Are other people's sites suffering from slow .Mac (IWeb) download speeds?

Here is the site:
http://web.mac.com/laneos/iWeb/The%20Triad%20Institute/Triad%20Home.html
Several people have remarked on the slow download speeds, especially the top links on pages other than the homepage.
Please send reactions/advice on how this can be remedied. Thanks!

I don't think .Mac is the problem. The problem is that Apple chose to use the PNG format for all graphics on your page, instead of the standard web graphic format: JPEG. This means that images, such as your rollover links in the top navigation (these are graphics, not text) are much, much larger than they need to be as far as file size. Anyone accessing your site on dialup or other narrowband connection is going to find your site takes a long, long time to load. Every graphic on your pages is being converted to PNG, which is an uncompressed format. There is NOTHING you can do about this at the moment, except Complain to Apple using this Feedback Form.
Don't just complain on this forum, because Apple doesn't officially monitor or respond to user's posts here. But they do promised to read the feedback you provide on the aforementioned form.
This issue of large files and slow download speeds caused me to totally abandon iWeb one week after I bought and started using it. My wife created a beautiful family site, but I pulled it down after testing on a dialup connection. It totally choked the browser--just on a simple home page. A friend waited 8 minutes for the home page to load, and then gave up. I'm just not prepared to anger my visitors to that extent.

How can I stop other people copying my images from my web site.

How can I stop other people copying my images from my web
site.
I use dreamweaver CS3 for the mac

both are a waste of time. Fornication with a leaky condom.
Pointless and not
worth the effort. Or worse!
the obfuscation JavaScript will get the site to not be
listed in any search
engines because they can't "see" the page or any links on it.
You would be
"protecting" the images but no one would find them.
And all of those obfuscation JS things can be reverse
engineered. In most
cases- it's not worth it to prove it can be broken other than
to prove it
can be done. The images are nothing special in almost any
site using one of
those $29.95 applications.
Have you done the basics? Turned off directory browsing or
put a default
index page in every folder? A few years ago i ran across a
site with one of
those block right click scripts on it. Dumb curiosity- opened
a picture, and
looked around the directory. All open directories. A block
right click
script and every folder on the site was open.

Nuff said. The blocking script made me curious enough to poke
around the
directories.

Sept 4, 2014 My iPhone is not connecting to the Hotmail servers. My other email accounts work on it but all the hotmail one comes up with is "The connection to the server failed". Are other people experiencing the same issues?

If your Hotmail account worked previously and it suddenly stopped and gave you that message, then it is likely a problem at th Hotmail end. Did you check the Hotmail website or contact Hotmail directly to see if they are experiencing problems?

Why are my pinned top sites disappearing from the top sites page in Mavericks, after they have been pinned? Very appreciative of any help. This is making me crazy.

If I want to delete other people's iCloud accounts from my phone will it interfere with the backups on their phones?

Hello Stacey140
You should not have an issues with removing accounts and messing with others users backup. As long as you are not removing the main account that is yours that you use for back up, everything will be fine.

HT201407 Are other people having difficulty having AT&T switch service to the new phone?

Are other people having dificulty with AT&T switching their service over to the new iPhone 5?

We got two new Iphone 5's yesterday. Mine was set up with no problems but my husbands got set up but won't activate...says no service. spent 2 hours on with att tech support Friday night and went to the store today. Its been over 24 hours now and it is still not working. Worst part--it also deactivated his iphone 4 so he has no phone now!!! We have reset the network and soft and hard booted it over 100 times now. This is crazy! ATT is sending me to apple tomorrow to get it fixed but that is going to be 48 hours with no service at all. Epic fail aT&T!

While playing my albums in iTunes it has just started playing the first song but will not progress through the other songs on the album. Did I accidentally change setting or are other people having the same trouble? thanks

Hi there Sing Me A Song,
You may have changed the Up Next list in iTunes. Take a look at the article below for more information on the Up Next lists and how to edit it.

I feel that other people use my computer from the outside without my permission. How do we know?

Thanks for your help

First thing to do is find the information you received on your internet service, which should have the info on logging in to your router itself. Login, usually from a browser like Safari, and find where to change the admin password, not the netowrk or WiFi password. Change the admin password from the factory default, and write it down so you don't forget it...if there is ever a problem with your service you have to have that.
Once the router is secure, on your iMac how do you operate? Did you just set it up out-of-the box without adding user accounts?
With the router secure there is little risk of an intruder using your equipment...but it would be worth it to change your network password, especially the wireless part of the network, and to check to see what security method is being used. The most secure is WPA2.

I can't hear on Facetime for Mac and other people can't hear me. I recently downloaded Boom and I'm not sure whether it's the problem or not.

Remove it according to the developer's instructions and see whether there's an improvement. Back up all data before making any changes.

Hi, are other people still experiencing chipped scuffed iphone 5 brand new just out of box?

Im an old apple user who likes keeping all his devices up to date. I ordered and iPhone 5 white and unfortunately it was chipped from 3 different places right out of the box. Now come my replacement white iphone 5 which is supposed to be fine. It has barely been a few hours i took it out of the box and there is a small chip on the screen. Note: chips on the first phone were on the aluminium frame where the screen seem is. Im writing this review just disappointed in my trust for the company thinking i will let it slide and keep using my chipped phone till a better android phone comes in and this one breaks properly. Any other people having this issue? I know getting two defective devices is beyond bad luck. I have pictures of the damages along with the imei if anybody wants to see?

This is not a site for reviews, there are dozens of such sites out there... if you want to right a review (you have not do so yet), go there and write one.

Does it matter? Will that make your issue go away or make you feel better?
Take the device to an Apple store and exchange it or contact Apple Customer support to arrnage an exchange.

We're all users like yourself and frankly I doubt anyone here really cares. Even if they did, all they can do is empathize with you.

Thought my computer was acting up- but I see there are other people with issues with the extension mgr. Hope it's up and running soon!

Well, I thought my computer was acting up, but I see there are others with extension manager issues! Any ideas when it will be accessible again?

The flashing folder/question mark means the computer can't find a volume to start up from. See this Apple article for steps to take. But since it was running very slowly, I won't be all that encouraging that this can be resolved using those steps. It probably means the internal hard drive died. The slowness may have been a warning it was about to fail.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1440
PS>>> I also have an external hard drive if that helps!
Well, it may help enormously if you had all your data backed up there to restore from, if it is clear you need a new internal drive. What kind of backup was it, a clone or Time Machine?

Can't Find Server at... error -- only one site, works from non-Macs fine

Greetings:
I have been getting a "Can't Find Server at www.teocommunications.com" error in Firefox for over a month now. I thought initially that it was a problem with the DNS entries and maybe the record had not proliferated though the DNS servers of my ISP or something of that nature. This is not the case.
I have tried to bring my site up in Safari and it yields the same result.
Did an nslookup, and everything resolves fine. Every once in awhile the site comes up on my Mac, but most of the time it gives the error. At all times, if you try to go to it from a Windows machine or my smart phone it works fine 100% if the time. My wife's Windows Vista machine with Firefox brings it up fine 100% of the time (she is on the very same network). I can get it to work for some reason if I totally reboot the Mac or reset the router (but the router is obviously not the problem)... it has to be something in the Mac OS (10.6 and 10.5) that is going on. I have eliminated all other possible problems. Curiously enough, it seems to also be a Leopard (not just Snow Leopard) issue... I can reproduce the error at my school (which is on a totally different network than my home) on the Mac Pro Intels they have which are still on Leopard.
I am on the latest version of Snow Leopard on a brand new Mac Mini.
This problem is only with my site (that I know of) but again it happens ONLY on Macs with Leopard or Snow Leopard. I am very annoyed by this problem and because it is my professional work site, it is imperative that I find the solution and soon.
Hope someone can help.
APPLE, please look into possible configuration or DNS issues in Leopard/Snow Leopard, as before I posted here, I did try several 'fixes' for issues like this for Firefox before I noticed that Safari was getting the same issue and ANY OTHER PLATFORM sees my page just fine!

Hi Guys:
It sometimes works from my Mac as well. I can get it to load if I reboot the Mac and then in a few reloads it is back to the same error.
I did try openDNS as well and it did not still load. I can pretty much guarantee that it is not the DNS records, it is something going on between my Mac (or the Pros at school). Other sites from my same host work fine, my domain is setup exactly the same. They do use ISPConfig... and it could be something with that program, but I can not seem to confirm any problems there.
I reset my router and the site is currently loading again on my Mac, but I can tell you it will be throwing the error in the very near future because that is one fix that worked before and it worked exactly two loads when I switched to a different wireless access point that is not my router.
SO, the fact that it loads one to up to twenty times on someone's Mac is not enough to reproduce the problem. It takes several reloads and then the problem magically re-appears. This is why the fact that it is working right now on my machine is not good enough to call it fixed.
Try to reload my site several times and see if it gives you the error.
I have (as I stated) tried a lot of what is being suggested here and re-tried it, but nothing fixes it for very long
I appreciate the help and hopefully we can figure out why the situation exists.
Thanks for the help so far and please feel free to keep suggesting ideas, but for reference I have tried:
1. modifying settings in Firefox (although it does not matter what browser I use,the result is always the same)
2. resetting the router and DSL modem
3. modifying the /etc/hosts file on my Mac
4. dscacheutil -flushcache
5. using openDNS instead of my ISP (which is AT&T)
6. removing the DNS settings and using the router settings
7. turning off airport and back on after 30 seconds
8. renewing my DHCP clients
9. Signning onto a different wireless access point (which is actually a new ISP that I am going with and so they are a totally different network and subnet).. they are setup all over town with wireless access. -- pretty cool actually.
None of this seems to fix the problem loading only my site. Since I do have access to the hosting provider (I work with them)... I have done some things on the hosting side too. All to no avail.

Suspected Malware slowing computer and Download speed?

I've done a little research and found out that certain malware on macs can be obtained through certain downloading sites. My computer is becoming slower and slower and download speed is being affected by something ( tested speed 2.3MB/s but the speed im getting is 40-100Kb/s ) both of which seem to be traits of malware or other viruses? Download speeds used to be higher and are still high other macs on the same connection. Ive tried downloading and running BitDeffender Virus Scanner and it found 4 problems, 2 of which where deleted, 1 quarantined and the last roams my computer free, but nothing improved anyway. Is my iMac infected, if so how to i remove the infection?
( its only 5 months old and is running 10.10.1 if that helps)

Please provide an EtreCheck report of your computer. However the first thing I will tell you is to uninstall (following the developers instructions) any antivirus, cleaning or other third party maintenance applications. Not only are these 100% useless some (most antivirus apps) tend to create more problems than they solve. There are zero viruses for OS X, however there is some malware out there that antivirus will not find. To avoid the small amount of malware out there takes just a small amount of common sense.
Common sense primer!
NEVER download from a torrent! Next do not fall for any popups, ads, e-mails or phone calls that advise your computer has been compromised. These are SCAMS!!!!!!! Next is do not download anything from a site you do not 100% trust. That's it, it is that simple.
Finally keep your Mac up-to-date!!!

Very Slow HH 5 Download Speed

Hello,
Please can someone give me some advice. My broadband speed is incredibly slow. I had a fault with the phone line, which BT repaired, however, subsequent to that, my download speed has not been above 1.85mps. I have unplugged everything from the HH, rewired, and still no joy. This has been happening for over a week now.
My speed test results are as below:-
Can anyone shed any light on what the problem might be?
Thanks

Airport slows down my download speeds

I have an old Airport Express, appr 5-6 yrs. It is slowing my download speeds from 64.5 Mbps to 24 Mbps. Anything I can do?

Insure that there are no physical obstructions between the AirPort Express and your computer.
Temporarily, turn off the cordless phones to see if speeds improve.
The AirPort Express starts heading downhill after about 3 years of operation on average, so your Express may be showing its age.
As a last resort, reset the AirPort back to factory default settings and set it up again.
