Hyperlink to a webpage in a media widget caption

Is there a way to make a link to an external website in caption text?
I inserted a media widget and a video clip. Below the clip is the text caption of the talking head speaker's name and a line of text describing what he is saying. I'm trying to create an external web link to IMDB when one clicks the name of the speaker. Can't seem to be able to do that!
Any ideas or am I doing something wrong here?

If you input the text in any part of iBA - within the body text  or a captions - you can select whatever word or words you chose, and using the make a link  option in the Inspector - select the  webpage option and type in the FULL URL i.e. http://www. xxxxxxxxx.com or net etc,.
the selected text will  be underlined and colour changed to  whatever your style is - default - for  reasons known only to Apple  is red as  opposed to the internationally used blue.
If you want it changed - disable  - make inactive - the link text you selected - open the Styles drawer and  look for  "hyperlink" in red.... now change your text colour to blue ( or choice) disable the underline if you want - when done click the down arrow to the right of hyperlink in the styles drawer and  choose
"redefine style from selection"      your  text - and every  other link in the  book will now be as you styled it.

  • Why can't I see the social media widgets in Firefox?

    I have noticed that the social media widgets "follow" on both FB and Twitter seem to show up fine in Chrome but fail to appear in Firefox. What can I do to rectify this?

    This can be due to browser plugin issue. Please try to check browser settings and then view again.
    If same issue, then provide us the page url.

  • Ibook Author audio (AAC) media widget rejected in validation??

    We have a complex image, video and music book from the Arctic created on ibooks author.  Everything seems to validate through itunes producer on delivery except for this error message.
    ERROR ITMS-9000: "Files of type audio/x-m4a are not allowed outside of widgets: assets/media/Arctic_master_music.m4p" at Book (MZItmspBookPackage)
    We've done everything in widget sizing, placement, audio encoding to aac from QT, itunes and compressor.  We can't get past there error?  Is there a bug in the ibook author or am I missing someting.
    Any ideas.  The videos work fine, just the audio clip/
    richard

    John, as you can see by my previous response we haven't solved the audio error ITMS-9000, audio outside of widget. But we haven't forced the issue as of late.
    We had so much video with audio, that we pulled the page with the music pieces.  Our idea was to see if the book without the error on the audio would pass and it did.  We had to make some other corrections and link fixes, but the video and images all passed.  I was impressed that someone was actually going through page by page.
    So once the book is up, we're going to start with the music (audio only) from scratch, strictly following  the process that apple outlines.  We will resubmit it and if it won't pass the error, then I have only one specific issue for myself and apple to deal with.  I have a feeling it's something I'm doing in the music conversion, but we've compressed it from QT, from iTiunes and from compressor following their guidelines all with the same error of this audio placed within their media widget.  Now maybe with their recent ibook author updates things have been fixed.  See I have this little feeling it's a bug in ibook author compiler. But over many years where I jumped out and blamed someone and been wrong, I have to be sure it's me and not them.
    So if anyone has had success in audio only book elements placed in ibook author media widget and successfully got it published, tell us your secret.  Please. Or if others are having the same issue, then we need together to find an answer quickly.
    Once I find the answer on this issue I'll be sure to post the steps to our success.

  • Media Widget missing Start/Stop Sliders

    I have seen video tutorials on inserting Media widgets in iBooks Author that show the Start/Stop Slider for controlling start and stop frames in the Widget Inspector. However, these sliders DO NOT show up in the Widget Inspector in my iBook when selecting one of the videos I have inserted. Poster Frame, Repeat and Playback controls are all visible in the Media widget as they should be. I am using Author version 1.1 (190). Any help out there?

    Not the scrubbing slider, the Start Frame and Stop Frame slder in the Inspector just above the Poster Frame slider (where you select the frame you want as the display frame). The tutorial I saw (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzk9pyBnhTU) shows this addition slider in the Inspector box. Either it used to be there and isn't any longer or my version of iBook Author is not current (which I doubt but here is the info from my original query: version 1.1 (190)

  • Mediahub - Playing songs of the media hub on the internal webpage of cisco media hub

    Hi there, has anyone the same problem? I cannot play songs throught the internal webpage of cisco media hub. Error message: invalid player data received - for audio player support visit linksys.com, best Regards A.

    Hi ,
    Mine works well.
    However, here are my two cents:
    Check if the NMH has the latest firmware version (3.18.15)? Click here on how to update.
    Make sure the files are supported by the media browser. Here's your reference.
    Make sure you have the latest adobe flash player plug-in.
    Disable security software temporarily to further isolate the issue.
    Try to use another browser.

  • Media widget bug?

    I'm writing a language book and audio is very important to me.  When I insert an audio clip and then preview it on my iPad, the transition back and forth from portrait to landscape causes a crash.  I removed it and it stopped crashing.  Can someone else test and tell me if it's the same for them?  Thanks.
    Add an audio file in the media widget and preview.  Keep changing the orientation, usually 1 or 2 times is enough.

    Update:  Played a little more and it seems to be a combination of a table inside a text box (if you want to make sure it's right, it will only show in portrait mode if it's in the text box) plus a media widget.  I can get it to crash with a video or audio clip now on a default template.
    Can anyone else verify this?

  • URL hyperlinks won't work from Address Book widget.

    Whenever I click on a web address in my Address Book widget, Dashboard disappears but nothing opens in my browser. When I click on an email address, it works just fine. It's just the web URLs that don't work. Is anyone else experiencing this? Any suggestions re: how to get this working?

    Well, I just figured out that URLs that begin with "http://" actually work. Unfortunately, I have a few thousand contacts without that in the URL. Anyone know of a script or anything that will go through Address Book and add it to the URLs?

  • Using Media Widgets in iBooks Author

    I'm writing an eBook in iBooks Author (which is a great Mac App!). I am adding audio widgets from time to time, and want to place them in the text next to a specific paragraph. However, I have discovered that if I try to include a second audio widget on the same page as another audio widget, the first one disappears. In other words, it only seems to allow one audio widget per page. But this means I can't alsways place the audio next to the apprpriate para. Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is there a workaround?

    Is comment about enhancing the font to support AAT still relevant? Are you saying that iOS needs those AAT extension that macOS does not need? Is this mostly around MORX table?
    iOS (and OS X) comes with two Gujarati fonts, Gujarati MT and Gujarati Sangam MN.  So the easiest thing to do is to use one of those.   Other platforms will probably have their own default Gujarati fonts with different names.
    If you want to embed a different Gujarati font in your .ibooks format book, then you will indeed have to convert that font from OpenType to AAT before iBooks will display it correctly.   It's not true that OS X no longer needs AAT Indic fonts -- Pages for example still cannot use Opentype Indic fonts.
    To convert an Opentype Indic font to an AAT Indic font I think someone will have to add a morx table along the lines of what is contained in Gujarati MT.
    Bear in mind that iBooks Author creates a format that can only be read on an iPad (unless you want to export to PDF).  If you want to produce books for all platforms and readers, then you need to use .epub format and a different app, like Pages or Indesign.   With epub format you would probably not normally try to embed fonts but just  rely on the reader to supply whatever Gujarati font is already on the device.

  • Linking a WEBI report through hyperlink in a webpage using open document

    Hi All,
    I have a hyper link in a web page which when clicked should open a WEBI report. I created it using the open document feature.
    Once clicking on the link, InfoView login credential page is displayed. After logging in the report runs.
    My client does not want the login page to be displayed since most of the users does not remember their password (since SSO is implemented).
    He wants to bypass this login page so that most of the users can directly view the reports.
    Question:
    Is there a way to achieve this i.e without asking for login credentials or by passing this?
    Possibilities :
    1: To create ID's for all the people (which I think is not a feasible option in my project)
    2: Create a guest account with minimum privileges and share the password with all the users.
    Note:
    1: I use BO XI R 3.1.
    2: No SDK is installed to do any programming.
    Any suggestion are most welcome.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Shreyas,
    Manual Easy Way for doing the activity in SAP Business Objects 4.0:
    This method is useful if we have a special system account that we want everyone to use.
    You will notice that all we do is generate a logon token using the appropriate username, password and CMS variables. Then we append the token onto ivsLogonToken.
    Note: The numbers on the url after /BOE/portal represents the timestamp of the last patch or install.  You can put whatever you want under the number section and Business Objects will automatically redirect to the appropriate start.do
    Step I:
    Go to the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\eclipse\plugins\webpath.InfoView directory and edit custom.jsp
    Step II:
    You can copy the contents from the custom.jsp that I’ve provided below to your custom.jsp.
    Cutom.JSP File
    <%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.exception.SDKException" %>
    <%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.framework.*" %>
    <%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.infostore.*" %>
    <%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.security.*"%>
    <%@ page import="java.net.*"%>
    <%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.enterprise.*"%>
    <%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.plugin.admin.*"%>
    <%@ page import="java.sql.*"%>
    <%@ page import="com.businessobjects.webutil.Encoder" %>
    <%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
        pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
    <%
    //BO Session and redirect to Infoview
    IEnterpriseSession enterpriseSession;
    /* * Set Enterprise Logon credentials. */
    final String BO_CMS_NAME = "bi4server";
    final String BO_AUTH_TYPE = "secEnterprise";
    final String BO_USERNAME = "Daya";
    final String BO_PASSWORD = "admin@123";
    ILogonTokenMgr logonTokenMgr;
    String defaultToken = "";
    * Log onto Enterprise
    boolean loggedIn = true;
    try {
    //Create session token
    enterpriseSession = CrystalEnterprise.getSessionMgr().logon(Daya,admin@123, BI4SERVER,Enterprise);
    logonTokenMgr = enterpriseSession.getLogonTokenMgr();
    defaultToken = logonTokenMgr.createWCAToken("", 20, 1);
    //Redirect with token attached to the ivsLogonToken parameter
    response.sendRedirect("http://"+BO_CMS_NAME+":8080/BOE/portal/1205291547/InfoView/logon/start.do?ivsLogonToken="+Encoder.encodeURL(defaultToken));
    catch (Exception error)
    loggedIn = false;
    out.println(error);

    Edit the username,Password & BOBJ Server Name'in BOLD Letter
    Step III:
    Stop tomcat, then delete contents in the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\work directory.
    Then start tomcat again and the work directory will be regenerated with new code.
    Step IV:
    Trusted Authentication:
    Trusted Authentication is a component of Enterprise authentication that integrates with third-party single sign-on solutions, including Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS). Applications
    that have established trust with the Central Management Server can use Trusted Authentication to allow users to log on without providing their passwords.
    This method is really cool because users don’t even have to know their passwords.  Basically with this method you can log into another system and if that system has the appropriate user name, you can pass it to the custom.jsp and then it will log you into BI Launchpad.
    In addition, you don’t need to create any java code for the enterprise token setup.
    Step V:
    In the CMC, go to Authentication, then select Enterprise.  Check Trusted Authentication is enabled, then click on New Shared Secret.  Finally download the shared secret key and keep it somewhere secure
    Step VI:
    Copy global.properties from <INSTALLDIR>\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\warfiles\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\config\default into <INSTALLDIR>\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\warfiles\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\config\custom.  Then using Notepad or another text editing utility, edit the following properties
    sso.enabled=true
    trusted.auth.user.retrieval=WEB_SESSION
    trusted.auth.user.param=UserName
    trusted.auth.shared.secret=<secret code from properties file you created in step 2>
    Step VII:
    Go to the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\eclipse\plugins\webpath.InfoView directory and edit custom.jsp

    <body>
    <a href="javascript:goToLogonPage()">Click this to go to the logon page of BI launch pad</a>

    Edit the username(Daya) variable
    Step VIII:
    Stop tomcat, then delete contents in the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\work directory.
    Then start tomcat again and the work directory will be regenerated with new code.
    Hope this help you as well.

    Can text hyperlinks be used in slideshow captions? In a series of 6 images with captions I would like 6 different links within the 6 different captions ("Click HERE" sort of thing) but so far, the preview shows the link style but with no rollover reaction and no link.

    Hi hsavageo,
    The effect that you are trying to create is not possible with Basic Slideshow, I would suggest that you try to use the Composition Presentation and let me know if that serves the purpose.
