Does anyone else have an issue with the Assets screen not closing? I have a project open now that I need to save, but the Assets screen will not close.

Any suggestions?

I am on Win10 with Captivate 9.0.2.437 - My program does not freeze up but I have issues here as well.

My screens indicate that everything downloaded successfully and were placed in assets but when you go there... not showing up.

If I look in the actual file location, it is there, but does not show up in Captivate under assets.

It worked for a little while and then quit. you can see in this image that Jacob downloaded 100% but he is not in with the others that did come through. It has been several months since it has worked.

I have cleared the prefs and did the CaptivateUI.dll thing but neither helped.

At this point, I just login directly to eLearning Brothers and grab what I want.

Honestly, I like that better than doing it thru Captivate - I have better real estate for viewing and control over where my stuff gets stored.

Just my 2¢

My workaround is similar; but I think we are paying way too much for there NOT to be an answer . At least, address it. I would like less steps, since I am developing a lot of content lately. I've had to grab it from the website and it is adequate. But there's a whole piece of Captivate not functioning correctly.....and crickets from Adobe.

My question is actually a bit different. I can close out the Assets window, but cannot access the items from the media/characters dialogue box. I select the drop down to click on Assets and the entire Captivate program freezes! It's been doing this for about a month or so. Before, I could click on Assets fine.

Thanks,

Tess

This is 2017 and I am still having this issue. Can someone at Adobe please respond? Anytime I open up the Assets screen it freezes. I cannot close it unless I use ctrl+alt+del to close Captivate. Pressing escape does not work and I am pretty sure I don't have any dialog screens open because the screen freezes even when I have not downloaded any assets. Please can you provide a fix?

I am having this problem as well. It was fine and now each time I press the Assets button after downloading, it freezes up.

Thank you,

Tess

Have you tried hitting the ESCAPE key?

Oddly enough I am having the same problem. The obvious thing to do is click Close or the X to close the window. Neither of those work, nor the escape key.

There may be another dialog box open somewhere that you cannot see.  Does hitting the Escape key repeatedly work?
