  • How to publish iWeb online but not through iCloud but someone else?

    How to publish iWeb online but not through iCloud but someone else?
    Mybe Google or woodpress, 
    Or publish iWeb online with iCloud WITHOUT upgrading Lion?

    iWeb will still be around but as Jeff pointed out if you want a blog with visitors comments you should consider converting your iWeb blog to  WordPress.  Rage Software has created an applicaiton that will convert your current iWeb blog w/visitor comments to a Wordpress blog. You can get the application here: Convert Your iWeb Blog to a WordPress Blog.
    If you don't have visitor comments then the iWeb blog will continue to work for you on a 3rd party FTP server.
    If you have photo pages in your website with the accompanying slideshow you'll need to read the following:
    It's now confirmed that iWeb and iDVD have been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
    On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. HOWEVER, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
    Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Hit counter
    ◼ MobileMe Gallery
    All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
    I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken.  If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
    There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows.  Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
    Click to view full size
    However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone.  How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
    In addition the iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on.
    HOWEVER, the iLife 11 boxed version that is still currently available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those copies still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD.

  • Newbie -- how to save presentation to give to someone else??

    New Mac and KN user. Am very familiar with the "other" presentation software and how simple it was to give someone else a copy of the slides -- you give them a single file.
    Thinking the same applied here, I saved the KN presentation to a USB drive but when I looked there was a whole bunch of odd things there. Is this normal or is it because the drive is formatted with FAT 32?
    I need to be able to give someone a "copy" of the presentation so it can be loaded onto a web site for download. I've looked all through the menus and the only option is to print to PDF which is NOT what I want to do.
    HELP Mr. Wizard!!

    The KN file is a "Package" (a special folder in other terms) that is why it looks different on your USB drive. If you want to be safe, archive (zip) the file first before copying. On your Mac, control-select the file then select "Show Package Contents" to view the file like it is seen on the USB drive.

  • How do I send a contact from my contacts to someone else's iPhone?

    I need to send contacts to someone else 's. iPhone. How do I do this?
    Thanks,
    KEW

    Launch the Contacts application from your iPhone home screen.
    Tap the name of the contact you want to share.
    Tap the "Share Contact" button. A prompt opens.
    Select "MMS." The iPhone's text messaging application loads with the contact card already inserted as the body of the message.
    Tap the To field, then enter the number of the other iPhone.
    Tap "Send".

  • How do I report use of my email address by someone else (not my apple ID)

    Hi there,
    Someone has registered on apple, using my gmail address. This isn't my apple ID, but I don't want someone else using my email address for their account. Likewise, I don't want to end up receiving personal info or anything from this person as they use their account. How do I report this and get it stopped?
    Thank you
    Richard

    Thank you anyway. I did try finding an appropriate discussion group to place this question but nothing came close! Thanks again for your help. I'll try and see if Apple Chat for purchase options can put me through to support tomorrow. They're closed for now.

  • How to share a timeline you are working on with someone else (Without rendering)

    Hello,
    I use CS6 and need to be able to share/export the timeline as is to someone I am working with but can't figure out how to do so without exporting like normal.
    We would like to do so without loosing all of the clips and details in the timeline so that they could pick up editing where I left off and so on.
    Please help.
    Thanks!
    Ryan

    This is why Harm has 17,000+ posts.  Some of them are actually helpful, and not snarky, and not Mac-bashing.
    You should be able to hand off a project with renders. 
    Using Project Manager is one way to collect all your assets and projects into one destination.  I've never used it, and don't know if it copies renders as well as footage.
    Your renders are in a folder in your Pr Project folder, called "Preview Files."  Your colleage may have to relink the rendered files, as well as any source footage, depending on your file structure.

  • How can I send all emails in archive folder to someone else?

    I have a friend who wishes to see all the emails from a business account (info@) that we were both involved in and which I have been administering for a few years. I have therefore selected the info account, selected all messages and used archive and it has created 2 new subfolders called 2013 and 2014 under an archived folder. No problem with that at all so far.
    The problem I have *NOW* is how do I now send these to my friend? I thought they would have been archived as a file which I could have attached to another email but no. I thought there would be an option to save these now as a file of some kind perhaps on my hard drive or within Thunderbird that I could have attached to an email but once again no, there doesn't seem to be that option anywhere.
    SO my question is, how can I proceed from here. Yes I *COULD* select each message individually and forward them but that would be ridiculous. He is using SeaMonkey which as you probably all know uses Thunderbird for the email client so there's no problem with compatability.
    Am I making sense to anyone? Please can you point me in the right direction/give me an answer and solution to this and then I can get on and sort this out and move onto something else. :)
    Thanks, Nick

    Ok I've sussed it out on my own. In case anyone else is having the same problem, go to the archive folder you created (and can probably do it exactly the same from the inbox) select ALL messages (or just the ones you wish to forward) then either right click and select or select from the forward menu option at the top "Forward as attachments". Check the title/subject of your email and change as applicable as it seems to use the subject from the first email you select before choosing select all, and insert the email recipient you're forwarding the emails too. BINGO or Hey Presto or Abracadabra or whatever word you like for "Yessssssssssssss!" lol
    And that's all the lady wrote. :) Hope it helps.

  • How do I e-mail a web page I want someone else to see?

    sometimes i see a web page I want to send onto someone...how do I do that now that you have changed things?

    First click the Menu button and check if you have the "Email Link" available.
    If not, then click Customise in the Menu, then check for "Email Link" on the left hand side, drag and drop it in the Menu area or near the Menu button, the choice is yours.

  • How do I get a DVD made with imovie by someone else imported into my imovie

    A friend from out of town recorded a 2 hour video of my band performing. He imported the video from his camcorder into imovie on his mac and burned it into a DVD and destroyed the original files. I have the DVD and would like to import into my mac into imovie to create some individual song video files for our website. I don't plan on doing this frequently and I need software with a simple interface that is easy to understand. I have no problem purchasing software (but I'd take freeware if it were available) to easily rip the DVD into the best format to work with in imovie. I have imovie '08 but would use another software if it was easier or better. I don't want expensive or pro editions since this is likely the only time I'll do this. any suggestions?

    You will need third party software such as Handbrake, Ripit; these you have to purchase.
    MPEG streamclip is free: http://www.squared5.com/
    but you probably also need Apple's QuickTime component ($20): http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
    With thanks to AppleMan, here are his instructions for doing this from a DVD to iMovie 8:
    +I have found I get the best results when I use MPEG Streamclip (which is free). You also have to install the Apple QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component which costs about $20. Once you install the QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component, you don't have to interact with it, but MPEG Streamclip needs it.+
    +Insert your DVD in your drive. If DVD player runs automatically, shut it down. You should see your DVD as an icon on the desktop. Open it is a finder winder. You should see a folder which has VOB files.+
    +Open MPEG Streamclip and drag these VOB files into Streamclip. If it offers to fix timecode breaks, say yes. You can do the VOB files one by one if you want to deal with shorter clips. Or, you can drag all the VOB files at once and create one long clip, or use streamclip to separate them into smaller clips.+
    +In Streamclip, select File/Export using Quicktime and choose Apple Intermediate Codec. You may want to check "Deinterlace" in this step. Try deinterlacing and see if you like it. It depends on your final target media as to whether this will help.+
    +Now you should have MOV files in Apple Intermediate Codec which can be imported into iMovie+
    Post back if this does not help. You do know that decompressing footage from a DVD causes some quality loss? But, better to have the footage with some loss than not to have it at all!

  • How to transfer pictures to an iPad which belongs to someone else?

    I have tonnes of pictures of my nephews on my iphoto from my iphone4... but I do not know how to transfer all those pictures, of my nephews, to my sister's iPad1!!! I do not want to sync my sis's iPad to my itunes or anything, just simply want to transfer some pictures!!!

  • HT4137 I purchased the iPhone 5 switched from iPhone 4S, how come if I delete a contact or add on my old iPhone it shows it on my new iPhone? How can I make it stop I'm planning on someone else using my old device

    I transferred from an iPhone 4S to an iPhone 5, everything switched but it seems to be synced to my old phone. Info I delete or add a contact or music it will then do the same on my new phone. A family member will be using my old phone , how do I get it to stop syncing what I do?

    If you have everything that you need on your iPhone 5 then do this to the iphone 4.
    Go to settings - general - reset - erase all contents and settings - this will wipe your phone clean.
    Then you can give it to your family member for use.

  • How can I export a small iMovie 9 project for someone else using iMovie 9 in a way that they will be able to edit all the separate clips and audio?

    I've tried simply copying the project - but of course, that no longer contains the separate clips and audio used to create the project.  Is there some export function I'm missing - or do I need to just gather up the clips and audio used in the project myself and send those?
    Thanks.

    You need to export your project via the Share command.
    Share > Export Movie.... (or Share > Export using QuickTime).
    That will render your project (combine and set all the events, stills, audio etc).
    When completed you can then take that exported file and import it into iMovie on another computer (or back into your own) as a new Event.
    You can then start a new project, load that event file and continue editing.

  • How do I resize a photo to attach it to someone else's web site

    I want to add photo attachments to someone else's web site. my files are raw, off the camera i.e. big.  I can easily resize if I email. but why can't find an easy way to downsize in iPhoto?  what should I do?

    The image you're viewing in iPhoto are jpeg versions of the RAW files.  So all you need to do is drag it to the desktop and you will get a jpeg file of around 2-3 MBs depending on the RAW file size.
    Or you can export as leonieDF has suggested while setting the compression level (Quality) and maximum pixel dimension to get the image and file size you need.
