Bad path in embedded links

After moving a server I discovered users at a remote site had been using an IP address in their links. I now have thousands of documents each with around 50 images that don't load. I confess I've never used Indesign. Is there anything I can do to help the users.

Yes, you can post full details of this including the version of InDesign in the InDesign forum.

SQL SERVER 2014 Developer - SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) - Tools in Toolbox are disabled because of bad path to DTS

Hello all,
after populating the Toolbox of SSMS with the "Maintenance Plan Tasks" all task are disabled. The reason is simple a bad path to the DTS modules. The path in the Toolbox points to ...\DTSTasks\... Installation has created a path of ...\DTS\Tasks\...
This is clearly a bug. But perhaps there is a workaround by changing something in the configuration. Any idea where to look for the responsible configuration file?
Regards Uwe

Hi Uwe,
Based on my research, just as you said, the path of Maintenance Tasks in the Choose Toolbox Items dialog box points to ...\DTSTasks\..., but the actual path is...\DTS\Tasks\....I can reproduce the issue in my SQL Server 2014, SQL Server 2012 and SQL Server
2008 R2 environments. It seems that this is a known issue. But the issue doesn’t affect the use of maintenance tasks, we can still drag the tasks to design the maintenance plan.
If you have concern about this issue, it is my pleasure to help you to reflect your recommendation to the proper department for their consideration. Please feel free to submit your situation on our product to the following link
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/. Your feedback is valuable for us to improve our products and increase the level of service provided.
As to the issue that all tasks are disabled in the Toolbox of "Maintenance Plan Tasks", please make sure that you have selected the tasks in the Choose Toolbox Items dialog box. Then double-click the task in Toolbox pane or drag the task to maintenance
design tab.
Thanks,

Mail 2.1 corrupting embedded links

Mail is corrupting my embedded links (e.g. the ones I create using the Edit Link selection).
Here is an example:
Actual URL:https://pds.ptc.com/Windchill/netmarkets/jsp/document/view.jsp?oid=document%7Ewt .doc.WTDocument%253A200701568&u8=1
Embedded URL: https://pds.ptc.com/Windchill/netmarkets/jsp/document/view.jsp?oid=document%257E wt.doc.WTDocument%253A200701568&u8=1
The part around =document%7Ewt.doc is changed in the embedded link to =document%257Ewt.doc

This is driving me crazy too! Trying to embed Wikipedia links which include "%" signs prompts Mail to add the number 5 for some unknown reason, creating bad links. WHY?

Embedded Links that can't be deleted.

I have several embedded links of an old image added onto my work, however several of the links could not be deleted and are invisible on the artwork. I can select them by using Go to Link but I cannot move them or delete them only resize it.
How can I get rid of this as I don't want to risk it appearing when coming up for print?
Thanks

Turn off the preview to see where the images are. (You should see rectangles. You should also find them somewhere in the Layers stack)
Check if anything is locked. (Object > Unlock All.)
Check whether layers are locked, if so unlock them.
Select the images (Links panel, click on link and then Go to Link button) and delete them.

How can I send a ThinkLink image with all the embedded links in Thunderword Email?

As you are aware, ThinkLink images have embedded links (word files, images, videos etc.). I am, however, not able to send these images through Thunderword emails. I have tried both Inset Image and Insert HTML but nothing works. Of course, I can understand that ThinkLink is a new concept and most of the email clients don't support it.
Thanks,

No I am not aware. I have now googled thinklink, joined their site and found that they do not create images. Only Javascript.
So no email client such as Thunderbird, which does not allow javascript, or any person disabling it in their browser for security reasons, will see your interactive images because they are not images they are interactive programs written in Javascript.
Now how to get unsubscribed from these folk, they already tried spamming my whole Google Plusfriends list.

Embedded links in text no longer available in Yosemite's Messages?!

Hello! I've been using iChat and Messages for years with my co-workers and I've discovered that in Mac OS 10.10 embedded URL's no longer seem to be possible. I am used to selecting text, hitting [command]-K and pasting in a URL before I send a message, but now my only option is to past in an ugly, raw URL in my message. This is a huge problem when I send a link to a funny video or cat meme picture whose name or descriptor is in the URL, completely ruining the punch line. I have to tell the message's recipient not to read the URL but to simply click on it and trust me, which ruins the joke. How am I supposed to rickroll my friends? I can still embed a link in Mail or even TextEdit. Even in this online forum format I can link in that stupid Rick Astley video.
Dear Mr. Apple,
Please let me add embedded link to my messages in the Messages app in Mac OS 10.10.
Love,
Bruce

Hi,
From time to time the thinking on this seems to change.
AIM stopped their App and other Clients (at that time this included iChat) from sending hyperlinked text due to several incidents of malicious code in links.
Only plain text links could be sent.
Some time later, when people seemed to have forgotten about this the ability was added back.
It would seem that the issue is back again.

How to find out the RasterItem(embedded) links name?

How to find out the RasterItem(embedded) links name which appeared in Links menu(Window->Links) via scripting for illustrator cs3. Please advise me the possibilities.
Thanks for looking into this.

Thanks for your support. From your code i got the filename(embedded) with pathname(if the embedded image in that location). If the embedded image not in that location at that time it throws error message. Is it possible to find out the name of the embedded image, if the corresponding image not in that location. Kindly advise me the possiblitities.
Thanks for looking into this.

Embedded links in emails won't open new window or tab in FF.

Running Mac OS X 10.6.6 and FF Version 3.6.12. I'm using Mail Version 4.4 as my email client and when I try and open an embedded link from an email, the link doesn't open a new tab or window. FF recognizes the link, but doesn't respond with a new tab or window. If I copy and paste the link into the browser the links work fine, so I feel like it's a setting or bug that has been changed somewhere somehow. This problem only happens when I try to click directly from the email. I've tried searching the preferences in both Mail and FF, but can't seem to find anything that fixes the problem. This issue started happening two weeks ago when I did the latest Mac OS X security update. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Hi everyone, I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I have been very very frustrated by this problem. [I could not create new windows, and anything that opens new windows, such as trying to see what Add-ons you have etc would not work]. I read about changing screen alignment to the top... I have one screen so the option does not exist. The above messages would not fix this problem. I searched hard and did find a solution in the end. I read stuff about removing Add-ons until the problem is fixed, but its simply not the case.
First of all open Firefox. next go to options: Help --- 'Restart with Add-ons disabled'. Tick the box for add-ons, restart firefox. Next go to Tools --- Add-ons. Next (In the Add-ons Manager' click on 'Plugins' on the left hand side pane. Look for the small blue writing that says 'Check to see if your plugins are up to date'.
Now notice it should say 'Missing Flash'. "For your safety, Firefox has disabled your outdated version of Flash. Please upgrade to the latest version". I followed this, reinstalled Flash and it now works as it always did, no problems. For people where the above fix didn't work, try this one out. Hope it helps people!

How to create an embedded link with VBScript that references user website from Active Directory?

I have scoured the web for days and have not been able to quite come up with exactly what I need for this. I have created an Outlook signature deployment using VBScript which sets information in an already formatted Word doc using placeholders. (Ex. [Displayname],
[Initial], [City])
All of that works as expected, but now marketing would like to have an embedded link reference some of our users personal web pages. So the link would display some kind of standard text like "Click Here". Once clicked on the user would be redirected
to the personal web page of the person who sent the email. My problem is, I have no idea how to get the hyperlink to pull in the information from Active Directory...another problem is I know only enough coding to be dangerous so I am stuck.
Here is a sample of what I am working with, I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks!

Can you ask a specific question? You have posted a script and noted you need a link but there is no question.

How to launch My Own Application by clicking a embedded link in iPhone

Hi All
Does anyone know how to launch my own application by clicking a embedded link in iPhone? same thing like you click a phone number , and then the phone application will be launched.
Thanks
-Tommy

You have to place the URL types your application handles in the Info.plist - see LaunchMe's for the format.
You'll do best opening it in a "plain text format" (right-click, open as), as it's a nested array instead of just a set of values, and it's easiest seen/modified in its native XML.

Embedded link not showing up in Illustrator

I had a client send me a word document as a pdf which I dropped into Illustrator to make it print ready. When I pulled the file into Illustrator, two of the embedded links, which happened to be the logo of said client, did not show up. The file is in the links panel and shows it as embedded, I can even see the bounding box when I hover over where the logos are supposed to be. However, when I open the file in adobe reader or acrobat, or even preview, those logos show up. Illustrator showed no errors and none of us caught it so it was printed without the logos.
Is there an explanation for this and how can I check for it in the future just in case it happens again?

You may need to get the embedded files from the person who authored the Word doc. and relink them to have them show up correctly. I'm not the biggest expert on Word but it may have something to do with the way the PDF was created from Word. Best way to prevent this from happening again would be to make sure if you have embedded files in a PDF you are opening in Illustrator that you address each one with caution. Select the links, one at a time in the links panel and click the go to link icon in the bottom of the links panel. This will highlight the link and zoom you into its location, if you see nothing, no graphic in the linked graphic area then you most likely need to get these graphics from the Word author and Relink them into the Illustrator file. Other possability would be to find out if there is a preset for PDF creation you could supply to the Word author that allows him/her to create PDF files that work for you.

Embedding linked PSD's in AI using AS/JS

Hi,
I am looking at a way of embedding linked PSD files into an AI doc using either Applescript or Javascript. The AI docs I work with already have the PSD's placed as linked images. I am using Illustrator CS2 (12.0.1) on a Mac, running OS 10.4.10.
I need to ensure that the PSD files are embedded with the "Convert Photoshop layers to options" option set, so that the blending options set on the PSD layers are honoured when brought into Illustrator. This works fine when done manually, as the "Photoshop Import Options" window appears for each PSD I embed.
I encounter a problem when trying to embed a PSD using AS/JS though. In both cases, there are no options available to be used in conjunction with the 'embed' command. 'Embed' seems to assume and use the "Flatten Photoshop layers to a single image" option, which does not honour the PSD layer blending settings.
i Things tried:
*tried setting the Photoshop options to preserve layers in AS prior to running 'embed' i.e.
>set photoshopOptions to {class:Photoshop options, preserve layers:true, pixel aspect ratio correction:false}
>set IllustratorPreferences to {class:Illustrator preferences, Photoshop file options:photoshopOptions}
I have tried the equivalent in JS too.
I can see that the preference is being set, but this still has no effect on the 'embed' command as these prefs relate to opening PSD files in AI only (same "Photoshop Import Options" window though?!)
*have looked at UI Scripting in AS - I am able to select and press the "Embed" button in the Control Palette in AI, but AI does not respond at all, i.e. I can see the "Embed" button change colour when clicked but nothing else. Other UI elements in AI respond correctly to being clicked, just not the buttons in the Control Palette.
So any help/guidance/suggestions etc would be greatly appreciated.

You need to expand and ungroup after the trace. Then delete the white you do not want. I missed a little piece in the last screen shot. But you get the idea. I put a black background behind the trace.
