I read Sean Boisen's helpful blog post on creating hyperlinks (http://blog.logos.com/archives/2010/11/logos_4_information_has_an_address.html). However, I am unable to create a hyperlink in either PAGES or KEYNOTE.
Can anyone help?
Suggest submitting product feedback to Apple to add application URL to hyperlink lists:
Pages feedback => http://www.apple.com/feedback/pages.html
Keynote feedback => http://www.apple.com/feedback/keynote.html

It's a limitation of the Apple products. I tested this in Pages, when you create a link it (helpfully, but backfires in this case) asks what type of link it is web, email etc.
If you choose the only one that possibly could be used - web - Pages insists in putting in a prefix of 'http://' in front of the text you paste. Unfortunately the protocol 'http' is not what we want, we want the protocol 'logosres'. There is no way to override this annoying behaviour. What they need to do is either a) not (helpfully) put the http:// prefix in or b) have option of 'other' where they leave the link text exactly as entered.
So if you follow the links Smiling provided let Apple know they need to improve this.
BTW - in TextEdit (which comes with OS X) this issue does not occur, they don't mess with the link entered.
In responding to your instructions in another thread, I discovered that this works in Snow Leopard, but not in Leopard.
Another option on the Mac would be MacJournal. It's journaling software for the Mac and you can create hyperlinks in to Logos Resources. When you copy it as a URL you then paste or select the text you want to create a hyperlink with. You right (control) click the text and select link and then paste the URL you copied from Logos into the URL field.
MacJournal also works great for taking notes/journaling and is very easy to organize
Hope this helps[H]
