Nursedad Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Greetings! Wanted to see if someone could point me to the directory (V10) where I should move the help folder that I downloaded so that I can have access to this information locally vs. having to access the help online? Appreciate your assistance in advance! - - Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael J. Bolesta Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Jeff The help files are already on your drive. It is within the Accordance.app package in your applications folder. So unless you have Accordance on a network drive it is already local. The help is there whether or not you have internet access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, the help content (the interface does) will not load when I select help from within Accordance. Wondering if something went awry with my install?

Michael J. Bolesta Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Jeff Perhaps I did not understand your original question. What I was referring to is the set of help pages that will open in your default web browser. So within Accordance I went to "Help" in the line at the top of the monitor (just to the right of "Window" and clicked it. The first item is "Search" with a flashing cursor awaiting input. The second item is "Accordance help" Clicking this opens the browser, and the address is local: file:///Applications/Accordance.app/Contents/Resources/Accordance%20Help/Default.htm I turned off WiFi and I could still navigate help since it was in the package called Accorance.app in the Applications folder. Did you do a standard install on your computer? Are you the administrator? You may need the assistance of the technical folks at Accordance.

Helen Brown Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 There were some reports a couple of months ago where certain browsers on certain systems failed to load the local help files. Please report on the specifics of your system and browser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Simpson Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Hi Jeff, Helen's right. Be good to know the specifics. Also, can you test it with a different browser? (say on Chrome - just copy and paste the url) and (at least briefly) turn on Javascript AND Java and try again - though I don't need Java to make Help work, I remember that someone did. Probably not a long term good solution due to security issues, but give it a try for the help and post your results. You can then turn Java off. It's safe to leave Javascript on. They are found in Safari/Preferences in the Security tab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting. I have not disabled local file restrictions, but have not had any issues accessing the local help files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
