Re-Direct to Other Help Files

Greetings,
Our application has a static reference to one help file.
However some of our help material is dated, must be kept
around, but almost certainly won't change. I'd like to encapsulate
this static material into a help project, create a CHM file,
compile it one last time, check it, and leave it alone.
Other material is regularly updated. I'd like to compile this
material in to anothre CHM as often as is needed.
Is there a way to have something of a 'shell' help file (or
other mechanism) of the file name that the application expects to
be able to call, but effectively 'pipes through' help requests to
one of the other help files as needed?

For the static material I am talking about a compiled help
file (CHM) with around a hundred or so topics.
I want the application calls to help to 'pipe through' to
this CHM.
--- Basically I am trying to avoid having to have any
material in my help system that I know will not change, but want a
separate project with it around just in case something does some
how manage to change.
Again the challenge is that the application only "knows" of
one help file to call.

Error message when I try to open the "help" files.

When I try to open the help files in Elements Photoshop 10, I get the following error message in a pop up box. At the top, the box is labeled "Adobe AIR" The message: "Application descriptor could not be found for this application. Try re-installing or contacting the publisher for assistance."
I have completely uninstalled and reinstalled both my Elements programs as well as adobe air, and have updated everything that I can think of and a few more things, and still get the same message. Since I am one who often uses help files, I'd appreciate any help with this.
Thank you.

Mac Help file and OSX 10.4.5

HI all and Help if you can, please.
I was prompted by my power PC IMac G5 to upgrade the OS to 10.4.5 which I did by clicking on the link in the window. All seems fine except now I can't open any of my Mac Help topics in the Help window. The window opens as a blank. All the other Help files seem fine. I tried "Chat" with the IMac help team and after finally getting someone to come on line, he suggested I " delete the releated preference files for help", but never told me how to do that so I don't know if it will work or not. Can anyone out there give me an idea of how to get my Mac Help to work? Thanks to all.

The backups for your version are date-time stamped as the name and with an extension of .fcpproject. They look like this.
The original project is named CurrentVersion.fcpproject.
You need to replace the CurrentVersion with the backup file and rename it to be CurrentVersion.fcpproject.
With FCPX closed, I suggest you move the original to the Trash, but not empty it. Then promote your backup one level higher in the project folder hierarchy (to be at the same level that the original previously occupied. Then rename the backup.
Open up FCPX, which should now recognize your project.

Need Help: Could WEBI report directly based on EXCEL file be refreshed?

In 3.0, Could WEBI reports directly based on EXCEL file be refreshed, after exporting to BOE platform?
I've made a test on that and find out WEBI report could not be freshed in Infoview while DESKI report could.
Some colleague suggest me to build the WEBI report based on a Universe created based on the EXCEL file.
I want to confirm, is it a by-design that we could only refresh WEBI report based on universe? or I could do some setting to made the refreshment of WEBI based directly on EXCEL file works?
Please Help!! Thanks a lot~~~

Hi Rachel,
You could try the Rich Client Product Guide [http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir3/en/xi3_web_intelligence_rich_client_en.pdf] but I don't think it is a problem...more like a feature by design - it makes sense.
You could try the route of creating a universe on top of excel... See posts

Hope this helps

I bought an iTunes Royalty free song to play behind a presentation. What I have seem to have is video file not an audio file. Am I missing a step?I want to download iTunes purchases as a .wavfile of other audio file. Any help would be appreciated.

I bought an iTunes Royalty free song to play behind a presentation. What I have seem to have is video file not an audio file. Am I missing a step?I want to download iTunes purchases as a .wav file or other audio file. Any help would be appreciated

I understand the confusion. Those tracks are royalty free to the owner of the tracks, yes. The terms of use of the iTunes Store still state, though, that all purchases are for your own personal use and cannot be used commercially:
USAGE RULES
1. You shall be authorized to use iTunes Products only for personal, noncommercial use.
They're probably fine for presentations in a class or to a group at your company, but you probably could not post the presentation or a video using these tracks on a public site. I'm no lawyer, though, to legally define what would and would not constitute "noncommercial". It's probably best to just buy your tracks directly from one of these sites of royalty-free music. Then the use license should be completely clear.
Regards.

How do I remove on-line help files (other than English)

When I do a search within Files (OFO) that returns on-line help documents, I get a list of all the on-line help files for EVERY language. I'd like to eliminate the non-English language on-line help files so my users don't have to click every link to figure out which one is in English.
I have already created a TAR for this, but the person that responded suggested that I could just delete all of the non-English on-line help folders as the Files Admin. However, as Files Admin, I didn't have appropriate permissions to do so.

Try ordering your songs by date added. The ones you just added will be at the top (or the bottom) - then you've just got to find where the newly added list stops and the old tracks begin and select all the tracks from then onwards. Sorted.
Hope that helps.

Access keys: please direct me to info for my help file?

I set up my web pages with access keys for mouseless navigation. I have been given to believe that, on a Mac, one may hold Alt and press an access key to activate the desired function.
(E.g., accesskey="9" for the "Contact us" page is acquired by holding down Alt and then pressing 9).
This seems not to work in Safari 3 Public Beta for Windows, and I can't find a Help file for it, or a thread here. Does anyone have a hint to offer?

Actually, its not a coding error...
ALT+1 opens the first item in the Bookmarks Bar.
I already sent a Bug Report to Apple for them to provide us developers a way to override special keys (F1, F5, Ctrl+P, etc). Easy to do in IE but all the ways I've tried in Safari came up wrong.
Let's wait for the next beta... at least in 3.0.5 this problem remains.
Also, if anyone has a workaround, I would gladly appreciate it.

How do I generate a Word document and a PDF from Help files?

Hi,
I am new to RoboHelp HTML, and am using version 8. I updated some Help files, and now I want to generate output. Here are my questions/ or the process I used:
To compile the help, I clicked Generate Primary Layout. Is this correct? I noticed that the date stamp on the xpj file has not changed. The date is still from many months ago. (Why is that? Should it show a recent update date?) However, the files that I updated do reflect the dates when I made the updates. These include art files, an hhp, and htm, js, ldb, pss, cpd files.
To generate a pdf, I clicked Generate PDF. I was not able to generate the PDF at first, but then, I enabled macros in Word 2007 (Trust Center Settings > Enable all macros...and clicked the checkbox, Trust access to the VBA project object model), and clicked Generate PDF. At the end of the generation, I got this error in Word: Microsoft Office Word has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. The info you were working on might be lost. Word can try to recover it for you. I closed the dialog and Word generated several blank documents. Microsoft Office Diagnostics was run and found one problem and corrected it. Despite the error message, a pdf was generated. (If you could give me any insight on why I got the error messages, that could be helpful to know).
How do I generate a Word document?
Thank you!
Erin

Welcome to our community
Note that RoboHelp is capable of creating a variety of layouts. WebHelp, FlashHelp, AIR Help, Microsoft HTML Help, JavaHelp, Oracle Help, ePub and more.
Any of these layouts may be nominated as the Primary layout. So when you generate the Primary layout, you get whatever has been configured as the Primary layout.
Only certain actions will result in a change to the .XPJ file. The actions are indicative of major changes to the project. So I wouldn't fret the fact that the date time stamp wasn't updated.
Indeed the Printed Documentation Single Source Layout recipe is what you use to create PDF. Generally what happens is that RoboHelp creates a Microsoft Word document as an intermediate file type, then creates the PDF from that. As you might imagine, there are a host of things that can go wrong during the process. I might suggest that you first get a Word document to generate cleanly. Then once you do that, focus on PDF. I know that I typically gen a Word document and stop there. I just open Word and use Word to create the PDF.
If you look at the properties for the Printed Documentation Single Source Layout recipe (View > Pods > Single Source Layouts then right-click the Printed Documentation layout and choose Properties) you will see that PDF, Word or both are options at the top of the dialog.
Hopefully that gives you a nudge in the right direction.
My fellow Adobe Community Expert Peter Grainge has excellent info on Printed Documentation on his site at Grainge.org. Click the link below for that.

Hi,
There is no such PowerShell command can achiev this. Maybe you can use a script to get the user name with folder redirection enabled. However, I am not familiar with writing script, and it would be better for you to ask in script forum below for professional
