Publishing EXE stand alone auto run for CD

Sent .EXE presentation to client. These were imported
powerpoint slides. However, client could only see first slide and
her machinge froze. Also it would reboot the machine sometimes. I
tested the CDs that I made and they only worked on PCs that had
Powerpoint installed. If I imported from Powerpoint why then do
people need that application to view the presentation? Is there
some way that I can get around this before I create another
shipment? Some field reps have no powerpoint to show the Captivate
movie.

Hello cc_booker,
Microsoft PowerPoint does not need to be installed to view
the .exe. The only requirements (as far as I am aware) for the .exe
to function correctly is to running Windows 95 or later and to have
one of the newer Flash Player plugins installed for Internet
Explorer. You can have your field reps download the Flash Player at
http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer.

  • How can I publish a stand-alone file with Captivate 8?

    I have just downloaded the new Captivate 8, but I an not sure how to publish a stand-alone, interactive file now.  In previous versions, one could publish an .exe file that didn't require a browser to work.  In the new version, there appears to be two options: HTML 5/SWF or video. The video option publishes a .mp4.  Is there still a way to publish a .exe?
    Thank you!

    Frankly I am a little tired of Adobe stonewalling on the issue of removing exe and dmg publication facility from Adobe Captivate 8.  What a load of flimsy excuses from Adobe!!!!  In Cap 7 I exported to exe and dog all the time and I truly miss this facility.  Why does Adobe remove a perfectly good facility when upgrading? 
    It all makes me believe that Captivate 8 was rushed out without much thought other than to get a 'not working correctly' responsive design bit built in.  Did they not think about customer research?
    And so, I've just paid over £300 to upgrade to a version of Captivate (8) I won't be using much.  This disgusts me and I am sure I am not alone. 
    And yes, why is Captivate not part of Creative Cloud?  I ask this question and I have asked it before.  Adobe will NEVER answer this question.
    Adobe.  Please try and LISTEN to what your customers are saying.

  • Looking for a stand alone belt clip for new ipod

    I am trying to find out if anyone knows where I can get a stand alone belt clip for my 5gen 60GB ipod. I purchased the invisibleSHIELD
    and just need a belt clip that does not include a whole ipod cover. Thanks in advance.

    I went to the apple store and tested the 20GB ipod clip on the display 60 video ipod and it didn't seem to lock in tight. The ipod seemed a little to big for clip holder. Luckly the store had a returned 40gb ipod clip and it fit perfectly and best of all I picked it up for less than 10 bucks..

  • Just purchased Lightroom (stand alone) and asks for a previous serial number. I don't have one only an students version of photoshop for which I can't find the serial number

    Just purchased Lightroom (stand alone) and asks for a previous serial number. I don't have one only an students version of photoshop for which I can't find the serial number

    If it is asking for a serial number for a previous version then you purchased an upgrade version rather than a standalone version.  You should be able to determine this based on the price you paid.  If you do not own an earlier version then you need to purchase a full version rather than an upgrade.  If you did purchase a full version but acquired an upgrade version then you will need to acquire the full version.

  • Stand Alone Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010

    I wish to use the stand alone product to edit Crystal Report .rpt files created with Visual Studio 2010
    Is CR 2011 stand alone.product the right tool?
    Using CR 2008, I receive a warning message if I open a .rpt created al VS 2010.
    Likewise, if I import the edited .rpt file to VS, another message pop ups saying that it will be updated to a newer version.
    Thank you in advance
    Edited by: Roberto Mirelman on Oct 21, 2011 2:59 PM

    You are correct.
    CR 2011 reports can be run in CR for VS 2010.
    Technically you can still use CR 2008 to edit your reports and shouldnt see any problems other than getting the prompt all the time.  I am not sure if using CR 2011 will cause prompting as well so you may want to try it our using the trial version first.

  • May I install a stand-alone Adapter engine for MI?

    I wonder if I can install a stand-alone Adapter engine (i.e. JAVA SE)  for MI?
    Points guaranteed. Thanks!

    Hi,
    no, that is not the usual way of handling data with MI.
    Well, MI exchanges data with the Middleware and the backend via SyncBO or Generic Sync. SyncBO is a data container that does the complete delta handling for example. The connection will be: XI receive data from an external system and stores that data in R/3. Then the SyncBO retrieves this data via GETLIST and GETDETAIL handlers and then the data comes down to the device with the next sync.
    BUT: the thing above is extremely drilled down - because of that it is only seen as a general answer. To discuss it more in depth, feel free to get in touch with me. The question I have in mind is till: what do you want to do with the XI connection.
    Regards,
    Oliver

  • Stand alone CSS editor for WDA

    im at a client who doesnt have a portal.
    So there is no access to the portal  theme editor.
    When using WDA direct to a NW 7.11 , the customer would like to brand the output.
    A few years back I recall some stand alone theme editor.
    Eclipse add on ?   May have been an SAP only internal tool. ?
    Is there a customer available version ?
    How best to go about CSS editing for WDA ?

  • Oracle PM stand alone against installables for WebSphere

    Hello,
    I am new to BPEL and would like to know, where the main advantages for integrating the process manager in WebSphere are. I would appreciate if somebody could give me some keywords.
    I used the stand alone for some tests and would like to use the installables for WebSphere.
    I tried the only manual I found for oracle, but the build.xml didn't work correctly. The jacl scripts where not executed because the wsadmin.bat was not executed.
    Did someone install the installables for WebSphere and could give me some hints to get this working. The configuration was ok and I use the Rational Application Developer with WebSphere 6.0.2.
    Thank you very much!
    Sven

    Make sure that the BPEL server configuration in the designer is not defined. That is, all the fields are blank.
    You can set that in Eclipse Window -> Preference -> BPEL

  • Is there a stand alone virus checker for MAC?

    Is there a Virus checker program that can run via a DVD or external to the hard drive? I would like to do a scan for any virus on the HD but do not want a resident one due to impeding speed of daily operation. The other alternative could  be a check from within OS Lion utilities if there is something there?
    As a rule, I do not open any unidentified attachment unless it's a friend and the file is not of a Macro nature.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    1. This comment applies to malicious software ("malware") that's installed unwittingly by the victim of a network attack. It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the victim's computer. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. If you have reason to suspect that you're the target of such an attack, you need expert help.
    If you find this comment too long or too technical, read only sections 5, 6, and 10.
    OS X now implements three layers of built-in protection specifically against malware, not counting runtime protections such as execute disable, sandboxing, system library randomization, and address space layout randomization that may also guard against other kinds of exploits.
    2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user, but internally Apple calls it "XProtect." The malware recognition database is automatically checked for updates once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
    The following caveats apply to XProtect:
    It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets.
    It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
    3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't necessarily been tested by Apple, but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. That may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below.)
    Gatekeeper doesn't depend on a database of known malware. It has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
    It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
    A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could simply ignore the consequences of distributing codesigned malware.
    An App Store developer could find a way to bypass Apple's oversight, or the oversight could fail due to human error.
    For the reasons given above, App Store products, and other applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed, are safer than others, but they can't be considered absolutely safe. "Sandboxed" applications may prompt for access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think before granting that access. OS X security is based on user input. Never click through any request for authorization without thinking.
    4. Starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background when you update the OS. It checks for, and removes, malware that may have evaded the other protections via a Java exploit (see below.) MRT also runs when you install or update the Apple-supplied Java runtime (but not the Oracle runtime.) Like XProtect, MRT is effective against known threats, but not against unknown ones. It notifies you if it finds malware, but otherwise there's no user interface to MRT.
    5. The built-in security features of OS X reduce the risk of malware attack, but they're not absolute protection. The first and best line of defense is always going to be your own intelligence. With the possible exception of Java exploits, all known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and the malware attacker. If you're smarter than he thinks you are, you'll win.
    That means, in practice, that you never use software that comes from an untrustworthy source, or that does something inherently untrustworthy. How do you know what is trustworthy?
    Any website that prompts you to install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one, is untrustworthy.
    A web operator who tells you that you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
    Pirated copies or "cracks" of commercial software, no matter where they come from, are unsafe.
    Software of any kind downloaded from a BitTorrent or from a Usenet binary newsgroup is unsafe.
    Software that purports to help you do something that's illegal or that infringes copyright, such as saving streamed audio or video for reuse without permission, is unsafe. All YouTube "downloaders" are in this category, though not all are necessarily harmful.
    Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be downloaded directly from the developer’s website. If it comes from any other source, it's unsafe.
    Even signed applications, no matter what the source, should not be trusted if they do something unexpected, such as asking for permission to access your contacts, your location, or the Internet for no obvious reason.
    6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was always a bad idea, and Java's developers have proven themselves incapable of implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style virus affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful.
    Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is obsolete and mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice. Forget about playing games or other non-essential uses of Java.
    Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it — not JavaScript — in your browsers.
    Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a task on a specific site, enable Java only for that site in Safari. Never enable Java for a public website that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, login-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a lock icon in the address bar with the abbreviation "https" when visiting a secure site.
    Follow the above guidelines, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can practically be. The rest of this comment concerns what you should not do to protect yourself from malware.
    7. Never install any commercial "anti-virus" or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good, if they do any good at all. Any database of known threats is always going to be out of date. Most of the danger is from unknown threats. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use one of the free anti-virus products in the Mac App Store — nothing else.
    Why shouldn't you use commercial "anti-virus" products?
    Their design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere.
    In order to meet that nonexistent threat, the software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
    By modifying the operating system, the software itself may create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
    8. An anti-malware product from the App Store, such as "ClamXav," doesn't have these drawbacks. That doesn't mean it's entirely safe. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
    An anti-virus app is not needed, and should not be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful only for detecting Windows malware. Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else.
    A Windows malware attachment in email is usually easy to recognize. The file name will often be targeted at people who aren't very bright; for example:
    ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥!!!!!!!H0TBABEZ4U!!!!!!!.AVI♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.exe
    Anti-virus software may be able to tell you which particular virus or trojan it is, but do you care? In practice, there's seldom a reason to use the software unless a network administrator requires you to do it.
    The ClamXav developer won't try to "upsell" you to a paid version of the product. Other developers may do that. Don't be upsold. For one thing, you should not pay to protect Windows users from the consequences of their choice of computing platform. For another, a paid upgrade from a free app will probably have the disadvantages mentioned in section 7.
    9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.
    10. As a Mac user you don't have to live in fear that your computer is going to be infected every time you install an application, read email, or visit a web page. But neither should you have the false idea that you will always be safe, no matter what you do. The greatest harm done by security software is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They may then feel safe enough to take risks from which the software doesn't protect them. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.

  • Stand alone Airport Express for Sound system

    Hi
    Can I have an Airport Express on it's own connected to a sound system.
    I have a normal (Sky) Wireless router at home and no other Aplle networking.
    I want to be able to airplay music to my sound system and was told that an Airport express would allow me to do this.
    But, My iphone will not find it, My ipad will not find it and I can not connect through the utility.  I have tried so many things but can not make it work.
    Will it ever work?  Can I do this?  How?  Please help...
    Cheers
    Richard

    Can I have an Airport Express on it's own connected to a sound system.
    Yes. The AirPort Express Base Station (AX) can be configured to provide its own wireless network for the purpose of iTunes streaming. It does NOT require an Internet connection.
    The issue you would have is that you would need to switch wireless network between the goal of streaming vs. Internet access.
    To resolve this, you would just need to reconfigure the AX to "join" the Sky's wireless network so you do both simultaneously. (ref: AirPort Utility > Select the AX > Manual Setup > AirPort > Wireless tab > Wireless Mode = Join a wireless network.)

  • Stand alone client for remote EJB corba error

    Regarding problem below, I've checked System env variables
    that weblogic server is using for CORBA classes:
    javax.rmi.CORBA.UtilClass=weblogic.iiop.UtilDelegateImpl
    org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass=weblogic.corba.orb.ORB
    org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass weblogic.corba.orb.ORB
    javax.rmi.CORBA.PortableRemoteObjectClass=weblogic.iiop.PortableRemoteObjectDelegateImpl
    But these are server classes and not found in wlclient.jar and wljmsclient.jar. What classes should be used for client? What needs to be set in order to get successful remote RMI/EJB call to weblogic server?
    Original post:
    I have a stand alone spring client for simple stateless session EJB deployed on weblogic 9.2. I'm using spring (jdk 1.5) to call this remote EJB and the only way I can succeed is to have full weblogic.jar in my bootstrap classpath. Otherwise I get corba error:
    CORBA BAD_PARAM 0 No; nested exception is:
    org.omg.CORBA.BAD_PARAM: vmcid: 0x0 minor code: 0 completed: No
    Interestingly, within same client I have JMS call to weblogic JMS and that fails if weblogic.jar is in boot classpath. Getting rid of weblogic.jar from boot classpath works if I have wlclient.jar and wljmsclient.jar in regular classpath (as per weblogic docs). I would think that for stand alone client all I would need is to weblogic client jars, why should I need to have full weblogic.jar?
    I can't get those work together with same classpath. I wonder if anybody has some pointers and/or advice. I was looking to set system parameters for corba for weblogic client that maybe could help:
    org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass
    org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass
    javax.rmi.CORBA.UtilClass
    javax.rmi.CORBA.StubClass
    javax.rmi.CORBA.PortableRemoteObjectClass
    But I can't find definitive answer.

    I'm stuck exactly with the same issue while trying to port my application from weblogic to jboss.
    I tried to specify different ORB implementations (JacORB, OpenORB) for jvm option org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass, but JBoss couldn't get them instantiated. Native Sun implementation which is used in JBoss by default and can be instantiated, apparently is not fully compatible with weblogic security module.
    So did you manage to find out the solution?
