Status of Captivate Exchange or Integration of Adobe Exchange Plug-in

I seem to remember a while back that there was discussion of reworking the Captivate Exchange, or maybe it was incorporating the Adobe Exchange plug-in into Captivate (I can't remember exactly) so that users could share themes, showcase projects, etc. Has there been any movement on that front? No one seems to use the classic Captivate Exchange anymore.

The Captivate Exchange is a sad sad place that doesn't get updated for months at a time and where you still get offered AS2 widgets, even though they won't work in any of the last 5 versions of Captivate.
Adobe has spoken about adding a new 'marketplace' similar to the Apple and Google Appstores.  Some other CC apps already have it.  So far Captivate does not.  Stay tuned...

  • Is there a Adobe Captivate Exchange or Add-on Section

    Is there a Adobe Captivate Exchange or Add-on Section that I am overlooking?
    If there isn't an official Adobe section are there any suggested places?
    Or are elearningtemplates.com and elearningart.com the only official places now?
    Thank you

    Hi there,
    Currently I am not aware of an official Captivate or Add-ons Exchange directly from Adobe. We have worked with the Captivate team but it was felt that because Captivate is not a CC app it did not make sense within Add-ons. It is certainly worth asking he Captivate team via the Adobe Captivate forums however.
    Hope that helps.

  • Actionscript / swf integration with Adobe Presenter

    I need to do some Actionscript / swf integration with Adobe Presenter content.
    Is there any way to access information about current slide nr., total number of slides and "end of presentation" information from swf(Actionscript 3.0) inserted into Adobe Presenter?
    I am using Adobe Presenter 8 with Adobe Connect 8.

    First, the best place is probably the Presenter forum, which somewhat curiously is under the Connect umbrella:
    http://forums.adobe.com/community/connectpro/connectpro_presenter
    Out of curiousity, why are you using AICC? Because the content is on a different domain?
    To the point, it's great to have a logging or debugging tool for these sort of things to view the communication between the LMS and the lesson. Perhaps the lesson is sending the 'completed' status but also sending some other value that the LMS is using to change the status back to incomplete?
    My first suggestion would be to try the lesson in a tool like TestTrack...but I don't think that handles AICC. Does the Saba LMS have any kind of debugger or logging tool you can use? You really need to see if the lesson is sending the status back to the LMS as you suspect it should. If it IS, then the issue lies with the LMS and how it's interpreting that result. If it's NOT, then you can then perhaps figure out what to adjust in the lesson.
    In general, just play with the settings. If it's set to Complete/Incomplete and has a Mastery Score, try NOT setting the Mastery Score... And other such combinations.
    I hope the folks in the Connect/Presenter forum can provide more insight.

  • CAPTIVATE EXCHANGE - Alternative!

    As anyone who has tried to upload to the Captivate Exchange would possibly know, sometimes they take a long time to approve your component and upload it for download/sale.
    As an idea, i thought i would create this discussion and people who have created a widget and are waiting for it to be uploaded onto the Exchange, can also paste the link to their widget or component on this forum too. At least that way it will get some publicity while it sits in the unchecked files of the Adobe Exchange Q&A team
    So if you've created a widget and you're uploading it onto the Adobe Exchange (or even if you're not), then paste the link to your site or blog or whatever here so people can see it.

    I'll start...
    Here is a widget i created for a 'Drag-able Progress Bar' in Captivate 5 and 5.5

  • How to use SharePoint integration in Adobe Reader XI?

    Acrobat XI and Reader XI are now offering a SharePoint integration feature, supporting SharePoint 2010 and 2013.
    In 'Adobe Enterprise Administration Guide' there are some requirements mentioned for SharePoint, saying that there is a Acrobat License necessary for every client computer!
    Does that mean, that I can only use the SharePoint Integration in Adobe Reader with an additional Acrobat license?
    Has anybody tried this?

  • In FF 37.0.1 the plugin status checker is suddenly reporting that my Adobe Reader PDF plugin (11.0.10.32) is out of date & vulnerable.

    This wasn't the case when FF first upgarded to 37.0.1 but has changed in the last few days. I've checked for updates using the Adobe Reader console and it confirms that I have the latest version with 11.0.10.32. If I do click on update via the status checker, taking me to to the Adobe Acrobat Reader download page, the version offered for Windows Vista is 10.1.4 - surely an older version of what I currently have?
    Is this yet another flaw in Firefox's plugin status checker or do I really need to change something?

    Hi jonadelman, if you have 10.1.6, you are current. It's just that the plugin checker doesn't know that both 10.1.6 and 11.0.2 are current.

  • Captivate Exchange - files not supported?

    OK - today is my day to ask questions.
    I tried downloading a few of the items in the Captivate
    exchange (a design template, wallpaper, and a Jeopardy game).
    When I try to open them in captivate, I get a message that
    says "either the file type is not supported" or the file is
    corrupt.
    I'm using Captivate (not Captivate 2). Any ideas?

    Hello
    The Design Templates have been designed with, and are for,
    Captivate 2. Sorry about that, but there is a good reason. They
    demonstrate some of the new design features in Captivate 2, so
    aren't backwards compatible with Captivate 1. As others have
    suggested, downloading Captivate 2 and using the unzipped files in
    it should cure the problem.
    The templates are called Design Templates because they
    contain caption design elements that you can cut and paste between
    your documents to make brand new designs. Or you could make a copy
    of the whole file and delete unwanted pages from it - using those
    you like, unchanged.
    Hope this helps. Just post again if you are still having
    problems, and I'll check things out at the Exchange. When I last
    checked everything seemed to be working ok. Good luck!
    Ali
    PS On the Exchange download page, the Captivate version
    number is given to the left of the date.

  • Using Adobe Captivate 7 and keep getting Adobe Captivate has stopped working...

    I am new to Using Adobe Captivate 7 and keep getting Adobe Captivate has stopped working on Slide 7.  What can I try?

    Will you be delivering this content from an LMS?  If so, then the LMS should handle the menu.  Break your project into separate modules and use the Multi-SCORM Packager to create a bundled set.
    If you are not using an LMS, but ARE serving content from a web server, then YES you could create a menu module that you use to launch the other modules.
    If you are intending to serve this content from a LAN or CD ROM, then you could create a normal HTML web page with hyperlinks to launch individual modules.

  • The Adobe InDesign Plug-in Editor

    Aiming to make life easier for InDesign plug-in developers, we're proud to announce the beta release of the Adobe InDesign Plug-in Editor. This is an Eclipse based editing environment; featuring graphical editing of FR resources, an error-sensitive, code completion capable text editor, a widget documentation generator, and functionality to compile your plug-in without leaving the environment. Unlike the previous GUI editing offering, Freddy (for InDesign 2), this release handles custom widgets without user input, allows the instantaneous switching of locales, and has a significantly more robust parser capable of faithfully round tripping nearly every FR file in the SDK and core resources.
    The editor is now available, in three flavours, on Adobe Labs, at http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/InDesign_Plug-in_Editor. You can get it as a full distribution for Mac, and for Windows, and as a platform-independent set of plug-ins that can be integrated with an existing Eclipse installation (3.2.2 recommended).
    If you'd like more information, or have suggestions for improvement, please feel free to contact me directly,
    Thanks,
    James

    got it working, but it seems that for finish button to be activated, all of the fields must be filled in both in the mac panel and the windows panel. I think this is wrong because, if i'm developing in mac, i would only need to fill-in information pertaining to the mac environment, just like the dolly x's application.
    If i create a new plugin using dolly x, it does not require me to fill-in information that is windows related (I guess it only needs info on where to save the visual studio project file). Plus the editor, is using the config xml file that is also being used by the dolly x application shipped with the SDK. Can't this be a separate file instead?
    Also, checking the XSLT files that dolly x uses, all of them are in version 1.1 which is no longer in development, XSLT version 2.0 is now a recommendation and i think it would be great if this will be updated.
    I hope this information is helpful in better improving the editor.
    Thanks,
    Jeff

  • Anyone know where can download some dissertation adout adobe bridge plug-in?

    anyone know where can download some dissertations about adobe bridge plug-in?I`m vexationing and afflictioning ...........

    So yes from what I gathered on the phone support call, the update would download and fail during the install.  The support person did a remote desktop session where they dug through tmp folders checking various log files, etc.  They downloaded and tried installing some other type of patch.  No go. After an hour or so they threw up their hands.  I did a search for that to see if they followed up with a case # for the call, and I couldn't find it.  Either they didn't send me one or I accidentally deleted it (but it's not in my trash/archive so doubt that).
    Prior to the support call, I did a chat session, which was dropped because a link loaded into the session, ending it.  That was after I had been troubleshooting with them for about an hour.  Frustrating.  So I opted to call in instead of chat, see above.  The case # on that chat is #0185619250. I didn't follow up on it since I went the call route.  Here's another case I found on my acct, dealing w/ this matter.
    0185699971
    Btw, here's the full error msg I get when installing the PS CC 2014 update.  This is the same error I've been getting more over a month.  Thanks

  • Problem with Adobe Reader Plug-In (7, 8, and 9) on Windows XP

    We are experiencing a problem with the Adobe Reader plug-in and viewing documents hosted at our site.  The problem seems to happen with larger (over 5 MB) PDF files enabled for fast web viewing.  The problem never happens when viewing PDF image only files which are not enabled for fast web viewing.  The problem happens inside and outside our firewall, so it is not a firewall problem.  My organization has been hosting PDF files to the web at least all this decade, and this is the first time we have experienced and documented this problem on this scale.  We have ruled out the program creating the PDF file is causing the problem as I have eight sample PDF files created and modified by a variety of programs exhibiting the same issue.

    I can reproduce the problem with Internet Explorer 8.0.6 and Firefox 3.5.4 using Adobe Acrobat Plug-In 7.0.9.50 running on Windows XP Professional SP3.  Others have reproduced the problem with 8 and 9 versions of the plug-in on Windows XP Professional and Home.  Oddly, no one has been able to reproduce the problem with Unix/Linux versions of the plug-in or third party plug-ins.  This points to it being something wrong with Adobe Reader.
    The problem is when I attempt to view one of the eight PDFs in my browser, I can severely stall or lock it up if I attempt to view more than the first page before the whole document downloads.  Sometimes if you wait it out, the browser will unlock, but not display text on the pages.  Sometimes if you wait for the whole document to load before switching pages, it works.  Sometimes you can start switching pages and the document will not lock up at all.  All eight documents can be viewed without issue if downloaded to the PC's hard drive and then viewed with Adobe Acrobat 7.0.
    Can anyone point me to a technical document or reason why we would be experiencing this issue?  Even better, does anyone know the solution to these issues?
    Any help will be much appreciated.

    I looked at a few documents. They appear to be scans and scans that have been OCRd. It is also likely they have not been optimized for page view. This means that the document has to be fully downloaded before viewed. That means the browser may appear to freeze until the entire document is downloaded. Downloading the entire document appears to be a reasonable way to handle these files.

  • I've installed the Adobe Reader Plug In. Yet every time I click to see a PDF, it opens another browser and it is blank. The Browser reads about:blank. How can I fix this so that PDF's open in the browser?

  • I am experiencing difficulties opening some web-based PDF files on my iPad. I was having the same difficulty opening the same PDFs on my iMac (after I upgrade to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in settings.

    I am experiencing difficulty opening some web-based PDF documents on my iPad. I had exactly the same difficulty on my iMac (after I upgraded to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in security settings in Safari (in OSX).
    Unfortunately there does not seem to be a way to similarity adjust the security settings in Safari in iOS 8.
    The message I get when I attempt to open the PDF (on my iPad) is as follows:
                "To view the full contents of this document you need a later version of PDF viewer. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from ..."
    Needless to say this is unhelpful for two reasons:
    - I have the very latest version of Adobe Reader; and
    - in iOS Adobe Reader is not a plug-in and plays absolutely no role in opening web-based PDF documents.      
    If anyone has experienced this difficulty and has been able to overcome it I would be most appreciative to hear of you solution.
    Cheers

    Did you check what I would consider the first place to look:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions
    If the site is still down (at least 12 hours) when you read this try [http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:http%3A//kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions Google's cache]
    Link or url would make it easier to see which page you tried rather than "your online solution for ...".
