Invalid URL in tutorial - any ideas?
Has anyone gone thru the 'Automated Invocation of a .NET Web Service' tutorial available in OTN? This tutorial
lists a sample webservice URL that is accessed.
However, it is invalid.
http://hosting001.vs.k2unisys.net/Weather/PDCWebService/WeatherServices.asmx
Any idea on what the correct the URL to complete
the tutorial? Thanks.

Eric thank you, thank you, thank you. It worked perfectly!
I wanted to take some time to see if it was going to last and sure enough it has. It has been about 2 weeks and no invalid URL messages anymore. I can jump from site to site without errors. I do social media for a living and you wouldn't believe how much it slowed me down before. I would have to save everything I was doing and restart my computer at least 4 or 5 times a day.
You need to post this on YouTube.
Dewerd I am sure you will fine that everything is perfect with your computer now too. Eric you are the best!

I am trying to update Itunes - message received is " Invalid signature - download removed" Wassup doc ???
Try the update again. I received the invalid signature message when I updated to 10.5.1, but re-trying sorted it out. I might have had to re-start my computer, I can't remember now.

I have just upgraded to the icloud and now I am getting an error message on ical - saying "make sure the URL is correct", I haven't changed anything so why is it now an issue? any ideas?
The full message sasy "The calendar https:// cal.me.com:8443/principas/users/(server number) was not found on the server. Make sure the URL is correct.10.6.8 cannot access iCloud's facilities - you can set Mail up manually and there is a hack which some people have used to sync calendars (see below) - you cannot sync any other type of data.
This is the situation with iCloud and Snow Leopard:
Your email, calendars, and 'Find my iPhone' will be migrated to iCloud. Contacts and Bookmarks cannot be migrated from a Snow Leopard Mac.
Your iDisk, together with website hosting and Gallery, will continue to work as before until next June.
Syncing of Dashboard Widgets, Dock Items and Keychains between Macs, and Mail Accounts, Mail Rules, System Preferences, Signatures & Smart Mailboxes between Macs & iOS devices, will cease altogether.
You will be able to access email and calendars on the iCloud website at http://icloud.com provided your browser is reasonably up-to-date.
You will not be able to sync contacts or bookmarks from a pre-Lion Mac.
You will be able to enter the server settings for email manually in the Mail application and access your email.
You will not be able to sync your calendars directly.
Some people have been able to set up calendar syncing by using the method detailed here - this is an unsupported hack and may not be reliable, and may stop working at some future point. BusyCal is an iCal-like calendar application with extra facilities: it can sync with the iCloud Calendar while running on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion.
There appears to be no method of syncing contacts (though Address Book on a Mac can be synced with Google or Yahoo address books - I don't know how reliable this is). -
Hi everyone,
was prompted to upgrade itunes on my PC and also upgrade the software on my iphone 4s.Went through as usual but took 3 goes to get a successful upgrade of itunes on the PC. Then was prompted to update quick time, this was done successfully.
Thought I'd look at the tutorial video for itunes - the sound went off 11/2 minutes into it, then I couldn't stop it. I had a quick look around itunes and decided to sync my phone. The program recognised the phone then everything froze. Windows message for a non responding program came up and had to pull out of the program. So far after several hours I have not been able to get beyond stage 2 of 7 of syncing the phone; it keeps freezing up at different stages.
Any ideas?? I haven't had this kind of trouble before with any other version of itunes.
CheersStill nothing? Wow... maybe the quality of this discussion board really has gone down. Dissappointed.

I get the error "missing or invalid personalization information" This used to run, I'm now on Windows 7 64 bit. Anyone have any ideas please? Thanks.
Hi,
If my memory serves me right (it’s some while since I changed and I have not used Photoshop for some years…) I was running it on XP. I upgraded to Win 7 on a new machine but ported across files, programmes etc. I cannot recall if Photoshop ever ran on Win 7.
I have tried to reinstall but the CD is warped and despite applying pressure to it neither of my drives likes it. I have Photoshop 7 on my third hard drive, a portable drive, which came from the XP machine.
Sorry, long-winded but I hope it helps. -

Firefox won't open any website and displays an Invalid URL at all websites.
Until now, I had no trouble with Firefox but everytime the new Firefox updated, everything came up as Invalid URL. For about a week I realised I could 'restore previous versions' of the file every day but now that isn't an option and I cannot access any website.
Can anybody help me?hello christine, since this can sometimes be caused by malware active on a system, please run a scan with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes], [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] & [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx microsoft safety scanner].

Random letters added to my url - any ideas?
Hi Guys
On this particular site we started seeing funny random letters and numbers added to our urls - we did not touch these pages in quite a while and it only started about a week ago. Even if you change the url in "SEO" etc... it automatically adds it.
Any ideas?
See http://tonipizza.co.za/Tonis_Pizza_Menu.html#.UbIe3JU56YU
it should read http://tonipizza.co.za/Tonis_Pizza_Menu.html
Support says it might be one of our scripts that "broke" -- but sounds like a bit of a stretch to me. Again, we have not touched code on this page for a loooong time.
Thanks
CasperHey Casper,
There's some sort of conflict with a content holder you have placed within the page. When you remove it the url restores back to normal.
I would look into this script in the "add this" content holder which most likely is affecting the output of the url.
Kind regards,

I have Aperture 3 iinstalled and have used it for quite a while. Now when I try to open it a licensing window appears and wants the reg #. I copy it from the program on another comupter, yet it says that it's invalid. Any ideas?
Check this support article:
Troubleshooting Professional Application Serial Numbers:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2005
Sometimes look-alike characters may be confused, also you may need to enter the previous registration numbers as well, if your Aperture version is an upgrade to Aperture 2 or 1.

I have elements 5 on a vista pc. Elements will not open I receive the message "Attempt to access invalid address". I have re-installed but still receive the same message. Any ideas please.
Make sure your user account has full administrative permissions. Then, at this stage of the game, I would take the following steps:
- Re-create the Preferences file following these instructions:
Re-create the Photoshop Elements preferences file to eliminate problems that a damaged preferences file might cause.
Note: When you use this solution, Photoshop Elements will create a new preferences file and you will lose custom settings associated with your current preferences file. However, the file you rename in step 2 is your original preferences file. If you determine that the preferences file is not causing the problem, then you can restore your custom settings by undoing the instructions below.
To re-create the Photoshop Elements preferences file:
Quit Photoshop Elements.
Locate the Adobe Photoshop Elements preferences files. In Photoshop Elements 5.0, there are two preferences files, one for Organizer and one for Editor:
Users\[ user ]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\5.0\Organizer\psa.prf
Users\[ user ]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\5.0\Editor\Photoshop Elements 5 Prefs.psp
Rename the extension for the files (for example, to psa.old).
Start Photoshop Elements. Photoshop Elements creates a new preferences file.
I doubt that this will fix your problem, however, it is always the first thing to try. If it does not, take these steps:
- Uninstall Photoshop Elements
- Run the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301)
- Reinstall Elements
- Reinstall the 5.0.2 patch
Good luck,

HTTP 400 Bad Request Invalid URL error when URL contain only percent "%" without any Hexadecimal
Hi All, I'm trying to redirect a custom error page when URL contain percent "%" symbol. But when I use percent "%" symbol in URL (https://mctest.aspial.com.sg/%), its saying below error. I don't want to show this error message. I want
to redirect users to custom error page. I already added custom error page in IIS & Web.config file for status code 400. But It's now working. It's still showing the same error.
Bad Request - Invalid URL
HTTP Error 400. The request URL is invalid
Is there any way to redirect custom error page when URL contain only "%" symbol? Anyone please help me on this. Thanks advance.
Below are my server details:
IIS version 7.5
.Net Framework 4.0I see, so the issue isn't with the % in the query string but rather the URL path itself. In that case I don't believe this is anything related to your app but rather the web server. When you provide a URL the web server has to map that to an
application. Depending upon where the character falls determines who gets to handle it. Since the % is next to the domain name it is most likely not being mapped by the web server so you get the general 400 error. Since this isn't an app
issue but a server level issue you'd have to redirect at the server level (in IIS: Server\Error Pages). If the % is inside an application's virtual directory then it becomes an issue for the application (in IIS: Site\Error Pages).
But things can get more complicated. The web server generally has filters so it won't support requests for certain things (like web.config in ASP.NET apps). Filtering can be done anywhere between the server and the application. Complicating
this is virtual path providers (like MVC).
To be honest I don't think you should be worrying about this scenario. An invalid % in a URL is a bad request so you shouldn't try to treat it differently than a regular 400 error. In fact I'd say that it could be a security hole (depending
upon what you're doing). So you can customize 400 errors at the server or app level if you want but I wouldn't bother trying to distinguish bad URLs from bad requests.
I recommend you post this question in the ASP.NET forums (http://forums.asp.net ) to see if anyone has a better answer.

I am trying to connect to apple support and it keeps asking me to put in the SN of my MAC and when i do it says that the SN is invalid I am putting in the SN from about this mac and it is the same as the one on the bottom of the MAC any ideas ?
Did you purchase this product direct from Apple online, in an Apple Store, or through a third-party authorized reseller? Or did you buy it from an original owner whose Applecare plan was supposed to be transitioned to a new owner, by them?
Do you have an original shipping carton the unit arrived in?
If the product was a retail 'open carton' purchase and no
back-track is possible, contact the reseller.
And if the computer had seen a major service with logic
board replaced, etc, it may have other issues with serial
number vs one they may have assigned it. Usually a
new logic board may have the SN flashed or if a unit
was determined to be a reman, a new # assigned. But
that would appear in System Profiler, if officially reman.
If you registered a product anywhere with Apple, it would show on a web page along with its serial numbers, going back several years, at this page after you log in there.
https://getsupport.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action
A blue text with triangle See all products and services opens an Apple ID
sign-in window, then the page changes to show your items & info about them.
If you run the serial number through online Lookup, what appears?
http://www.powerbookmedic.com/identify-mac-serial.php
Not sure if this helps, 'your product' should appear - if registered.
Good luck & happy computing! -
The number of contacts on my Macbook,iPhone and iCloud are all different. So when i tried to import contacts which i thick are called vCards from my address book on to my iCloud through the options menu on icloud a message came up saying "invalid vCards"? Any ideas? Really want to get this sorted if i could
CheersWelcome to the Apple Community.
Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
This user tip might help you understand how accounts work with Address Book. (25)
