Asked for an HTML site; got an ASP site instead - how to proceed?
I am a web coordinator - I know HTML and CSS. I've used server side includes. I've cribbed some Javascript for pop-ups and rel="external." But I'm really a writer who manages a few sites - they were already designed, I simply manage and build new pages, using Dreamweaver 8.
My department hired an outside company to design a new site for us. We made it clear what we really wanted was art - I could handle the rest, as I'm proficient in HTML and CSS. We worked closely with the designer-it looks great, but went through a couple project managers, and something fell through the cracks.
They sent us the files - they're in ASP instead of HTML. I didn't realize how big of a problem this was until I tried to follow the firm's "simple" save-as directions to create a new page and it all went to hell. This is very different. They had to talk with my server admin about something IIS. I can't see anything in design view.
Reading through the forums, most questions about ASP are from 2008 and earlier, and suggestions for those who don't know ASP pretty much come down to, "Step away from the web site!" It looks like this is something beyond my current skill set.
The new web site is for homeowners and gardeners - it's articles and links. No databases.
I'm so lost, it's hard to even know what I should be asking, but here's a stab:
Can I "break" these files, taking the design but rebuilding as HTML pages? (There is a style sheet.) We've alread paid for the site. They've charged us again just for a couple emails and one phone call to clear up the IIS thing. We're a tiny department in a state-funded agency - our budget is close to nothing.
I'm pretty sure it contains asp code, but I've attached a plain text document with the first twenty lines of the home page.
Link to the page as they've delivered it: http://gardeningsolutions.ifas.ufl.edu/solutions/default.asp
My hacked-up HTML version: http://gardeningsolutions.ifas.ufl.edu/test/gs_index_solutions.html
(Excuse the "search" box jammed in there; they forgot to put one in so I just pasted our old one...)
They gave us a style sheet and the necessary graphics - I could simply work with those, right? Taking out all the .asp stuff?
We don't sell anything. I'm the only person with access to the site. There is no database. I can't think of a good reason why we need our site in ASP. We just wanted it to look pretty. I don't do pretty.
It does look like I could stand to learn some Javascript and move on from there - dynamic features can be added to an HTML site, right?

when i ask for Authorizeed computer i got the message " make sure your computer' date is set correctly and that it accepts cookies from the itunes stores " how can i solve this problem please .
Ok, so I just worked out that itunes communicates through your browser so it's a cookie in the browser not PC direct that fixes this. Bit of a convoluted route but for me it was IE>Internet setting>privacy>sites, then allow all activity from apple.com/itunes.

I always have trouble with my mailbox. It is always asking for my passwords but everything has been verified. How can I get it to stop doing it and start working????
There is only one thing that happens -- the Server does not respond.
Your mac concludes that you must have entered the wrong password. That may happen once, but then other issues become more likely, and it keeps asking for a new password.
Sometimes the Server is down for maintenance. Sometimes something is configured wrong. Some services do this on purpose to get you to use WebMail (pick up your Mail with your Browser) so they can show you some ads. -
I have Adobe reader installed. However, I am unable to open some files because it is asking for Adobe's approval to open the files. How do I do this please?
That message is NOT from Adobe, and has nothing to do with Adobe's approval for anything.
Quite the opposite: Adobe Reader is NOT YET RUNNING, Adobe aren't involved. Some other app or program is putting out that message. Have you tried giving that permission? -
Why is it asking for my billing info but the app is free how do I turn this off?
Why is it asking for my billing info but the app is free how do I turn this off?
possibly to verify age or perhaps the app has "add on" features that cost and they would need to know where to bill these to if you wanted them
I know you can store your billing details, even a credit card number, securely within your iTunes account to prevent you from getting this prompt for future apps -
I am going through a divorce and she has the computer. I'm trying to tranfer my music to a new computer but for about 100 songs its asking for her authorization password that I dont have. How can I get these songs transfered or can I?
It sounds like two Apple accounts were used in the purchase of songs, yours and hers. Assuming she won't give you her password, you're kinda stuck. For $129 or so you can repurchase them all.
By the way, if she has the computer and it has your account info in it, you ought to change your password. -
I just updated the software on my iPad2 and now it's asking for my passcode but I never set one. How can I fix this?
I fixed it!!
While not connected to any USB cable I put the iPad in recovery mode.
To do that turn the iPad completely off. Press and hold the home button while turning the iPad on, once you see the apple logo release the home button.
Turn on your OS X mac after it boots up connect the USB from iPod to Mac. iTunes should start. If not launch itunes.
Perform the factory restore process paying attention to all of the screen message windows. Then set up the ipad like it was new. -
I set up an apple id many years ago when itunes was established. Within the past year or so, Apple has changed to using email address as user id. My problem is that I have many applications that I can not update due to the fact that it is asking for the password of the old ID. It does not exist anymore. Any ideas on how to get the new apple id associated with the application without deleting the application. Several of these apps I purchased.
You can not merge accounts.
Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them. -
My new iPad asks for the PIN of my MacBook to sync. How do I find the PIN?
how can I sync all my devices? Older MacBook, iPhone5 (these two sych via wi-fi) I want my new iPad to do the same but it asks for my MacBook PIN number. No idea what that is. I have it syncing with iTunes now but only pics/music. I want some of my files on the iPad as well. I'm a writer...want to use iPad then sync it to MacBook....thanks for any help. (I'm not too tech savvy)
I don't believe it's asking for your "MacBook PIN number."
It would be very helpful if you would post exactly what you are doing when you get asked for information, and the exact wording of the "PIN" request. -
In setting up my the new iphone OS, iMessage and Facetime asked for a password associated with a long dead acount ID. I was able to change the account associated with Facetime but iMessage won't let me change to my current one, therefore not allowing me to use iMessage. Anyone else have this problem?
Thanks!See if this Link offers any enlightenment...

Mail keeps asking for password, over and over and over again. How to fix?
How do I stop this behavior of Mail?
I tried disableing my account and resetting it up, but it won't let me do that either. I use Mac OS 10.6.8.OK. When you say that Mail doesn’t save the password, are you basing this solely on the fact that Mail keeps asking for it? Or is there something else that makes you believe Mail doesn’t save the password?
Open /Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access, choose Keychain First Aid from the application menu, and proceed to repair the keychain. If that doesn’t work, try removing the password entry from the keychain and let Mail create it again the next time it asks for it. -

My daughter was updating her iphone to the iOS6 and everything went great. So, she was going to update mine. She used her itunes acct. instead of mine and it downloaded all her music and apps onto my iphone. Now when it asks for me to enter my password, it has her email address. How can I fix this???
plug your iphone into your computer with your itunes account signed in to update it, (if you want your own apps ect.) if all you want to do is change accounts signed in on the iphone than simply open settings and scroll down until you see itunes and app stores touch the apple id tip top and signout, sign yourself in. any apps she has "purschased" that you have not.. i imagine will just cease to work.
if you both share the same contacts, it won't be a big deal, however if you have work and her shcools numbers ect, and she just has mom/dad/buddies you may have double numbers and apps and what not by doing this, so if it does become a mess.. just get on itunes log into your account by clicking the store menu in itunes and going down to the account id on the bottom of that menu and just restore your phone. -
I am trying to synch things from my mac to my iphone. My Apple screen name is apparently [email protected] but my iphone thinks my screenname is xxxxxx. I can download things on my imac with [email protected] but I am unable to update things on my iphone because it comes up with xxxxxxxx (without the aol.com) asking for my password.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Start here (change country if necessary) and navigate to 'Password and Security', reset your security questions using the link provided, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
If that doesn't help, you don't receive a reset email or you don't have a rescue address, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support. -
