Problems with using Captivate 7 behind Proxy

Since I've upgraded to Adobe Captivate 7, I have issues while using Captivate. The program start takes very long and during working the program window sometimes freezes and then I have to wait about 15 Seconds before Captivate allows continuing my work, sometimes Captivate crashes completely. These issues are gone, when I'm disabling my network connection. I'm using Captivate inside a corporate network and behind firewall and proxy.
I tested it also with a direct internet connection, no problems. So I'm missing some adresses which are filtered by the proxy. Does a list with necessary connections for Adobe Captivate 7 exist?

It is well known that Captivate authors should ONLY work on project files that are stored and accessed from the computer's own hard drive.  If you are pulling down project files from your network LAN or saving back up to the LAN using Captivate then you will have these issues.  The use of virtual My Documents folders and roaming user profiles can also play havoc with Captivate's stability.
You need to set up working folders on your C drive for your Captivate projects.  You'll need one for your Captivate Project Cache, one for your Captivate Publish folder, one for your Video Demo Recording Working Folder, and one for your Layouts and Themes.  All should be on your own hard drive, not the LAN or (if your IT dept uses virtualization or roaming user profiles) in your My Documents folder.
Once your folders are created you can set these as the Default Locations in Preferences > General Settings > Default Locations and Preferences > Recording > Video Demo etc.
Since it appears as if you have been working over the network up to this point, you may also find that you need to kill your Preferences folder as well after setting up the local default locations.  Otherwise Captivate will continue to look for the network addresses.

  • Naming Buttons - Problem with using Captivate 7 Buttons to Open URL or File

    After spending too much time troubleshooting a button problem, I discovered the importance of naming each item in a Captivate project.
    For some reason I have yet to figure out, publishing to SWF from Captivate causes buttons to function arbitrarily. In my case, I had eight buttons pointing to external URLs, three that worked and five that didn't. All of the buttons pointed to the same external website, only to different PDFs hosted on that site. Each button was named with the default "Button_X" convention as set by Captivate. After trying lots of different settings adjustments, On Enter and On Exit actions, and Play/Pause timings, I did what I should've done from the beginning; changed the names of the buttons.
    Why this worked? I don't know. I've seen hints on other discussions as to SWFs not working well when there are a lot of unnamed or default-named items. If there's some logic to this I would be happy to know it, but for a default setting to cause such a bizarre problem is beyond my comprehension. I could understand if I had named the buttons incorrectly, but I didn't do anything to them; I left them with the names created by default.
    Hopefully this helps someone else resolve a similar issue and, if anything, encourages everyone to follow best practices and use a clear file naming conventions for all projects.

  • I am going to buy unlocked iphone 5.. i will be going to india nxt months and will stay there for a while... so my question is will i get warrenty in india.. and will there be any problem with using indian sims..?? thnx for the help..

    The warranty for the iPhone is not and has never been International.
    Warranty and support are ONLY valid in the country of origin.  The only exception is the EU where the entire EU is treated as one country.
    If the device will be used in India, buy it in India.
    An unlocked iPhone will work on any supported GSM carrier world wide.  The LTE portion of a US purchased, unlocked iPhone is unlikely to work outside North America as it does not support the appropriate bands used in other countries.

  • I have two Iphones with different email addresses sharing one Apple ID. Will that cause problems with using messaging and FaceTime?

    I have two Iphones 5 with different email addresses sharing one Apple ID account.Both are using IOS 8.
    I would like to set up a new Apple Id for one of the phones and remove it from the old account.
    If I do that, can I move all of the purchased apps and songs to the new Apple account?
    Also, will sharing one Apple ID account with two devices cause problems with using messaging and FaceTime?

    Sharing an iCloud account between two devices can be done without causing issues with iMessage and FaceTime, just go into Settings for each of these functions and designate separate points of contact (i.e. phone number only, or phone number and unique email address).  While that works, you'll then face the problem where a phone call to one iPhone will ring both if on the same Wi-Fi network -- but again, that can be avoided by changing each phone's settings.
    Rather than do all that, don't fight it -- use separate IDs for iCloud.  You can still use a common ID for iTunes purchases (the ID for purchases and iCloud do not have to be the same) or you can use Family Sharing to share purchases from a primary Apple account.

  • Problem with use of COM+ Transaction and DB Transaction

    Problem with use of COM+ Transaction and DB Transaction
    We build a Web site that use sometime COM+ Transaction and sometime DB
    Transaction. If we use a COM+ Transaction and a few seconds later we try to use
    a Database Transaction (OracleConnection.BeginTransaction), we get the error
    Connection is already part of a local or a distributed transaction
    Of course the error does not produce everytime; it takes some try before we get
    the problem. And of course, if i use pooling=false on the connection string,
    the problem does not appear.
    i run the Web page
    and push the COM+ Transaction and DB Transaction one after the other for some
    times and the problem should appear.
    Environment: Windows server 2003, .Net Framework 1.1, ODP.Net 9.2.0.401,
    Database Server 9.2.0.4

    Is this happening at runtime or at buildtime? You'll need to provide more info on what you are actually doing that's causing the problem.

  • Problems with use cases in JDeveloper 11.1.1.1.0

    Use cases made with JDeveloper 11.1.1.0.2 can not be used and edited in JDeveloper 11.1.1.1.0.
    Same problems with Use Case Diagrams.
    And it seems to be impossible to create new use cases in JDeveloper 11.1.1.1.0.
    What are the differences between 11.1.1.0.2 and 11.1.1.1.0 if you look at use cases??

    In JDeveloper 11.1.1.0.2 each use case has one file with the folllowing name: *.xhtml_usc.
    In JDeveloper 11.1.1.1.0 each use case has two files with a names like *.xhtml_usc and *.uml_usc (after standard migration with JDeveloper). I can still edit the *.xhtml_usc files, but I have no idea what to do with the *.uml_usc files. I can only open a Property-editor, but the properties I see have no relation with the text I used in my original use cases . New use cases only have a *.uml_usc file and a Property-editor. In javadoc the new use case does not appear.
    My question is: why do I have two different use case files in JDeveloper 11.1.1.0 and how can I use the Property editor??

  • AxWindowsMediaPlayer problem with using subtitle sami.file in winform

    Hello every body
    I have a problem with using sami caption in axWindowsMediaPlayer;
    how can I use it?
    I used
    axWindowsMediaPlayer1.closedCaption.SAMIFileName="FileNameAddress";
    and
    axWindowsMediaPlayer1.ShowPropertyPages();//and select sami file
    but in both ways the subtitle is not shown in my axWindowsMediaPlayer1 control;
    please help me for solving this problem

    Hi ,
    As i know the Synchronized Accessible Media Interchange (SAMI) file must use an .smi or .sami file name extension.
    set the smi-file direclty like following
    AxWindowsMediaPlayer.closedCaption.SAMIFileName = "subtitles.smi";
    Please also refer here
    for more details.
    Follow the steps below for your Windows Media Player to display captions and subtitles.

  • I am having problem with using the Basic brush definition

    I am having problem with using the Basic brush definition. When I try to click on it will not allow me to use it and will automatically use the 5 pt. oval brush definition. The only way I can use the basic brush is after I have already drawn something and then I have to click on the stroke and then press basic. This is incredibly annoying and if anyone could help I would greatly appreciate it. (I have Adobe CS6)

    for whatever reason, the basic 'brush' you see in the brushes palette effectively means removing any brush from a path. to draw with the brush tool you need a brush defined. in your case the last one selected being the 5 pt oval one.

    Basic is not a brush, only a starting point for you to make a brush. Load the real brush you want before beginning to draw.

  • In FF4.0.1 problem with using HTML creator in WebCT. WHY? Not a problem in FF4.0.0

    In FF4.0.1 problem with using HTML creator in WebCT. WHY? Not a problem in FF4.0.0

    Hi Shane,
    I passed through all the described problems in the list, and after doing several tests the error that you described is always present if the "jpcsclite_en_US.properties" is not present in the same place of the "jpcsclite.properties". I really don't know the reason, I just copied and pasted the same file, renamed the copy and the error was gone... though both of them include the line where the .dll is found!
    That's how it worked for me, but if anybody knows how it works without that dirty trick, it would be good.
    Regards,
    Leandro
    PS: Just in case that somebody is using the version JCSDK3.0, I did not find the .dll in that version, but in the JCSDK2.2.2 *(:-S)*

  • I have a problem with using MacBook Pro as wifi router when connected to ethernet

    I have a problem with using MacBook Pro as wifi router when connected to ethernet. The Airport icon changes to show a laptop inside, my iPad shows connected (I think) but Safari will not operate. I tried pinging my iPad, it seems to see the iPad, but no connection to Safari or to other apps such as Good on the iPad. I have read many posting and tried repeatedly via Sharing in Systems Preferences, but no luck. Suggestions to fix, or is this a Lion problem?

    Usually this is a problem related to the domain name server address. If you open Network preferences, select your Ethernet port then click on the Advanced button then on the DNS tab. You will likely see an entry like 10.0.1.1 already listed. Click on the Add [-] button and enter 208.67.222.222 then click on the OK button and then on the Apply button.  See if this helps.
    if it does not help then repeat the above but with the Airport port.

  • After installing Snow Leopard problems with using any of my Helvetica fonts

    I've never really have a problem with any of apple's products until now.
    After installing Snow Leopard I've found problems with using any of my Helvetica fonts,
    which is a BIG problem if you work in DTP or print. You CAN'T remove the system version of Helvetica, and replace it with your own anymore.
    Also Flash CS4 seems to be a dead duck, as after about 5-6 seconds of loading the program it crashes with a "KERNPROTECTIONFAILURE".
    <title edited by host>

    Thanks Tom but the original post title was "Work in DTP, don't install snow leopard", but of course apple were unhappy with the title. I know the issue/problem has been discussed for months, the real problem is that it shouldn't be a problem which everyone has to find work arounds for.
    After 4 days of playing about, I've finally got flash CS4 working and Quarkxpress was also a big problem for a few months. Printer description (PPD) files which snow leopard doesn't like, but worked in tiger & leopard.....means I can't use my two A3 inkjets for proofing anymore.
    I'm just disappointed by snow leopard

    Not all plugins support 64 bit and if not then you need to start Firefox in 32 bit mode to use that plugin.
