1 Mac, 2 sites

My son and I each have a web site we just created with iWeb on my new MacBook and published to .Mac. But the URL is ONLY for his site. Can't find mine. How can I create a URL for just my site?

My sites name:http://web.mac.com/jimmm24/4_rivers
I can't find any site named 4_rivers. Are you sure it was published? Did you try File > Publish All from iWeb? If you do Go > iDisk > My iDisk and navigate to Web/Sites, do you see a folder called 4_rivers there? If not, the site has not been published. If you see a folder with another name besides that of your son's site, let us know what it is.

Good Mac Review Site

Hello all. I am finally making the switch and have a small question.
I realize this is a "Help" site, so basing my decisions off this area alone would skew me toward the negative. My question is what are some good all-around Mac review sites? Google searches bring up so much information its mind numbing. I figured the experienced Mac users here could point me in the right direction.
Thanks again.

I like
http://www.lowendmac.com/
because it is a bit different. The site has original content, as well as links to Mac-related stories from "around the web." Many of those external links are from off the beaten path; I often find news that I have not seen before.
Also, the left sidebar has a list of links to other interesting Mac-related "Favorite Sites." And it has detailed "profiles" of all Mac models.
http://www.lowendmac.com/profiles.htm
I also often read
http://www.macdailynews.com/
which links to top Apple-related news items with a dose of (usually) pro-Apple commentary from the editor(s). Reviews are often included as linked stories.

Final Cut Pro X and Mac Caption Site Licenses

How much does it cost for a site license for Final Cut Pro X and Mac Caption? I need to have one computer going for production and one for training someone. Is there 501C-3 pricing available?

FCP X can be used on as many Macs as you own. Be sure each is logged in to your iTunes/App Store account. So for two Macs that you own, you can download to both, only pay for one.
There is a bulk license deal for it, but you'd need to be running 10+ Macs before you'd get any discount or anything.
Mac Caption is an issue you'll have to take up with them.

I am trying to download Photoshop on my mac, the site says the download started but nothing happens...

I am trying to install the CC on my Mac because my desktop computer died on me. I logged in, selected photoshop ( or premiere, or after effects) and hit the download button. The site says download in progress but nothing happens. I have downloaded other software ( not adobe) and it worked fine...Any idea what is wrong? I am not a Mac person and I am kind of lost. Thanks!

How to password protect non .mac web site

does anyone have step-by-step directions on how to make my web page password protected on a non .mac web space?
for example, http://www.yoursite.net/~userid
My internet service provider does not support web page creation, they just provide the space.
The only thing they said was the path to my directory is /rmgrazi/public_html/ and I should create my index.html file inside the public folder. I've tried creating and uploading a .htaccess file in the public folder, and then putting a .htpasswd file in my root directory /rmgrazi/
This doesn't seem to work. Any advice appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks for your help -- I'm not an expert by any means -- this is my first website... just wanting to put up a family website to share with friends & people I know.
OK, the url is http://www.hickorytech.net/~rmgrazi/
Right now I just have a blank page up that says "test website"
My .htaccess file is located in /rmgrazi/public_html/ (yes, I put it inside the public folder in order to password protect my whole site).
By the way I'm using TextEdit in OS X, so when I upload the original file with Fetch, it looks like htaccess.txt -- after it's uploaded (as text, not binary of course) then I simply change the name to .htaccess
My .htaccess file includes the following:
AuthUserFile /rmgrazi/.htpasswd
AuthName Members Area
AuthType Basic
Require valid-user
Then I uploaded the .htpasswd one level up to /rmgrazi/ like it says in .htaccess.
The text in this file is just one line with my username:password (the password is written in code). I found a website that does this automatically. Then I just cut & paste it in apple+v
I tried using the Terminal application in OS X panther to see if the server path needs to be longer -- I logged into my ftp.hickorytech.net and entered "pwd" -- that command is supposed to show the server path. /rmgrazi/public_html/ are the only folders I can see. "/" is as far back as it will show.
In Fetch I can change the permissions for .htaccess and .htpasswd by clicking Get Info -- I tried all different combinations, 644, 711, etc... Maybe my permissions are set wrong?

Links to slideshow stopped working on non .mac published site

I was helping my friend redo his website in iWeb. It was previously done in iWeb, and worked fine when published to a folder and uploaded to his verizon account.
Today, when we exported and upload none of the links on the photo gallery pages worked. Clicking a photo to enlarge it found a broken link, and the slide show stopped working too.
I thought I forgot to do something, so I uploaded the old version of the site. That stopped working, too.
Am I missing something?

The Apple slideshow (the one built-in to iWeb) using the photo template is supposedly one of the ".Mac-only" features of iWeb. It uses some resources off the .Mac servers, so it probably won't work when the pages are hosted on other non-.Mac servers.

.mac iWeb site with yahoo domain- much trouble

I have 5 websites made with iweb hosted by .mac.
I just got a yahoo domain name, (organizedmayhemmusic.com).
I want to set that domain name to only one of my sites within iWeb,
but I'm having allot of trouble. Right now I have my yahoo domain settings
set to a masked forward, but I'd like it to work how I originally intended it to.
Which would be when you go to (www.organizedmayhemmusic.com) it shows my iweb site
without any weird stuff or tricks or redirects, if possible. Under yahoo Advanced DNS Settings
I added a record, and it asks for a source, and destination. The source example was
info.thesitename.com. but I don't want any thing in front of it, I'm actually still confused on
all of that. I ended up setting the source to (www), and the destination to (web.mac.com).
Then I created the settings on the .mac account page for a personal domain. And after I typed in
my address it got me to (www.organizedmayhemmusic.com/OrganizedMayhem/OrganizedMayhem.html)
Its my iweb site adress but it replaced web.mac.com with my new domain name.
I want it to be just (www.organizedmayhemmusic.com) and worst of all you can type my other
site/page names after (www.organizedmayhemmusic.com/) and get to my other sites but with
my new domain name in the address. If anyone has any help to offer I would greatly appreciate it.
I never ask for help unless I'm pretty desperate. Thanks in advance, -Terodil-

If anyone has any help to offer
Your choices are to go back to forwarding/masking or move your site to Yahoo.

.Mac "Start Site" not the top site in iWeb site organizer

My first iWeb site I created is for my family stuff. Mildly personal.
My next one will be more friends/work.
But, when I test out the iweb help entry that says the top site in the site organizer is/will be the start site, it does not hold true when I publish them.
The help says:
Your start site is the one that opens when you type this URL (address) into a browser (don't type the brackets):
http://web.mac.com/[YourMemberName]
To change your start site:
Drag the site you want to be the start site so that it appears first in the site organizer.
But, after I publish, the start site is still the old start site. Is this a timing/web cache issue? Or, bug? Or, how can one fix this?

It could be a cache issue, but I think this is less likely. Never hurts to emtpy your browser cache though. I have seen one other person who's sites are stuck like this. Couldn't tell you why. She is stuck using the long URLs to specify each site. Maybe this is a bug in iWeb. I don't know.
But here are some things you could try...switch the order of your sites again in the Site Organizer, publish, switch them back and republish. Or you might try a "Publish ALL to .Mac".
The object here is to get iWeb to generate new index.html files that redirect to your choice of a start page. For a little background, if you look in your iDisk inside the Web folder. There is a folder called Sites. Inside Sites, there is a folder called iWeb. Inside the iWeb folder you will see the first of two redirection index.html files. This first one is what allows the short URL to work...
http://web.mac.com/yourname/
Now if you open up the site folder inside the iWeb folder, you will see another index.html file among all the other files there. This is the second index.html file that redirects to the same start page as the first. This allows the "long" URL to be used...
http://web.mac.com/yourname/iWeb/sitefolder/
I have seen situations where either one of these index.html files have not been generated or altered to reflect changes in the Site Organizer...usually the outer index.html file inside the iWeb folder. So anything that you can do to make iWeb publish new files should work....changing the order of your sites, erasing the files from your iDisk and republishing, changing the names of your sites, doing a Publish ALL. Try these things and see if your problem isn't resolved...
If you have found any of this information to be useful to you, please take the time to provide me with feedback by marking my reply as "solved" or "helpful" using those little buttons that you see in the title bar of this reply. I'd really appreciate it!

Can I DL IE8 for use on my Mac - Have sites that I have to sign into

Can I Down Load IE8 for use on my Mac - I have sites that I have to sign into and neither Firefox nor Safari will allow sign in or even open site.
Thanks
GGB

All other browsers have some means for changing the user agent string. This MAY be enough if the site is only checking for a specific browser for one of a host of reasons. If the site uses some kind of IE specific code, then a simple user agent string change won't help, and you're pretty much stuck.

Password protect non .mac iweb site?

I publish to a non .mac server (ie, I do not use .mac). I would like to password protect a subsite within my existing iweb site (the main site is public and the subsite is for members only) I know that the password protect feature in iweb is meant for .mac accounts but is there a way for me to work around that and password protect my subsite?

You would have to check with your host. For example, GoDaddy handles it this way:

Mac File Site window always on top

I am using Dreamweaver 8.0, but have seen this exact same
issue on a Windows CS3 install and a Mac CS3 install.
I like to have the Files Window detached from the right side,
and expanded so I can see the Remote Site and Local Files lists
side by side. When I open an html file, I expect the html file to
open on top of the file list window. It works this way on some
installs, but not on others, very annoying. In the problem
installs, I must manually move the file (site) window way down to
the right to expose the html file I want to work on. Then when I
want open another html file, I have to drag it file window back up,
to see my file list, double click on the file, and then move the
file list back out of the way.
In other words, in the problem setups, the File Window is
"always on top", so it must be a preference or setting, but I
cannot figure out.
Please help me fix this annoying problem.

I'm having the exact same problem in DW CS5 now. Did you find a solution? Hitting fn+F8 isn't going to work on my iMac extended keyboard. F8 is the iTunes play pause button. Besides, having to command-tab to an app THEN hit fn+F8 just isn't going to work obviously.
I can't believe in 2010 this is broken.
Please do let me know if you found a way around it. I tried all the different layout prefabs in CS5, and without exception they all do it.

Podcasts on Non-.mac hosted site

Anyone have a good link to instructions on how to do this?
Thanks in advance!

One other thing to add about uploading a podcast to a site other than .Mac.
If you are using a redirect URL for your site (the kind you might get from Register.com or Godaddy.com), you have to use the host site name.
Example. I have a website that has tons of extra bandwidth. In my case it's wyethdigital.com. So my friend and I want to do a podcast, but we want a different domain name (in our case, howtogirl.com). We buy the domain as a redirect URL that points to wyethdigital.com.
When I use iWeb to publish a podcast or blog (anything with an RSS feed), I publish to a folder, and a dialogue comes up asking for the URL of the RSS host site. I have to enter wyethdigital.com because the redirect URL is basically only a frame, and there is no such site.

When I hit reply on the .Mac Mail site, an incorrect address is generatedW

When I'm using the mail program on the Internet .mac site, and hit reply to respond to a letter I received, inevitably the automatic address generated by the program won't function. The reply button puts the person's name and then e-mail address in brackets on the address line. When I hit the command to send, I receive a message that the address is not a valid e-mail address. Then I have to go back and erase the name and remove the brackets-then I am able to send the e-mail. Is everyone having this problem with mail on the .Mac site? I mean I am not typing in the e-mail address incorrectly. The program generates the return e-mail address when I hit reply and it is always incorrect because it puts the person's name as part of the e-mail. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks
Jim Lindsey

Hi,
This happens to me when the person's name you are
replying to contains a comma and webmail tries to
send it to two people.
eg if a mail comes from SURNAME, FORENAME
<[email protected]> then I will get an
error as the program thinks that SURNAME is an
invalid address
but I get an error message every time. It brings up the person's name followed by the email address in brackets. Then when I try to send, I get the message that this is not a valid address. Is this happening with everyone on .Mac site? Surely not or they would fix it.

Url anchors and .mac pages/sites

I've been in the habit in these discussions of using a =href... html code to anchor a url to a text description of the link. But lately if I do that and the url is a page on my .mac account (iWeb or homepage), clicking on the link returns you to the discussion thread the link was posted in, rather than taking you to the url I anchored to the test. If I post the url straight, it works fine.
Any idea what's up?

Thanks for following up on this. James Tseng and Apnewbie have pitched in on the thread I linked above. We can't figure out what's wrong with the code I was using. As near as I can tell, it's identical to the code that James used in a post where it does work. But we did find a version that will work for me:
the one
I don't use Word at all anymore. I keep the code stashed in Voodoo Pad, and edit as needed in the Post Message box on these forms. But the original source for the code came from a "reply" box where I had hit "quote original" to find the code. Maybe a stray invisible character showed up there?
Here's the (not working) code from Voodoo Pad:
this page.
And here's what happen if I type it over:
this page.
....Ok I've worked with this a couple times, hitting "preview" and checking the links, and it sure looks to be an invisible character somewhere, as the second link works. Thanks again for working on this.

Viewing ColdFusion 9 Mac localhost sites that are rerouted via virtual host on VMWare Fusion PC

Hey, I've got some localhost CF9 stuff running on my mac that are rerouted via virtual host and etc/host file to be like local.myprojectname.dev and I'm trying to set things up in VMWare Fusion PC so I can view in a browser. I've gotten as far as being able to add an IP to the PCs host file, and then pull up the root directory of the localhost but can't seem to figure out how to get the virtual host domain to work. This make any sense?

You will need to configure Host header support in your web server software. Both IIS and Apache support Host headers, but they're configured differently of course.
Then, if you want those Host headers to route on your Mac host OS, you'll need to map them in /etc/hosts to your VM's IP address.
