Hyperlink edit problem

I've been publishing a business directory using InDesign for 18 years. Acquired CS6 last year and, with help, directory has been posted as an interactive file with internal and external hyperlinks (more than 1,000). When saving the original document as an .swf file, the command, Convert all URLs to Hyperlinks was used. At that point, all email addresses became mailto:name@url. Publication worked well.
When I attempted to edit changed addresses in the Edit Hyperlink window, that window opened with the Shared Extension option as default and the box checked. Selecting Email from the drop down menu gives me 2 new, blank windows: Address & Subject. I type the new address in exactly. When I click OK, the @ sign is somehow converted to %40 which is visible in the Hyperlinks window when the cursor is placed on the Hyperlink number. When I upload the saved document to the website, the old address hasn't been changed and only the URL is active. In the 2 instances when the address was corrected, the URL was different from the website URL in the listing. I have tried unchecking the Shared Destination box, but that does not seem to matter.
I have tried erasing the old address completely, entering the new, but then, when using the New Hyperlink option, the same thing happens with the @ sign. The very competent web designer who helped in the beginning, cannot duplicate the problem and is unable to offer a solution. I'm using a new Mac Mini. She uses a PC with InDesign from the "cloud". If anyone has some experience with or insight into this challenge, please help! My 74-year-old brain's usual Mac "intuition" is failing me on this one.

Yes, this is due to the way Keynote creates the QuickTime movie. Because of how the sprite track is constructed, it will keep looping the first section over and over until the entire movie is loaded.
If you have QuickTime Pro, you can use the sprites here
http://homepage.mac.com/qt4web/sprites/items.html
to make the movie start and stop as well as play smoothly WHILE the movie is downloading, as you can see here.

Font / text edit problem in photoshop CS6

Hi there,
I have a strange text edit problem in Photoshop CS6 running on Mavericks.
Every time I use the text-tool in PS, write a sentence, mark it and change something like color, font size etc., the marked text vanishes.
I have to "undo" the last step and the changed text appears again.
Every time!
I have a clean installed CS6 with no plugins and no other than system fonts installed.
Everything on a new Mac Pro with OS X 10.9.5
Any clues? Thanks.

Do you have the latest updates for photoshop cs6?
You can use Help>Updates from within photoshop cs6 to check if there are any available.
Also, if you go to Help>System Info from within photoshop cs6, you can see the Photoshop Version in the top line.
You should be on version 13.0.6
See if turning off Dictation solves the issue.
Go to System Preferences ---> Dictation and Speech -----> select OFF radio button .

Hi
Not sure if this is a Fireworks or Dreamweaver problem but
here goes.
I¹ve created a graphic in Fireworks CS3 on the Mac and
Exported the HTML and
related images. I open the HTML file in Dreamweaver CS3, all
fine so far.
Then I highlight the table and click the Edit in
Fireworks¹ button and it
throws up a warning dialogue saying Cannot launch and
edit. The Fireworks
table could not be found in the HTML. Please export from
Fireworks and
re-import the HTML into Dreamweaver.¹
What?!!
I¹ve only just exported it from Fireworks! It¹s
even got the Fireworks table
code in the Code section, so what¹s going here?
Has anyone else had this?

When you export the sliced graphics from Fireworks it places
them into a
table. In my instance the code says...

So it recognises Fireworks was the the graphics app and jumps
back to it
when you want to edit the image. Fireworks then displays (or
should) a
Done¹ button over the window. You do your alts and
press Done to update the
HTML and graphics back in Dreamweaver automatically.
That¹s the only table I was referring to Murray.

Premiere Pro 7.1 serious Multicam Editing problems

Hello, I am posting here because the bug report I filed one week ago to Adobe didn't give a result -no response at all from the bug department.
I have two serious Multicam Editing Problems.
PC Configuration: Core i7950, Asus P6TD Deluxe, 12GB DDR3 1600MHZ, Quadro K4000, SSD for the system, Seagate Constellation 7200rpm for video editing.
1. When multicam mode is on at the program monitor, I press play and the program doesn't respond at all. The timeline plays till the end and the program just doesn't let you do anything but wait until playback of the whole timeline is over. Then the program works again (no "not responding" message in Windows).
2. Sometimes the waveform doesn't even appear at the multicam audio clip. I read in other forums that this problem is found specifically at Premiere Pro version 7.1 (October release).
I would be grateful with your help.
Thank you,
Stavros Symeonidis

The media is always a combination of HD .MOV (dSLR footage and .MTS (from my Sony Vg-30). However, I also tested it with .mpeg files created by "match sequence settings". GPU acceleration is always on, as I use nVidia Quadro K4000 with the latest drivers (331.82).
I always create the multicam sequences manually and the problem occurs with any amount of camera angles.
The problem was not solved by reinstaling Windows (7 and 8). In general, I have no other issue with my PC system, except from this specific one.
It doesn't appear always, however it will definitely happen if you press twice or three times the letter L, to fast forward the preview of your Multicam Sequence.
I remind you that this only happens when multicam monitor is toggled at the program monitor.
Did all these help at all to even reproduce this situation?
Thank you,
Stavros Symeonidis

FC studio2 editing problems with western digital my book home for mac

hi--bought a 1TB WD my book home for mac coupla years ago because it seemed like a good deal for so much space, and provided and eSATA hookup, too. Worked ok for a while. Now, with a growing Motion project that I bring into FC for overall color/levels/export adjustments, I'm getting a long-term beachball every time I try to do anything with it. Just did a complete reinstall of FC studio (after running Techtool pro 5 rebuild and optimizing files and volume), trashed the project and recreated it incase the file itself was corrupted, but the beachball keeps showing up once i try to get past a particular edit and play the file through -- something I haven't had problems with before. Have read this harddrive is a real POS/PIA for many because of its internal "sleep" setting and other weaknesses, and am thinking of cracking the drive out of its case and putting it into a plain eSATA/FireWire enclosure. Anybody else tried this or heard of it working? Money's a big issue right now (too many slow/no pay clients), so can't just run out and get a new drive and transfer w/out trying cheaper route first. Would appreciate feedback, cuz this is makin' me lose what little hair i got left!

My question says: "Final Cut Studio 2 editing problems"; I formatted the drive for the mac when i bought it: journaled HFS+, Apple Partition Map; 2 partitions (and connected via eSATA); which has been working fine as is up till now. The sequence and settings are those in which I've worked on many projects for years with no problems up until now. I am also completely up-to-date with all my app and system updates. I did begin to wonder after posting if the reinstall might be the source of my problems, but it was the interminable beachball waits that prompted the reinstall in the first place.

Word 2007 to Adobe 8 or Adobe 9 hyperlink conversion problems.

My company has about 40 Adobe Professional licenses.
I cannot get my Word 2007 hyperlinks to convert during a pdf package process. I have tried so many things like changing all the docx to pdf extensions in each of the links either manually or through ReplaceMagic product. I have moved all the 200 procedures into one directory instead of their separate sub directories. I have run document inspector to clean out all but the headers/footers. I keep getting errors usually with "Documents and Settings" as part of the file path. My project is an "Operations and Procedures Manual" with over 200 procedures that have tons of hyperlinks to each other and a directory of about 170 forms (they don't need to be part of the package...just referenced). The procedures we want to open up in pdf format so that they can be searched and cross referenced for terms like "flare" or "safety. The forms we want to remain in Word format for now. I have a table of contents that works great as far as the hyperlinks go when accessing from Word. We need to put this out to over 100 laptops and some desktops in a timely manner. The editing process we can tackle latter...it is this publishing process we need help on.
A side bar problem is that I found a procedure with a problem so I deleted it from the pdf package, went to Word and fixed it (accepted track changes). When I reinserted it back into the package in pdf form, it throws it to the top of my navigation panel instead of numerically with the 10's procedures. I can use the option button at the bottom to sort numerically but it won't stay put after I exit and come back in.
One last problem is that some converted pdfs reflect page 1 of 1, 2 of 2 instead of the 1 of 2 and 2 of 2 as it did in Word. I have reopened the original documents, but can't see any difference between the ones that work and the ones that don't.
My current directory structure is
c:\KRGT Operations and Maintenance Manual
C:\KRGT Operations and Maintenance Manual\10's Administration
C:\KRGT Operations and Maintenance Manual\20's Compression
\KRGT Operations and Maintenance Manual\Forms
The Table of Contents is in KRGT Operations and Maintenance Manual.
We need to do edits on this so...the many hundreds of links need to stay in tact.
Any answers would really help me out and make my day..week..month. Thanks for any response.

A few ideas:
I cannot get my Word 2007 hyperlinks to convert during a pdf package process.
In Word, make sure your Adobe PDF conversion setting include Add Links. Adobe PDF > Change Conversion Settings > Settings tab, Application Settings area, check Add Links.
I keep getting errors usually with "Documents and Settings" as part of the file path......We need to put this out to over 100 laptops and some desktops in a timely manner.
In your example files, many of the links are pointing to your temporary directory. This will cause problems. You need to relink to the proper folder location. For this to work for other employees, the folder location must be accessible by all on the network.
I can use the option button at the bottom to sort numerically but it won't stay put after I exit and come back in.
You can choose how your portfolio is initially sorted (screenshot.52).
One last problem is that some converted pdfs reflect page 1 of 1, 2 of 2 instead of the 1 of 2 and 2 of 2 as it did in Word.
This is often the result of images or document elements extending into the header and footer area. Check and correct this. You will likely see that it happens when printing to paper as well.

Forms 9i FRM-40738 Hyperlink Bean problem

Hello,
I've this error coming please help me.
I needed to see, how a bean is integerated in Forms 9i. I was
searching through the example at metalink and it gave me a
paper
"How to Integerate HyplerLink Bean in forms 9i", what steps
i followed are given in that paper.
Now when i run the form, it gaves me the error
FRM-40738 Argument to Built in SET_CUSTOM_PROPERTY CANNOT BE NULL.
the steps i followed are
1- I created a form called hyperlink.fmb
2- Then i created a ON LOGON trigger at this form
3- I opened the canvas and draw a Bean Area on it
4- Then i renamed that Item to Hyperlink by Property Plattelete
5- I named the canvas CONTROL
6- Then at module level i created a TRIGGER WHEN_NEW_FORM_INSTANCE and put following PL.SQL code in it
DECLARE
hHyperlink ITEM := FIND_ITEM('CONTROL.HYPERLINK');
BEGIN
FBEAN.Register_Bean( hHyperlink, 1, 'oracle.forms.demos.beans.Hyperlink');
FBean.Invoke( hHyperlink, 1, 'setURL', 'http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms');
FBean.Invoke( hHyperlink, 1, 'setLabel', 'Forms on OTN');
FBean.Enable_Event( hHyperlink, 1, 'actionListener', true );
END;
7-Then i created a Trigger at CONTROL.HYPERLINK, that was
WHEN_CUSTOM_ITEM_EVENT and put the following code in it
DECLARE
vcEventData varchar2(256);
BEGIN
vcEventData := Fbean.Invoke_Char('CONTROL.HYPERLINK', 1, 'getURL');
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT(vcEventData, '_blank');
END;
Then did the following steps of the locating the bean by the
JAR method.
Method 1 - The JAR Method:
a. Locate the hyperlink.jar file located in D:\9iDS\forms90\demos\hyperlink\classes.
b. Move the hyperlink.jar file to 9iDS_HOME\forms90\java.
c. Find the formsweb.cfg file in 9iDS_HOME\forms90\server.
d. Add the following configuration section to the file:
[hyperlink]
archive_jini=f90all_jinit.jar,hyperlink.jar
width=675
height=480
separateFrame=false
splashScreen=no
lookAndFeel=oracle
colorScheme=blue
The archive_jini parameter pointing to hyperlink.jar is the most important part
of this configuration.
e. Now go into Form Builder and accomplish the following:
Edit->Preferences->Runtime Tab
Add the config parameter to your "Application Server URL". It should look
something like this:
http://machine.domain:port/forms90/f90servlet?config=hyperlink
Then i compiled it and ran it, Now it gives this error
FRM-40738 Argument 1 to built in SET_CUSTOM_PROPERTY cannot
be null.
P.S I have set the implementation class property but, still i don't know
whats the problem, and where i am making mistake, please help me.
Please any help will be appreaciated.
Sincerely
Tensed Beginner

Hover Hyperlink State in Drop-Down Menu and other Hyperlink display problems

Hi World!
So, I'm finishing my new website for a client, but a have some problems:
At first:
I putted a Drop-Down Menu and it contains hyperlinks. Normal. But, I can't give a specific state to each hyperlink in the under-menus, I only can put a state for the global link in the Under-Menu! I can put a hover state to a normal HyperLink but not those into a Drop-Down Menu! It is normal?
How can I make that each link in the Under-Menu has a specific hover state and not all together in the same group! (pictures jointed)
(what I want to do with the links into the menu. - Juste a picture, not from A-Muse)
Then:
When I want to manage my website on BusinessCatalyst, I see strange underlines under my Menu links! (picture). But on Adobe Muse, I see no underline to these links! What's the matter? ^^
(when it's on the prewiew mode)
(On A-Muse)
RESOLVED! But not completely. I've made a Hyperlink-style, but it doesn't works...
On the prewiew (with the hovering mouse)
EDIT: In the menu, "Accueil" and *Gérants Indépendants" musn't open another window under. So I made independent forms on the menu. But can I make that those one are in the menu TOO? I don't want to open the blue window for those one.
Thanks a lot!
O.

http://metisfiance.businesscatalyst.com/
That's the link!
No I just can't "activate" the hover-modes, like the pictures! Normally, Adobe Muse must be easy to use and i used Muse like I have to do and so,.. It doesn't work^^ Why? You have now the link, I hope you can help me

Anyone have problems or any solutions to this "editing" snafu????

Darn Windows Vista!
Screwing up the file/folder permissions due to the hated UAC feature!

SAP ISA R/3 Edition problem with TREX

Hi!
We are migration our Internet Sales (R/3 Edition) 4.0 with SAP J2EE Engine 6.20 to SAP J2EE Engine 6.40.
Weve already migrate your Java Basket data. And weve installed TREX 6.1
for catalogue replication and weve created a WEB SITE in IIS.
Weve created a B2B scenario and weve configured xcm for: b2b, Shopadmin
and trexr3.
Apparently TREX is working fine... I can create and replicate catalogs, view the catalogs within TREX, etc. But I'm getting the following error when I try to see the content of catalog within http://10.125.25.57:50100/trexr3/b2x/admin/catalog.do.
Exception from the PCAT API: Index has not been assigned to this
IndexServer;location=sapisaqld01:30203,index=index_id1204052895687pindex(Errorcode 2004) Retrieval of trex index failed!
I've just updated TREX 6.1 to SP33 and the problem persists.
We can find the following messages within TREXindexserverAlert.trc:

Any hints?

Hi Dick,
Guess how I solve this problem?
Well.... I've reinstalled SAP TREX 6.1 SP33 and started from scratch.

Editing problem in PSE 12

I have recently updated to PSE 12 and have (at least) two problems.
First, the edited versions of images edited in Photo Editor do not save to Organizer or Version Set, although they do appear in the relevant Windows folder. I have checked the various settings in the Save function and they appear to correct. This problem does not arise if I use Instant Fix.
Second, tags in the People, Places and Events groups do not appear when Remove Keyword Tag is clicked, even though they are visible on the screen with the relevant image and work normally to select images. However, tags in the Keyword group do appear normally when Remove Keyword Tag is selected.
I have tried the Catalog Repair function and it tells me that there is nothing to repair.
If I move the images to a different (new) catalog created in PSE12, the problems disappear. This is not a solution to my problem as I have far too many images to organise in a new catalog.
The problems also disappear if I use PSE 10 on the same images.
Advice welcome.

different way, so that the tags are preserved (or is it too late to do
this?)
Maurice
Maurice,
Reinstalling is not a solution. I suppose you still have PSE10 and that you have not done many additions and changes to your catalog since upgrading.
To understand why I was not bothered by the migration of people and events tags from PSE10 to PSE11, remember that you can rename categories as you wish, even if they are default categories in PSE10. With my English PSE version, I had renamed People = Personnes, Family = Famille, Friends = amis, and so on. Since the catalog conversion is based on the default category names, the conversion ignored those pre-defined categories et considered them as custom ones.
So, just try to rename the categories in PSE10; MyPeople instead of People, MyEvents instead of Events and so on. Then from PSE12 (would be the same for PSE11) convert again the catalog from the catalog manager menu of PSE12. You have to check the box to 'show already converted catalogs'. That should convert it to the old way. You may have to re-import new items, but that should not be too big a problem.

Can't edit audio tracks anymore FLEX EDIT PROBLEM

Due to year long problems with my Mac, Apple replaced it with a brand new one but it came with the updated Garageband '11 with Flex Time. I currently have a podcast and am over a month behind and because I can't figure out this new audio/flex time edit thing. It appears that I am not the only one on disccussion forums and YouTuve but I need HELP!
PROBLEM: I can't edit tracks. Flex Time turns on and analyzes over and over and over and over. I can't edit or cut things out. It wants to stretch them out! HELP!
FLEX TIME is terrible.

Red eye editing problem

Hi all, I am new here and this has probably been asked and answered but I have not been able to find the answer yet, so please don't slam me to hard for asking for help. The problem I am having is with photos that have red eye in the original. I can edit the red eyes out and the photos look fine on my new imac but when I e-mail to friends they can't believe that the photos I send them have big black eyes. I am guessing it is something to do with the red eye editing. Am I doing something wrong or do I need to use a different program for red eye edits on photos that I send to others, particularly Windows users?
Thanks so much in advance for any help.
Jim Morris

turtle21:
Log into another account on your MBP and see if the problem persists when using iPhoto there. If it does then it's system wide. If the problem is gone then you've narrowed it down to your account.
If it's system wide the 10.4.0 COMBO updater that TD suggested would be the first thing to try. Next to that would be as reinstall of iPhoto. If or when you do try a reinstall of iPhoto you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder. The reapply the updaters in the following order: 6.0.4, 6.0.5 and 6.0.6. The last two require the previous version to run.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Strange editing problems in Mail

I have been having two quirks in Mail while editing.
When composing emails I sometimes send several articles from online sources such as NY Times. After copying into mail, I delete the garbage such a "print" links from the original. If I do not select just right, Mail deletes everything from there to the top of the email instead of just the highlighted text.
When responding to an email I received, I do a reply and then add text at various places through out the original. At times I will click some place to enter text but the entry point will be in a completely different place. Areas of text appear to be inaccessible even though I can see them. Later the problem may go away although I am not sure what I did to cause it.
And of course the problems are not always consistent.
Is this just a quirk that I have to live with, it is a bug I should jus report [where?] or is there something to do about it? I have found ways to work around these problems most of the time, but sometimes I forget and the results are not what I thought that I was sending.

IPhoto editing problems

I'm have an iPhoto problem. I'm currently in version5.0.4 (263). In
edit mode when I try to bring up a photo with a date before October
2005 I get the spinning gear wheel and the image never loads. The
thumb nail is at the top of the page but the large, editable
picture doesn't load. There are only a very few photos pre-10/05
that will load. (All photos after that date seem to work fine.)
I went to the iPhoto library to check out those photos and find
that the information is available for the photo but under "Size" it
says "Zero KB on disk". However, on the iPhoto information window (lower left) the same photo's size is 1.5MB.
I tried opening some photos is Preview and Photoshop. In Preview I
get a blank screen. In Photoshop I get this message: "Could not complete your request because a JPEG marker segment lenth is too short (the file may be truncated or incomplete)."
So, it seems like the thumbnail is still intact but the main file
is gone. Fortunately, I have all my photos backed up. But if I'm
going to use iPhoto (which I would like to do) I need to solve the
problem. I figure either there is problem with the software, or I
did something wrong in handling the photos.
In regards to the second, the only thing I can think of that might
effect the library is when I backed up. At this point I don't
remember the procedure I followed. But, if I dragged the folders
from the library to an external hard drive without making a copy,
would that remove the original information from the iPhoto library?
Any help on this will be appreciated.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the standard fix: delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, launch iPhoto and try again.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.
