I have created a email in Fireworks and wanted to make a line of text a hyperlink that would take the viewer to a page on my website. I want to attach the final document to my email and sending it out.

1) design for no wider than 600px (otherwise it may not fit in email clients).
2) Slice up your newsletter design in segments for images and html areas with the slice tool.
3) add the <a href="http://www.yourwebsite.com">my website</a> link in one of the html areas.
4) export as generic html 4 code, and put the images in a separate folder.
5) upload all the images to your website's server in a folder (you cannot embed images in an email newsletter - they must link to externally hosted images).
6) change all the links in your html page to the ones that were loaded up on your server. For example, an image's source link would work out similar to this: <img src="http://www.yourwebsite.com/newsletter/image1.jpg" alt="alternate description of your image">
7) open the newsletter with working external images in Chrome or Firefox. Select the entire page content (ctrl-a), and copy it (ctrl-c).
8) create a new email in your mail client. Place the cursor in the body. Paste the newsletter (ctrl-v).
9) send your newsletter to hundreds of recipients, and get blacklisted by several email servers. Receive warning messages from your own hosting provider not to spam other users' email accounts.
10) realize this is too much of a hassle, and instead opt for a service such as MailChimp.
(The result in (9) depends on whether you sent out your newletter only to acquaintances, or not. But even then you might be warned off.)
Btw, many email clients turn off images in an email by default. You must provide the most important content as html, not as images.

  • When I try to same an image under the command 'save as' it will only let me save as file types 'firefox document' or 'all files' and when I try to look at them later they dont work. How can I save an image as the same file type it is on the web site?!

    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I updated to one of the firefox versions (Not sure which one it was)

    Thanks Alex, but sadly I already tried that. Neither .docx or .xlsx files show up in the content list. They both show as a Chrome HTML document so changing how Firefox addresses those doesn't help since it thinks its the same type of file. I don't think I can manually add files into the "Content Type" left side nav.

  • I had this video file and I was trying to flip it to a format that would work with iMovie.  It used to have the Quicktime image with it.  So, I assume it was a QT file.  But, somehow I've changed the file from a video to a folder.

  • I sure hope that the new imessenger doesn't look like the text messaging app, that would be a huge flop for apple. It has to look and feel like bbm or it will just suck.

    I sure hope that the new imessenger doesn't look like the current text messaging app, that would be a huge flop. I think I should look and feel like the bbm to make any kind of significant impact. Am I wrong?

    "iMessage in iOS 5 brings the functionality of iPhone messaging to all of your iOS devices―iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. Built right into the Messages app, iMessage allows you to easily send text messages, photos, videos or contact information to a person or a group on other iOS 5 devices over Wi-Fi or 3G. iMessages are automatically pushed to all your iOS 5 devices, making it easy to maintain one conversation across your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. iMessage also features delivery and read receipts, typing indication and secure end-to-end encryption."
    That is from the Apple site. If all your friends have an iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad you cang share with your friends, with is exactly like BlackBerry Messenger (BBM only works on BBs).
    And it does look just like the current message format. You can also find that at www.Apple.com

  • Hi, I'm a new Mac user and I want 10.8.2 but i can't get that unless I have i have 10.8.1 and I cant get that unless I have 10.8. Now I was wondering if anyone could provide me with a link that would allow me to download this version?

    Again, that's not a problem - if you purchase Mountain Lion through the App Store, it's been updated to 10.8.2 - and when there are other updates available, you can just download and install them as well.
    Just go to the App Store and purchase and install ML. Then run Software Update (Apple menu) to see if there are any updates available for your machine. I keep my System Preferences>Software Update prefs set to check automatically -
    Some people would rather check manually. No big deal, just buy it and install it.

    I was told that it takes about 10 years to outdate a MAC desktop, which I think is the case, but I have ran out of storage.  What is the best option?

    There is no one best for everyong.
    For most though: a dedicated boot drive. $105 Samsung 840 SSD is best in that category
    WD Black in 1 to 4TB (1-4 drives) for up to 16TB of storage.
    Sonnet Tempo Pro PCIe SSD card to boot from and boost SSD speed, as well as free up your drive bays for the other drives.
    2-4 backup sets. One or two used for TimeMachine. Two or three clones of your system. Even clone your critical data.
    And then there is external storage of unlimited size, capacity and expansion.
    Upgrade your system drive every year or two and move the current drive to use as a backup set.

  • Since March 2012 my iphoto 11 trash folder says that I have 13,346 photos in the iphoto trash, but there are no thumb nail copies in the viewer window.  I can delete additional photos but clicking on the "empty trash" button.  Any solutions?

    Since March 2012 my iphoto 11 trash folder says that I have 13,346 photos in the iphoto trash, but there are no thumb nail copies in the viewer window.  I can delete additional photos but clicking on the "empty trash" button. 
    My system trash finally emptied when I discovered "trash it!" is not longer supported by the most recent osx.  Then I found an updated version of Onyx that did work with that trash emptying problem.
    I have a total of 5,723 photos in my library.  A macdevelopers group recently started suggesting a multi library manager for iphoto to overcome some kind of library quota limitations with iphoto as opposed to "more advanced" photo handling, storing and editing programs.  If I went to a mult library manager for iphoto would that cure the apparent incongruent data retrieval problem in iphoto 11 regarding 13,346 phantom photos that will not securely delete?
    Are there any other possible solutions out there? 

    Try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Lion and Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE 1: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    NOTE 2:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • I am trying to put sound fonts into a playable format in garageband. I followed all of the instructions on the sound font help page for Garageband, but I still cannot play the sounds, or get them to show up. Any suggestions?

    I am trying to put sound fonts into a playable format in garageband. I followed all of the instructions on the sound font help page for Garageband, but I still cannot play the sounds, or get them to show up. Any suggestions?

    Sorry, I was confused by your profile signature showing "GarageBand (Mac) '11".
    It is very similar in the newest GarageBand 10.0.2: 
    Enable Audio Units in the GarageBand Preferences > Audio/Midi.
    Create a software instrument track.
    Show the Smart Controls and click the button.
    In the Info panel scroll, to make the Audio Units brick visible and click the "Instrument" control.  Select "AuInstrument > Apple > DLSMusicDevice" and click it, to open the settings.
    This should show you a panel, where you can select a Sound Bank. Does that show your sound font?

  • Hi all. I want to make audio chat with my brother. I use iChat on my MBP. He uses Gtalk on his windows PC. The problem is that the audio icon is gray. Is there anyway? Can iChat make voice chat with Gtalk on windows?

    Hi all. I want to make audio chat with my brother. I use iChat on my MBP. He uses Gtalk on his windows PC. The problem is that the audio icon is gray so I cannot start audio chat. Is there anyway? Can iChat make voice chat with Gtalk on windows or not? I am confused.

    HI,
    You need to satisfy several things along the way
    Account type
    You need to have a Jabber or Google mail Account your self.
    If you have a Google Mail Account then it needs the "Talk" option Enabled in your Google account Settings ( A Facebook with "Chat" enabled is also a  valid Jabber ID to use in iChat).
    Connection Method
    This is about which apps can connect to which apps for Video ro Audio to work.
    iChat Video when using a Jabber account is iChat to iChat Only.
    iChat connects using a process called SIP (Session Initiation Protocol)
    Jabber based Apps if they have  an A/V module connect using protocol called Jingle.
    Needless to say Google do their own version of this that is written in to the web Browser Plugin that allows Video Chats (there are PC and Mac versions), and in the PC app called GoogleTalk.
    However it is also not that compatible with other Jabber apps.
    See Jingle here
    This claims, now, that Google had a hand in writing the Protocol.
    Also in the "Clients Supporting Jingle" list many more version of Google products are mentioned with extended info. (it suggests that someone at Google has been editing the page).
    Can iChat make voice chat with Gtalk on windows or not?
    The specific answer to this to be clear is NO.
    We are talking about different Apps (or web Browser Plugins) using different Internet Protocols that are not compatible.
    The simplest thing is to get the Web Browser Plugin (However there can be issues with the  Flash Plugin)
    At one time Google used Flash to do Video Chats and it would seem their Plugin is very close to this part of Flash.
    See the Known Issues and the "Google Talk Plugin Disables iSight On Mac" item.
    Options
    Use a Web Browser yourself with the Plugin.
    Use a Flash Base Site such as MeBeam  (Flash has to be enabled in your Browser and the instructions are simple on the page)
    Try to find a Jingle capable Mac Jabber Client (app) ( I have not found one).

  • This month I downloaded the newest version of PAGES.  Now when I try to open the documents made with this program it says "You need a newer version of PAGES to open this document."  I go to the App Store and says it has downloaded.  What to do?

    This month I downloaded the newest version of PAGES.  The documents I have typed using this App will now not open and the message says-"You need a newer version of PAGES to open this document.  Could anyone help me with this please.  Thanks.

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2.2 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed over 110 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    You can add the icon of the missing Pages on your Dock or open Pages from the Apple menu > Recent Items list.
    Or you can archive Pages 5 so that it doesn't automatically open.
    If you are unhappy about this review/rate Pages 5 in the App Store.
