Already have domain and web hosting...

I already have a domain (at go daddy) and web hosting (at yahoo) but am wondering if the websites I make in iWeb can be uploaded to these instead of using .mac. Sorry if this has already been asked but I was just getting bits and pieces of info to answer this. Thanks for your help. - David

Yes, here are some tips:

IWeb '08: domain and web hosting issues

This is a comment on iWeb '08 in conjuction with a .mac account:
I was delighted when I first read in Macworld about the new iWeb '08, as I had hoped very much, being a fledgling small business owner, and having very little computer web-coding knowledge, to be able to easily put up a great website with my own domain. I thought, "wow, I can now use these for my own domain name, publishing easily via .mac.!"
Well, as I pursued my research on this, I found also through Macworld (here is the link)
http://www.macworld.com/2007/08/reviews/iweb08/index.php -- that as great as iWeb '08 is, if you truly want to have a smooth experience with your own website, and are not a practiced web-techie, the iWeb/.mac/yourowndomain.com will hobble you in various ways. See further discussions of this on the .mac forums.
My suggestion to Apple:
1) Why not just sell the iWeb templates in a separate package, so that they can be used freely on personal or commercial domains registered with chosen web hosting companies? Apple can of course, choose the price on this!
2) If Apple is going to do iWeb templates, they need to remain in the accepted, easily downloadable format that is required of everything else on the Internet. .mac forum posters complained about the long download time and apparently didn't realize that iWeb images are in the PNG file-heavy format instead of JPG. Converting these to JPG causes you to lose some design features in the original files.
3) Or, why not just have a really simple, Apple-intuitive web-design program using a bunch of templates that you can customize to some extent? This would be something especially for non-tech types like me who just want to easily put up a simpler classy website whether for small business or personal use.
4) If you are going to be a web hosting company, be a web hosting company! Or else, just say it plainly, ".mac is for you to have a family and friends website, and that's it!" Why have all the current hassles involved with publishing via .mac to yourowndomain.com? Apple has great things going and could be a top notch web-hoster for all the mac owners. The beauty of Apple is the classy design, and the intuitive nature of (well, most of) its products.
I think you have lots and lots of host-and-design-your-website-right-with-dotmac wannabes waiting in the wings out there!
Just my two cents. Or three or four...

I think I was struggling with the same issue. I have a small commercial site and it would not be appropriate to link direct to .mac. I really like the ease that changes can be made to .mac so I added a cname record to "mydomain.com". It just kicked in yesterday but it seems to work great (hosted by aplus.net). The address bars shows "mydomain.com/whatever" as you work your way thru the web site. I was under the impression that it would only show "mydomain.com" even if you were in pages within the site. I am definitely a non-tech type when it comes to web sites. Seems I now have the best of both worlds - I can make changes to the site in minutes with no ftp, and users see the correct domain name...
My only concern: how does google handle indexing???

THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY, I DOWNLOADED HANDBRAKE BUT WOULDN'T LET ME USE IT BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE VLC WHICH I DID. WHEN I FINALLY GOT HANDBRAKE TO WORK I SELECTED THE DVD FOR SOURCE AND IT STARTED SCANNING. A HALF HOUR LATER IT SAID NOT RECOGNISE SOURCE. TAKE IT IS ENCRYPTED.

Hey christopherc53009480,
Could you please let me know what version of Acrobat you have purchased.
Also, please share the screenshot of the message that pops on your screen as I need to analyze the exact issue.
Hope to hear from you.

I've recently started to use Numbers but when I try to sync to iCloud it asks me to create a new iCloud account. Problem is I already have one and that's the one I want to use. Looks like I have the same situation on my iphone. Any guidance? Thanks.

The only option I'm being given is to create an lCloud account.
Any guidance? Thanks.

The last thing you want is a second iCloud account. Try logging out and back in in System Preferences. If that doesn't work, I'd get AppleCare on the line.

I want to install a third operating system on my macbook pro. I already have windows and i want install unix or linux in there. Is it possible??

I want to install a third operating system on my macbook pro. I already have windows and i want install unix or linux in there. Is it possible??

Yes, it's possible, but if your Windows system is on a Boot Camp partition then you have to first remove it. Then create however many partitions you want for the operating systems. You have OS X on one, so you need two more - one for Windows and one for Linux. You then install Windows and Linux separately to their respective partitions. Download rEFIt
Use it as the replacement bootloader so you can properly boot from each OS properly.

No. Standalone licenses use a platform-specific serial number. Only Creative Cloud is avialable on both platforms with the same license.

When I try to check "Mail" in iCloud prefs on my Mac, it says I need an iCloud email address. I already have one (and I get mail at it). How do I fix this?

When I try to check "Mail" in iCloud prefs on my Mac, it says I need an iCloud email address. I already have one (and I get mail at it). How do I fix this?

Have you reset the password recently for the email account?
A real simple fix usually is to delete the mail account (settings < mail contacts calendars, tap the affected account and choose delete at the bottom) Then re add the account.

OS X Server take the place of QuickMail and web host email?

Hi All,
I have been doing quite a bit of searching in the forums and with google.
Here is what our situation currently is:
Cable modem with dynamic IP address. Web hosting account with JaguarPC.com for our Internet email. Clients are all running with Leopard Mail app on either iMacs or MacBooks. We are using Mail app for the Internet messages (sending and receiving). That part works fine.
G5 tower running OS X Server 10.3 for all of our file serving needs.
We are using the latest/last version of QuickMail (not very recent!) for all LAN/Intranet messaging. QuickMail used to run fine in the OS 8 & 9 days, but each update of OS X causes it to be more unstable and unreliable.
What our goal is would be this:
Same Internet connection (cable modem + dynamic IP). Same web host. BUT, we would like to have our OS X Server (10.3) take the place of QuickMail AND use the Mail app for both the Internet messaging and all of the LAN/Intranet messaging.
Is this possible? If so, if you would be so kind, could you throw some hints, tips and or links our way to help set this up.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Troy

Out of the box, no, you can't do this.
The internal mail is easy - you can do whatever you like on your own network. The issue is in running external mail.
There are all kinds of issues in running external mail on a dynamic IP address, mostly as a result of spam (many ISPs, including all the big guys will not accept mail from dynamic IP addresses because it's likely spam).
That's not to say you can't run a mail server per se, but if half your mail doesn't get to the recipient (and you can't predict which ones will), it's hardly viable.
You do have options, though. First you could configure your mail server to relay all outgoing mail through your ISP. Since you're on their network they are obliged to accept mail from you and they'll forward it to the appropriate domain via one of their mail servers. That takes care of outgoing mail.
Incoming mail is a whole different issue. On a dynamic IP address there's no way to tell other domains where your mail server is. The typical solution for this is to have some other mail server (on a static address) accept your mail and hold it for your mail server that periodically checks in and retrieves the mail via ETRN.
Ironically, QuickMail does this very well (it really was one of its strengths). Postfix (the mail server included in Mac OS X Server) can do this, but it's not supported via Server Admin (the GUI used to configure the server), so you'll have to get under the hood and configure it - as well as find an upstream mail server that supports ETRN.
For postfix, check the Postfix ETRN guide. For the mail server, ask your ISP if they support ETRN (you'll likely need to get to at least second-level support since the first-level folks probably can't even spell it ).

Lion and web-hosting

If I upgrade to Lion from Snow Leopard, must I find a new web host, such as GoDaddy, for my iWeb-designed websites?

My iweb.app got moved over with my upgrade to Lion. Still available on older iLife DVD only.
iWeb is no longer being supported however. MobileMe.com is being phased out as well and replaced by iCloud.com.
Sooner or later you will have to find new host, whether you continue to use the depreciated iWeb.app would be up to you.

Firefox does not recognize that I already have add-ons installed (prompts to install add-ons I already have installed AND turned on). Why?

Add-ons, which are updated and already installed and running (and have been for some time), seem to think they are not added. When looking at my add-ons in the Tools menu, they are listed as enabled. However, clicking to go to their information page on the web (where you can read reviews, and where you originally chose to add them to Firefox), the "add to firefox" button is available. (As opposed to some sort of "already installed" or "uninstall" or "reinstall" button) I tested the button to see if pressing it would THEN tell me "you already have this", but it didn't! It started downloading the plug-in I already have! What is going on?

hello Amsuko, the "+ Add to Firefox" button on addons.mozilla.org and similar sites is just a normal static element on the website. websites don't have the possibility to query which extensions a user has already installed (this would probably be seen as a privacy/security breach). in case you install an addon that is already present on your system, it will simply get replaced...

"contacts and calendars cannot be synced" I just want my music, I already have contacts and calendars.

I got an iPhone 5c a little under a month ago, and haven't been able to put music on it since then. iTunes keeps trying to sync contacts and calendars, which I already have in place on the phone (via iCloud). However, when my I plugged my moms brand new 5c up to put music on it, it worked perfectly! I've compared our settings, and everything is the same. Please tell me what to do! I have the latest updates on both devices, and iTunes.

With my fingers crossed I uninstalled the updated iTunes that led to the problem. Then went to the iTunes.com site to download the full version. After the install was finished I connected the iPod and it detected and synced the iPod without any further issues. I don't get the error, Contacts and calendars cannot be synced on the iPod "%1$S", any more.
