Hyperlinks to bookmarks not working

When I create a hyperlink to a bookmark it works fine when I create it: as soon as the bookmark is chosen from the drop-down menu the link takes me to it. However when I subsequently click the hyperlink (with the 'make all hyperlinks inactive' box unchecked) nothing happens. Hyperlinks to webpages work fine. I'm using iBooks Author version 2.1.3 and Mavericks version 10.9.5. I've scoured the net but no-one else seems to be having this problem so I guess I must be making some elementary blunder. Any help would be much appreciated.

I'm not sure how some of the links in one of my notes were created. 
My thinkng is that there are many applications that can make the determination that something that starts with http:// or https:// can be made to behave as a hyperlink
I do know that I did not purposely create a hyperlink and then paste it into my note.
Also, the only time that I receive the Open URL option in the services is when I select text.  E.G  if i have text in my Note like  jguitar.com  and I select the text and then choose Notes > Services, the Open URL option appears and the link will open.  If I select the word jguitar all by itself/alone, the option doesn't appear, so the application can tell if it is a possible choice for opening a URL.
Something isn't quite adding up......

  • Bookmarks not working in multi-document PDF application

    Why are bookmarks not working in multi-document PDF application when uploaded to the web? We created a multi-document PDF application. All bookmarks and links work on our systems. All work on the customer's system. They do not work when uploaded to the customers website. Their IT department says its an issue of relative vs. absolute addressing. We've created applications like this for years without running into this issue. Can't find anything about it in Acrobat Help. Can anyone help or lead me to help? Thx much, Sandy

    Have you tried opening the file in your browser to see if the bookmarks are working?  To open the file in your browser you need to do this:
    1) Launch your favorite browser;
    2) File >> Open >> Select your pdf file
    See this picture to see what I am talking about.  You might need to click on it to magnify it:
    Good luck.

  • I have set hyperlinks within my ibook author document, they work perfectly until i export and view on the ipad, when only one or none work, (hyperlinks to website not working at all) what am i doing wrong?

    I have set hyperlinks within my ibook author document, they work perfectly until i export and view on the ipad, when only one or none work, (hyperlinks to website not working at all) what am i doing wrong?

    An external hyperlink should handoff to Safari and leave iBooks.
    If that's not happening, perhaps there is something misconfigured on your iPad? Have you manually confirmed those links work in Safari on your iPad?

  • Self-Paced Learning - Bookmark not working in Captivate 5

    I followed the directions of adding a Table of Contents to one of my captivate projects and selecting Self-Paced Learning in order to create a bookmark but this does not work.  I have saved it as Adobe Flash 9 and Adobe Flash 10 but I am not getting the message about starting where I left off when either refreshing the browser or exiting and going back in.  What am I missing?
    Thanks for your time,
    Brenda

    All slides in the presentation are marked as continue.  I have gone
    through the first 5 slides and when I refresh the browser or exit out of
    Internet Explorer and open the project again it just starts at the
    beginning.

    Hello Brenda,
    How did you check: after uploading to a LMS?
    You have to be aware of the fact that a slide will be marked as 'viewed'
    only when the playbar has played the whole slide till the end. If you do
    pause slides with a click box, button, TEB and attach the action 'Go to
    Next slide' or something similar instead of the default action 'Continue'
    this will not happen and the slide will not be marked as completed.

  • Hyperlinks in Excel not working when doing the PDF Convert

    I have worked on this and worked on this. Now I am at a point where I need assistance as I am stumped.  I have about 20 different facilities that have financial statements that need to be published in Adobe as a PDF format and when I go through the steps to convert everything looks good, except the links are not working. We have about 62-74 pages that will be exported and due to the departments and such we need the links to work.
    This is through Excel-
    I  select the worksheets I want to convert then after it is done I open the PDF and the links are not working. To set them up manually in Adobe is too labor intensive -- any ideas on how to get this to work?
    Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide me.

    I am on the X version.
    I am using the PDFMaker
    Using either 2003 or 2010 Excel version
    Click on making bookmarks and links
    I can send an attachment, please beware that is it financial information that cannot be published-also the hyperlinks are setup in Excel as well.
    Not sure how to upload the worksheet and would prefer to send via email if at all possible.
    ANY HELP is GREATLY Appreciated :-)
    Thank you and have a great day!

  • Hyperlink text will not work with _self, only as self and then creates window

    I understand that the code below should work but it doesn't, I have to take the underline before self out, for the hyperlink to work at all, and then it creates another window for the file. There may some sort of glitch that I am not aware of. But the code below does not work as is in my app. Any further suggestions?
    var t:TextField = new TextField();
    t.htmlText = "hello world"+ "<a href='weeTestPage.html' target='_self'><u>click here</u></a>";
    t.autoSize=TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;

  • Hyperlink to webpage not working??

    I am attempting to make a hyperlink (to a webpage) of an object on a slide (a circle). After clicking on the object, opening the Inspector, checking "Enable as a Hyperlink" and then beginning to type the URL in the proper place, the Inspector box immediately becomes inactive and the typing appears in the object, rather than in the Inspector. Perhaps I have overlooked a setting or a command, but I cannot make it work. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. (Keynote '09 v.5.0.5)

  • Hyperlinks in presentation not working once published - Presenter 7.0.7

    I have a link to an intranet address that will not work once the PowerPoint presentation has been published via Presenter 7.0.7.  The cursor does not change to a pointer and nothing launches when the link is clicked.  I have verified the Flash Player security settings as well as ensured no formatting of the text link except for the color change that happens when the link is inserted.
    The issue (slide 37) can be viewed at:  http://www.pivotpointelearning.com/docs/TTE7161/index.htm
    Any ideas?
    Ray

    Hi Ray,
    Thanks for sharing the presentation.
    Textbox in which your hyperlink is placed have text containing Text effects. When you publish the presentation then any text with text effect is published as an image.
    So, place text with a hyperlink in a separate textbox which don't have any text effects. Segregate the content having text effect and hyperlink in 2 separate textbox.
    Thanks,
    Shubhi

  • Hyperlinks in .chm not working

    I am authoring my content in Frame 7.2, and importing the Frame chapter files one at a time into RH7. The Frame files have numerous cross-references - some to headings in the same chapter, some to headings in other chapters. When I import the chapters into RH7, the cross-references within that chapter convert to hyperlinks in RH7 and work fine in the .chm file. However the cross-references to other chapters do not - they are formatted as hyperlinks in RH7 and in the .chm, but they do nothing when clicked.
    I have tried importing with all Frame files open, or with only the book file open - no difference.
    Any one have suggestions?  Thanks!
    RIch

    Hi TTS_Eric and welcome to the RH community.
    Inter CHM links are performed by using the Insert > Hyperlink menu item or toolbar icon. When the dialog is displayed, click the down arrow to the left of the "Link to" field and select Remote Topic. From there, navigate to the CHM file that contains the topic and from there the list of topic is displayed from where you can select the topic.
    If this is what you have done, there are other possibilities that could be causing the problem. The first is that your CHM files are not on a local drive or are not in the same directory. Check this first and let us know how you get on.

  • IBooks bookmarks not working after 1.2 upgrade

    I have noticed the bookmarks on my iPad iBooks are not working after upgrading to 1.2 today.
    I am unable to bookmark pages when I need to. It only works sporadically.
    I have also noticed when closing a book and reopening, the book opens at last bookmarked page instead of last page read.
    Please advice about any fix.

    Same problem here, Bookmark always worked properly before iOS 5. I too noticed this while reading Steve's biography, ironic??
    I have noticed that besides it appearing on previous page, that if I turn to lanscape and chose the bookmark it is appearing on the right of the second page of the two that appears as should be. So I wonder if this is some problem of formating between landscape 2 page view and the single page portrait view?
    My two cents but this is sure annoying!  I have not seen it jump back like some noticed however, just previous page in portrait view!

  • Hyperlink to homepage not working

    Greetings Folks, How r you doing,
    Ive made a grand sight sight there using the Muse, shes got all the bells and whistles and she really is a sight for sore eyes, but Ive gone and snagged myself on a problem and this problem is driving me up the walls here, basically the hyperlink on just one page will not work, here is a link to site: www.niallobyrne.com   
    I made the text NIALL O BYRNE in the top left corner a rollover link that would bring viewers back to homepage. You know, its good to have something to bring them back like.  It works grand on preview mode and it works great on preview site in browser however when i published the site through my server today and put it online this link wont work. Absolutely driving me wild, ive been through everything over n over and its getting late in the day and  I should be out enjoying a few pints in Dublins fair city. Im getting cabin fever in the office and its probably the hottest day we've ever seen here so any help asap is much appreciated.
    when i was doing the nav/menu I did delete the [home] button from the list that muse automatically builds for you. So I am hazarding a guess that this may have something to do with it. ??? or am I looking for the prob in the wrong field. Jaysus though if anyone knows will you let us know before I spontaneously combust under by own frustration. My lips are hanging off me here for a sip of the pure drop so give us an auld dig out,  "The Man" says I cant leave until I have it fixed and I might aswell be asking the office furniture than any of the clowns left in this place. And its rapidly approaching 5 oclock !!
    Any suggestions, much appreciated
    Kurt in Dublin

    How are you Sanjit,
    Many thanks for having a look at the problem,
    If you go to site then go to the "work" category and try click on the NIALL O BYRNE link back to home page it just isnt working. Ive now noticed that I cannot get it to work in The Muse preview either, maybe something is wrong with site structure or related to my previous idea surrounding the menu/nav.
    Any suggestions would be great

  • Javascript-based multi-parameter bookmarks not working in firefox 13

    I have a [http://lifehacker.com/240552/firefox-tip--how-to-set-up-multi+parameter-keyword-searches javascript-based multiparameter bookmark]. Think of it like this: use a keyword to call in the search, then put in two parameters (say, zip code and type of forecast) and it goes straight to the page (my zip code, 7-day. or parents' zip code, hourly) in one shot.
    It's sometimes stopped working recently, and I think it's been since I upgraded to FF13. By 'not working' i mean I can restore the bookmark;s "location" to what used to work, and then the shortcut works just fine until .... I don't know. Usually closing firefox and reopening it again and then trying to use the bookmark will cause the browser to just sit there with the entire javascript string in the subject bar.

    From my observations, it seems that it doesn't work on newly opened tabs, tabs where you didn't visited a single site. After I visited one random site on that tab, and entered the search keyword and parameters, it worked. It also works on the initial start page, because it's about:blank I guess.
