Why is slide showing up blank in preview and publish, but not filmstrip view?

Hello,
I was having the problem I described in another post where data that was masked flips back to the unmasked value- however, this time I couldn't figure out any solution.
So, I tried copying the background image, putting it in an image editor, then pasting it back into Captivate and adding my highlight boxes (Captivate 3). It worked in Preview mode for a good hour, then I published and that particular slide showed up with white (no bkgrd. image) but you could still see the highlight box and mouse movement.
I shut down captivate then restart in preview mode and the same thing happened- worked until I published then that particular slide had problems again.
Any ideas? I'd appreciate them much. I feel like I've had every problem in the world with Captivate in the last month!

Absolutely confused... I did not suspect that my suggestion would lead to such inexpected behaviour.
I'll have to think more about it, which is difficult since I can't reproduce your problem.
Your idea to move the files from within Elements tells us something.
Maybe examining the log file could give some hints about the failures of Elements in the process.

That did cross my mind earlier today and when checking iCloud found that it had an old ID. I logged out and then in again on my current ID. It still doesn't sync.

Jigsaw puzzle shows up weird in preview and publish. Help!

I'm using a trial version of Captivate 8, and I added a Jigsaw Puzzle interaction, with no funky settings. I didn't resize or even move the interaction either. It's sitting in the middle of my slide.
However, whenever I preview or publish, the many of the pieces of the puzzle are scattered off-screen and I can't even see them, let alone move then in order to complete the puzzle.
Here's a sample of my preview (the puzzle is supposed to have 16 pieces). Doesn't look any better in the "1024" view.
Did anyone else encounter this? Or know how to fix it?

Interesting...you're right! I can finally see all of the pieces.
I wonder if there's a way to get rid of that hint picture though. I unchecked the "hint" box but it's still there.
Thanks!

Why exporting slide show to QuickTime raises contrast and darkens images?

I've been creating slide shows in iPhoto, then exporting them to QuickTime to create QT.mov files which contain dissolve transitions and later add soundtracks using QTPro. Lately, when I've exported the images to QuickTime, the resulting images in the QT.mov file are invariably darker and more contrasty than the originals in iPhoto; in many cases unacceptably dark.
It appears that QuickTime modifies the images when it exports them.
I've experimented in PhotoShop, and discovered that to make the original Jpeg image match the modified QT version I have to increase the "Contrast" slider +11, and decrease the "Brightness" slider about -8 to -12 (in whatever units PhotoShop sliders are calibrated in). This is an enormous amount of change to the images! Since darkening the image increases the color saturation, every image has some color shift. Black skin tones shift to a heavy red/brown, and shadow details block up unacceptably.
It seems that QuickTime is "auto correcting" the images; automatically applying the sort of tweaking that makes a lot of snapshots look "snappier".
Of course, I've already spent hours correcting my images in PhotoShop, and they're just perfect (IMHO) when I feed them into iPhoto.
iPhoto itself doesn't change anything.. the images are unmodified during the importing, editing and preview of the slideshow; it's only when it's exported to QuickTime that the images are ruined.
I'm hoping that there's some knowledgable soul out there in CyberSpace who knows a way to turn this hidden "auto-correcting" feature off.

iPhoto can make two different types of slide show movies. It would help to know which you're making.
One is made via the File/Export to QuickTime movie and makes a 4 track file with a simple fade effect. These use the Photo-JPEG codec.
The other is a 30 fps "video" using H.264 video codec via the "Share" menu.
A third method (rarely used) is to Export to iDVD. This makes an absurdly high data rate MPEG-4 video. This is also found under the Share menu.
The MPEG-4 video codec also includes an "automatic" gamma correction feature which compensates for the gammas difference between Mac's and PC's.
Try one export to iDVD. Include your audio track prior but use a high quality (.aiff) sound file. No need to actually "burn" the DVD. You can even close iDVD after it opens. You'll find the new movie in your Users Movie folder.
Open it with QT Pro and export to a new .mov file. Adjust the data rate to something more reasonable and add some audio compression.
If the colors still look too dark you can use the built in Filters in the Export dialog. You can adjust B&C or HSL or even use ColorSync Profiles that can help correct the image quality (if needed).

Background is blank when previewed and published

Ok - I am getting really irritated! The background of my
slide is there when editing, but when I preview or publish the
project, the background is white. All the captions and mouse
movements are there but no background! What do I do?

Use count is 1. There is nothing covering the slide. This is
only happening with one slide. I even tried copying and pasting the
background from another slide on to the one that isn't working

Works in preview and IE but not Firefox

Hi All,
I have a 6 page prototype in Fw with each page containing mutliple types of behaviors (rollovers, swaps, nav bar). They all work great in "preview and IE". However, in Firefox I have 3 out of 4 rollovers on the same page that do not work. I have tried both rollover and image swap. All the other slice/behaviors on all the other pages work in "preview, IE and Firefox"?
Thanks,
Randy

Hi Linda,
When I exported the project all of the pages worked correctly. I was able to show the prototype with everything working. I later rebuilt the page from scratch and everything worked in preview mode as well as once exported.
Thanks for the response!

Jpeg shows up when previewing in safari, but not when viewed after uploading to browser. CS5

Hi, I'm afraid I don't know the jargon as someone else has set this up for me and I just make new pages based on the templates.
But I've just uploaded 9 new pages all with 9 small images linked to the corresponding 9 large images. All of them work except one, where I changed the image a couple of months afterwards. So now the 9 small images and it's corresponding large image come up with a blue question mark in Safari, and blank in Firefox. However when you save and click on Preview in Safari etc. it all works fine.
I've checked the jpeg names have no spaces and no caps. They're exactly the same length as the other jpeg names within that set of pages; nothing longer than 10 letters or numbers. Also they're both RGB as someone mentioned that could be a problem.
Everything else works fine in the pages and all links work.
Hope someone can help.
Thanks

One more thing I noticed is the filename convention you've used.
It looks like this:
<tr align="left">
    <td><a href="evasion01.html"><img src="works/evasion/evasion55.jpg" alt="" width="55" height="40" border="0" align="top" /></a><a href="joy01.html"></a></td>
    <td><a href="evasion02.html"><img src="works/evasion/evad55.jpg" width="37" height="55" border="0" align="top" /></a></td>
    <td><a href="evasion03.html"><img src="works/evasion/evasion255.jpg" alt="" width="36" height="55" border="0" align="top" /></a></td>
    <td><a href="evasion04.html"><img src="works/evasion/evasion355.jpg" alt="" width="55" height="44" border="0" align="top" /></a></td>
</tr>
<tr align="left">
    <td><a href="evasion05.html"><img src="works/evasion/evasion155.jpg" alt="" width="55" height="31" border="0" align="top" /></a></td>
    <td><a href="evasion06.html"><img src="works/evasion/evasion455.jpg" alt="" width="55" height="35" border="0" align="top" /></a></td>
    <td><a href="evasion07.html"><img src="works/evasion/evasion555.jpg" alt="" width="30" height="55" border="0" align="top" /></a></td>
    <td><a href="evasion08.html"><img src="works/evasion/evasion851.jpg" alt="" width="55" height="37" border="0" align="top" /></a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td><a href="evasion09.html"><img src="works/evasion/evasion755.jpg" alt="" width="33" height="55" border="0" /></a></td>
I'd recommend that you give a proper order for filenames - they make your job easier - i.e. evasion01.html could hold evasion01.jpg as main image filename and evasion01_t.jpg as thumbnail image filename. This varies with different people but this is the methodology I'd use. Or another easy way of doing it is to put your main images into works/evasion folder with filenames like 01.jpg, 02.jpg, etc.. And put the thumbnails into works/evasion/thumbs with filenames like 01.jpg, 02.jpg, etc...

Why has battery percentage been enabled for iPad and iPhone, but not iPod Touch?

iPhones have had the option to enable the battery percentage reading in the top right corner of the screen since they came out, and iPads later got that ability. Yet throughout their times, updates, and models, iPod Touch users never have had that option. And that tiny battery icon can be deceiving. That icon on my iPod Touch 5G looks like I have 50% left, yet I plug it in, and suddenly, its charging just with a red end, meaning 20% or less remaining. Apple... PLEASE give iPod Touches the option to torn that percentage on at the top right corner of the screen, even if it's only to the nearest 5 percent, although one app I have tells me exact battery percentage, so iPods have that capability, just please put it in the settings! I like the convenience of that reading at the top, rather than opening an app every time I need a battery reading! PLEASE Apple, it's time to let us get the percent! Also, adding a built-in FM Radio receiving antenna for on-the-go FM Radio support wouldn't be a bad idea in the next generation if iPod Touch!

It can be added but it is inaccurate. Large fluctuation in % battery will be seen with load changes.

Why are slide show images less sharp than preview images?

Dear Aperture users,
as documented in the manual and on Apple's support pages, Aperture 3 uses the preview images for its slide show. However, when I compare the quality of my preview images in full-screen mode with the quality of the slide show images, the preview images clearly look sharper.
Apparently, Aperture's slide show does not simply use the preview images as documented, but applies some sort of "adjustment", resulting in less crisp looking images. Since I haven't found any satisfying answer yet, my questions are:
1). What exactly is the adjustment that slide show applies to the preview images?
2). Can I somehow tweak this adjustment, say, with a terminal command?
Best regards,
Dirk61.

An swf file does not show up in the website even though you can see it in preview and publish

I created a swf file from a mov file in Adobe Encoder. Thge movie shows up in Muse in both the preview and publish mode.
Does not show up in the webstie. The html file is in the assets foder and the swf file is in the image folder and the space is blank.
When i encoded the .mov file I saved it as FLV. Web 1920 x 1080, 16 x 9 5.4 Mbps is the setting for Flash Web Video when i encoded the file.

AppleTV: How can I see what song is playing if I am viewing my photos in slide show mode on Apple TV and streaming from my iTunes?

How can I see what song is playing if I am viewing my photos in slide show mode on Apple TV and streaming music from my iTunes?
Thanks.

Thank you Winston. I guess we need to ask that this feature gets added at least as an option in an upcoming release. When someone is using shuffle, it helps to know what is playing while viewing pictures.
Where is my Apple request button when one needs it ? :-) Cheers, C

Can a slide show be created in photoshop elements 11 that can be viewed on an ipod?

can a slide show be created in photoshop elements 11 that can be viewed on an ipod?

You can create a sideshow in PSE but I don't know anything about ipod so can't tell you whether it can be viewed in it.
Just for interest sake, what does an ipod do? I thought it was mainly for the music and speech based stuff but you seems to suggest otherwise.
For an old tutorial of creating SIDESHOW SEE THIS VIDEO:

Good luck.

Greetings;
This seems to an ongoing issue (see related discussion link). We've been experiencing the same update lag since last Friday. The new additions to the Collection appear and are accessible in both the iPad and iPhone applications, but even though they additions appear in "Quick View", the material doesn't appear in the Collection itself. Apple is aware of the issue and is investigating. All the best...
