How do place a file for download from our server?

I have some pdf forms that I place on a site, but I had the set up as hyperlinks to webpages so that they opened up in browsers. This isn't good because the pdfs are forms to be filled out and we've had a variety of problems with people trying to fill them out or print from the browser.
I want them to download the file to their harddrive and open in abode reader. I saw from another post that you can point the hyperlink to a file but I don't want them to download from my computer but from our server. How do I do that?

As Dani notes, by default the user's browser is going to decide what to do with a PDF. Most browser's today choose to display a PDF inline.
There's no seamless way to force a download of a PDF file within Muse, but it's possible to do by writing some PHP or editing some configuration on your webserver.

How do I open a site in Muse that has already been downloaded from our server to my harddrive.

Ho do I open a site in Muse that has already been downloaded from our server to my hardrive?

Muse can open .muse files only. Sites downloaded to your hardrive as HTML cannot be imported to Muse. Pages need to be designed in Muse in order to be saved as a Muse project that you can always publish to the web.

After "restore," how do I get the messages "downloaded from the server?"

I restored my entire mail folder, after I accidentally deleted it. It has restored the message headings, but every message (when I click on the heading) gives me a message that says "The message from "name of person" has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it." I have no idea what this means, as I am connected to the internet all the time. Can someone help? This is an important file for me.

My Mail program is a .Mac account, so it is an IMAP, I believe.
O.k, this is what happened: In Mail 2.1.3, I tried to rename a file, and it didn't like that and did some funny things, so I deleted what I thought was a duplicate file by the same name. Then everything was gone. I restored it using Backup 3.1.2, but it wouldn't finish restoring to the original places, as it said that the "archive was busy...etc." I then went online to this site: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1158 and followed the directions for an incremental "restore."The backup was now in a folder on my desktop. The article did not tell me what to do with these restored items after I had them on the desktop so I tried to drag and drop one of the smaller folders into Mail on the Hard Drive, but that didn't work to put them in the mail program on my desktop. I then followed a similar story line (from you, actually) on April 3 in which you gave directions to "Nanbirder." I followed those directions, and then the message headings were imported by Mail, but not the messages, and here we are with this mess.
I hope you can help me with this; it's a nightmare!!

Authorware Web Player won't download from our server

We have used the same code to download the 2004 web player
successfully from our server since 2005. Recently however, during
the download, the player starts, but it hangs at the point where
the progress bar with the label "Loading Files" displays. This
happens on a client pc that has no Authorware web player files in
Downloaded Program Files, System32\Macromed\Authorwa, and Documents
and Settings...\Authoware Web Player directories. We can download
successfully to the same pc from the Adobe server. I'd appreciate
very much any advice that the experts have.

Any changes to your server? Not that I'd have any particular
solution if
so, but it's something to check into. Windows Server 2003
needs MIME
Types to be added...but missing those results in specific
errors, I
think, not just a freeze at the 'loading files' screen.
Can other machines download from your server ok? Could it be
something
specific to this client machine?
What browser on the client machine? Do any other browsers
work?
This problem has been linked to popup blockers in some
situations. For
some reason, popup blockers can prevent the web player from
showing the
security dialog, which tries to show before any content is
actually
loaded. Try turning off any blockers that may be present or
adding your
server location to the blocker 'allowed' sites.
However, if that was the problem, I'd think it would occur
while loading
the player from both your server *and* Adobe's server.

How to disable "This file was downloaded from the internet" prompts?

They're annoying. I always say "yes" and I think they cause problems sometimes when I use these files with Terminal. How do I get rid of them, if I can?

If you do that, you may lose the new XProtect malware detection feature as well. See

Specific version of jre in .jnlp file and downloading from local server

Hi,
I have couple of questions regarding the specific version of jre in Java WebStart.
1) I have specified the jre version in .jnlp file as below.
<resources>
<j2se version="1.3.1_02"/>
</resources>
When I saw the File/Preferences/Java of Java WebStart installation, there is an entry with the "Product Version" value as 1.3.1_02 as I installed jre also before launching my application. Still it complains as,
The application has requested a version of the Java 2 platform (JRE) that is currently not locally installed. Java Web Start was unable to automatically download and install the requested version. The JRE version must be installed manually.
Error Code 11 (11 Could not locate requested version) returned from server when accessing resource: (http://java.sun.com/products/autodl/j2se, 1.3.1_02)
When it is there already, why it is trying to get from the Sun's site.
2) I want Java WebStart to download the specified version of jre from my local server, I specified this in the following way,
<resources os="Windows">
<j2se version="1.3.1_02" href="http://host:9095/j2re-1_3_1_02-win.exe"/>
</resource>
I got the error saying,
Bad MIME type returned from server when accessing resource: (http://host/j2re-1_3_1_02-win.exe, 1.3.1_02) - application/octet-stream. where host is my server name. What I need to do here.
Can I have multiple resource tags one for each os.
Help is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sreedhar.

Hi Sreedhar,
There are some other useful threads in this forum on this topic:
the "Automatically Installing the IBM JRE 1.2.2" thread has tips from somebody who's put together auto-download of JREs from his own web site:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=38&thread=71061
Also, the behavior of the j2se tag is discussed a little in the "Using a specific JRE" thread: http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=38&thread=158075
The first step is to add an href attribute to your j2se tag. I was just experimenting with this this afternoon,
and it appears that unless that href is specified (even if it's the java.sun.com default autodl URL!) JWS will not properly check locally-installed 1.3.1 JREs. Once you include Sun's autodl URL as an href, JWS will at least properly enforce the product version among locally-installed JREs. Of course, Sun doesn't actually include 1.3.1 in its autodl section, so it won't download it for you, but it will enable checking of the JREs already installed.
The second step is downloading JREs from your own web site, which is more complicated and explained better by other messages in the forum. But basically, JWS is not simply looking for a .exe installer for a particular JRE. It hits the webserver with a query and expects the webserver to give it back an installer's JNLP file. Look at the referenced threads for more details.

How do I change platform for downloading and installing Photoshop Elements from Windows to Mac?

As long as your license supports both platforms you should only have to download the Mac version and install/activate using your serial number. If you need help finding a link to download the file, please indicate the PSE version you need.

How do I add a PDF file for download to my iWeb page?

How do I add a PDF file for download to my iWeb page?
I have created one using Apples Pages program.
Thanks!

Hi-
You need to create a text link to the file...
On your page, type a word that you want to be the link... then select the word, and in the inspector pane, click the link tab (the arrow on the far right) and check "enable as hyperlink." Then choose "file" from the dropdown menu and a chooser box will open for you to locate the file on your hard drive.
Choose the file by clicking "open" once it's located. Then the next time you publish, the file will be uploaded and linked to!
Hope this helps... I think I got all the steps in there!

I upgraded to Firefox 8.0.1 on may MacBook OSX 10.6.8 and not all files I download from my Outlook Web app are ashx file, not what they were originally sent in. How do I change this ?

I have just upgraded to Firefox 8.0.1 on may MacBook (10.6.8) and now all files I download from my Outlook Web app labeled attachment.ashx, not as they were originally sent (.docx, .pdf, etc). How do I change this back?

I'm going to back up to Firefox 7 next. I'm getting the drift that 8.0.1 and/or flash on 8.0.1 are unstable.
I'll let you know if that solves this problem.
NOPE. This had no effect.

Files recently downloaded from Canon Legeria FS306 do not play the audio. Can hear audio on camera or downloading same files to a PC. Also hear audio on earlier files downloaded from same camera to iMovie '11. How do I avoid problem & recover lost audio?

Files recently downloaded from Canon Legeria FS306 to iMovie '11 do not play the audio. I can still hear audio on the camera or by downloading the same files to a PC. Can also hear audio on earlier files downloaded from the same camera to iMovie '11. How do I avoid this problemand recover lthe ost audio?

The first thing to try is to run Software Update (the Update tab in the Mac App Store.). This was an issue a couple of releases ago, and an update seemed to fix it.
If you are already at the most recent version of iMovie, then I don't know how to solve you issue. Maybe someone else will have some ideas.

Error in maintenence optimizer while selecting files for download for EHP4

HI,
We are trying to download files for upgrade of ECC (HCM) and Portal systems from EHP3 to EHP4.
This download we are doing through the Solman 7.0. Solman is currently at 7.0 but going to be upgraded soon to EHP1.
Problem is that after we select the files for download of ECC EHP4, in step 2.1 i.e. 'choose stack', the next screen shows error as "Only one EhP release is allowed additionally".
Is this because the Solman is not upgraded to EHP1 yet or soem other reason?
Please let us know.
Thanks for your time.
Thanks & Regards,
Kunal.

..have a look at the How-To Install EHP4 Guide (http://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700000293582009E.PDF)
3.4.2 Only one EHP release is allowed
Issue: You get the error message: u201COnly one EHP release is allowedu201D
Reason: This problem is documented in SAP Note 1139602.
If you get this error message, then you already have installed another SAP enhancement package on this system before (for example SAP enhancement package 3 for SAP ERP 6.0).
The error tells you that you have chosen too few technical usages. If you continued with this selection, you would not update all of the software components to SAP enhancement package 4 that are currently on SAP enhancement package 3. So in the end, some software components would be on SAP enhancement package 3 while others would be on SAP enhancement package 4. That way you would have several SAP enhancement package versions in one system, which is a state that is not supported.
Solution: SAP Solution Manager Maintenance Optimizer requests you to select more technical usages and proposes a list for you to choose from.
If you implement SAP Note 1287216, then Maintenance Optimizer automatically pre-selects the technical usages that are already installed on the system. In the example here, the technical usage Central Applications has been installed on a previous version of SAP enhancement packages.
In rare cases you still get the error after accepting what SAP Solution Manager proposes. The reason for this is that you updated software components without properly covering technical usages.
Hope that helps - best regards,
Christian.

Weblogic Integration Sample is available for download from developer site

Hi, All,
The Weblogic Integration 2.0 Sample is available for download from the
developer site:
http://developer.bea.com/ftp_bin/download/code/wliSample_1.zip
This sample shows how to develop a standard based integration solution
within and across enterprises using the key functionalities of the WebLogic
Integration 2.0, including Business Process Management (BPM), Enterprise
Information System (EIS) connectivity, inter-enterprise collaboration
(B2Bi), and XML/non-XML data transformation.

It shoud not took 3 hours. Normally, you expect wait for 1 -2 minutes.
For your case, I suggest to
(1)run the cleanWF.cmd script then shutdown the server
(2)restart the server
(3) run cleanWF again
(4) run the sample.
let me know if you still have problems

Chunbo/Henry,
While running the WLI sample, I have been waiting for a QPA Reponse frommy
suppliers for about three hours, is this expected behavior? I havechecked the
weblogic.log file and there are no exceptions. I seem to be stuck on the
"Check QPA Reponse" screen. This was addressed briefly in the user guide,
however, it didn't say how long you should wait. Please advise, thanks.
