IPhone buttons with website hyperlinks won't work

Hi, I have done a few dps projects for iPad and Android tablets but am starting a new project for iPhone users.
The way I have set up buttons to link to websites before does not seem to be working. I can see the button but it doesnt do anything... I have tested the same file on the ipad and it works fine.
I know I am probably being stupid but does anyone have any hints?
thanks
Stuart

Hi Bob,
I usually just create a button under buttons and forms.
Put in in a 'go to URL 'action on release or tap.
and put in the url.
This works on adobe viewer on the iPAD and desktop but wont work on my iphone's adobe viewer.
thanks
Stuart

  • My mom's iPhone 4 with ios 6 won't work and won't backup

    My mom's iPhone is starting to take a **** on her. Everything is super super SUPER slow! Her texts won't go through and sometimes don't even send at all and just disappear. She tried updating it using her wifi at her work and it got to the VERY end and then told her she didn't have enough storage. So I went on her itunes later that night and tried to backup her phone so she wouldn't lose anything cause I heard the new ios7 erases pictures and contacts. It took 2 hours and the phone never backed up. It just acted like it was and never actually did anything. It never even finished 'backing up'. HELP! Mom is getting super frustrated and so am I!

    Try backing up to iCloud instead: Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Back Up Now.
    Then try restoring the phone in iTunes (which will also update it): http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.

  • When I try to delete message threads on my iPhone 5, the message app won't work until I restart my phone. Once it restarts, the message threads that I tried to delete are still there. Any advice?

    When I try to delete message threads on my iPhone 5, the message app won't work until I restart my phone. Once it restarts, the message threads that I tried to delete are still there. Any advice?

    I recently spoke to someone from Apple support, and here's what I gathered:
    "Older" phones (read: anything iPhone 4s or older?) sometimes have trouble keeping up with the processing demands of the newest software. When deleting threads with a lot of media (photos, videos, etc), it can take a lot of processing to successfully delete. What this support tech suggested was picking some of the bigger threads at night before you go to bed, deleting them, and then leaving the phone alone-- and plugged in-- overnight to give it enough time to delete everything. He suggested not even pressing the lock button; just leave it to process (though I imagine the screen will lock on its own anyway).
    Not sure if it works yet since I just spoke to him, but it's the closest thing I've got to a solution!

  • I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there.  I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working.  Please help.

    I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version.  I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again.  I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again.  My blue tooth doesn't work either.  I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this.  When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue.  My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!!  I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue.  Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it.  Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
    June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple.

  • I just updated my Iphone 3G and now it won´t work anymore. It wouldn´t even boot. It was just working for 3 sek. after the installation and now it shut itself down. Any help, please?

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.
    You also said: "It also will not let me download any music onto it." What happens when you try to sync music to the iPod?

  • Hyperlinks won't work on some pages

    Hi,
    I created a document in CS3. I have lots of hyperlinks within the pdf, but for some reason all of the hyperlinks on specific pages won't work. I've even copied and pasted the hyperlinks from pages that do work. Please help!

    Hi Sandeep,
    Thanks for responding - in answer to your questions:
    - there are no links to local files, all URL's starting http://www.
    - I'm using Acrobat Pro X (although also checking it in plain old Acrobat Reader)
    - I'm creating it with InDesign CS5
    - The links are definitely there when I open it up in Acrobat. I've evn tried setting the links up using Acrobat to test if it was a problem exporting from InDesign but that also didn't work for them.
    I'm checking with the client now about the version(s) of Acrobat Reader they're on and also asking them to check the links within it. Are there any settings their end which could stop them working do you know? They've told me older documents with URL hyperlinks are still working fine, so wouldn't appear to be that.
    I'm afraid this file is confidential, so I can't really share.
    The latest test I've tried are to create a new 'for web' document and that seems to have helped testing on a different machine, although I'm waiting to see if it's had any effect with the client. I cannot think of any other things to try right now!
    Thanks for all your help - any more suggestions or advice you can offer will be much appreciated!

  • Movie contains buttons with keys assigned. Both work. If you click a button first, keys wont work.

    I created a project with a menu of 7 buttons. The client has the option to click the buttons to view a different scene or use keyboard events. Each scene has been assigned a number when using the keyboard. The mouse and keyboard events function successfully. But I noticed if I start the movie by using the mouse, then the keyboard events will not work any more. One of the keys is important since it is the only way to play frame to frame. Anybody have a clue why this happens?It is as if though I have to tell the client,  don't click the buttons or the keys won't work.
    Below are actionscripts for the movie. I added actionscript for each scene for the keyboard events. In the menu, the movieclip contains the actionscript for the mouse events.
    Scene 1:
    import flash.events.KeyboardEvent:
    stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, onKeyEvent1);
    function onKeyEvent1(e:KeyboardEvent):void {
    var character:String=String.fromCharCode(e.charCode);
    if (e.keyCode==72) {
      gotoAndStop(1,"master");
    if (e.charCode==49) {
      gotoAndPlay(1,"Distributor");
    if (e.charCode==50) {
      gotoAndPlay(1,"Mirka");
    if (e.charCode==51) {
      gotoAndPlay(1,"Farm");
    Menu Movieclips:
    master.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mouseDownHandler1);
    function mouseDownHandler1(event:MouseEvent):void {
    MovieClip(root).gotoAndPlay(1,"master");
    distribute.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mouseDownHandler2);
    function mouseDownHandler2(event:MouseEvent):void {
    MovieClip(root).gotoAndPlay(1,"Distributor");
    health.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mouseDownHandler3);
    function mouseDownHandler3(event:MouseEvent):void {
    MovieClip(root).gotoAndPlay(1,"Mirka");
    mirka.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mouseDownHandler4);
    function mouseDownHandler4(event:MouseEvent):void {
    MovieClip(root).gotoAndPlay(1,"Farm");
    transaction.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mouseDownHandler5);
    function mouseDownHandler5(event:MouseEvent):void {
    MovieClip(root).gotoAndPlay(1,"Check2");
    transaction2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mouseDownHandler6);
    function mouseDownHandler6(event:MouseEvent):void {
    MovieClip(root).gotoAndPlay(1,"Check3");
    sceneA.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mouseDownHandler7);
    function mouseDownHandler7(e:MouseEvent):void {
    MovieClip(root).gotoAndPlay(1,"Scene2");
    sceneB.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mouseDownHandler8);
    function mouseDownHandler8(e:MouseEvent):void {
    MovieClip(root).gotoAndPlay(1,"Scene1");

    In addition to my question, I'm opening the SWF file in a utility program IrfanView which the client uses for offsite purposes. Therefore, the SWF works fine in Flashplayer 10. I can crossover using mouse and keyboard events. But in IrfanView, the program will not allow me to crossover mouse and keyboard events.

  • TS1398 I have an iPhone 5 and my apps won't work on LTE but they will when I'm connected to wifi. Am I the only 1?

    I have an iPhone 5 and my apps won't work on LTE but they will when I'm connected to wifi. Am I the only 1?

    I am having the same problem. I am not able to load ESPN or any of its affiliated apps. I also tried craigslist and ebay using safari and no luck. I tried contacting ESPN and they told me to contact AT&T. So I have been chatting with an AT&T rep for about an  hour and haven't had any luck. Some friends who also have AT&T are having the same problems, while those with Verizon are working fine. I'm from the St. Louis are if that's any help.

  • Hyperlinks won't work on some (my client's) machines but are fine on others

    Hi All,
    I’m stuck on an infuriating problem and I'm really hoping someone here may be able to help.
    I’ve created a report for a client which includes several hyperlinks to URL’s. These work perfectly on my PC, also on my MacBook (in both Acrobat and Preview) but the client is not seeing them at all – and they’re trying them on several machines apparently (both Mac & PC runing Acrobat Reader). I’ve had another friend test the PDF on his MacBook and he sees the links, but they don’t work entirely as they should.
    I’ve been through all the Adobe help pages and thought I’d found the solution by unchecking the ‘Shared Hyperlink Destination’ box – but that’s not made any difference. I’ve played with the settings on exporting the PDF; I’ve tried the >Export> Adobe PDF (interactive) way; I’ve tried defining my own pre-set with Incldue-Hyperlinks checked; I’ve tried deleting the hyperlinks from InDesign and manually inserting them from inside Acrobat Pro – all to no avail!
    HELP!
    This is a new client with a whole stack of work lined up for me and this has been the only problem with this job – so I need to find a solution!!
    Thanks,
    Luke

  • Apple TV2 airplay audio (via Airport Express) works well with music, but won't work with any video.

    I have an ATV2 and Airport Express connected to speakers all connected to the same network. It all works with music, but won't work with any video audio. In my ATV's settings I've selected my AirPort Express speakers. It works for music, why not everything else? Is there a fix or work around?

    Netflix is first on that list...What I mean is, if there is a feature that allows for a wireless audio connection to the Apple TV, why wouldn't the developer allow it. To keep me from enjoying a more convient connection? I can have the same listening experience on a wired connection...

  • IPhone 5 with updated ios8 won't change orientations (landscape vs portrait).

    My iPhone five with updated ios8 won't change orientation between landscape and portrait. Does anybody have any suggestions?

    Hi lmilesfromnowhere, 
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    There may be a couple of different things I would suggest here. The first thing I would do would be to check and make sure the orientation lock is off. 
    iOS: Screen does not rotate
    If the lock is off and the issue continues, I would recommend restarting your device. If the issue continues after the restart, reset the device. 
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    Have a great day, 
    Joe

  • I have an iphone 4s with ios7. Does it work with 4g? If not what i can do to upgrade it?

    I have an iphone 4s with ios7. Does it work with 4g? If not what i can do to upgrade it?

    The version of iOS is irrelevant to 4G connectivity.
    The iPhone 4S supports HSPA which is considered 4G by some carriers, it is NOT an LTE capable device.
    If you want a device that supports LTE, you will need to upgrade to an iPhone 5 or newer.  LTE capability requires hardware that does not exist in the 4S or older iPhones.

  • My iphone 4 'phone app' suddenly won't work

    My iphone 4 'phone app' suddenly won't work. It's not a microphone or other hardware problem because I can use viber normally. I have already upgraded to iOs 6.1.2 from a 5.1 (when the problem started), and even after the restore it still won't work.

    This is asked and answered multiple times daily.
    If you've tried a restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new as recommended in the User Guide and this fails to solve your problem, then you have a hardware failure and will need to bring your phone into Apple for replacement.
