PowerPoint presentation imported in Adobe Captivate pauses the lesson when it runs in browser
Hi,
I have a problem with my scorm (html export).
I’ve imported Microsoft PowerPoint presentation in Adobe Captivate (2019 version), and it works well, but when it runs in browser, it stops during a slide casually, and it pauses the lesson.
Do you know any trick to solve the problem?
I have just created a Powerpoint file using Microsoft Office 365 Pro Plus. When I try and import it into Articulate 2019, I get an error stating “Unable to import Microsoft Powerpoint presentation. The file may be damaged”. It seems to open perfectly well in Powerpoint. I renamed the file with a shorter name and no blank spaces in the title. Any advice what I need to do to import the entire set of slides into Captivate? I am falling at the first hurdle 🙁
Can importing be done in Adobe cloud only or can I use my laptop licence to use the functionality?
I got it to work by saving as an older version of Powerpoint 1997-2003.
Are taling about Articulate or Captivate? Captivate is not a could application at all.
I was having the same problem – using Microsoft Office 365 Pro Plus PowerPoint file, attempting to import into Captivate 2019. I kept getting the error message “Unable to import Microsoft PowerPoint presentation. The file may be damaged.” as well. I followed your tip of saving the file as an older version of PowerPoint – 1997-2003 and it worked for me that way as well.
Thanks for your help!
I never use PPT import myself. Since PPT slides are converted to movie slides, trying to repro what has been set up in PPT I suspect you have actions set up in PPT that need the user to click to advance a slide. Take out those actions in PPT, cannot be solved in Captivate because it is just doing what you asked for: playing the slide as you set it up in PPT.
Removed all click references in animation and it still locks up
No other idea, sorry about that. What was the choice when importing: Automatic?
