UPDATE (4/27/2023): The macOS update for Captivate 11.8.1 is finally here! It's time to update.

 

We are proud to announce the latest update to Adobe Captivate 2019 – version 11.8.1, now available for Windows and macOS operating systems. CP 11.8.1 now supports macOS Ventura.

 

This update brings enhanced not only security and bug fixes, but also an exciting new addition - new voices for text-to-speech. 

 

Adobe Captivate now offers a total of 14 voices, including 10 in English - seven US English voices (Ashley, James, Julie, Kate, Mark, Paul, and Sophie) and three British English voices (Adam, Alice, and Bridget). In addition, the update also includes French, Spanish, and Korean voices. 

 

These voice enhancements provide users with a higher quality and greater variety of voices for use in Adobe Captivate. The update also ensures long-term compatibility with the latest Windows and macOS operating systems.

      Was the ability to transition between slides purposely removed with this update? It's no longer on the Timing tab uder Slide Duration.

      Slide transitions were based on SWF technology, reason why they were taken out in this version. Although some of them still seemed to work when publishing to MP4, they never worked for a publish to HTML5.

      Since publishing to mp4 is still an option & transitioning does work with this feature, it's shortsighted for Adobe to have removed it.

      Hi @tenii28196754rgqa , re: the "broken update button", could you be a bit more specific? do you have a screenshot by any chance?

      Yes. I downloaded the new version. It seems to be the correct version. It's just confusing to have an update button in the application that doesn't work. Plus, I just hate filling out all that info about me and my company. Again.

      Hi @Steve28195073y0ph Mac users cannot install the new voices. These new voices are Windows-only. We shall soon release the update for Mac. The new voices shall be available then. For now, the updates and the new voices are Windows-only.
