Swfs don't work (Captivate and Flash AS2)

I inserted a .swf from a published Captivate 5 file into my PowerPoint. When I preview the ppt, it plays fine, but when I publish it to Presenter it no longer works. It's just a blank white screen. Any suggestions?
Additionally, I created a very simple Flash file with basic button functionality and brought it into PowerPoint. It shows up but none of the buttons work, and I have no _global or _root code in it. Any help would be great.

Unfortunately guys, I wish I had better news, but there's a reason why  Captivate 5 content will not run in Adobe Presenter.
By default, Cp 5 now publishes using Actionscript 3 and that's the  culprit!
Presenter is still using Actionscript 2.0 so the problem here is that the  governing codebase in P7 doesn't recognize, and therefore cannot  run/execute/understand the codebase coming from Captivate 5.
There is, however, a workaround: rather than inserting the Cp swf into PPT  (for Presenter output), you can link to the Captivate content as externally  accessible content.  An obvious drawback here is that you'll have another  browser window to contend with, but there are a few upsides to this approach as  well; namely, if your Captivate content ever needs to be updated, you can do  that without ever having to republish your Presenter course.  I've utilized this  approach a number of times, and although there's some upfront homework to deal  with, it's been a time-saver in the long term.
Now, as for the Flash file/buttons you mentioned....I have a quick question  for you: are you coding your Flash piece using Actionscript 3?  Again, as weith  Captivate 5, anything with AS 3.0 in it will be completely ignored in Presenter  7.  Also be sure that when you set up a Flash file (and definitely before you  publish/export your flash content) you'll need to set the Publish Settings for  Actionscript 2.0.
Until Adobe updates Presenter, this is going to be something we all will need  to deal with.

  • Why does Teamspeex don't work anymore and how can I fix it?

    Hi
    At my university we use a Teamspeak2 Server for our online lectures. Last friday i tried to attend one of those lectures. I can still connect properly and see all participants but the is no sound at all. I can't hear anyone talking and the microphone don;t work. I checked the settings and it seems the client can not detect any of the devices (speaker nor microphone). But I am not sure if this is the only problem, because i don't even see the visuals indicating if someone speaaks.
    I've a Mac Book Pro  2011 and I got it when it was out. Till the end of last semester it worked without any problems using Teamspeex Beta 4.06. I've updated to 408 but still the same problem. The only new is a MacOs upgrade to Mountain Lion.
    Can I fix this somehow or do I need to install a bootcamp?

    Have you ever done a bump charge??? If not, to do a bump charge, wait until the indicator is green, then power down the device. the indicator will change back to orange.... Let it charge until the indicator is green again. If you have never done this, you may need to do so three days straight or so.

  • Tweens don't work in multiple external AS2 SWFs loaded by AS3 SWF

    When I try to load a single external AS2 SWF in an AS3 parent
    SWF, scripted tweens using the mx.tween class work fine. However,
    when I load two or more external AS2 SWFs, the first will work, but
    in subsequent SWFs the tweens do not animate. Does anyone have a
    solution?

    SymTsb,
    So what is the code to do that? To delete the TWEEN variable?
    easeTime = .5;
    var day_handlerX:Tween = new
    mx.transitions.Tween(daynightlabel_mc, "_x",
    mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut, daynightlabel_mc._x,

    day_handlerX.onMotionFinished = function() {
    trace("day_handlerX="+day_handlerX);
    trace("day_handlerX onMotionFinished triggered");
    delete day_handlerX;
    trace("deleted day_handlerX="+day_handlerX);
    does not work. the TWEEN object is still there.
    Can ADOBE say something??

  • My animated gif keeps pausing in captivate and flash

    Hi guys, thanks for your help.
    I made an animated gif in Photoshop CS4 and inserted it as an animation into captivate 6. The animation works (I played it several times by opening it with internet explorer and safari). But when I open it in Captivate the animation goes black for a split second-several times, before it reappears-several times. It gives it almost a "reloading" or pause look when I play it. The same in flash, but in Adobe Flash CS4 Professional the timeline shows black dots once in a while, as you can see in the screen shot below.
    See those black dots? I will insert a picture of what happens, when the player lands on one of those black dots:
    It's the same animation, but only shows a little. Like I said, it plays fine when I open it with an internet browser, it plays fine when I play it in photoshop, but it just won't work with flash or captivate.
    Any thoughts? Thanks so much!! I really appreciate your help guys!
    Nat

    No problem. Building a simple animation in Flash isn't that bad. You could save each "frame" as an image from PhotoShop and then import these into Flash and place one frame at the time on a keyframe in the flash timeline (press F6 to insert a keyframe).
    If you want your animation to loop then you don't have to do anything as this is the default behavior. If you want it to stop at the last frame you insert a command in ActionScript to stop it. Select the last keyframe and hit F9 and type stop() in the ActionScript window.
    Good luck!

  • Why swf don't work

    I use after effects cs4,first I use Composition->New Composition,and import back.psd and rabbit.tga files.Then I use Pin Tool on rabbit.tga,and make it move. I use Composition->Preview->RAM Preview,I can see the rabbit.tga really moves. This is the effect which I want. At last,I use File->Export->Adobe Flash Player(SWF) to create a swf file,but when I run the swf,I find the rabbit.tga don't move!!! Why? Where is wrong?
    Any idea will be appreciated!
    Thanks

    Make sure that Rasterize Unsupported Features in your SWF export settings.

  • Captivate and Flash

    Hi,
    I have set up a navigation bar in flash rather than using the
    in built captivate navigation bar, and then I load my captivate
    into the flash movie. For the next button I am using
    rdcmndNextSlide = 1; and for pause rdcmndPause = 1; etc.
    I want to have a button that will open the menu in captivate,
    does anyone know if there is a command I can use in Flash to
    achieve this? The only menu related command in captivate I can see
    is cpLockTOC which locks the menu into position, but not one to
    open or close it.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Unfortunately there is no command / variable to open or close
    the TOC menu. You are stuck with the way it was programmed by
    Adobe.
    I recommend that you suggest the feature to Adobe using this
    form:
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&product=5
    The TOC and lack of customization possibilities have been
    discussed alot amongst Captivate users so the more people that
    report these issues to Adobe - the better the chance of getting a
    fix ;o)

  • Hot Corners don't work/Click and drug doesn't work

    Hi, I have two computers, iMac 2008 desktop (OS X 10.9.4 ) and Mac air book.  Recently about  3 weeks ago. Both of them started having issues. When  i will navigate in any corners they would not work (neither Screen Saver, nor All Applications) none of the hot corners that I set up work. However, at times they would work but really slow and my computer kind of like logging (getting supper slow)  Another thing happened to both computers: When I click and drug any file from one folder to another it just would not do. the file I click would get hi lighted stick to my mouse pointer and the computer would just freeze. However, when I do copy and paste a file it works.  I upgraded to Yosemite and even that did not help.   I reinstalled OS X from my old time machine back to  OS  X 10.9.4 and the problem still persist.  Is this disease  a nation wide ???
    Please help....
    did anyone else had something ???

  • No sound at all for incoming calls, txts, games i tried everything reset, restore , delete content and reset , reset network settings. Alarm sounds work but notification sounds don't work please and mute button is in ring mode

    No sound at all for incoming calls, txts, games. I have checked the side mute switch. Volume is all way up. All notifications are on.  I can hear tones when I go to change them. I can hear my music.  I can hear talking on videos I have taken.  I have tried everything I know to do(reset,restore,reset network settings,reset content and other settings and mute button is not ON)Please help!

    This is exactly the same problem I am having. I dropped the phone one time I think that was the reason. Now I cant seem to find any solution to fix it and it will cost me $149 to buy a new phone? There has to be a way to fix this problem.
    When I put it in speaker phone I can hear but not voices through the phone.

    Hello duff1 and welcome to the Palm forums.
     Have you tried a hard reset yet?  How old is the battery?  Is it the origianl battery?  It might be time to replace it. The Treo 650 is very old at this point.
     You might want to also consider performing a hard reset.  That will erease your device and reset things to the way things were out of the box.  You'll have to reload your data by HotSync'ing your Treo with your Mac or Windows PC. The data from the last HotSync will be restored to the phone.

  • New development in Flash Captivate and Content Management

    My compay currently uses Serena Collage for Content
    Management along with Macromedia Studio MX 2004 for web site
    development. We have an upcoming e-learning project that we are
    considering developing in Captivate and Flash. We are mandated that
    all development be Section 508 compliant and e-learning must be
    SCORM compliant as well.
    Can I continue to use Collage to manage content developed
    from Captivate and Flash or will I have to use a different product?
    According to documentation Captivate SCORM and 508 compliant and is
    Flash 508 compliant is this correct?
    Please advise.

    I am not familiar with Collage or its requirements, but Flash
    MX 2004 is 508 compliant, I have had to make partial and full
    compliant courses with it. That being said, it took us a decent
    amount of time and effort.

    That's a major bummer. This is a deal breaker for me.
    I go to Taiwan and China often, and when I'm there, I switch a local SIM card into my phone. That way I don't need to pay roaming charges, and local people can use a local number to reach me. It's the only way that makes sense.
    I'm fine paying AT&T for the service in US, but when I'm not in US I don't want to be locked in. When Apple has a solution for us international people, then I'd rush out immediately and get a iPhone.

  • Spacebar and other shortkeys don't work...

    Hello lads!
    I've ran into a big problem my G5(osx 10.3.7)...Some of the shortcuts in the Adobe CS package don't work anymore and the spacebar fails in any application!
    I'm a newbee with the mac, and i don't understand anything about the key failures...Allready plugged the keyboard in and out, updated my osx 10.3.5 to 7... restored the keyboard settings...
    Please can someone tell me what is wrong...? I'm going mad about it...
    Gr, Jelmer

    It sounds like there might be a problem with your keyboard. Borrow or buy a USB keyboard (it can be a PC keyboard if that's all that you have access to), and plug it into your Mac and see if all of the keys work properly in your applications. If it does, replace your keyboard.
    Another way to test your keyboard from a software perspective would be to create a new user account, login to that account, and see if all of your keys behave properly in your apps. If they do, then it would definitely point to this being a software issues...possibly a corrupt preference file for the Keyboard and Mouse preference pane.
