Is it possible/legal to include content from other websites ?

How would I go about importing some content from another external website into my iweb site ?
Is it possible to use something like the web clip function from Safari 4.0 ?

Mark ~ Some sites have a _Terms of Service_ which says:
"You may not (...) frame any portion of our Services or Content, or reproduce, reprint, copy, store, publicly display, broadcast, transmit, modify, translate, port, publish, sublicense, assign, transfer, sell, loan, or otherwise distribute the Content without our prior written consent."
Whether that kind of notice has any legal basis, I don't know. And to complicate matters, the legal situation differs, e.g.
_U.S.A. — Digital Millennium Copyright Act_
_E.U. — Copyright Directive_
...Unless you're a lawyer (I'm not), if a site doesn't openly state that you can use its content, perhaps it's better to always have prior written consent before doing so. And if you don't get a reply to your request, put some small print in your site attributing that content to the external site and mention that you've attempted to contact them without success. Also keep copies of your consent requests in case you need to later prove that you made a good faith attempt to respect others content.

    is it possible to control itunes dj from other computers on the same network?  we have a computer running itunes connected to our speakers here at work, and we'd like to be able to control it through the other comptuers on the network.  is this possible, or do you have to use iphones/ipads/etc?

    AC is corret you can do that.  It might work a bit better for you if you use a wired connection vs a wireless one for the ATV's.

    How do I hide my mailbox and mail contents from other users, leaving other functions of my iMac accessible?

    You don't have to shut down the computer to switch accounts. All you do is click the Apple symbol in the upper left and choose Log Out and that's it. You can also set up Faster User Switching by:
    1. Open System Preferences - Accounts
    2. Click Login Options
    3. Check the box called "Show fast user switching menu as" then choose from either icon, short name or name.
    Then when someone wants to switch users they can. The advantage of this method is if you are have a document open and don't want to close it the document will remain open. If the other user attempts to shut down the computer they can't until you have logged out thereby saving all your data.
    A very simple and elegant solution.

  • Problems With Quicktime content from Apple website

    Hi
    I have problems visualizing various sections of the Apple website that contains quicktime content. (Safari thinks Quicktime is not installed)
    for example can't see shuffle giuded tour
    http://www.apple.com/ipodshuffle/guidedtour/tour/large.html
    or the video for the iphone os 3.0
    http://events.apple.com.edgesuite.net/0903lajkszg/event/index.html
    from the safari error console i can see there are runtime javascript errors on calls to
    'AC.Detector', whose result is non an object, as you can see here

    Any idea?
    Thanks
    PS: i have no problems with quicktime from other websites, or from other parts of
    Apple.

    i don't know
    it could be an issue with something else, maybe iTunes

  • Is it possible to download a book in Ibooks format from other websites to your itunes account on the PC?

    I am currently writing a manual in Ibooks author for my company that is going on the company web server; the server requires a common access card to access the server. Because of this downloading the Ibook directly to an Ipad isn’t an option.
    The work around I was thinking of using is logging on a pc with your common access card that has an itunes account, downloading it to the pc and then syncing it via the cable to the IPAD.  is this possible?
    I have read under the FAQ section, “Can I download books from other websites?” the answer says you can download ePub and PDF files on your Mac or PC, but doesn’t mention the Ibook format? 
    When I was on Itunes I noticed you could download books to your PC in the Ibooks format. But it doesn’t mention anything from another server.

    Yes, you can use another server for .ibooks format.  You can also directly email it if your system can take the size.

  • Air for Android - Receiving content from other apps

    I would like to enable my app to receive text content from other apps. Everything is working except the invoke event is missing the shared text. Do I need to add some extra permissions to receive content from other apps or do I need to modify something else?
    The XML code below is from the Android examples.
    XML: Manifest:
    <activity android:name=".ui.MyActivity" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <data android:mimeType="text/plain" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>
    Air: Handling the invoke event:
    NativeApplication.nativeApplication.addEventListener(InvokeEvent.INVOKE, onAppInvoke);
    function onAppInvoke(event:InvokeEvent):void {
    info.text = event.arguments.toString()
    info.text += event

    Thank you.Unless the website provides an interface to their data, you are most likely not even allowed to do this. There is only one way to find out: contact them and ask about it or look around their website if their is a manual that describes how to do it. If there is such an interface, it will usually be some kind of web service (such as a SOAP interface).

  • Is it possible to copy page content from one book to another?

    Have 2 books in a single Aperture project.
    Need to copy one page content from book 1 to an empty page of book 2.
    Tried all my best, but couldn't manage.
    Anybody please advice.

    At the time the "copy content" only works between pages in the same book. Even if you drag the involved images to the new book, copying content between the two books don't work. This I believe could be a bug and do hope it is corrected soon.

  • Ability to buy unique local content from other iTunes stores

    Hi,
    I recently realized that iTunes store that looked modern and incredible only few years ago now does not serve my needs.
    Let me explain in details and may be this information can help Apple to improve their store and meet my needs.
    I am 44 years old.
    I was born in Moscow Russia back in 1969.  My childhood and my youth years were in Soviet Union and in Russia.
    After graduating from university my first job was in Singapore. I lived in Singapore with my family for 12 years. My two daughters were born there.
    Right now my family and I are residents of Canada.
    As you can see,  there are few significant portions of our lives bonded to different cultures.
    I believe we are not unique. The World is small. People goes to school in one country, goes to university in another, works and getting married in third and settles down and retires in fourth…
    iTunes store provides great possibility for us to download music, songs, movies… but only from the iTunes store of the country we live.
    Apple dictates what we can or can not listen and watch using iTunes by its unfair policy:
    REQUIREMENTS FOR USE OF THE ITUNES SERVICE
    *The iTunes Service is available to you only in Canada, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance.*
    I could understand why Apple does this. Because the same HD movies can be sold for $20 in one country and for $10 in another and Apple does not want people to switch stores and get a better deal.
    But I am talking about completely different issue here.
    Each country produces exclusive media content which is purely local.
    This could be a localized version of Disney cartoon or a song in local language.
    What I really want is to be able to download any exclusive local content from any iTunes store around the World.
    The price can be different and it could be related to where I live. That's fair.
    What is not fair is for Apple to tell me that I can not download russian movies and russian songs from a russian iTunes store because I am no longer live in Russia.
    Here is what Apple  can do to resolve this issue:
    1. Provide different audio language sound tracks for movies.
    If I am buying a Disney movie from Canadian iTunes store I would like to be able to buy it in English, French and Russian. Because my family members have different preferred language. You can charge for additional sound track a small amount, say $1.99
    I does not cost anything and no content needs to be produced. It's just the way you package it.
    2. Allow to mark iTunes content as an Exclusive local content. For instance a russian folk song or a russian documentary.
    Make a special section "Russian exclusive content"  or "Singapore exclusive content" etc
    Allow anyone in any country to buy this content.
    All this makes perfect economical sense and also fair to your customers.
    Any feedback or suggestions are appreciated.
    I hope this information is useful to improve iTunes store in future.

    <Email Edited by Host>

    Most of the people on these forums, including myself, are fellow users - you're not talking to iTunes Support here. I've asked the hosts to remove your email address from your post.
    It's not Apple's choice where to sell an item, the content providers control that. All content is licensed to Apple to sell by the content providers on a country-by-country basis, so each country has to have its own store - if the record company, film studio etc was happy for the item to be in your country's store then they will grant Apple a license to have it there. Similarly it's up to the film studio to put extra audio tracks and/or subtitles on their films.
    If there is a particular film etc that you would like to be added to your country's store then you try requesting that it be added, but utlimately it's the content provider's choice : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • Is it possible to copy security Groups from other user in CMC

    Hi,
    Usually in SAP security we can create user ids with the option of copy the roles from other user. means we can create user id Y same as like X. then Y will get all roles and security same as X.
    it is possible the same in BO also, is there any way for this.
    Regards,
    Sri

    Not that easily - I agree. However, normally permissions are granted to groups - not users. So as long as User Y has the same group memberships as User X it should be the same.
    There are also 3rd party tools available that can make this work and of course if you like coding - using the SDK you can build a tool yourself .
