HTML Article Management: Is there an easier way to perform batch updates?

I have a folio with many html articles.
After a batch of edits I need to update the folio via FolioBuilding panel.
I've tried 2 ways both however both are time consuming;
1) via Updates: updating is time consuming because i have to select each artcle, go to menu select update, wait till complete, repeat for each article.
2) via reimport: select each article, go to menu & select delete, wait till complete, repeat for each article then re-import all articles
Is there an easier way to accomplish batch updates?
Thanks,
John

Just use "import" & the sw insts' will load and assign accordingly, automatically.
But oddly, there are times when importing a SMF w/imbedded prgm changes, that LP8 loads a completely wrong instrument to a specific track(s).
One reason that I've kept only one of my trustworthy external midi modules (Roland XV5080), specifically for just importing SMFs'. When the XV is in GM mode, any standard midi files I import to LP8... always load pgm changes correctly 100% of the time.

Call search space and partitions - is there a easy way to view

Hi All
I would like to know how my css and partitions all hang together on my call manager, is there a easy way of seeing this, like a visual or table view etc ?
cheers

Hi Carl,
You can try the following. Using Bulk Administration, Export CSS data, you will get a tar file. Save that tar file in csv format. It will show the CSS names along with the list of partitions assigned to each CSS ( example output from my lab )

HT2357 I accidently deleted all of my updates and they're not coming back. Is there any quick way to get these updates active again?

I accidentally deleted all of my updates and they're not coming back. I haven't been able to make any updates since 2006. I have a log of my past updates but I cannot seem to get them active again. Is there any easy way to get these updates active again?
This was a while ago back in 2006 but from what I can remember I actually deleted/permanently removed these updates from my list of updates. I tried keeping all the updates except for two that I did not need and somehow deleted all of the updates I wanted to keep. I've tried reseting my ignored updates but that does not bring back the updates. If i delete the two that I originally attempted to remove - it only brings those two back. I hope there is still some way to get these updates back. I appreciate any help that anyone is able to give me.
Thanks!

Is there an easy way for a client to update a small part of a muse site?

I am a Creative Cloud subscriber.
I've made several small websites in Muse and enjoy using it, more so than Dreamweaver, as I'm not a web expert. I've exported those sites as HTML and published them via my own domain and hosting.
I've been commissioned to make a website where the client can update a small "latest news" section on the site without my intervention.
Is there any easy way to do this, short of my client buying a Muse subscription?
Cheers
Mark

Guest map (is there an easier way) ?

So I have seen a few sites that have a guest map. I did some searching and found some instructions oh how to do it.
What I read says that I will have to upload a file each time I publish... As well as some html editing....???
MWong on the iWeb forums is where I got the instructions.
http://www.rowan-cottage.co.uk/Site/Articles.html
Is there an easy way?
If so where can I go to find step by step
Thanks.....

Hello again Nathan!
Michael's instructions are as step-by-step as it gets. Basically, all of this "special" stuff is the same. iWeb can't do it directly, so we have to go into the html files that iWeb outputs and make changes to it. The deal here is that everytime you subsequently change that file in iWeb, iWeb will save a new copy of that file without your previously added "special" modifications. So it is necessary to repeat the process again.
As far as a GuestMap page goes, it really isn't a page that changes often as far as the layout in iWeb goes, so you won't be needing to redo that one too much. But as long as you learn the basic steps, it really doesn't take but a few seconds to edit the files for your purposes...and you can then apply the same technique to add other things to your pages.
Let's give it a go here...step one...sign up for a Guestmap account...check?
How far are you in Michael's instructions??? We'll talk you through it. If you see me online (check my status on my homepage), feel free to chat with me, too.

HT204053 can I purchase from two different stores ie store in New Zealand and Store in Australia and how do I sync updates on applications? Do I have to switch ID's in my settings each time or is there an easier way.

can I purchase from two different stores ie store in New Zealand and Store in Australia and how do I sync updates on applications purchased from either store? Do I have to switch ID's in my settings each time or is there an easier way. The trouble is I set up my appleid in new Zealand and so all icloud and itunes and app stores are under New Zealand Apple ID I have since moved to Australia. Im a real beginner at this stuff so bare with me pse.

I'm in the same boat as you -- except that I manage both a school lab (volunteer job) and macs in the enterprise (pay job). What I think we need is the Education Volume Purchasing Program
http://www.apple.com/education/volume-purchase-program/faq.html
Unfortunately this all seems a little rough around the edges -- for example, I have found updates for AppStore apps on the support.apple.com updates download site, but then when I install them via ARD they don't actually update the software. (The AppStore icons still show as needing the updates, and the version info reports the old version.) The documentation is also vague about which AppleID to use in which circumstance. I think they just haven't finished thinking through the implications of the various procedures and policies upon the various kinds of customers. When we deployed Mountain Lion on the school lab, we made an install usb and went around and installed it on each computer -- and it appears that you are on the honor system as far as paying for all of the licenses that you install. We did! But they appear to have no way to enforce it.
So far, I have only deployed 9 Lion macs in my day job, and our "solution" to the AppStore showing updates problem has been to drag the AppStore icon off of the users' docks so they don't see them!

HT1660 is there an easy way to delete the whole itunes library and and start again. I notice there is only an add file/folder button but no remove facility

I recently upgraded to the iphone 5 and managed to sort the transition out with little trouble but noticed when I tried to put my music on that Itunes has messed with album info and either it or me has generated several copies of the same albums over the years and it makes it quite dificult to sort it all out before reloading on the phone. To stop the chaos I had hoped to clear the library and start again but cant find a way to do it. I was hoping to sort all my music out in original files and consolidate them into a proper folder. HOw do I do this. I notice there is an add fole and folder button but no take away??? is there an easy way?

Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. If you have multiple references to the same files then don't send to the recycle bin. Use my DeDuper script if you don't want to do it by hand. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
(If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed)

Is there an EASY way to submit podcasts to the itunes store? i've tried creating podcasts in garageband, then somewhere after wordpress itunes doesn't recognize the feed. my process has been (i am open to suggestions for other free and EASY services/me

is there an EASY way to submit podcasts to the itunes store? i've tried creating podcasts in garageband, then somewhere after wordpress itunes doesn't recognize the feed.
my process has been (i am open to suggestions for other free and EASY services/methods):
garageband : create & edit audio. add 1400x1400 image.
share to itunes.
drag file to desktop.
upload .m4a file to google drive.
create a link post in wordpress using "podcast" tag & create "podcast" category.
click on "entries rss" in wordpress, which takes me to the rss subscribe page (which is basically just my wordpress address with "/feed" at the end.
i copy this url.
go to itunes store > then "submit a podcast"
itunes gives me the error message "we had difficulty downloading episodes from your feed."
when i try to subscribe to my podcast in itunes, it does, but gives me no episodes available.
i went back into wordpress and changed settings/ reading settings to : "full text" from "summary"
still the same error message.
i added a feedburner step after wordpress but got the same errors. i don't think i should have to add feedburner.
wordpress seems to be encapsulating the rss, what am i doing wrong?
this so much easier when you could go directly from garage band to iweb to mobileme; i miss those apple days (also idisk).

if anyone has a super EASY process, i would LOVE to know what it is. EASY, meaning no html and also free. there are many free online storage systems available, many of which i currently use. the above process was just me trying to figure it out, if you have an easier method, please share. thank you so much!

Is there an easy way to replace spry menus with jQuery menu system?

I just learned that Adobe is no longer using spry or that spry does not work on mobile devices. My entire site (built in CS5.5 moved to CS6) is built with 3 different spry menu systems. I have been told about jQuery, and many other menu system options. I work in design view and can copy and paste code, read code etc...but cant write it to save my life. I cannot seen to understsand how a different menu software system will integrate with DW especially when I use design view. My question is, is there an easy way to change my spry menu's? I have 2 spry menu bars, spry tabbed menus on EVERY page and a spry accordian menu that repeats on all pages. I am working with a template I built, so hopefully it is an easy fix.
Any walkthrough help would be greatly appreciated. Below is the code for my template minus the div set up.

Is there an easy way to convert from a String with a comma, ie. 1,000.00 to a float or a double?
thanks,
dosteov

Like DrClap said: DecimalFormat. However, make sure you understand the Locale things, as explained at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/text/DecimalFormat.html (which refers to NumberFormat as well) and use them explicitly. Like
public class FormatTest
public static void main(String args[])
    try
      // see NumberFormat.getInstance()
      DecimalFormat fmt = new DecimalFormat();
      Number num = fmt.parse("1,000.01");
      System.out.println(num.doubleValue());
    catch(ParseException pe)
      System.out.println(pe);
}most likely seems OK on your system, but may print "1.0" (or even fail) on some non-English platforms!
When performing calculations, also see http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/JDCTechTips/2001/tt0807.html

Is there an easy way to create an portfoliopage on my site?

I like to know how i can do this the best? Im not so good in Dreamweaver.
this is my page where i like to put the portfolio in.
Ive got a almost 10 documents wich i want to put on my page.
i can make thumbnails from the documents for on the page.
Looking forward to your answer..
Regards

Thank you very much. The last one youve send me looks the most what i have in mind. With some thumbnails and when you click on it you see a larger document.

Is there an easier way to do this? Save As in Acrobat to a Specified Folde

CAN APPLESCRIPT RUN IN THE BACKGROUND?
Or is there an easier way to do this script? The script does what I need done - no problem, but every action happens on screen. Is there a more direct way to some of the steps? (Ideally so most of the action happens in the background. I will ALL-CAP what my thought process is).
*BASICALLY I GET JOB REQUESTS FROM DEPARTMENTS IN MY COMPANY ON AN PDF THAT I CREATED. WHEN I OPEN THE REQUEST, I RUN THIS REQUEST SO I CAN IMPORT IT INTO FILEMAKER PRO. IT IS OPEN IN ADOBE ACROBAT PRO 9.*
tell application "Adobe Acrobat Pro"
activate
end tell
*I SIMPLY SAVE EVERY REQUEST AS "REPORT". IT JUST RESAVES EVERY TIME A NEW REQUEST COMES IN. SO I WANT TO STREAMLINE THIS STEP BETTER AND HAVE IT JUST SAVE IN THE BACKGROUND TO THE SPECIFIED FOLDER.*
tell application "System Events"
tell process "Acrobat"
save
click menu item "save as..." of menu "File" of menu bar 1
keystroke "report"
keystroke tab
delay 1
keystroke "g" using {command down, shift down}
keystroke "/users/kellyf/documents/projects/pdf2fmp/ExportPDF"
keystroke return
keystroke "s" using command down
delay 1
keystroke "r" using command down
*I BELIEVE THIS STEP HAS TO HAPPEN LIKE THIS, UNLESS SOMEONE IS FAMILIAR WITH A BETTER WAY TO EXPORT FROM ADOBE ACROBAT TO A CSV/SPREADSHEET FILE.*
tell application "System Events"
tell process "Acrobat"
click menu item "Merge Data Files into Spreadsheet..." of menu 1 of menu item "Manage Form Data" of menu "Forms" of menu bar 1
keystroke return

Yes. Applescript can run in the backgound. The applications you run also need to be able to run in the background. You need to run scriptable applications & avoid simulating the keyboard & mouse. You need to run commands that are in the application dictionary.

You are simulating the keyboard. They need to run as you have done.

Is ther an "easy way" to rename my iweb pages?

Here is my dilema
I have a iweb site hosted on go daddy so I have to update via an FTP which as you know each time to re-publish to your folder it creates a new time stamp and MOST ftp clients then reupload the entire site...
Well I fould this prorgram called "webecho" thanks to James Steng
and I "finally" figured out that indeed it works just like updating to .mac change 1 image on 1 page >publish to folder> update and it only uploads that one image cool huh?
Here is the drawback you can't have any spaces in your page names so instead of a page called "About Me" you have to name it "AboutMe" (no space between "about & Me" which of course looks foolish in your navigation pane
So my question is this
Is ther an "easy way" to name your pages wihtout spaces ~BUT~ still have spaces in the navigation pane?
Thanks in advance!
and
Happy New Yerar to all the great folks in this group!
Jim

This gets very convoluted very quickly, but there actually is a way to eliminate spaces in your filenames and keep the spaces in the navigation menu...
There is another handy utility called "iWeb FTP Utility" that is available here:
http://www.brokenropesoftware.com/iWebFTPUtility
This is a command line tool that will strip out the spaces in your filenames AND alter the HTML references to these files to reflect the new "spaceless" names. There's no easier way of doing this.
So your workflow then becomes:
1. Design and "Publish to Folder" with iWeb
2. Run iWeb FTP utility against the published sitefolder
3. Upload to your server with WebEcho or similar FTP.
Since iWeb FTP Utility only changes the filenames and references after publishing, the navigation menu images never get touched and will still display the names with spaces!

Is there an easy way to import those misfortunate photos back into iphoto

I moved my iphoto library to my external drive so that both my laptop and imac can use the synced photo library.
... but now my imac iphoto says I can not open my iphoto library, because is from a newer version of iphoto. And the application then closes.
I figured out my newer laptop has a newer version of iphoto on it.
Imac iphoto version is 6.0.6
Laptop iphoto version s 7.1.5
I Downloaded iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This created a new library but says a lot of my pictures are lost. I can search and find them on my external drive and reimport, but there are a lot of them! Any suggestions?
I'd rather use the 6.0.6 on my imac than pay for an upgrade.
I just won't use my laptop's iphoto.
BUT, how can I get my 6.0.6 working again with all of my pictures in tact? Or is there an easy way to import those misfortunate photos back into iphoto painlessly?
Any other solutions??
Will Snow Leopard have the newest iPhoto included?
Thank you!
Kim

If you want to revert to iPhoto 6 then you have two choices:
1. Restore from your back up
or
2. Create a new v6 Library and start over.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 6* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'.
Go into the Old iPhoto Library (Right Click on the Library Icon and choose ‘Show Package Contents) and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the old iPhoto Library.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.
“Snow Leopard” is an OS Upgrade. While we have no idea what will be included with it, on past experience, no, it will not include a new version of iPhoto.
