  • "Previous View" Links not Working

    I have a document ( a multi-page process flowchart) that has "Previous View" links embedded into it.  When I view the document in the Adobe Acrobat reader app for iPhone, the "Previous View" links do not work.  My other links (links to specific document pages) however, work fine.  Is this a bug in the app, or could this be a compliance problem with my document?

    Within Adobe Acrobat 10 (full version -- not just the reader), if you click on the link tool, you can highlight an area on the doument.  You can then define the link appearance and actions (such as go to a specific page number, open a file, go to a URL, etc). If you select "Custom" for the action, you can then specify from a whole list of diffent menu items (zoom in, zoom out, first page, last page, previous view, last view, etc...).
    I find that my previous view links works great in a web browser on my PC or Mac (works in IE7,Safari, Firefox), but not in Acrobat for IOS.

  • Since Reader X previous view tool not working with linked documents

    We have many linked pdf documents. After upgrading to Acrobt Reader X we can´t go back to the parent document by using the "previous view" command. In older versions we can use this function to navigate back. Is there an option in the preferences to reactivate this possibility?  

    I have been told by Adobe support that this is not a bug, but a security feature.
       Our company has, over many years, developed for our most important software application a PDF help system with hundreds of books and thousands of pages. There are myriad links between and within the books. In order to make navigation through this morass easier, we have provided our users a starting "Main Menu" with links to the books. We also set it up so that only one PDF is open at any given time ("open in same window" option), otherwise a user could end up with hundreds of open PDF documents on their taskbar or desktop. We also have our users take advantage of the "Previous View" mechanism to make it easier to navigate while keeping only one window open at a time.  (The browser "Back" button trick will not work with PDFs that have been closed).
      However, Since version X of the Reader, the Previous View mechanism will not work with PDFs that have been closed. That is, you can only get back to a previous view in another PDF if it is still open. As mentioned above, this could leave our users with hundreds of open PDFs, and thus it is not an option for us. But Adobe has ignored our pleas.
      You must vote with your feet; that is all Adobe understands. Adobe does not care about our needs and we have given up on them. We are currently telling our users:
      "If you use a non-Adobe PDF reader, you will be able to install it on a system alongside any version of Adobe Reader, including version 10. We have found that Tracker Software makes an excellent free product called PDF-XChange Viewer, which may be downloaded HERE. PDF-XChange has a smaller footprint, is faster, and has more features than Adobe Reader, including a 64-bit version for Windows XP/Vista/7.
      To set up this program to optimally use our help system, go to Preferences, and under "General," specify that the Documents Layout be Single rather than Multiple. Then you will be able to use the Alt keys with the arrows, or the Previous/Next View buttons on the toolbar, with closed PDFs."

  • When I open Safari multiple windows open with previously viewed websites

    For some reason since I upgraded to the OS X Lion and Safari 5.1, when I open Safari it opens up multiple windows with previously visited websites. When I close some sites they reopen again in another window. Why is this happening?

    The new iTunes has a somewhat different look from the previous version.  You can get the old look back if you prefer it by doing View > Show Sidebar in iTunes.  Or you can adapt to the new look.

  • "View Film Rolls" is not Highlighted.... how can I get to it? (iPhoto 6)

    "View Film Rolls" is not Highlighted.... how can I get to it? (iPhoto 6)

    Since you're using the term Rolls you must be running iPhoto 6 or earlier. For future problems be sure you post in the iPhoto 6 or forum.
    For this problem the View File rolls will only Be sure you're clicked on the Library. That menu item is not available in an album or other item. If you have clicked the library icon first and it's still grayed out close iPhoto, delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder and then try again.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Current date not highlighted in month view

    I currently am using iCal 3.0.8 on OSX 10.5.8 on Intel. The current date is not highlighted in month view. It was highlighted on 10.4 on my G4.
    Is this a new feature - or, am I missing a setting?

    It's definitely highlighted, but it's just a much paler shade of blue than earlier versions of the operating system, so if you're looking at your screen from the wrong angle, it looks like nothing is highlighted at all. The only solution to this is to do what I did, which is switch to the OUTSTANDING calendar program BusyCal from busymac.com, which is like "iCal Pro". They got everything right about BusyCal that Apple should have gotten right themselves in iCal. The date highlighting is extremely visible. BusyCal syncs with iCal, so your data will instantly appear in BusyCal as soon as you open it for the first time. I've been using BusyCal for about 3 months now, and it is absolutely awesome. I will NEVER go back to iCal ever again. I can't say NEVER loud enough. Apple completely screwed up iCal, whereas the BusyMac guys got everything right about BusyCal.

  • I have a problem with FP 13 in that a Council website with a regional map viewer will not now open.

    I have a problem with FP 13 in that a Council website with a regional map viewer will not now open.  The site was designed around FP 10 and the link they have to download FP 10 nowalso directs to FP 13.  I followed the "How to revert to FP 11.7 (Chris Campbell Oct 2013)  along with the uninstall instructions link and now have both zip FP 10.3 and zip 11.7 in my downloads.  I attempted to run FP 11.7, the "winax" file for IE after unzipping it but I am blocked bya window that says I cannot do this and must install FP 13.  The only choice in this window, other than downloading is QUIT.  What is the best approach now.  The website is Auckland Council and the window concerned is "GIS Viewer".   neither Chrome or IE will open it.

    Hi 34wiki,
    There is only one uninstaller for Windows that will uninstall both 32- and 64-bit versions of the Flash Player. At one point there were two separate installers (one for 32-bit OS and another for 64-bit OS), but that has not been the case for a long time. Based on the error, it's possible you may using an older version of the uninstaller (to find out the version of the uninstaller, right-click on the file, select properties, then the 'details' tab).  The latest version is always posted to this link, and will work on both 32- and 64-bit operating systems.  If you get the same error using this uninstaller, please post the contents at the end of the FlashInstall.log file, that show the uninstall attempt.  Since you have a 64-bit OS, there will be two files at the following locations:
    32-bit: C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
    64-bit: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash

  • Previous/Next View commands not available

    I have two PDF documents created from Adobe Acrobat 7.
    Using Adobe READER, in one document I can navigate around jumping through several different pages and zoom levels and then use the right-mouse click to choose "Previous View" or "Next View".
    In the other document these commands are not available and the tool icons are grayed out.
    The only difference I can see between the two documents is that one has Fast Web View enabled and the other doesn't. I went back and resaved trouble document with Fast Web View enabled, but it didn't help after testing it again.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    It depends on which program you used to create PDF too.

  • Current day not highlighted in month view!

    after updating to: OS X 10.4.9, the current day is not highlighted in the calendar view in ical. the current day is highlighted in the day and week views, just not the month. I cant find any way of turning it on. Has anyone else had this problem after uptating the system OS to 10.4.9? any help would be appreciated. it is quite annoying.

    I've found a solution to this problem that has been bugging me for months. As others have reported, the "today" highlight in iCal had disappeared. I also noticed a similar problem when using Gmail. Gmail highlights read mail with a blue background on the mail item in the main list. This also disappeared. Strangely, I would see both of these highlights reappear for a moment when I did fast user-switching to a different account. Just before the Mac would switch to another account, the screen would darken and those highlights would appear. This seemed to indicate that the problem wasn't with the applications but rather with the system.
    Here's how I fixed this: I went to the Display system preferences. I selected the Color tab. THe display profile was Cinema Display. I selected another profile (in my case I chose Adobe RGB (1998)). Immediately, the missing highlights reappeared. I then reselected Cinema Display and the highlights remained (although slightly lighter).
    Somehow, the display profile got changed enough to wash out those light blue highlights, but switching profiles brought them back.
    This worked for me on my Apple Cinema LCD display. I don't know if this will work on another brand LCD display or on a CRT. But at least I've found a way to bring these highlights back. I'll be curious if this solves anyone else's problem.

  • Start Firefox and homepage is not displayed; cannot navigate back to previously viewed pages using back or forward arrows; bookmarks toolbar not available on start-up though selected in options menu.

    1. Start firefox and my homepage is not displayed--there is no webpage displayed on initial startup. A homepage is listed in the options menu. In order to see homepage I need to manually press the home icon to the right of the search box.
    2. I am not capable of using the navigation arrows to the left of the address bar to navigate to previously viewed webpages. The arrows are present but are gray. Is there a setting in the security tab of the options menu that disables the navigation arrows for security purposes (i.e. not remembering webpages or cookies, etc.)?
    3. Though the bookmark toolbar is selected in the options menu, the bookmarks toolbar is not visible when starting firefox. Instead there is a red firefox toolbar located at the upper left of the screen. In order to view the bookmarks toolbar I need to go into the options menu and de-select the bookmarks toolbar (causes the red firefox toolbar to disappear) and then re-select the bookmarks toolbar.
    Any information to help correct these issues is greatly appreciated.
    Mike

    ''framerotblues'' suggestion worked for me. I was having the following problems after 10.0 update:
    >No back/forward buttons.
    >Nothing in address bar.
    >Bookmark toolbar would not automatically load. Even though it was checked as a toolbar to view, I had to uncheck and check it again every time I closed/opened Firefox.
    >Could not access add-ons. Neither through menu toolbar nor using ctrl-shift-a
    Restarted Firefox with add-ons disabled (help->restart with add-ons disabled). Removed ''Facebook Disconnect'' from add-ons. Restarted and everything seems to be working.

  • I have set hyperlinks within my ibook author document, they work perfectly until i export and view on the ipad, when only one or none work, (hyperlinks to website not working at all) what am i doing wrong?

    I have set hyperlinks within my ibook author document, they work perfectly until i export and view on the ipad, when only one or none work, (hyperlinks to website not working at all) what am i doing wrong?

    An external hyperlink should handoff to Safari and leave iBooks.
    If that's not happening, perhaps there is something misconfigured on your iPad? Have you manually confirmed those links work in Safari on your iPad?

  • ITunes randomly stops playing purchases that have previously viewed on the same hardware. It has an error message about HD. How can this issue be resolved?  What information is available besides the "learn more" option that does not deal with the problem?

    iTunes randomly stops playing purchases that have previously viewed on the same hardware. It has an error message about HD. How can this issue be resolved?  What information is available besides the "learn more" option that does not deal with the problem?
    Many people have the same problem. However, there is little or nothing readily available to users. This problem has existed for two or more years. Does anyone have anything to offer about this disturbing problem?

    Thanks for the suggestion kcell. I've tried both versions
    9.0.115 and 9.0.124 and both fail with the policy permission error.
    I also tried with and without your crossdomain.xml file but
    with the same result. It looks like this file is intended for URL
    policy, instead of socket policy. Recently Adobe separated the two.
    When I run with the files installed on my dev PC, it does
    work, which makes sense because the flash player isn't loaded from
    an unknown domain.
    I did get one step closer. If a crossdomain.xml in the server
    root exists and the socketpolicy file is loaded from the app folder
    then the first two warnings disappear. The logs now show:
    OK: Root-level SWF loaded:
    https://192.168.2.5/trunk/myapp.swf
    OK: Policy file accepted: https://192.168.2.5/crossdomain.xml
    OK: Policy file accepted:
    https://192.168.2.5/trunk/socketpolicy.xml
    Warning: Timeout on xmlsocket://192.168.2.5:843 (at 3
    seconds) while waiting for socket policy file. This should not
    cause any problems, but see
    http://www.adobe.com/go/strict_policy_files
    for an explanation.
    Warning: [strict] Ignoring policy file with incorrect syntax:
    xmlsocket://192.168.2.5:993
    Error: Request for resource at xmlsocket://192.168.2.5:993 by
    requestor from https://192.168.2.5/trunk/myapp.swf is denied due to
    lack of policy file permissions.
    Which basically says, everything is okay, but you stay out
    anyway.
    PS: I found the XML schema files here:
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/fplayer9_security_02.html
    and the socket policy schema:
    http://www.adobe.com/xml/schemas/PolicyFileSocket.xsd.
    UPDATE: When serving up the policy file on port 843 using the
    example perl script then the socket connection seems to be accepted
    and the connect succeeds. After that flex hangs trying to logon to
    the IMAP server.
