Modify hyperlinks that are underlined

I'd like to include hyperlinks in my document, but I don't want them to be underlined. Instead I'd like to be able to adjust the colour of the text to indicate that it is a hyperlink. Is this possible in Pages?

Hello Rey,
Yes, you can change the formatting of a link. Select the text of the link and change the format, just as you would change any text's format. Selecting the text can be tricky if the link is active, not impossible, but tricky. Easier if you first go to the Link Inspector and temporarily "Make all Hyperlinks Inactive".
You can avoid having to deactivate the links if you sneak up on the link using the arrow keys and then hold down the shift key while continuing to tap the arrow key to do the selection, rather than using the mouse.
Regards,
Jerry

How do I remove advertizing hyperlinks that appear on every webpage?

Some kind of malware has infiltrated our system. On every webpage there are words that are underlined and in color. They appear to be hyperlinks for that webpage, but in fact are advertising hyperlinks. If you move the mouse to that word, an advertisement pops up. I tried to reset Firefox but that didn't work. Any suggestions?

You can check for recently installed suspicious or unknown extensions.

Hyperlinks to XLS, DOC, and PDF files that are included in a .chm file work intermittently.

SUMMARY
Hyperlinks to XLS, DOC, and PDF files that are included in a
.chm file (and the Baggage Files) only work intermittently. The
only solution appears to be deleting the Temporary Internet Files.
PROBLEM
1. I place the XLS, DOC, or PDF file in the Windows
sub-directory that corresponds to the RoboHelp project sub-folder
where the topic in which I’ll place the hyperlink exists.
2. I open the help project in RoboHelp HTML.
3. I right-click on the project’s Baggage Files
sub-folder that corresponds to the Windows sub-directory in which I
placed the XLS, DOC, or PDF file (in step 1).
4. I import the XLS, DOC, or PDF file.
5. I open the topic in which I’m going to place the
hyperlink in the WYSIWYG editor.
6. I “drag and drop” the Baggage File into the
topic (in the WYSIWYG editor) to create a link to it.
7. I save the changes and then generate HTML (.chm) help.
8. I open the .chm file and click the hyperlink. The XLS,
DOC, or PDF file may or may not open.
9. When the hyperlink works correctly, for DOC and XLS files,
a “File Download – Security Warning” dialog box
appears asking, “Do you want to open or save this
file?”. The buttons that are available are
“Open”, “Save”, and “Cancel”.
These buttons work then as one would expect. (When the hyperlink
works correctly for a PDF file, it simply opens the PDF file in a
new window; there’s no prompt to save, open, or cancel.)
10. When a hyperlink does NOT work, for DOC, XLS, and PDF
files, no dialog box or other visual message is displayed. Instead,
the sound that is associated with the “Exclamation”
program event is played (the “Windows XP
Exclamation.wav” file is the WinXP default).
Other Notes:
- The hyperlinks ALWAYS work when I view a topic using the
“View Selected Item” function (Ctrl+W) in the RoboHelp
HTML project.
- Once a hyperlink stops working, it will not start working
again until I delete all the Temporary Internet Files.
- A hyperlink will stop working even if Internet Explorer
(iexplore.exe) is closed the entire time.
WORKAROUND
Through trial and error, I have discovered that if a
hyperlink stops working, I can get it to work again using the
following steps:
1. Leave the .chm file open.
2. Open Internet Explorer.
3. Click Tools>Internet Options….
4. From the “Internet Options” dialog box, select
the “General” tab.
5. Under the “Temporary Internet Files” section,
click the “Delete Files…” button.
6. From the “Delete Files” dialog box, select
“Delete all offline content” and then click
“OK”. The files are deleted and the “Delete
Files” dialog box closes.
7. Click “OK” to close the “Internet
Options” dialog box.
8. Without closing Internet Explorer and without re-starting
the .chm file, all the hyperlinks that didn’t work before
will now work.
GENERAL SYSTEM INFORMATION
- Windows XP Pro, SP2
- Internet Explorer 6.0.2900.2180
- RoboHelp X5, 5.0.2 Build 801
- HTML (.chm) help project files exist on my local machine

- “Amount of disk space to use” is set to
“594” MB
“View Files…”
- An XLS or DOC file will be listed here if I click its
hyperlink and then click either “Open” or
“Save” from the “File Download – Security
Warning” dialog box.
- A file will appear here even if I click “Save”
and then click “Cancel” from the subsequent “Save
As” dialog box.
- If I click “Cancel” from the “File
Download – Security Warning” dialog box, the file does
not appear in the Temporary Internet Files folder.
- When a file does appear in the Temporary Internet Files
folder, its Internet Address is displayed similar to the following:
“ms-its:C:\PrimaryProjectFolder\ProjectName.chm::/SubFolderName/FileName.xls”
“View Objects…”
Here’s a list of all the program files that appear:
- “Microsoft Office Template and Media Control”

- “WUWebControl Class” (Last Accessed 12/13/06)
(Version 5,8,0,2469)
Today is 12/18/06 so the only program file that is listed as
having been “Last Accessed” today is the
“Shockwave Flash Object”.
REQUEST FOR HELP
I really want to include certain PDF, DOC, and XLS files in
their native format in a .chm file. However, I need a better
solution to my problem than the one I discovered. What I really
want is to avoid the entire problem altogether.
Have anyone seen this before or have any suggestions?

You wont be able to do that. The embedded objects would appear as images only.

Modifying PAR files that are used in ESS

Hello Experts,
I was asked to modify some iviews used in ESS, that are actually deveoped using NWDS. I was just given two PAR files and was asked to modify the methods for the requirement.
I have imported the PAR files into NWDS but got inot some erros with classpath. the classpath is incomplete so it says a class file is not found. I tried to add rerlated JAR files to resolve the issue. Even after that it says something else is not found. But all these errors are with related JAR files that need to be located to the project library.
Could you let me know what all libraries i need to add to the libraies instead of me adding one by one each time there is an error.
Thanks,
Sunil Kumar V

The Apple drivers that are downloaded for my HP printers do not allow me to modify the settings as I could when I was running a pc.

The Apple drivers that are downloaded for my HP printers do not allow me to modify the settings as I could when I was running a pc. Is there someway to get a printer driver that will permit full access to printer settings?

Perhaps you don't have the correct driver selected.
Try to Add it again, but instead of Auto-Select, choose Select Printer Software, then make sure you have the correct printer selected.
If the driver you have says "Gutenprint" then that isn't the HP driver and might not have all the features.
If you have the correct driver, the only thing you can do is contact HP and ask them to add the features.

Would like the ability to modify file signons.sqlite. Have signons that are incorrect, mis typed etc.

I have several signons for applications that are incorrect or are no longer used. I would like to have the ability to update file signons.sqlite and remove bad entries. Better yet give me the ability to have firefox remove unwanted signon id's by application.

It is ordinarily possible to modify files with a sqlite editor but there are security keys involved, luckily firefox allows you to easily change or delete the logins and passwords through the User Interface menus.

Does that solve your problem ?

In gmail the spell checker underlines the ends of words that are spelled correctly. Annoying at best.

running firefox 16.0.1 on pc with windows 7. This seems to have started with new version upgrade. In gmail the spell checker highlights last parts of words that are spelled correctly.

You probably see this bug (fixed in Firefox 21):

Create Hyperlinks that open in new tab or window?!

Hello,
Ok, so, this has been asked other times for many versions of InDesign and most common response is to do it in Acrobat Pro. WHY?!!!! I couldn't even easily figure out how to do it there and frankly, don't want to. That seems so backwards and tedious to have to do...seriously. How is this not an option in InDesign Hyperlink edit creation/options yet?!! It is SO simple. Please tell me I'm missing something... I love Adobe products and especially CC products that are getting better and more time saving...but this is so dumb, I'm sorry. I'm no smarty software engineer but I know what user friendly is and how things should work for everyone...and it seems like an easy thing to make possible. Many people create PDF's in InDesign for viewing/downloading in a browser and this needs to be an option with-in InDesign CC. Simple as that. When the PDF is opened in Acrobat the links do open in new tab/window but NOT when it is viewed in a browser. This is why I should or maybe shouldn't work for Adobe, I wouldn't let little things like this, that actually makes a big difference in user experience, go unnoticed and unchanged over so many new releases and updates...or ever be taken away. I guess I'll put in an InDesign CC features request...
Thanks to anyone who agrees and relays...or lets me know I'm missing something.

I would also like a solution to this problem. It seems to have been around for quite a while.

Can you add fields that are manually maintained.

I'd like to be able to add fields to my MAP Toolkit's inventory. For example, adding Asset and Warranty fields, to keep track of this information. I'd be maintaining the data manually, which is fine since it doesn't change very often. Is there a way to extend
the toolkit to include these types of fields?
So far the only solution I've been able to think of is to generate reports, convert the .XLS to .CSV, and then use PowerShell to merge the .CSV with a file containing the static information. This would be quite an undertaking as I'd need either different
scripts, of different logic paths, to deal with the multiple reports available from the toolkit.
Thanks
Jim Winner

The reports are generated using queries that are in stored procedures. I suppose it would be possible to modify the query so that extra columns would be created, but I don't know how you would get the data into MAP.

How do you remove non-App Store apps that are not in Applications from Launchpad?

Hi, this is my first post to the Apple forums...
     So, I use the Steam game app a lot to manage my different games on my computer. Recently, I cleaned out the games I no longer wanted or had lost interest in, and all of their files, INCLUDING the .app files stored in Application Support, were successfully deleted. But, Steam also automatically adds app shortcuts to the Launchpad when you download a game, which is an option I always left checked during the download process- because why not, right?
     The problem is that now, even after completely deleting ALL TRACE of these apps, they remain on my Launchpad. Just keeping them there isn't a solution; as a very neat, organized person, it would annoy me to the end of time to have random apps on my Launchpad that don't do anything. And since these apps aren't from the App store, they don't have an (X) in the upper left hand corner when you hold down on them.
     I don't know tons about Macs, but after a quick scan of things online people have recommended deleting all the files for your Dock under Application Support, because apparently Launchpad is based on your dock. But that doesn't sound right to me. I thought Launchpad was based on Applications? Again, I'm more savvy with Windows but I just got this thing a year ago so I'm doing what I can.
     On a side note, these game applications were stored in a folder titled "Games", which was originally identical within both Applications and Launchpad. Once I began deleting apps from the folder in Applications, however, they got stuck in the folder within Launchpad.
     I also cannot move Game Center out of the folder in Launchpad, and when I do so it says "This app cannot be modified/deleted", even though I originally had Game Center outside of the folder.
Computer specs:
MacBook Pro 15 Inch (mid 2009)
Running OS X Yosemite (10.10.1) [I updated just last night, I had been running 10.9 before and still had this problem]
Processor: 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory: 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT 512 MB

I found the following in the Macbook Help, and the last bullet worked for me.
"You can uninstall apps you got from the Mac App Store, from other websites, or from discs. You can’t uninstall apps that are part of OS X, such as Safari and Mail.
Apps downloaded from the Mac App Store: Click the Launchpad icon in the Dock, hold down an app’s icon until all the icons begin to jiggle, then click an app’s delete button . If you later want the app, you can reinstall it from the Mac App Store.If an icon doesn’t have a delete button, it can’t be uninstalled in Launchpad. For more information about Launchpad, see Use Launchpad to view and open apps.
Apps that have an uninstaller: In the Finder sidebar, click Applications. If an app is inside a folder, it might have an Uninstaller. Open the app’s folder. If you see Uninstall [App] or [App] Uninstaller, double-click it and follow the onscreen instructions.
Apps that don’t have an uninstaller: In the Finder sidebar, click Applications. Drag the app from the Applications folder to the Trash (located at the end of the Dock), then choose Finder > Empty Trash.If you change your mind, before emptying the Trash, select the app in the Trash, then choose File > Put Back.WARNING: When you empty the Trash, the app is permanently removed from your Mac. If you have any files that you created with the app, you may not be able to open them."

I have created a email in Fireworks and wanted to make a line of text a hyperlink that would take the viewer to a page on my website. I want to attach the final document to my email and sending it out.

I have created a email in Fireworks and wanted to make a line of text a hyperlink that would take the viewer to a page on my website. I want to attach the final document to my email and sending it out.

1) design for no wider than 600px (otherwise it may not fit in email clients).
2) Slice up your newsletter design in segments for images and html areas with the slice tool.
3) add the <a href="http://www.yourwebsite.com">my website</a> link in one of the html areas.
4) export as generic html 4 code, and put the images in a separate folder.
5) upload all the images to your website's server in a folder (you cannot embed images in an email newsletter - they must link to externally hosted images).
6) change all the links in your html page to the ones that were loaded up on your server. For example, an image's source link would work out similar to this: <img src="http://www.yourwebsite.com/newsletter/image1.jpg" alt="alternate description of your image">
7) open the newsletter with working external images in Chrome or Firefox. Select the entire page content (ctrl-a), and copy it (ctrl-c).
8) create a new email in your mail client. Place the cursor in the body. Paste the newsletter (ctrl-v).
9) send your newsletter to hundreds of recipients, and get blacklisted by several email servers. Receive warning messages from your own hosting provider not to spam other users' email accounts.
10) realize this is too much of a hassle, and instead opt for a service such as MailChimp.
(The result in (9) depends on whether you sent out your newletter only to acquaintances, or not. But even then you might be warned off.)
Btw, many email clients turn off images in an email by default. You must provide the most important content as html, not as images.

On images that are long and narrow horizontally, iPhoto truncates them and automaticall crops off part of each end of the image. How can I make it stop?

On images that are long and narrow horizontally, iPhoto truncates them and automatically crops off part of each end of the image. the thumbnail has a jagged, serrated edge at both ends. How can I make it stop?

Then I do not get your problem - you can import the photo - you can find the photo and you can edit and save the photo - what more do you want?
By defination thumbnails are small images to help you find the large image - the large image is fine and you can find it fine - and you know it is only showing part of the image because of the "jagged ends"
If you think think that iPhoto should display long thumbnails suggest to Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto Feedback
as to your digital photoframe - contact them - in general gital photos frames display one and only one aspect ratio and any photo that is not in that aspect ratio will be modified to display - either cropped to the proper size for the frame or have 'White" space added to fill the frame - that function is totally controled by the Digital Photo frame and any otptions you have will be in the manual or on the support web site for the frame - to put it in old film terms - you can not put an 8x10 print in a 5x7 frame unless you cut the photo down (or a 8x15 photo in an 8x10 frame either)

This column cannot enforce unique values because this list or document library may contain items that are not viewable by all users.

The above error occurs when I place unique constraint on a column in a custom list. This error only occurs because the custom list has been configured to only allow creaters to view and edit their own list items.
I just can't see why that should prevent SP from placing a unique value constraint though.
One easy workaround would be to place the unique constraint on the SQL Server table that represents this list. However, in a hosted environment, it is not always possible to gain access to the backend server. What is more, I am uncomfortable with this
approach as it may break other parts of SP 2010.
Is there any other approach?

Hi,
If SharePoint were to enforce uniqueness on a column in a list where users are only allowed to see and edit list items that have created, then you could have a scenario where -
a. user1 tries to add a new item to the list which violates the uniqueness constraint
b. SharePoint reports an error
c. user1 gets to know that there is another item containing the same value in this list
d. this violates the security settings that you configured (each user should be allowed to only see the items that they have created). Now if you change the permissions settings to allow users to SEE all items, but only
edit items that they have created, this error disappears (obviously).
Now getting to the workaround you mentioned (creating a unique constraint on the SQL Server table). This is not going to be possible for numerous reasons -
a. Modifying (or for that matter, even performing SELECT operations on) the SQL Server tables is an unsupported operation and it will definetely break other things in SharePoint, not
to mention that you will lose all support options from Microsoft. However if you don't care about this, then it will still not be technically possible because...
1. SharePoint does not create a new SQL Server table for every list/library.
2. If you did get around to enforcing a unique constraint in the one single table that SharePoint uses for all lists, then you will be enforcing this constraint on each and every list in all the sites and in all the site
collections that are assigned to that content database.

Template / generic page that holds items that are common to all pages

Hello,
I have to create around 50 pages which contain different items such as text boxes, check boxes, select lists etc. The pages also have some items that are the same on each page, for example the the 'previous', 'next' and 'save' button as well as a report region that is common to each of the 50 pages.
Is there a way to separate the unique items and the common items of a page? For example I tried to do it with a modified version of Carl’s report pull (http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=11933:48) that inserts (via AJAX) a page into the current page (like iframe). So I in the end I would have 51 pages; 50 pages with unique items and one page which would contain the common items and embed the others. But I would have problems with storing the values of the embedded page by clicking ‘save’ on my master page, since the values are not available on two different pages…
Or is it maybe possible to create a template page which I could assign to my 50 pages that would contain all the common items?
The easy reason why I would appreciate such a solution is that if I wanted to change a common element, I wouldn’t have to go on each single page but to change it just once for all pages. This would make the 50 pages much easier to maintain.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks and regards,
tomtom

Hi Scott,
page zero is a great suggestion. However, we don't need the items on each page. We could maybe exclude those few pages from page zero...
Also we are looking into PL/SQL Server Pages: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14251/adfns_psp.htm
Do they work in APEX-- could we include items (buttons etc) in the common code?
Thanks,
tomtom

Hyperlink that contains backslash is not working in Acrobat Reader 8 and 9

Hi,
Does anyone know why a hyperlink that contains backslash is not working in Acrobat reader 8 and 9?
I created a document in Indesign CS and it contains hyperlinks that open up files from network drive so they contain backslash (for example: c:\foder\forder\filename.jpg). All the hyperlinks work in Acrobat Reader 6 but not in Acrobat Reader 8 or 9.
Anybody could share the solution would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Did you ever figure this out? I am also having problems with the "No Hand" javascript which turns off the (not very helpful) page-forward hand icon (a hand symbol with a down arrow) which confuses our users when in fullscreen mode. We create interactive PDFs and everything worked fine up to Acrobat X/Reader X. Now in XI it doesn't allow the internal link icon (pointing finger) nor weblink icon (pointing finger with W) to appear. It just remains a plain o’ hand icon no matter what you mouse over even though there are links present.
