Can commas within topic titles and *.htm filenames affect hyperlink jumps?
I have two topics that I'm trying to jump to from other
topics. The thing these two topics have in common is that I
originally used commas and apostrophes in the topic titles and
*.htm filenames. This seemed to screw things up, since my jumps to
the topics never worked.
I deleted the topics that were causing problems and re-added
them without using the punctuation. I still can't jump to these
topics. To test whether there was a restriction on the maximum
number of jumps you can add in one project, I created a jump to an
entirely different topic - the jump worked.
So, I think something got corrupted with these topics. I
could try deleting them and adding them "fresh" again, but I
thought I'd post here to see if anyone has come across the problem
before.
thanks in advance,
ChristyG
I was able to fix the problem by re-creating (for a second
time) the topic titles and files and not using any punctuation
whatsover. I think the problem stemmed from the keywords that were
used/unused/deleted/reused. I went to the Index tab, selected "See
Also" from the drop list, and deleted any keywords that were
bolded.
regards,

How to get a list of Topic Titles and coresspoding HTM names in RH 9?
I need to generate a report containing the list of Topic Titles and the coressponding HTM names in a RH9 project. Any pointers on how this can be achieved?
Use the Tools > Reports > Topic Properies menu item. If you use the Options button to deselect all the options you'll end up with exactly what you want. You can even export it to a TXT or RTF file.

How can I restore iPhoto titles and captions to iPhoto JPEGs sent to, and opened in, Aperture 3?
Thank you very much, Kirby. Your suggestion was exactly what I needed. It proved to be a big help even to my One-to-One Aperture trainer at the Naperville IL Apple store. My slideshow text, caption, and music attributes also were carried over intact to the new Aperture 3 environment. - A.Z.

IWeb - Can you make a blog? Can you make a title and let people respond?
Can you make a title and let people respond?
For Example:
'Do you like my new Book?'
Comment:-
???Yes. You can add forms to you page which send you emails with the information the visitor put in the form. There are two types, one that you create with Form Action Code that you create and put in an html snippet, Form Action comment form, and more sophisticated forms that are created at a 3rd party site and embedded into a page with an HTML snippet and iFrame code as in this demo page: Embedding Forms & Encoding Email Addresses. With the second method you can set the form to any color combination you'd like. Another example of the Wufoo type is at the bottom of this demo page: QT Movie w/o Quicktime.

Hi
We use Robohelp X5 for Word and we have quite a few problems
1) Some topics and mid-topics titles have changes in the
references. They contain the phrase " .... PersonNameProductID...".
We don't know why.
The word document is OK.
If the topic ID does not contain this phrase, we can change
or delete the text of the topic title. That's no problem.
If the topic ID does contain this phrase, we can't do
anything. More than that, Robohelp does not work anymore and we
have to reboot.
2) Sometimes, the generation does not work : either it never
stops ... or it fails with no explanation.
Sometimes, the generation works.
There are no changes in the document between the time it does
not work and the time it works.
Does anyone have some ideas ?
Thank's
PS : sorry for my english, that's not my languagequote:
Are you saying that with Smart Tags turned off, you still
cannot amend a topic id so that the phrase does not reappear?
Yes, that's what I'm saying -

Why can't I "update" titles and other effects on iMovie?
I love creating videos on iMovie. I even have an account on Youtube.com, which I upload some of my videos to. Regardless, I am restricted from achieving a high level of iMovie competency due to limitations on my knowledge of iMovie. I don't know how to add titles to my movies. I can preview them...but somehow not "update" them. Its confusing. Also...I don't think I can add Quicktime videos to my iMovie videos. I am quite confused, because I look around online and everyone is doing these compilations between their own clips and those of movies, music videos, etc. Also if there is any free software I can download to rip dvds and convert files...please let me know. I am really confused. Someone help me...please!?!?!?!
G5 PowerPC Mac OS X (10.3.9) iMovie 4.0.1 and Quicktime 7.1.1Hi Crew:
Welcome to discussions!
You don't need to 'update' the titles-just drag them.
Look at this little video (really it's quick!) for a tutorial:

Wouldn't hurt to peruse the entire site actually!

How Can I Manage Topic Statuses and Workflow (RoboHelp 8)
I'm the sole RoboHelp author in a company with a project lifecycle that didn't require me to work concurrent Help updates. I had time to finish an update and publish before starting work on another. Now I have multiple projects hitting my desk that need to publish on differing schedules.
My question is, how can I more effectively manage my workflow? For example, I currently need to publish a Help update for Project 1 that only impacts two topics; however, I have updates for three existing topics in review for Project 2 that doesn't rollout for three more weeks. If I generate an update for Project 1 now, my Project 2 topics that I don't want to publish yet will be included in the compiled file. How can I manage this situation?
It looks like I can set a topic status. Currently, all my topics use the default "In Progress" status. Should I set all my topics to "Complete" and reserve "In Progress" and "Ready for Review" for those that I'm working on for my various projects? Would it enable me to publish completed topics for Project 1 and default to the original content for the three Project 2 topics I status as "In Progress" or "Ready for Review?" As I noted, I don't want Project 2 updates to compile with Project 1, but do want their original content to be included in the file until such time as I'm ready to release the updates.
ThanksI'm not clear how source control will help here. I believe the problem is about working on topics that are not to be included in an output. This is achieved by using conditional build tags. Apply a tag of say WIP to topics and content that is not ready to be generated. When the help is generated, apply a build expression of Not WIP.
Source control would only be necessary if there is more than one person working on the project.

Missing Index topics, links and .htm files
I hope someone can help with this, as I am very frustrated
right now. I normally use RoboHelpX5, but have also tried this in
RoboHelp7.
If I generate a Winhelp2000 version of our help system,
everything appears normal. All of the specified index keywords are
there, all of the links are there, etc.
But if I generate either HTML or WebHelp versions using the
same source, as I'm supposed to be able to, for some reason:
1. Index entries for certain topics disappear from the list.
If I manually add the topic to the index again and save, then
regenerate the help files, the topic is still missing from the
index.
2. The hyperlinks for the missing items in #1 above do not
appear. The original text is there, but there is no hyperlink. If I
try to add a hyperlink again, the topic appears in the list, but
once I regenerate the help files, the link disappears again.
3. The individual .htm file for the missing items in #1 above
are not being generated.
Is there some reason why these topics are being dropped from
the html and webhelp versions of the help system? Is there some
sort of topic formatting or setting I am missing? I have tried to
compare working topics vs. missing topics, and cannot find anything
different in my Word document formatting.
I have tried creating a completely different help system,
using clean documents with no RoboHelp formatting, and consistently
have problems with the same topics. I even tried on another
computer that had never had RoboHelp on it before. That didn't make
any difference. The topics were still missing from the index, the
hyperlinks to those topics were still missing, and the individual
.htm files were not generated.
Any help would be appreciated.
Stephanie
(ow_mas)Hi,
I ran into the same problem today with some top level Index
entries not showing up in WebHelp. I discovered how to fix it by
comparing the entries that did show up with those that didn't. If
an entry had a topic associated with it, it showed up; if it has a
cross-reference, it doesn't.
Double click an Index entry in the Index pane (or right click
and choose Properties), then clear the Cross-reference checkbox.
Repeat for each entry that has a cross-reference instead of a
topic. There may be a global way to fix them all, but I haven't
found it yet. Then recompile your help, Voila!
Hope this helps....

Can I edit artist, title, and description after accpeted to ITunes Store?
If anyone could help, THANKS...
I got accepted to ITunes Store for my new Podcast. But, i would like to change a few things before I start to advertise.
I would love to trim the title, the artist is something that needs some adjusting, and so does the description. How do i log in to change any existing info?
Thanks so much!
b.quainIf you're using iWeb to publish your podcast to iTunes, simply go to the webpage that you have the feed as, go to the inspector panel and click on the RSS tab, then podcast. There, you should be able to edit podcast author and several other info tags through your podcast.
Publish after you make the changes and then use this link, just insert your podcast ID number as provided by iTunes:
https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/pingPodcast?id=INSERT YOUR PODCAST ID
Clicking that link will update your feed with the store. You should see the changes immediately if not within the next couple hours.
Hope that helps! -
How can I get a Title and a subtitle that are on the same page to come into the TOC in order?
The subtitle is appearing before the Title even though it doesn't flow that way on the page. I use Paragragh styles to create my TOC and otherwise have had no problems. Any suggestions?

Can I copy bookmark titles and web addresses to a document file?
I would like to copy my current bookmarks to a Word document. If I highlight>right-click>copy then try to paste into a blank page, the only information that appears is the bookmark title. I also need the URL selected, but the copy/paste function does not work.
I would suggest that you use Mozbackup to backup your entire profile instead of trying to convert a bunch of emails into a Word document. Then if something bad happens you just install Thunderbird on the new computer and restore the backup. Then you have your address books and emails.

I’m posting a problem/solution that my team ran into
recently in hopes that it will save other people time if they find
it also.
Problem:
I have a Help project created on an XP machine, using
RoboHelp Classic, with Word 2002. There are over 1500 topics in the
project, It is compiled as Webhelp, contains 1,667 objects, and is
22.8 MB in size.
While working in my project this week, I noticed 4 of my
topics in the RoboHelp Explorer view suddenly had a prefix of
"placeCity" in front of the topic title. It only appeared in the
explorer view and the Properties dialog, but not in the document or
topic itself. When I tried to change the topic title in the
Properties dialog and save, it acted like it saved, but when I
looked in the explorer view, they still had the strange, new
prefix. Then I noticed approximately 6 or 7 topics had the words
"State" and "stockticker" added to the topic IDs which showed up as
broken links. But when I looked at the compiled Webhelp file names,
they looked normal.
I exited RoboHelp. When I went back in, I received the
following message: "RoboHelp Explorer has detected that there are
unregistered routines used by the following features in this
project. -Html Topics or hotspot links to Html pages displayed in
the Help window. -Link to a Html page, displayed in the browser. Do
you want RoboHelp to make the necessary updates?"
I never saw this message before so I selected Yes. (This
message also appeared to another user on our network, crashed their
computer, but their project was fine afterwards – they were
using a Word 2003). I don't know if selecting Yes stopped any more
chances of RoboHelp automatically renaming topic titles and topic
IDs or what it did. I was afraid I might have a virus, so I spent a
whole day running virus/spyware software. The results found NO
virus but I did have some Malware which I removed. I didn't know if
this caused my problem with RoboHelp or not.
Solution:
We had other users guide us that it could be similar to the
font problem (with KB917334) that people were currently running
into. We checked and found a Microsoft patch had been loaded around
the time that our problems started: KB917335 for Word 2002. We
deleted the patch, rebooted the system, deleted all of the rtf
files from project, and then started RoboHelp. All issues were
corrected. We have now turned off automatic updates to that
computer until our release has gone out.
TextOK and thanks very much for checking that the HTML output is
not affected by this problem. At the moment all I can say is that
Adobe are looking into it but I don't know what they have found
yet.
Changing the help type might not make you the most popular
person. I cannot say how much work it is but it's not a five minute
task. The problem your company has though is the winhelp has this
problem and at the moment you cannot get around it, assuming you
have tried all the suggestions that have been posted. That may mean
that there is little option but to go down the CHM route.
The only other thing that comes to mind is whether this
problem is RH related or Help Compiler related. If it is exclusive
to RH generated winhelp, then maybe some other tool is an option.
If it is Help Compiler related, it won't matter what tool you use.
Have you tried creating another project to see if you can
change topic ids in that? Has anyone else come across this problem? -
Can a topic title contain angle brackets (greater than / less than)?
Using RoboHelp 8, WebHelp output generated via rhcl and displayed in modified Internet Explorer (IE).
One of my colleagues is creating a topic to describe an application object that has angle brackets (greater than / less than signs) in its screen name. Needless to say, RoboHelp doesn't like those symbols in the topic title, and it hides them and the text between them in the generated topic title. Steps to reproduce: Typed < and > in the Properties dialog; topic's <title> meta tag shows < and > .
Other than replacing the topic title field with static text, is there a way to push these symbols through the Properties dialog or the HTML editor?
It's not world-shatteringly important - the workaround is okay - but I'd like to know how to avoid this problem with other "special" characters, if I can.
Thanks,
ElisaWillam is correct that you cannot type < or > directly into the HTML code and in pointing out that RoboHelp automatically converts the code when you type that in design view.
However, I think that you are aware of that and it is not the problem you want addressed. You can see that you can type that straight into the Topic Heading but your Topic Headings are not typed in, you are using fields and what you are finding is that if the Topic Title contains the brackets, that works everywhere other than Topic Headings. Is that correct?
If so the cause is linked to what Willam has pointed out but I am sure Adobe could work out a solution. Report it as a bug. Please follow this link.
