Disabling hyperlinks

Is there a way to disable the feature in Mac Mail that automatically turns email addresses into hyperlinks within the body of a message?
Thanks

Yes. Change your message formatting to Text rather than RTF. Open Mail preferences, click on the Composing icon in the toolbar. The message formatting options are in the topmost drop down menu.

How do I disable hyperlinks in Pages 5.0?

I'm creating a document and i have a number of email addresses to work with, cutting and pasting, so I don't want the hyperlinks to be active. It was a simple matter to turn them off in the old Inspector. But I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it in the current version. Please advise.

Hello sudirende,
Thank you for the question. You can disable hyperlinks by verifying that Edit>Substitutions>Smart Links is unchecked before you enter the links or email address in the document:
Turn off automatic formatting for links
If you don’t want Pages to automatically format links as clickable text, you can turn off automatic formatting.
Choose Edit > Substitutions > Show Substitutions (the Edit menu is at the top of your computer screen).
Select the Smart Links checkbox.
Click a button to replace all occurrences of formatted links in the document, or just in the selected text.
When Smart Links is turned on for the document, a checkmark appears next to Smart Links in the Substitutions menu. You can deselect it to turn it off, but existing links won’t change unless you select the text that contains them, then follow the steps above.

How can I disable hyperlinks in a pdf

Sorry if i'm not posting this question in the most
appropriate category.
I'm trialing Adobe Acrobat 9 Professional and I'm looking for
a way to disable the hyperlinks within a pdf.
Basically in my workplace we provide an information directory
using a touch screen monitor for members of the public to use to
research health conditions. I want the members of the public to be
able to access certain pdf files but not to be able to escape from
that pdf file. Currently if they click on a hyperlink (whether it
be an email address or even a linked picture) then they are able to
escape from what they are supposed to be reading.
From the 'preferences' - 'general' menu I have unchecked
'create links from URLs' which now brings up a security message
asking whether to allow or block the URL but this isn't the
solution I was looking for.
I have read about putting a space part way through the URL to
fool Adobe so that it doesn't recognise the link as a URL but that
solution just isnt feasible in this case as there are potetially
hundreds of hyperlinks i would have to find and then edit (also
this wouldn't work if there are any pictures which are
hyperlinked).
I'd be extremely grateful for any help with this problem.
Perhaps this isn't a feature available in Adobe 9 Professional and
someone might know which version I should be using.
Thanks in advance
Charlotte

Disable hyperlink trigger of Mac Mail

I think I may wish to disable Mac Mail. The problem is that when I click on a hyperlink in a document cell in a pread sheet that contains a hyperlink (e-mail address) my Mac automatically starts Mac Mail and presents a new mail message that is already addressed. I do not want Mac Mail to automatically open. How can I prevent this from happening or am I just stuck with this feature? Should I remove Mac Mail from my applications if I do not use it?

Hi Shirley,
Should I remove Mac Mail from my applications if I do not use it?
That'd be the easiest thing.

Disabling hyperlinks in Mail

I have set up managed accounts for the kids in which I would like them to have e-mail access but not Safari or IE access. Although the applications priveledges works, there is a loop hole. If somebody sends a hyperlink in an e-mail, the browser will open even though it is not allowed for that account. Once the browser is open, the user can navigate to any other site. Is there any way I can close this hole by either not linking to a browser or rejecting e-mails that have a hyperlink?

Try to log onto your mail account via the browser. I cannot make any sense out of what your provider stated. Should you have login problems via the browser, chances are they have changed your password and not passed on the information. Try calling your provider again and request a new password. You can apply the new password in the account preference within mail.
Csound1 is right about mail not having password protection. Its security, is the security provided by SL. The only reason for passwords in mail is for connection to another system. If this is truly the response they gave you, it was a nice "song and dance". Disabling your password would absolutely deny you access to your mail, so how could you download your mail if you cannot get access to your account? Call back up and hopefully you will get someone who has knowledge.

Temporarily disable hyperlinks when zoomed in? (OS 3.0.1)

Hi all,
Is there a way in Mail or Safari on the iPhone to temporarily disable all hyperlinks when zoomed in? I am visually impaired and zoom in quit a lot on HTML email messages and in Safari. I can't count the number of times I've accidentally activated a hyperlink when panning around the page while zoomed in. This is very annoying! I can hardly read an entire article while zoomed in without activating some link on that page.
I don't think there is a way but I wanted to at least ask the forum before submitting feedback to Apple. Any other suggestions on how to avoid this annoyance will be appreciated.
Thanks!
Steven

Unfortunately, I don't think there is a way to do that. I feel your pain; I have an eye problem as well and it's kind of frustrating, but it helps if you just try to avoid pressing the links while zooming.

Disable hyperlinks/dynamic links from being sent to browser

I hope this is the correct place to ask this.
I've got word documents containing hyperlinks (dynamic) which leads to pictures/movies, the problem I have is that when I convert the document to PDF it insists on opening my links with the browser which then goes on to use the browser settings to deal with the various image/movie file extensions.
What I would like to do is disable this browser part of the equation.
I want to be able to click on the link in my PDF and it will go straight to the file I've pointed it at and open it with the associated program.

Domain policy to disable hyperlinks in Outlook 2010?

Our organization is under a requirement to configure text in Outlook that represents Internet and network paths in such a way that these must not be automatically turned into hyperlinks, i.e. verify "Internet and network path into hyperlinks"
is not configured. Is there a Office 2010 domain policy that can enforce this setting? I am only aware of a way to do this in individual user profiles.

Hi,
Do you have the
Office 2010 Administrative Template files loaded? If so, we can find the GPO setting under:
User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Outlook 2010\Outlook Options
Double click "Internet and network paths into hyperlinks" on the right pane and change the setting to
Disabled.
In addition, we can also change the setting via modifying registry.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\policies\microsoft\office\14.0\outlook\options\autoformat
DWORD: pgrfafo_25_1
Value: 1 to enable; 0 to disable
Please note, both method only configure Outlook to turn on/off the "Internet and network path into hyperlinks" setting, users can manually change the setting back then.

It's recommended to download and install
Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office
programs.

Currently I am using TLF 2.1.

You can find all hyperlinks in a textflow by getElementsByTypeName("a").
If you have any other blocker, let me know.

Disable Hyperlink Display in Enternet Explorer

Hi!
In Internet Explorer 11, when I put the mouse cursor over a link the link address (or some other information information related to the link) is displayed on the page
For example, when the cursor points over "Images" link in
www.google.com, the link
(https://www.google.com/imghp?hl=en&tab=wi&ei=sANBU9SnIIfasQa8pIGgBw&ved=0CAQQqi4oAg)
is shown bottom-left of the screen in a yellow box.
Is it possibile to disable displaying of the link (or information related to shortcut)?
Thaks,
Fatos

Hi，
Could you share a screenshot with us if possible? I suspect that an add-on oe an ActiveX control you installed in IE causes this issue, please test IE in no add-ons mode, launch IE in no add-ons mode, check the result
%ProgramFiles%\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe -extoff
if it disappears in this mode, then click Tools\Manage add-ons\Show all add-ons, find the suspicious one, disable it, or under Manage add-ons\Show download controls, find a suspicious one.

Hyperlink in Reminder App

How do I disable hyperlink in Reminders?

I am having this same issue and am SHOCKED at the bugginess of ios 7 reminders when used with Exchange.
I am a power Outlook user and the only thing that kept me using the iPhone after all these years was the seamless compatibility with Outlook/Exchange Tasks.
When I create a new reminder in the app, it often overwrites the last reminder, creates a duplicate in title and keeping the parameters of the last reminder on the list. This is a disaster!!! I am losing reminders, all of which could be critical to the running of my business and personal life.
I am also unable to create new lists at all, i.e. when I click on the "+" button, I am not able to tap on "New List," when I do so it simply returns me to the list of tasks.
Also the fact that I have to scroll to the bottom of my list of tasks to add a new one ... what???? I have hundreds of tasks as well, this is completely ridiculous.
One of the things I loved about ios 6 was how easy and quick the reminders app was, I use it all day and with the old version I could very quickly open, create a new task, and save. With the ios 7 version all of this efficiency and ease of use is gone.
In my opinion, ios 7 reminders is completely useless to business/Exchange users right now. I am HUGELY dissapointed and must find a third party app or am even considering switching to Android if this is not resolved.
C'mon Apple!!

Hyperlinks don't work with Reader 9 with PDF/a

Reader 8 and below in PDF/a mode with hyperlinks works just fine.. Upgrade to 9 and say good by to working hyperlinks! I would disable PDF/a mode but then Excel will not embed some of my type 1 fonts... Word gives the option to convert to bitmap if it can't embed... Why did Adobe change Reader v 9 to disable hyperlinks in PDF/a documents!!! they should have left it alone.. help anyone?

Hello!
If Hyperlinks are not allowed at all in PDF/A then i wonder why Hyperlinks of "HTTP://..." are working in PDF/A documents created from Word with Adobe 9.1.3 Pro but Hyperlinks of "DDD://..". are removed from the PDF file.
Adobe implement something that seems to me to be not consistent.
I double checked your statement regarding the PDF/A standard with someone of the PDF/A commitee attendants.
The response was that removing Hyperlinks has nothing to do with the PDF/A standard.
The relevant standard chapter is:
6.5.3 Handling of GoToR, URI and SubmitForm Actions
While permitted to be present in a conforming file, there are three types of actions for which a conforming interactive reader shall provide special treatment – the GoToR, the URI and the SubmitForm actions. The conforming interactive reader shall provide a mechanism to display the F and D keys of a GoToR action dictionary, the URI key of a URI action dictionary, and the F key of a SubmitForm action dictionary.
In addition, since the actual invocation of these three actions by a conforming interactive readers involves the locating of and interacting with other files that may or may not be conforming, the reader may choose to not allow the actual invocation of these actions.
NOTE For purposes of archival disclosure of the complete information content of conforming files, it is important for interactive readers to provide some mechanism to expose the destination of such actions. However, this part of ISO 19005 does not prescribe any specific behaviour or the technical implementation details that interactive readers might use to meet these functional requirements.
I would suggest to clarify the PDF/A standard and improve your current implementation.
Best wishes,
R.Bornheim.

Disable link for a Image in Content editor web part

Hi
i want to disable hyperlink for a banner added using content editor web part. Instead of hiding using Target Audience, i want to disable the link.
Please help me how can i achieve this?
regards,
Vinay
Thanks and Regards, vinnu

Hi Vinay,
I recommend to disable the link for an image using Jquery in Content Editor web part.
First, you need to use F12 tool in Internet Explorer(IE) to get the html tag for the image, and you’d better find the class or id value for the tag of the image.
For example, if the class for the image is test, then the code should be:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.8.2.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$('.test').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
</script>
You can also paste the code of the image here for further research.
Best regards.
Thanks
