Prodessor usage and RSS feeds

I've noticed that when I check my 'Blogs' RSS page (consisting of Engadget, Gizmodo, Lifehacker, Boing-Boing, 43 Folders, Dvorak, and TUAW) my processor usage spikes to 100% and the feeds take a really long time to load. My guess is this is because so many of these feeds include pictures and can get rather long. Has anyone else noticed this, and is there anything I can do about it? Or should I just grin and bear it?

Nevermind, no big deal. Probably because the entries are often an entire post, graphics and all.

  • How can I import my bookmarks and RSS feeds from Flock?

    I just switched over from Flock because it's too sluggish to use anymore. How do I import all my bookmarks, passwords, and RSS feeds? If I have to do it all by hand, I'm going to cry.
    Also do I need a separate RSS reader to get my feeds in a nice list like Flock does it? I don't really get how Live Bookmarks are supposed to work.
    Thanks. I used Firefox before moving to Flock, so hopefully switching back won't be too painful.

    Hm. This was somewhat helpful. I got my bookmarks moved (although now that I see how many of them I had backed up, I'm not sure that was a good idea).
    Still trying to figure out the passwords... I have my Flock profile folder and my Firefox profile folders open... it looks like I need to copy the key3.db file and the signons.sqlite file from the Flock folder to the Firefox folder, does that sound correct?
    As for the RSS feeds, it looks like I'll need an external reader to make any use of the .OPML file that Flock exported for me. I'm still not really clear on how Live Bookmarks work, exactly. I see how to create and manage them, I just don't get how they function day to day. I have a ridiculous number of RSS feeds, some of which still have half a hundred posts I'm working my way through.
    Any recommendations for a good Firefox compatible feed reader?
    Thanks!

  • IWeb 08 and RSS feeds on godaddy

    Hello friends - I am setting up a website to be hosted on godaddy. I had no problems uploading the site using easyiwebpublisher. However, I want to use the blog function. I set up the blob on iweb and I can read them on the site, but when I click the "subscribe to RSS" link on my page it says:
    "The page you tried to access does not exist on this server. This page may not exist due to the following reasons:
    You are the owner of this web site and you have not uploaded (or incorrectly uploaded) your web site. For information on uploading your web site using FTP client software or web design software, click here for FTP Upload Information.
    The URL that you have entered in your browser is incorrect. Please re-enter the URL and try again.
    The Link that you clicked on incorrectly points to this page. Please contact the owner of this web site to inform them of this situation."
    Any help on how to get the RSS feed to work w/o mobileme?
    I understand it may not work without MobileME but I wanted to know if anyone has a workaround.
    One more bit of data:
    When I publish to folder the pop-up has me enter the URL for my site because "iWeb uses the URL to provide an RSS feed for your blog."
    Does that mean I put http://www.weirdfantasy.com/ or should I put the URL for my RSS feed page? http://www.weirdfantasy.com/WeirdFantasy/News/rss.xml
    I put http://www.weirdfantasy.com/ and I get the error message.
    Jawko -out...

    If I upload the index.html that isn't in the sitefolder, won't it just overwrite the one in the sitefolder?
    No. You can't overwrite something inside a folder with something you put outside the folder. It is normal for there to be an index.html in both places in an iWeb site.
    I just did that using the godaddy FTP uploader and now I can't get to my homepage. Says it can't be found.
    I recommend that you never use the uploader provided by a host, as they often result in things not being uploaded correctly. Instead use a real ftp app.

  • [SOLVED] Conky and RSS feeds

    I'm trying to get rss feed to conky from cnn.com.  I have tried:
    ${rss http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss feed_title}
    ${rss http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss item_title}
    ${rss http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss item_titles 10}
    But I always get "Conky: Error Processing RSS data"  I've tried other feed and they work, but I don't think they used *.rss, it was *.xml  How do I need to fix this to work?
    Thanks in advance

    I tried the link and didn't work until I found out the actual problem .  I have to define the update interval even though there's a default update interval, so this worked:
    ${rss http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss 15 item_titles 10}
    or
    ${rss http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.xml 15 item_titles 10 } works too.

  • Safari and RSS Feeds

    I can't access any RSS feed in OS X 10.8, and maybe other things as well. I tried to access RSS feeds and was given an error saying that there was no application for it. I tried accessing iTunes 25 New Releases and got the same error message. I have just moved to 10.8 in the last 2 days and this is the first time that I have tried to access these so I can't think of anything that I might have done that would have affected the system negatively.

  • IWeb, Podcasts, and RSS feeds

    http://web.mac.com/realityramble
    So I feel like I made a grave error in choosing iWeb to create and .mac to host my podcast. After creating the podcast page in iWeb and publishing it to .mac and the iTunes Music Store, I noticed that the podcast didn't have artwork when you find it in ITMS like it should have. I emailed ITMS and they replied that I have to manually update my RSS feed. No problem, except...
    I've no idea how to do this! I know what to change and all that to add the artwork that should be there as well as the ITMS search keywords, but I have no idea where to find my RSS feed on my computer so that I can update it. ITMS email help told me to do a spotlight search on my computer but I can't find it anywhere.
    iWeb doesn't tell you where the website is saved on your computer and I can't find it for the life of me.
    Does anyone know how I can manually update my RSS feed? Again, I've found the page that tells me how I'm supposed to change the feed and I know what to do once I find it, but I can't find the bugger!
    This seems ridiculous, and creating your site on iWeb is supposed to be the easy and fool-proof method, but it's really not and I'm really frustrated.

    Hi Keith
    You need to look in your iDisk (if you don't have it mounted go to System Prefs > .Mac > iDisk, and wait till it's synchronized).
    Your RSS.xml file will be in a subfolder of your Web folder - open it in TextEdit, make your changes and Save.

  • Embedding and RSS Feeds

    I am trying to move my blog from blogger (drkatiegoestomedschool.blogspot.com) to iWeb and running in to problems at every turn. The big one though is the lack of embedding within the RSS feeds. In each entry I have multiple images and will sometimes also add youtube videos.
    While I can get the images and youtube videos into each entry, they are not in the RSS feed. I've tried putting the images/videos within the text and still nothing.
    Is there something I'm missing? Is it even possible to do such a thing on iweb?

  • Permissions And RSS feeds

    Hello everyone,
    I have installed three RSS feeds on my main top level site. I can see it and everyone in my IT group can see it, but no one else in the company can see them. I've looked into permissions and I don't see a problem there...Is there anything I might be
    missing?

    Hello Gryphon6,
    Can you check if the people who are not from the IT group are able to directly access the listfeed.aspx page of one of your rss feeds?
    For example:
    http://Server/_layouts/listfeed.aspx?List=ListGUID
    If you can reproduce this I would also check the ULS logs

  • Safari issues with at least two sites and RSS Feeds broken

    Greetings all. This is my first time posting on here, I'm also a new(er) Apple user. Finally switched from the dark side. Love the Macbook, but after so many years with a PC, I am definitely not within my element on some things. Here are my two issues:
    1. On Safari (and Firefox incidentally) if I go to msnbc.com or yahoo.com I get a dysfunctional appearance. msnbc.com simply doesn't load except the outer frames. The inner content doesn't load at all. They have redesigned their site and I still only get the outer frame from the old design. On yahoo.com, it simply gives me a very bland, generic front page and tells me to upgrade to a more current browser. I'm running the most current Safari. Don't know what's wrong. I get some challenges on some other sites i visit, but nothing specific comes to mind - except maybe flash driven applications - heavy flash. They run slow or not at all.
    2. I love(d) RSS feeds in Safari. All of a sudden they stopped working. It still shows unread messages - which I cannot clear - and will not load any new messages. If I try to read a feed, it gives me a error page - similar to a non-existent page/link. Not sure how to fix this.
    With the first issue, being relatively new to Apple, etc, I honestly don't know if I selected some weird setting unknowingly that is causing my problems or not, etc. Don't know if I caught a virus, bug, etc. Wouldn't know how to find out if I did.
    Anyone that is patient, intelligent with Apple and doesn't mind helping out a stupid new Apple user. :o) VERY MUCH APPRECIATED IN ADVANCE!

    All companies are out there to make money, however much they try to disguise the fact.
    GoldenShoes is partly right. However, not all sites are deliberately designed to just work in IE and Firefox; a lot of developers simply don't realise their code (or parts of it) is not functional in other browsers because at least 90% of the world's population use IE or FF. In other cases, it's just not economically viable to cater to such a tiny percent of the Internet-using population (besides, what would all those people that want to be 'different' do?!
    You might want to try contacting those companies and telling them of your problems - after all, they are losing business by doing this and they may be unaware.
    The other part of the argument is that FF, and IE especially, let a lot more 'bad', invalid code though to cater to their users. Opera and Safari don't really do this as much, and there is a lot of cross-browser incompatibility.

  • Rules and RSS Feeds

    Is it possible to apply rules to RSS articles (such as "If message type is RSS Article and content contains [phrase or word] then move to trash")?
    My attempts to do this with the RSS articles in Mail have been unsuccessful...

    I agree. That is not correct. I have a rule that runs on my RSS feeds, but I can't seem to get it to run automatically. I have to force the rule to run and then it works ok. Of course if I have to do that, there isn't much reason to have a rule. Any help??

  • Mobile Safari and RSS feeds

    Sorry if this has already been discussed - I haven't found anything on it yet.
    I have a few RSS feeds bookmarked on my iPhone. Whenever I click on an article I'm unable to use the back button to return to the main feed page. I always have to result to opening up the bookmark menu and hitting the main page that way.
    Does anyone else have this issue? Is this a problem for everyone?

  • Belle update and RSS-feeds

    How put rss-feeds to widget or shortcut as it was in Anna ?

    Clear data, Clear cache (if applicable), and Clear defaults
    http://support.vzw.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=34831

  • Iweb and IE...and RSS feed issue.

    Hi there.
    According to a friend of mine using IE6 my Podcast page of my website doesn't display correctly, it appears to work fine in both Firefox and Safari and other users with those browsers have had no issues, can someone please tell me if they have problems in IE? I'd appreciate it greatly. the address is http://www.stueyslifestories.com
    Also, my RSS feed link for the podcast begins with the ITPC thing at the start, I presume that means iTunes Podcast? unfortunately that means my viewers/listeners will need iTunes to subscribe to my podcasts, and any podcast search engine I try and submit the link to won't accept the link, nor will they accept it if I try and remove the itpc from the beginning, how do I alter it so that it's just a regular HTTP? or something else that's universal and acceptable by most feedreaders/search engines?? thanks.

    This problem appears to be a Microsoft issue, as I can't subscribe using Firefox on a PC, whereas Firefox on a Mac does work. The error I receive is "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (itpc) isn't associated with any program".
    The itpc protocol appears to be an Apple-only protocol associated with iTunes, iPod, and iPhone. The PC used for the testing did not have iTunes installed, so I would assume that these links will only work if you have iTunes installed.
    As far as the problem with IE on the Mac, this browser is so outdated that there probably is no capability to enhance it to support itpc, so iTunes only modified browsers that had that capability to allow those links to work.
    Your concern about feedreaders and search engines is a valid one. I would guess that with this Apple-only protocol, you'll find your podcasts isolated and not accessible by a large number of Internet users. For this reason, I would not recommend using the ITPC protocol for subscribing. I have done a lot of research on the Internet and have not been able to find any information on how to use the traditional HTTP method. I will let you know if we find an answer to this.
    Sincerely,

  • System Update and RSS feeds don't work (or "no news is good news")

    My Moto Droidx upgraded itself to Android 2.2 and since then, the RSS feeds I had are not showing any new entries. Checking the underlying websites shows that new entries have been made.
    Any attempt to create new Moto or Andrioid RSS news widgets comes back with an error (of course it just says "error" with no number or explanation).
    Has anyone else seen this?   Is there some news blackout in placeIs there a fix or a way to back off Android 2.2???
