How to let clients update site

I am using Dreamweaver MX (v6.0) and am self-taught and only
use basic html. I would like to update my existing sites as well as
create new sites that enable the client to update certain areas
themselves.
Please reccommend an application/programme that I could use -
preferably something straight-forward.

Best solution is probably Adobe Contribute. This is a program
sold by Adobe that allows you as the designer to define the areas
the client is allowed to change.
The client then uses Contribute to connect to his site and
makes the changes. These changes are uploaded - but they adhere to
your style.
Advantages:
- your style is maintained
- easy solution
Disadvantage:
- cost of the program to your client
- learning curve for your client
Alternatively, build your site around a Content Management
System. There are several good ones available for free - but the
learning curve for you as the developer is steeper.
Advantage
- many possible CMsystems available
- Lots of versatility
- Some systems are free
Disadvantages
- Longer learning curve for you
- not all systems can function on all servers.
Hope this helps!

Creating website, how to let client update?

I have a client that saw my personal website I created and
now wants to know if I can create theirs. I use Dreamweaver, but
client does not have it. How can I create a website in DW that is
updated by a client without DW? The updates would only be text and
some photos for a photo gallery. Thanks!

http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/develop_web_application.html
You would need to be able to a) make a connection to a
database, b) pull a
recordset from that database that is relevant to the current
page, and c)
allocate that content in the recordset to the page, as
needed. You would
need to build a back end for the database that would allow
the client to log
in, and edit the content to be affixed to any given page.
It's a big bite, but it's do-able with a little help. Post
here if you want
more....

HT1751 I need to uninstall and reinstall iTunes (it won't let me update). So, how do I copy or back up my iTunes library of over 1,500 songs? Can I use a Flash Drive to do so?

I need to uninstall and reinstall iTunes (it won't let me update). I have IE 8 on Windows XP, and iTunes 10 something. In my Program files list I see iTunes and iTunes (2) and even iPod and iPod (2) where a tech had to back up and do this for me before. I'm just trying to fix it all. I keep getting the "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in the box below." I can even run a search and find the folder, but it gives me the same error message. I was planning on using the Microsoft Fix-It tool to help uninstall then Reinstall iTunes. But I need to backup my library. So, how do I copy or back up my iTunes library of over 1,500 songs? Can I copy the folder to desktop or can I use a Flash Drive to backup my music? I don't want to do anything until I know for sure how I can backup my songs, and then reinstall them into iTunes. Thanks for any help.

Ok, thanks that helps. I don't have an external hard drive though. What about backing up through 'the cloud'? I'm just wondering since my husband syncs his iPod to the PC through iTunes and he's worried that he will lose all the songs on his iPod if the library is lost from iTunes and he tries to 'sync' it up again. I'm not exactly sure how to 'copy the entire iTunes folder' either. I kinda suck at this unless I have step by step instructions, which I haven't found yet on iTunes help or other sources.
The only way I know how to back anything up is by going back to a restore point, etc. (as stated before, we don't have an external hard drive.)
Thanks for the info.

You need to add a valid payment method to your account. Purchasing and redeeming an iTunes gift card will work

My iphone 5 wont let me update apps keeps popping up with old apple id how do i fix this

my iphone 5 wont let me update apps keeps popping up with old apple id how do i fix this??

All apps downloaded/purchased are tied to the apple ID used to download/purchase them.
If you change your Apple ID and do not wish to use the old apple ID and password to update them, you have to delete them and redownload or buy them under the new apple ID.

Updated to Adobe Muse 2014 this morning and have worked in it for the last 8 hours. Now when I try to publish the updated site to Business Catalyst for my client to preview it crashes everytime. I have tried just publishing altered files only, then tried the whole site again, and then tried publishing as a new site altogether. Thought I would then try to export as HTML in the hope of uploading the files via an FTP client and Muse crashes and locks up again. I am extremely stressed about this as I am in the last few days of of website I have been working on now with no issues since December. We are due to go live and my client needs to see it. I am desperate for an answer. It is not looking good. I am on an Apple Mac and have not had any isses publishing it for the last 6 months. Not very happy to say the least. Need desperate help.

Hi Zak, I got onto Adobe Customer Care Live Chat this morning and gave them the error message. After some trouble shooting with them it appears the older archived file of the site still publishes. I have now reverted back to the old file and copied and pasted out of the new file and from some ideas given to me by support I am now able to publish to Business Catalyst. It seems there was something corrupt within the new pages added yesterday. I have no idea if this would have still happened if I hadn't updated but I am glad it wasn't a Muse specific problem. I am loving using Muse and the support from Adobe has been excellent. Thanks everyone. By the way I do love the new version and apart from this hick up that lost me a few hours, aged me some more and gave me grey hair I really love Muse. Thanks again.

I had to create a new Apple ID but it won't let me update apps because my old account keeps showing up how do I stop that

I had to create a new Apple ID but it won't let me update apps it keeps showing my old account how do I stop that from happening

Apps are always associated with the AppleID that purchased them, you cannot use another AppleID with them,
So in order to update them you must use the credentials that were used to purchase them.
You can chnge the details (Name and Primary email) for an AppleID instead of creating a new one.

I have created a Muse site for a client that wishes to host with Business Catalyst. How do I publish the site with their account rather than using one of my free sites?

I have created a Muse site for a client that wishes to host with Business Catalyst. How do I publish the site with their account rather than using one of my free sites? This is so I can keep my free ones for personal projects but also so they can pay for their own hosting. I am happy to set it all up for them but not sure what to do.

Hi
You can use their BC login details and use them , which on publish the site will be under their account.
Please change the BC login from Edit > Preferences > Publish > Switch Accounts , for Mac it would Adobe Muse > Preferences

Locally check how Endpoint Protection client gets updates

Hi,
I'm in the middle of a large deployment of SCEP (ahem) System Center 2012 Endpoint Protection, and I've come across an interesting question. Is it possible to determine the method the local SCEP client used to obtain it's most recent definitions update?
The background here is that our clients are set to obtain updates from the SCCM server, and only from the Internet as a last resort after 12 hours of failure. However, during one recent deployment, the local team reported a spike in their Internet traffic
and believe several hundred SCEP clients updated via the Internet. Is it possible to verify this locally from log files on the computer or some other method?
This is an issue for some of our locations where Internet bandwidth is at a premium, but we have good internal WAN links.
Kind regards,
Matt

We could configure Definition Update sources under Antimalware Policy.
