Cannot Open Windows Program Link in Entourage

Hi,
I use Entourage to send/receive emails. It took me a while to load Windows XP thru Parallels because I didn't have the most current version of Parallels (bought it in Dec, only now loading it). Today I was sent an email with a link for a Windows only program I purchased that requires me to use a key to unlock the program. When I clicked on the link, I got an error msg that said "the requested URL/download setup/exe was not found on this server." I'm trying to find out if 1) is this because I need to receive this email in Windows to link to this downloadable file? and 2) if so, do I have to set up yet ANOTHER email acct using Outlook? I'm not computer literate, and I am getting very frustrated, not knowing who to ask for help: Do I call Microsoft, do I call Parallels? Apple will not help, which is a shame, because I have had good service from them. The fact that I have to pay $30 to Parallels for each situation dealing with a Mac-Windows program is making me wonder if I made the wrong decision to get a MacBook Pro. Is there any help out there for people like me to transition into the Mac/Windows environment more expeditiously and without too much additional money out the door? Help Pls!
Sharon

Thanks so much for your response. After spending a few hours trying to figure out what the issue was, I finally decided it must be a bad link, and notified the party involved. Now, I really do appreciate the fact that Apple cannot support other programs, but it sure would've been nice to have gotten a suggestion by the Apple Tech to check my source. All I got was that he knew nothing about Parallels. I did try to post a note to Parallels, but I kept getting entwined in a "please register/you are registered; please register/you are registered" loop, which drove me crazy. I wished there was a way to get computer help for issues not supported by Apple thru an Apple/Pro Care type of program. Life is too short to be wandering aimlessly thru the internet maize when there are quick answers by knowledgeable people out there! Thanks again.

  • I installed Lightroom CC successfully but cannot open the program. What can I do?

    Dear colleagues,

    The situation with Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 and version earlier than it (in particular 3.0/3.0.2) is disturbing with regard to MPEG2 Activation.
    Adobe document says that it no longer supports MPEG2 Activation for versions 8.0/8.0.1 and earlier and points the users of this group of products to a version later than 8.0/8.0.1, the current latest version 12.
    But, I am not sure of the real answer. The doubts are cast by the findings of some who have claimed to have solved the problem using a uninstall/ccleaner/reinstall scheme when they have been met by the MPEG2 Activation issue.
    But, I would ask....Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your Windows 7 64 bit computer? And, are you working with version 3.0 as the 3.0.2 Update?
    Is it still possible to run your Premiere Elements 3.0/3.0.2 on the prior computer on which it was installed?
    Also, does your Windows 7 64 bit come with Windows XP Mode
    Install and use Windows XP Mode in Windows 7
    which is essentially a virtual Windows XP Professional SP3 32 bit.
    As last resort, and highly experimental, but would you have time to experiment by replacing your latest version of QuickTime with the QuickTime Alternative 1.8.1 and then determining what happens with your Premiere Elements 3.0/3.0.2  Windows 7 64 bit situation? Do not bother with the MPEG Streamclip program download, just the QuickTime Alternative 1.8.1.

  • Cannot open any photos/movies in Entourage, message comes up saying 'folder cannot be found'. Last week I deleted lots of old documents/downlods and fear that I have accidentally deleted file that opens photos/movies.....any suggestions???

    I cannot open any photos/movies in Entourage, message comes up saying 'folder cannot be found'. Last week I deleted lots of old documents/downloads and fear that I have accidentally deleted what is needed to open photos/movies.  Any suggestions please? Should re-install the whole Office:mac program, and is it easy to do this without disturbing what I have on my computer?

    When you password-protected these folders then you did so to prevent anyone from accessing the pictures unless he had the correct password, even if he deleted the password application itself. Are you now asking how to get around this protection? If you
    selected a robust protection scheme then you probably got what you wanted: uncrackable encryption. You need to check the FAQs of this application and/or google for clues. Alternatively you could restore your files from your external backup medium (if you have
    one . . .).

  • Error You cannot open window [951] Authorisations with your current licence

    Dear experts,
    I am getting following error msg while clicking on any documet in sap b1 Menu..
    You cannot open window [951] Authorisations with your current licence
    Thank you
    Santosh Dhere

    Hi Santosh..
    You can check by clicking each user on the License administrator to find which user has assigned the License.
    To reset the licence please follow SAP note 951816:
    Symptom
    When trying to allocate licenses to users, the number of licenses available is less than the (number of total - number of licenses already assigned).
    (Menu Path: Administration -> License -> License Administration)
    Solution
    A user with a license allocated to her/him has been deleted from the system without deallocating the license first, or a company with users assigned has been deleted without deallocating the licenses first.
    Each time a license is allocated/deallocated an entry is generated in an xml file "B1Upf.xml"
    (Path: C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One ServerTools\License\ B1Upf.xml).
    If a user/database is deleted without previous deallocation of a license that entry is not removed from the file thus taking up a license space.
    To resolve the issue follow these steps:
    1. Close all SAP Business One clients.
    2. Make a copy of the file (C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One ServerTools\License\B1Upf.xml) and save it with a different name or in a different folder.
    3. Delete the original file.
    4. Stop/Start the license server.
    5. Connect to SAP Business One and assign the licenses (Administration -> License -> License Administration). You will need to reassign licenses for all your users.

  • Cannot open any HTTP links in Adobe Acrobat 6.0

    Hi
    We cannot open any HTTP links in Adobe Acrobat 6.0, that means if we click on HTTP link nothing happens.
    Howto configure Acrobat 6.0 to open HTTP links, instead of Acrobat Update?

    This happens because these are not true links. Links created with Acrobat using the link tool do not have this problem. Acrobat and Reader have a feature that tries to automatically recognize urls so they can act as links, but it fails when the link contains a space.

    Kindly help
    You cannot open window [60110] Service Call Form with your current license
    Regards
    Mohamed

    Dear Mohamed,
    This issue probably occurs due to the application error described in the SAP Note [1456922|https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1odSZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=1456922].
    When login B1 with incorrect upper/lower cases for the user name (eg. The user name is registered "manager" but login as "Manager"), the user can login successfully but fails to open a certain form window the user has permission.                                                        
    This issue is planned to be fix in a Patch of 8.8.
    As workaround, until the issue will be fixed, the users should use exactly the same user name as itu2019s represented in the OUSR table, with case sensitive user code.
    hope it helps,
    Regards,

  • Cannot open Reader program, no error messages (Windows XP, SP3)

    Hello all! I am hoping someone can provide a solution to my frustration....
    Earlier this summer I was having some computer trouble. The computer was under warranty - HP came out and changed the memory and system board.
    I have not been having any issues except for ONE thing - I cannot open Adobe Reader to view PDF files. Any PDF files on my system show the Adobe icon, but when clicking on a PDF file or the application itself, nothing happens. The hourly glass shows up briefly and then goes away, but otherwise, nothing.
    Temporarily, I got by using another PDF reader. Unfortunately, some of our business systems only work with Adobe, so getting Adobe to work is now critical.
    What I have tried (with no luck):
    1) Uninstalled Reader, did a system search to remove all Reader files, re-installed latest version
    2) Searched the Adobe community and other internet sites for help - tried a Microsoft fix, Adobe cleaner program, went into the Program Files menu to accept the user agreement, etc.
    3) Installed earlier verions (9.5, and then 7.0)
    Any other ideas? I called back HP, and they tried to be helpful but said it was a software issues since all other programs were running successfully. They suggested I re-install the operating system!
    Thank you for your help.

  • I updated to the newest version of itunes, now I cannot open the program. I get the message "The file iTunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes". What now?

    I updated to the newest version of iTunes and now I can not open the program. I get the message "The file iTunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes". What now? I'm using Windows Vista.

    Had same problem and solved it without having to reinstore any music or movies:
    1. Delete old Library file
    2. Go to the 'Previous iTunes Libraries' folder and copy one of the earlier files - note, they have a date extension, e.g. 'iTunes Library 2011-11-01'.
    3. Paste this file in your iTuners folder and rename file by removing the date extension -  'iTunes Library'
    You should have all your music and paylists in tact, unless it was a really old previous file.

    Did you check if the Firefox file is in that location?
    If it isn't there then do a clean (re)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.
    If the file is there then do a malware check with some malware scan programs.<br />
    You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.<br />

  • I have downloaded trial and cannot open the program

    I have been issued with a new computer and had a purchased copy of Captivate 8. I am looking to reload this on the new computer to continue my work.
    I have attempted to download a trial version with the aim of adding the key after installation was complete.
    I have the Adobe Captivate 8 -AkamaiDLM.exe and when I try to run it does not open the program.
    Is there a step I have missed? help please

    Hi  There , 
    It  seems  that  you  have  downloaded  the  wrong  file .  As  I  am  not  sure  about  your  Operating  System ,  I  am  giving  you  the  steps  for  downloading  and  installation  of  Captivate  8  for  both  32  bit  and  64  bit  version . 
    Please find  Download/Installation Steps for Adobe Captivate 8 ( For Windows Platform )
    Open the link mention below in any Web Browser say Internet Explorer
    https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=captivate
    Sign in with your Adobe id and  Password, then you will be redirected to download Web Page of Captivate 8.
    Do not click on Download. Kindly let that window open as it is.
    Now Copy and paste the link mention below in the new tab/window of the same Web Browser in which you have opened the above link.
    http://trials3.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/CPTV/8/win32/Captivate_8_LS21.7z
    (  for  32  bit  )
    http://trials3.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/CPTV/8/win64/Captivate_8_x64_LS21.7z
    (  for  64  bit  )
    Then Save the file.
    Do the same for the link mention below and save this .exe file as well.
    http://trials3.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/CPTV/8/win32/Captivate_8_LS21.exe
    (  for  32  bit  )
    http://trials3.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/CPTV/8/win64/Captivate_8_x64_LS21.exe
    (  for  64  bit  )
    Make sure both the files (.7z and .exe) save/download at the same location/folder.
    NOTE: Wait for both the files to finish download and then run the .exe file.
    Once you run the .exe, it will start extracting the .7z file and will provide Captivate 8 folder on your desktop which will contain setup.exe. Run this setup.exe to install Captivate 8.

  • Cannot open ADE program

    I am currently running Windows 8.1 and after opening the program once it now gives me an error message very quickly on the screen about "not working".  I have uninstalled and reinstalled the current program about 4 times now to no avail.  How can this be repaired?

    I suggest you try the older but more reliable v1.7.2.
    You will lose a few features.  You can have both installed at once.
    You may find it initially gets authorization confused between the two versions.
    If you have difficulty with authorization on 1.7.2
    Run 1.7.2, and type ctrl-shift-D to remove any confused authorization.
    Restart 1.7.2
    Try again to authorize
    ~~~
    There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0.  Try replacing ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.
    Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.

  • Windows 8.1 update 1 - users with domain mandatory profiles cannot open windows 8.1 Store

    Hi,
    After the update 1 on windows 8.1.  All of our domain users get "you cannot access the windows store because you're signed in to this pc using a temporary or guest account......" while opening windows 8.1 store.  All my users use mandatory
    profiles.  Could some one guide me onto:
     -how and what changes should I make on my base image of 8.1?
    -how/where what changes should I make on the domain in Group policy to make my profiles work?
    -I also run sccm 2012 R2 if that makes the things easier I can use it for deploying store apps, but I prefer to make a base windows 8.1 image throw all required apps on it.  I would like to make sure that my domain user can open up windows store after
    that I can capture this image and deploy.
                                  Need help thanks
                                  Note: Before this update 1 of windows 8.1 things worked great.

    Thanks Kate Li,
    Domain profile is not corrupt.  I have checked the registry settings.  In my question I am mentioning that I am using mandatory profiles for domain users.  Need help.
    I am on update 2 now and the same error for domain users with mandatory profiles.
    Also error 1001 is generated every time the user tries to open the store(the user with mandatory profile)
