Automatic link to Apple page

I'm trying to add new content to the web page I'm trying to learn how to create and am wondering what to do about the link to the Apple homepage that is on my site. I have a partially created text box, but when I click on it to add more text, it just takes me to the Apple site. There is a blue button (with white arrow) at the bottom of the page (plus one that I created to a pdf file that works fine), and I don't know where it came from or how to get rid of it. Lots of other questions, but one prolem at a time.

Hi Tim,
it looks like you accidentally linked the textbox.
Thus selected the textbox and opened the inspector and checked "Enable as a hyperlink" (External to the mac page is the default link)
What you would have to do is not clicking on the textbox itself because that just opens the mac page. Instead click on the page outside of the textbox then holding the click move the pointer toward the textbox until it gets selected. Then open the inspector and uncheck the "Enable as a hyperlink" box.
Problem: if there's another object (textbox, image whatever) where you click this one will be selected and moved around and you will not get the textfield selected so better would be to go outside of the page hit and hold click and move the pointer toward the textfield of interest. Doing this will select all the other objects on the way too... You then release the click hit and hold the Command(Apple) and click on the selected objects that are not of interest. Thus only the textbox of interest will be selected. Now open the inspector and uncheck enable as a hyperlink.
(I can't believe I didn't find a better way... But I don't think there is...)
Regards,
Cédric

  • At end of flash video, automatic link to another page??

    Hi, this is what I'm trying to do:
    On my homepage I want a video and when the video has ended, the user gets redirected to the next page. So far I've got my video in flv format, imported it into Flash CS4 and the added video control thing. I've then exported the movie and imported it into Dreamweaver CS3. I can get it working on my website.
    So basically what I now want is to add this automatic link at the end of the video. Any ideas?
    Thanks, Scott

    There are basically three elements to using the navigateToURL function.  Here they are broken down as separate pieces...
       var url:String = "http://www.awebsite.com/awebpage.html";
       var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
       navigateToURL(req);
    And here they are combined into one line of code
       navigateToURL(new URLRequest( "http://www.awebsite.com/awebpage.html"));
    And if you want have the content appear in the same window include "_self" in the arguments
       navigateToURL(req, "_self");
    OR
       navigateToURL(new URLRequest( "http://www.awebsite.com/awebpage.html"), "_self");

  • How to automatically link a page to the next page in the next spread

    Hi everyone,
    I created a master page in which the two pages are linked( text frame on the page). When I apply the master page to the pages, on every same spread, two paged are linked, but not between spread. How do I automatically link the second page of first spread to the first page of the second spread? so all the pages will be linked in sequence. Thanks a bunch!
    Simon

    The InDesign Place command is fundamentally different from the Quark Get Content commands (as is the handling of frame content -- inifintely easier to change content type in ID). To palce content in ID you don't need to have a frame available to hold it, though you can if you like. Master frames are seldom required, or even helpful in many circumstances -- things like magazines with a rigid structure of mixed image and unbalanced column heights are one example where they ARE helpful.
    When placing text you have several options. If there is no frame, click the loaded cursor where you want the text to be and ID will draw a text frame on the fly. The top of that frame will be at the y-coordinate where you click, it will fill the column guides surrounding the point at which you click, and iut will extend downward to the bottom margin guide. If there is more text than will fit you'll see a red plus sign in the frame outport that you can click to pick up the overset.
    Still with no frame, you can click and drag to define a frame, or with an existing empty frame you can position the cursor over the frame (you'll see the icon change to include surrounding parentheses) and click to flow text into the frame and any addtional frames that may be threaded with it.
    There ae several options for threading. If you've made master frames and threaded them, hold down the Shift key when you click iniside the frame and InDesign will add pages based on the last master in the thread untill all of the text is placed. If there are no master frames, holding shift will add frames on the fly, and pages to hold them. These frames will fill the column guides from top to bottom margin guide.
    Holding the Alt (Opt) key instead of Shift puts you in semi-auto flow mode and text will be added one frame at a time (or one group of threaded frames if you click inside a thread), but will leave the place cursor loaded so you can add a new frame or click inside another existing frame. You can swith from semi-auto-to full auto at any time by changing keys, or release the key to just place text in the last frame. Holding Alt + Shift puts you into Autoflow to end of available space mode, wich will fill existing pages, but not create new ones.

    Hi,
    You need to put the code inside your flash movie rather than
    in the html that you have shown.
    Open your movie and make a new keyframe on the last frame of
    your movie. Then open your actions panel and place the following
    code in....
    getURL("
    http://www.yourwebsite.com");
    Cheers

    It sounds that you are running the same iCloud account with two phones.  I recommend you to create a different iCloud account and you should be all set.

  • Is Acrobat Pro right for us. We have an Employee Handbook that needs editing. Some is current pdf, some from an older version. Want to get all into one handbook, have the table of contents automatically adjust and link to specific pages from the ToC.

    Is Acrobat Pro right for us. We have an Employee Handbook that needs editing. Some is current pdf, some from an older version. Want to get all into one handbook, have the table of contents automatically adjust and link to specific pages from the ToC.

    You can download the trial version (http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html) to convert the PDF back to WORD if you do not have the original. The conversion may not be perfect, but it is typically better than starting from scratch. You may be lucky and get a good result. You might check the settings (in the save screen) to try retain format versus retain text flow. The format version can be a pain to edit since it creates a bunch of text boxes. The flow version may require you to reformat in WORD, but you likely would want to do that anyway.

  • When visiting certain sites, if I click on a featured link, I get the message: "Firefox has prevented this page from automatically directing to another page", How do I disable this so I am able to get to the page I want?

    In this particular case, I was on a page that offered group discounts ("deals") that can be purchased for a limited time. To make the purchase, I needed to click onto the link with the name of the deal being offered. However, upon clicking on that link, I received the message from Firefox that it was preventing the page from automatically directing to another page i.e. the page that would have allowed me to make my purchase. Please answer quickly since the deal I want to purchase expires in three hours!

    The idea to jumpstart by change was not the smartest one, but gives you an opportunity to use that "temporary" account as permanent. You do not have a choice cause obviously despite you thinking that old account is no more -it does exist on Apple servers. And if you are unwilling to share your [email protected] with friend, just create one extra [email protected] for your friend. One suggestion - do not use gmail.

  • AFter the latest download, my e-mail service keeps getting a bar at the top "Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page". I have to keep hitting the "Allow" link? How do I get rid of this?

    Ever since the last update, I'm having problem accessing my e-mail account. I keep getting an annoying bar at the top of the screen "Firebox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page." I have to keep hitting the allow button, sometimes twice. And when I do get into the accounts the bar jumps in and out every time I open a new e-mail, or delete and old one.
    How do I get rid of this. I've had this account for years, with a very reputable private e-mail provider. This is nuts.

    See:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
    The setting in "Tools > Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

  • Automator click link on web page

    Is there a way to use Automator to click a link on a web page? I print to a Toshiba copier that requires me to input a code to validate the print job. I would like Automator to:
    1. Go to the web page (on our intranet) in Safari
    2. Click the bullet for my print job
    3. Select "Release" to release the print job, which brings a popup screen
    4. Type in a pre-programmed print code (five digit number) in the entry box on the popup screen
    5. Click the "Enter" radio button on the popup screen
    6. Close the Safari window.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    hi
    thanks.
    giving the link is a little bit difficult: 
    when i copy the link that is embedded in the graphic advertising the product, it initially resolves to a double-click site, but then eventually resolves to the iTunes app store Safari page advertising that product.  it is after that page is resolved in Safari that the mac App Store app opens automatically and goes straight to apple server page that advertises that product.
    I can give you the link to the apple page itself, but thats not the problem because that link does not subsequently open the App Store app.
    i hesitate to give the name of the product in this forum for obvious reasons.
    its just so odd - this automatically opening an app. never seen it before happening on a mac. thats why i thought if the App Store app was just a browser window that that behaviour would be acceptable (even though I so have Safari set to open in a new tab  - not a completely new window).
    if you email me i will send you the very very long link that can be copied that is embedded in the graphic, and i can send you a screen shot of the safari page it is happening on.
    since ads are so much specific to what ever IP address /  region / country you access it from, even if you have the same web link to the original site where this ad is currently on there is no guarantee you will see that ad when you access that site since your location is different from mine.
    i wonder if apple is testing a new jump that goes direct from an ad such as this directly to opening App Store, eventually bypassing the intermediate apple explanation page.
    stumped.
    thanks

  • Safari 'Email/Email Link to this page' launches Mail Again

    If I select Share > Email/Email Link to this page' in Safari, and Mail is already running, rather than just creating a new message, it launches a second instance of Mail (same executable though) and then creates a new message.
    I have already rebuilt Launchservices with Cocktail, to no avail.

    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether your problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click  Log in.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
