Adobe Captivate 6 not able to add Slide Notes

Having an issue with Adobe Captivate 6 with adding Slide Notes.

I can add them via Window>Slide Notes, but we cannot add them via clicking on the Properties tab of a slide then clicking on "Add Audio..." then clicking on the bottom "Captions & Slide Notes...".  It will not let us add any Slide notes at this point.

Please advise, as teammates are sure they used this second version in the past successfully.

Thank you.........

When you add notes through the Add Audio menu, you are adding them to an existing audio file and synching them up. Make sure your audio file is selected and you should be able to add your slide notes to the timeline.

Thank you for the reply.

The notes are just notes to the developer, so they don't have to sync with the audio.

Nonetheless, what do you mean by "Make sure your audio file is selected..."?

I went into my TIMELINE and clicked on the audio which opened the "Slide Audio" screen, then clicked on "Captions & Slide Notes..." and the Slide notes/Captions tabs show, but I cannot type anything into either of these areas......

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks again
