I created a button and set it up not to appear at 415 secs. Set my slide duration to 450 to be safe. Now the button won’t even appear. I reset it for 0 secs and it worked, 1 sec and it worked but it won’t work for my 415 secs. Any suggestions?

Based on the timeline screen shots, I cannot imagine why it would not work as you planned, but I never worked on slide duration that is that long. Could it be a bug in Captivate that is rarely seen since it’s also rare for lesson developers to have slide this long?
.
What preview did you use to test it? Slide preview? Project Preview? HTML5 in browser?

It has a video in the slide. The video needs to play the full way through before the next button can be clicked so that they can’t cheat.

Why do you need such a long slide? Do you have slide audio?  That is normally the only reason why you should want a slide that long. Personally I almost never have slides over 1 minute. It helps to keep audio clips small, since they need to be loaded On Enter for each slide.

Can you tell the exact version you are using( full number is mentioned under Help, About Captivate) and the OS?

Please post a screenshot of the Timeline of that slide, will make it easier to have an idea of the possible causes.
