URL Links not working

I have created URL links in a PDF ebook using acrobat.  The links  work just fine in Acrobat.  When I try to click on the link in ADE 2.0 some of the links aren't recognized, meaning they're not clickable.  Is there a certain setting that should be used in acrobat to ensure that links are clickable in ADE.  It's important that they work in ADE because once DRM is added to the file, it will only be readable in ADE.
Thanks in advance for any help

Might be worth checking on the Acrobat forum.
Also probably worth seeing if they work on v1.7.2 (*2), on Sony Reader(*1), and on ereader devices and tablet ereader apps such as Bluefire.
It could easily be a bug in ADE2.0, there are very many of them. 
Lots of people including me still use 1.7.2 for that reason; but you may not have the choice of what to expect your readers to have.

(*1) you can use Sony Reader; free download from Sony intended to run with Sony eReaders but works quite happily without.  I prefer ADE1.7.2 to Sony Reader. https://ebookstore.sony.com/download/
~~~~~~~~~
(*2) There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0 (and 2.0.1).  Try replacing ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.
(You can have them both installed at once if you like.)
Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.

The forum software is sometimes corrupting the link above.  There shouldn't be a blank in 'editio ns.html'.  The following redirects to the same page: http://tinyurl.com/diged172
Some people have found ADE trying to upgrade automatically. 
It appears (not 100% sure) that if you install ADE2.0 as a new install (not as an upgrade) that your 1.7.2 will continue to run.
Probably best to say no if 2.0.x installation asks if you want to migrate your library.

    Clear Safari, close Safari and reset the iPad.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data.
    In order to close apps in iOS 7, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Target field in Text URL Link not working.

    I'm working with CS6 creating a web-site for a client. The client has giving me a list of Publications to display on a particuter page, which is an overview of all the books that my cleint has published. The details for each book are on individual pages, which I've already created and have URL's for. The idea is to look at the overview page and if you desire, select a book title to view additional details about that particular book.
    For this Overview page I've created a classic text block that contains several URL links.
    Example: "This is information about book 1: URL LINK to BOOK 1 title.  Great Press Book Publisher, 2010.
    This is information about book 2: URL LINK to BOOK 2 Title . Great Press Book Publisher, 2011.
    This is information about book 3: URL LINK to BOOK 3 Title. Great Press Book Publisher, 2012.
    This is information about book 4: URL LINK to BOOK 4 title. Great Press Book Publisher, 2013."
    I've placed the URL links for each respective book in the highlighetd text area for that book, represented by the BLUE text in the above example. The overview page as well as the individual book pages are publised and in my domain on-line.
    Everything works fine with one exception. When I select a book link in the overview page, I want to have a New Browser window appear for that books individual page. Currently, the individual book page appears in the same browser window.
    All, documentation I read says that I can set the "Target" field in Text properties to either NONE or _Blank to get a New Browser Window, but this does not seem to work.
    Breaking up the text into small pieces is not an option, since Flash seems to shift text block positions when they are placed close to one another. I don't know why, it just happens. This makes the site unusable so the text block needs to remain a single text block for appearance reasons.
    So, does anyone know if this is a bug in CS6?
    Or does anyone know how I can get the "Target" setting to work for URL links within a block of text?
    Thanks.

    How are you assigning the links in the text?  Normally if you assign a url to a textfield you can select one of four different targets, none of which is NONE (_blank, _parent, _top, _self)... so I am wondering why what you describe is different than what I'd expect.

  • URL links not working in safari

    Hello, I am unable to open URL links in Safari. (iPad) all was well until a few days ago and I must have done something!  Everything else is working fine. Can anyone help me sort this out.  I'm sure there is something in settings but I can't find it. Thanks in advance. Pat

  • Swf url links not working on local files

    Tearing my hair out on this one. I have simple swf files with
    links to html pages in the same directory - they work fine on the
    internet, but not when they're local. I'm on a mac osx 10.4.11
    FireFox and Safri. Flash pro cs3. I need the links to work on the
    web & CD. I've updated flash player ... etc...
    thanks in advance for any clues!

    Hi Per,
    Wamp server's default site folder is www.  For best results, you should move your Local Site folder to www inside your wamp server.  That way, when you save changes locally they are automatically saved to your local testing server. 
    Click on screenshots below:
    Spaces in file and folder names are never a good idea because they get converted to %20 characters which can lead to path problems.

  • External URL links not working in .exe

    I have created a training programme using Adobe Captivate 7 which includes hyperlinks to websites and documents on a DVD Rom as a .exe
    I have managed to open the documents, however the URL hyperlinks are not working. I have had these working in previous versions of Adobe Captivate without having to change any 'Global Settings'. The issue being that I can't expect all of the learners who take the course to change their Global settings when they use it.
    How come this has changed in the new version?

    I know you said you didn't need to set Flash Security in previous versions, but I've been using Captivate since version 1 and it's always worked this way for me.  Only if you publish to HTM/SWF and launch from a web server can you use Open URL actions on external files without needing to configure Flash Security.

  • Multiple url links not working in flash catalyst

    Hi,
    I hope there is a simple solution that I have mistakenly overlooked - I have a flash catalyst file for my homepage with about 6 different url link buttons (full size images) each of which fade in one at a time, and take up the whole flash screen while visible. When one particular image (converted to button) is visible, I want people to click and go to the relevant link for that picture. However, no matter when I click on any image, the only link that works is the top button (even though it's hidden.)
    I am still new to Catalyst and your help is so greatly appreciated!

    I suspect it might be in how you might have made your button. Can you post your project? I can take a quick look.

  • Plain Text URL links not working in the Windows 8 Mail App for only one account.

    Hello,
    I just started using a Surface Pro, and randomly one of the accounts I have setup in the "Modern" Mail app stopped parsing the pain text URL path that was included in them.  Specifically links to forum discussions.  I have 4 other Win
    8 devices and they display the links fine.
    More confusing is this issue happens ONLY with my O365 mail account and only on one PC.   I have an Outlook.com account and it renders the pain text URL as a clickable link, but when I send the same email to my O365 account it just shows up as
    text, no link generated.  All in the same Windows 8 Mail App.
    I ran the Windows 8 App Troubleshooter, I've reinstalled the Mail app,  I've removed and re-added the mail account.  Nothing fixes this.  Anyone know why?
    Thanks,
    Joe

    Same problem for us, the link is also not rendered, if the mail is sent to an on-premise Exchange server.
    Its only for plain-text messags, HTML-messages work fine.
    Why is this problem ignored? The app is useless with that limitation.

  • URL link not working on client PCs

    Hi All,
    I created an APEX application and gave the URL to users to access the app. from their desktop. It worked fine for a while and now I can only access the app. from the server using that URL. Any idea why this is happening?
    Albert

    This really does not sound like an Apex issue at all.
    Can they reach other websites?
    Is it an internal hostname or external? i.e.- do they get there by typing a server name or do they have to type a fully qualified url?
    Can they ping the host?
    I think you may need your IT department to look into this. By that error, the client PC is not even getting a request to the Apex server. Afraid this isn't one for the Apex forum.

  • Submit to URL link not working

    I am trying to setup Submit to URL and trying to include a link in the body message of the email. When I hit submit the email message comes up with the link cut by half. example

  • Links not working correctly in PCUI for CRM

    Hi All,
    We are implementing mySAP CRM 4.0 through PCUI on Portal
    EP6 SP14.
    I have integrated the CRM Business Package 60.2 in Portal.
    Proper User has been created in the backend and assigned Sales Manager Role both in the portal and in the CRM backend.
    We are facing problem of links not working in the CRM Contents. When we click on the links in the CRM Portal Contents ( BSPs) we don’t get the desired application opening.
    When we click any links in the BSP's ( Activity Links in Opportunity Management BSP ) we get a blank page popped up.
    I have the screen shots with me. Any one responding can get the screen shots from me.
    Thanks in Advance
    Rohit

    Rohit,
    Have you maintained configuration in (transaction CRMC_BLUEPRINT_C --> Navigation (URL Generation) --> Assign Object Method to Role)? Be sure that the role that you are using is present and ID Page/Service field correctly points to the pcd url for your portal.
    When testing, it may be helpful to set parameter CRM_URL_BUFFER_OFF = X on the user profile (SU01) to turn off the url buffer. That way changes made above are immediate.
    Best Regards,
    Bernard

  • External links not work

    Hello,
    I have a word document that has external links. Text that
    links to other page or other url.
    When I convert my doc (word document) into a swf using flash
    paper 2 the links not work. There are still highlighted but no
    linking is taking place.
    please help me.
    Thanks
    Alejandro

    I am having the same problem. At first I thought it was
    because I had converted an excel file but I tried the same
    information from a word document and the links do not work in the
    browser or if I view the SWF file separately. Additionally, when I
    convert the word file to a pdf none of the hyperlinks to pages or
    documents work but the links to email addresses do.

  • Adobe Edge links not working

    Yeah I have also experienced links not working when I import my .oam file from Adobe Edge Animate also. Is there anything the Muse team is doing to fix this issue? I need a response from you guys by the end of the week. my company website is malfunctioning due to issues with your software. If there is some sort of hotfix please let us know.

    When you install the software illegally, using a volume license, there is a script you can run that will enter all of the adobe servers into your local DNS hosts file so the software can be activated. This makes accessing those domains impossible. This scenario fits the description of your issue, not suggesting anything beyond that.
    The hosts file is in /private/etc/hosts and can be accessed through the terminal:
    sudo nano /private/etc/hosts
    If you see a bunch of adobe servers in there, that is your problem.
