Inserting music track into iWeb site

Hallo
Can anyone tell me how to insert some music into my website at http://www.peterdewitscafe.co.uk? Specifically, I would like to play a track I have recorded in realPlayer. I have the program icon on my desktop, but I dont know how to copy it into a page of my site.
Thanks

First issue should be the author of the file and the permission to use the work in your pages. If you didn't create it you must ask for permission to use it.
iLife includes GarageBand and you can find some fun in making your own audio files.
It's difficult on a Mac to convert .ra (Real Audio) formats to QuickTime formats and iWeb only uses QuickTime.

Inserting MobileMe Videos into IWeb

I have three questions about inserting MobileMe Videos into iweb.
1) I used the "insert from MobileMe" command in iWeb and it allows me to insert a video but I can't change the size of the video. Do you know how I can change the size.
2) I have some movies I have uploaded to the gallery via iMovie and some I uploaded via the mobileme site. The ones via iMovie I can easily insert like I mentioned in Q1 but the others I uploaded are put into an album and iWeb doesn't allow me to select the video I want to insert. It only allows me to insert the whole album which is a small box with links to the album. I want to choose the video to insert into the page. Any ideas How?
3) Is there a way to insert the video from mobileme using the Html Snippet? If so, how?
Thanks
Neil

You can use the [OBJECT/EMBED|http://htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/special/object.html] code for inserting media in a page.
When you know the location of the movie you can create a path to it.
Your webgallery is in iDisk>Web>Sites>_gallery>100999>Movie.

Iweb/iphoto: not able to put photos into iweb site unless named by me!

This is wierd, surely this cant be right. I am building a site in iweb. Sometimes I can drag the photo in no problem, to drop it on the page - any type page, doesnt have to be a Photo /Albums page.
But other times, only the name of the file and a box comes onto the page- no actual photo. Seems to be when the name of the photo file is from the camera, because photos named by me seem to be ok. (But not always! )
Other times, the photo I'm dragging just springs back.
Please can someone tell me what's happening and how to get round! Becuase I am stuck - I cant put the phtos I want into my website.
(I find iphoto pretty annoying anyway - I prefer the way I used to organise my phots on pc, more logical with me naming the folders. I get in such a muddle- it's so much easier to orgaise photo files in Finder, but they still end up messy in iphoto because it doesnt recocgnise the changes Ive just made with Finder! arrggghhhh!!!)

Have all your photos been taken with your camera, if so, they are all jpgs. You can take them from iphoto and place them on to the desktop into a folder. They should all work when you place them into iweb. I have been able to drag and drop illustrator files, photoshop files and jpgs, all which were photos in the first place. It shouldn't matter what they are.
The ones that don't work have you manipulated them in photoshop?

Combiining music tracks into one album

I recently recorded a few tracks from a CD album into my iPod Touch and each track shows up on my music screen as a separate album (all showing the same album cover art). How do I combine these tracks into one album/ help!

Welcome to AD!
Usually, they all need to have the same exact tags for Album & Album Artist.
Or maybe the "Part of a Compilation" checkbox is giving problems.
This article has some good examples

Moving existing Blogger blog into iWeb site

I have an existing web site and am recreating it using iWeb
This includes a blog of some years which is created via Blogger.
Can I import my blogger blog (or the code from it) into an iWeb page so that it has the same look and feel?
I'd also wnat to ensure that whenever I publish changes to the iWeb site that it does not overwrite the Blogger Blog page - is this possible?

Keith ~ iWeb doesn't have an import capability. And even if it did, I would recommend you stick with Blogger — that way you'll avoid recurring problems such as these:
Changed theme on main blog page, lost all entries
Lost two years of blog comments
...iWeb's blog is simply not a robust one — see the following thread started by a concerned person which has a satisfactory ending with a non-iWeb blog:

HT5071 Inserting Music files into an Ebook

I'm about to publish a book that will be available on IBooks but I am not publishing via Apple.
I recall seeing a way to insert music files in an Ebook, which is my desire. I'm speaking of music available on Itunes that either the reader can buy or I can possibly insert into the Ebook. Is anyone aware of how to do this?

Indeed, ebooks can play audio.

Deleting itune music selection from iweb site

(New & non techie) iWeb Q: Dragged itunes music sel. onto first page of iwebsite. Gray box that went on top of page then eliminated first-page photo in background. Went through "Inspector", Quick time, but could not get it to work.(song play) Would like to get itunes song OFF of site as it is causing problems. I.e. On all other computers opening my web page, a prompt comes down entitled: "AUTHORIZE COMPUTER which then reads beneath: _"This computer is not authorized to play (the song)" if you purchased in itunes then open itunes and auth this computer to play by entering your apple id and pw"_ and I can't give that out to everyone that uses another computer. (not all my friends want to do this but its also messing up their pc or macs(freezing in some cases until they manage to click out of the AUTH COMP box drop down. My question is: How can I just delete the whole itunes song / quick time prompt from the site... period ...(until I can take a class in how to do this without ruining my site?) One added note: The photo that I REposted covered up the gray box and I can't find it.. (even though I went to top of tool bar and clicked all the "back to front, front to back items...) the one that I originally dragged the song into and while the photo is back,(REposted) there is a Q- time bar at the bottom of the photo (which suggests that the photo is occupying the gray box anyway?? Any help would certainly be appreciated. Sincerely, Eugene PS: if needed: "[email protected]"

Click on the item in the iWeb page until there are four squares in the for corners, i.e. select it, and hit the Delete key.
You can only put none DRM audio tracks on a web page. Any protected file from the iTunes store will not be permitted.

How can I prevent downloading of music from an iWeb Site?

Can someone please tell me if it is possible to disable downloading of a video or music from a site created using iWeb?
I am new to this and don't even know what questions to ask, however, I want to create a site where music and/or videos can be heard/viewed but not downloaded from the site.
I have tried to research this and learned that perhaps a program like +iWeb Enhancer+ or +iWeb More+ can help me, but I'm not sure. I think I need to be able to access the code to make some changes. Is this correct? Is it something relatively easy to do?
Thanks!

The javascript file (.js) is just a text file and you can use any plain text editor to open, edit and save it. The key word is plain text (not rtf).
For QuickTime content iWeb uses the older object/embed tag code so there are two places in the code that require the additional code. The first is in the object tag (used only by Internet Explorer on PC's). They use param (parameter) tag code (name and value).
You would enter param name="kioskmode" value="true" (must include the quote marks) in the object tag area. To keep it simple just set the insertion point before the object code closing tag (/>).
In the embed tag code you would insert kioskmode="true" before the closing embed tag code.
While you're editing this file you may also want to change autoplay="false" to "true" so viewers don't have to click the controller to start playback.
Save the file making sure not to append the .txt extension to the file if using TextEdit.

Inserting AIM links into iWeb

As you know the HTML for inserting AIM links is aim:goim?screenname=YOURNAME&message=sup+man! So I was wondering how to set this up in iWeb if it is even possible.

You could modify the files outside of iweb, but I suspect the next time you published anything with iweb, it would see the file differs from the one you have made with iweb and change it right back again. I suppose you could move the modified file and all the other files associated with the page to another location and delete the page from iweb, but I couldn't be sure

How do I loop music on my iweb site? Quicktime on Inspector is grayed out, so I cannot check the loop function.

When I try to have music loop on my iweb photo page, it won't loop. You have to click on it to start it when you go to the page, but then the music finishes before the slideshow is over. I have done it in the past by checking auto loop in Inspector, but now my inspector options are all grayed out. I am wondering why??
Is this a bug? My other iweb photo pages have looping music.
Thanks, K

You have to click on the audio file on the iWeb page before the QT inspector pane will be active. Have you clicked on/selected the audio file before going to the QT inspector pane?
If to then try the following:
delete the iWeb preference files, com.apple.iWeb.plist and com.apple.iWeb.plist.lockfile, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
Click to view full size
launch iWeb and try again.

Inserting Google map into iweb page

Hello
I have just bought iWeb 2, and used it to start a website at http://web.mac.com/peterdewit/toymaker/Home.html. (it comes up if you leave the end bit off!)
I followed what seemed to be incredibly simple instructions to create a Google map. It looked so easy I thought it was too good to be true. Unfortunately that turned out to be the case!
After more than one hour I gave up. A map of 1 Infinite Loop Cupertino California was determined to remain as the star attraction of my Location page. Even my wooden Royal Danish Life Guard and Grenadier Guards Drum Major couldn't remove it!
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
Any help gratefully accepted.

Here's a wild guess...
Sometime ago, I read in this forum about somebody having problems with the default email address used by iWeb for the "email me" button. It seems to get this from your personal information in "Address Book" which you filled in when you first opened the application.
If you didn't do this, it is probably still using the Apple Computer Inc. information.
Try trashing the Apple entry and make sure your own "user" one is up to date with your correct address, email etc.
I hope this helps - I DID say it was a wild guess!

Problem inserting audio track into timeline

Sorry, I'm a newbie, and I'm sure this is a dumb question -- but I can't seem to answer it myself.
Working with the latest Windows CS6 update and 1080/60p video from my Panasonic AVCHD camcorder, I find the only way I can move a clip from the Source Monitor to the Timeline is by dragging and dropping. Any other method (clicking on the "insert" icon, keyboard shortcuts) moves only the video, leaving the audio behind.
What am I doing wrong, or what do I not understand?

Okay, that sent me in the right direction. Now I understand.
Thank you!

I'm trying to add my pinterest board to my iweb site.

I'm inserting the code Pinterest's widget builder is generating for me into an html snippet. But once I publish the site, nothing is showing up on my site except a link to the board on Pinterest. The space where the board should be showing is blank.

Many thanks for the input, Wyodor.
I did go to: http://business.pinterest.com/widget-builder/#do_embed_board to create a widget to insert a board into my site.
Here's the code that pinterest generated that I placed into an html snippet in iWeb:

Editing Music Tracks

Hello
I have just starting to play with fcp x. As a long time broadcast editor I thought it was about time to learn it.
I have done a short showreel for a friend which is a great way to learn! I put some pictures down in story order and then put a track of music down to cut too.
I needed to edit the music down to length, but I could find no way to add an in point or out point to the music track, all it did was add the in points to the video (and its audio) track above. In the end I used the razor blade and cut the music where I wanted and then dragged it back to make the edit. Also I could not get the music track into trim mode.. Is this the only way to edit music tracks? Any info would be great.
Thanks a lot
Rob

No need to use the blade tool. Just trim the audio clip by dragging the edge of the clip. With snapping turned on, it will be easy to align the end points.
