Cannot import web page and other problems

Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere (I have searched to no avail through the archives), but I am having difficulty importing web pages.

When using either Safari or Firefox, I cannot import some web pages (such as tinyurl.com/2386qe).

Sometimes it causes Scrivener to crash.

And it makes no difference which method I use to import the web page - dragging the url from Firefox or Safari, or using the import menu command. In fact, frequently the import web page menu command is not highlighted, so I cannot use it.

Iā€™m also frequently having to wait while Scrivener resynchronises its indexes. Maybe this is linked?

In short, Scrivener has gone from being an excellent easy-to-use application to a buggy pain-in-the-arse app.

Any help much appreciated!

Some web pages donā€™t validate properly, which has been fixed for the next update. This would just give a ā€œweb page canā€™t be importedā€ message.

The web page crashing issue is entirely separate, though. Can I take a wild guess that you are using 10.4.11 and that you only started noticing problems since updating to that?

Best,
Keith

Thanks Keith for replying so quickly.

Er yes, I am using 10.4.11 and although I canā€™t quite pinpoint when the trouble started, it has been fairly recent, so thereā€™s every likelihood itā€™s linked to the OS X update.

As for the Scrivener update, any idea when itā€™ll be available?

Fantastic software BTW, even if itā€™s not performing at its best right now.

Many thanks again.

Hi Keith (again),

This problem has now got a lot worse. I now cannot open the project file at all. It crashes Scrivener every time. Iā€™ve followed all the instructions given elsewhere on the forums (trash ui.xml file; change preferences to import html as text; reboot the machine etc) but still it crashes.

Any idea what I can do now just to be able to open the project file - never mind about importing web pages?

And would web page imports improve if I upgraded to Leopard?

Many thanks,
Rob

For what itā€™s worth, hereā€™s the error log:

Yes, things should improve on Leopard. Zip up the file and send it to me. It should open for me as Iā€™m running Leopard, and I should be able to put it into a state where it will open again - support AT literatureandlatte DOT com.
Best,
Keith

P.S. I am still looking into whether there is anything I can do my end about this horrible bug.

Thanks very much, Keith, but Iā€™m even having difficulties zipping/archiving the Scrivener file to send it to you. Iā€™m getting: ā€˜the operation cannot be completed because you do not have enough privileges for ā€œ1483.mp3ā€.ā€™

Iā€™ve not a clue of what 1483.mp3 might be.

I could send you the entire Scivener project file, but itā€™s more than 110MB in size.

Any ideas?

Hi,

1483.mp3 will be an MP3 file that you have imported into the projectā€¦

Try the following:

  1. Delete your preferences file (~/Library/Preferences/com.literatureandlatte.scrivener.plist) - you will need to re-enter your licence details afterwards.

  2. Try deleting ui.xml.

  3. In the project package, sort by date in the Finder, and delete the most recently added .webarchive files (make sure you backup your project before doing this, though).

Let me know if any of the above helps.

All the best,
Keith
