Storyline Update 5 Crashes on Apple iPad - Fails Sumtotal LMS
Jul 22, 2014
We have chosen Storyline as a enterprise tool for Content development for Mobile Apple iOS and hosting in SumTotal 2013 as a LMS, we are publishing the courses as AICC and Publishing for iPad safari as a HTML5 output.
Issue:
When Loaded in the LMS the LMS is Launching the Course as Expected and from the Launch tab the course is launched on a Separate Tab when the user completes the course and closes the course the storyline content is causing a Safari Crash( Not a Visual Crash but Causes a Huge memory load and Other tabs are getting refreshed ) Causing hte Sumtotal Window to Fail resolving to the Launch Flow and Sumtotal Indicated that it is the Storyline that is causing the crash.

Sumtotal Case #[Case #00549076] – [Abbvie Inc] – [Priority 1] – [LMS]
