** Note: There is a known issue where playback of older impaticized content, using Java versions 1.6.0_10-rc and newer, does not work. The impaticized content will not play back and students will see a gray box or a white screen rather than the impaticized content.

The best solution to resolve this issue is to re-impaticize your content using the latest release of Impatica 4.0.2 (available in CIRT). Please contact CIRT for assistance with re-impaticizing your content.
