CM External Hard Drive
The following picture shows what files should be in the ROOT folder of the CM External Hard
Drive. If there are files other than what is listed, they should be moved to another folder that is
not part of the CM Application. For example, if you want to use the CM to backup other files,

F. How do I repair and compress my CM core database?
If you install an update and CM updater keeps telling you that a Pre-Login task is found,
but it keeps failing and you are unable to proceed to the next update, you may have a
database problem.
Contact your Brigade POC or email [email protected] for help to repair and
compress your database.
G. Apache OpenOffice conflicts with MS Office
Some computers are running OpenOffice instead of MS Office. The CM needs MS
Office installed in order to view the lesson materials. Even after uninstalling
OpenOffice problems persist and CM does not open documents correctly and MS Office
File Fix utility does not seem to help.
1. After uninstalling OpenOffice you need to re-establish the file association to
MS Office.

Enter (or click OK). Note that there is a space before the slash:
a. For Word, type: winword /r

H. General Firewall notes
In order for the CM Tech support team to provide assistance via remote access, they
will need to use the TeamViewer application. By default TeamViewer uses only the
outgoing port 80 (HTTP) - no firewall configuration is necessary. Alternatively you can
open port 5938 (TCP) for outgoing connections.

A. CM v2 cannot find the CPS IR receiver while CPS work fine with the receiver
If the CPS clickers do not work, it might be because the eInstruction Device Manager is
holding on to the IR receiver and not sharing with other programs.
NOTE: Newer eInstruction software has a different icon on Windows Status Bar.
New icon
, Old icon
Solution:
1. Click on the eInstruction Tools Icon
Fig. 10 – Windows Status Bar
2. Click on eInstruction Device Manager
Fig. 11 – Device Manager Menu
3. Click on the CPS IR receiver icon
Fig. 12 – Device Manager Icon
4. Click on the Disconnect button
22
JROTC Curriculum Manager Troubleshooting Guide v2
Fig. 13 – Device Manager Disconnect button
5. CPS IR receiver icon changes from green check to red X
Fig. 14 – Device Manager Status
6. Now eInstruction Device Manager is not holding on to the CPS IR receiver and
can be used with other applications. Start CM v2 and if you skipped the CPS IR
detection CM v2 will try to redetect it when you start a CPS question
CM v2 currently support ONLY CPS IR receiver and clickers. It does
NOT support the RF receiver and clickers yet.

D. PowerPoint error “Some controls on this presentation can’t be activated”
When navigating to slides with flash content you get an error “Some controls on this
presentation can’t be activated. They might not be registered on this computer.”
You must install the latest Flash plug-in to fix this.
CM Startup menu >Required Plug-ins > install Flash under Adobe and follow the
installation prompts.
E. When I launch CM Reports and Question Editor or when there’s a Pre-login
task found I get an error
The most common cause of this error on Windows XP and Vista is missing the .NET
framework 3.5 Service Pack 1. The .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 can be
downloaded from Microsoft. A link to that download is found under the CM Startup
menu > Required Plug-ins.
If the .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 is installed and you still have issues
launching reports and question editor, your CM core database might need to be
repaired and compressed. See page 19 for help.

JROTC Curriculum Manager Troubleshooting Guide v2
F. Antivirus and internet security programs
The preferred Antivirus program to use is McAfee which you can download from the
JROTC Portal. Login to the Portal and then click on Automation>Download Center.
AVG
If you are using the AVG Antivirus program, it may cause CM to run slow; slides may
take a long time to load. This happens because AVG actively scans each file (slide,
document, audio, movie, etc…) as it is opened, which delays its display in CM.
To resolve this issue:
1. Open AVG.
2. Open Link Scanner and turn off the settings.
3. Open Resident Shield and turn off the settings.
Norton
If you use the Norton Antivirus program, it may delete the CM Start menu
(CM_Start.exe) off the CM drive. This happens when the new SONAR Norton
component mistakenly identifies the startup menu as a security threat and removes it.
To resolve this issue:
1. Restore the CM_Start.exe from Norton quarantine.
2. Make sure the box exclude from future scans is checked.
G. Wireless Troubleshooting

J. Microsoft PowerPoint 2013 Issues
Microsoft PowerPoint 2013 has a problem displaying slides with active content (videos,
animations, etc.). Until Microsoft releases a fix for the PowerPoint 2013 we recommend

the FileFix Utility after the PowerPoint 2010 installation.
