Can keynote hyperlink to another program

I'd like to use keynote to hyperlink to another program. According to the inspector I can only link to a quicktime movie, webpage, or another keynote file!
Any ideas?

Dear Tulse,
Thanks for your reply. I don't think it's a matter of security, this isn't anything that involves networking or sensitive data- all I wanted Keynote to do is to open up, say, a Word or an AppleWorks/Inspiration file which could then be used to brainstorm > save > then back to the presentation.
regards,
There are probably good security-related reasons why
Keynote doesn't do this. I'm also not clear what you
would want Keynote to do with the launched
application, since it can't actually communicate with
it in any fashion, nor would it be easy for the
launched app to return to the presentation when it
was finished with whatever it was doing.
With all this said, I think it would be hugely
beneficial if Keynote could run AppleScripts when an
object was clicked -- then it would much like
HyperCard, and one could launch apps and communicate
with them very easily. The security issues would
still apply (for that matter, there'd be more of a
risk), but I'm sure there would be a way around this
issue.

  • Firefox does not load the website when clicking a hyperlink in another program

    I am using Firefox 5.0.1 in Snow Leopard 10.6.8. When I click on a hyperlink in another program, Firefox launch but show me a blank page, instead of the web page of that hyperlink. This only happen if Firefox is not launched prior to clicking the hyperlink. This mean, if I am already using Firefox (Firefox is opened) and I click on the hyperlink in other program's document, Firefox will launch that web page. Is there any setting that I need to do?

    I read those before .. but my problem is not any one of them !

  • Firefox does not auto launch when I click on a hyperlink in another program

    Firefox no longer auto launches when I click on a hyperlink in another program (ie in an email). It used to work and I have no idea when it stopped.

    Vista-64 home premium. When updated to Firefox 4, I also got this message. Fixed by reassociating htm type files to Firefox 4 (Control Panel, Programs, Set your default programs, restart Firefox). Works now.

  • Can LabView start/call another program such as QuickTime?

    Hi,
    I want to use my LabView program to start up another program. Is this possible? If so how is it done?
    The program I have in mind is QuickTime. Will I be able to pass the name of the file I want it to play as an argument and specify where the new window will open?
    Thanks,
    Dave.

    Hi
    You could also place an ActiveX-container in a vi. So you can select a file and set the window position.
    Just have a look at the simple attachment.
    Hope this helps.

  • Saving completed file for opening in another program

    I have been using Pinnacle Studio 10.7 because it allows me to produce HD-DVD on regular DVDs. (The drawback is the approximate 20-minute time max on each DVD.) I'd like to start doing work in Premiere, then save my work to a file that I can simply open and immediately write to a DVD without losing HD quality.
    What file type is best for saving my work in HD quality that can be reopened by another program without liosing that quality. I've thought that a workaround might be to simply write the new file to tape and then recapture in Studio. Can anyone help me, please? Thank you!

    There is a way to fool Premiere Pro into writing the file. Just start the process, and while it is transcoding, disconnect the camera. You will eventually get an error message. Before you click OK you rename the file so Premiere Pro can't delete it.
    That makes a perfect M2T file that can be used without having to recapture.
    By the way, you can use many different utilities to write a data file to the DVD-ROM. I use WMV or M2T files on a DVD-ROM since my player supports them.

  • OneNote recordings "We're sorry, we can't open the file because it is in use by another program."

    Constantly, OneNote breaks and screws up my recordings that are synced with my lectures. It is such a fragile process and very frustrating. As soon as I'm done recording, I press stop. When I test the recording, it says, "We're sorry, we can't open
    the file because it is in use by another program." I just recorded and then stopped it. If i close and reopen OneNote, it says, "oneNote is cleaning up from the last time it was open." And the recording still says it's in use by another program.
    I've even restarted the laptop and it still won't open. The only way i could salvage the file is if I copy and paste it into another folder, and then it will open through windows media player, but all the live syncing with my notes are gone. Where are these
    files stored? If I could save the sound and find the file/format that holds the syncing data again, I could work around this. They are no where to be found on my computer. Other forums give locations, but my folders are empty. Some other recordings work and
    sync nicely, but I have still lost many recordings to this error. However, if I play a file and then close it without stopping playback, that file, too, will now be unusable. It will be stuck as "We're sorry, we can't open..." no matter what i do
    and again i have to copy/paste it into a new folder and then move it back. I had the same problem on my last laptop. I record in Windows Media Audio 10 Professional at 192 kbs, 48 kHz, and stereo CBR. I need the high quality because the lecturer is too quiet.
    It seems to happen when I record long lectures, 45 min+. Shorter recordings tend to work fine.
    Please help, this would make note taking so much easier.

    A bit of a confusion on my part;
    Now we have created these REPORTS using Basic Crystal Report 10.5, which comes bundled with Visual Studio 2008 and .Net Framework 3.0. Now on our machines, we have never experienced any issues.
    Going by the above, you should have references to CR assemblies of version 10.5.3700 only. No other references.
    Now, looking at this paragraph:
    BUT on the DEV server (web server) which has .net Framework 3.0 and in its GAC its has CRYSTAL DLLs version 11.5 (required to create an Object of ReportClass and its related functions) ; sometimes we get the following error while exporting crystal report to pdf:
    I wonder what runtime was deployed to the server. E.g.; if you are using CR 10.5, your assemblies will be 10.5.3700 and you should be deploying the following runtime (depending on 32 bit / 64 bit, etc.):
    CRRedist2008_ia64.msi

  • Why am I being told that a JPEG file that I made changes to in Photoshop 6 (CS6) can't be saved?  The message I get says that either the file is locked and I don't have permission to execute this or another program is using this file.

    i recently purchased a 21.5 iMac with Yosemite (10.10.1) and was disappointed to discover that my CS6 programs are not functioning correctly.  I am unable to use the "Save As" command  when making changes to a JPEG file in Photoshop.  The message I get says that either another program is using the file or it is locked and I don't have permission to execute that command.  I'm experiencing a similar problem in Bridge when trying to move an unwanted file to the Trash.  Again, I get a message telling me that i don't have permission to do this.  Lastly, I'm unable to open any Camera Raw files.  Any suggestions?  I had no problems with the Mavericks OS on my old iMac and although it's much slower, I'm tempted to go back to using my old iMac.  At this point, I feel as if I've just wasted $2300+ (tax included). 

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
    Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
    sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
    resetp
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • I can no longer directly print from the USPS print servelet. I now have to save the file and rename the extension to PDF load in another program to print. It used to be automatic. What happened?

    When trying to print from the USPS website (to print a label) when I click to pay and print instead of my print selection screen coming up I get the "Firefox doesn't know what to do with this" screen. THrough some web searching I found I can save the file, then change the extension to PDF and load it in another program and print but it adds two steps and is a real pain. Why would this have changed????

    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.<br />
    Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.

    No printing :I can't print anymore, printing the same file with another program is ok, printing form LR (in the same system and printer of course :-) ): Preparing  and Printing indicatorbar in the left hand upper corner are running and completing, but no output at all to my printer. I have been printing before. Next I upgraded to LR5.7.1 but the problem stays. Perhaps some adjustment is changed by me unintentionally, but I have no idea. Does anybody know what to check? Printing to file is also strange,the canvas only seems to accept A4, and crops any image relative to that size, so a 10x15 cm print on 10 x 15 cm paper is cropped to 10x15/2. Anybody any idea? (system win 8.1 64, printer HP B8550)

    I accidentally solved my mystery.  For some reason it was set to "print to file".  I changed it to "printer" and now I am able to print.
