joomla 2.5 404 error only in single article menu item - joomla

I have a website that has several language versions.
One of them is in hebrew and there i have the following problem.
The main menu items work fine with category blog or single contact but show a "404 error" page if you click on a "single article" type of menu item.
I disabled the SEF and URL rewriting options in global configuration but it didn't help - the same error occurs again.
I have installed Hebrew language pack, also added Hebrew content language and enabled the language plug ins. Nothing helps. It is strange that it doesn't work neither with or without the SEF and URL rewriting options.
Can you help me solve this problem?
Here's the URL of the website: http://funtopiaworld.photonhost.com/kfarsaba/he/

Joomla / Gantry Multi language website error 404

I found a lot of resource on the web talking about issue like mine but nothing worked for me.
I build a joomla 3.4.1 website, installed a rocket theme template (momentum) based on Gantry.
I created 3 categories, 1 for each language. I created the pages. Both pages and categories are correctly set for the good language.
I left a main menu for all language, with a module, deactivated.
I created 3 menus (one for each language) with each time a home page (the flags appear in the menu)
I installed the multilanguage module it seems to be good.
Then I went to the template manager. Let a style for "all languages" and created copies for each language. For each language, I choose the good menu.
Is there anything wrong with what I did ?
I'm really welcoming any kind of help...
The URL is: www.bsports.be
(On safari, I've a too many redirect issue, not on chrome)
Settled thanks to:

Made some change to the .htaccess and it works fine now, hope this will help others

Joomla 1.7 - can't find Meta Titles

we moved a site for a client a while back that someone else created. Its running on Joomla 1.7.
We want to do some light SEO work for them but I can't for the life of me find the Meta/SEO title field anywhere.
All the support posts I've looked at say its here or there but for me its not. It seems to be know where! In the meta options section when editing an artcile there is a description and keyword field but no title.
Some help would be appreciated. This client can't justify a new website.
Thanks!
Update:
we ended up upgrading this install to 2.5, still couldn't edit the meta titles anywhere. So I installed a plugin which gave me the title field but it had no effect! Can only assume the theme hasn't been put together properly. The conclusion is that its now quicker for us to just move them to WordPress where stuff works properly! :)
I'm working more with Wordpress than Joomla, but I think that you should download an extension if you want to have a meta-title in the pages. For the home page you can change it from Menu - Main menu - Home.

Problems adding an article in Joomla

I got a problem I really cant solve. I am trying to create a menu with an single article in Joomla 2.5, but it wont show the article.
I have created a main menu with some menus which are set to single article, and I have created some articles, which I've added to the specific menu items, it has no problems saving the menu, but when I reload the page, there is no article/text/picture.
Does some one have any idea why this is happening?
Make sure article is published. Even if it won't work. Just on error reporting n see what exactly error is getting about & find the solution.
It seems like a SEF issue.
Say your menu is published under the SEF url /fun/jokes.html: if the SEF plugin is not enabled Joomla might be looking for your pictures in /fun/images/... instead of /images/...
Just head to the administrator / plugin, search for SEF (system - SEF plugin) and enable it.
Clear the cache and it should start working.
I have found the problem. Under my profil for the template, "System Output" whas set to "no". Changed it to "yes" and it shows all my article.
But thanks for your efforts

Articles not showing in joomla 2.5

I am trying to use joomla with the yoo catalyst theme. And i was trying to have an article on my page. But the problem is that article is not showing in my theme. But when i choose default theme it is showing the accurate results. Is there any setting that i am missing with this theme?
Please Help.
Think the answer if fairly simple. The link your provided:
http://www.2ademo.com/MedFit2.5/index.php?option=com_helloworld&view=helloworld
is to a dummy component, hence the "option=com_helloworld&view=helloworld" and not to an actual article. When I went on to the website, I clicked on the "Privacy Policy" link which directed me to the following page:
http://www.2ademo.com/MedFit2.5/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=56&Itemid=106
and the article is showing fine on here
#user1929236 This is not an actual problem, it was actually caused by template configuration.
Since you have set hidden content on homepage in the template config, the content in the url was also hidden (an url without itemid will use the same template profile with homepage).

Joomla index.php page is automatically redirected with "not found" error

I am trying to copy a joomla website to a sub domain of a website: http://sub.domain.com. Database and everything seems fine. When I access http://sub.domain.com, the website is automatically redirected to: http://sub.domain.com/en/index.php and the error is:
The page cannot be found
The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.
Please try the following:
Make sure that the Web site address displayed in the address bar of your browser is spelled and formatted correctly.
If you reached this page by clicking a link, contact the Web site administrator to alert them that the link is incorrectly formatted.
Click the Back button to try another link.
HTTP Error 404 - File or directory not found.
Internet Information Services (IIS)
Technical Information (for support personnel)
Go to Microsoft Product Support Services and perform a title search for the words HTTP and 404.
Open IIS Help, which is accessible in IIS Manager (inetmgr), and search for topics titled Web Site Setup, Common Administrative Tasks, and About Custom Error Messages.
Yes, I deploy the joomla site on an IIS server but I am sure it is running both for php as well as asp.net.
Any idea about this auto-redirection and how can I solve this?
For me the solution was to TURN OFF Search engine friendly URL's.
After installing Joomla it was turned on. I already tried the above options. no result.
When hovering my mouse over the second menubutton I did not see the the php code to that article in the left lower corner of my browser but just mywebsite/folder1/folder2/
and not something like : index.php?options=com and so on.....
So I tried to switch OFF the Search engine friendly URL's after I already had the articles, categories and menu's. And it worked.
After reading all your comments, I can give this suggestion:
Knowing that the previous server wasn't an IIS, and when you said it was in a Linux, probably it was an Apache server, then follow these steps:
Enter the administration area by going to http://sub.domain.com/administrator/
Select "Global Configuration", and select the "Site" tab;
Go to the right column and in the "Use URL rewriting" select "no".
If you don't have more than one language, you can do the following (in this example, the English language will be the default):
(in the administration area) Go to the menu "Extensions" and select "Language Manager", go to the "Installed - Site" tab;
Select (click in the checkbox) the english language and click "Default" (this assumes that there are more than one language in this screen).
Go to the menu "Extensions" and select "Plug-in Manager";
Select "System - Language Filter", and disable it.
