08 or stick with 06?

I haven't published my 08 website yet because I have been reading that there are problems with viewing websites on PC's. Should I stick with my 06 iweb knowing I won't have any compatibility problems? Or should I take the plunge and publish the 08 version? I don't have much time to spend on working through problems, that's why I switched to iweb in the first place. Also, I don't want all of the people that are viewing the site to have to switch to another browser. I'm using the website for showing my school classes. Last year with 06 the parents loved it. Easy is better for them. They are already having to download quicktimeto watch videos of the classes and deal with a few problems there if they are using a PC. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks!

I have a partition on an external firewire drive that also has a bootable backup on it where I keep the iWeb '06 application and the folders with the domain.sites files.
iWeb '08 and the folders with the domain.sites2 files are on my Mac.
To use iWeb '06, I go to System Preferences/System/Start Up Disk, select the partition with iWeb '06 on it and boot from that.
If you want the applications the other way round you can, first of all, transfer iWeb '06 to an external drive to allow you to install '08 and then switch them.
I use the application Super Duper to create the bootable backups and, thereafter, to do incremental backups. Although it is a shareware application it will do the bootable backup in the trial mode. You only have to pay if you want the incremental feature - who wouldn't?

I used to use iWebsites to separate out my domain files but I have gone back to keeping them in separate folders. I have a second Dock to the left of my screen, created using the application Dock-It, in which I keep my main folders. Launching a site takes three clicks and is faster than using iWebsites.

  • Hi i bought a new 500gb hard drive on my 2011 macbook pro, it is a blank hardrive and i forgot to save my other files on an external hard drive , i have a usb stick with mavericks installed on it. can i just go ahead and do a straight install by using it?

    hi i have a macbook pro 2011 model, i decided to upgrade my hardrive and bought a 500gb blank hardrive, my query is because i wasnt able to save most of my files and my operating system to an external hard drive, i have a usb stick with a mavericks os installed on it. will i be able to do a straight install by just doing this method? i will be grateful for any tips or help u might offer, thanks.

    Is it just bootable or does it have the Mavericks installation files on it? If so, yes. If not, no. You might consider getting an external enclosure. Put your old drive in it and boot to its Recovery partition. You can install from there. As a matter of fact, you can run Migration Assistant and get all your stuff over too.

  • Fox4 says that it PREVENTs the user from having two tabs open to the same URL. There are times when I WANT multiple open tabs! Can I override this? (Please tell me. If I can't, then I don't want Fox4. I'll stick with 3.x and NoScript.) Thanks.

    Tell me EXACTLY how to FORCE Fox4 to allow me to have MORE THAN ONE tab open to any given web page.
    Otherwise, I have to stick with Fox3.
    Precise details, please. Thanks.

    # Open a new tab - Ctrl + t
    # Start typing the URL in the awesome bar. The page should displayed in the list below with "Swtich to Tab" written under it
    # Scroll down to the URL in the list using the down arrow key and hit Alt + Enter.
    The webpage is opened a second time instead of simply switching to it. Simple.

  • No sticker with license number Windows XP to Toshiba NB100

    I lost sticker with license number Windows XP to Toshiba NB100. I have an invoice.
    How can I retrieve licence number?
    Authorized service refused to support this topic.

    Hi
    You cannot retrieve the licence number.
    First of all the sticker on the bottom of the unit was an OEM serial key. Such key cannot be used and would not work in connection with fresh installed Win XP system.
    The point is that Toshiba image which was preinstalled on this notebook was already activated and this means that such key was useless.
    I assume you did not create a Toshiba Recovery disk (or flash USB stick) in the past? Right?
    Such disks would reinstall the Toshiba image containing activated Win XP system.
    Well, usually its possible to order such disk [here|http://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx] but I think this would not be possible anymore because of the notebook age.
    Solution: you would need to purchase the Win XP with valid serial key.

  • I've tried the new iWork and feel cheated. I'm gonna stick with my old '09 version. It appears to have lost utility, and is now easily surpassed by Word 07. Is a new version that's worth the money and hype coming?

    I've tried the new iWork (on a friend's new MacBook Pro) and feel very disappointed. I'm gonna stick with my old '09 version. It appears to have lost utility, and is now easily surpassed by Word 07. Dear Apple, from a veteran user: In your rush to market, you have dropped the basket on this one! Is a new version that's worth the money and hype coming?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    A lot of users have complained about the lack of features of the new iWork version. However, I'm sure Apple will add features with more updates in the future, like with Final Cut Pro X. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6049?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Until then, you can carry on using iWork '09, or try Microsoft Office 2011 or even LibreOffice, which is free and open-source

  • Worth upgrading to Mountain Lion or stick with Snow Leopard?

    A few weeks ago some of you helped me navigate the pros/cons of buying a spanking new Imac vs a mid 2011 (I decided the 2011 was plenty worthy).   I thank you for that, and now I want to ask: if I were to get a mid 2011 Imac, is it worth to upgrade to the latest OS, or is sticking with Snow Leopard (my current OS) fine?
    I'm using some older software like FCP 6 and its associated suite of programs, and probably plenty of other applications I'm not thinking of at the moment, that I got back in '08 or so when I got the Imac I have now.   I think I've heard that Lion/Mountain is a total overhaul of the OS compared to Snow Leopard, and that makes me wonder if there are compatibility issues/problems associated with trying to use these older pieces of software with the new OS.  What are the super amazing benefits of Lion or Mountain Lion vs Snow Leopard?  Are they worth it?  Do the aforementioned issues exist? Thanks.

    Someone else will need to answer your Time Machine question because I do not use it. It may work because it should port over all the applications, settings, etc. I was going on the assumption that you would be reinstalling your apps from scratch (I guess I thought that because that is what I did - I wanted as clean an install as possible). Anyway, TM should just transfer things - just remember, if any of those transferred apps have PPC installers and you get rid of your Snow Leopard machine, you'll never be able to reinstall them.

  • Problems reading USB memory sticks with OS 10.9

    Cannot read USB memory sticks with current version of OS 10.9.1 that I previously read without any problem.  What gives?  Any way to fix this problem?  I have lots of work and other material saved on the memory sticks that I need access to this quarter.

    Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

  • HT1349 Hello, how to move the iTunes master file from C drive to an external drive and them iTunes stick with the external drive after on an on going basic?

    My desktop C drive is full HD of 1 TB, I would like to move the current iTunes master file to an external 4TB drive and then iTunes stick with the external drive
    Could this be done, if yes how to do it?
    Thank you for your help
    Henri

    If it's the same as with a PC, the procedure would be to:
    (a) Plug in the new external drive,
    (b) Set your iTunes preferences such that the iTunes Music Folder is on the new drive,
    (c) Use the iTunes "Consolidate Library" utility to copy your library to the new location.
    (d) When the transfer is complete, check "Get Info" on some songs to verify their location.
    The original files will remain on the old drive, so you'll have a way to recover should there be a problem. You may need to manually copy any iPhone/Touch Apps to the new drive since I'm not sure those are transferred with the Consolidate utility.

  • Using an UMTS stick with airport extreme

    Hallo,
    my internet access is actually working only via an umts stick. Can i put this stick into airport express or extreme in order to have a kind of airport wlan for two macs or do i have to connect one of theme and get access via internet sharing?
    Thanks in advance
    Matthias

    The USB port on the AirPort Extreme will support a hard drive and/or a printer while the USB port on an AirPort Express will work only with compatible printers (and a Keyspan remote for PowerPoint presentations), so you will not be able to use your "stick" with the AirPorts.

  • Sticking with Lion for now.

    Based on all the trouble that people are having, and based on all the issues that people went through, including me, when upgrading to Lion, I am sticking with Lion for a while.
    Lion is stable enough for me and whatever quirks and speed issues that might remain are not enough to make me torture myself and wreck my system for now.
    I'll wait for 10.8.4 at least. I can't imagine all the people having trouble are novices.
    Is this what Apple expects? Its users to find out what's wrong with their OS?

    Mountain Lion upgrade from Lion on three Macs went
    just fine.  Prior to upgrade, made sure all apps were
    updated (or upgraded) to most recent versions available.
    Did checks to insure all hard drives were in good shape.
    Most importantly, backed up all data and also created clones
    of each system, so if there were problems, return to normalcy
    would be quick.
    The systems:
    2011 Mac Mini Server (without Server)
    early 2011 13" 2.7GHz i7 Macbook Pro
    mid 2010 Mac Mini used as HTPC

  • Convince me to "stick with Fireworks"

    Hi All,
    I switched from Photoshop to Fireworks back in 1999 - because of its mix of Vector & Raster editing, slice/export and GIF animation capabilities. I've stayed loyal I think you'll agree!
    But... my command of Photoshop and Illustrator has suffered. I feel there's so much I could do with those tools not only for for print, but also for websites.
    I tried going back to Photoshop a few times over the years but just couldn't manage its drawing tools - maddening!
    However, I'm now seriously considering switching if PS does what I need... and more.
    FW cons
    Most web design job ads specify PS not FW
    I need to be adept with PS and AI for print etc. I'm fossilizing!
    Assets and Artwork are often PS and AI files, it'd be good to share files with others in the company without probs
    It'd be good to use the same app and sometimes the same files for web and print
    Raster Image editing is more basic
    Less 'painterly' in its capabilities.
    Feels like I need to move on and upskill as a designer
    FW pros
    Can I draw in PS as easily as FW? - or will I need to awkwardly integrate Illustrator into the workflow?
    Handy sometimes to make animated gifs (but perhaps I should do it in Flash)
    I'm expert with it.
    So here it is: Why should I stick with Fireworks?
    Thanks all! I'll be keen to hear your views
    John

    Ditto -- bummer of a workflow.
    Someone will eventually consolidate these apps into a plugin-based framework like Firefox. I made a blog post about this, urging people to request this as a (huge) feature.
    I, too, need convincing.
    I recently switched, hoping to avoid the duality of Photoshop & Illustrator, then found out FIREWORKS CAN'T EXPORT TO EPS?!?! I thought I had beaten the system -- vector AND raster drawing.... I'm still waiting for someone to make a plugin. I'd pay good money for this!
    Right now, the only convincing feature is the unique object-oriented nature of fireworks.

  • Do i stick with the 60GB drive or go with 80?

    Hi all,
    Sorry to bother everyone but I'm just wondering whether or not I should buy the stock 2.0GHz white MacBook and stick with the 60GB drive or up to the 80? I'm worried about having trouble replacing it if I make it a custom to order Mac. I'm only really going to use it for homework, movies music and stuff but having heard about the space used by OSX and iLife i'm a litle unsure. Any suggestions would be great .

    Just wondering to help us out
    How large is your music collection? And are there and other apps that you use? Also, what do you normaly do for homework?
    If you are a developer the extra space would be useful.
    If you like to get life out of your laptop, go w/ the 80.\
    Hope this helps.

  • Pre teen wants an apple ipad. is the 3 refirbished got all the bugs out or should I stick with the 2?

    does the refirbised iPad 3 have all the bugs out or should I stick with the iPad 2?

    There a few reports of issues, but those expereincing them are in a very small minority. I've never had issues with either of mine.
    My suggestion would be the refurbished 3rd generation. A refurbished unit will have had a little extra testing and basically be a new iPad. Also, the 3rd gen has a faster processor and a better screen than the 2, and will run Siri (the 2 won't).

  • Camera just died... should I stick with MiniDV format?

    I only need SD and I want to make sure I get a camera that works well with FCP 6. Should I stick with MiniDV format or are there Memory Card or Hard Drive based cameras that work well for SD shooting and FCP? Thanks

    Hello Bruce,
    What kind of budget are you looking at when it comes to the purchase of your next camera?
    As a previous owner, I highly recommend purchasing a used, low hours, Panasonic AG-DVX100B.
    It is a fantastic camera, I don't want to start up a war of the SD cameras in this thread but I personally believe it is the best SD camera ever made. And many others feel the same way. It can shoot in multiple frame rates (24P, 24PA, 30P, and 60i) and with the cameras scene files it makes it easy to get the look you want. It is built like a tank and with the Leica lens you get very good quality with no need to transcode to a different format for FCP.
    Do some research on them if you haven't already. I guarantee you wont be disappointed if that is the route you took. I know I wasn't.
