Comments and Podcasts

Can some help me get the comments and pod-cast features to work without using a .Mac site?

For comments, you will use the iComment/Haloscan combo. Read about it here...
http://web.mac.com/cbrantly/iWeb/Software/iComment.html
I think this works better and is much more configurable than the Apple commenting system anyway. You can also use iComment to add the StatCounter hit counter, since the Apple hit counter won't work without .Mac either.
As far as your Podcast goes, everything should function just fine on a non-.Mac server. When you do the "Publish to Folder" routine, though, you need to type in your webserver directory into the URL field so that iWeb can form the Podcast RSS.xml feed file for you. For example, if your host domain name is http://www.mydomain.com that's what you'll need to enter.
Then when you go to upload your site, make sure that you upload the two things inside the folder where you published to. Those two things should be the index.html file and a folder with your site name. Just add these two items to your FTP program for upload and upload them into the same directory on your server so that they are sitting next to one another.

Viewing new comments on blogs and podcasts

Hello,
So, I open up iweb and the symbol with the number pops up on the iweb icon(which from what I've gathered is the "new comments"). Is there a way to just check the new comments, or do I have to go through my site and find them one by one. I allow comments on my pictures(as well as my blog and podcast) and I have a lot of pictures, so going through one by one to find comments doesn't seem to make much sense because it would take forever.
Thanks for the help.
Jimmy

I just spent a lot of time trying to figure this out myself, but I finally did.
In iWeb, look to the left side of the page names in the left hand column. You will see a blue dot next to any page with new comments somewhere within. If the comment is for a blog entry, the blue dot will be next to the main blog page. Click on "entries" under that and look for the blue dot to the left of the blog entry titles.
If the comment is on a photo, there will be a little comment icon on all photos where comments have been left. The icon is hard to see and there's no apparent way to tell which photo might have new comments that I can see, bu it's there. The icon is a little white bubble in the bottom right hand corner of the photo -- it's a bit hard to see.

I have created a PDF and password protected it for view. However, when reading the PDF in Adobe Reader app on the iPad the commenting and annotation options are not available. Is there a way to allow commenting and annotation in the app while password protecting the document?

Is there a setting that needs to be set to allow the annotation features? I set password protection to open and then password for editing and set it to Any except page extraction, but it still did not give the annotation option

This might be a simple question. On those sites that do not differentiate between models when on the internet I.e. Facebook when after your comment and you cannot hit "enter" on an iPad for examp. And speed is slow to connect. What is = to post?

This might be a simple question. On those sites that do not differentiate between CRT, laptop, tablet etc. such as an iPad Mini and using the Facebook site fir example when going to post a comment and you do not have a enter button on the IPad and the speed is slow how do you get your comments to post if we do not have a enter button?

I don't have facebook so I cannot answer but for your personal security, I have asked the hosts to remove your e-mail address. It is very unwise to publish this.

ITunes plays videos and podcasts when I click on music.

Hi all I have a problem.
when i click on music in the left menu. I notice when playign through my music set to randome that i get all media including podcasts, mpe books and other things that i woul dnot expect to be showing. I just want to randomly cycle through my music not listen to the books and podcasts etc.
is there a way to resove this issue.
OS: OSX 10.9.2, Mavericks
Itunes: 11.1.5 (s) 64-bit
Thanks for any ideas, tips, tricks and all you wish to share to help resolve this.
Edit: A good way to fix this would be able to select the type of media so it shows up in the right place. eg when importing or editing the album, file, cd podcast etc be able to select what type of media it is eg music, video, podcast, books and have the catogries show. only in what is selected. I have not come accross this feature.

See:
iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
You may need a computer app like the free HandBrake to convert the format to one compatible with the iPod.

Feature request: better tools for commenting and editing text

We currently use a comments-enabled Acrobat workflow with InDesign to track changes to our large catalog project. Was hoping to move our team over to CS Live, but currently the commenting tools are sub-par, and not accurate enough for extensive text editing. My request would be to imitate the text editing functionality of Acrobat:
In CS Live online:
- allow users to be able to copy selected text. (This is useful when a reviewer wants to be able to modify a sentence or paragraph. It's a headache now to have to retype the sentence prior to making modifications)
- Ability to highlight text and hit "delete" to mark text as deleted, or highlight and type over to indicate replaced text
- Ability to click to insert text, and have the comment appear with the inserted text designation (little blue carat like in Acrobat)
- ability to highlight a section of text
In InDesign:
- ability to copy the text in a comment and NOT copy all the other extraneous meta data. (Currently, if you click "copy text", it will copy the comment along with all the details about the comment. For example, "- Amy Stewart [10.06.11 at 12:56 PM]"
- ability to see in InDesign the EXACT part of the text that needs to be modified. Right now, the red box outlines the general area. The CS Review panel shows a tiny thumbnail with black highlight over the area of text that needs to be changed, but unfortunately, there's no way to zoom in on it, so you're stuck having to toggle between InDesign and the online review, where it's possible to zoom. (This diminishes the utility of the CS Review panel.)
If you were able to incoroprate all the commenting functionality of Acrobat, I think you'll have a winner. But right now, we're going to have to stick with Acrobat as it's the only way to easily modify text.

Sorry if I might be stating the obvious (but at least I was such a *dummy* once that I needed this explicitely):
In order to move the sequence of images per drag&drop in grid view you need to
Put the sort order in the bottom toolbar to "user order" (toggle visibility with letter T if not displayed)
Grab an image from within its thumbnail, not from its border-cell.
When you move around you see a vertical black thick line wandering in between images where you would be able to drop it
Put the images first into a collection in case they should be spread across multiple folders.
This is the reason why most often from a filter result you cannot re-arrange.
Still sometimes it does not work as I want, but can *be persuaded*, i.e. I repeat the same trial after first moving to another collection, then return back. I can't nail it down sufficiently to file a bug.
For an automated sorting according to filename (chosse that setting finally in toolbar) you could rename the photos in place, without exporting & re-importing. Just select them and hit <F2> to bring up the renaming dialog like possible during import.
+1 vote from me, as I am neither satisfied with the responsiveness of moving folders within LR e.g. from laptop hard disk to NAS.
Apart from that I try not to build much on my folder structure, just break them into manageable quantities and have a quick "diary-overview" by using naming convention "YYYY-MM-DD description of event" (pictures of up to 4 cameras go inside, unique filenames for Canons achieved by renaming during import). For all the rest I prefer to build (smart) collections.

How can I sync both Music files and Podcasts to my Ipod shuffle 4th gen?

I have been trying to do this for a very long time. I own an Ipod shuffle 4th generation and I want to be able to listen to music, podcasts, etc without having to switch between the different formats using Itunes. Everytime I try to sync music and podcasts to my Ipod, it will only play one of the two types but not both. I have plenty of space on my Ipod but it just won't sync music and podcasts together. I have tried using Smart playlists but whenever I try to add the different types of media, it shows nothing in the playlist. Any help with this would be appreciated.

If you are using automatic syncing, you need to set up syncing on the shuffle's Music tab and Podcasts tab in iTunes...
Select your shuffle in iTunes. There is a bar of "tabs" (starting with Summary).
Click on Music there. This Music tab is where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the shuffle. Sync Music is checkmarked, if you use automatic syncing. Your entire iTunes Music library (plus podcasts) probably will not fit, so you can select to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Below that, make a selection of songs to sync by checkmarking playlists, artists, albums, and/or genres. For example, if you want to keep it simple, create a new playlist in iTunes and put ALL songs you want on the shuffle on that playlist. Back on the Music tab, find and checkmark only that one playlist under Playlists as your selection of songs.
Click on the Podcasts tab next. This is where you tell iTunes how to sync podcasts to the shuffle. Sync Podcasts is checkmarked. Make you selection of podcast episodes below.
When you click Apply, your selection of songs and podcasts sync to the shuffle. Going forward, all changes to your iTunes library that relate to your selection on the two tabs sync automatically when you connect the shuffle, or when you click Sync.
When you use the shuffle, podcasts do not play from the default All Songs list. To play podcast episodes, you use the VoiceOver feature to select the podcast from the playlist menu.
This document has information about setting up and using VoiceOver on a shuffle

You can also play podcast episodes from a playlist. If you put podcast episodes on a playlist, that playlist needs to be checkmarked on the Podcasts tab, where is says Include Episodes from Playlists. You can then use VoiceOver to select that playlist from the playlist menu. To play podcast episodes from a playlist, the shuffle's power switch must be in the play-in-order (middle) position. The podcast episodes will then play in playlist order (as you organized them in iTunes before syncing).

ITunes loses my entire library with artwork, playlists and podcasts every time I close the program. Any advice very welcome

iTunes loses my entire library with artwork, playlists and podcasts every time I close the program. Upon restarting it takes at least 15 minutes to rebuild the library and podcasts and a lot longer to replace the artwork, I also lose playlists. I would really welcome some feedback and assistance here and am losing faith in the Apple product. Since iTunes has been updated to version 11 it seems to have caused a lot of issues for many people. I am hopeful of a reply and a resolution. I have approx. 1200 albums at just under 90 Gb. Thanks in advance for any help.

Ditch AVG (at this stage it really does seem to be the problem for some people) and install Microsoft Security Essentials...

My iphone 4s deleted all of my books, music, and podcasts from my phone and now will not allow me to put them back on there.

As stated in the title, I was redownloading old purchases. After transferring a tv show onto my iphone it would not allow me to transfer another one. I wasn't able to locate the show on my phone, so then I checked my music. All of my music and podcasts were missing. My books were showing up at first, but then as soon as I closed out of one that I was reading and clicked on a different one they all vanished as well. I tried dragging on a song, a book, a show, and I kept getting the circle with the line through it. I have no idea what to do. My phone has always been set up to manually manage music and videos. When I selected to sync all music it still wouldn't do anything.
I've also recently, within the past 4 hours, uninstalled and reinstalled itunes because it kept crashing when I was trying to download my old purchases. I've done it before and haven't had any issues with it deleting anything before. I'm in the process of restoring my phone in the hopes that this will work, but I don't know if it will.
Anyone out there that can help me?

iPhone 3G is Old technology. When it was launched it had iOS 2.0. Currently, the highest it can go is iOS 4.2.1 and therefore can not handle many newer applications. As you have recorded, it is giving good service for which it has been designed.
Needless to say, if you want to use applications as stated, you must have at least 3GS, whose current is iOS 6.1.2. On the lighter side; Rather than updating iOS they are asking you to update iPhone (Technology). Cheers

I updated my iPod Touch to 6.0.1. after much prompting. Now my music is gone! (along with apps, photos and podcasts). After syncing a bunch of times some of it came back, but not all of it. How odd is that? How can I get my music back on it??

I updated my iPod Touch to 6.0.1. -- after much prompting from iTunes. Now my music is GONE (along with apps, photos and podcasts). After syncing a bunch of times some of it came back, but not all of it. How odd is that? How can I get my music back?? I'm really bummed! Everything shows in iTunes, but it's not synching right. So glad I updated. NOT.

Go to iTunea>Preferences>Devices and see if there is a backupright at the time you did the update. Then try restoring from that backup. If the apps are in your iTunes library, any app data will be restored to the iPod.
When restoring from an iOS 4 (or later) backup, if the device had a passcode set, iTunes will ask if you want to set a passcode (and remind you that you had protected your device with a passcode). iTunes will not ask you to set a passcode when restoring from iOS 3.x and prior backups.
Therefore, remembe the passcode that you enter this time.
It appears that if you restore from a backup, that backup is not subseqyently overwritten by the next backup.

Acrobat Pro 9 - Comments and Stickies vanish and reappear when clicked!

Very strange problem, I'm having. If I add comments, stickies or callouts to a PDF, everything is great UNTIL I click off of the item being created. The item immediately disappears with no indication that anything is there (ie: a sticky "bubble" icon).
I know these items are still in the file because if I click in the area where a sticky was created, it instantly reappears, but only temporarily. But the minute I click again on something else or off the sticky itself, all comments and stickies disappear again. Same thing with callout objects.
So they ARE in the file - I have verified it. I can save and reopen the same PDF in Adobe Reader, and everything appears as expected - all of these elements are visible all the time, and respond as expected. Just absolute wackiness in Acrobat Pro 9.
This was never a problem in Pro 8 or earlier. I don't have Pro X to try.
All preferences for comments have been checked and tested. All comments were set to "show". Toggling the settings does not help. It happens in any pdf file being modified in Acrobat Pro.
The comment List does show me the full list and contents of the stickies, but in the main window - nothing shows up until I blindly find the right spot and click!
Very frustrating, indeed!
Working with a relatively new 27" Core i5 iMac with 8GB RAM running OS X 10.6.6.
Any ideas?

Try using a program like Onyx or Applejack to clean all user caches. You can also try to remove the Acrobat 9 preference file. It may have become corrupt.

Allow user to fill in a fillable pdf but disallow adding comments and annotation

Hi there. I have a fillable pdf created by livecycle designer. I want to let users fill in the form but prevant them adding comments and annotatons to the form. I cannot reset the above requirements in form property - form security if I have already set a password and allowed user to fill in the form. Can I user javascript to that effect during the document loading?
Thanks.

Hi,
If you save the form as a Dynamic XML Form in the save-as dialogue, then the user will not be able to apply comments. They can only do this in flat or static PDF forms.
See here: http://assure.ly/gYyYc2

Drawing field?
Hope that helps,

Creating Electronic Binders Using PDF Portfolio - Commenting and Highlighting

For a few years now I have been using Portfolios to create electronic versions of binders. Users want to be able to review, search, highlight and comment within the PDFs - and each have a copy with their comments. Security is also a big deal. My main question is: Is using Adobe Portfolios the best solution for making an electronic binder, or does Adobe or another vendor offer a better one? Recently I saw a product called GDoc Binder that looks promising. For now using the Portfolios is the best solution I know of.
Problems with the current solution: Right now I have to create multiple copies of the document to allow users to comment and highlight on their own copy. File size can be problematic - if it's too big searching can take a long time even after I index the file. Updating and adding sections is problematic since if you update a page or file you could lose their comments, and so I have to update multiple copies of the same file. I know you can export and import comments but that can be complex/time consuming. One question I have: Is there a search and/or report on comments and highlights from the full Portfolio rather than just one at a time?
Since Adobe Pro X I have had to use a custom template from PracticalPDF.com to recreate the list navigation of Adobe Pro 9. I did see another post saying that the use of Flash with Portfolios mean that it's day are numbered. Question: I am curious if this is true, and if Portfolios using Flash are becoming obsolete, what Adobe Pro would use for an alternative?
Thank you in advance for any insight and answers - it is greatly appreciated.
