Firefox links that worked yesterday don't work today! Even html docs fail! Maybe a bad TSR is running. Big problem.

Both HTML docs and links dragged from Firefox now fail -- error msg: THERE WAS A PROBLEM SENDING THE COMMAND TO THE PROGRAM -- last night, I had no problem: both types worked fine -- I never shut my HP laptop down -- now I'm afraid to -- I won't even close my Firefox browser -- maybe a TSR is continuing to wreak havoc with my system -- please help soon.

If it looks anything like the sample here, that's unnecessary:

If what you see is substantially different, though, I'd be interested in seeing it. (I can't e-mail you, though, as I don't know your e-mail address. You can find mine, though, by looking at the contact link at the bottom of any page on my site, listed in my profile here.)
This is not a feature in adblock, I view it as a bug.
I agree, it should not be doing that.
My suspicion is that AdBlock works by adding this code to every page you view, thus rendering the advertising elements invisible. However, in the case of OWA, it must be inserting that code in a bad place, where it shows up in the message. Mail servers will be prone to rejecting such a message, probably because some of the strings that code uses to identify these ads might look malicious. There's nothing that I can see in that code that's actually malicious, though... just a bunch of CSS conditions that make matching elements invisible.

Links that use Javascript don't work after I updated Java; can I revert to earlier version?

I use private messaging to communicate with my doctor. I've always clicked a link ("Private Messaging") which opened a Java (Javascript?) window that displayed my messages and allowed me to write a message. A couple of days ago a message popped up saying that an update was available. I installed the update, now that link won't work. It is very important that I be able to access those messages, making this problem urgent. If anyone has any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it!
(I did the Java check recommended on the Mozilla website, and it shows that Java is working and up to date)

You can try basic steps like these in case of issues with web pages:
Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and the cookies from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Firefox uses the about: protocol to access built-in about: pages that you can open via the location bar just like you open web pages.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/About_protocol_links).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Click url links from email (thunderbird) don't work.

click url links embedded in email don't work. I tried the "fix" to go to thunderbird (email account) and follow tools-options-...but when I got to "advanced" it would not click. Clearing the "cache" seems to be important, but I'm not even sure that's the problem. It started to develop after I upgraded some add-on movie-audio feature to firefox. So, I suspect there is some incompatibility there. Please help.

Since posting, I figured it out with a google search - to simply find a way to identify firefox as my "Default browser" - apparently, any time you update windows or do add-ons from Bill Gates, he makes your computer take IE the default browser - so the clicking doesn't work from email on firefox. So, I went into the control panel for "default programs" and clicked again to make Firefox the one, re-booted and everything works fine now. I suspect that many people will find this approach very helpful when they get frustrated with the same problem. Thanks google!

Links in object states don't work

I have an object state with several text boxes, hyperlinks and buttons works fine, UNTIL i create buttons to control the object states appearance. Then the integrated links in the mso don't work.
Have tried with new document, new folio etc. As soon as I delete buttons to control the mso, the links works perfect. HELP please

Hi,
You can solve this problem putting the buttom outside the MSO. And recreate the links inside the MSO.

I continue to have problems with links in email, they don't Work.

I continue to have problems with links in email, they don't work. When I called apple support she said to hard boot by holding off and home keys and restart. However this is only since the new release of the operating system, it happens ever day and it's getting OLD.. Any solutions?

Yes, almost daily since the iOS update. Is there a permanent solution. And does the hard reboot hurt the iPad?

Links to external files don't work

Hello
Using RH 8.02 and converting linked Word docs (Word 2002) to WebHelp. These are policies and procedures that reference external documents.
In my Word doc I have a hyperlink to an external document. This doc is on a network server. In Word I added the hyperlink and it appeared as a relative path, such as ../RelatedDocs/RelDoc1.doc.
The referenced file is an external file, and I don't want to add it to RH because it may be updated; I just want to link to it so that a user gets the latest version.
When I update the HTML files in RH I see this in my HTML file:
<a href="file:////terminus/avbase_techsupport/av-base documents/supportmaster/documentationshare/relateddocs/reldoc1.doc">Related Doc 1</a>
This is the correct absolute path for the referenced file. Note the file://// prefix, with four forward slashes.
When I generate WebHelp, the link doesn't work. Nothing happens.
I tried the following:
1. Copied the whole path into my Windows Start > Run box and hit Enter. Nothing happens.
2. Removed two of the forward slashes and copied it again into the Run box. Now the file opens in Word.
I also tried removing the hyperlinks from the Word docs and adding them through RH instead. Same result.
Why does RH add four forward slashes to the prefix? What can I do to get these external links working?
Thanks for your help.

Hello Peter
I apologize for taking so long to respond. I just received a new computer with Vista and have had to set it up. Here is what happens:
1. In Word, I have a doc policy1.doc that contains a hyperlink to reldoc1.doc. The two files are in different folders. When I insert the link, Word shows it as a relative path ../RelatedDocs/reldoc1.doc. When I hover over it in the Word doc, it shows as an absolute path starting with file:///\\theserver, etc.
2. My RH project includes policy1.doc but not reldoc1.doc. I update policy1.doc in RH. In the HTML topic file (HTML view) the link is:
<a href="file:////theserver/path/reldoc1.doc">Link text</a>. Note the four forward slashes.
3. I save all project files and generate WebHelp.
4. In the resultant web page (in Firefox), I click the link in policy1 and nothing happens. The status bar shows the path the same as above.
5. I navigate to the output !SSL! and find the index page, and open it in Internet Explorer 8. The link shows in the status bar as file://theserver/path/reldoc1.doc, and when clicked IE opens the Word doc.
So in this case Firefox doesn't open the link but IE does.
Here is another scenario:
1. I have no links in myWord docs.
2. I generate topic files in RH using the linked Word docs.
3. In RH, in the HTML file for policy1 (policy1.htm) I add a link to reldoc1.doc. I choose the file protocol. RH asks me if I want to copy the doc into the project folder, and I say No.
4. I check the HTML for policy1.htm and see that it has the link as follows:
<a href="file://J:/Documents/rest of folder path/RelDoc1.doc">Related Doc 1</a>
(Going to Hyperlink Properties shows the same path.) Note the two forward slashes.
5. I save all files in the project and click Generate Primary Layout (which is WebHelp). A dialog asks if I want to update <some file or other, but I can't see which one because that darned dialog box is too small, but I expect it's policy1.htm>.
6. I say No. The output is generated and I view it in Firefox. The link works and has a path in the status bar as:
<a href="file://J:/Documents/rest of folder path/RelDoc1.doc">Related Doc 1</a>
Note the three forward slashes.
7. I view the index.htm file in IE and it works.
As a variant of the above, instead of saying No when asked if I want to update the file, I say Yes.
1.The HTML of policy1.htm now shows the link as:
<a href="file:////server/rest of path/reldoc1.doc">Related Doc 1</a>
Note the four forward slashes again.
2. The link is as shown in the status bar of Firefox is now set to:
<a href="file:////server/rest of path/reldoc1.doc">Related Doc 1</a>
It doesn't work.
2. The same link shown in IE status bar has two forward slashes (even though the source has four), and it works.
So in answer to your question, the link definitely changes within RH. The two browsers deal with things differently, with IE seeing a file://// link as file://.
Incidentally, I did some research on the file:// protocol and came up with:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_:_Issues_:_Links_to_Local_Pages_Don%27t_Work
The answer seems to be:
1. Add the links within RH.
2. Don't update when generating output.
3. If possible, get users to use IE instead of FF.
Either way, it's not very satisfactory for my purposes.

Roger

After uninstalling Google Chrome links in e-mail don't work any more

I have Firefox on my computer. I wanted to try out Chrome. After uninstalling Chrome and reinstating Firefox as my default browser, several things don't work properly, especially links in emails. I tried suggested solution of changing registry key for .html from ChromeHTML to htmlfile or FirefoxHTML but neither works. I just want to be able to click the link and open up the relevant web page.

As someone else has this problem I reply to my own question. Only uninstallling and reinstalling Firefox cures the problem.

Links in blog summary don't work

Hi,
Ever since I upgraded to iLife '08 any links that I post in my blog page don't work in the summary (or RSS feed). For some reason when iWeb creates the summary it changes the links. For instance a web gallery link may end in gallery#10005 and the summary link changes it to something like gallery%2516278 and as a result .Mac gives you a "can't find your page" page.
This very frustrating as there seems to be no way to fix the links in the summary (as it is created automatically). Does anyone else have this problem or know what might be going on here?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Did it happen only on those three entries or was it happening with new posts as well? (I had a harddrive failure and had to rebuild the site a while back so I think I have recreated the blog in iWeb '08.)
The fact that this is happening in my new posts is baffling.

Links in published website don't work.

The majority of links in my published website (both online and when published to a folder) won't work. However, unpublished they work fine.The navigation bar and picture links fail, except for the first two pages. I've checked to make sure the links are forwarded to the front.
http://web.mac.com/melaniermaxwell
Any thoughts?

Ok, I checked that one and it didn't work for me too.
So these are my thoughts:
-I think you protected your photos by putting a textfield or a shape in front of the photos and that one is covering the links and that's why they don't work. If you didn't protect them you might however have something in front of the links. Move it a bit downward so that it is on the photo put not on the links or delete it.
-There aren't any other photos to link to and that's why they are disabled.
However I think it's the first one because I get a strange highlighted area when I try to highlight.
If it's none if these I'm out of ideas, sorry! Maybe someone else has some more...

Created Menu in JS in Acobat 7.0 that works and Don't work in 9.2

I created a menu that does a "Save As" which converts pdf to jpeg in Acorbat 7.0 on XP Pro OS. In MS VBA code, I do the following VBA Code that execute the menu in Acrobat using "MenuItemExecute".
            Set gApp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")
            Set AVDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.AVDOC")
            If (AVDoc.Open(Path, Path)) Then
                Set AVPageView = AVDoc.GetAVPageView
                Set pdDoc = AVDoc.GetPDDoc()
                Set jso = pdDoc.GetJSObject
                'gApp.Show
                gApp.MenuItemExecute "SaveToJPEG"
                Set jso = Nothing
                pdDoc.Close
                Set pdDoc = Nothing
                AVDoc.Close (NoSave)
                Set AVDoc = Nothing
            End If
In order to run my custom Menu "SaveToJPEG" which is really a "Save As" to jpeg, I had to set the Edit>Preferences>JavaScript to "Enabled menu items JavaScripts execution privileges" and "Enable Acrobat JavaScript".    The above code works in my MS Access VBA program in Acrobat 7.0 running in XP Pro OS.
I am having problems running Acrobat 9.2 on Win 7 Pro, and I get the following error "An Internal Error Occurred" when it execute the code line gApp.MenuItemExecute "SaveToJPEG"
I made the changes to Edit>Preferences>JavaScript to "Enabled menu items JavaScripts execution privileges" and "Enable Acrobat JavaScript" too.
I am able to select "SaveToJPEG" from the menu bar only when I have a pdf file open, and it does make a jpeg !   This means my JavaScript of my menu works in Acrobat 9.2.
I also checked the registry HEY_KEY_Computer_User\software\adobe\adobe acrobat\9.0\JSPrefs\bEnableJS   ,   bEnableMenuItems, bEnableGlobalSecurity
The bEnableJS is Hex 1, and the bEnableMenuItems is Hex 1, and the bEnableGlobalSecurity is Hex 1
I do know that acrobat 9.0+ does have the ability in the menu to do the same thing, but I want to keep my code compatible with acrobat 7.0
Then the MenuItemExecute will not work in multiple menu flow down like Export>Image>Jpeg.   I would also appreciate how to reference this menu too !
Can someone please help me !!
ThankYou,

I got the app.listMenuItems() to work.   I have to use the lower right side Enter key. It appears that the two Enter keys don't work the same here.
I used the following script to list the menu items:
     var menuItems = app.listMenuItems()
     for( var i in menuItems)
     console.println(menuItems+ + "\n")
I got the following:   It was very long, but I will just print a few of them.   How do I spot the formal name for my "SaveToJPEG" menu item??? It is the second one.
This is what I see from app.listMenuItems() :
[cName:File, oChildren:[[cName:Open],[cName:SaveToJPEG],[cName:Organizer, oChildren:[[cName:OpenOrganizer],[cName:AddToOrganizer],[cName:OrganizerNewCollection]]], [cName:endOpenGroup],[cName:NewCollection],[cName:Collection, oChildren:[[cName:CollectionEditInAcrobat],[cName:],[cName:AddFilesToCollection],[cName:A ddFolderToCollection],[cName:CreateFolderInCollection],[cName:],[cName:SecureCollection]]] ,[cName:],[cName:NewDocument, oChildren:[[cName:NewDocFromFile],[cName:ScanMenu, oChildren:[[cName:ScanPreset1],[cName:ScanPreset2],[cName:ScanPreset3],[cName:ScanPreset4 ],[cName:Scan],[cName:],[cName:ScanConfigurePreset]]],[cName:Web2PDF:OpnURL],
It give me a message at the bottom that it "cannot continue printing to the console"
Can I send this to a file or some where else where I can see everything??   Maybe the formal names are toward the end ???   I don't see the formal name here????
Please Help ! !
Thank You,
Gary

Links to web gallery don't work from blog preview

I used the idea by somebody in this forum (sorry, forgot who!) to have a blog with each entry linking directly to the various different view options of the .mac web gallery, like this:
http://web.mac.com/kazazi/PiNoProductions/Photos/Entries/2007/9/1September2007.html
However, now the links don't work anymore from the blog preview, because the #and & characters in the web gallery's url get scrambled.
Does anybody know why this is or how I can fix this?

i have the same problem. has anyone fixed this?

iMac, eMac. They sound similar in every language but English! I'll get the Hosts to move this to the eMac section so you don't have to repost.
The good news is we have two eMacs in the family: one the first generation; one the last.
When you get the messages, what ports are you using? It is fairly normal for a flash drive to fail when plugged into a port on the keyboard (low-powered port). If you used a port on the right side of the eMac case, then it should work.
Have you experienced any other odd symptoms with the computer? Unexpected freezes, video defects, or no video, etc? I ask because a fair number of 1.25Ghz eMacs had near-fatal logic board problems. As odd as the symptoms of the logic board problems seemed to be, it would no longer surprise me if it affected USB. If you are seeing other problems than this, I can post a list of serial numbers that Apple said contains the affected computers.

What functions work and don't work when roaming?

I was out of town on the weekend, and I had to use roaming. Now, I was finding that sometimes my Blackberry Internet Service was available and sometimes it wasn't. What was most puzzling was that sometime the web-browser would work without BIS available, and sometimes it wouldn't. It seemed to do both depending on time of day from the same location. I have a little weather applet in my Blackberry Bold, and again it was sometimes working, and sometimes it wasn't.
It was all pretty puzzling, what's the real answer here? Do Internet-based apps work or don't they when there's regular cellular data services available, but not BIS?

Hi bbb167,
Your provider will best be able to answer any questions on what services are available when roaming. Some internet based applications may require a BlackBerry Internet Service connection to function and some may be able to use your carrier's browser or a Wi-Fi connection. You may want to check with each vendor for the connection requirements of their application.
