Moving text with lots of web links (latest grief)

ID 6.0.6; OS 10.5.8; iMac G5; 4 gigs of ram
I have 5 pages of text with 60+ web links that I have just created and set as invisible. I now have to move all of this text to a second document.
Select and copy causes ID to crash.
Export to ID Tagged text causes ID to crash in second document when placing.
Export text to RTF causes all links to become visible in second document when placed. No crashing but I still have to fix 60+ links.

You shouldn't be having crashes just copying 5 pages of text.
The first things to do would be to use the most common troubleshooting tricks:
(1) Restore InDesign's preferences: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/526990
(2) If that doesn't work, you might guess the file is corrupted. Save it as an INX file: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/526991
Good luck!

  • How do ya delete all the text that is a web link?

    i am not only looking to disable hyperlinks, i want to remove all the links including the text of the links.
    like i want all the text that is a link to the web to delete. because i want to text to speech the thing and it has many links. ie this is a twitter thread, and i want all links out of my text, because it makes no sense for me to listen to them and kind of weird to listen to them. i only want the text, no links, no text of links. not only disable the link from being blue, but also deleting the information of the link. i do not want any links in my text, i do not want any text of web address in my document.
    i do not want to disable the links, instead i want all the web addresses out of the text.

    What is stopping you to erase them?

  • Problem copying text with graphs from web pages

    I can't copy text+graph from webpages. Copying into Pages or Microsoft Word for Mac, the text is copied the graphs are not. (With Firefox, I can't even copy text!)
    I have Parallels, and on the Microsoft side I have no problem copying both text and graphs simultaneously.
    Could you, please, advice

    Thanks.It works-sort of. I can copy into TextEdit without problems. This is probably the solution by itself because I can save it. Copying into Words (from TextEdit) didn't work. Copying into Pages partially works: the graphs are reproduced but the layout comes out funny.
    Thank you

  • Help! How to e-mail a PDF (from Pages) with active web links!

    I have been working on this for hours without any success! I would be so grateful for a brainy Apple wiz to help me out. I am creating a Pages document that has active web links in it. My goal is to e-mail my document with the active web links in it.
    So - If I export my Pages doc as a PDF to my desktop, the links work great! However - the moment I put that PDF into an email and send it the links become inactive. Is there any way to create a Pages document with web links > Export it as a PDF > Then mail with active (clickable) links? I have tried many times without success.
    If the answer to my question is no, does anyone have a tip for where I can create a PDF and mail it with active links? Will any of the Adobe programs work for this type of thing?
    Thanks so much!!
    Kristen

    Using Pages '09 v4.2.
    I just tested this. Assumption: You have the “Windows friendly attachments” checked in the attachments panel.
    Your Pages document is open. The web links are active. You want to get it into Mail.
    From the Pages menu bar, choose Share > Send Via Mail > PDF.
    Mail will open with a compose window. Your PDF will be attached as a full view document. You see the links present in the PDF.
    Now, click near the web links. This shows your PDF in blue. Now right-button click, and choose View as Icon from the pop-up panel.
    Now mail it to yourself on another account that Mail can open.
    You will see the web links in the PDF.
    Right-button click on a link and from the pop-up menu, choose Open with Safari.
    If you chose Quick Look, it would pop open the PDF and offer to open it further in your default PDF viewer. In my case, it is Adobe Reader.
    If Reader opens this PDF from the Mail attachment, the web links remain active.
    Does this solve your issue?

  • How can i copy text from web link title in safari

    Hi. How can i copy text to clipboard from web link title in safari in ios 7? Thank you
    Like this:
    http://photouploads.com/images/01wkw.jpg

    Once you have selected text, there will be blue circular buttons on the corners. Get the ones on the end and move them in towards the text that you want to copy. The problem that you seem to be facing where you are is that this text is a hyperlink. Because of that reason, you will have a difficult time tapping on the text without activating the link. I'm not sure you will be able to do that.

  • PDF export with link to document defaulting to "Open a web link" instead of "Open a file"

    I have a MS Access database and I'm trying to export reports to PDF (I have Acrobat XI Pro) that include a hyperlink to another document on the same drive on my computer.  I have tested this with hyperlinked email addresses, and emails export fine to PDF and are still functional, opening a new email in Outlook.  The hyperlinks to documents work fine in MS Access, opening a Word, PDF, or other document when clicked.
    When I export to PDF, the links to documents say, "This document is trying to connect to: file:" and my filepath.  If I say "Allow," the link tries to open in my default web browser, which comes up blank.  I've tested this on other computers in our office too.  When I right-click the link, I have the option to "Open weblink as a new document" -- this opens the document successfully, but won't be very helpful or fast for our staff.  When I examine the link with Tools - Add or Edit Link, I see that the link's action defaulted to "Open a web link" when the PDF was created.  This seems like it should be "Open a file."  To see if "Open a file" would work in theory, I tried creating a test button in a blank PDF and made the "mouse up" action "Open a file" and linked to various documents on my computer.  Each time, the button does not react to being clicked at all, like nothing happened.
    I also tried making a basic Word doc with just the hyperlink to another document.  It works fine in Word, but, when saved as a PDF, the hyperlink does the same behavior-- tries to connect to the web instead of opening the file on the computer.
    I have a lot of experience building Acrobat PDF forms and working in Acrobat, and I'm almost certain I've created links that open another file on the computer in Acrobat before, but I'm out of ideas and an internet search isn't turning up much.  I welcome any suggestions for things to try.  Thank you!

    This is what I currently have, and it attempts to open in a web browser.  Do you know of a setting in Acrobat I might need to change, or any other solution to tell Acrobat to open the "file:" URL as a document, not try to start the web browser?

  • Web Link Not Working in IE7 with Vista

    I have a fairly simple website of my photography (www.esdigitalart.com) that uses Lightroom flash galleries linked to a Dreamweaver CS3 home page. I use the Contact Info and Web Link in the Site Info Panel to create a "return to Home Page" link. This link works fine in my previous computer running Windows XP and my wife's computer, but since I bought a new computer with Vista and IE7, the website "works" fine including the flash galleries, but the "Return to Home Page" doesn't work. When I open a gallery and go immediately to the "Return" text there is a white underline, which disappears when I click on the text and nothing happens. When I browse a few pictures and go to the "Return" text (upper right corner) there is no underline and nothing happens with a click. I'm assuming it has something to do with the Vista - IE7 settings. Maybe some security setting, but it's frustration not to be able to check my website on my own computer. Any suggestions? Thanks

    Hi Betty,
    It seems to be an issue with Flash Security settings.
      Please follow the below steps (these steps are for Firefox and IE):
    Publish the project in a folder on c drive.
    Open the html file from the published output .
    Do the right-click on the screen and go to Global Settings.
    Go to Advance Tab.
    Scroll down and click on Trusted Location settings.
    Click on Add> Add Folder and navigate to your published folder and add it. (You can also add complete C drive so that you do not have to do this again for all the projects)
    Click on confirm and then close it.
    Now re-open the html file and try to view the attachments.
    These setting are only done when you are viewing the content locally. If you place the output on any server then you need not to do these settings.
    Hope it works..!
    Regards,
    Mayank

  • HT1688 On my iphone 4 below the search window, I have three greyed out safari icons with different web links attached

    I have a iPhone 4 8GB. I have three greyed out safari icons that doesn't say safari but a web link. It's like a bookmark to your homepage but not in your homepage.   I noticed it when I deleted all my web pages and on that one web page where it says "search or type in a address" right below it where it's just all white, there's three grey looking safari icons with each one with a different web site that's attached to it. When I tap on it it goes to a specific website. For ex one if them says www.longchamp.com, the other macys.com. There's no way to delete it. The wired thing is each one in color it like three shades of grey . Light, med and darker grey icons. When I hold down the icon you can move it around but can't delete, nothing just nothing. It's been there for the longest time I can remember. Do you know what this is? I took a pic of it. I don't know how to attach it to this discussion. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

    I seem to have fixed it by putting <div  class="clearfloat"></div> after the navigation bar?

  • Problem with Adobe 9.5.2 stalling when appending Web Links

    Every time I go to append a multi-level web link to a PDF using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.5.2 it stalls (this problem also occurs on a computer I have with Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.2 installed). I have tried repairing the program, installing updates, and restarting the computer with no luck. This problem only started happening 5 days ago after using the program with no problems for over a year. How can I fix this?   Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Open PDF. 2. Click on Advanced > Web Capture > View Web Links 3. Select desired web link > click "Properties" > chose number of levels or entire site > Press OK 4. Select desired web link again > click on Download   Results: Adobe starts to convert the web link for a few seconds and then stalls for hours with no success on a web link that previously only took two minutes to convert a week ago. Sometimes it will crash and I get the message "Adobe Acrobat has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."   Expected results: To be able to append the multi-level web link to the PDF.

    Hi Jamie,
    I was able to reproduce this crash. I've logged a bug with our engineering team.  When I hear more, I'll update this thread.
    I do not have a workaround for this issue at this time.

    Hi, I'm having problems with viewing a web page created with Adobe Muse CC latest release, I followed the various guides provided by Adobe, but the problem persists. The problem especially concerns the distorted display (the contents do not fit on the page, so it suits size automatically) to a mobile web page to be displayed not on a normal browser, but in a WebView.

  • Is it possible to add new columns with format "Text" once a table is linked to a form

    Is it possible to add new columns with format "Text" once a table is linked to a form in Numbers for iPhone or is it impossible and thus a serious bug?(Rating stars and numeric vales seem to work.)
    Those bugs happen both for new speadsheets as well as existing onces, like the demo. When you are in the form only the numeric keyboard shows up.
    Pat from the Apple Store Rosenstrasse/Germany approved that it looks like a Bug during the Numbers Workshop I was in: It is not possible to add new columns with format "Text". I reported the error for Version 1.4 but there is no update nor do I get statement of understanding the issue.

    Hi Knochenhort,
    I see what you are talking about now. Without knowing how the program actually works, I think this is what's going on:
    When you add a new column to an already existing table (with already existing formats), the new cells come already formatted like the previous column. So when you add a column to the end of the demo table, the cells are already formatted like stars, and when you add a column to the beginning, they're already formatted like number.
    I think this is why it's different when if you add columns to a table with blank (unformatted) columns. In that case, the new cells aren't already "tainted" with a set format, so you can change to text format without issue.
    It seems like the problem is that you can't format cells that are already formatted as "number" as "text" format (even if it doesn't look like they are, because they are blank). IMO, this is a bug! This is why you don't see this issue when adding columns to a new table, because the new cells don't already come with a format.
    To workaround, you can highlight the body cells after adding the new column, and delete the cells. This will "clear" the formatting, so you can then go in the inspector, format them as text, and the correct keyboard will pop up.
    Hope that helps!

  • Saving as a PDF with Active Web Links

    I need to save Word documents that have active web links in them to PDF files. When I save them to PDF, the links are no longer active. How can I save them with the web links in tact?

    You need Adobe Acrobat to do this (the Professional version, not the free Acrobat Reader or the OS X Print to pdf function. The software is rather expensive, though. There are less expensive versions (Acrobat Elements) but these only run under Windows.
    You can also use Adobe's online pdf creation service, which may be a better (i.e. cheaper) option.
    Hope this solves your problem...
