Idisk public folder won't sync on .mac site

Help my local idisk used to sync perfectly to the main idisk mac site via my public folder, until I recently changed over from a dial up to wireless internet connection. Now isyn works ok, but I cannot upload anything from my local idisk public folder to the main idisk website on .mac.
Anyone with any suggestions would be welcome?
If it helps in any way, I could no longer receive e-mail on my mac.com e-mail address either as the wireless server and .mac settings are not compatible. So now I have to forward all my .mac.com e-mails to my g-mail address which downloads normally into entourage! I think this issue is probably linked to why my idisk won't work, but don't know how to fix it.
Thanks for any help

Have you checked and double-checked passwords (keychain) for this iDisk thing?
Sometimes KeyChain FirstAid helps. or Repair permissions(n DiskUtility).
Do you get error messages when you attempt a file transfer to iDisk?
What do you mean "wireless server and .mac settings are not compatible"?
Your statement that you no longer receive email on dot-mac?
It appears that your dot-mac account is getting mail, since you're able to forward it somewhere else.
Do you really mean that whatever mail program you use isn't able to login to the dot-mac mail account?
You're going to need to help us non-psychic folks with details like:

Looking for the Mac OS 9 iDisk Public Folder icon

I was wondering if anyone could help me out. I'm creating an icon set of Mac OS 9 icons for OS X. I've been able to locate the regular iDisk icon, as it's stored in the Mac OS 9 "System" file. But, what I can't seem to locate is the iDisk Public folder icon. I found a pic of what it looks via Google Images:

If anyone could help me out, that'd be awesome

Hi, Alex -
If you are accessing iDisk while booted to OS 9, you are probably using the utility Goliath to do so.
The icon you reference looks much like those in the set used by Goliath, which can be found in the icl8 resource in the Goltiath program.
Tip - in OS 9, when you copy-paste an icon to a folder to give the folder a custom icon, an invisible file named "icon" is created and placed in the folder. This invisible file contains the "icl" family of resources for the custom icon. This resource is easily opened using ResEdit, and perhaps by other icon manipulation utilities, and eliminates a lot of the clutter associated with opening a program in ResEdit to get to the icl resources.
Because of changes to the icon formats ResEdit itself no longer works well in OS 9.1 and later for alteration or modification of an icon. However, there is a utility that will allow you to create custom icons or modify existing ones -

IDisk Public folder access

I'm attempting to give others browser access to my public folder. Everything works per the directions below except that the public folder password doesn't work. It's necessary to use my dot-Mac password to reach my public folder! Has anyone else seen this?
"Mac or Windows users who are not MobileMe members can access your iDisk by opening a web browser and entering: public.me.com/[YourMemberName], and if necessary, entering your Public folder password."

I have the exact problem mentioned above.
I have changed my System Preferences — MobileMe — iDisk — Your iDisk Public Folder — Password-protect your public folder PASSWORD to a NEW PASSWORD that is not my ACCOUNT PASSWORD and it won't take.
I have tried to access my public folder with the NEW PASSWORD but it only responds to my ACCOUNT PASSWORD.
I've reset it the password many times, restarted many times and have tried accessing the public folder through Safari and Firefox.
I'd prefer to have a separate password for my public folder.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Share iMovie 08 files via iDisk Public Folder

Does anybody know the best way to share iMovie files via the public folder of my iDisk? I'm trying to share videos of HS football games using this method. The files are 250-400 MB in size. Anyone have any ideas?

You would send the "link" to your QuickTime file stored in your iDisk Public folder.
The URL syntax would be:
http://homepage.mac.com/accountname/.Public/filename/fileextension.
Ask your visitors to copy (don't click) on the link. Then open QuickTime Player and "Open URL" (File menu) and paste the URL.
One of mine as an example:
http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/.Public/RedneckTexasChristmas.mov
You can also use simple XML syntax to create a QuickTime Media Link file that allows more features (full screen, autoplay and quit when done and even embed URL "links" into the file.
Another example:
http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/.Public/RedneckTexasChristmas.qtl
Clicking the link above will download a very tiny file and then link to the source video (and the additional features).

How to mp3files, from iTunes, to iDisk public folder etc.

Greetings:
I need to upload unedited sound files to my .mac iDisk public folder for download from the sound editors.
How do I do this from iTunes. When I drag & drop, it goes through the motions of copying the files from iTunes, to the iDisk folder, yet nothing is actually transferred.
It is necessary to use iTunes because FCP will not compress in MP3, and the zipped aiff, although appearing as 4.9mb, is not allowed by iDisk (2G) as being 'too large of a file."
Suggestions are appreciated. Thank you.

Nordicdogs
1. First export the music file to the desktop, then try move it to the iDisk.
2. The 'to large a file' message can occur if the File Permissions are screwed up. However, fixing permissions with Disk Utility only works with System Files, so Download BatchMod from
http://macchampion.com/arbysoft/
And apply it to the iTunes Music Folder.
Regards

Idisk public folder with password inaccessible via Safari

My idisk public folder is password protected.
No one (at least using a Mac) can access it using Safari.
They can, however, access it from a Mac using FireFox. (I haven't tried IE).
Is this a known bug. I recall it happening pre-Leopard, as well, so I don't think it's Leopard specific.

IPod Classic won't sync to Mac

My iPod Classic 160 GB won't sync to Mac snow leopard, running iTunes 10.5.1. It was fine until I tried to mount my Mom's iPad2 and her iPod Classic 80 GB so that I could load content onto her devices. Note: both her devices are attached to my iTunes account, so loading content from my account is legit, even though it apparently sent my own iPod into a tailspin.
Now, even in disk mode, iTunes won't recognize the iPod. It simply shows up on the desktop. I have tried the four or five "Rs", but as the device doesn't show in iTunes AT ALL, I cannot restore it. The iPod-based reset solves nothing.
I purchased my current iPod a few months ago to replace an older iPod classic which gave up the ghost after exhibiting some of this behavior.
Help!

Someone please help me before I go potty!
I am having a similar problem to "Bluebell"'s. Suddenly over the last couple of weeks my iPod Classic 160GB (which has been working fantastically since I bought it 2 years ago) has been acting up. Without going into the total history, the result is that now, when connected (and even though the window on the iPod tells me the device is connected), the iPod icon does not show on the desktop of either of my Macs nor does the iPod show up in iTunes. I have reset the iPod dozens of times and searched high and low on Google for helpful suggestions, but with no luck.
I breathed a sigh of relief when I read your suggestion, Bilbo_cheshire, and tried it immediately, but sadly it doesn't work. This is what Disk Utility tells me:
Verify and Repair volume “Nigel & Lau's iPod”
Checking Journaled HFS Plus volume.
Checking Extents Overflow file.
Checking Catalog file.
Invalid sibling link
Rebuilding Catalog B-tree.
The volume Nigel & Lau's iPod could not be repaired.
Error: Filesystem verify or repair failed.
I can see that Disk Utility gives me the options of "Erase" and "Restore". Should I take either of those routes?

Idisk public folder

Question about iDisk Public Folder Security

Is it possible to determine which folders in my iDisk's Public Folder are accessible to certain people.
I am directing different people to my Public Folder, so I want some folders to be off limits to some, but accessible to others.
Is that possible?
Thanks

In addition to what QTK says, note that the whole issue becomes moot in a few months. In June, I believe, Apple has said that MobileMe will disappear, taking with it things like your iDisk. You'd be better off starting to use something else now, rather than learning new things about the iDisk that will be irrelevant soon. Dropbox is an excellent alternative.

Can i connect to my idisk public folder and download?

is this possible? i want to download some mp3s in my public folder or documents

Jullian,
So you have to mount your iDisk on your desktop and go directly to it with something like Air Share? I've always just worked with a transfer folder on my hard drive/desktop. Will this let you access ALL levels of files on your iDisk - not just your public folder?
I wonder what new capabilities Apple is talking about getting for accessing your iDisk from a iPhone/touch.

Icloud contacts won't sync on mac after 10.8.2 update

I have a Mac Mini 2011. I just downloaded 10.8.2 last night. This morning, I am trying to sync icloud contacts and they won't sync. I select the "contacts" checkbox in the icloud settings. Exit out. Go into contacts, and I only have the group "on my mac". When I go back into icloud to see if Contacts is checked, right as I open icloud, I see the Contacts checkmark disappear.
Any ideas how to fix?

PFDuke it looks like you maybe guessing that you have Exit Code 15 based off the fact that the installer did not launch. I would recommend reviewing your installation logs to determine the exact error. You can find details on how to accomplish this at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.
