ITunes and other program links don't work
Hi guys,
After reinstalling OS X I stumbled upon the problem that for whatever reason Safari refuses to open Links that link to installed applications. Here's an example.
When open the iTunes webpage in Safari, look at an app and click "View in iTunes", the Tab then switches to "Top Sites" and nothing more happens. Same goes for email links. Furthermore, When I try to install an extension by downloading a .safariextz file and try tp open it, Safari does the same thing.
What is happening?! And how can I fix this?
Thanks in advance for helping!
<Post Edited By Host>
1. Safari > Preferences > Extensions
Turn those off and try.
2. Identify and remove adware

use Adware Removal Tool.

Recently the hard drive of my macbook failed, causing me to lose all of the contents on it - including my music. It wasn't of too major concern for me considering I have my iPod and have ripped music from it to iTunes before. Alas when I attempted to do so today neither iTunes nor any other iPod transfer program (senuti, phone to mac, irip) can recognize it. The music is still on there and I can still listen to it, I just am unable to access it on my computer apparently. Is there any manual way to move the files? iTunes continues to suggest I restore my iPod, but I really don't want to lose the almost 3000 songs I have collected over the last 5 years. Any suggestions/advice would be much appreciated!
Nevermind! I rebooted my iPod and my computer recognized it! Whew!

Problem fixing Lacie disk as storage directory for Itunes and other program
Hello,
I have a Lacie disk 250 GB, it works well but i don´t know why it creates different volumes, like "Lacie Disk 1", "Lacie Disk 2", etc. Like that untill 5! The problem is that once the system creates a new volume version, i can´t find the files in the older volume version. I have a lot of information in my "Lacie Disk 4" but can´t reach it. How can I do to enter to the Volumes folder from the finder? Thank u very much for assistanceHi eww,
Sorry, i didn´t explained it very well, but the problem is that I don´t understand this problem too. So, to answer you. 1) I did not partitioned my disk ; 2) When I connect it, i have just "Lacie Disk" on my finder ; 3) When I mention "volumes" the thing is that when I want to choose a directory for my downloads or Itunes, it appears on Powerbook G4/Volumes/LacieDisk. But then, I try to find it on the Finder but I can´t see that folder "volumes".
I opened Disk utility, and just to show how it appears
"Mount Point : /Volumes/LaCie Disk 5". My problem is that i don´t know why, it changed from LaCieDisk 4 to 5, and that i have information on that one which I can´t see but know it is there.
Hope to be clearer now, but i´m not sure :)) If you want i can send u by email a photo of my problem -
ITunes and other programs hang after starting...
Hello everyone,
Programs effected:
iPhoto
Adobe Acrobat
iTunes (Only when I open the iTunes Store)
Problem:
After about a minute, the program will hang and become unresponsive (pinwheel) but will not crash. I have to shutdown the program manually. The program will cause my CPU to max out until I force-quit it.
Any ideas for further diagnosis?
Thanks,
JaredNevermind! I rebooted my iPod and my computer recognized it! Whew!

I have two external drives, one for TM and one for iphoto and itunes. I don't want them backed up. Why can't I get this to happen except when I disconnect the itunes/iphoto disks
Check System Preferences -> time Machine - > Options and add the external hdd to the list of things to not Backup.
It is always a good idea to backup important files like Photos - nothing is worse than losing the Photos and having to explain it to the significant other who has an emotional attachment to them. -
CC Help and tutorial file links don't work
The help file and tutorial links on on my CC desktop and on all my apps do not work. Clicking on the help links defaults to a windows "notepad" that shows the code for the link. GeorgeReinstalling CC desktop or the app does not solve the problem. What is the issue. my system. Windows 7, 64bit PC. George
Scidata do you receive any specific error messages when opening your Adobe applications? Which Adobe applications specifically do you have installed?

ITunes and other programs active at the same time
Is there any way to have iTunes accessible and running while another program is active. When using iTunes to hear a song for reference and using another music program (such as a music publishing program) , it is very cumbersome to continually go back and forth to each program.
Yes, and this free program will give you complete control of iTunes from the OS X menu bar: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/ipod_itunes/youcontroltunes.html

Anyone know how to get the links to work in a PDF that was converted from Word?
Then the problem originates from Microsoft Word; you should ask in the appropriate Microsoft Office forum.

SWF loaded into MainNav SWF - Rollovers & Links Don't Work
Hi all,
This is probably a very basic question!
I have a Fla file with Text and Movie clips in it. The Text
is animated when rollover occurs and thumbnail images click and
link to the full size versions.
It works when published (Say "LatestText.SWF").
But when I call it from my Main Nave FLA/SWF, upon loading
the Text.SWF, the rollover anim doesn't happen and the picture
links don't work when clicked.
I have the latest flash player installed and the actual
weblink cursor appears as if the SWF acknowledges everything is
working, but nothing dynamic actually works.
Any Ideas? THANKS ALL! Much appreciated!I'll try to flesh it out, although I don't think there's need
for any code behaviours as they all work fine - until the info.SWF
is loaded into the main.SWF.
So i'll try my best to flesh this out:-
I have a Navigation FLA which publishes to SWF (at the moment
Allow access to Local Files - tried network).
This Nav.FLA is the main bulk of the website, it has all the
links and window panes.
I have a downloaded window pane style component which is an
autoscroller (in case this could be the problem).
I can load my info.SWF's straight into the container, by way
of an Actionscript Anim Frame (1) and when the Nav.SWF is tested or
published, it indeed loads in the smaller info.SWF no problems and
scrolls around beautifully,
The Info.SWF's I'm creating is just basically embedded
dynamic text, with a few movie clips that have Behaviours when
clicked or rolled-over.
These Behaviours do not seem to work when the Nav.SWF's
window pane loads in the Info.SWF - they APPEAR clickable (mouse
pointer changes to hand) but nothing clicks and THEN works. The
rollover animations (actioned via behaviours from LABELS - not
frame numbers) also do not work?
Any ideas from those that know to those that struggle would
be greatly appreciated! It's the first time I've encountered a
problem with my Flash website that I can't seem to find an answer
to in all my tutorials and books!
There's a challenge! -
I am not able to access to iphone updates/store; it displays the message under diagnostics 'secure link to itunes store failed'.
I tried to turn firewall off, reinstall itunes and other troubleshoot options but none of them works......
Please help.Update: I tried the "Toshiba Recovery Wizard" after everything else either fizzled out or hung up. After going all the way thru the recovery process (up to 100%), I finally got an error message.....it didn't work. And now, when I fire up the computer, I don't even get to that menu with the recovery options....the only thing I can boot into is the screens with the various ways to run your OS (in "safe mode", "safe mode with networking", etc).
I'm not a techie, but I'm guessing at this point, the part of my hard drive that got damaged in the fall was, at the very least, the partition with the recovery data. Couple that with the fact that this cheapo Toshiba laptop didn't even come with recovery disk (or ANY kind of disk, even basic installation software!), I'm screwed: I don't see any way to get a workable computer now without some kind of disk to boot from. So NOW my concern is more about spending the $$ for a new OS and THEN finding out the hard drive has other problems too...is broken in some other way to boot.
How to check this? As I said, I did run "chkdsk" back when I could get into the recovery menu and run the fix-it programs. It didn't note any problems. Thinking of taking this opportunity to upgrade to Windows 7 from Vista (which I never liked), but I have to know that the computer is otherwise ok....how to be sure? -
I updated to the latest IOS and now my passwords don't work. Reset 4 time which reset for my iPad and iPhone but I cant log into my itunes account using my apple ID it indicates an error, Help?
This may sound crazy, but download any free app. This often "shocks" the other apps into working.

Links don't work and Resolution Low
Hi
Just made 2 temp pages for my site, published to a folder and used Transmit to FTP upload to my serverspace which is hosted by yahoo.
The files transfer over but for some reason none of the hyperinks work at all and the resolution of the page is much lower than how it looked in iWeb which was pretty crisp. Anyone experience this problem? I urgently need to get the links working. All help appreciated!
Thanks
svenI've got a similar problem with links. They work fine on my mac and some pc, even my Palm Treo can access the site's links. But several pc users swear the links don't work. I made a test page with microsoft word and posted on .mac and it's the same problem. Anyone know what could cause this?

I'm trying to get a public link to my pdf file? I tried the system's process and the links don't work. I can't even copy the links I have to write them down and then enter them. Is anyone else having this problem. I've seen this question a couple times with no replies.
Hi mariondouglas,
Do I understand correctly that you've used Send to send a file that you've uploaded to Acrobat.com? What happens when you send to your own email address? Are you able to click the link in that email, and access the file that way?
If you're unable to copy the email in the browser window after you've generated a public link, please clear the browser cache, and try again. Or, use a different web browser (for a list of supported browsers, see System requirements | Acrobat.com).
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara -
Play Slideshow and Subscribe links don't work in IE
Hi, I published a site with the newest version of iWeb and the Play Slideshow and Subscribe links don't work for my friends who use IE. Also, only some of the pictures will open when clicked. Many of them do nothing when clicked.
Here's an example:
http://web.mac.com/jconstant/Scotland/Golfing.html
The site works with Safari and Firefox (both Mac and PC) but people with several different versions of IE experience the same problem.
Any ideas on how this can be fixed?Thanks for your reply. The problem is the whole page is one image and there should be several clickable areas which point to different links.
To solve this we have put a textbox over the clickable area, disabled the background and stroke and then right clicked on the textbox and used the hyperlink option to turn the whole box in to a hyperlink.
We tried several free PDF convertors which couldn’t handle this combination. Then we trailed it with the full desktop version of Adobe Acrobat Pro and it worked a treat. Unfortunately the client didn’t have that software so we signed them up to the online PDF convertor from Adobe and that isn’t handling it.
Here's the sample document: Dropbox - sample-link.docx we have been doing the tests with. -
Pushed my site live and my links don't work
I used Godaddy to register my domain. I am also using their DNS settings.
Created the site in Muse and previewed everything before I published... everything worked fine.
However, once I published the site and changed my settings upon prompt in Business Catalyst, only the homepage loads and my links don;t work.
I am only linking to one other page.
I pointed my host name on GoDaddy to 192.150.2.140
I have deleted my site 3 times now and republished. Set my links to lowercase etc.
the site domain is www.taxiadzbyg.com
Any help is much appreciated! I've read so many things, I am completely confused now as of where to start.
Thanks everyone.Hi,
I have checked the settings, they all look good to me. Also, I have checked the hyperlinks and they were working too.
Regards,
