Windows 8.1 and Adobe Connect

Has anyone had any success with Adobe Connect and Windows 8.1? I am using the Adobe hosted version 9.1.2 of Connect. I have tried Internet Explorer 11(comes with 8.1 and you cannot downgrade), Chrome and FireFox. I can get into the meeting and do almost everything except the video will not work. I have the latest flash, have tried hardware acceleration and no acceleration, tried 2 different cameras just to make sure that wasn't it though they do work on a Windows 7 computer. I am just looking for anyone that has the video working on Windows 8.1.
Thanks
-Scott

We have notice this problem as well, but not only video - the audio doesnt work as well and you get randomly shut down.
The problem is in the Add-in (we have tried 2 latest versions), since you start the room with ?launcer=false both video and audio works fine.
I guess that Adobe development team will release a new add-in asap

Try using a different browser as a test.

I am using Adobe Reader X on a laptop with Windows Vista OS and Adobe Reader XI on an older laptop with Windows XP OS. While filling out the same form on each computer, I have found that I can save info on the older laptop, but not on the newer one. This is a big problem. I must be able to save on the newer computer. Do I need to buy a new computer with a more up-to-date OS? Please help.

Adobe Reader X can only save reader-enabled forms. Adobe Reader XI can save all forms.

I have Windows 8.1 and Adobe CS6 - acrobat just stoped working, won't open anything won't print to pdf. HELP!

Please help me!! I have Windows 8.1 and Adobe CS6 creative Suite. Adobe Acrobat x just quit, It won't open anything and it wont print to PDF. I need this for work!

Typically, the repair is done from the Control Panel>Programs & Features. In the future, try that route. Glad you found something that worked. When you do come to the forums for help, you may not get an immediate response, but may have to wait for someone familiar with your issue happens to check the forum, possibly after work. In any case, glad you have a working product again.

Problems with my Microsoft Surface 2 video Camera and Adobe Connect

Hi,
I have a new Microsoft Surface 2 that I am trying to get to work with Adobe Connect. I enable the camera and see the box for it in Adobe Connect but the box only has black in it and not an image. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
Dale

Does Preview on video pod shows the video feed from you camera.
Also make sure if it is being detected by Flash's Settings dialog.
you can check that by right clicking when meeting is opened and click on camera icon and check

Yosemite and Adobe Connect?

Since I switched to Yosemite on my MacBook Air, I cannot access Adobe Connect presentations. Suggestions?

Compelling? No. I just feel like I'm falling behind with my injury and lack of production. That's it.
I have a couple of clones. One on my partitioned 2nd internal and one on my USB External TB drive. I was going to do it the reverse way and boot up off the cloned internal if or when I needed 10.6.8 (Quark) and in case I f'd the whole system up with Yosemite. I probably shouldn't be making any major moves due to the pain remedies they've given me to get me to the next surgery (which is why I'm boring apple users with personal BS).
Anyway, I'll load Yosemite on my external. I'll partition it into 2 drives so I can keep 10.6.8 on there as well.
Does that sound like a better alternative? Like I said, I shouldn't be overhauling everything without 100% of my faculties (or whatever I normally have left).
Would you do anything different. Have you installed Yos yet? Is it stable if yes. My girlfriend has an Airbook with 10.7.5 and I was going to install Yos on it since I've just loaded GIMP and other free web/imaging software for her photography. Would you do the Airbook or just same advice and use her external clone drive?

Share My Screen and Adobe Connect

I have set up a meeting room but every time I click on share my computer screen it seems to think about it for 10 seconds and then returns to the same screen with the button in the middle.
I have also tried to go from the Share my Screen option in Indesign, where I enter my Adobe ID and then it comes up with the message Failed to Connect. Try Again.
I have installed the Connect Now Addin, and tested the connection using the troubleshooot which says that everything is working fine.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how to get this working?

If you are using ConnectNow, you should post this question here: http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobatdotcom/acrobatdotcom_connectnow
Adobe Connect and ConnectNow at Acrobat.com are two different products.

Accessibility and Adobe Connect

I have a class that is interested in watching an educational webinar I'm presenting in May. The class has deaf students and the teacher was wondering if Adobe Connect has captioning or any other options to make the webinar more accessible.
Thanks for your help!

There is a Closed Captions Pod here: http://www.adobe.com/products/adobeconnect/extend.html#3
You can find all the accesability info on Connect here: http://www.adobe.com/accessibility/products/compliance/index.html#adobeconnect8

Widgets and Adobe Connect

I have added the note and jigsaw widgets into my Captivate 7 virtual learning, but neither shows when the file is published in Adobe Connect. Does anyone know why?

The two that don't play are Captivate interactions: notes and jigsaw puzzle.

Apache Reverse Proxy and Adobe Connect

I need to expose Adobe Connect to internet. Our client uses it with SAP's Learning Solution. I achieved to expose main page but I couldnt expose Rooms. When I click Room link (http://adobe.mydomain.com/dene/?launcher=false) it opens but room not loading.
Any idea with this?

Ok I gave up Apache. Now the Adobe Connect Server is in DMZ! But still no rooms open!

Brand new laptop with windows 7 premium and adobe 9.3.3 wont load

Ok im lost I have a brand new computer fresh copy of win 7 premium and downloaded Adobe reader.9. It will not even start in windows. The cursor shows busy then just doesn't do anything not even a splash screen and will not even open if I click on a pdf file either also IE8 will not allow it to open in a browser period I changed permissions in Norton to allow it enabled pdf linker in IE8 but still get an error saying closing explorer due to security reasons. It also cannot find a solution. I've uninstalled repaired and nothing either. help!!!!!!
p.s. I seatched the forums but nothing about adobe not even loading or splash screen not even showing.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

Windows 8.1 and Cisco Connect Incompatable

I've upgrades a couple of PC's to Windows 8.1. Upon discovering the printer attached to my E4200 v1 by its USB port was not showing after the upgrade, I re-ran Cisco Connect to re-install the printer.
----At this point I'd like to say up front that the E4200 is running the latest firmware, and I am using the latest Cisco Connect available - albeit 2 years old.-----
Cisco Connect gets as far as the USB Printer connect button before displaying an error page telling me "our customer support can help" and giving a link to a support page that doesn't work. Typical Cisco I fear.......
Digging deeper, the Windows Device Manager is showing the system device SXUPTP driver has been blocked from loading, quote:
"The software for this device has been blocked from starting because it is known to have problems with Windows. Contact the hardware vendor for a new driver. (Code 48)
Click 'Check for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available."
Clicking on "Check for solutions" doesn't find one (typical Microsoft), and letting Windows search for a newer driver doesn't find anything either.
Both PC's, a laptop and a desktop, are the behaving the same - so not a PC issue. Both worked with Windows 8.0.
So what's the story Cisco? We need a Connect update, or at least a fixed driver - when will we see this?
Thnx.

Ok - no thanks to Cisco, I seemed to have found an answer. This is unofficial, do at your own risk. Creating a system restore point first would be sensible.
The clue is the Cisco SXUPTP driver is copyright to Silex. The E4200 must have a Silex chip on board to talk to the USB port, and the SXUPTP driver on the PC is what talks to the chip. I visited the Europe Silex site (the US site is harder to get through - it wants you to know which Silex chip you've got as a starting point) at:
http://www.silexeurope.com/en/home/support/productgroups/common-downloads/
I downloaded SX-Virtual Link 3.12.0 dated 29.05.2013 (05/29/2013 in US speak). This downloaded a zip file called s-33a3120a.zip. I unzipped the contents and ran Cosetup.exe to install. After a restart I now have a functioning SXUPTP driver 3.7.1.0. (Forget what the original Cisco one was - 3.5.0.0?)
Ran Cisco Connect again, and all proceeded as normal. Printer re-installed.
The Silex setup program also installs a piece of software called SX Virtual Link, which seems to offer some low level control over the link to the E4200 USB port. I haven't had a play with this.
So why did I have to hack my way through this? Why didn't Cisco post Windows 8 updates BEFORE it was released, let alone 8.1? NOT impressed.

Windows 8.1 and adobe flash player

I tried to listen to bbc iplayer as usual but this time it said I had to install adobe flash player. When folowing the links I then got the following message
"Flash Player is integrated with Internet Explorer in Windows 8. You do not need to install Flash Player."
I then found the following information
YOUR SYSTEM INFORMATION
Your Flash Version
flashversioninfo
Your browser name
browserInfo
Your Operating System (OS)
OSinfo
However I am still unable to listen to bbc iplayer as I continue to get the install/downlaod message. Any help in plain simple English idiot guidelines please, that can help an old foggy enjoy "sounds of the 60s"

BBC has acknowledged a problem with IE11. They're working on it, but the problem comes more from IE than the site.
"User-Agent Strings"
That doesn't mean a lot, I'm sure, but it's the root of your problems, and Flash Player has nothing to do with it.
Microsoft "rewrote" the User-Agent Strings for the abomination they call their latest and greatest browser (Read more here).
User-Agent Strings are what websites use to identify the browser you're using and provide the proper content for it's browser engine, like ActiveX stuff, and Flash or HTML5 video.
Thanks to the geniuses in Redmond, WA, the User-Agent Strings for IE11 (which has a Trident engine), ID it as either "Gecko" (Firefox) or "Webkit" (Chrome).
Trouble is: when the site the directs to the content for one of these two engines, the Trident engine in IE can't intepret it and the site then sees IE as an "unidentified" browser.
The problem with an unidentified browser is that the plug-ins in that browser aren't recognized either, so even though you're up to date, it says you need the latest Flash Player when you use IE11.
YouTube... has converted to HTML5 video so if it doesn't detect Flash Player, it can display HTML5 (MP4) video which requires no plug-in to play.
Facebook can't do that, because HTML5 doesn't apply to games... only video.
Microsoft has no plans to "fix" the mess they've created because they think it's a great idea to block you out of the websites you visit.
They recommend using "Compatibility View" and pretending that you're using an older verison of IE...
The Problem with THAT is that it's seen limited success, and you have to enable it for EVERY page that has problems... individually.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that, because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.
I've read several places that Opera works best with BBC, as long as it's in "turbo" (proxied) mode.
