Issues

|
|
Issue:
|
Can
I put the CD’s onto a network or a CD-Tower?
|
|
|
|
|
Solution:
|
The CD’s cannot be put onto a
server or a CD-Tower. The
program was designed to take the audio and video portions off
the CD. It was written with Macromedia Director
and makes use of QuickTime for the audio and video sections.

Issue:
|
None
of the movies will play.
|
|
|
|
|
Solution:
|
The program uses QuickTime to
display the movie and audio sections of the program. Be sure that QuickTime was installed to
the hard drive. A version
of QuickTime is included on the CD-Rom.

Issue:
|
The
screen will not print in the Portfolio.
|
|
|
|
|
Solution:
|
If the users go directly to the
Portfolio feature and are unable to print a screen, they should
print a screen from any chapter of the book then they return to
the Portfolio, they should be able to print.
For some reason, this seems to activate the print-o-matic
feature of the portfolio.

Issue:
|
The
scoring mechanism does not work in the Self-Test.
|
|
|
|
|
Solution:
|
If the scoring mechanism in the
yellow box is not visible, users should go to one of the exercises
in the self-test in the next chapter and then return to the original
chapter. This seems to activate the scoring mechanism.
