Unable to open Captivate v5.5 with Windows 7

A colleagure created a project using Captivate v5.5 / Win XP.
Now she is trying to open it with Captivate v5.5 but with newly installed Win 7.
After clicking on the file to open it, the progress bar stops at 30% and nothing else happens.
The project does not open.
Does anyone know why this might be and how to overcome the problem?
I am on v5.5 / Win XP and it opened OK for me.
Noel

OK here is what we have and still we have no luck.
My colleague had a laptop with Captivate v5.5 and Win XP. Everything was working just fine.
She just had Win 7 installed and is unable to open the project.
After checking - she had Admin rights and she is trying to open the project from within Captivate, and still no joy.
I sent her one of my v5.5 files, still she cannot open it.
Not being a technical person you must excuse what may seem a dumb statement but could it be that newly installed Win7 is drawing more resources (or other techinal bits) from her laptop than Wix XP did, and as a result Captivate v5.5 can no longer run correctly?
Does she need to take her lap top to IT and get them to ensure she has extra "oomph" to run Captivate now she has Win 7?

  • When I am running Firefox I am unable to open folders and files with Windows Explorer (Windows 7). This is so frustrating and all attempts to fix have been unsuccesful

    There is a clash with Windows 7 and Firefox that prevents one opening files and folders.

    Hi Dollie,
    I am wondering whether you want to upload multiple documents into SharePoint library once.
    If yes, you can try to use Drag and drop feature in SharePoint 2013 to upload multiple documents into SharePoint library.
    More information about Drag and drop feature, you can refer to:

  • Unable to open Captivate 4 file with Captivate 3

    As the title suggests, I created a project in Captivate 4 and would to edit the project in Captivate 3. When I try to open it, I get the error message, "Adobe Captivate could not open "project.cp" because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged..."
    Are these files not backwards compatible, even from Captivate 4 to 3? Anything else I should consider?
    (I created the project using a 64-bit version of Windows 7 , if that's a factor. I tried opening the file on another machine running Win XP, but got the same error.)

    Hi there
    Unfortunately Captivate projects are only forward compatible. And even that will have limits.
    Your best bet is to have both versions installed on the same PC. Then create a new, blank project in Captivate 3 that is sized identically to the one in 4. Then perform a copy/paste to move the content from 4 to 3.
    Note that any buttons or click boxes will likely need re-linking and you cannot expect things that are "4 specific" to work in 3 any longer. (Widgets, Advanced Actions and the like)
    Cheers... Rick

  • HT2506 Hello I'm unable to open any pdf's with preview window opens up with message file couldn't be opened because you don't have permission to view it (none of the pdf's have any security thanks if you can assist

    Hello this week I'm unable to open any pdf's with preview, when I select to open a window opens up with message "file couldn't be opened because you don't have permission to view it" none of the pdf's have any security thanks if you can assist

    Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not  going to reset a password.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

    I am also unable to get the 551L working with Windows 8 Beta 1 and Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion Developer Preview 2. Any Advice?

  • Unable to open a seperate java console window with javascript:window.open()

    Hi All,
    I am opening a new window using javascript:window.open() function by clicking an hyperlink in a html document. In this new windows I am trying to load an applet. Only for the first time a java console window is displayed in windows system tray . How can I open a different java console window each time I open a new window ? Basically I want to run each applet in its own JVM and it seems that each applet loaded in new window is using the same JVM and hence only one java console window is seen in my system tray.
    Please help ...

  • Unable to open Livecycle forms even with latest plug-ins

    Hi guys,
    I have a created a few dynamic forms designed using livecycle designer ES..In order for my users to open these forms, they need to have atleast Adobe acrobat / reader version 8.1 or higher to view these dynamic files. However, quite a few of my users are saying that they are still unable to open these forms directly from their browser although they have downloaded the latest Acrobat X version and the browser plug-ins in their computer. It happens to both windows and mac computers. But they are able to download these files and open it directly from their adobe reader though. It happens with all browsers for them...some of them have even called up mac support as well as adobe support and they were advised that it could be a problem with my forms that I find hard to believe since it opens in my computer and opens for a lot of other users. Its only a few users still having difficulties and I can't understand why!
    Also, I recently uploaded a dynamic file in acrobat file sharing. Why am I getting the below message when I have the latest adobe installed? I am able to open other dynamic forms in my browsers..why does this happen? I wonder if other user's problem is similar to this...not sure...
    To view the full contents of this document, you need a later version of the PDF viewer. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from etc...etc...etc..
    What can be the problem when the adobe version is already updated and also the plug-ins are updated too?? I have read a lot of links in adobe site itself which suggest various methods to test out the forms, browsers, plug-ins, etc..but this problem still happens to some users even after trying out these troubleshoots. Can someone explain if there are other limitations or solution for these users?

    I don't have an answer. However, since your question is not about Acrobat forms, but Designer forms, you need to ask in the LiveCycle forum that deals with Desginer forms.

  • Open doc URL: unable to open the report in same window

    Hi
    I'm trying to open a report using open doc url with "swindow=same" but still it opens in a separate window. This happens only when I use JAVA viewer. it works fine in ActiveX and HTML but I want this in JAVA viewer as i'm including this page in my JAVA application and it should open the report in the same window. I tried using "<a>URL</a>" and also target="_self" by HTML interpretation for that object but still the same problem. I'm unable to open the report in the same window by using JAVA viewer for Crystal Reports in info view. Please help me!!!
    Envirorment Details: Crystal Reports 2008 SP3, BOE XI R3 SP3
    regards
    Raghavendra.G

    I have tested that myself and It seems that HTML interpretation does not work with the Java viewer.
    I have also tried using a hyperlink containing javascript
    eg.
    javascript:window.location.href='http://www.sap.com'
    but the java viewer seems always to launch a new window before processing the command.
    I would recommend to open a case by SAP support ( httP://service.sap.com/support )

  • Can't download or open a fillable pdf with Windows 8.1   - desperately need help!

    My son is working on a Boy Scout Eagle project.  He recently got a computer with Windows 8.1.  I also have Windows 8.1 on my computer.  Neither of us are able to open the Eagle service project workbook fillable pdf form he already started and emailed to himself from his old computer or to download a new form from the BSA website.  The latest version of Adobe pdf reader (11) is installed on both our machines.  Here is the page from which we are to download the form:

    Can anyone help us?

    Have you tried opening the PDF directly from Adobe Reader? Windows 8.1 included Microsoft Reader, which is far less capable than Adobe Reader, and can't work with XFA-based PDF forms like the one you're trying to use.

  • Unable to open Clock or Settings with SIM in...

    Ever since trying to flash out the firmware (Green+*+3) and getting the proverbial "Phone unable to start..." error on subsequent boot I am unable to open neither my clock nor the settings preference on my e61i with the SIM in.
    If I take the SIM out I can open both the settings and the clock.
    I have tried upgrading the firmware (was already the latest but just refreshing it), hard reset, soft reset... you name it... everything I could find in this forum just does not work.
    Any idea how I can get all my features back? Kind of a pain to have to pull the SIM out to edit my SIP settings.
    Nokia E61i
    1.0633.22.05

    Just when I though things were back to normal, I am back in no settings land, unless I go off line.
    Also, thinking a full firmware refresh would take care of it I follow the instructions only to find myself with a "Unable to start... Please see the manufacturer" error after the firmware was Updater verified that the firmware was successfully loaded.
    Of course being in the states (yes, I have bought the phone in EU, people travel Nokia) I am now told the problem has to do with the somewhat unusual time change and since that phone is not for US market I am screwed.
    Very nice.
