Hyperlinks to local files no longer work

Hyperlinks to local files no longer work in Adobe Reader 11.0.1, but they did prior to the update. We have verified this on multiple machines.
We create a document in Word, add multiple relative links to other files on our local computer, and save as a PDF. The links worked in previous versions, but no longer work in 11.0.1. Does anyone else have this problem?
Links to external websites still work, it's only the links to other local files. We also tried opening the same file in Foxit Reader, and the links worked just fine. Only appears to happen in Adobe Reader 11.0.1.
This is a real pain in the ___!

Hi efrancen,
What exactly happens when you click on the hyperlink. Does it give a message that target was not foud. Can you share the PDF or this taget hyperlink.

How do we create Hyperlink to local file on c:\ in Web Intelligence

How de we create Hyperlink to local file on c:\ in Web Intelligence.
Thanks in advance,
K.

K,
You can't hyperlink to a local file when you are in WebI. The ability to hyperlink requires the http protocol to be employed, wrapped within a web service (like IIS, for instance). So to hyperlink to any file, that file must be a part of a web service, and the web service must have access to the folder (again, like in IIS you must create web shares and IIS must "mount" those shares in an http environment). Hopefully I'm making sense to you on why it can't be done.
On the other hand, content that is static and has been made available for browsing on the web can also be linked to by populating a cell in a WebI report, marking that cell as "read cell contents as hyperlink", etc, etc.
Thanks,
John

How can i make hyperlink to local file for dowloading

How can I make hyperlink to a local file for downloading it, it seams that only www links work in web Ui.
Thanks

If we assume that you have a LabVIEW application running on your cRIO that is exposing some data through web services, there are a couple of possibilities.
You can create a web service call that returns the log data. In order for the browser to treat this as a file, you must set the correct content type in the http header. To do this you can't use the default form of data output. Instead you must create an "httpRequestID" input to your web service VI. With this you can call "Write Response.vi" to give the log data and "Set HTTP Header.vi" to specify the type (text/text probably works for a log). You can look at "examples\comm\webservices\address book\FindContacts.vi" to see an example of calling these 2 VIs. Once you create that web service entry point, you can set that as the URL of the hyperlink control and it should work.
Another option is to have the cRIO application write to a log file that is under the root of the web server running on the machine. (This is the same place the xap for your Web UI Builder application is put.) This file could then be served up through the web server just like any other file.
With either of these solutions there may be concerns about the browser caching results rather than requesting new content each time. There are additional values that can be set in the http headers with the first solution that can help with this, but I think there is still some variation between browsers.

Remote Desktop "Bypass RD gateway server for local addresses" no longer working in Windows 8

Hi,
After installing windows 8, it seems like the "Bypass RD gateway server for local addresses" is no longer working.
In Windows 7, when the option is checked, I could have the server name set always and the client will automatically detect whether to use the RD gateway or not. For example, from my house, if I am connecting to a computer at my work, which requires
the RD gateway, it will automatically pops up the dialog for authentication method. However, if I connect to a computer in my home network, it will just automatically connects without asking authentication for the RD gateway.
However, after installing windows 8, this does not seem to work as expected anymore. The option is checked but the Windows Security dialog pops up in both situations and so i have to either save the rdp file locally and pin it to the taskbar or switch between
disabling and enabling the RD gateway whenever I need to connect to different machines.
Is this a regression in Windows 8? Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?
Thanks

Another way to resolve this issue for me, beside of configuring RDP to connect directly to server also on unmanaged network, will be to turn the "wifi" subnet in a managed network, as the "wired" subnet is.
The differences between thoses to subnets, dynamically assigned by the same DHCP server, are:
The "wifi" is in a private IP range, the "wired" is in a public IP range
There's an ACL on the "wifi" subnet, not on the "wired"
The next step is to compare frames send/received when on the two networks. Something will likely tell for the network to be managed.
Beside, I'm still searching informations about NLA, which is responsible for setting a nework as managed or not.
Here are some clues:

Is there a way to make firefox open hyperlinks to local files?

My company has a custom developed ticketing system and of course its developed for IE but none of the engineers like IE. We all use and want to continue using Firefox. One of the sections in the ticketing system has a spot for links to local files on a shared drive. I have created the link and it points to a word document. That hyperlink works fine in IE but it does nothing when clicked in Firefox.
Of course the dev team is giving me the age old line ".NET doesn't play nice with Firefox... developed for IE.... blah blah use IE."
Surely creating a link to a local file like excel or word or even a directory is simple idea and should be accomplished somehow with FireFox right? Can anyone shed some light on this and give a suggestion how to make this work?
For example:
N:\KNOWLEDGE BASE\Cisco Price List\2012\pricelistaugust2012.xlsx
i am trying to share with a hyperlink like:
<a href=file://companyname.local\Shares\Services\KNOWLEDGE BASE\Cisco Price List\2012\pricelistaugust2012.xlsx
Looking for any suggestions on how to make this work. Thank you so much!!

I think there are two aspects to this:
(1) URL format
If you navigate to that file using the browser's Open File dialog (Ctrl+O), you can get the workable link format for it. For example, the separators will be forward slashes instead of backslashes.
(2) Local file security
Firefox limits access from pages on web servers to pages on local disk or UNC paths. This article has more info: [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Links_to_local_pages_do_not_work Links to local pages do not work - MozillaZine Knowledge Base]. This extension provides a workaround: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/locallink/ LocalLink] (I haven't tried it myself).

Hyperlink to local file

This is very simple, and incredibly frustrating :-) I want to call a local file from a hyperlink (say c:\test.txt) but putting this in a hyperlink url does absolutely nothing, the link is completely dead.
On a colleagues machine his link url gets a ";jsessionid=...." string appended to his which doesn't happen on mine either but neither machine can call a local file of any sort. Surely this is a bug of some sort? Or am I blind to some obvious reason it can't be done?

Hi AidanM,
I have exactly the same problem like you and I tried this (using creator):
I inserted following JS code into the ui:head tag of the jsp:
<ui:head binding="#{Page1.head1}" id="head1">
<script type="text/javascript">
function openHelpHTML() {
window.location.href("C:/tmp/test.html");
</script>
then I set the target property of the hyperlink to "new window" (customer's requirement) and the onClick property to openHelpHTML(). When I click the hyperlink, the JSP ist reloaded and in the background a second browser window is opening and displaying the HTML-page.
My second problem now is that I cannot write something like that:
<ui:head binding="#{Page1.head1}" id="head1">
<script type="text/javascript">
function openHelpHTML() {
window.location.href("#{ApplicationBean1.helpPath}");
</script>
I wanted to write the path into the web.xml as parameter, so that I can change it later (if needed). but it does not work.
I�m not sure if this "solution" suits my (customer`s) needs but maybe it�s ok for you?
cheers
I�ve just found out that window.location.href (C:/tmp/test.html) does not work in IE because it`s a local html-file and I got an error:
"Access denied".
It worked in my test-project because I had set the path to H:\tmp\help.html and H: is a network drive.
So I decided to change the path to the path of the webserver (in my case Tomcat 6.0):
window.location.href("http://localhost:8080/help/test.html");
where "help" is a folder in webapps folder of Tomcat.

IPhone doesn't appear as device and sync of local files has stopped working

Oh my god!! why is it so complicated to do something that simple. Add a feature that lets us add our own mp3 directly in spotify with spotify managing them as itunes would (saving in right directory with renaming etc. Make people use your app instead of itunes) And automatically sync the content with devices. It's just too complicated now.. go to prefs add a custom source folder, put all the songs there.. go back to main screen and try to find the iphone (that never appears, I don't even know how to look for it). I never succeeded in adding my mp3. Now I can't see my device anywhere either. I added the song on the desktop app, but with some pain (first tried with itunes source but that doesn't refresh automatically and even if I restarted the app nothing appeared) so I chose the 'folder' source (quick and dirty way to add songs). I added the song to a playlist and tried to sync with my phone (on the same wifi yes).. no nothing happens, the song is there (on the phone) but greyed out (when I click on it it says content not synced, connect the phone on the same wifi bla bla bla) I don't know why it's so complicated.. From the beginning of spotify it never has been userfriendly, even when the phone appeared in device I always had problems and gave up. Hurry up guys! Apple released there own fully integrated streaming service so if we can't play our songs in the same app we will use the one that let us do that. Hopefuly some day we won't have to do this anymore if the streaming services get common and used by everybody, it will put some pressure on artists and they will see that this is the future. Sorry if I may appear rude.. It's getting late and I'm tired.Keep going guys you're doing a great job. But please fix this asap. I'm starting to have a lot of songs that are not on spotify :( And no I don't want to reinstall the iphone app. I don't want to loose my preferences and have to sync my 10gb songs all over again. (Yes I only use spotify localy, I don't have an 'unlimited' data package). Bye :) and as Bon Jovi would say.. ♫♫♫ Have a nice day! ♫♫♫

Until just recently, connection between iPhone app and Windows (7) app has worked fine. I've been able to sync local files to my mobile device. Since two-three weeks ago it hasn't worked. Some Windows updates have been installed and Spotify app has been upgraded. I know I'm on same WiFi and that the iPhone has memory space for the sync, and I'm doing the exact same procedure as always before. I've also tried on both my jobs WiFi and at home. Any ideas?

AAC files no longer work

I have 865 AAC files which no longer work.
These are in iTunes but no longer play. Can't really say when they quit but noticed it tonight and went thru them all.
If I view them in the Finder, they don't play with Quicklook or by preview in the Finder window.
No other application will play them (VLC, QuickTime).
In the Finder, it shows them as an MPEG-4 Audio File. The extension is .m4a, which is an AAC.
Icon is correct.
In iTunes, when I get info, everything is on the left side of the Summary tab but right side is blank. It should have the Profile, channels and Encoded with: (iTunes and QT version).
Looking at file properties in VLC, everthing except the name is blank (arist, genre, etc.).
Bit rates are different (128, 160, 192, 256 VBR).
Dates added and modified are from 2005 to a few weeks ago.
Single songs to whole albums.
Some iTunes DRM, some iTunes plus and some imported from CDs.
I'm running 10.5.7 on the internal drive and my iTunes folder is on another drive on a 10.4.11 partiton.
I have copies of these files on another drive and comparing them in the Finder, they have the same creation and mod dates. They are the same number of bytes.
The only difference is one works and one doesn't.
Ran Disk First Aid and Permissions repair on both drives.

Not in figuring out what happened.
I copied the files from a backup drive to the original drive replacing the files and everything works fine.
Okay now, here's something really whack.
I had dumped all the files into the trash but have not empied it yet.
I installed 10.5.8 yesterday and it works great.
However, now looking at the song files in the trash, they all play correctly with Quick Look (spacebar).

I see a 40 second delay each time I click in the Local Files pane after working in the Edit pane.

I'm running Dreamweaver CS4. I have a PHP file that's about 12,000 lines and each time I want to upload changes to the server, I stop editing in the Edit pane and click in the Local Files pane, at right, so I can select the file I've been working on the then do a synchronize. But it takes about 40 seconds, while a spinner goes around, before focus is transferred to the Local Files pane and I can select my file and synchronize. It's as if Dreamweaver wants to do spell check or some kind of format check on all 12,000 lines before it lets me go to the Local Files pane.
If I do a CTRL-SHIFT + U to upload I still see the same 40 second delay before the upload starts.
Does anyone know what might be causing this?
Thanks

Just for interest sake, what is the size of the file that has 12,000 lines of code? Have you tried asking in some php forums or newsgroup if this file can be stream-lined to make it smaller and/or efficient?
I don't know why DW goes to sleep for 40 seconds but you might want to clear the DW preference file to see if that makes any difference. D W Powers wrote a tutorial on how to do this but I can't find his page. Alternatively, you can try this link:

Good luck.

Old .idx files no longer working

Old .idx files (index files) that worked with Reader 9 no longer work with Reader XI. Because of this, I have not upgraded beyond Reader 9, but I love the new XI. Is there any way of converting the old .idx file so that they will work in XI? (is there a simple upgrade tool?)

Latest iPhoto, v.9.5. New Library: same result. But all files that iPhoto balks at ('sees' them, but warning exclamation point and not opened) open happily in Preview.
(A thought: maybe I should try Loom. But iPhoto really should be able to handle these files if Preview can.)

Cr2 files no longer work

All of my cr2 files no longer open in camera raw. This is roughly 1000 files.
The setup used to take these 1000 cr2 files was a Canon T3i in conjunction with Capture One and a tethered USB cable.
Suddenly today not a single file can be opened in ACR. I usually just drop the .cr2 file on CS6 in dock and it opens camera raw. I now get the message "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file.". If I instead go open cs6 > file > open > enable: camera raw > open.. it says the same thing.
I haven't change anything in my setup. Same camera, same tethered cable, same Capture One...
Even if I did change something, it shouldn't affect the cr2 files I generated 6 months ago?

When I go Help > About Plug-ins > Camera Raw I do not see "About Plug-Ins".

.avi files no longer work in quicktime

hi. I recently reinstalled Mac OS X 10.4.11 and now .avi files don't work work in quicktime player. The timer along the bottom still counts what looks to be the right time, but there is no sound or picture, except with other file types, it seems (or at least with .mpg 's it's OK, they're the only file types I've tried) I've got VLC player, so it's obviously not a massive inconvenience, but it's irking me and I wondered if anyone could help me out.

You probably need to download and install Perian from http://perian.org/

AE Files no longer working in Premiere

I do a weekly video for my church, motion graphics were created and I've been using the same files for a year, I do to drop the ae files in premiere exactly the same process every week no changes and the files just show a series of colored bars

After Effects, Premiere Pro, in fact any NLE does not save the source files with the project, only links to the files are stored. No editing or compositing program I have ever used in more than 20 years cutting films on a computer or in 40 years in film and television has ever done that. You have to gather the files and keep them organized. There is no failure on Adobe's part here, only failure to understand and apply proper workflow technique.
I'm working on a film that has more than 7 terabytes of footage can you imagine how long it would take for Premiere Pro to save the project file if it had to re-write 7 terabytes to the hard drive every time you did a save? You'll have to ask the original artist to reload the files then relink them in your AE project. It will just take a moment and if the folder names and locations are the same it will be automatic. Then I suggest that you use After Effects collect files feature to make a local copy you can keep safe.
