Can I launch an application from keynote?

We have a proprietary application that we want to launch directly from our presentation - can't seem to do it from a hyperlink...any other ways to launch?

Two options for you:
Make sure the other app is open before you start the Keynote Presentation and then press command-tab to change to it. Then you can command-tab back to your Keynote Presentation.
In the Keynote Preferences>Slideshow, make sure that you have the Allow Exposé, Dashboard and others to use screen checked and then you can use Exposé to switch apps.

Can I launch a DVD from keynote?

I'm doing a presentation and as part of the presentation I need to show a video. The video is on DVD. Is there a way to launch the video directly from keynote without having to minimize keynote and open DVD player and go through all the steps to start the video?

Apparently, there's no such option. One reason is, when you launch a DVD, the Keynote presentation will have to give way to another application (DVD Player, or whatever you use to play back DVDs). So, there's no way to seamlessly integrate a DVD videostream into a Keynote slideshow.
However, you can convert the DVD into a video file using a free converter, for instance HandBrake (http://handbrake.fr/downloads.php). Then you just insert the video inside the Keynote slide, and set it to play back on click.
There are a few advantages to converting the DVD into a video-file: 1) you can convert only a fragment that is needed; 2) you have full control over the quality and file-size; 3) the video will be integrated into the presentation, so once it is over, you can proceed with the next slide without minimizing Keynote.
Note: when converting the DVD video with HandBrake, use MP4 as output format and Mpeg4 encoder. An easy way to check if the result is correct is to open the resulting file with QuickTime. If QT plays it back and it's OK, then the file will also be played back in Keynote

Can you Launch External Applications From Within InDesign Ebook?

Hi all,
I was wondering if it is possible to open an external application from within an ebook (created with InDesign) e.g. click on a link and have an external ssh client open up for instance?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Regards,
RG

It's possible to include hyperlinks in an InDesign file and export them in an EPUB file. Since I'm not familiar with working with SSH clients (in fact, I just had to Google it to have a clue what you're talking about), is this something that can be invoked in a standard URL format? If so, you could probably include it.
The next issue is whether the link would work. The link couldn't be used directly in any eBook reader I know of, but at least the iBook on an iPad or iPhone would switch to to Safari to let you follow a URL to its destination. But I don't think that's possible on most eBooks.

Can not launch swing application from Java Web Start 1.6.0_37

I have a dynamic generated jnlp file from a serlvet. When I used Java Web Start to start the swing application, it failed. The exception showed

I used janela to validate the generated jnlp file. It was valid. I also checked the tomcat access log, it showed that the Test-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar file was accessed correctly (with a 200 return code).
Can anyone help me what was the problem?
Thanks,

Can I launch an application from website?

I am trying to design a website, which I do not want to publish on the web, just on my own computer. I would like to establish hyperlinks to applications and documents, which when clicked open the applcation or document itself. Idelly, I would like the website I design to become my desktop, giving me customised access to applications and files plus a splash of humour and widgetry. I doubt that os x is going to let me use a webpage as a desktop, but, if I run safari on opening, is there a way that I can achieve my ambition? All thoughts and suggestions welcome. Best. John Whiteman

Funny, alot of Lion users would like to go the other way. Launchpad is an iOSesk application launcher built into lion.
to go about coding such a monstrosity is over my head

My Dock is gone and I can not launch an application from my desktop.

I need to recover my dock and be able to launch files from my desktop. What happened and how do I restore it.
Also, when I attach my power cord the light turns orange and the battery icon shows that it is not chargine.
This all happened when I opened my screen this morning. I tried shutting down and it does not fix it.

Hi.
To recover your Dock, try this: From the Finder Menu bar, Go/Home/Library/Preferences and move com.apple.dock.plist to the Desktop
Then, from he Finder window go to Macintosh HD (or whatever your startup disk is named)/System/Library/CoreServices and doble click the Dock application.
Good Luck.

How can I remove some themes from Keynote??

How can I remove some themes from Keynote??

What a co-incidence... I just deleted those same goodies. They were in /Library/Application Support/Keynote-folder on my machine. I just deleted the whole folder, cause there seemed to be nothing more but those downloaded files. And Keynote worked great afterwards. There seemed to be another folder for iWork09, which is not to be removed.

Can't download an application from the net because of an apple security block

MacBook Pro C0*******3UG 1TB Os 10.9.5
I can't install an application from the net because of some Apple security block. How do I remove or get around the block? The instructions in help say to double click the application and all that happenes is that I get the same window saying I can't install.
<Edited By Host>

It's usually not necessary to change any security settings, and as a rule you shouldn't.
To make a one-time exception to the security policy, follow these instructions. They apply to Installer packages and other installable items as well as applications.
Some defective software installers may fail when Gatekeeper is enabled. Think carefully about whether you really want to run such an installer. If you do, temporarily change the setting to
Allow applications downloaded from: Anywhere
When the installation is done, revert the setting.
Some applications that don't have a developer signature have been reported not to launch the first time unless Gatekeeper is disabled. The warning message from Gatekeeper is that the application "is damaged and can’t be opened." Again, think carefully about whether you want to trust the application. If you do, disable Gatekeeper as above, launch the application, and then re-enable Gatekeeper. If you still get the warning, delete the application.

If this app is iPhone compatible and is now in your iTunes App section all you need to do is sync your iPhone to your computer and select that app to sync to your iPhone.

Your phone is carrier locked to a carrier other than the one you are trying to use.
It was apparently hacked to unlock it prior to your attempt to update. Updating has re-locked it to the original carrier.
Contact them and find out what their policy is.

You will not lose everything on you phone if you backup prior to updating. You can do it maunaully (simply by syncing your phone with itunes) but when you update iTunes will prompt you do back up your phone anyways. After you've updated you can reload everything on to your phone with the itunes back up.

Every time I restart my mac air some applications like calendar and Microsoft word automatically starts, how can I stop such applications from starting when ever I restart my mac?

One thing to check: when shutting down or restarting, there is a checkbox in the shutdown/restart dialog which asks whether you want currently open applications to open at startup.

Can only launch editor once from elements 11, then have to re boot.

Can only launch editor once from Elements 11, then must re boot.

Please launch Editor once directly from its exe keeping Ctrl+Alt+Shift keys pressed. Delete the settings file when prompted.
See if this helps.
The exe can be located at - C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 11\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe
Thanks
