Unable to publish
May 01, 2012
Hi,
I have published files before without a problem. However, I've been trying to publish this one particular file for the last 2 days. It's only 48 slides with 4 small engage slides. I'm wondering if my audio source files are the problem since they vary in origin (recorded in Engage, PowerPoint and imported .wav files). With each attempt to publish, it seems to be working then when it gets to slide 48 of 48, the following error message appears:
"Articulate Presetner has encountered a problem and nees to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
Thank you for any suggestions.

Hi Donna!
Sorry to hear about the trouble you're experiencing. I'd recommend taking a look at this troubleshooter to try and uncover some possible reasons and solutions. If you're still not having any luck, please feel free to submit a case to our support team for further assistance. Thanks!
Hi Peter,
Thank you for your prompt reply and the troubleshooter link. I'm trying the PowerPoint 2010/2007 recommendation for not being able to publish a specific presentation.
I'll let you know the outcome...
Sounds good, Donna. Thanks!
Hi Peter,
No luck. I was able to publish the presentation without any of the audio. At least I confirmed that the issue is with the audio source files. If I have to re-create the narration for all 48 slides, it'll take time I don't have.
One thing I discovered is that the some of the Engage slides had their narration created in Engage while other narrations were done in Presenter. Should this matter when it comes to publishing? Also, other audio came from .wav files that were imported (not in Engage slides). I'm at a loss.
Thanks for any further suggestions.

Sure thing, Donna. And thanks for your patience. Someone should be contacting you shortly, and I'll continue to keep my eye on it as well.
Happy to report that issue is resolved. I ended up publishing portions of the presentation at a time to identify the "trouble spots". Turns out the issues were with the audio files and their locations.
Thanks for your support.

Really glad to hear it, Donna! Thanks for checking in.
