How do I set up and use IIS 7.5 in Windows 7

I just bought a new machine and installed Windows 7 RC Ultimate and CS4 on it.
I set up IIS (or at least I think I did) and Inetpub now shows in the directory listing, so it should be there.
Only problem is that I cannot save any files to any site in the Inetpub directory even when logged in as administrator.
I have to manage lots of web sites that use asp, and so need to have the Inetpub facility.
Setting up IIS in Windows 7 is poorly documented, and seems quite complex.
The instructions on Microsoft's technet site for accessing IIS do not work, and so I am at a loss.
Am I to assume that the normal Dreamweaver method of storing files in inetpub/wwwroot/sitefolder is no longer valid?
Whether or not, can anyone tell me how to set up a site in windows 7 that will run an asp site using IIS?

http://forums.iis.net/t/1147354.aspx has the answer to providing acess to folders that are not usually accesible in Windows 7.
Run the following command from an elevated command prompt (right click the "command prompt" icon and select "Run as Administrator").
icacls %systemdrive%\inetpub /grant  %userdomain%\%username%:(OI)(CI)(F) /grant %userdomain%\%username%:F
This command will add full access for your user account to the INETPUB directory.
Now the Administrator privileges which you don't have don't matter anymore because your account and not Administrators grant you access.
How obscure can you get?
I assume that changing the folder name from inetpub to whatever other folder you need to access will have the same effect.
All I have to sort out now is how to get the F12 key on my wireless keyboard to run a file when pressed in Dreamweaver - but that is another problem.

    Hello LindaLamb:
    First thing is connect your coex TV Anti cable to your computer the end connector looks like a bolt. Then open up Windows Media Center go down the list to live tv and follow and fill in your information with wizard . If your computer doesn't have an built in TV Tunner then you will need to purchase an USB TV tunner. http://www.bing.com/shopping/search?q=usb+tv+tunne​r&qpvt=usb+tv+tunner&FORM=HURE . frrw

  • How to set-up and use FAMILY Sharing

    Can someone please explain to me in detail how to set-up and use FAMILY Sharing, none of the information I have so far found in the documentation helps at all, in fact it puts you in a constant loop giving the same information over and over again
    We have quite a few devices from ipads, iphones and ipods and I need to set-up Family Sharing.
    We have our main Apple ID which is linked to our Payment method, I have now got my son a new iPad, I have created his Apple ID and set-up a link via FAMILY Sharing to our main Apple ID.
    From what I read we should be able to share our purchased Apps between family members.
    So I figured I would be able to get the Apps now via iTunes that are part of the FAMILY Sharing, however when I go into ITunes (latest version downloaded yesterday) I can only see the Home sharing menu item not FAMILY Sharing, so I cannot work out in Itunes how to get Apps that are FAMILY shared.  So ok I will try and get Apps directly via the Ipad using the App Store.  To test it is working I look for a known paid for App, I then go to download it and it is now asking me to pay for it again. 
    Can someone please explain to me in detail how FAMILY Sharing is supposed to work and how I get it to work please.
    Thanks for your help

    Hey GregWr,
    Thanks for the question. The following resources provides some of the best information regarding Family Sharing. Included, you’ll find information on making sure the accounts are set to "Share my purchases”, as well as information on downloading Family Member purchases from the iTunes Purchased section. Please note that some applications are not shareable.

  • How can I set PCTUSED and PCTFREE in Warehouse databases?

    Hi,
    There are many Schemas in our database and some are used for OLTP and some others are used for Warehouse. Also our tablespaces are Local Managed.
    Could you help me please how can I set PCTUSED and PCTFREE for Warehouses and OLTP.
    What are your suggestions? What should be optimum?
    DB version is 9.2.0.8.
    thanks & regards

    If you are using locally managed tablespaces with ASSM then the pctused parameter would no longer apply. In all cases dictionary vs locally managed with or without ASSM you should set pctfree based on how much of the data row column values are present at initial row insertion and how likely any column is upated to a larger size after initial row insertion.
    In a warehouse I would expect most of the tables to have 100% of the row data present at initial insert and for the data to never be updated. For tables meeting this requirement a pctfree of 3 - 5% would likely be a good choice. I never like to use 0% since the day may come when you add another column to the table.
    With OLTP tables the ideal pctfree value varies more from table to table. Most table so seem to work well enought with the default 10% but I have seen tables that need 50% pctfree to prevent row migration since only the key column values existed at initial insert and most all the other column data was added later.
    Where ASSM is not in use I like to set pctused to 95 - pctfree. Over the last 15 years I am not sure I ever found a need to change the pctused from this once set. I have set a lot of tables up over the years from the old default of 40% to use 60% and 80% before resetting everything during a server platform migration as I mentioned above.

  • How I can set Leopard to use the color management mixture that Tiger uses?

    I have recently bought a new Mac with Leopard installed. My old Mac is running Tiger. Unfortunately the color management default settings in Leopard are different than in Tiger, so this is completely messing up my calibration. Can somebody please tell me how I can set Leopard to use whatever color management mixture that Tiger uses? - Thanks.

    I already have set FF to No Proxy. This made FF work again, but not any of my other internet programs, programs that don't have the option to set to no proxy, they rely on the system settings. So I need to know how to reset my system settings back to their default values. This will allow all my net progs to access the net again, including FF using the Use System Settings option. Since FF has an option to use system settings, this is a somewhat FF related question. I need to get all my net programs working again, not just FF! And, if my system settings are restored, FF will work using the system settings, and all my other progs will work too.

    I lost my apple tv remote.  How can I set up the use of my iphone remote app without it?

    The remote app would require home sharing to be enabled and both to be on the same network. If that's not the case then you will need a new remote

    Sharing an Apple ID is never recommended for these reasons.
    They can create their own: http://appleid.apple.com and you can add them at the addresses they use for their ID.
    Sharing an Apple ID is not recommended because all of your data gets merged and when it gets deleted from one device, it deletes from them all, such as Contacts.

  • I have two Apple ID, how can I delete one and use the email address associates to the main one?

    I have two Apple ID, how can I delete one and use the email address associates to the main one?

    If you abandon one of the Apple IDs you will also basically be abandoning any content that you have acquired with that Apple ID. Content can only be updated and re-downloaded with the Apple ID that was used to buy it. Apple will not combine the content of Apple IDs and Apple will not transfer the content from one Apple ID to another Apple ID.

    If you have any apps that were acquired with the old ID they will always be tied to that ID. Delete them and reacquire them with the new ID that you have in Settings > iTunes and App Store
