Dot Mac top 5 hits has reset, pages still have counters ticking away...

Every now and then, I check www.mac.com (after having previously signed in) and check how many email messages and website hits I have. Something happened this morning so that the .mac page is reset and it's only keeping counts on pages I've created since then. However, the actual pages still contain counters and the counters increase as you'd expect.
http://web.mac.com/makentosh
Reloading pages will make it increment, but the only pages shown in .Mac are the two most recent ones.
Has anyone else seen this? Not a big deal as the counters still work, but I liked being able to tell which sites were hit the most without needing to actually visit them.

Held down option and did "Publish All to .Mac" and still shows the same few pages. My main page is now at 503, but won't show up in .Mac.
Add to that, .Mac has been sporadic today.

Disabled Top Hits, but new ones still show up

I have disabled "preload top hits" in safari, cleared history, have no bookmarks or favorites and yet random websites I visit once still show up a a a top hit when I type into the text box. Why is this happening and how can I get it to stop?

Not other than parental oversight. On the computer you can implement Parental Controls on a separate user account that they would use. You can then block certain websites. But you cannot do that on the iPad.
You could change your iTunes account such that they cannot access it in order to buy or download apps.

The charger is covered by the same one-year from date of purchase warranty as the iPhone...take it to an Apple store genius bar for examination and replacement.

Why does my mac use virtual memory when I still have free physical memory?

I have a 2011 i7 quad core mac, I was hoping it would scream. Most of the time it does. However when trying to edit within FCPX I get a very disappointing experience with many pauses and pin wheels if I don't close every single other program.
I have 8GB of physical memory and when i'm experiencing these problems I see that i still have 1-2 gb of physical memory free or inactive. At the same time FCPX is only using 2gb of memory. I just happened to keep an eye on the VM page in/outs and noticed them going up.
Right now i'm doing some browsing and emailing, that's about it.. its sat with over 4gb of memory free or inactive and yet still the page in/outs is still going up occasionally. It's currently at over 2 million page ins, and over 1 million page outs.
So with so much physical memory free why is this happening!? At the moment the mac feels nice and responsive, but if i start trying to use FCPX i'll start to experience these slowdowns, stalls... whenever i see these i see my main hdd is being accessed whilst the pinwheel is displayed.. I mean i get it, its VM, the hdd is too full, a bit fragmented perhaps, its stalling... but i've got gigs of memory sitting free or inactive... why wont the OS use it!!!
Would my experience improve if i took the plunge and got 16gb of memory instead of 8gb!?
Thanks for your help!

Because without virtual memory, managing computer RAM is a royal pain in the ...
Virtual memory cost you nothing, and gains you huge benefits, even if you do not notice it
What cost you is when you need more real RAM than is available, and things are thown out of RAM, either back to the original file it came from (Read Only information), or pushed out to the swapfiles (/var/vm/*). Then the system has to wait for slower disk access. But even this is better than not being able to run the apps until you quit something else.
(speaking as someone that starting his professional life working with 1" punch paper tape, 80 columns cards, 7-track and 9-track mag tapes, 1MB disks (you heard me right 1 Megabyte), etc..., and trust me when I tell you that virtual memory is a god send to software development).
There are a lot of problems running a modern operating system with out virtual memory. For example all the shared libraries and frameworks that provide services to an application would all need to be compiled into the application, which means every application gets bigger and instead of having a single copy of the shared library or framework, you would have dozens of copies wasting your RAM.
Without virtual memory, you would be required to find a contiguous chunk of RAM to run your application. Think of this like going out to dinner by yourself, you can find any available table, but if you go to dinner with your extended family, you need a table for 10 to 15, and if you are going to dinner with your high school graduation class, you will need hundreds of seats all next to each other and a very large table. In the later situations you have to wait until the resturante has enough contiguous space, which means you have to wait until other diners finish. There may be lots of empty tables, but they are not together, and your group wants/needs to sit together. Virtual memory allows gathering any 4K chunk of RAM, building a virtual memory map for all those random 4K chunks, and make it look like one big contiguous chunk of RAM, so you can run your application right away, no waiting.
Going back to shared libraries and frameworks. This code will need to have addresses resolved so they branch to the correct locations during execution, and it will need to have addresses resolved on where its program variables are located in RAM. Using virtual memory, you can local a shared object into RAM, then place it in everyone's virtual memory map at the exact same RAM address. This means everyone can use the exact same code, and since everyone is using it at the same RAM address, it makes life so much easier for the operating system (translation, less work, less wasted CPU time, faster execution).
When a program wants to grow, for example a web browser loading a web page (and its images) into RAM, it needs to allocate additional RAM. In the contiguous RAM model, you need to get control of the RAM that imediately following your program, but if that RAM is being used by someone else, you have to wait until that program goes away.
Virtual memory provides protection from another program looking at and modifying your program's RAM. Malware would just love for virtual memory to go away.
You want virtual memory. What you do not want is excessive paging activity.
If you are concerned, then you can launch Applicaitons -> Utilities -> Terminal. Once you have a terminal command prompt, enter the following command:
sar -g 60 100
which will tell you the number of 4k pages written to /var/vm/pagefile ever minute for 100 minutes (modify the numbers to suit your tastes). You can then go about your normal usage, and come back later to see how much you have been using the pagefiles. If you have mostly zeros, and an occasional small burst, this is noise, and not worth worrying about. If you have sustained pageout activity, with higher numbers, then you should either consider running less things all at the same time, or looking for an application that is being greedy with its memory use (or has a memory leak), OR get more RAM for your Mac if you need to do all those things at once.
But do not complain about virtual memory. Life would be much worse without it. Then again if you have a better idea, write a research paper, and get operating system vendors (as well as hardware vendors) to implement your ideas. I am serious, as I've seen many accepted computing ideas be overturned by good new ideas.

I am a new Mac user and I bought Pages and have no Idea where it is or how to use it?

I am a new Mac user and I bought the Pages APP and have no Idea where it is or how to use it? If I go into Iwork and click Pages it shows 3 documents that I have creates. THe only option I have is to download it. Then If I click it it opend in an app called Preview.
It is in me apps folder in Itunes. I expected it to be an app in my computer.

Pages for IOS and Pages for OSX are 2 different programs, buying one doesn't get you the other, go to the App Store (not iTunes) on your Mac and buy it.

So when I installed the most recent updates for microsoft office 2011 for mac, my ical info disappeared. Still have the info on my Office calendar but it's no longer on ical. It's also been removed from my phone. How can I get outlook to sync with ical

When I installed the recent updates for Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac, my iCal calendar was wiped out, as was the calendar on my iPhone. I'd rather use iCal than Office and was attempting to phase Office out altogether. Now, all of my information is on the Office calendar but not iCal. The iCloud version of my iCal calendar is not up to date. In any event, I couldn't figure out how to send that info to the iCal on my mac or my phone. How can I sync my Office calendar info to iCal? If that's not possible, how can I get my Office calendar to sync with my iPhone? All of my sync services are set up in iTunes and on my phone. This happened to me once before and I spent hours on the phone with Apple and on the web trying to work it out. I NEED MY CALENDAR!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!!!

As that's not an Apple product, you may get more help by using Microsoft's Office for Mac forums:
Office for Mac forums
The other concern I have is that Office 2011 requires an Intel-based Mac and you posted in the older iMac (pre-Intel or "PPC") forums. If you have an Intel-based iMac (Apple menu > About this Mac..." will say "Intel" if you do) then I think you'll get faster and more accurate ansers to other questiosn in the Apple forums for newer iMacs here:

My inbox has disappeared - I still have emails in all my other folders, but emails only frm midnight last night in inbox. How can I get my emails back

Yesterday evening Norton ran a scan and found a threat, not saying it was Mozilla Thunderbird I ran it. Following that all my inbox emails had disappeared. All other emails are still there, including trash and folders.
I have recd emails in inbox from midnight this morning.
None of the previous options offered have helped.

You may be able to recover something following these instructions.
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Thunderbird_:_FAQs_:_Anti-virus_Software#Recovering_a_quarantined_Inbox
Otherwise a restoring a recent profile backup is your best bet.
For the future don't let your anti-virus s/w scan your Thunderbird profile folder. It won't do you any good, as you found out the hard way.

Does the 'new' pages still have the 'two-up' function and if so, where?

Hi,
Very keen on the new update of iWork, especially Pages.
But unfortunately I can't find the two-up function anymore. This function would allow one to view two pages at the same time.
It used to be on the bottem left corner under the view section. It don't see it in the view nor the zoom menu.
Thanks in advance.

oh yes, I did leave some feedback.
This can't be real.
I disbelieve.
It's me, user error. It can't be them.
I have faith.. they will suddenly appear in this thread and tell us oh, it's under the X menu, just press Ctrl+Alt+Magic and you can do it.
There's no way they did all this extremely cool stuff to make pages available to me everywhere and then eviscerated the two-up view that I absolutely need in order for this to do what I need.

My mac is running mac os x lion does it still have airplay mirroring?

You can still use iTunes to send audio and video to the Apple TV.

Teachers sharing one dot mac with iWeb need help- sites are being lost

Sorry to be lengthy- Here's the question and issue first and then the background.
Question/Issue: Anyone know a way we can have multiple people (eventually 20 or so) with their own computers creating sites in iWeb and publishing them to a common dot mac account without wiping each other out?
Background:I am a teacher and at our school we have a single dot mac account. A few of us have been using iWeb (2 on iWeb 08 and 1 on iWeb 06) and posting our sites to dot mac with no problems. The iWeb 06 sites went to a folder under Web> Sites>iWeb in our dot-mac's iDisk; the iWeb 08 sites were directly under the Web>Sites folder. When sites were uploaded from different computers there was no problem (they all had unique names) and it worked great until this week.Even the 2 users both on iWeb 08 could send their sites to the iDisk and nothing would be deleted, just more site folders were added.
We are now all on iWeb 08 and so nothing goes into the folder on the dot-mac's iDisk under iWeb, they all go as unique sites- no problem I thought.
Our problem is now that when any one of us update our sites, it wipes out everyone else's site (since their site isn't on our computer). It didn't used to be that way 2 weeks ago !!! Could this be something new with the migration to mobile me (if it is, this really ***** for us)
I know a solution is to publish the sites to folders and then drag to the dot mac in sub-folders under Web>Sites instead of publish and each of us can have our own folder, but its a pain and not all of the teachers will be able to do this.
I think there is a feature in iWeb06 called personal domains, but I think we can only have 2, so not sure if this will help.
Does anyone know a way to set the defaults in the domain.sites2 file or in iWeb so it will use a sub-folder when loading up to dot mac? This way each of us can have our settings different and it will load for us automatically on the iDisk.
Does anyone know why this used to work and now it doesn't?
Any other ideas- Help Please

From my own experience.
When you publish to dotMac the index.html file in the root redirects to the top Site in the list of the iWeb domain file.
I use ca. 40 Sites in some 30 domain files. And most are customized after publishing. Plus a lot more irregular stuff.
iWeb remembers what Site in which domain was published last.
When I choose a different domain file, iWeb will create a new index.html file to redirect to the "new" Site.
As far as I could determine, none of the either published Sites are deleted. If iWeb did delete previous published Sites I would not change domain files.
In your case the following will happen. Every student publishes his/her Site(s). The last one published will be the default Site.
As long as no-one changes his/her Sitename or add a new Site at the top of the list, the default Site last published will be that.
Make sure everybody's Sitename is unique.
I use a custom index.html file in the root. So I have to pay attention that when I publish a new site, the custom index.html page is overwritten. I keep a copy of that index.html file in the root. I can replace the index.html file in case of emergency.
Does anyone know a way to set the defaults in the domain.sites2 file or in iWeb so it will use a sub-folder when loading up to dot mac? This way each of us can have our settings different and it will load for us automatically on the iDisk.
Don't look for hidden settings. If it was possible, it would be visible in the preferences. Accept the way iWeb/dotMac does its job. It wasn't designed to be used by multiple users with multiple computers and only one account. That should give you a hint.
All other problems are purely organizational. Personally I wouldn't trust multiple persons on one account. Give them their own account. If they mess up things they are responsible. Or find another solution.

No comments on dot mac blog

I checked the comment box in the RSS and I "publish all" but the comments option doesn't show up on my blog. What else do I need to do? It's a very simple blog, I haven't added anything advanced. I use their template and just add a picture and type the text, nothing fancy.
TIA
Amanda

Amanda ~ The URL of your blog page (and other pages) contains "%20", as shown above.
...iWeb's Help viewer says:
"Browsers convert spaces in site names to "%20." To avoid these symbols, use an underscore, hyphen, or some other character instead of a space. Also avoid non-Roman characters; many get converted to numbers when you publish."
This may or may not be causing the "comment" problem, but anyway your page names should not contain spaces. Replace them by the other characters suggested above and perhaps it will help.
After you've replaced the spaces in so many of your page names, it's advisable in iWeb to then do +File > Publish All to .Mac+. Following that, if you still have the problem, post back here.

Can I upload music from iPod to iTunes? My music has disappeared from my iTunes account, but still have it on iPod.

Music on my iTunes account has disappeared, but still have it on my older iPod; want to upload it to iTunes, but when I hook up to computer, iTunes wants to overwrite the iPod. I fear I'll lose it all. Any help?

Hey blite923,
Thanks for the question. If these are purchased songs, you can transfer purchases from your iPod to your computer without syncing:
