Create a Link to a different Keynote file?

Does anyone know if you can create a link in one keynote file that would open a different keynote file? Essentially, I'd like to create a looping slideshow as an introduction to a presentation (while people are getting seated), and then when I click the mouse, it would automatically open my actual presentation file, which would be a second keynote file. Any thoughts? Thanks!

The link works fine when just "playing" on my computer. Have you had any luck in rehearse mode or an actual presentation?
I can't get the link to work.
Thoughts?

How do you create a link to download a PDF file?

I'd like to create links so that when clicked, a PDF file associated with the link will automatically be downloaded. I've created a folder where I've stored all of the PDF files, but where on my web host do I put the folder--is it part of the published iWeb folder or should it be kept separate? (I'm using a 3rd party web host, Lunarpages.com)
Second, to create the links, I've written "Download Page" on for each link, highlighted the words, then enabled it as a hyperlink with the inspector. However, this changes "Download Page" to the name of the PDF file. How can I keep the words "Download Page" without changing it to the name of the file? Also, is this the correct way to have a PDF file automatically downloaded when "Download Page" is clicked?
Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Hi there,
While I do not use iWeb, I do use PDF files on my website.
I first create a new folder to hold my PDF files and upload this to my website. When I create and upload PDF files I will upload to this folder. When someone wants to view this files, all they need to do is click on the link I created. After clicking on link, if the user is on a PC, Acrobat Reader is automatically used to view the file or if they are on a Mac, Preview is usually the default viewer (if the they are using Safari, it will simply open in Safari). Just having the extension on yourfile.pdf will cause this and you will not need to do anything else on your end.
FOR EXAMPLE: Download Sample PDF - try it on different browsers and PC's
As far as 'download page', it automatically starts as soon as you click on link. If you are talking about 'saving' the user will always have that option on their end...

How Do I Create A Link To A Different Page?

I'm using the v10.1.2 Portal.
I created 6 Oracle Portlets implemented using JSP. I then created 2 pages within the same page group.
On page 1 I put Portlet_1a, Portlet_1b and Portlet_1c. On page 2 I put Portlet_2a, Portlet_2b and Portlet_2c.
In Portlet_1a I want to create a link that, when clicked, will bring the user to Page 2.
Can someone explain how I can go about doing this? What classes/api should I use? How do I specify a different page within the Page Group?
Thanks,

Hi,
Its can be done, Im also using this.
There are 2 ways how I do it
1) I have a .properties file on the app server where I've put an attribute eg page2URL= http:\\......
In Portlet_1a I read this attribute and use it for navigation. Every portlet instance will read the same attribute value.
2) You can have a Personalization Object and put the page2URL attribute in the portlet defaults. This will store a seperate attribute value for each portlet instance
PL/SQL portlets do it differently again, each page has a (unique) name, you can look up the name inside the portal database and build the url from there. I never done this trick though.
There is a big difference in how the links work on the new portal version and the older one. Friendly links vs identified links.
Classes you can use to help build an url
 try {
 //url = UrlUtils.constructHTMLLink(pr, UrlUtils.PAGE_LINK, "dummy", "", new NameValue[] {}, false, false);
 //url = UrlUtils.constructLink(pr, UrlUtils.PAGE_LINK, new NameValue[] {new NameValue("eventid", ""+1)}, false, false);
 url = pr.getRenderContext().getPageURL();
 pageLink = url.replaceFirst("<[aA] href=['\"]?(.*?[^'\"])['\"]?>(.*?)</[aA]>", "$1");
 pageLinkEnc = URLEncoder.encode(pageLink, "UTF-8");
 } catch(Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); }Orcale API already creates a <A....link for me, I didnt want that, so I filtered the actual link from it
Hope this helps a bit

How Do I create a Hyperlink back to a keynote file on a certain slide

In my Keynote presentation I have a demo on (say for example) slide 30 which contains a hyperlink to another keynote file, at the end of this keynote file I want to create a hyperlink back to the original presentation from slide 30 or 31. Any ideas?

Tulse is, as usual, absolutely correct. The only way to accomplish what you want is to divide your "main" presentation into two parts (per your example between Slides # 30 and #31) and then Hyperlink to and back from the "third part."
To make this as seamless as possible to your audience, add an extra slide after #30, before #31, and as the first and last slides of your "third" (insert) presentation. Make all of these full-screen black (just create a black rectangle that exceeds the borders of the slide). Dissolve into or out of each of these black slides as appropriate. Then use the black rectangles at the end of part-one and the insert as the "triggers" for the Hyperlink to the next part. You will need to Click on these at the appropriate times to initiate the Hyperlink transitions. (Sadly, Hyperlinks cannot occur Automatically.)
The result will be a fade-to-black (Click to Hyperlink) fade-from-black at each of the transitions.
Good luck.

How do I create a link to a different page in my portal website

This is probably a no brainer for someone. I've got Oracle Portal 10.1.4, and I'm writing a portlet. I want to create a link in that portal to another page in the portal. How should I do that in Java? Currently when I put in the link to the other page it just loads in the current portlet cell.
Thanks mucho!

>Outer join
Probably not. When updating/inserting/deleting from 2 tables you perform each seperately. Table updates may join two or more tables to resolve the correct row(s) but you still only update one table at a time. Procedurally you would create a transaction, update the first table, update the second table and then commit the transaction.
EDIT: Well I take back my last comment. I see that MySQL does seem to support multiple table updates. I don't use MySQL so I can't really help you on that but the MySQL manual gives pretty clear syntax.

Create desktop link for epub o pdf files?

Hello,
I would like to create a direct link into the desktop of my iPad to a local file. It could be either PDF or EPUB file (I'd prefer PDF). I didn't manage how to do that? I've just succeed on creating link to webpage.
Bye
Giacomo

From what I know you have 3 choices:
1) Use an app like Goodreader to manage the PDF files, in folders, etc, but not on the desktop.
2) Use web page(s) to load and read the pdf's with a shortcut on the dessktop.
3) Use "Fast PDF" app that gives you an iBook-type interface bookshelf for pdf libraries. I think you'll like Fast PDF. I really like it. It's 99 cents.

Creating two links to open external forms...

I understand how to establish the option to open a spreadsheet. I also understand how to create a link to open a pdf file on our server. What I need help with is creating 2 separate links at the bottom of my report to open one or the other. The only other solution I've come up with is to create a "dummy" report in a new region, underneath my main report and all that region has is the name of the pdf and the user can click on that. It works, but not clean looking. I would prefer to have the 2 links, one underneath the other or side by side. I found a forum discussion that mentioned modifying the report template along with creating a new application item. I tried that. The app item doesn't ask me for the drive on our server. When I modify the report template, I get no results. It's obvious I am doing something incorrect. please help me.

Go to
Edit > My Connections. The next screen gives you the
option to remove a connection. Just select the connection you no
longer need and click Remove.
Hope this helps!

Keynote files deleting after update to 10.8.4

I performed a small edit to a Keynote file today after updating to 10.8.4 last night (used the combo updater). The file crashed during a presentation and I though "no big deal, I'll just re-open it." When I went to find it, it was completely gone. Vanished.
I booted up Time Machine back at the office, restored the file, and chalked it up to some fluke. Then I edited a different Keynote file. It kept popping error messages about not being able to locate media files and I eventually closed it. Again, I went to find the orginal file to re-open and it too has dissappeared. This time, Time Machine wouldn't even let me restore it from a backup.
I ran disk utility and it found minor errors in the volume bitmap and free space remaining. So I booted to the recorvery partition and repaired successfully.
I'm up and running again, but my Keynote file is still missing. I'm afraid to open Keynote again for fear of this happening again.
Is there any known issue with 10.8.4 corrupting the file system, particulary when opening and editing Keynote files?
(15 " Retina MBP, latest model with 768 GB)

GordonGecko9:
- First, make sure you back up all remaining Keynote presentations. Hopefully, you have a backup of the one that got deleted. I had to get a copy from another folder. Once the file was deleted, Time Machine suddenly thought it was never there in the first place too. That's right, the deleted file was also deleted from Time Machine--even months back.
- Once you have backups of your files, run Disk Utility and see if there are any errors. I had a few, so booted into the Recovery partition and repaired.
- Remove all your Keynote .plist files from the directory: /Users/your username/Library/Preferences. Your Library folder will be hidden unless you hold the OPTION key and then select the GO menu at the top. You can just move these files out of that folder and keep them elsewhere if you want them again.
- Check your console log to see if any errors were reported about the time of the crash. I had some message about Flip4Mac confilciting with another video codec, so I deleted Flip4Mac. Not sure if it mattered, but I didnt' really need it anyway.
- Since you have backups of your files now, you can start playing around with Keynote again to see if your problem is solved. Here is what I found:
> After deleting the .plist files, I sill had issues after editing presenations. The changes would take, but then when I went to save the file, I got an error message that the location couldn't be found. When I chose "Save As" isntead, Keynote crashed. However, when I rellaunced Keyonte, the file was saved in its orginal location. (Before I deleted the .plist files, the presenation was gone after Keynote crashed).
> Subsequent edits and saves worked normally on the same file. As I opened other presenations from the same folder in the finder, I got the same errors (crashing and file not saving). But then, upon relaunch everything seemed fine.
It seems that something with 10.8.4 is causing directory errors with Keynote files. When you go to save an edited presenation, it gets confused about where to put it and the file gets deleted instead.
Please keep me posted on if the above "fix" works for you and if you notice anything else.

Problem creating several image maps (linking to different pdf files) RoboHelp 8

Hi,
I have a problem creating several image map hotspots (that link to different .pdf files), from the same image using RoboHelp 8 HTML (WebHelp project).
After compiling, the first image map hotspot created, opens the .pdf file correctly. Unfortunately, when clicking on the other image hotspots, I get an error " Cannot find file...<file path>... Make sure path or Internet address is correct".
All the pdf documents are located in the same folder within the project.
Can anyone help?

Have you added the target files as baggage?

Creating a link to a file on a Windows server?

I am trying to create a link to a file located on a Windows server that I can email to users and they can click on the link and it will open the actual file.
Here is what I have done so far:
smb://server/sharedfolder/document.doc
The user can click on the link but it just opnes up the "sharedfolder" and then you have to find the file you want and then open it and that works.
I need the link to be able to just open the actual file.
Is there a way to do this??
Thanks

Since it's a file download, there's no reason to add the target="_blank", I'm guessing your file is 404 for some reason which would give you a blank window per the target.
Make sure the case structure of the file and link are identical. Servers are case sensitive, a server sees CheckIPApp.zip and checkIPApp.zip as totally different files. Your local OS sees them as the same thing so during local testing it will work, when uploaded, it won't.
Make sure you've loaded the file onto the server at the exact location specified by the link. It should be in a folder called "Zip Files" that resides on the same directory level as the page that the link is on.
You may also want to normalize your file names. They should be all lower case alpha-numerics without any spaces (use hyphens or underscores instead) and without special characters ($%&*). You can use DW's Files window to change names and DW will fix the links automatically.

You can open both Muse files at once, copy the content of a page on one site, then paste it into a new page on the other site. You might have to redo some of the page styling.

Link a pdf or word file to Keynote

I wish to create a link in Keynote to a multi page pdf document. It is simply too long to place on a page. I have not been able to find a way to do so. Does anyone know how to do this?
My object is to burn the presentaiton to disk along with the files that relate to links.

Keynote won't link directly to PDFs -- you'd have to use Personal Web Sharing and link to it through a URL, but this would not work from a CD.

How to create a link in a keynote document towards an iCloud keynote document

Hello everyone,
I want to create a keynote presentation (located in iCloud) and make a link to another Keynote presentation, also located in iCloud.
Apparently, this is not possible, since when I create a link, the only possibility is to link to another file located on my physical drive.
If anyone has any ideas how to bypass this...
Thanks in advance.

Note that there's currently a bug in the way annotations work on an OCG. The link will disappear but the bounding box of the link will remain an active hotspot. In your case however the bug may be useful, as if two link objects partly overlap on the page and one isn't on an OCG, turning off the OCG does indeed disable the hotspot.
Follow this process to see what it can (and cannot) do:
From the Tools > Print Production Panel, open Preflight
Select 'single fixups' - the third icon
Click the "Layers" section just so things will go in a logical place
Click "options" then "Create new Preflight Fixup"
Name it "Put all links on the Links layer"
Click the "Layers category" and scroll in the right-side list to choose "Put objects on layer"
In the "Objects identified by a check" menu, choose "Annotation is of type Link"
In the Layer name field, enter "Links"
Click OK to save your new check.
Assuming you have a document open, select your new Fixup and press the Fix button.
You'll be asked to save the file with a new name, then you'll get a message about the layers being modified and instructing you to close and re-open the file (that's a limitation in Preflight, until you do the new layer won't show up).
To understand how the overlapping OCG-nonOCG bug works, now you have a link on the Links layer, create another one using the normal tool (which will not be on the layer). Half-overlap them and see what happens when you turn the layer off and on.
The simplest way to test is to create a blank document and add a "go to a web page" link with a visible rectangle - then when you migrate it onto a layer, you can probe for the hotspot by hovering your mouse and looking for the URI tooltip.

Keynote 6.2.2 will not open a keynote file created in 6.2.2

I was sent a keynote file by a work colleague and we both have Keynote 6.2.2 on our MacBook Pro's. My MacBook will not open the file sent by my colleague even though it was created in version 6.2.2 I get an error message saying I need to download the latest version from the App store. Even after trying for a later version the App store says I already have the latest version installed... any advice please?

Tried this and is did not work. Created the file in 6.5.2 yesterday. Keynote will not open it from 6.5.2. will not open from 5.1.1. Zipped it, sent to myself. Uncompress - will not open. Sent to different email address - will not open. Tried everything in this forum. Went to app store, would not let my purchase because current version is latest. Think I purchased some version for Iphone and Ipad in desperation - doesn't seem to have been downloaded but waws charged for it. Really really frustrated with the new Apple - where nothing works - If I can't get this file open - another 14 hours of work and then what - have to leave open forever? - never able to use except on my imac? Please help.

Linking button from one flash file to a different flash file

Hi All,
Wondering if anyone knows how to link buttons in one flash
file to open a specific scene of an entirely different flash file?
If it isn't possible to choose a specific scene, is there a way to
just open a flash file...in the same browser window, but not within
the flash file...if that makes sense?
I'm putting this on a website, so additionally, I will need
to know which file to link it to, the swf, html, or fla.
Thanks!!

I would advise against using scenes for your website. You
would need to create a separate html which would load the second
swf file within the same browser window.
This is how you call for it:
on(release){
getURL("
http://www.sitelocation.com/secondswf.html");
