HTML Snippets- I can't edit them!

Hey,
I've been having this issue since I deleted a bunch of files and folders (which I thought belonged to removed applications) from ~/Library and /Library.
What happens is, when I insert an HTML snippet, I see a small box that looks like it's for inserting text, but I can't edit any of the HTML. Clicking on the box has no effect. When I drag things like Google Maps and Countdown Timer onto a page, the same, obstinate box appears, and refuses to comply with any requests I make.
So I think what I need to do is delete the file ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain and recreate my site in iWeb. I'm pretty sure this is going to work, because I restored my system once, and after it didn't find my site, and created a new Domain file, I no longer had the problem (of course, after I moved Domain back to its previous location, I wound up having the same problem, again).
Anyway, I'm just wondering whether there's a simpler way to fix up this mess. Although I think my site could benefit form an overhaul.
Thanks!

Try quitting iWeb, deleting the preference - Home Folder/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iWeb.plist,
restarting your Mac, running Disk Utility to repair permissions and relaunching.

  • If I receive a document as a PDF or WORD Doc in an email, can I edit them.  As in, if the doc is a template, how do I open it and fill the template in?

    Can I edit a document that was sent to me, like a template?  I cant seem to figure out how to do this, I am a new MAC user

    If you look in App Store you will find Apple's own Pages which can read, edit, and export Microsoft Word compatible .DOC or .DOCX files. There is also another interation of the previously mentioned OpenOffice which is NeoOffice, NeoOffice uses the same open source kernel as OpenOffice, but wraps it in a Cocoa wrapper which provides access to virtually all of OS X's file and data managment features and is one of the fastest office suites avaiable for the Mac.

  • Where are the settings for blocking installation by websites stored, and how can you edit them?

    An external app (my work Lotus Notes webmail) wanted to install something and I accidentally clicked "deny" and "remember this", when I wanted to allow it. Now I have no idea where I can remedy this. Any ideas?

    Where do you click that button?
    Is that on a web page?

  • Can't edit html snippet

    I have numerous html snippets that work fine. However I can't edit them any more. When I click on the snippet in iWeb I used to get a window with the snippet code to edit. That doesn't happen any more. Same thing for new html snippets: No edit window to place code in. Don't know when it stopped working since I haven't tried editing snippets for several months.
    Thanks for your help - Volker

    Thanks. That was helpful. Deleting preferences or repairing permissions didn't help. Reinstalling did the trick. FYI: You can install iWeb straight from disk individually without Pacifist.
    After all of that I found out what had caused the problem in the first place: I had moved the iWeb application into a sub folder of the Applications directory. That seems to be breaking this feature only. Any thoughts on moving applications? Is there a best practice not to?

  • Trying to organise video clips but can not find them in iphoto under Movies but do appear idvd under movies.How can I get into iphoto movies section to edit and organise the video clips

    In iphoto '08 in my Library section "Movies" doesn't show as a seperate folder so to find my video c;ips I have to go through 13,000 photos and yet in iDVD they do show up in the media area. How can I edit them and put them into specific files?

    Tell me if a video has been recorded on its side! or even upside down, can you turn it round the proper way?
    If you have Quicktime Pro you can rotate the video. There's a plugin for iMoive that can rotate clips.  Go to MacUpdate.com and do a search for "rotate video" and you'll find several apps that can do the job and the plugin: MacUpdate: Search for '+rotate +video'

  • HTML Snippet does not exist as a Widget option in iWeb 09

    I have iWeb 09 on my machine. I'm trying to insert an HTML Snippet onto a page so i can drop in the code for a XSPF player.
    When i choose "Show Media", under Widgets there are only four, and HTML Snippet isn't one of them. I only have:
    MobileMe Gallery
    Google AdSense
    iSight Photo
    iSight Movie
    I also don't have the YouTube widget, the Google Map Widget--these i only know about by looking in support and seeing that these should all be there.
    Any thoughts as to how i can get HTML Snippet available in my media widgets? My site is almost completed and ready to publish. Without this feature it will be pointless to publish at all.
    Many thanks for any suggestions!

    Can you post the code you are using so that we can see what the problem is?

  • Can't edit info's

    Since my brother made a sincronization with my ITunes an my IPhone5 I can only change my informations in my itunes library, but not in my i-phone, so I change info's in my library and then sinchronize over and over evry time I add something. Just today I'm not at home, I'm at some friends' and with their Itunes if I do what i usually do I'll delete all the song I've added with my own personal computer, and when I click on "Iphone" In the upper-right part of itunes And click on some of my songs in my iphone, not in my library, all the info's I'd like to change look faded grey, and if i try to click on them i can't edit them anyway. I have the latest version af itunes, what can I do to edit them in my iphone too

    If your media is all greyed out and inaccessible, backup the device, then immediately restore it from the backup. The media needs to be in your library already.

  • Can't edit past events

    i have a client who showed me this strange problem today.
    she can view or delete past events for which she's listed as the organizer but can't edit them. i don't see any clear errors or notifications on the server to point me in any particular direction.
    for individual events added to her calendar with no attendees, she can edit the past events, just not if attendees are listed.
    any ideas? server's a g5 xserve running 10.5.5 for now. clients are 10.5.4-10.5.6. the client in question is on 10.5.6.
    i also still have an issue at the same client, outlined here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1964543

    Perhaps you've just updated your OS and now have the newer version of iCal which is ***** compared to the faster, more elegant older version. The older iCal presented every event's details in a ready to edit format just by clicking on the item in the calendar.
    Now you have to double click that item you're interested in (one two) to get a window that shows you the item's details. Then, to edit, you must click the 'edit' button (three) upon which another editable window will allow your event details to be edited. Finally, after finishing your edits, you must click 'done' (four). Yes, that's right, 4 clicks to do what used to require only the initial click to specify which event you wanted to edit.
    Four times as many clicks for a utility application that has no further improvements, only this annoying change from what was once a very efficient tool.
    I do hope a future "update" will bring back the elegance of the older version with some true improvements.

  • Can not edit my saved .ai files

    I created and saved several files today, both as .ai and as .pdf. Then I quit illustrator. Now when I re-open the files, they are opening as .ai* (with the astrisk) and I can not edit them. How do I edit them?!?

    Are your files saved on a server? Sounds like a permissions problem, save them to your desktop and open them and see if that works, if so, it's definitely permissions.

  • How do I share / unlink  the right and left channel, so I can work with them individually ?

    I use "Adobe Sound Booster CS5"
    I have a stereo soundtrack, which I only want to remove noise in only one channel (right).
    How do I share / unlink the right and left channel, so I can work with them individually ?

    When Soundbooth was first developed, it had a few extra things than what were not available in Audition. However, Audition remained the more high end sound editing tool. Soundbooth was locked to a multiple channel editing approach. In Audition, single editing is easy - you simply click the L or R at the right end of the sound channel to lock it and then you can edit the other channel only.
    Soundbooth has been discontinued and Audition now has taken its place from CS6 to the Creative Cloud.
    The above is some background info. To your current situation, you can use a workaround like:
    * Export your audio file to separate channels by File > Export > Channels to mono files.
    You will get 2 files with _L and _R suffix.
    You can then edit them separately. You can go from Mono to Stereo by the following step.
    Or
    * Choose - Edit > Insert > Channels  into New Multitrack file.
    That will separate the Left and Right Channels and add them to a new multitrack file.
    You can then click the Edit link at the top right of the channel to edit it.
    You can then save that file as a new audio file.

  • Can't edit Google Calendar events in iCal

    I am using Google Calendar's new CalDAV sync system and their "Calaboration" tool to sync my iCal (version 3.0.5, and I'm using Mac OS 10.5.2) with my Google Calendars, per the instructions on this page:
    http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?answer=99358#ical
    It seems to work ok in that I can now see my google calendar events in iCal. I can also add an event to that calendar in iCal, and it will sync to my google calendar. However, I can't seem to edit an event in iCal that was created on the Google Calendar web page. That is, all my events that I created in Google Calendar do indeed appear in iCal, but I can't edit them in iCal. I can edit events that I create for that calendar in iCal, but not ones I created in google calendar. Not a huge deal, but I was wondering if this is how it is supposed to work, because it seems a tad inconvenient.
    (I do have my e-mail address in my address book "me" card, so that's not the problem.)

    Yeah, I tried deleting the calendars in iCal and re-synching to them via Calaboration, but the same problem persisted.
    I did find the solution after a bit of experimenting, though. To solve it, I basically created a new calendar on Google Calendar, imported all my events from my old google calendar into it, then used Calaboration to sync iCal to the new Google calendar, and now I can edit events in iCal and GCal without problems. I don't actually know what the problem WAS, but this seems to have solved it. Maybe I made my original Google Calendar too long ago and it had some old bad settings I couldn't see? I dunno, but it doesn't matter now.
    For those who might have this same problem, here's how I transferred my old Google Calendar events into a new Google Calendar without losing anything: (You actually don't need to delete your old Google Calendar at all if you don't want to, so there's no reason to worry about losing your events.)
    1. In GCal, click the "settings" link at the top right of the web page. Then select the "Calendars" tab. Click the "Export My Calendars" link, which should be under your list of calendars, next to the cancel button. This will download a .zip file to your computer, containing all of your google calendars as individual .ics files. Go ahead and unzip them so that the .ics file for the calendar you want to duplicate is sitting in a folder somewhere on your computer.
    2. Now In GCal, click on the "Create" link on the lower righthand side of the "My Calendars" box, which is on the lefthand side of the screen.
    3. Create a new blank calendar and name it whatever you want. This is the blank calendar into which you will import your old calendar's events.
    4. Now, in GCal, click "Add" at the bottom right of the "Other Calendars" box, which is under the "My Calendars" box on the left side of the web page.
    5. Select "Import Calendar".
    6. Click "Choose File" and browse to the .ics file you want to duplicate on your computer.
    7. In the "Choose Calendar" pull-down menu, select the new, blank calendar you made in step 3.
    8. Click Import. This may take a few minutes, depending on the number of events you have in your .ics calendar file.
    9. Once it's done, look at the calendar to make sure your events all came into your new Google Calendar ok. It should look exactly like the original google calendar, but it will be a different color.
    10. NOW, use Calaboration to sync your iCal to the New Calendar you just made in Google Calendar.
    11. Once it's done synching, you should be able to edit events in the calendar in iCal.
