Swf with external .as files not working in Captivate

Hello,
I am using Flash Professional CS5.5 & Captivate 5.5 (purchased with eLearning suite).
When I insert swf animations into Captivate that have external .as files they do not work.
Tried both insert animation & insert animation slide - same results.
I placed the .as files in the same file as my Captivate project and have tried multiple setting options.
The FPS are set to 30.
I had the same problem with external audio files and had to embed the audio into my fla to get it to play in Captivate.
Does Captivate just not allow external files?
Any help/insight is appreciated!!
Les-

The most likely reason for this failure is that since your SWF is now embedded into another SWF (the Captivate project) the paths to the AS files need to be altered in Flash to allow for this.
You need to investigate how this would be done in AS code if your Flash SWF was a symbol inside another Flash SWF.

  • Testing SWF with external XML file, strange problem.

    Hi!
    My problem started after migration to 2.01. But I think it's
    not version problem.
    I have old project which uses external XML files ("
    http://www.mydomain.com/myxml.xml").
    When I teste project in "bin" folder it works perfect and SWF
    import data from XML.
    I created new Flex project and copied all scripts from old
    one. And my new app can't read external XML!!! (tested in "bin"
    folder):
    *** Security Sandbox Violation ***
    Connection to xmlURL halted - not permitted from
    file:///C:/myproject/bin/myproject-debug.swf
    BUT when I copy my new SWF to the old project "bin" folder
    then it WORKS! Strange!
    I found in Help "The Global Flash Player Trust directory" and
    I checked files: "flexbuilder.cfg", "flexbuilder.fbr" there are all
    my project paths (old and new).
    Thanks for help!

  • External MP3 files not working

    Hi,
    I have attached code straight out of the help file for using
    External MP3 files. It works perfect when I use their HelpExample
    sound MP3 file. However when I simply change the code to point to a
    working MP3 sound file in my LocalHost folder it executes but I
    only get a Blip sound.
    If I just double click on the sound file it sounds ok. and I
    have been successful in using these MP3 files embedded in Flash 8.0
    fla file
    Do the external MP3 files have to be on some special server?
    I am using this code with Flash 8.0
    Thanks,

  • Flash Catalyst SWF file not working in Captivate 4

    Hi,
    I downloaded the trial version of Flash Catalyst to use in conjuction with Captivate (I don't know how to write code) so that I have scrolling text boxes in my project. Well, Flash Catalyst works as designed, but when I go to import the swf file into captivate, they don't play nice together. My project is in AS3, which is congruent with Flash Catalyst. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong, or work arounds to get it to run would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Tony

    Hi Tony,
    I got your file, thanks! I have not tried it inside Captivate because I was not on the same machine were Captivate is installed. However, if you tried to use,  in Captivate, the main.swf file located in the deploy-to-web folder than you will have some issues. The file in that folder is very lightweight because it will download at run-time the flex framework. Therefore, if the framework is not in the same location as the main.swf when captivate runs, the animation will not show up properly. So, if you copy the other swf and swz in the same folder were Captivate publishes, then it should work.
    However, there is an easier way to do this. You have another folder called run-local. This folder contains a bigger main.swf file. This file already contains all the framework part in it. So, if you try to use this file instead, it should work inside Captivate.
    Give this a try and let me know if it works out.

  • When is Apple going to fix the problem with external hard drive not working on Lion?

    As for everyone else external hard drive does not work with Lion.
    When will Apple fix this problem. Do they just ignore the customer : (

    Copy off all your data off the NTFS formatted drive to another drive
    Open Disk Utility in the Applications>Utilities folder
    Select your external NTFS drive on the far left,  should have the drive makers name, a ID perhaps plus the word "media"
    Click the Partition Tab, click the big box and click 1 Partition

    If you want a Mac/PC drive (for over 4GB sized files) > Option: MBR > format exFAT
    If you want a Mac/PC drive (for the most compatibility with other devices, Win XP, but only under 4GB sized files) > Option: MBR > format MSDOS (FAT or FAT32)
    Give it a name and click Apply.
    You can also search Microsoft for a free exFAT download if you have Win XP.

  • Federation Service with External Organization is not working

    Hi,
    Exchange 2010 is running in present environment and recently I have introduced Exchange 2013. There is federation Enabled at Exchange 2010 end with External Exchange organization. When we migrated users from E2k10 to E2k13 Free /Busy sync has stopped working.
    Exchange 2k10 & E2k13 in same Exchange organization and no errors found in configuration part and all seems Success.
    Here what I am suspecting, something that I need to do at F5 load balancer end, not sure what :( .. I need urgent help from Experts in this forum to help me in case I have missed something to make Federation working. 
    Amit

    Hi.
    Federation in coexistence mode runs through the Exchange 2013.
    Coexistence with Exchange 2010
    In organizations that contain both Exchange 2010 and Exchange 2013 servers, users who have a mailbox on an Exchange 2010 Mailbox server can use organization relationships to share free/busy information with recipients in external Exchange 2013 federated
    domain organizations. The Exchange 2010 Client Access and Mailbox servers must be running SP2 or higher, and you must have at least one Exchange 2013 Client Access server in the Exchange 2010 organization.
    Troubleshooting plan
    1) Check run correctly Exchange CAS 2010/2013
    2) Enabled Outlook logging and checked the logs. For Client from Exchange 2010 and Exchange 2013 mailbox.
    3) Ran Test-OrganizationRelationship on Exchange 2010 and Exchange 2013.
    4) Checked the Federation settings on Exchange 2013.
    5) On Exchange 2013 and 2010 server: Get-FederationTrust | Set-FederationTrust -RefreshMetadata

  • External command is not working in File Receiver Adapter

    Hi,
       I have tried to copy the file which is mentioned in my File Adapter (Receiver) to 3 different folders thru OS command. The purpose is to save time. I have created one CC for Source(File) and one CC for target(File). After the target file is created, I want to copy this file in 3 folders. For this I have written one batch file in my system.
    File Name: copy1.bat
    @ECHO OFF
    COPY %1 C:\TEST1\arch_t1
    COPY %1 C:\TEST2\arch_t2 
    COPY %1 C:\TEST3\arch_t3
    DEL %1
    The command which I entered in the Receiver CC (File Adatper is)
    Run Operating System Command After Message Processing
    Command Line: C:\FILES\copy1.bat %F %f
    Timeout(secs): 60
    Terminate Program After Timeout - Check box is selected.
    But, this external command is not working. (because the target files are not created in those directories C:\TEST1, C:\TEST2, C:\TEST3)
       I did this scenario by refering the Michael'w weblog:
    /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2007/02/08/xipi-command-line-sample-functions
       In this blog, he has also given how to troubleshoot external command. I tried this also. It is not working.
        I use Windows XP OS. XI 3.0 SP 18.
       Friends, Could you kindly tell why this external command is not working? What could be the problem?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kind Regards,
    Jeg P.

    Hi, Jeg.
    As the note says, please check the java Runtime.exec behavior
    with the proper user.
    If in doubt, check if the command can be successfully run through
    the Java Runtime.exec(...) API. Also note that the command is run
    as user "<sid>adm" (Unix) / "SAPService<SID>" (Windows).
    So, Could you check the following(very dirty one!) Java in your
    XI server and check if it works? For simulating %F, create a test
    file C:\FILES\test.txt whatever the content is.
    import java.util.*;
    import java.io.*;
    public class ExecJava {
      public static void main(String args[]) {
        try {           
          Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
          Process proc = rt.exec("C:/FILES/copy1.bat C:
    FILES
    test.txt");
        } catch (Exception e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
    Good Luck.

  • Mac air with external hard drive - not being found on Finder, Time Machine, Migration Assistant

    I have been using an external drive (Imation Apollo) to access only, old files from previous computer (PC) on a new Mac Air.  I had not transferred them across to new computer (didn't want to do that)  just accessing them from the HD.  It had been working fine until recently.  Each time the external drive had been connected Time Machine would come up and ask if i wanted to use this drive for back ups, and I always chose 'Decide later'.  So, as yetI hadn't as yet configured Time Machine to do back ups.
    Recently I noticed that the extrnal HD was no longer showing up on Finder.  Slight panic as i have 5 or 6 yrs of work saved on that HD
    Further investigations - it's also not showing up either on on Disk Utility, or on Migration Assistant.
    I've done the following: 
    Tried HD in each of different USB ports  - made no difference, HD still not showing up
    Tested different Hubs in each port with HD attached - no difference HD not showing up
    Tried USB flash drives in the USB ports - These are working fine and show up on finder
    Tried the HD on other comptuters (a PC though, don't have access to another mac to do this test)- working fine, the HD is showing up and is accessable
    Interrogated the Console logs to try to see if the act of attaching the HD creates a log entry - couldn't find anything
    Rebooted computer via shut down, power disconnect - no difference
    Reset PRAM - no difference still not showing up
    Reset SMC - no differnce still not showing up
    So I think I have established that all the USB ports are functioning correctly and able to access other external drive devices, using hubs with external powersource is not the issue, identified that the external hard drive is working OK, and it appears that the Mac itself is functioning normally.
    What would be the reason the Mac now does not allow this specific external HD to be identified and accessed.  The only possible things I can think of are
    if I had in fact pressed 'Do not use' when Time Machine asked 'do you want to use this drive for back ups'.  Would that mean that the Mac now totally rejects this HD from being a source of accessible files - I hope not!
    I also think that my husband may have disconnected the hard drive from my computer to access some stuff and he just yanked it out rather than use the safe eject method.  Could this create an issue?  The Hard drive works fine on his PC.
    Why is my Mac Air now rejecting this HD and what can I do to access my historical files now. 
    Any assistance anyone can provide would be very greatly appreciated!
    Thanks
    Anna

    I can't answer why it isn't accessing it, but I have a slightly related issue w my back up drive starting to get noisy.
    Realizing that redundancy is safety for critical data.  I talked to my brother about my situation the other day & he said he has 3 small Western Digital portable HDs that he rotates for backup. He even keeps 1 in the safe deposit box.
    I have read for some time that we should have multiple back ups & also have our critical stuff backed up off site. Amazon HD reviews had a woman telling about how she was very backed up on multiple computers & hard drives, but they were robbed or burgeled & all of them were stolen including her thesis that was on the computers.
    Hard drives aren't that expensive. I just bought a new Western Digital 1 TB drive for $89.99. I plan to use it to back up the Seagate that is getting noisy & then maybe alternate them.
    Also, when I came back to Mac, I moved practially all of my documents to Mac. I think I just dragged & dropped or something. Photos, Office, & pdfs do fine that way. & then you could back them up to a couple of different external drives & remove from your MacBookAir.
    Unfortunately I think most of us do not back up until crisis & then it may be too late.
    Also use Time Machine. For the 1st time in my computer life, my computer is well backed up--although now realizing the need for redundancy so will start backing up to at least 2 different HDs alternatly.
    So, not sure why it isn't working & hopefully you have come up w a solution by now.
    I think what I would do in a situation like this, since you can access it on the Windows machine would be to transfer the data to the Windows machine & then transfer it back to a different back up.
    I'm looking into backing up what I still have in Windows using a thumb flash drive. I think it should all fit ok now that they have the larger drives & I don't have very much left in Windows format.

  • External Drive Files Not Showing Up on Mac but files do shows Up on PC

  • Generate to File not working

    Hai,
    we are calling the report using the command line method not
    run_product.for these reports 'Generate to File' menu is not working.It shows
    an error like Umimplemented Error (rep-0999).There is one default printer attached to m/c. and the operation system is winows nt.This is working when running the report in report builder.it is not working when called through menu.Pls help me to solve this problem.
    dilip

    Hi,
    I am not sure what do you want to convey here - "It is working with Reports builder and not working with menu". From Report builder, only way to generate the otput to file is to go through menu, there are no other shortcut or toolbar icon present. Do you want to say, it works when you run to previewer but is failing when you generate to a file. To give you a hint:
    1. Does the problem exist with only this report or with all the reports?
    2. If the problem is with all the reports, then there is a setup problem.
    3. Try running PRINTER DRIVER TEST against your printer, to check it is ok?
    4. Check that the login under which you are trying to run the report, has the priviledge to print with this default printer.
    5. Try changing the printer driver?
    If this does not solve the problem, please contact Oracle support to resolve this issue.
    Thanks,

    If you are searching the registry, check for the "Senforce" string. It should be at HKLM\Software\Senforce
    Try running the install program for the ZSC with the following command line:
    setup.exe /V"STUNINSTALL=1"
    If you've specified an uninstall password, try this one instead:
    setup.exe /V"STUNINSTALL=1 STUIP=password"" (please note the double quote at the end)
    Let me know if that helped you.

  • My Ipad 2 external speakers does not work and headphones has popping sound. This all occured at the same time as my Iphone and Ipod headphones only played mono (no, the "mono" option is not on). How can there be audio issue for all these devices?

    My IPad 2 external speaker does not work and the original headphones have popping sound when used. This all occurred at the same time as my IPhone and IPod headphones only plays mono (and no, the "mono" option is not on) with the original headphones, as well as, other headphones tested.  How can there be audio issue for all these devices at the same time?
    As you may have noted from the list of Apple devices I own, I believed in the Apple and the products it was producing; but it is hard to believe from my experience and the other voices within the Apple Community that we are all experiencing the same hardware issues. Especially since I recently, I upgraded to an IPhone 4g (no, my faith in IPhone 5 series is very little) and is experiencing the same audio problem as described above. So now, I am off to the Apple store again to be told that it’s a hardware problem on new IPhone. Really? Apple, what happen to the pride in the product you were producing?

    Everyone does things a little differently. I love to "jam " along with iTunes ( or old Lp's) . Always have. That's where/how I've learned to play .
    I'm sure leonieDF is giving a proper way to jam along on a keyboard with an iTune. He blows my mind all the time with what he knows. Nuff respects to him !
    What I do is make a GB project I call "Jam With". I'll make several new tracks that are blank. Just has a few instruments named in the blank tracks. You can change those per song ...
    Because I'm not concerned about changing the pitch / key.... of the iTune or the tempo ... I can simply play along with it.
    Peace,

  • External mouse scrolling not working

    The scrolling function of my external mouse does not work when the MacBook Pro is not plugged in with its powercord. The mouse buttons seem to be functioning.  So does as an external keyboard. My wife has the same problem (using 10.6.2 OS). There are no options in the System Preferences that deal with this. Is this just an oversight by Apple? This basically makes using an external keyboard and mouse a nonviable option for a laptop unless you are near an electric outlet. If you know of a workaround I would appreciate the information. If not, it is something Apple will have to correct as it a pretty obvious oversight.
    Thanks in advance for any advice.
    Tony

    Check your settings when it is unplugged to make sure they are still properly configured.  You might even want to try and disable the trackpad when a mouse is being used.  I would also check out USB Overdrive (Shareware).
