Index Topic markers have gone invisible.

Hello,
I have a document that refuses to show the Index Topic markers. I have tried exporting the document to INX and back to .indd but that didn't help. Show hidden characters (Alt+Ctrl+I) is enabled but the markers do not show up in the usual layout view or in the story editor. I can see that the entries are really there by looking at Index palette, but this is a PITA because it makes it difficult to tell what text has been marked as a topic and what hasn't.
I also tried deleting all the entries, copying the entire story, pasting it into a new document, and adding new entries. Strangely enough, that didn't work either.
WinXP SP2
Pentium 4 CPU 3.00Ghz
1.5GB RAM
InDesign CS2 version 4.0.5

Looks like I'm going to have to copy all of the text to notepad and back to a new ID doc. I will have to apply the paragraph styles manually, drop in the graphics and everything. Probably the fastest solution at this point.
Thanks for trying anyway.

My hyperlinks have gone awry

Help, my hyperlinks have done their own thing. I want all my hyperlinks to be blue as a:link. I defined my links in my external style sheet to be blue; however, when I visted my page in chrome or on my mobile phone some of my links are blue and the rest are purple. In chrome on the desktop, the "home" link in the navigation is blue and the rest of the links in the navigation are purple lol. This looks terrible to me and I'm sure others? How can I force each link to be blue, can I add a bit of code to the <a href ....> tad at every link to force each one blue? I have attached my source code and my external style sheet below. Please help me get this fixed. I've had this problem in previous designs as well. I know dreamweaver can be buggy but there is usually a way around using the code. Thanks to all who help:

That's a total weight loss of incredible 90 pounds! In addition, Lori's genes were tainted with diabetes and obesity throughout her family lineage. Lory accomplished this feat while rearing her child. In the picture below, Lori stands accomplished on the beach at the fat left.

Since starting this diet in April, I have lost 25 pounds!!! I love this diet…
 
Hi Michael….Since starting this diet in April, I have lost 25 pounds!!! I love this diet…I eat plenty and have found
many delicious recipes to sustain me. I eat an apple a day (along with a wide variety of other fruits) and have found that I actually crave the apple, I went to the fridge yesterday and found no apples in the fruit drawer, so I jumped in my car and headed straight for the local fruit stand to replenish my stock. ( like a smoker does for cigarettes) It’s nice to know the many benefits I am getting with something I’ve come to really enjoy!
 I have 5 pounds to go to accomplish my weight goal….once there, I may set a new one…just for fun!
Warm Regards,
Joyce Borodemos
 
 
I had my 16-year old daughter run through it once school let out. In 2 weeks she dropped 24 pounds...
 
Hi Mike
I just thought you might be interested on an update…
I loved the 2-week phase diet so much that I had my 16-year-old daughter run through it once school let out. In 2 weeks, she dropped 24 pounds (including a significant amount of bloating around her midsection) and is under 200 pounds for the first time in years. She now has a waistline. Even more significantly, when she first started, she complained that the food was tasteless. That disappeared within a couple of days and my junk food-loving teen was able to appreciate the taste of fresh produce again. All the chemicals she was pumping into her body had so significantly altered her taste buds that she couldn’t even taste real food until she’d been able to cleanse her palate for a couple of days. Today was her first day off the meat-free diet and she really wanted a piece of marzipan (her favorite treat) and a bit of naan. Both repelled her when she tried to eat them. She complained that they tasted like chemicals! In fact, she ran to the fridge and piled a bunch of fresh veggies on plate to drown the awful taste of what used to be some of her favorite comfort foods.
Here’s the best part…she’d suffered from debilitating migraines on a DAILY basis. They were so bad that she missed a significant amount of school over the past few years. She has not had a migraine since the second day of the meat-free diet.
 As for me, I’ve noticed significant changes too. I used to have to take 3 pain relief pills to even begin to combat the headaches I’d get from working at my computer. Now, even a half dose (1 Advil) will do the trick if I even need it. But most of all, I appreciate the closer bond this process has forged between me and my daughter. Although we’ve always been extremely close, she resented my being a personal trainer and was loathe to follow any of my professional advice. That was the one area where we could never see eye-to-eye. But between going through this nutritional change and the talking we did on our hour-long daily walks together, she’s found a new interest in living a healthy lifestyle. As a trainer, I am inspired by the benefits of your program. As a parent, I’ll be forever grateful to you because Fat Loss Factor is showing my daughter that she can, indeed, succeed at making positive changes to her body and her health that will last a lifetime!
Now, we’re really eager to start exercising together. (I’m taking your advice and skipping the lemonade detox, and I’m reluctant to have my daughter do it considering her age and health history)
 Thanks again! You’re a true guru in my book!
 

 
I watched your video many times over a period of several months before finally deciding to try your program. Within a week I noticed a tremendous difference...
 
LOL Michael, 
I actually have hypothyroidism and take medicine everyday but do not use it as an excuse for being overweight. I am overweight because I made bad decisions about food and did not exercise properly. 
Since starting your program I feel better and have gone down one size in clothing. Sure, there were a few modifications to ease into these changes. After all I am in my late 50s and have been out of shape for a long time. There has been a little cheating but not much. I am sticking with this and will tighten the reins more and more as time goes by.
By saying that I FEEL better means exactly that. I get better sleep. My joints more freer. I breath easier without so much abdominal pressure pushing up on my diaphram. It never occured to me flushing my system would make me feel so great. This ha such a positive effect on my attitude also.
I recently tried the Flat Belly Diet. It had me eating every 4 hours and a MUFA with each meal. Yes there are 'good' fats but MUFAs are still fats. I was eating twice as much foods as before and about 10 times for fat then before. I gained weight and was demoralized. 
I watched your video many times over a period of several months before finally deciding to try your program. Within a week I noticed a tremendous difference. Flushing out the toxins from my body has made me convinced you have me going in the right direction. 
I am slowly trimming up. My whole attitude has changed. I FEEL better and am not starving myself or obessing over food. my appetite has decreased. It's that simple.
Thank you for helping me change for the better. 
Sincerly, Hazel.

Thanks so much, as above you can see I defined a:link {color: blue;}

In CSS, there are five states for links
a:link
a:visited
a:hover
a:active
a:focus
a:link (=unvisited, or never clicked)
a:visited (=clicked at least once)
a:visited is purple in most browsers by default.
Thus, you need to define a:visited in your CSS and it should come after a:link (otherwise you'll never see it)
One solution would be:
a:link, a:visited {
 color: #00F;
but bear in mind that visitors find it handy if a:visited is a different color to a:link so they know which links they've already clicked on.
a:link {
 color: #00F;
a:visIted {
 color: #SOME OTHER COLOR TO A:LINK;
a:hover {
 color: #F00;

The bookmarks sidebar keeps popping in and out and I can't get it to stop. I have gone to "View" and tried to hide it but no luck. Any suggestions?

The bookmarks sidebar keeps popping in and out. This shifts the screen making it hard to read or write anything. I have gone to "View" but am unable to stop it. The firefox questions don't address this issue.

Did you check if there were extensions installed in that new profile? 
Some programs install extensions globally and appear automatically in a new profile.
Do a clean (re-)install:
* Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs. 
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. 
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

VBA script for automatically indexing topics

A big disadvantage with InDesign's indexing system is that you cannot automatically index all occurences of topics currently in the index.
Instead, you have to find an occurence of each topic in the document itself and go to the Index menus and then click New Page Reference...Add All, for each index topic individually.
To get around this, I have been trying to produce a VBA script to automatically index all occurrences in a document of the topics currently in the document index.
I have been using the MS Excel VBA development environment but find the definitions of the object model in the Excel VBA browser rather inadequate and ambiguous .
Is there a more thorough reference work for these?
The plan was to start by taking each individual topic in the index which I tried to access with something along the lines of:
MyDocument.Index.Topic(1)
This hasn't worked.
The plan then was to take each index topic and use it to find an occurence in the document of that topic and then use that occurence to invoke the New Page Reference...Add All option to index all occcurences of that selected term, using something like:
MyDocument.PageReferences.Add
Again, without success.
Any guidance or suggestions would be appreciated.

Dear Peter,
Many thanks for your posting, that was very helpful.
This is the state of the script so far (I have added a large number of MsgBox entries - these aren't needed, they are just for debugging purposes during development):

There are a couple of problem areas still:
1. Index terms appear to be added irrespective of whether or not that particular page reference already exists in the index.
This can result in duplicate page references under each topic - especially if the script is run several times.
Is there any way of avoiding these duplicate references?
2. I haven't yet suceeded in getting the script to generate the index - so far I've had to do it manually after the script has run.
The problem lies somewhere in the code to set up the index options and then generate the index.
3. It might be useful to be able to limit the indexing to the curent story rather than the whole document - but I haven't yet got it to do that.
Best wishes.

Indexing Topic Titles (anyway to automate this?)

Hello,
Is there any way to automatically index topic titles as
titles, without RH breaking them down into individual
keywords?

Hi there TWKC
Not really. You *COULD* accomplish it by editing the "Phrase
List" file to include all the Topic Titles. But that would be as
much work as simply indexing them individually.
On second thought, have you tried just displaying the Topic
List, selecting all the topics, clicking and dragging into the pane
area where the Index keywords are listed? I'm thinking that should
do it.
How is JWS these days anyway? (I once worked there - Back in
2000/2001)
Cheers... Rick

This issue can be caused by a corrupt local snapshot index. The procedure below will temporarily disable local snapshots and force the index to be rebuilt.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
sudo tmutil disablelocal
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command.
To re-enable:
sudo tmutil enablelocal

Had to restore my ipod most apps have gone back on no probs but three are saying they are not compatible any suggestions please

had to restore my ipod, most apps have gone back on with no probs but three of them saying incompatible can anyone help please

Hi Skydiver119
Thank you so much for taking the time to reply to my problem.
Yes the purchases were made though my apple id.
I have looked at a few other questions on this topic and I have read that the app data is stored in the backup file but the apps themselves need to be synced back onto the ipad. Someome has mentioned right clicking on sync my ipad but I don't know where to find that to right click on!! Lol.
Again, I really appreciate your time and if by any chance you know where I can 'right click' I would really appreciate you letting me know as I can't get my ipad to sync with my pc at all, although it is being picked up in itunes and it has backed up to itunes okay. GGrrr. Maybe I have something wrong in the settings which is not making them compatible?

Typing in the index box doesn't scroll the index topics

This has been a bug for quite a while (v5?). We are using v7 now. We have a large help system. Generating WebHelp with RoboHelp for Word. We are calling context help using the Robohelp_CSH.cpp function RH_ShowHelp(). What we are seeing is that when the user types into the index box (where it says 'Type in the keyword to find'), the list of index topics doesn't scroll to what the user is typing. If we run the help 'standalone' by double clicking on the 'root' .htm file, it works fine. We have users that find this very offensive. One actually got a hold of the president of the company and gave him 'an earfull' about it. Called us incompetent, etc. I downloaded the trial of v9 to see if it had been corrected. But it hasn't. Has anyone seen this? Is there a fix?

Hi there
I bit the bullet, downloaded the app and installed it. I do see what you mean by the index not scrolling automagickally as it would with basic WebHelp being presented in a standard browser. But I note that what is happening is you appear to have WebHelp but being somehow presented using a custom viewer? I think we need more information about exactly how this viewer is working with the content.
What type of help is this? I know you said that you are using RoboHelp for Word, meaning that you are making edits using Microsoft Word and creating output from that. But what happens once you create the WebHelp? I see that you have a gob of content out in the RSU.Help folder. I also note that if I find and double-click the page named: rsu.htm that WebHelp loads and the Index works just fine and scrolls as you would expect.
So I can only conclude that the issue really isn't with what RoboHelp is producing, but more what your developers may be doing with the help once they link it to the application. I guess my analogy would be that you are stuffing a working product into a crate and the process of stuffing it into the crate is causing breakage.
Cheers... Rick

Will there be a fix for Firefox's problems with Hotmail. I have gone back to 3.5.9 but mostly I am disappointed by the lack of action on this serious problem where a major and critical feature of a major international website is unavailable in the Firefox browser.

http://www.hotmail.com

We've reached out to the Hotmail team and they've determined that this is a bug in their code. (It was masked by a timing issue in 3.5 that was fixed in 3.6.) We've worked with them to develop a fix but they may not have deployed it yet.

TS3988 My wife bought an iPad Air and synced contact from our PC (Outlook), now all our contacts in Outlook have gone and we have to go to iCloud to get them, and even then they are a bit jumbled. How do I get my data back onto my PC?

My wife bought an iPad Air and synced contact from our PC (Outlook), now all our contacts in Outlook have gone and we have to go to iCloud to get them, and even then they are a bit jumbled. How do I get my data back onto my PC?

If you can see the iCloud contacts in Outlook, you can copy them back to your PC by selecting all the contacts (click one, then press Control-A), then drag and drop the selected contacts to Contacts under My Contacts on the left sidebar of Outlook.
If you want to copy your calendar back to Outlook, select your iCloud calendar on the left sidebar of Outlook, switch to the list view (select View from the ribbon, then click Change View>List), select your events (click on a single event, then press Control-A), then control drag and drop them to Calendar under My Calendars on the left sidebar.
Then you can sign out of iCloud on the iCloud control panel and your local copies will still be there. If you want to add your iCloud email account back to iCloud, you can do this with these settings: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864.

HT4915 When i did my itunes match, there were some duplicated albums and songs. I have gone into my library and deleted the duplicates, but they still show up on my iphone as duplicates. What can i do to get rid of them?

When I did my itunes match, there were some duplicated albums and songs in my library. I have gone back into my library from my computer, and deleted the duplicates. When I did so, itunes did not ask me if I wanted to delete them from the cloud. They are still showing up on my iphone as duplicates in the cloud. What can I do to get them from showing up in my iphone?

They are not on the iphone in the first place. It is just a setting that allows you to see the songs that are available in icloud, but not on your iphone. If you turn the setting to off, then you no longer see the songs that are in icloud, but NOT on your iphone.

IPhone 5 not being recognized in iTunes (Mac). I have the latest Software update for iTunes, my iPhone, and my Mac. I have gone through the iTunes connectivity troubleshooting, no luck. Any suggestions/solutions?

The reason I found this problem is that I did a complete reset of my iPhone, so it reset all the content, through settings on the phone. That ended up deleting the ringtones I had. I tried searching up the same tones, however you can't "Install" already purchased stuff like you can in the AppStore.
I can't "iTunes wifi-sync" because you need to have connected at least once to the computer before you can wifi-sync, but because I reset my phone, it doesn't "remember" it once synced with my Mac cause I reset it.
I have gone through the "iTunes connectivity troubleshooting", nothing worked.
http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/itunes/#section_1
My iPhone charges fine with the USB-Wall outlet adapter, so its not the lightning connector or the USB connector on the other end of the cord.
All the USB ports on my Mac are functionning (working with other cords for printers, etc.), but still the iPhone persists not to be recognized in iTunes.
So I am guessing iTunes is the problem.
Any Help, Solutions, Suggestions, would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I had not tried that article, however I already went throught the troubleshooting assistant, which covers everything that article has.
I am about to try to delete and re-install iTunes though, which was mentioned in your artile link.
Thanks for the help.
I'll post my findings/results.

This process does not appear to work for me. I'm running 10.8.3. I created a new user for a guest staying with me. They have gone now and I am attempting to either change the password or delete the user. It won't allow me to choose the user I created. I am logged in as myself and it states that I am an "Admin". The user I'm attempting to change is listed as a "standard" user and there is a white checkmark inside an orange circular background on the user pic in the list of users.
Can someone help me? I am having a hard time believing that OSx will allow me to create users and allow them use of my computer and it's drives, yet it will not allow me to change the password so I can monitor what they might have been doing while logged on? What if this were my child? This guest left under sketchy circumstances, and I'd really like to be able to ensure they were not using my computer to do illegal things or to have illegal communications.
Any help would be appreciated. (It's odd that it was so simple to "create" a user and set a password for them.......but it's complicated or a little known process to reverse.
Thanks.

Here are two screen shots to show you what I am seeing. The first screen shot shows it allowing me to select (highlighted in blue) my admin user (which is what I am locced in as). The second screen shot shows it allowing me to select the "Guest" user (highlighted in blue). However when I click on the user "Orion" nothing happens. It will not change to highlight that user.
