Looking for Adobe Captivate developer

I am searching for someone to help with Adobe Captivate. I work for a not-for-profit firm that works to improve criminal justice systems throughout the United States. We have been contracted by the federal government to develop a series of online courses to teach professionals in the criminal justice systems about what the research says are the most effective approaches to reducing recidivism. I have been trying to identify how to translate our ideas into a functioning and interactive online course, and it seems like there is at least a two step process after we develop the actual learning content -- authoring the course and then uploading and hosting the course. We are the at the authoring stage and it looked like Captivate might be a good way to go. Would you by any chance have a few minutes to talk about the process with me and lend me some of your experience with this? We may end up needing someone to do the actual authoring if that is something you can do and are interested in.
Thanks either way for your attention to this message.
All the best,
Franklin Cruz

How to get a quiz developed with a timer in Adobe captivate 8

I want to develop a quiz with 10 questions. So those who answer max correct answers with less time should be announced as winner
Current version 8 doesn’t show the option to publish file into exe.
Also I have few issues with the current package I prepared.
Not sure how to get the timer
enabled in the package.
Need to add logo on all slides
3. How to add hyperlink
for Adobe Registration.
Some experts please help me

Well, first, I believe if you update CP8 to the latest version:
Adobe Captivate Help | Adobe Captivate 8 patch
Then the .exe option is restored to Captivate.
But that probably won't help your other request.
For Captivate itself to know if someone's score is best, it has to know what all the other users' scores are.
How will it find that out? (especially as an .exe which is going to likely have even a harder time getting info from the web)
The best way to do what you want is to use an LMS with that 'leaderboard' feature (i.e ExpertusOne)...so it can evaluate everyone's recorded scores and show the best.
And even that would probably need a hack as I *assume* it basis 'best' on the score, not on the time.
So even if you could do a timer in Captivate, it has no way of knowing other users' scores nor a way to evaluate which is 'best' even if it did.
(you might be able to work that all in with extensive JS hacking?)
Fortunately, the logo is pretty easy - put the logo image on the master slide(s) you use in the piece.
What sort of Adobe Registration do you mean?

Intelligent Print Widget not compatible with Adobe Captivate 7?

HI,
I took a file I developed with CP6 that has the Intelligent Print Widget on the Quiz Results pages into CP7. When I publish the file, I don't see the print widget. I even ensured the swf file is there in the zipped package but still no print button. What happened?
Please help!

My colleague got it from the site below:
http://www.cpguru.com/intelligent-print-widget-for-adobe-captivate/
I contacted them to get the updated version. I hope it helps.

Export multiple entries in CSV format - Adobe Captivate Results Analyzer

I'm currently developing and testing a quiz in Captivate 8, which I have set up with the assistance of my IT colleagues to report to an internal server.
All appears to be working correctly with regard to capturing the data. I can access and read the data using Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer 1.5.
I note that I can see the individual responses and I can drill down to see the details of the interactions - interaction type, correct answer, student answer etc.
My issue is that it seems that you can't batch export this detailed information for multiple participants when I use the 'Export to CSV' function. It appears to only allow you to export the data for each individual that you have drilled down into. Given that I have several hundred participants that isn't going to work.
Can someone tell me if this is a limitation of Adobe Captivate Results Analyzer or is there a way to do this using this tool?
Thanks

Hi there, I have similar issue that I have explained in this post. Any ideas please?
Thank you

Quiz in Adobe captivate???Please help???

I am trying to create a 5 question quiz for customers at a tradeshow. customers walk by the computer, enter their name, answer the quiz, submits it. once it is submitted, it displays the screen where a new customer has to enter his name again and start answering quiz...same process..
in the end i should be able to pull out a report, correct answers by name....
is it possible in adobe captivate????????

Yes and no. YOu can create a form slide that allows users to enter information and answer quiz questions. Their entered details and scores for questions can be captured using variables. However, Captivate is more designed for submitting this kind of information to a Learning Management System.
In order to get what you want for your tradeshow kiosk, you would need to have a custom database solution of some kind that received the information from your course and entered each different person's details and scores as records. Captivate doesn't do this for you. You'll need the services of a web developer, ActionScript 3, or JavaScript developer (and possibly all of them).

We are looking for a software which converts SWF to MP4, we found many software which does the job but issue is file size is not optimize. We found Adobe captivate 6 which gives optimum quality with good output but thing is we do not have batch process i

Hi
We are looking for a software which converts SWF to MP4, we found many software which does the job but issue is file size is not optimize.
We found Adobe captivate 6 which gives optimum quality with good output but thing is we do not have batch process in captivate 6. so we request you to create a plugin or give a best option which have batch render quality and optimize in file size,

Captivate is e-learning development software not a dedicated video convertor, you are better off trying something like Adobe Media Encoder or Super.

Adobe Support

Hi Vikram,
I am using a Mac. Everything was developed in Captivate 7 (we upgraded specifically due to the need for all quiz types to be exported to html5). I have 30 pre-existing projects and the problem exists on all of them.
I started a separate discussion about my problem. You can search for "Major problem with Quiz Screens after loading Captivate 7.0.1 patch" and it should pop up. I have been working with a couple other Adobe Staff on this and have provided a file.
While they were able to fix the initial problem, several others arose. This was caused in part by the fact that I have and advanced action which affects the quiz results screen and now it no longer works on the html5 version. I have not yet explored the possible problems with drag and drop quiz questions and expect there will be some because those questions are problematic anyway.
Everything worked on our LMS and locally (swf, and html5 on desktop systems) BEFORE I installed the patch, and the main reason I installed it was to fix the problem on the iPAD and other tablets. Now the initial problem shown in this discussion works, but other things are broken. I have 30 projects with this problem and they are all due next week.
I would like to uninstall the patch for now and worry about it when everything has been delivered.

Would anybody have an idea of the direction I should take in order to solve the problem ?
Thanks, Best regards,

Hello,
Thank you for replying.
1) I have followed the process you proposed to me. But I never get the mention (of that kind of mention) : Having Trouble connecting to Internet. So I can’t go further. It seems to be impossible to install the software with an online connection but it seems to be impossible to install it without an offline connection as well.
2) A have an new question : Which ports and protocols should we open/follow to make the installation possible ?
I have asked our IT department to investigate the point 1. I am not sure they will find a solution and we may have to stop and give up.
Thanks in advance for replying to my second question.
Best regards.

Adobe Captivate 6 not able to add Slide Notes

Having an issue with Adobe Captivate 6 with adding Slide Notes.
I can add them via Window>Slide Notes, but we cannot add them via clicking on the Properties tab of a slide then clicking on "Add Audio..." then clicking on the bottom "Captions & Slide Notes...". It will not let us add any Slide notes at this point.
Please advise, as teammates are sure they used this second version in the past successfully.
Thank you.........

Thank you for the reply.
The notes are just notes to the developer, so they don't have to sync with the audio.
Nonetheless, what do you mean by "Make sure your audio file is selected..."?
I went into my TIMELINE and clicked on the audio which opened the "Slide Audio" screen, then clicked on "Captions & Slide Notes..." and the Slide notes/Captions tabs show, but I cannot type anything into either of these areas......
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks again

Adobe Captivate Error

I'm using Captivate and at the end of my development process, I tried to insert a "click box" in the file while review my final project. I received a Microsoft Error Message... Adobe Captivate has encountered a problem and needs to close. I'm asked to select three options... Debug, Send Error Report or Don't Send a report. I limited my presentation to 50 slides, I've removed any graphics but still receiving the message once I close and reopen and attempt to edit the file in any way. What is the deal? Why is this happening? I've also tried to do a "Save As" and write over the original file and rename the file as a new file. I've also tried to open another file in Captivate, copy a click box in the other file and past the click box in the corrupted file. Why did this happen? anyone know?

I'm having the same issue only when trying to import slides from another project. Did you ever figure it out?

Bookmark Captivate-developed course in LMS

We're trying to get the bookmark feature to work with a Captivate-developed
course (using Captivate 3, course is SCORM 1.2) on the SkillPort LMS. We had assumed that it was sufficient to use the appropriate SCORM.htm and scorm_support.js files (i.e., those that are part of the Adobe Captivate program). However, the bookmarking feature does not seem to work on the course that we loaded to SkillPort. So now I'm thinking that I must have made some wrong selections under Preferences. I'm wondering --
1. Under the Quiz Reporting "Advanced Functions," should I de-select "Never send Resume Data"?
2. Under Quiz Reporting, should I have selected "Interactions and score"? Does the LMS need the interactions in order to note where the learner stopped his session?
3. Or should I have added a playbar to the course, so that the learner could click the playbar's x to exit from the course? (Currently there is no playbar, and the learner just clicks the x in the upper right window corner to close the course.) Although my SkillPort contact tells me that the playbar can be problematic, so I'm thinking we should leave it out. (We don't need it, as we use buttons in the course for navigation.)
Thank you for any insights! This is new territory for me, and the Captivate online help doesn't explain the bookmarking feature.
(Note: I had originally tacked this question onto another topic on this forum, but since it was in an inappropriate category I suspect no one found it, so now I'm posting it in this eLearning section.)

Here's an update. After I de-selected "Never send Resume Data" and also changed the Reporting tab (to not report) on the quiz questions (since in our case, the questions are not the basis for successful completion), we re-published the course at the LMS, and now the bookmarking feature works when you are into the course a ways, for example, if you leave the course at, say page 11, when you later return, page 1 opens only momentarily and right away page 11 is displayed, which is good.
However, it seems if you exit the course at an earlier page, for example, page 6, that the course goes only to page 2 (instead of page 6) later when you resume. We're wondering whether this may relate to -- perhaps we need a quiz question earlier in the course, or perhaps we should delete a silly text animation that I put on page 2, or perhaps something else is causing the first few pages in the course not to correctly activate the bookmark/resume function.

Adobe Captivate LMS Compatibility Guide - Anyone Interested??

Why is it so hard to find information about Captivate LMS Compatibility?
I'll admit to being somewhat frustrated with the lack of easily procurable information about how to make Adobe Captivate content compatible with the plethora of LMS products now flooding the marketplace. (There are over 100.) I had hoped for years that Adobe would put up a site (or at least a page or two) that listed LMSs and laid out the correct settings in Captivate to use for each one. Sadly this hasn't happened. And the search function on this forum seems to be broken, which makes it more than hard to find information about a given named LMS.
So in desperation I've decided to try and provide a venue for this type of information myself. I'm going to reserve a section on my website at www.infosemantics.com.au for information specific to Adobe Captivate LMS Compatibility. I'll be listing anyLMS products there for which I can procure information related to using Captivate. Headings on each LMS page will overview the LMS functionality, compatibilty with SCORM or AICC standards, any known issues with compatibility with Captivate content, what Cp quiz settings other users have found work successfully, as well as any modifications to templates, or workarounds that have proven useful.
Naturally, I only have access to a small number of LMS products for testing. So I'm enlisting help from any LMS users on this forum to provide suggestions and information collaboratively.
Here's what I need from you:
Simply go to http://www.infosemantics.com.au/contact and leave a message stating the brand and version of LMS/s you use, and a contact email address where I can reach you for information on how you got your Captivate content to work with it. I will add a new page to the LMS Guide covering every LMS for which people offer information and add the info under each heading. Each LMS page will also allow comments so that other users can offer feedback and suggestions. If the volume of response is to high for mere comments, I can add a forum for each LMS where users can exchange information on what worked for them. User's interested in a given LMS can subscribe to that page so that they will be notified via RSS of any updates to information.
I intend to create test projects in Cp5 that have various combinations of Quiz Settings which (according to user feedback) SHOULD WORK on each LMS. You'll be able to download these zipped SCORM or AICC packages to test on your own LMS as well as the Captivate project files (cp and cptx format) used to create them, so that you can see the settings used. Hopefully this will help you to debug compatibility with your own LMS.
You can also leave a message on the contact form if you are trying to use a particular LMS but haven't had much success and would appreciate getting information about it. I can't promise to find the answers, but someone else that chimes in might be able to do so once they know you're looking.
My sincere hope is that over time this resource will build into something that will save a lot of time and angst for every Captivate developer trying to work with an ever-growing number of LMS products. More and more clients have them. But it's a minefield out there.
Anyone interested in participating in this attempt?

No, I'm not only concerned with Cp5's LMS compatibility.
I intend to put up information about all Captivate versions that anyone can supply information on. Most likely this will be from about Cp3 onward.

Adobe Captivate Reviewer - won't load .crev file in Vista

Using Reviewer for the first time (Captivate 4 on Vista box).
Downloaded Reviewer from email link
Clicked on .crev file from email link
In the Reviewer, got message "Unable to load SWF file. Try opening Adobe Captivate Reviewer in the Administrator mode" (see pic)
Clicked OK
Clicked the .crev file in email link again per message "Load Adobe Captivate Movie (.crev, .swf., or .zip)"
Got same "unable to load.... " message again (see pic). Viscious circle here
Downloaded Reviewer to my XP machine - all works like it should.
What do I need to do to my Vista box (primary machine) for the Reviewer to work?
SMILES
Susann

This issue arises because, for some reason, the adobe developer(s) have hard coded a temporary file location of "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate Reviewer <X>*\workspace" to store the .crev, .swf or .zip file when you open it from its original location. In most corporate environments "\Program Files\ or \Program Files (x86)\" is, correctly, restricted to non-administrative users to ensure the integrity of managed applications and the industry standards for temporary storage have been long established as \temp\, \windows\temp\ or <user profile>\appdata\temp\
The corporate workaround to your issue is relatively simple. Your user account needs to be granted the privilege to be able to create and own the workspace folder in the above location. If this is not feasible then you could always just copy the entire contents of "C:\ProgramFiles\CommonFiles\Adobe\Adobe Captivate Reviewer <X>*" to a location on your machine where you have full access, i.e. your desktop.
Ultimately Adobe development need to update the code in Adobe Air.dll to create the workspace in a temporary folder that conforms to industry standards
