E-mail Link in Flash MX for Mac Not Working

Hi
I'm currently using Flash MX on a Mac running OS 10.4. When I
publish a SWF file the e-mail link in it doesn't work. Within the
Flash file itself I've added the action mailto:[email protected]
to a button. It simply opens up the default internet browser
(Safari) when clicked, instead of the default e-mail program (Mail
or Entourage).
It works fine on PCs running Windows XP or Vista - just not
on Macs. I even sent it to a friend who also has a Mac to make sure
it wasn't just my computer, and he had the same problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

you are using....???
getURL("mailto:[email protected]");
This would be the proper syntax. What version of the Player
are you targeting 4,5,6 perhaps even 7?

Upgraded Adobe Flash Player for Mac not working for Youtube

There was a similar question already asked today. I also tried to watch a video on Youtube from a Mac (OS X 10.5.8) and Safari (ver. 4.0.2). However, instead of the video a recommendation to "Go Upgrade!" comes up on Youtube with the following link: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
I picked the right operating system, installed the player, restarted the computer, but am still getting the same message "Go Upgrade!" on Youtube.
Also, in the other message you recommend to go to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ but I cannot see a Flash animation on that page.
Can you help? Thank you!

Skype 6.3 upgrade for Mac not working

[Topic title updated by moderator to be more descriptive. Original topic title was: "Skype upgrade for Mac not working"]
BE WARNED - just because you are being asked to upgrade your Skype, it does not mean it will work on your machine. I am a fairly regular user of Skype and this morning was unable to log-in, being told that I needed to upgrade. I did so to 6.3.0.602 but I was unable to log-in once the software had downloaded. After some research on the forums and finally a text chat with Support, I was told that Skype 6.3.0.602 requires a Mac OSX of 10.9 or above - I have 10.5.8
"So what can I do", I asked the tech support. The answer is nothing (unless I get new OS X software) - there is no Skype software programme that supports my operating system and no timeframe for when it might be available.
Huh? That's right. It's just not available. So for now, users with less than OS X 10.9 will be unable to use Skype when they are instructed to upgrade. It really doesn't make sense. But just so you know....

Please look at the top of the community page, and you will find a box "Search:". Write your problem here "Upgrade not working" and see what crops up. Most likely you will be taken somewher like here: http://community.skype.com/t5/Mac/quot-We-ve-signed-you-out-because-your-using-an-outdated-version/m...
Here you will read that the latest versions of Skype will not work on some of the versions of MacOS, and that PPC requires one version, Leopard another, Snow leopard another, Mountain Lion another. They are indoctrinated with a stamp in their forehead to enforce their congregation of true believers to install the latest with all "security fixes" or death is looming. They are not used to software that is 2 years old.
So, with Mac, we have different operating systems and different sets of libraries - and things may go belly up if you upgrade - a OS feature is done differently, a libary has been placed inside the OS, and is no longer needed - and if you try to use it, you will be trapped.
Install the latest version that works for your Mac, and make sure to freeze this. Update the "info.plist" file and tell Skype that you use their latest should they pry. As long as it works, do not change anything!
And make the change to stop Skype from checking every time you start.

Itunes 7.1.1 for mac not working

i updated to 7.1.1. and when i open itunes, it freezes up. no error message or unexpectedly quit msg, i just see the menu at the top, but can't do anything and have to force quit. is there a way to uninstall itunes on osx and re-install an older version?

Ever since I updated to iTunes 7.1.1(5) for Mac I've had nothing but problems in my attempts to launch the program. Neither the shortcut in my Doc nor the main listing under "Apps" would launch the program; all I got was a wonderful "This program failed to launch" prompt.
Two big things I've learned when it comes to iTunes: do not download updates 1) immediately and 2) from "Automatic Updates." Something about going via "Apple > Software Update..." causes my system to crap out when performing iTunes updates. My suggestion is to download the latest release from Apple.com and then install. Additionally, iTunes 7.1.1(5) corrupts your "iTunes Music Library.xml" file.
Thankfully, ever since iTunes 4.7.1, I've become overly cautious and I create duplicates of my Music Library, which made this process much easier (with far less screaming) than it might have been.
First, drag anything "iTunes" related from User/Library/Preferences to the trash (i.e. com.apple.iTunes.eq.plist, com.apple.iTunes.plist, com.apple.iTunesHelper.plist)
Second, drag any shortcuts for iTunes into the trash and drag the master iTunes link listed under "Applications" into the trash as well.
Third, make a duplicate of both your iTunes Library and iTunes Music Library.xml (which are most likely located at User/Music/iTunes) and move the originals to a different directory, such as up one level to your "Music" folder or to the desktop. This is important because after you reinstall iTunes, there's a very good chance your iTunes Library will become corrupted, not find all of your tunes, and over-write your original XML file and cause all kinds of badness.
Fourth, if you can get your hands on a copy of iTunes 7.0.2 you should install that first. If you want to continue on, go ahead and install 7.1.1(5), but use the version you can download off Apple.com.
After I did all of this, I was finally able to open a fresh copy of iTunes 7.1.1(5), which created a brand new iTunes Library and iTunes Music Library.xml and reset all of my preferences. After this successful launch, I then quit iTunes, dragged the new iTunes Library file to the trash, and placed a known, good duplicate of my original iTunes Library back into the User/Music/iTunes directory (which, of course, was renamed "iTunes Library" after deleting the "copy" part).
Launching the fresh install of iTunes 7.1.1(5) a second time with my original (undamaged) iTunes Library gave me back all of my playlists, play counts, etc.
What a friggin' nightmare.

JSP demo PTS included with Oracle 9i Developer Release for Mac not working

Hello all, please pardon my ignorance, but I am an Oracle DBA not a JSP programmer.
I have installed Oracle 9i developer release for Mac OSX and it included a demo application in JSP called pts.
I followed all the instruction and it still doesn't seem to work.
When I try to login to the application I get the following exception:
exception
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP
An error occurred at line: 3 in the jsp file: /oradev/pts/solmktinit.inc
Generated servlet error:
[javac] Since fork is true, ignoring compiler setting.

[javac] symbol : class DBAccess
[javac] location: package pts
[javac] import oradev.pts.DBAccess;
I'm not sure what this means or how to fix it. I'm sure it's something simple like modifying my classpath or something, but, as I said, I don't know where to begin.
Any assistance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Can't you just use the 10g client ?
I have not tested the 9i dev. with oci calls but I would not be surprised if you try this on tiger. That won't work AFAIK.

Link to download libdvdcss for Handbrake not working?

Hi Everyone,
I'm trying to download the libdvdcss package so I can run the 64 bit version of Handbrake and transfer my DVDs to my iPad, however the link to download it (from Mac themselves, along with many other webpages) is not working. Where is a reputable place I can download this package? The link that's not working is http://download.videolan.org/libdvdcss/last/macosx/
Thanks!

Hi,
Can you let us know what OS and browser you are using. Can you try an alternate browser and let us know if you experience the same behavior? With win2k and ie6 or ns4.79 it seems to work fine.
Thanks,

Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac Not Working

I recently purchased Office 2011 for Mac. I work at home on my Mac at work on Windows 7. I also have a work laptop, running Windows 7, that comes home with me. My goal is to RDC my Mac to the laptop running Windows 7 to reduce desktop clutter, and easily work between machines.
I CAN NOT FIGURE OUT how to get Microsoft RDC:mac to connect to my pc.
I know that the pc allows remote desktop connections because I often use RDC at work from PC to PC.
SOME PLEASE HELP! I have spent hours and hours trying to figure this out and I think it is the time capsule that is causing the problem.
My research has found that I have to use port 3389 to get this done. I am pretty computer savy but when it comes to networking I guess I have no clue. I have tried just about everything a and can't figure it out.
Thanks to anyone that can dedicate some time to configureing my time capsule to allow for RDC.

I cannot quite put together your whole network..
I work at home on my Mac at work on Windows 7. I also have a work laptop, running Windows 7, that comes home with me. My goal is to RDC my Mac to the laptop running Windows 7 to reduce desktop clutter, and easily work between machines.
So this is in local lan.. the PC laptop running win7 and the Mac loaded with RDC software. If this is local lan then the issue is nothing to do with TC.
That is only if you are trying to connect from work. to home through the router at work and TC at home. On local lan there is no blocking to ports. Are you using the local network IP of the PC Laptop?
Explain a bit further as it needs a bit more clarification.

Office for mac not working for all users after migration

Recently purchased macbook retina display and used migration assistant to move everything over from a macbook pro 17" (late 2011). After the migration my login (admin rights) has no problem on the new macbook, but my wife login cannot use the Office for Mac without being asked to do an install.
Problem is, the version we have goes through the install and then asks to 'register' the product and the version is no longer supported so you cannot register, therefor the program will not run.
Am I missing something here? Everything still works on both of our sign in's on the old macbook pro, and on the new macbook retina, office works on my sign in only.
The original install was a download version, so there are no 'disks' to do a re-install.
Any suggestions?

Kindle for Mac not working at all on my MBP.

Have Snow Loepard installed. Kindle always used to work. Suddenly, one day, after OSX update no longer worked. Mac and Amazon don't even recognize a fresh install of kindle for mac. A line of question marks in the center of the kindle page. Weird. I called Amazon over a week ago about the issue. Still no response, though I was told some people were having similar issues. Anyone else experiencing this with Kindle for Mac?

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3200518?start=0&tstart=0
According to the guys in this forum, the correct answer is not the correct answer. The actual correct answer is to follow the steps outlined to uninstall the Kindle program from your computer (Do not use Clean My Mac). Then, redownload the program through the Apple App Store (NOT Amazon), and you should be good. It seems there's a discrepency between the coding of the program in the App Store and the actual program off of Amazon's website that the actual program off of Amazon's website doesn't account for with Lion.
Hope that works for you guys- spread the word to all the other 100 forums about Kindle if it does.

Office for Mac not working

After installing Lion, I can no longer open Office for Mac 2004. Went to Apple store when I inquired, they said to update Windows. But it won't open at all. Whats next?

There are lots of reports of that here, and perhaps the Apple Store meant to say upgrade Office for Mac 2004 to Office 2011. If cost is a factor, perhaps iWork would work for ya. Pages is very good and saves files out in word format that others can open, say on a PC. The reason I recommend this is for the Version features of iWork apps, which writers have wanted for a long time, and now we do!

Logitech Quick Cam Vision Pro for Mac not working in iChat.

Whenever I try to use iChat with my Logitech camera i get either a message saying "there is no camera attached" or "another program is using the camera". Rebooting helps for a while and it will work, but if I open Preferences then the problem arises again. Unplugging the camera and replacing it is no help - even bypassing a hub and plugging directly into the computer. The audio works fine and the mic choice is the camera's - no problem. Skype video also works perfectly. This seems to be a problem ever since I upgraded to Snow Leopard - I never had this problem before.

Hi,
Prior USB 2.0 and UVC compliant Cameras there has always been problems with Logitech cameras and their Drivers.
There were two third party Drivers for Macs that could be used and the iUSBCam utility.
However Broadly speaking UVC compliant cameras working over USB 2.0 and Snow Leopard have seen iUSBCam fall in to the Unsupported on Leopard group.
It seems that some of the Pro variants of Logitech cameras are still having issues with the Mac OS in Snow Leopard.
The Windows Vista Driver for UVC is/was fairly feature rich in what you could adjust/access about the camera settings.
The Mac version implemented at OS 10.4.9 is less frilly.
Some cameras are 1.3mp but ichat only uses a max of 640 X 480 pixels pics (0.3Mp) and it is unlcear if some cameras will allow this to work smoothly.
I would also try a PRAM reset.
Shut down the computer.
Restart it holding down APPLE(or ⌘)ALT+PR Keys until you have heard three Start Up Bongs.
This may reset things further/deeper than a reboot does.
Based on historical evidence I would suspect the camera's side of the UVC implementation not allowing a proper step down to lower pixel sampling.
Of Course it could be the way Snow Leopard does this or the UVC driver in itself (although both seem to work with other makes of cameras)

Trackpad zoom in function for mac not working

I downloaded the beautiful Firefox last week. Everything works superb BUT the Zoom in function for the trackpad, which is a very important function for a guy that reads everything straight from the computer. I opened the Safari just to check but it works well there...
I restarted my mac (MacBook Pro, 2 years old) but still not working. Help please!!

Your zoom controls.
<Control> '''+''' (plus) enlarge
<Control> '''-''' (minus) reduce
<Control> '''0''' (zero) restore
You can rename (or delete) the '''content-prefs.sqlite''' file in the Firefox
profile folder to reset the page zoom for all websites.
Type '''about:support''' in the address bar and press enter.
Under the page logo on the left side you will see '''Application Basics.'''
Under this find '''Profile Folder.''' To it’s right press the button
'''Show Folder.''' This will open your file browser to the current
Firefox profile. Now '''Close Firefox.'''
Locate the file. Then rename or delete it. Restart Firefox.
