Quiz questions not playing

I have published a file that has two quiz pools playing in it.  When I try to play the swf file the quizes don't show.  There are just blank screens where they should be.  I see that they have separate swf files.  What do I need to open to make this run correctly?

Hi there
How are you viewing? What version of Captivate are you using? I think this is a common issue if you have Flash Player 10 installed and you are using Captivate 3.

  • Audio on last slide after quiz questions not playing

    Captivate v5.5
    I have a project with a question pool and a series of random questions
    The random question slides are without audio.
    After finishing the question pool the project closes with the final slide which does have some audio - which runs fine when I test the slide.
    However when I test the whole project (F12) the audio on the last slide does not play.
    The audio on the slides prior to the random question slides plays without any problem.
    Any ideas please?
    Noel

    Anjaneai,
    Thanks for the suggestion. But changing the question setting to infinite attempts will just allow the user to retry each question over and over until they get it correct. I want to give them one chance to answer each question for the entire quiz. Then, if they don't pass, they can try the entire quiz again.
    I ended up finding a resolution, though. Based on one of the suggestions from this blog, I just shortened my slide time for each question to .5 sec (it was originally 3 sec). That seemed to do the trick!

  • Quiz Question not to be marked???

    Hello..
    I have created an elearning module with a few question slides... a couple of true/flash.   So we are not worried about recording the results... just that they finished.  So i do i tell it not to record the answers for the quizzes???
    Rich

    Hello...
    Thank you for the suggestion of using Complete/Incomplete, Slide views only.  That work great.  It is funny.. so when i tested the course..  I went through the whole course and answer all the questions correctly.. i got the score of "Successful 100%".... but when i went through the course and answer at least of the questions wrong.. i got the score of "Completed".
    Why is that???

  • Captivate 7 - quiz questions not showing tick/select boxes on ipad

    I'm having an issue when testing a course on ipad, on the question slides the radio buttons/tick boxes don't show. The module also doesn't show which answer you have selected. The course works fine across other browsers on desktops (both PC and MAC).
    I've checked the HTML5 tracker, and there are no reported errors. The questions are default captivate multiple choice question.
    Thanks,
    Chris.

    I have installed the 7.0.0, patch upgrade to 7.0.1.237, and instead of using the Master Slide I have uploaded a white background image. Within the properties tab>general, I have checked the project background option and uploaded my background image. Both Master slide objects on top and Use master slide background are unchecked.
    I have uploaded my module to Moodle 2.5, and tests have gone well on all desktops and all browsers. Only the last slide contains any interactivity, and has checkboxes and a submit button to confirm their attestation of completion. However, when tested on an iPad, this one slide that contains the check boxes and submit button appear white/or blank. Would anybody have insight into this issue?

  • Captivate 6 - Published - PDF does not play quiz questions

    I just published my captivate 6 presentation.  I am launching the .pdf file to view.  At the end, the quiz questions do not work.  I get a white screen and not my questions.  Any ideas?  Thanks

    Below is a screen shot of the published settings.  The whole training presentation plays as expected.  Then when it gets to the quiz questions I get a white screen and nothing happens. 
    After I publish, I go to the zip file and run the pdf version. 
    This is for someone to view the training outside of our LMS system.
    Here are the preferences ....

  • Flash player 9 not playing quiz questions

    Hi,
    I have just upgraded to Captivate 5 and started to create a new project. I published it as swf and htm files using flash player 9 output becuase my users have flash player 9 on their machines. When testing it I found that the module without a quiz in it worked fine, however I added a single multiple choice question and republished and now all I get is the background screen with the opertunity to open the TOC. The TOC opens BUT you cannot navigate to anywhere within the video. I have checked that Captivate has all the correct upgrades and I know that the htm/swf works OK on my machine and a couple of other peoples machines (who do NOT have captivate installed) but have version 10 of the flash player.
    Is there something obvious I am missing? Do I have to get everyone who is going to take the module including the quiz to upgrade to flash player 10? If I do it will be a pain but possible however I do not understand why the quiz will not work with flash player 9.
    Thanks
    Erika

    You seem to be experiencing the same problem as I am... see post http://forums.adobe.com/thread/779624
    Even when I select "publish to Flash 9" it will only work on those machines that have Flash 10.
    The Flash version that we have is 9.0.16
    Can you do me a favour? Go to www.whatismyflashversion.com
    I'm curious to know what exact version of Flash 9 you have. Is it possible that we just happen to have the one or two Flash 9 versions that don't work with Captivate 5?? Like, if I had 9.0.17 than I wouldn't be having this problem?

  • Quiz questions answered not considered

    Hello,
    I created a multiple choice quiz with a few questions, but as I preview it (in a browser and in the project preview section of Cp), or publish it and play it (same places), the answers that I enter are not being considered, every time I keep getting the "You did not answer this question completely" message when I review the quiz after getting the score. The correct question is selected properly on each slide, where I click on the circle to the left of the correct question.
    Thank you for your help with this,
    Manuel

    Manuel,
    Your quiz question slide in this project may be corrupted.  Try opening a new blank project and insert ONE multi-choice or True/false quiz question there and test the functionality.  Does a new blank project work properly?
    If so, delete the problem slide from your existing project and re-insert new ones to replace it.  Let us know if that works.
    One more thing.  DO NOT REMOVE any of the default question slide text captions from quiz slides.  Doing that can cause strange behaviours.

    Thank you now how do I get the songs on to the flash drive?
    Insert the flash drive into the other computer, and open it so it looks like a window.  Highlight the songs you want in his iTunes, and drag them into that window.
    That will cause them to copy onto the flash drive, and will not affect his library.
    If you normally run iTunes in full-screen mode, make it smaller so that you can do the drag.
    Then insert the flash drive into your computer.  Find your Automatically Add to iTunes folder (it is inside the iTunes media folder) and drag the songs into it.

  • Quiz questions will not retain format when question is changed.

    OK forum folks. I'm working on my first e-learning project and have ran into a problem with question formating. The instructions/help basically tell you to click here and click there. I can easily figure that out. The questions I seem to have are quite a bit deeper.
    I have a predefined template which is company approved. I have created master slides in the question pool for both a 4 item match and a 5 item match (I have found if I add a line to the 4 matching line quiz the line spacing and formatting changes). The placeholder questions are essentially non-questions.
    I duplicate the master slide in the question pool to maintain the original format (spacing, location, etc.).
    I change the placeholder questions on the duplicated slide to the real question (slide is still in the slide pool)
    The formatting (font, spacing, locations, etc.) change on the new (edited) questions and require reformatting.I have also tried copying the master question slide to the filmstrip and editing the copied slide questions in the filmstrip. I receive the same results.
    Is there are way I can create masters in the current format so I can use the approved templates, edit the questions and not have to reformat the slide after the questions have been changed?
    Also, is there a way to lock the formatting of the questions? If I want to add/delete a new question or line to the slide, it would be great to be able to not have to reformat the slide for the change.
    I look forward to your answers.
    Thank you.

    I am trying to deal with the same issue. The master slides are more about background elements and navigation buttons, but they do not seem to allow for the addition of quiz elements.
    I have come up with a workaround that I hope will work. What I am doing is creating a new project that becomes my quiz question layout library (Let's call this Project 2). In this project I add the various types of questions I will be using in my project (multiple choice with three choices, multiple choice with five, true/false, etc...). I get all the quiz elements in place for each type of question (the header, question, submit/clear buttons, review area, etc...).
    These slides serve as my Master slides for my actual project (Project 1). I can copy and paste the appropriate layout from Project 2 to Project 1 and then change the questions themselves.
    I am sure I will find out the downside of this soon enough...
    There is no doubt the creation of masters for quiz questions needs work, actually it needs just to exist!

  • Retake Quiz button not resetting questions

    Hi all
    I have a quiz with 7 questions, all single-answer questions.
    When the quiz results are displayed, the Retake Quiz button is displayed if they have failed the quiz.
    Upon clicking Retake Quiz, it takes me back to the start of the quiz, however, the previous answers given have not been reset and the question is greyed out.
    I've been reading various posts on here, indicating that similar things are happening, however I couldn't find the reason with the quiz settings that I have:
    Quiz is set to Answer All.
    Quiz is set to Allow Backward Movement.
    Quiz is set to allow 100 attempts on the quiz.
    Quiz is set to display Retake Button.
    Each quiz question is set to allow 1 attempt.
    I thought that by increasing the number of attempts allowed on each question that this would solve it, but this just allows me to keep trying on each question until I hit the right answer, and does not seem to solve the problem.
    I'm really not sure as to why, when using the Retake Quiz button, it is not resetting the quiz.
    Any help greatly appreciated!
    regards
    Loraine

    Hi again
    I have now changed the settings in the quiz as per Lilybiri's suggestion. I now have the following quiz settings in place:
    Quiz is set to Required - the user must take the quiz to continue.
    Quiz is set to Allow Backward Movement.
    Quiz is set to allow 100 attempts on the quiz.
    Quiz is set to display Retake Button.
    Each quiz question is set to allow 1 attempt.
    Captivate 4  - AS 2.
    After answering all the quiz questions, and failing, and clicking Retake Quiz button, some of the answers remain greyed out. It will not let you click Reset and will then automatically move on to the next question slide.
    There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it... sometimes the correct answer remains greyed out, and sometimes an incorrect answer remains greyed out. Sometimes when I click Retake Quiz none of the answers are greyed out, but then if i keep failing the quiz, the answers begin to appear greyed out. I have double-checked that i've set the number of attempts on the quiz to 100.
    I have also tried using the Back navigation button within a quiz, to go back and change my answer, but the answers remain greyed out, and pressing Reset makes no difference.
    It seems the only way I've managed to get a 'clean' retake at the quiz, is to exit from the e-learning, then go back in to it. But this is not going to be an acceptable method, when my company want to give learners the option to retake the quiz only if they fail, and not redo the whole package to get to the quiz at the end.

  • The answers questions not selectable in quiz slide for some users

    We have a SCORM Captivate training content published on our LMS (SAP Learning Solutions). Some users can't respond to any questions in the content.For these users, the answers are locked and are not selectable. Also, the Validate and Erase buttons didn't appear.
    The problem concerns about 10% of our users.
    This training contains both content slides and quiz slides.
    The content is published in SCORM 1.2 (SWF + HTML) with Adobe Captivate 5.5. We had the same problem for some users with the previous version of this training content published with Captivate 4.
    All users have the same settings:
    Flash Player 10.3.183.11
    Internet Explorer 6
    Microsoft Windows XP

    The most likely reason for this behaviour is that your 10% of users have entered the quiz and then thought they might jump back to the information slides to check the answer.  On doing so they have exited the quiz scope which immediately locks the quiz.
    Have you actually watched these problem users complete the quiz?  If you are able to do so, make sure that once they start the first question, they answer all quiz questions in turn without jumping to any other slides or leaving the quiz.  If my hunch is right, the person will be able to successfully complete the quiz.
    If the desire is to allow users to jump back to the content section to check information, place a scored button on the first or second slide of your project.  This extends the quiz scope and will mean that the user is still within the "quiz" no matter what slide they want to look at.

  • Videos will not play in safari either quicktime question mark of nothing

    Hi everyone,
    Initially I had an issue with Quicktime videos in Safari. - They would not play, all I got was a question mark infront of the video. Looking on these forums, appartently unchecking the misc. settings in MIME in QT preferences helps. Anoyingly I cannot actually uncheck those preferences, the mac won't let me. also, after reinstalling the flash update, and restarting etc, now all I get when I go to apple.com/trailers and try to play a video is the QT playback bar, but nothing else. It just stays there and does nothing. I am on broadband so speed is not an issue. how can I fix my issue? Thanks, Adam.

    Hello to everyone! Sorry if I seem to be straying off topic. There are several related threads in this forum, the Safari 3 beta forum and also the Quicktime forum.
    I have this problem as well - on my PowerBook G4, but not on my PowerMac G5... Specifically, in Safari on the Apple Special Event August 2007 page where we look for Steve to intro the new iMac, I see no button to push to display the stream. Just after the last word in the paragraph that the Play button should be under, there is a small active area that will bring up the stream on its web page (an invisible button), but when that happens, there is only the audio content. I have not tried the movie trailers, but these problems sound identical. So, this looks like several related symptoms - may be several problems or only one.
    Everything works normally in FireFox.
    Moving the HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins/QuickTime Plugin.webplugin file to the desktop fixes this problem in Safari, but induces several other problems.
    I have MacOSX 10.4.10 up to date, Quicktime 7.2.0, Safari 2.0.4 (419.3). DIVX web player 1.3.1 (p/o 6.6 package), Flash 9.0.47, etc... I have upgraded from many, many versions of Mac-OSX to the present.
    I recently installed i-Life '08 on both computers.
    I repaired permissions and sucecssfully verified my disk - no impact regarding this problem.
    I reinstalled Quicktime - no resolution.
    I am a knowledgable user - not expert, but quite knowledgable - I suspect that there is an internet plug-in conflict. Someone elsewhere in the discussion forum (Quicktime area, I think) also ventured that guess.
    Here are my internet plug-ins for the problem PowerBook G4:
    QuickTime Plugin.webplugin
    Quartz Composer.webplugin
    JavaPluginCocoa.bundle
    Java Applet.plugin
    RealPlayer Plugin.plugin
    npUpload.xpt
    iPhotoPhotocast.plugin
    VerifiedDownloadPlugin.plugin
    npdivx.xpt
    Windows Media Plugin
    Disabled Plug-Ins
    AdobePDFViewer.plugin
    flashplayer.xpt
    Flash Player.plugin
    QuickTime Plugin.plugin
    Java Applet Plugin Enabler
    ContentUploaderPlugin.plugin
    nsIQTScriptablePlugin.xpt
    DivXBrowserPlugin.plugin
    NP-PPC-Dir-Shockwave
    DRM Plugin.bundle
    Don't know why the order is like it is - I displayed my directory, selected all and copied and pasted to get this list - sorting by date or name didn't alter the order of this list (hmmm - something to ponder on a dull day!).
    I will post the plug-in list for my desktop that works correctly on Tuesday when I am back at the office.
    That is all I know on this issue. Hope someone sees something useful here to help get to the bottom of this.

  • Backwards Navigation When Reviewing Quiz Questions

    I have discovered from some students that they can cheat on my quiz. They take the quiz, review their answers and make note of the correct answers, then either drag the navigation slider backwards or click the Back button to return to the beginning of the quiz. This resets their original answers and allows them to retake the quiz with the answers they took from their notes.
    The quiz is set up to allow multiple attempts, but I assume they should be starting over with each attempt. My quiz questions are randomized from a test pool, so hopefully they do not see the same questions again and not in the same order. However, by cheating in this way, they can take the same questions in the same order.
    Is there anyway to limit backwards movement when reviewing the quiz?
    I have turned off backwards movement while they are taking the quiz, but this setting is turned off when they start reviewing the quiz.
    I am using Captivate 5.

    Thanks for the information. Yes I have set the quiz up to allow users to review their answers. Yes I assume they will take notes on the answers, but I have not enabled the Retake Quiz button. Once they get to the results page and choose to review their answers, I assumed (incorrectly) that their answers would be locked and they would not be able to change the answers or results for their attempt.
    My instructions tell them to relaunch the training, go through it again, and then take the quiz again. With the questions and answers being randomized, I was hoping that their notes (question 1 answer is B - question 2 answer is C - etc.) would not be very helpful to them and they would put effort into taking notes from the training to help them on the test instead.
    You said the following:
    "If a user clicks the Review Quiz button after any attempt, they will be unable to perform a new attempt on that quiz until they relaunch the lesson again.  Also, if the user jumps outside the Quiz Scope by navigating back to any slide before the first scored object or quiz question, they will be unable to reattempt the quiz until relaunch."
    I have tested this out, launching the training from the LMS, and it is not correct. I can go through the quiz, review my results, drag the slider or click the back button to the beginning of the quiz, and take the quiz again.
    I have disabled backwards movement during the quiz, but once you start reviewing a quiz, backwards movement is once again enabled via the slider or back button.
    I can hide the playbar and navigation controls, but when you get to the review, the navigation controls remain hidden and you cannot advance through the questions to see the results. I thought of adding a separate Forward button on the quiz question slides to allow the user to go forward as they review the slides, but you cannot add buttons or clickboxes to question slides.
    I could certainly turn off the review functionality, but I think it is valuable information to the student. I need to allow them to retake the quiz, as my boss has set a very high bar (100% passing score) on the quiz.
    Does anyone have any other ideas?
    By the way, after typing up this response, I started doing some playing around, and I figured out a fix. I turn off the navigation controls before the quiz and enable the Skip button on each question slide. With the navigation off, the user can answer the questions and click Submit. Then when reviewing the answers, they can navigate forward by clicking Skip. They can no longer navigate backwards through the quiz and training material.

  • Quiz questions in Captivate 7

    I'm fairly new to Captivate, but well-versed with other Adobe products.
    I'm working on quiz questions in Captivate 7, but maybe (hopefully?) I'm doing it all wrong. Outlined below:
    Need questions sprinkled throughout the module, we call them "Check Your Understanding." For now, true/false, multiple choice, etc. Will eventually include rollovers, etc.
    Currently, I have a multiple choice question. Slide begins with a header caption created with two shapes and a text caption with "Check Your Understanding." Would like that entire group to fly in from the left for seven seconds. When I preview the slide, half of the group is visible, but unmoving unless I hit Play. I thought it should play automatically?
    Second, when the question is submitted, even if the question is wrong, it just advances to the next slide. I need to require a correct answer before moving on OR the correct answer to show, and maybe a reason why. I can't get any of that to work.
    I don't have a need for the results/review slide to show at the end, but is that inhibiting the result from displaying on the slide itself?
    Thank you!

    Hello and welcome to the forum,
    Is this a default question slide or a custom question slide created using standard objects and advanced actions? If it is a default MCQ be careful not to delete objects that are normally available on the master slide for that question, you can make them invisible but deleting (with the exception of some buttons) could lead to weird results. You are using an effect I suppose for the group? Look at the timeline (or better post a screenshot of the timeline): for a default question slide there will be a pausing point (used by the two-step process of that question slide: http://blog.lilybiri.com/question-question-slides-in-captivate) and I suspect that this pause is interrupting your fly-in effect.
    Read the blog post about the behavior of question slides please. And it is a good practice not to have the playbar available for question slides. Another intuition tells me that by hitting Play you forced the playhead to pass over the pausing point, in the inactive part of the slide and that is why the playhead continues after submitting.
