Skype 7.9 for Mac – Web Link Preview Gets Smarter

Today we are pleased to release Skype 7.9 for Mac, which provides an updated and smarter web link preview experience. Now when you share a link and want to add some words for additional context, you can simply send everything in one message. If an image related to the link was found, a rich visual preview of the web page will be automatically displayed, so your contacts can see a preview of the shared web page with the message.
In addition, we’ve also fixed several issues. The bigger ones include:

  • Opening Safari for Mac Web Archives in Safari for Windows???

    I need to open Safari for Mac Web Archives (saved html web pages on a Mac) on my Windows PC at work. Does anyone know how I can accomplish this? The original Web Pages are no longer available and the data in the Archives is the only set left.
    I've tried opening the files with Safari for Windows but that doesn't work. I've also tried renaming the web archives from file.webarchive to file.html and that doesn't work either.
    Does anyone out there have any suggestions for accomplishing this task??? Thanks in advance for your help!
    YV

    If you can move your archives to a Mac I think you can convert them to folders with Webarchive Folderizer and then move back to your pc:

  • I'm running Adobe 9 pro on snow leopard and when I save or print from word for mac 14 the bottom gets cuts off

    I'm running Adobe 9 pro on snow leopard and when I save or print from word for mac 14 the bottom gets cuts off. Can someone help?

    Ah! You're creating a PDF out of Word through Acrobat. The cutoff is most likely being affected by the printer chosen.
    When you call up the print dialogue in Word, check to see what printer is being used. If it's a typical inkjet printer, Acrobat is using the print margins of that printer as the cutoff area. Since most such printers can't print to the last inch and half or so of the paper, that's where it would be cut off.
    Near the bottom, under the preview of the document, click on the Page Setup button. It doesn't really matter which printer you select here. Under Paper Size, choose Manage Custom Sizes. Under the Non-Printable Area heading, choose the same printer and set the paper size you're using.
    Note that the unprintable margins for that printer will be filled in automatically. That's what's being cut off. Click the + button to create a modified version. The default will be "Untitled". Give it a new name if you want. Then set all of the margins to zero. Click OK. Now you'll have that as a choice under Paper Size. Doesn't matter that the actual printer can't use this setting since you're going to a PDF. Click OK to get back to the main Word print dialogue.
    Now choose Save as Adobe PDF. It should give you an exact duplicate of what's on screen in Word since as far as Acrobat is concerned, your "printer" has no unprintable margins.

  • How to delete contacts in skype 7.5 for Mac?

    I cannot delete contact on skype for MAC. There are several posts marking this as resolved suggesting the following, none of which works:
    going to the "All" contact lists and pressing backspace:  absolutelty nothing happens;
    right-clicking the contact: there is no option to delete a contact, only to block;
    highlighting the contact and going to the Contacts menu item at the top of the screen: the delete contact option is there, but it is unaccessible (in light grey);
    So, how can I delete a contact?

    Regarding Mac contacts: that option is not possible on my skype. It is there, but in light grey, and it is not ticked (and I cannot tick it even if I want to). >> You say you haven't linked Facebook and Skype. Can you tell us if there is a "Facebook" item in the contact group list? In the sidebar choose "Contacts," then look at the bar below the toolbar and to the left of "Add Contact." There is no "Facebook" item in the contact group list. >> Have you tried deleting a contact using a different platform's Skype client? iOS or Android or Windows, for example? I do not have a Windows machine. In iOS for iPad I only had the "Block" option, no delete. I do not have it installed in Android, and do not want to do it. Best,

  • Changing the icon for saved Web links.

    Im trying out different forum topics to see if anyone can help and I thought this would be a cool thing to do and might be doable with an applescript.
    I save a lot of web address as files to go back to later and I find the default @ icon for firefox or the blank icon for safari pretty appalling. I was wondering if there was a way to change the icon so that when ever I save a new link file it would use the new icon. I was thinking about just an icon that has the Firefox, safari, chrome logo would be good or even better a little picture preview of the web page its self. Any help on this little idea I have is very appreciated
    I really like the idea of a page preview for weblink files. Like this ( http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a238/Nuclearanthrax/Screenshot2010-09-02at1021 41PM.png )
    I completely understand a straight up no answer to this. I have no idea how applescript works. I have used it very few times.

    Pierre,
    I tried this AppleScript but it was not working. Is there something that I need to check.
    I had a few web link files in a folder and the script RAN the INFO window popped up but nothing changed.
    This would be a valuable tool for me an my students,
    Thanks in advance

  • When I convert a file (Word for Mac) my links are no longer clickable.

    I created a document in Word for Mac that included several hyperlinks. When I convert the file using Acrobat to a PDF, the links are still colored and underlined but no longer can I click through on them. How do I maintain the click through ability in the PDF form?

    I am using Adobe Acrobat XI from the Creative Cloud. On a Mac. Apparently keeping links clickable from Word/Mac to Adobe Acrobat is a known issue).
    See this forum thread I later found after posting this question: Losing links when saving Word 2011 Mac to Acrobat Pro X 10.1.3
    I was successful in exporting to Pages then creating a PDF, however, I had to spend time adjusting quite a bit of formatting, which was less than ideal. And some formatting (like quote boxes) changed in Pages and I cannot get the Word version of the Quote Box. So again, not idea There are some other fixes mentioned in the link above that I am going to try.

  • DivX "for Mac" and Safari -- anyone get it to work on Snow Leopard?

    Pardon me for the length of this post --  it's just a very involved question to which DivX has no answers, and I've literally wasted this entire week trying to get the so-called DivX "Bundle for Mac" to work, with absolutely no joy.
    27" iMac Core 2 Duo 3.06 GHz, 12 GB RAM, OS X 10.6.7
    Safari (v. 5.0.5 [6533.21.1])
    Safari Extensions:
    DivX HiQ 2.1.1.94
    DivX Plus Web Player HTML5 <video> 2.1.1.94
    As anyone who has used YouTube in the past year or however long this option has been available, many videos, under the regular YouTube control bar at the bottom of the video window, have an additional option: DivX HiQ, with a blue "play" button with black arrow, and in white text on black, the message "Press play for higher quality video." EVERY SINGLE time, until yesterday (about which more anon) I've selected DivX HiQ, the YouTube screen turns into the gray DivX Plus player window for a few seconds, sometimes I get a brief "Buffering…" message (sometimes not)* (see below), then a window pops up telling me "DivX Plus Web Player could not download the video, please check your internet connection." (screen shots on request).
    I have DL'd AND installed -- several times over the past few days -- DivX for Mac, version 7.3 (right up-to-date as of 11-30-10 -- great support for the Mac OS), with little or no success or noticeable results. Finally, yesterday, it somehow (I thought) installed correctly: at least instead of nothing whatsoever happening after the install, this time I was whisked magically away to <<http://www.divx.com/en/software/download/installed/mac?os=mac>> where I was rather breathlessly informed "Congratulations! You can now enjoy the highest quality digital video | divx.com." Well, this was something new -- this was the first time I'd ever gotten this far. Then I was shown many movies, promising new marvels:
    The first movie informed me "You have successfully installed DivX software." This WAS something new. Then it told me about the "DivX Plus Web Player… Now Featuring: DivX HiQ… Boost web video quality and performance… … Look for the DivX HiQ Button on your favorite video sites… see better quality and performance with a simple click… Try it out on your favorite sites… YouTube. Vimeo. And more.
    Then I played the NEXT movie, all about the DivX Plus Player, and here I TRULY saw something I'd never seen before: *a DivX Plus Player window, that actually said " Connecting… Buffering: … " and then -- mirabile dictu! -- an actual video began to play, and actually continued to play, with no stops, fits, or error windows, right up until the end. This WAS something new under the sun. It continued, extolling the manifold virtues of "DivX to go," which was of no use to me. The next video was about the DivX Plus Codec Pack, and the video told me about the wonderful things DivX could do in Windows 7, if I was brain-dead enough to USE Windows 7. Useless info, but that video, too, opened up the way I believe the *HiQ videos are supposed to open up in YouTube, for example: "Connecting… Buffering: …," and then actually opening and playing. BTW, I hate to sound like a troglodytic Luddite, but I have no idea what "MKV" video is.
    The final video, which ALSO opened up the way I believe the *HiQ videos are supposed to open up in YouTube, for example: "Connecting… Buffering: …," spoke to me about the manifold joys of DivX Plus converter, which ALSO requires the DivX Player application, and since the DivX Player application (v.7.2 (build 10_0_0_184, Copyright © 2006-2009 DivX, Inc.), which, I was given to understand, was actually a PART of the DivX software I had finally "successfully installed" (according to divx.com's delirious greeting), has never worked, none of what all these videos talked about was going to do me much good. HOW has it never worked, you ask? It has never worked in this way: I click on the DivX Player app icon, the DivX Player window opens, and the Mac OS beach ball spins merrily away, and spins, and spins, and spins -- at this point, I usually go to the kitchen for another cup of the strengthening coffee and the hopefully headache-reducing ibuprofen. When I come back, the beach ball is still spinning, so, resignedly, I go to the "Force Quit" command, where, invariably, I see the message "DivX Player not responding," and, resignedly, I force quit it. Again. This scenario has occurred without variation every single time I've tried to open the DivX Player application. It has never actually opened correctly, it has always shown up in the "Force Quit" window with the comment "DivX Player not responding," and I have always had to Force Quit it.
    Now Here's what may be termed the icing on the cake: fairly well buried in the "DivX for Mac" install package is a pdf "read me." Among many other fables is THIS whopper:
    "For online video tutorials visit the following URL in your web browser: http://go.divx.com/mac/tutorials"
    I did just that, and though the link works, there IS no page on the DivX site for "Mac tutorials." When you click on the link, you get redirected to "http://support.divx.com/faq/view/supportFAQen100/video_tutorials_main." Except for a video tutorial under "DivX Converter_ -- for which I have no use -- entitled "How To Edit Your DivX Converter for Mac Output Settings," and these two: "How To Export To DivX In Final Cut Pro for Mac," and "How To Export To DivX Using QuickTime On A Mac" -- neither of which do me the slightest bit of good, since A) I don't use, nor can I afford, Final Cut Pro, and B) what good would it to to export ANYTHING to DivX when the DivX Player for Mac does not, and has never, done anything but hang until Force Quitted?
    A brief digression on that very subject of "hanging:" there's a little section in the obscure "DivX for Mac" pdf that reads:
    "5. Known issues
    Network connection is lost during download
    A lost network connection in the middle of a download may hang the DivX Player For Mac. If this occurs, you may 'Force Quit' the DivX Player For Mac by simultaneously clicking command-option-escape and selecting the application from the list or by right-clicking the icon in the dock and selecting 'Force Quit.' You may then resume the download by re-launching the DivX Player, selecting 'Download Manager” from the File menu and clicking 'Resume.'"
    Wonderful advice, if I could ever get to the point where I was actually downloading something, but since MY particular edition of DivX Player for Mac saves me all that bother by hanging immediately upon launch, DivX has very kindly saved me the trouble of having to go through all that "Force Quit" - "Resume" nonsense. Of course, I never get to download anything or use the DivX Player on YouTube or anywhere else, so that's a bit of a downside.
    So back to the putative "Mac tutorials" on the non-existent "http://go.divx.com/mac/tutorials" page: other than the three totally non-germane examples I cited above, there is nothing that I can find on the re-direct page (http://support.divx.com/faq/view/supportFAQen100/video_tutorials_main) that is the least concerned with the usage or behavior of any component of DivX on a Macintosh computer. That's certainly not uncommon, but for a company that purports to sell products that actually work on the Mac OS X platform, EVERYTHING about the DivX site is so totally Windows-centric, one would be inclined to believe that DivX is not even aware the Mac OS X platform exists. For example, here's the list of tutorials under "DivX 101 - Learn How" on the page that, according to the DivX for Mac Read Me, was supposed to solve all my problems with running DivX on a Mac:
    Featured Video Tutorials
    How to register your PS3 for DivX VOD playback
    How do I make DivX player my default video player?
    How to register your DivX Certified device with the DivX Plus Player
    How to stream DivX Plus HD (MKV) files to your Xbox 360
    How to use the DivX Plus Converter
    Featured Text Guides
    DivX Plus Converter for Windows User Guide
    DivX Plus Player for Windows User Guide
    DivX Codec 5.x User Guide
    DivX Codec 6 and Virtual Dub Guide
    It's wonderful that DivX has tutorials dealing with XBox360 and PS3, but the Mac seems to have been lost in the shuffle -- I think, from an aesthetic point, the guy in the sideways hat and the emphasis on animé and "blow 'em up" games in what few tutorials are actually there pretty much sums up DivX's idea of their market focus. Maybe they're right, but if this "free" version, that so far I have not been able to get to work as advertised on my 27" iMac, is supposed to entice any Mac user into forking over even the piddling $20.00 for the "Pro" version, the "free" version isn't DivX any "gotta have it" favors.
    Now for the final mystery: I have two Safari -- v5.0.5 (6533.21.1) -- extensions from DivX:
    1. DivX HiQ 2.1.1.94, which is supposed to allow you to watch videos on YouTube, Vimeo, etc. in the DivX Player for Mac, but refuses to work when enabled: EVERY SINGLE time I've selected DivX HiQ, the YouTube screen turns into the gray DivX player window for a few seconds, then an error window pops up that says "DivX Plus Web Player could not download the video, please check your internet connection."
    2. DivX Plus Web Player HTML5 <video> 2.1.1.94, the little blurb in the Safari Extensions window for which says "Increase performance and video formats for your HTML5 <video>
    Clicking on the "by DivX, Inc." link in the Safari Extensions window of either of these extensions takes me to http://www.divx.com/en/software/divx-plus/web-player
    "High-quality video shouldn’t stop at your browser. DivX Plus® Web Player gives you the best web video performance around, even on sites using Flash®. The latest feature, DivX HiQ™ beta, lets you replace the default Flash player on popular sites for improved performance. Of course you can still watch stunning DivX® and DivX Plus HD (MKV) videos right in your browser, and even enjoy MKV features like multiple audio tracks, subtitles and 5.1 channel AAC audio."
    That's all well and good, but, not when it doesn't work. I don't know what the story is with these Safari Extensions: a manual (unfortunately the only way you can do it), category by category search of Apple's "Safari Extensions Gallery" turns up NO information about these extensions, neither does -- as far as I can tell -- a search of the DivX site. Am I supposed to use BOTH extensions? Neither? One or the other? Which? So far, if I use them, I get the HiQ option in YouTube (and elsewhere), but when I click on it, I get the error message above, and the window reverts to the usual plain old YouTube window. If I disable the DivX Safari extensions, I don't even get the HiQ option.
    Has ANYONE gotten the DivX for Mac Bundle v7.1, or even the DivX Plus Web Player for Mac, v2.1.1, to actually work on a Mac running OS X 10.6.7?
    If so, PLEASE tell me how you got it to work.
    I'd gladly for over the 20 bucks for this product if it actually worked, but not until it does.

    Well, I can start banging my head against the brick wall again.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your answer. After some more experimenting, i finally got it to work ... However, not every embedded DivX movie will play.
    I just deleted another codec in the Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime folder. (One of the codecs mentioned on http://perian.org/#support was still in the folder). Before I had only deleted the files whose name has "DivX" in it.
    I did NOT install the DivX Web Player plugin.
    Now some DivX videos play, some don't... So maybe I should re-install the DivX Web Plugin? But the Web Plugin never worked for me ... If I re-install it, won't I go back to where I started?

    It could be that your previous DivX player was out of date.
    As Perian says, you need both.
    First, I certainly wish you (or my search of Apple Discussions, which, inexplicably, did not turn up this discussion) had referred me to this discussion before -- it would have saved a LOT of time.
    Now, to your reply to Philippe Pauwels:  "As Perian says, you need both." Both WHAT, exactly?
    From the initial release of Perian 0.5, September 29, 2006, to the latest release, Perian 1.2.2 - Tuesday, April 13, 2011, there is not a single mention of DivX in the entire 2006 to 2011 version history. The only information on the Perian support page regarding DivX is the paragraph that states, in part, "Please consider removing obsolete QuickTime Components: ...DivX, DivX Decoder..."
    Can you please tell me what you mean by "Perian says, you need both," in regard to putative DivX Extensions, Plug-Ins, Components, whatever?
    Finally, on July 12, 2009, you posted, in a reply to martin Alper, a list of  "the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear/play pretty much everything that the net can throw at you." Taking into consideration that it's 2 years later and most versions have newer updates -- including Mac OS X itself -- some items are no longer among us, and some NEW ones have shown up. could you please update or comment on this list, for the benefit of all sufferers?
    Thank you very much,
    Bart Brown
    Your list as of July 12, 2009, taking into consideration your wise caveat that "nothing in life carries a guarantee!:
    The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but
    It is known to work in the great majority of cases with Safari 3 and 4, QT 7.4.x, 7.5.x and 7.6 and OS 10.4.11 and 10.5.7.
    Download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
    RealPlayer 11.1 for Mac from:
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/15540
    Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/overview.htm (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
    Perian from http://perian.org/
    You should read this support page http://perian.org/#support in case you need to delete older codecs.
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlas h
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
    It is suggested that you first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    You should also ensure that you have downloaded and installed the correct version for your Mac of Security Update 2009-001 (and for Tiger only, 2009-002). (N.B. Security Updates require both a restart and a permission repair.)
    In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them). However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from http://www.divx.com/divx/mac/
    Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them) to enable Java.
    Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz, and that you have selected 'Built in Audio'.
    Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
    You should also consider having the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.
    There is an additional 'fix' you could try if you are having problems with Flash and Quicktime, depending on which type of Mac you have:
    On Intel Macs, make sure that you are not running Safari in Rosetta. You can check this, and change it, in the Get Info window.
    On PPC Macs, go to the Hard Disk/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, and drag the file 'QuickTime Plugin.webplugin' to the desktop. Quit and restart Safari. If things have improved you can trash that file. If they haven't put it back, as the lack of this plug-in can cause QT content in some widgets to cease functioning.
    And there is an additional kid on the block: SilverLight. Microsoft has created their own version of what a replacement for Flash could be. You can read more about it here:
    http://silverlight.net/
    So, if you go to any sites that have been designed for this new Silverlight stuff, you can download the plug-in from here (but make certain that you are downloading SilverLight v.1.0 for OS X (10.4.8 upwards) if you are using a PPC Mac. Version 2 only works with Intel Macs:
    http://silverlight.net/GetStarted/
    Recommendation: Close all applications before installing any of the above, repair permissions, reboot, and repair permissions again.
    Thanks again

    I downloaded and installed CS6 for Mac over the weekend. There is no shake reduction in the filters menu, under the shapen filters. I looked in several places for it and can not find it. I updated the software also and it still does not show. Does any one know why this filter is not in CS6 for Mac? How do I get it?

    These fetaures are only available in Photoshop CC (aka CS7), which will only become available beginning on June 17.

  • Safari for Mac: Relative links don't work

    I posted this last week, but didn't get any helpful replies:
    Our web site has many PDFs and aspx files that link to each other. In a PDF, when we click on a relative link, the following message appears: Safari can't open "filename.pdf" because the first character of its address is not valid.
    When we loook in the error console for the page with the link, the warning says "Resource interpreted as Document but transferred with MIME type application/pdf."
    Our workaround has been to set up Safari to use Adobe Reader to open the PDFs, and everything worked just fine. With Safari 5.1, that is not possible, so we now need to figure out what the problem is. Thanks for any help you can offer.
    Our new workaround is to tell people not to upgrade to Safari 5.1.

    Apple Safari 5.1 and Adobe Reader/Acrobat Advisory
    Check with Adobe. Perhaps they can offer a solution. I responded to your post before.
    Just in case, have you tried a different browser?

  • I just want my tabs to load for the web link they were originally set for. Instead I am getting the last page visited or the tab has been logged out.

    ''locking as a duplicate of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/981122''
    I have "Show My Home Page" for the Startup option
    I have LastPass set to AutoLogin
    I have the cookies for the tab sites in the Cookies Exceptions list
    Despite all of this, the tabs are "logged out" when I restart Firefox, and sites that have no logins are not opened based on the web address the tab was originally set for.

    Type '''about:config''' in the URL and filter
    *'''browser.stratup.homepage''' and change the value as the website you need to load.
    or
    Firefox Menu > Tools > options
    *General > Startup > When firefox starts " Show my Home Page"
    **Home Page "www.google.com"
    Firefox Menu > Tools > options > Privacy > History
    *Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history":
    *Select: [x] Accept Cookies from sites
    **Accept third party cookies: "From Visited"
    *Keep until "They Expire"
    *Deselect: [ ] "Clear history when Firefox closes"

  • I am sick of yahoo pages appearing when i even click a web link to get to another page on that site. this is rubbish. i am going to ditch you firefox .

    how can i stop these stupid yahoo pages interrupting my browsing i am in NZ and fed up with this.

    On Mac, the most common reason to get this is Spigot or Conduit add-ons. You can check for those on the Add-ons page, either:
    * Command+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click '''Extensions'''. Then, if in doubt, disable (or Remove, if possible) unrecognized and unwanted extensions.
    Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    Any improvement?
    Note that such add-ons may have been part of a bundle with something else and may be re-injected into Firefox if the bundle installer is not removed from your system.
