboot again each time.
If all the above do not resolve the problem, then it's time for an Archive & Install, which gives you a new OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space...

I only use Software Update to see what is needed, then get them for real via...

That way I can wait a week or so, check the forums for potential problems, and get Permissions & such in order before installing.

Weird InDesign CC problems - opening file/importing pics

I just upgraded to the newest InDesign CC (9.1) - now when I go to open a file from one of my external drives (I tried opening files from two different usb external drives), if I wait more than about 2 seconds, it's as though the operation cancels itself and the open file box goes away. The same thing happens if I try to import a photo into a photo box. -command e-, the import photo box comes up, then a couple seconds later, it disappears.
InDesign doesn't crash, or crap out or anything.
Here's the weird thing. If I go fast enough clicking on a file to open or photo to import, it works. But only if I do it within 2 seconds?!?!?!
The even weirder part.... if I try importing the same way but I only do it from my local system hd, no problem.... the box will stay open as long as I want until I click the file I want.
This is the strangest thing I've ever encountered in InDesign!!!!!
Can anyone offer some insight to this, besides the fact that I have Gremlins in my InDesign?!?!?!
Thanks,
Blair

I posted this on the forum page thread:
To "populate each window" : after hitting the "place" command keys (cmd+d) on the mac, the window that opens is EMPTY of files and folders. The delay is several minutes now, also on every subsequent window down the path to the actual file that I want to import. Meanwhile, these files are immediately visible in the finder windows when clicking on the desktop. My OX is Yosemite 10.10.1. This lag happens before getting to the stage of seeing the miniature in the mouse pointer.
Is this a known issue in the new CC inDesign 2014? Is Adobe aware of it?
