Mac OS X 10.0: Help Viewer - "The Specified HTML File Could Not Be Found"

Help Viewer does not display content if the Mac OS X hard disk name contains certain characters. These characters include the solidus ( / ) character and the trademark character ( TM ).
Symptom

The Mac OS X Help Viewer reports "The Specified HTML File Could not Be Found" when a Help topic is selected.


Solution

Remove any solidus ( / ) or trademark ( TM ) characters from the name of the Mac OS X hard disk or partition. You can substitute another character, such as a comma, ampersand, or underscore. If this issue occurs with any other alphanumeric character, particularly í, é, á, ú, ö, ü, or ö, try removing it as well.
