Adding a song on iWeb

Is there any what to make a song automatically play when someone comes to my page instead of having to click play?

Debbie,
Welcome to the discussions.
Drag your chosen audio file into your selected iWeb page. When placed there, you will see a box identified as "Drag Image Here". Shrink this box as small as possible and place it in an "out of the way" place on the page. (Don't place an image into the box!)
Publish your site.
As Kirkster has pointed out already, you must now do some post-publish editing of your iWeb files. Get used to it. If you are really going to be creative with iWeb, you will learn to use a text editor to modify the html that iWeb creates.
Your song is embedded in the page to which you placed it. Assuming you are using .Mac as your web host, navigate to the .js file of that page, using the Go menu in Finder:
Go/iDisk/MyiDisk/Sites/iWeb/Nameofsitefolder/Page_filesFolder/Page.js
Open the .js files for that particular page on your iDisk with any text editor (I like Taco, and it's free) and make the following changes to the script code that controls your movie (song): (you will find the movie code near the top of the page in the .js file)
Change autoplay="false" to autoplay="true"
Change loop="false" to loop="true"
Changing controller value="true" to controller value="false" will remove the controller from the page entirely. Make these changes in both sets of tags, (object and embed).
Make the changes and just "Save". (Do not use Save As!) Clear your browser cache and you should see the changes take effect immediately. Bear in mind you will have to make this modification each time you republish your site. You can also save this modified .js file and replace the republished .js file with it, as long as no other changes were made to the page in iWeb.

  • HT204411 i am trying to purchase many songs at one time. i have added all songs to wish list , now to purchase it will only let me  do one at a time  please advise how i can purchase more than one at a time

    i am trying to purchase many songs at one time. i have added all songs to wish list , now to purchase it will only let me  do one at a time  please advise how i can purchase more than one at a time

    There used to be a 'buy all' button on the wish list screen but for some reason that has been removed from the current version of iTunes so you will need to buy each item individually. You can try leaving feedback for Apple and maybe it'll be added back in a future update : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html

  • Added a Song...How do I fade the song in the middle of a video clip?

    I have a 5 minute video of my daughters first birthday. I added a song, but I want to accomplish the following:
    Start the song 15 seconds into the video (after we sing happy birthday)
    Fade the Audio roughly 2 minutes into the video so that I can highlight my older daughters voice
    In between all of this I want to detach the background noise/talking from the video so only the song is heard.
    There are only a few clips of the video that I want the voices to be heard, other than that, I just want the song to be the only audio.
    Help???

    Yes, you can do this.
    1) Drag the song and drop it on the video clip at the point (15 seconds) where you want it to start. You drop it on top of the video clip - not in the background.
    2) You will want to isolate the clips where you want your daughter's voice to be heard. If they are already separate clips, this is easy. But if they are part of one long clip, you can select the frames that you want to isolate by dragging with your mouse. A yellow border should be around these frames. Then EDIT/SPLIT CLIP. Or right-click/Split Clip. (Note: It is important to do this in the Project, not in the Event)
    3) Once you have Split the clip, you can open the audio inspector and turn the volume down on those video clips where you want the clips to be muted. Turn the audio down to zero. For those clips where you want your daughter's voice to be heard, select the clip. Go to the Audio tab of the inspector, and turn on Ducking. Ducking will diminish all other tracks by the percentage you specify.
    4) [This Video Tutorial|http://www.apple.com/findouthow/movies/imovie08.html#audioclips] is a good explanation of audio in iMovie. It is for iMovie 08, but most of it still apples in iMovie 09.

  • I added some songs to my itunes but now my itunes won't play the songs - it says it can't locate the song although the Itunes match is turned on and it says all of my songs are in the cloud - anyone have any thoughts

    Did you delete the hard copy of the songs from your computer after you uploaded them?
    If so just highlight the said songs and delete but do not check the box that says delete from iCloud and your songs should play fine. 
    This happens when the original file is moved from the location that itunes was looking for it at and if you did this because you uploaded it then it will still be in the cloud you just need itunes to read from cloud and not think it's supposed to be finding the original file

  • Do  I need Tiger in order to upload a song to iWeb

    I'm just now experimenting with the new iLife, and drug a song into my iWeb... it plays, has the little control pane device on the layout, but once uploaded it doesn't have the control pane nor music.
    Am I gonna hear how I need Tiger to upload and play a song to iWeb?

    Did you bring the song in from iTunes? I'm guessing that you did...if so, the song will not play as it is protected from being used in this way.
    You may want to seek another source for your songs.
    There is also some very good advice and tips from Michael Wong about music on a web page here:

  • Nano not adding new songs even with free space

    I have my nano automatically updating only a few of my playlist on itunes. Today however, I encountered a problem, for some reason even though itunes shows that I have 743 MB free, I am unable to update my nano, even when just adding one song to the playlist. I am able to manual update though, anyone have a solution, I would love to be able to still use the itunes playlist.

    same problems over here.... 4gb model, but won't add songs even though i have ~1.81gb free. what the heck?

  • Creative Media Source - Problem adding a song to playl

    I created playlists for my Zen Vision M using Creative Media Source. I did not use the PC Library but rather used the player as the source and created play lists. I have successfully added songs to the playlists over the past several months. Yesterday when I added a song, it replaced the entire playlist with the one song that I was adding. I tested several more times by creating new playlists and the same thing happened.
    I can accomplish the same thing using the explorer but prefer Creative Media Source. Has anyone had a similar experience? Any advice?Thanks. Jay

    Try download and install the latest MediaSource 5.0.38 and the MediaSource plugin of your ZEN Vision:M. Creative MediaSource 5 and its various plugins are now officially available for download at your respecti've product download sites. The main Creative MediaSource 5 Player/Organizer:

  • I have added more songs to my library. Half of the library has selected ticks but when I click on any of the others to select them the whole song disappears from the list. Why and what can I do to fix?

    Hey Paul,
    If I understand correctly, it sounds like iTunes is not grouping the songs from a particular CD together. The cause could be something as minor as a misspelling or slight variations. For more information, see the following resource:
    Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together?

  • How do I access a wishlist I created on my husband's itunes ( i didn't have his password so I just added the songs to a wishlist and now I can not find out where it is???

    How can I access or find my wishlist I created on itunes???  I was searching itunes using my husband's account but didn't have his password - so instead of buying - I added all the songs using the wish list so I can buy them at a later date when he arrived home - I wanted to check the list and I discovered I can't find anywhere that says "wishlist".....

    If it was your husband's account that was logged in when you added the songs then it will be linked to his account - if his account is still logged in then on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on the computer's iTunes there should be a Quicklinks section with a wish list link underneath it which should have them on it :
    (There used to be a 'buy all' button on the wish list screen, but you now have to buy each item individually by clicking on their price.)

  • HT4527 I set up my iphone with my laptop but now its broken is there anyway of adding new song using anpther laptop/desktop computer without erasing everything currently on my phone?

    I set up my iphone with my laptop but now its broken is there anyway of adding new song using anpther laptop/desktop computer without erasing everything currently on my phone? I have no access to my old computer and the songs on it are from cds not itunes purchases
    Please help!!

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

  • Adding multiple songs

    I want to burn an iPhoto slideshow and use 4 songs. It seems that iDVD will only one song. Is there a workaround?

    Good suggestion... Other options include bringing your still photos into iMovie and adding your songs there (can make nice fadeouts/ins). iDVD can do slideshows with 99 pictures or less. If you have an audio editing program, you can copy/paste your songs together, and import the "new" song into iTunes (so you fool iTunes into thinking it's only one song).
    If you have Quicktime Pro ($30), you can Export/Share your iPhoto slideshow as a Quicktime movie, then use Quicktime to open each song you want to use, copy it, and Add to the iPhoto/Quicktime slideshow. Repeat this step until all the slideshow has audio. Roxio Toast ($80) also includes a nice slideshow function.
