Dreamweaver+mac+ie 7 problems

i'm a newbie. i constantly rechecked my site in main browsers
on mac as i built it. I just uploaded and found a pc to see it in
ie7. it is terrible. pale.washed out. blue color cast. haven't a
clue how to fix it... can any one help direct me. how does a mac
person check browser support for ie without a pc?

Is it just the color that's the problem? If so this is one of
the browser issues that we all deal with daily. Mac and Windows
machines use different gamma for their displays, hence the radical
color shift you see (although usually Windows color looks darker).
If you use Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop to design your
layouts, you can turn on proofing to see an approximation of the
color shift (View>Proof Setup). But that won't change the fact
that the shift will always happen--you will just know about it in
advance. Web design is all about giving up control and finding a
happy medium.
Webdesign color rule #1: Always warn your clients in advance
that you will not be able to exactly match the PMS color of their
logo for the website.

FTP Error in Dreamweaver (mac)

I have a site that I can connect to on my Dreamweaver/Windows, but not on Dreamweaver/Mac.
I have the settings identical as far as I can tell and it immediately gives me an error that says:
An FTP error occured - cannot make conection to host.
No response from server. This may be due to one or more of the following reasons:
-Proxy... etc...
-Use Passive... etc...
-IPV6.... etc...
-Firewall etc...
-Port 21 etc...
None of these apply except for Passive and I have set it both ways with no joy.
I can use FTP from Firefox on my Mac with the same settings and it works fine.

Fixed.
I am using Dreamweaver CS5.5 on Snow Leopard and am having the same FTP problems.
After trying to uninstall and reintall Dreamweaver CS5.5 with no luck I was able to solve my issue by leaving the "Root Directory" field of the FTP server configuration BLANK.
My hosting provider (justhost) allows you to specify the FTP path when you create a FTP accounts. That is where I specify the "root dir" path and not in DW ftp server config.

Windows 8.1 Installation On Mac - Got a Problem

Windows 8.1 Installation On Mac - Got a Problem
Hi everyone,
I'v researched a lot about installing Win on Mac but I still got a problem when everything seems to be fine.
I got a Macbook Pro Retina, Late 2013 with OSX Mavericks and Bootcamp 5 installed on. And for installing windows, I already got an empty 8GB USB Drive formatted as MS-DOS (FAT32). And I've prepared Windows 8.1 ISO in my Downloads folder.
During my last effort, I opened Bootcamp Assist and then Chose the options: "Create Windows 7 or later version installation disk" and "Download the latest windows support software from Apple". Then I chose my Windows 8.1 ISO location and my destination. When it finished ,I was expecting it to run windows setup. But it closed and nothing happened
When I opened BootCamp again, only the first two options were available as before and "Install or remove Windows 7 or later" wasn't.
Now ,what do I have to do exactly? (NOTE: I'm not a professional. So please answer in a simple way. )
Should I restart the Mac and Hold OPTION while booting to run Windows setup? I was thinking about it but I thought I might screw it up all. So I decided to ask it here to be sure.
Any help will be appreciated by heart!

Hi Alcatrax,
I would recommend following the steps in this link in order to help you complete your installation of Boot Camp:
Boot Camp Help: Install Windows on your Mac
https://help.apple.com/bootcamp/mac/5.0/help/#apdecf0e4b6-b472-438d-881e-57c230b 1c250
Prepare your Mac for Windows
Boot Camp Assistant helps prepare your Mac for Windows by creating a new partition for Windows and then starting the Windows installer. Optionally, you can install Windows using an external USB drive that contains a Windows ISO image downloaded from Microsoft and Windows support software.
Important: If you’re using a portable computer, connect the power adapter before continuing.
Insert an external drive into the USB port on your Mac and keep it inserted while you install Windows and Windows support software.
Open Boot Camp Assistant, located in the Other folder in Launchpad.
Select the option to install Windows, select other options you need, then click Continue.
Here are the other options you can choose:
If you want to install Windows from an external USB drive and you have a Windows ISO image, select the option to copy the image to an external USB drive. If this option isn’t available, your Mac doesn’t support installing Windows from an external USB drive.
If you haven’t already downloaded the Windows support software for your Mac, select the option to download it. In a later step, you’ll install the Windows support software on your Windows partition.
Follow the onscreen instructions for the options you selected.
When you’re asked to create a Windows partition, specify a partition size. If you have multiple hard drives in your computer, you can select a different hard drive and create a single partition on that drive, so that the drive is solely used for Windows.
Note: You can’t resize the partition later.
If you need help determining the best size for your Windows partition, refer to your Windows installer documentation. For Windows 8, create a partition that is at least 30 GB.
In a later step, you’ll format the Windows partition.
If you are using an installation disc for the 64-bit version of Windows, insert it into the optical drive in your Mac or the external optical drive. Otherwise, keep the external USB drive with the 64-bit version of Windows inserted.
Click Install.
Boot Camp Assistant creates the Windows partition, restarts your Mac, then opens the Windows installer.
Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!

Can I download music from my PC onto my new iPhone and still have my iPhone use iTunes on my Mac without a problem? I have no music on the Mac because it is new. Can I download music onto iPhone on both PC and Mac?

Can I download music from my PC onto my new iPhone and still have my iPhone sync with my Mac without a problem?
I've had an iPod over a year and have not done much with it except download music onto it from my PC. Just recently have purchased the iPhone. When I got my iPod I didn't have a Mac, but now I do. I am really into my iPhone, so now I want to make sure that I don't do anything wrong. So can I connect my iPhone to both my PC and my Mac without it getting mixed signals and stop working. I have no music on my Mac but plan to download music into iTunes on it. So can I download music from both computers without problems onto my iPhone?

StoneMountainGirl,
No. You can only music to your iPhone from one computer at a time. If you try to load music onto it from a 2nd computer, it will erase the current content on the iPhone and replace it with whats in the iTunes library you are connected to,

My new macbook pro is giving me hardtime. even apple team is not being to solve it. they replace the motherboard first it didn't work. second time they formatted the computer and that also didn't work. every time my mac showing different problems.

my new macbook pro is giving me hardtime. even apple team is not being to solve it. they replace the motherboard first it didn't work. second time they formatted the computer and that also didn't work. every time my mac showing different problems.
At first my computer had issues. Once it go to sleep it will not back again. I dropped my laptop at apple store to fix it. After 10 days they returned my laptop saying they were no able to fix the problem so they replaced motherboard aiming if that might help. Acttually that didn't help.I had same issue again. I visited apple store again. This time they said they could fix, if I will allow them to format the harddrive. I said ok. They formatted it. It was working fine for few daysAfter few days compter is taking.even more than 15 min to shutdown. Now computer has another problem. It is being hang frequently like every 20'to.30 min.
I don't know what to do? I still have one month left on first year warranty. I have requested couple times to apple associates either to fix or replace or refund. They are showing me rude behavior. They are not understanding my situation. I am a student. I need to do lot of home work. Since last three month my mac book and apple associates giving me hard time. Any suggestions are welcome.

Contact Apple Customer Care - not Apple Care - Customer Support. Have your receipts handy and/or case numbers. Be patient, be calm, and tell your story just as you have here. I get the sense you are not in the US and don't have access to an Apple Store but are going to an independent shop. This makes using Customer Support all the more important. If phoning isn't viable, use registered mail.
Since time is running short, be prepared to purchase AppleCare to exennd your warranty 2 more years. Yes, you shouldn't have to do this, but it gives you added protection and more opportunities over the next 2 years to claim a replacement computer if you don't get one immediately. After dealing with a similar unhappy situation with a Mac in the late 1990s I finally got a replacement computer and reimbursed for the AppleCare policy.

My mac Mini has problem rendering images and video

THE PROBLEM:
My mac mini has problem rendering JPEG image. There are strips on the images. Other images such as GIF, PNG, TIFF, and BMP are displayed nicely.
The images shown in the links below illustrate the problem:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/terencewong/71481156/
http://www.flickr.com/photos/terencewong/73360989/
(Please note that this image is grabbed from my faulty Mac Mini and saved into TIFF. For uploading purpose, I converted it into JPEG on ANOTHER computer.)
For movies, AVI can be playback without problem. But when it is converted to MPEG, it looks like an untunned TV channel.
FIXES TRIED:
I did erase and install 3 to 4 times using both the install disc and my Tiger Family Pack. All ended up with strips on the JPEG images and the generated MPEG movies.
I've also tried to flash the firmware to 113-xxxxx-124 using ATI's october 2005 universal ROM update, however, the ROM Revision shown in System Profiler is still 113-xxxxx-116 no matter how many time I reboot the system.
INVESTIGATION:
Yesterday, I did some research and got to know that JPEG and MPEG are using DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) for decompression. And the ATI Radeon 9200 chip provide such a transform on hardware basis, which free the CPU from doing something else. Feel free to point out my inaccuracy.
HARDWARE SPECIFICATION:
I bought the Mac Mini in the last Februray.
The system Boot ROM version is: 4.8.9f1
Display card is ATI Radeon 9200
Chipset Model: ATY,RV280
Revision ID: 0x0001
ROM Revision: 113-xxxxx-116
A POSSIBLE CONCLUSION:
I suspect that it is this part of the chip (the DCT) that is faulty.
Anyone know how to fix this problem?
Many thanks!

Assuming that your display is tightly connected, thus the problem is not caused by something as simple as that, the fact that a full erase and install has not removed the problem would, I think, point to this being a hardware issue, and given that everyone's mini (with the possible exception of some of the latest ones) has the same video chipset as yours, and do not suffer the problem that you appear to, it seems very likely that your mini has a fault which is in need of repair.
If you have an Apple Store nearby, I would take it there to have it checked out - at the very least they should be able to replicate your problem using an in-store display, and if not, thusly suggest it's something external to the mini and concerning your display or something very unusual in the immediate environment of the mini. If you don't have an Apple Store in reach, I'd take the system to an Apple authorized service provider since at the present time it is under warranty.

Clearing mac and DNS problems

Hi there,
let me know if this should be asked in a different community and ill repost it.
I have just changed my website host and have repointed my DNS to new host. However my macbook pro keeps taking me to the old host.
I have tried other computers and they all seem to go to new host , so it appears my mac is the problem.
I have tried clearing cache , history and cookies in the hope it would fix the problem but it hasnt.
What am i overlooking??????
Im not IT smart so please reply in simple language .
Any advice appreciated.
thanks
CG

If you moved your domain from one hosting service to a different one, and changed the the nameservers listing for your domain - which is what I think you're saying - then the "problem" really lies outside of your MacBook.
Changes to DNS entries, like the nameservers, can take anywhere from minutes to as long as a couple of days to propagate through the DNS system. How fast that change will show up for your ISP depends on how often their DNS servers update their caches and how often the hosting service updates their DNS entires to the DNS servers they are linked to. (Typically, hosting services are linked to DNS servers that update rather frequently - no less than once an hour.) The other computers you used may be hooked to different DNS servers that get updated more frequently than the one your MacBook is using.
If you know the IP address of the new hosting site, you can plug that into the address bar of your browser and it should get you to the new host, no problem. Using a URL is going to rely on updated DNS information making through the DNS system.

Mac to pc problems related to 10.4.3?- sorry!

I have read and tried many of the suggestions people have offered for mac to pc problems. I used to be able to video chat from my imac in London to my parent's PC in New Zealand. I upgraded to 10.4.3 and now my problems have started. I can see them in the buddy list and I can see their webcam highlighted, so I assume my computer recognises they are on-line and have a camera plugged in. If they invite me and I accept, the view through my camera appears and then momentarily freezes and then a few seconds later I get the usual ".....did not respond". I can video chat with other friends on macs and I can view the 'appleu3test01' AIM test sight, so I guess I have all the correct ports open (I've checked often enough!!). I use an origo modem on an ethernet cable.
I have tried the usual stuff like repairing permissions, deleting plist files etc.
Please can somebody help me?

Thank you EZ Jim and Ralph,
I will forward the links to my folks in NZ. I had suggested they try uninstalling and re-installing AIM but I now see that 5.9 is no longer available and the latest version, Triton, doesn't appear to support video yet?
Do you have any idea where I can get the old 5.9 and that extra bit of software that pc uses needed?

Don't know if this went through the first time. Cannon printer would not print black. bought a new Epson-800. Same problem. Can it be something in my Mac causing the problem. It's only the black that is not working.

Mac Safari display problem

I created my site using a pc and my website works fine on all browsers except safari on mac. The problem is that at the bottom of my page ( About News Forum) The News and Forum go underneath About when this container should be right next to About tab.
My website www.robootica.com
Heres my code
<div id="left_column"><a href="../about.html" style="color:#999;">About</a></div>
<div id="column_container"><div id="right_column"><a href="../chat.html" style="color:#999;">Forum</a></div>
<div id="center_column"><a href="../news.html" style="color: #999;">News</a></div></div>
my CSS:
#left_column {
float: left;
width:350px;
font-family: "OCR A Std", "Orator Std";
color: #999;
padding-top: 10px;
text-align: center;
cursor: crosshair;
background-color: #000;
padding-bottom: 10px;
display:inline;
#column_container {
float:right;
width: 738px;
padding-top:10px;
cursor: crosshair;
background-color: #000;
padding-bottom:10px;
#right_column {
float:right;
width:350px;
font-family: "OCR A Std", "Orator Std";
color: #999;
text-align: center;
background-color: #000;
#center_column {
margin-left:10px;
width: 350px;
color: #999;
font-family: "OCR A Std", "Orator Std";
text-align: center;
background-color: #000;
float:right;

It doesnt look right on the latest version 5.0.2. My spry widget bar at the top is moved to the left when it suppose to be on the right, and the div container tag of News and Forum is moved under div About when it should be to the right (next to) the About div.

Unfortunately I can't help you. But if it's any consolation, you are not alone. I am suffering from same symptom except it happens with any dynamic site I need to work on. And it doesn't matter whether the sites are local or remote.
I am running Windows 7 64bit as well in both of my machines, desktop (AMD) and laptop (Intel), and this happens on both of them and with any dynamic site, Joomla! for instance.

Caveman with club defeats ALL .mac and idisk problems!

Well, I'm pretty proud of myself. Like many others after upgrading to Leopard, had myriad .mac and idisk problems including, but not limited to: couldn't mount idisk on desktop, can't enable syncing of .mac on various computers, couldn't register a computer. I tried the log out, log in option in .mac. Also tried removing the syncservices folder from Home>Library>Application Support folder. I also tried reinstalling the system from a download of 10.5.1 udpate, repairing permissions, and every other trick I read about on the discussion forum. The ultimate solution for me? Open Keychain Access application in the Application>Utilities folder, show all the items and delete every item with '.mac' in it! Restarted computer, now idisk mounts fine, login to .mac works fine, and syncing works perfectly and I can register the previously unregisterable computer. While I have no logical explanation for this, because I don't understand enough about the Keychains to say why it worked, it clearly fixed the problem. Syncing has happened fine, using idisk is fine and all is well! Oh yes, I had a backup of my computer to an external drive before proceeding with my various interventions. Best of luck and don't be afraid to swing your caveman club wildly in the dark... you just might hit something worthwhile

I'm having exactly ONE of the problems Joshua lists here ... my iDisk will not mount to my desktop. All else works fine with my iDisk.
I don't see any responses to the original post. Help anyone?

Lacie Speakers and Mac Pro Firewire problem waking from sleep and loud feed

Lacie Speakers and Mac Pro Firewire problem waking from sleep and loud feedback. I had a powermac before this with the speakers and it worked fine. But the mac pro is having these issues. Is it the firewire port or the speakers or (and most likely) just a firmware glitch with mac pro? Anyone else see these issues?

http://web.mac.com/jerimydulay/Site/MyAlbums/Pages/Lacie_FirewireMIDI.html
Here is my audio settings. For some reason I wish I could remember what I did. It was actually the Apple Store tech in the Unversity Village in Seattle that gave me the idea and I swear I had to change the settings in MIDI setup. Now that Leopard is out it seems the MIDI stuff has been redone. I included screenshots of my MIDI setup as it is currently to see if you see something different on your computers. Let me know!

Hello, i own an i7 all in one mac. I tried to partition him using bootcamp but didn't have mac os cd neither mac instalation. the problem i am dealing now its that i cant go back to OS partition since its not appeared when i restart c and no win drivers

I tried to partition him using bootcamp but didn't have mac os cd neither mac instalation. the problem i am dealing now its that i cant go back to OS partition since its not appeared when i restart c and no win drivers to have a properly running system. I've thought as an option to re-download boot-camp and run the instalation from windows partition and see if i can repair it that way, didnt try yet thought just in case anyone has a better prposition or dealed with the same problem

Take it to your local Apple Store or AASP, it's covered by a 1 year hardware warranty. If you have AppleCare then give them a call but I'm pretty sure they will advise the same. If you have not purchased AppleCare yet please do, this will extend the warranty to 3 years however it MUST be purchased within the first year of ownership. Let it go 366 days and you are out of luck. AppleCare will also include telephone support too.
Good luck.
