File extension missing for new blog entry pages

I have a blog and have created new entries, but I can't publish "because the file does not have a file extension." (I clicked on the publish button and also tried in the menu "Publish to Mac.com." Neither works.
I thought whatever was necessary to connect a new entry to my blog was created automatically. I'm not even sure what a file extension is. What is it?
In the Site Inspector I can do nothing. All possible commands are grayed out. Maybe I'm not supposed to make a hyperlink for a file.
Thanks for any help you can give. Edify

Will I have to clear the cache every time I want to upload new material?
you don't have to clear the cache to upload the material, you sometimes have to clear the browser's cache to see your new page, for the old page in the cache may prevent your browser from displaying the new page properly.
BTW, the same is true for any visitor to your site - if you change your page frequently and find that you have to empty the cache, then any visitor to your site also will experience the same problem and should know that he/she should empty the cache if the page looks funny.

Try reindexing the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.
Reindex messages.
If that doesn't work try deleting MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3.
Quit the application.
You need to look in your user Library. Either hold down the option key while using the Finder “Go To Folder” command and select your user Library in your home folder or use the Finder “Go To Folder” command and enter ~/Library/Mail/V2/Mail Data/MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3. Move the file to your desktop.
Open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the file from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return thefile to where you got it from, overwriting the newer ones.
If you prefer to make your User library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
Show User Library
You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after I installed 10.8.5. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

New blog entries experience "error updating .Mac", and no "add comments"

Blog always worked fine. Now new blog entries get error updating .Mac message. New post does appear online, but there is no Add Comments option, despite it being selected in the inspector. Also, the blog main page doesn't show a title in the title bar at top. Might this have something to do with the new Mobile Me features (which I haven't tried or signed up for). When I delete the new posting and publish, it publishes fine. This error even happens with the template pg, so it's not anything to do with my formatting. Thanks for your help.

I have not tried publishing a new Blog entry since the new "me" thing, but I did try just a text edit on an existing Entry and republished the Entry. It seemed to function normally.
However, all of my Comments are missing from all my Blog entries - although the hit counts are still there.
And my Slide Shows won;t work and thumbnails won't enlarge on my photo pages.
Everything was working perfectly before this big "improvement" we just got.
I sure hope this is temporary or I just might throw a fit. There was a lot of valuable stuff in those comments, and if there won;t be a Comments function at all, I won't be able to keep my blog at mac. com or me whatever.
Why fix what isn't broken?

Blog entry page won't publish from iWeb and MobilMe....

For some reason my blog entry page wont publish on my website. The rest of the site does, including my blog and archive, but not the new page. I do see the new page on the blog page, but when you click on it the new page has no text or pictures. When I published (uploaded) everything went as usual, I just can't see that page published. Any ideas?

Have you tried the File->Publish All to Mobileme menu option? That often will jump start a belligerent page.

Help, my new Blog entries, since iLife '08 upgrade, don't show ANY text!

Ever since upgrading to iLife '08, my new Blog entries do not show any of the text once it is uploaded to the server. In fact, all of my recent Blog entries now have all thier text gone when viewed online. Only Blog pages in "Archives" are still normal. What gives?! They all look good in iWeb, but not live. Thanks for your help. Wayne

Hi Cedric. I went ahead and took down all recent changes to my site, and then just re-uploaded my last good set-up from iLife 2006. I think iLife 2008 changes how blog pages are addressed. As an example, my two most recent good entries show on the web as:
http://waynelhenderson.com/Blog/693901ED-99E6-42D3-8AA9-7F8338989B47.html
http://waynelhenderson.com/Blog/629035FF-E021-4B9D-AFE5-D091583E0676.html
Notice the long string of numbers, letters, and dashes, after the word /Blog/? My iWeb in iLife 2008 no longer puts those types of strings at the end of /Blog/. Instead, the Blog web entries show as:
http://waynelhenderson.com/Blog/Entries/2007/10/26Tuning_In_With_Wayne_Henderson_podcast_39_%26_40%2C_by_Wayne_Henderson_Voice-ove rs(206)984-1446iPhone_GreenpeacePackers!.html (before I took it down because it wasn't working right).
Could the fact that instead of the string of number, letters, and dashes after /Blog/, my iLife '08 uses "/Blog/Entries/2007/10/26_Tu....etc" have anything to do with my problem of text not showing?
I've always used the same fonts, sizes, and colors. But now it's not working. What is weird, however, is that if I did Select All, and Copy and Paste the web page contents onto Notepad...the text IS THERE...just not showing on the web.
Argh!

I want to insert a picture into a body of text in a blog entry page.

This has me stumped. I did it once but cannot do it again.
How can I place a picture into a body of text? I have a print-out from the HELP menu but it is not clear. It talks of inline and fixed objects. I think I want a fixed object -- one that does not move along with the text as the text grows/moves along the page incrementally.
Because I am working with the photo on a blog entry page I cannot do the Choose Insert > Choose > Select the file, and click insert. I cannot because (1) The picture has to stay on the page in that Magic Frame, and (2) the choosing capability of the iWeb program does not enable someone to go inside the iWeb program and land on a certain page.
I am working on the blog page. Instead of a tiny little picture of a doll at the top of the page, I want to raise all of the text and put the little doll's head inside the text body.
I am so stumped. The instructions are not clear at all.

Well i did exactly what your trying to do...go to
http://www.mac-switch.com
and view the blog "power button shortcut"
Go to the section you want to add the photo
to...Click "insert" then "choose" and choose the file
you want to put in there.
Good luck
Rob.
Hi Rob......
You know, I went to that Power Button Shortcut blog and for the life of me, your point went flying over my brains -- I just did not get what point you were making to me. The Power Button thing was not what I was trying to do. I was trying to put a PICTURE of a doll's head inside a body of text. That means I had to get text wrap to kick in, and..........
But the bottomest line is, I finally did it. I don't know how I did it because I was in a state of just clicking around, trying to move text. It's a long story to duplicate, but I went through several steps and since it was just desperation moves I was doing, I don't have a set of notes to go by for the next time.
The hard part, or one of them, was to get the Text Inspector to make he Text Wrap workable. For a long time , no matter what I did, the Text Wrap option remained greyed out. It was maddening. Then for reasons that I cannot recreate in an orderly fashion, I got the Text Wrap option to get bolded out, and thus an option.
Thank you for trying. BTW, I think your pages look wonderful and very slick (which I think is the right look for what you want to do with your website).

Help! New Blog Summary Page titles are publishing in red!

Hi. All of a sudden, for no apparent reason, my new Blog titles, and the "Read more..." link on the cover/summary page, are publishing in red rather than black to the folder. The older ones still publish in black. It's doing it on two separate Blog pages. Does anyone know how to fix this? Please

Hi, thanks for your reply. I don't see anything signifying a default color in the hyperlink section of the inspector. The titles have always shown as black on the blog entry page in iweb, and in the blog summary page the titles and "Read more..." have always shown as red, with the rest of the text in the entry being black. And then all the text has always gone to black after publishing until now. As an experiment I changed the color of one of the titles to green, and it still published in red.

Customizing blog entries page

Instead of having my blog entries page just appear as a headline and summary of my blog entries, I'd like to have this page serve as my main page, so that all entries can be seen in their entirety, along with photos and design from the entries page.
In other words, less clicking around to "read more". I want the blog page to have everything so it's scrollable. Is there a way to do this?

Exactely!!!
But How?!!!

In Internet Explorer, in the internet options, you can change the temporary internet files to check for newer versions of stored pages. Can this be done in Firefox? And How?

I just want to know how I can change the settings to check for newer versions of stored pages in Firefox.

There is a hidden preference that controls when Firefox checks for a newer version. # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.cache.check_doc_frequency''', double-click on it to change its value
For details on the possible values of his preference see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.cache.check_doc_frequency

Image from blog entry page not showing up on 'home' page of blog

My first blog entry went well. I created a blog first page, then created an entry, and dragged a picture to that entry. I saved, published, and all looked great. Even the comment area worked. But when I created a second entry page, and dragge a picture to it, and saved, the photo is not showing up on that first page of the blog, the one that reads like a list only with a picture and teaser part of the entry...See http://web.me.com/brendatharp1/brendatharpblog/OnTheRoad/OnTheRoad.html
The entry listing is there on the first page, and when you click on the title link, it takes you to the entry page and the photos are there. I noticed that on the first page, the Sept 13th entry with photo is inside a text box of sorts - this was the layered paper template I used and then modified. Dbl-clicking to make that box interactive shows the black floating box for dealing with the placement of the photo in that list; but that box only relates to that one photo from the 13th. If I drag and drop the 15th's photo there, it just sits over the text and doesn't interact. AND I didn't have to do that with the first entry. Any ideas out there? Thanks much, Brenda.

Does this thread help http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1711038&tstart=15
I have experienced this and it was because I removed the placeholder and just added the image on the entry page. I duplicate blog entries and delete content to add new stuff so don't have to reformat every time, if you do that don't remove the image just add on the top - it should replace the previous image. Hope this helps, it is frustrating at times but the more you learn the easier it becomes.

Pdf file extension missing on export

That's it really - the pdf file extension is always missing when I export from Pages 09 to PDF. This causes Windows users problems especially when attached to emails. Any way to force Pages to add the extension?

I repeat:
I uses MacOS X since 10.3.
I use iWork since the delivery of iWork '08 then iWork '09.
I never got a document created by a 'modern' application without the extension name appended.
So I continue to think that if an extension is missing it's because the user made something wrong.
Maybe installing a third party component fooling the OS.
They are a lot of such "enhancers" which introduce oddities in the system behavior but I can't guess what is installed on your machine.
Just an example.
I tested on three macIntel machines running 10.5.6 or 10.5.7.
The menu items Format > Font Bold and Italic are always disabled when TextEdit is using "Plain Text" format.
On the machine of a correspondant, the items are enabled in such setting.
I'm quite sure that there is a beast changing the application's behavior but I can't guess which it is.
Back to the Finder setting.
It's not designed to Hide all extensions names.
It it designed to Show all of them or don't show all (which means that some may continue to be displayed).
As far as I know, the behavior is this one:
if a document is save when the Finder is set to "Always display the extensions", unchecking the box will not hide the extension.
if a document is saved when the Finder is NOT set to "Always display the extensions", checking the box will display the extension, unchecking it will hide the extension.
If you use the Finder with the box checked, the extensions of the files created on your machine will always be displayed.

New blog entries

When setting up a new entry for a blog in iweb, is there anyway to not have the usual template pictures, graphics and text show up each time? I don't want to spend time tweaking it each time. I've looked throught the iweb help and can't find anything......

In iweb, open the blog you want to update; click on "Entries", right click on a previously edited entry and choose the "duplicate" option. It will duplicate the edited entry without the custom template images or text.
imac G5 24" Mac OS X (10.4.8) 2.16 GHz intel Core 2 Duo, 2gb RAM, 250gb HD

When I try to open a saved image with the "htm" file extension all I get is a page of gibberish text.

I have the new Snow Leopard system on my iMac. I saved several images from an art site. The file extension on each image is "htm". when I try to open each image all I get is gibberish tpye text.
Can convert these "images" to jpeg files so I can view and edit them?
thanks

If the images have a .htm(l) file extension then you need to rename the files and give them an image file extension like .jpg<br />
That should be sufficient to make programs recognize them as images.

New Blog entry screen not rendering properly in IE9 on Windows 7

I have set up a Blog site in Sharepoint 2013 and all seemed to be working OK, I am running Windows 8 with IE10. When the blog site was accessed from a Windows 7 pc using IE9, all initially looked OK, however when I clicked on the link to add a new
blog post, the page looked like this:
I have tried this on both a workstation and via remote desktop, everytime it is accessed using IE9, this issue pops up. All other parts of the SharePoint 2013 site so far seem OK.
Any suggestions?

Hello,
Try to set browser compatibility mode to IE9. You can access browser compatibility mode setting in Developer Tools menu.
