Hyperlink Short Name vs URL

Is there a way to display a short name instead of the full URL when dragging/dropping URLs into template textboxes? I'd like to add URLs this way in order to retain formatting within the textbox, which creating an HTML snippet does not do.
I'm using iWeb'08
Cheers

This is what Roddy's referring to:
Click to view full size
Select the short name and go to the Inspector/Link/Hyperlink pane.

.exception.JspParseExcept Cannot parse custom tag with short name [out].

Hi
     I have almost migrated an application from jboss to CE 7.1 sp3 maxdb 32 bit
     however I am getting the following error on c:out tag of standard jslt.
Runtime error in processing of the JSP file [C:\usr\sap\CE1\J00\j2ee\cluster\apps\<....>\servlet_jsp\<application_context_name>\root\jsp\view\<jsp_name>.jsp].
Line:----
The error is: com.sap.engine.services.servlets_jsp.jspparser_api.exception.JspParseException: Cannot parse custom tag with short name [out].02004C4F4F50001F0000002D000012B000B0688132009833
Line:----
Do anybody have some idea why is it happening.
My guess would be because of jslt version mismatch. but its working fine in jboss. I am not sure what version cE 7.1 support may be 1.2. any idea how to chek the supported version in the server.
The jsp code is something like
Line:----
<code>
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="c_rt" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core_rt" %>
<c:url var="thumbnailStream" value="/do/<action_tag>">
           <c_rt:param name="stream_id"      value="<%= <variable1> %>"/>
           <c:param    name="stream_id_type" value="<variable2>"/>
           <c:param    name="content_kind"   value="<variable3>"/>
        </c:url>
<img border="0" src="<c:out value="$"/>">
</code>
Line:----
from the SAP help text its said that jslt is being overrided by server to use from global library rather than local webapplication library. Couls woud explain where is this global library located in the server directory.
Thx.

How best to display Company name and URL.

I want to display my company name and URL throughout short videos to be posted on YouTube. I would like them to be nonintrusive, lower right corner, small font. Should I follow the Apple instructions for adding a watermark (but I'm not using a logo)? Or do I treat it like a title (but how do I get it to display for the entire video?)? Thank you for any help.

Here is more on the YouTube options (and its limitations).

How to make a short name of iweb

Hi.. anyone have an idea to make a short name of iweb when my friends ask about " what's your web name... I cant remember cause it too long " like mind ... http://web.mac.com/jokertgfoto/iWeb/joker/Welcome.html how can I make....http://[email protected] . I need mac to solve this help too. Many thanks

Well, as far as telling people about your iWeb URL, all you have to tell them is the short iWeb URL...
http://web.mac.com/jokertgfoto
This will always lead to your default starting homepage, which is set in the SiteOrganizer in iWeb. So you don't have to specify the rest of the URL as you have typed out....that's an improvement already, isn't it?
But if you like, you can get register for you own domain name at any number of places like GoDaddy or Yahoo or 1&1...there are LOTS of domain registrars. This should cost somewhere in the vicinity of $10 a year. Then once you have your domain name, you can setup a feature of domain names called "Domain Forwarding". This will link your domain name to your iWeb URL so that anyone who types your domain name, like http://www.jokertgfoto.com will get taken directly to http://web.mac.com/jokertgfoto
I hope this answers your question, but feel free to post back if you need any clarification.

Hyperlink destination names disappear when incopy stories returned to designer

in indesign cs3 i made a bunch of links in a catalog i'm working on, within chapters, between chapters and to urls. incopy stories were packaged and sent to the editor. when the package was returned after edits, and stories in indesign were updated, the hyperlink destination names all disappeared and became generic. this is a major impact on meeting my deadline. did i mess up? is this a bug? any and all suggestions are welcome.
thanks!

is there some way i can send a pdf to show you what happens? not sure that would help, but it's maybe worth a try.

IMail: How can I set mail preferences to display actual email address and not short names.

Even though I have it correctly set in Preferences , i.e. "Use Smart Addresses" is unchecked, the addressee automatically changes to the person's name rather than the email address. I am unable to find a way to display the actual email address option on iMail (Yosemite) I do not want nicknames/short names but want the actual email address to display on my address line. Can anyone advise please?

Thanks, Ernie
I wasted about 20 minutes looking for it and couldn't find it

Can I Change Home Name and Short Name This Way (Safely)?

Tried this question a couple weeks ago and got 0 replies in the Admin/Accounts section, so I'm revising and trying here. Please help!
Let me see if I can make this simple.
Small office environment; 2 Mac (G4's); Airport network. I am admin on both computers. My employee is admin on his computer as well, but not on mine. Each of us has data we use on our own computer but we can access data from the other computer when necessary. We use the same password to login (just for simplicity). My user name is "Joe Smith" and my assistant's is "Bob Lee Brown." His short name is "blb".
My assistant is moving out of town and I'm hiring someone else. I'd like to set up a new user with that person's name ("Jane Jones"). I'd like the entire "Bob Lee Brown" and "blb" off the computer, and have that replaced by "Jane Jones" and "jj" (for a short name) everywhere, for the new assistant. I want to make sure we're still 100% networked when I get done, and that I can still admin both accounts but my new assistant can't admin my computer. In other words, I'd like a clone of what I have now, only with the names changed everywhere.
So - here's the question (in multi-part format):
Should I create a new Admin account on the assistnat's computer, log in as that one and delete the existing one, saving the user prefernces from the deleted user?
In this event, could i take the deleted user file that's saved and import back in all the user preferences - particularly for Word and Entourage?
If this is the right way to go, what would I have to do on my computer to complete the network process? Any keychain issues I'd have to deal with (what and how?)?
Or, should I use ChangeShortName v1.2 (which I've read about in other posts)? Is that safe?
Or should I just tell my new assistant that she's stuck with a he's name and leave well enough alone?
Thanks - been on Macs since 1984, but never had to do this one before and I'm a little concerned I might mess something up without some step-by-step instructions!

I have used ChangeShortName once and it worked fine; a real timesaver. However, I would backup the /Users folder (or the whole drive) and repair permissions first to be on the safe side.

How can I change the "short name" of my account?

I want to change the short name of my account because when my dad bought this computer for me he set up the account with his name as the short name and it has been bothering me ever since.
When I go to system preferences and then accounts my account is listed and when I click on it under password I am able to change my name, but not my short name because it is greyed out and cannot be clicked. Is there any way to change the short name on my account? I can't even delete my account and make a new one because the account delete button is greyed out when I click on my account.
Also, I went to my home folder and changed that from my dad's name to my name. This has reset every program on my computer to default settings! For example when I open my Safari browser a message pops up saying a keychain cannot be found to store Safari and asks me if I want to restore default settings.
So pretty much I've tried to change the short name on my administrative account, I reset everything to default settings and my short name is still my father's name. Can anyone help me out here?

Try this.
Or you could just create a new account and delete the old one.

I would like to change my Short Name. But no edit menu in the directory to choose root.

Like the title says, pretty self explanatory. I bought this MacBook from a friend of mine and her name is still on the Home Icon (short name). I get the idea of how to change it but once I get to the Directory Utility to enable the Root User, I find that there is NO edit menu. So now I'm somewhat at an impasse on how to do this so I've decided to come here for some help. Sorry if this has been asked a million times, I've gone through some other topics somewhat similar and nothing remotely came close to this issue. I find it odd that I don't have an Edit Menu in the DU. If there is a different way to this then please let me know, if not then please walk me through this. Thanks!

NW 7.01 upgrade to 7.3 (BW) - Error: Unknown language short name Z2

Hello,
While upgrading a BW system to NW 7.3, in phase PREP_CONFIGURATION/LANG_SELECT I get the error:
Unknown language short name 'Z2'
and the upgrade cannot continue. The Z2 language is supplemented with English and is working properly in the system.
It is only used so that some BI reports to be presented in that language. It is not a correspodence language. Simulation in transaction i18n reports no errors.
Since no objects are translated in this language, I also thought to remove the language during the upgrade and import it after.
However, even this approach was not possible, since I do not get any screen in the upgrade GUI in order to be able to remove Z2 language. Also searched for Notes and in SDN, but no one seems to have faced such an issue.
The system is a standalone development NW 7.01 SPS 8 in Windows 2008 R2 SP1 with SQL 2008 R2 SP1.
Any help or ideas appreciated.
Thank you,
George.

Hi Sunny,
I do not have any translations to save. Nevertheless, I exported the language before starting the upgrade with SMLT_EX.
I get the error and the upgrade stops. I do not get any screen to remove the language.
Regards,
George.

How to get the XML file if we are using the Product short name.

Hi,
Till now I have used Short name of the Concurrent Program for Code while creating a Data Definition. Now saw a seeded template which has given the Code by Product short name. If we have the concurrent program then it is easy to refer the fields by checking the XML file. In this case how to find the XML file or how to refer all the fields if we have given code with Product short name. I saw this for iReceivables(ARI). Anybody please help me.
Thanks.

Hi Siva
Just to clarify, rather than the short name of the conc program there is a shipped data definition that just uses the product short name? What is the data def so I can check it.
Regards, Tim

Best Practice: changing a user's short name?

I administer the OS X Servers and user accounts at my school, where typically a few teachers will come back from the summer having gotten married and changed their names.
We use a standard for usernames of first letter of first name and last name, where Ann Smith is 'asmith' - when she goes and gets married and wants to be 'ajones' at the beginning of this year, what is the best way to go about this change?
Users have network homes, and IMAP email is on a separate server. Here is what I was thinking:
For the user's files, make a new user with their new username, 'ditto' the contents of the old username's home folder to the new username, and chown/chmod the new folder's contents to match the correct permissions.
For the user's mail, use SirAdmin to add ACL's to the old username's mail folders to be able to read them as the new username, have the new username set up their mail and copy the contents of the old username's mail to their new IMAP folder(s).
Does this make sense or is this far too complicated?
Do I just tell these users to log in using their old name and burn their essentials to a DVD and just worry about helping them with their emails?
Any and all suggestions would be appreciated -- thanks

Hi Blair
These look like good methods to me and should work. You could consider creating a second short name - something suitable like their first name instead? Enable Mobile Account (PHD) for the affected users and log in using that short name. Their account should now be created locally as well.
If you have only a handful you could use a spare machine to do it with yourself? More on this later.
If you these users have IMAP accounts you could enable POP for them as well. As you/they log in to download from the server their current home folder their mail should be downloaded also.
What you have after that is effectively a back up of their home folders and mail kept locally on a client machine or a designated machine you decided to use. Delete their account, create the new long and short names, create the additional short name (exactly as it was before), log in with those details and upload the locally stored information back to the server. There should be no need to worry about permissions etc.
What you could do is send an email to the affected users outlining the steps they need to take to achieve what you want. Minimal effort with maximum gain.
When you are happy kill the mobile account option as well as deleting the additional short name. Send another mail advising they use the first short name for logging in. There'll be a little tidying up to do in deleting the locally created home folders but you can do this at your leisure using VNC.
I would have in place one of the other methods as well - just in case.

Yosemite install has messed up my home folder after fixing user short name.

I just installed Yosemite 10.10.2 onto a new Mac Pro, replacing 10.9.5. After the installation completed, I allow my iCloud settings the set things up for Mail and my other general account settings. The only issue is that when I changed my short name from timjones to tjones, auto correct changed it to tones (as it has done in this post 2 times). Once I recognized this, I used the normal method for modifying a user account by logging in under another admin account, using ditto to copy the '/Users/tones' folder to '/Users/tjones', selecting the Tim Jones account in Users and Groups and using the Advanced Options to reset the short name to tjones. I then reassigned the home folder to /Users/tjones.
All seemed to go well and when I logged back in as tjones. However, I could no longer set up my preferences for apps nor could I access my mail. I then clicked on the 'tjones' home folder in Finder and was greeted with a dialog that said 'Preparing to duplicate items to "Users"'. It then spun for around 2 minutes and prompted me for my password. I entered it and the dialog changed to 'Duplicating 0 items to "Users"' and it's now been spinning for around 15 minutes.
What is this and am I back at square one and reinstalling (I have good backups...)?

The "Duplication" finished finally and my home folder has now disappeared from the /Users folder in Finder. If I check in a Terminal, there are now 2 folders - 'tjones' which is set to tjones:wheel and 'tjones copy' which is set to tjones:admin. As mentioned, neither is visible in Finder.

Changing the short name at migration?

Rather than upgrading from Tiger to Leopard, I backed everything up on an external drive in order to do a clean install. When I to migrate I want to change the short name, or somehow bring what was under a previous account into a new one with a different name. Is this possible? Is it a matter of dragging and dropping folder rather than migration? (or would that mean not migrating applications?)
I can provide more details if needed.

No, you cannot change an account name via Migration Assistant. If you want to change the short name do so after migrating. Instructions are here:
How to change user short name or home directory name
Or, download the freeware utility ChangeShortName - VersionTracker or MacUpdate - and use it to change the shortname.
I suggest the latter.
If you create a new user account with the name you prefer and want to get your old account information into the new account then see this article:
How to recover a home folder (directory) .
