Is there an easy way to use Dreamweaver?

I started my website 7 years ago in FrontPage and just purchased Dreamweaver thinking; in today's technological world aimed at 12 year olds, this has got to be easier than FrontPage or at least I'd have a head start since I created and have maintained my own 10-page website. Wow, was I ever wrong, Dreamweaver is strictly for people with computer degrees and only speak html. I'm told I have to html every dot, space, sentencing space, centering, etc. I paid $699 for the program, paid $250 to a web designer to just get my website into DW then teach me how to maintain it (got nothing), found another web designer, paid a $100 deposit, she "redesigned" my home page, told her that wasn't what I wanted (after explaining what I did want), never heard from her again. Just talked with a recent computer designer graduate, he wants $450 to get my website into DW and put in new navigation buttons. I know html, here's the site I created with NO training, just studying and learning FrontPage: www.nilesbottlestoppers.com
Some one, PLEASE, give me some words of encouragement because, right now I'm crying (literally).
Thanks,
Ruth

DW is pro-level software aimed at professional web designers/developers who are comfortable working with HTML, CSS and JavaScript code. It's a powerful tool and there isn't much you can't build in DW providing you have the necessary skills to use it.
On the other hand, Adobe Muse is consumer level software aimed at designers, hobbyists and non-coders. The price you pay for all that ease of use, however, is limited features and code that needs to be maintained in MU.   It might be all you need for now. Then again, if you want to add advanced features to your site later, you may be forced to switch away from MU which might be a worse place than you are right now.   I don't know.
Suffice it to say, a lot has changed in web standards and technology since FP was retired in 2007. Designs & layouts must cater to an ever growing list of new web devices ranging from smartphones and tablets to desktops and flat screen TV screens.
I don't know what your budget is. But for a small business web site, you really should contract with an experienced web developer (get references) who can re-build your site within a prescribed time frame to include a simple CMS (content management system) which you can use to edit the site yourself.
DW won't be much help to you unless you learn to work with code.   Code is not hard to learn. No computer or science degrees required. Just a few focussed hours and a little effort on your part will get you started on the path to success.

Is there an easy way to use MOVE when importing from card reader?

In Lightroom 1, I would hit File -> Import From Disk which would allow me to move photos from my card reader to the hard drive.
In Lightroom 3, the only option is the normal import dialog and in order to get the "Move" option I have to select "other source" and then scroll down the list to select the card reader in order to get the "Move" option. It's a pain to do it every time. (not to mention my wife will never do it and just use "copy").
So my question is, "Is there a way to get the Move option to be available by default on my card reader?"
It's been my workflow since 2004 to have the images deleted directly after I copy them off the memory card using Adobe software (Photoshop Album 2.0, Photoshop Elements 4, Lightroom 1.0). I'm really hoping there is an easy way to accomplish this in Lightroom 3. Otherwise I will be pretty disappointed.

function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
brianbjork wrote:
The reason I like the move command so much is that I know when photos are on my memory cards that the are not on my computer.
LR defaults to not importing suspected duplicates. so if there are still files on the card, they will be grayed out. That's how you can know.
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
brianbjork wrote:
What do you all use in your work flow to delete the pictures left on your memory cards after they are copied?
I have a shell file that removes the files from the card and ejects the disk. I keep it in my dock for easy access.
Others will tell yiou, though, to format in camera. Which is a good idea! I just like to keep my cards empty and ready.

Is there an easy way to use the VMware Studios Open Source download?

I noticed there was a relatively current open source download package for VMware Studio, so I downloaded it, hoping there were instructions on applying the new software to the appliance. The download was a tar.gz file, which appears to include source code for those OSS packages.
So, I am concluding that my hope that this was an update to VMware Studio was unfounded.
Is there any news, at all, about plans to update VMware Studio? It is obvious that a VMware-internal tool exists as they use it to create their own appliances which appear to have fixed some issues, such as IE10 access.
Thanks Dan

You do not need to invoke Finder to do this. Create a new empty Automator workflow and use the "Run Shell Script" option. Paste in the following....
mv ~/Downloads/* ~/.Trash
You can then save the workflow as an application, attach it as a Finder action or add it to the scripts menu, whichever you like better.
If you would like to bypass the Trash and just completely delete the Downloads folder contents immediately, then paste in this command:
rm -rf ~/Downloads/*

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)

If I have say 200 photos in an EVENT and I use 50 of them in an ALBUM and months later I'm happy with the ALBUM and want to trash the 150 extras in part to save space on the hard drive, is there an easy way to find which photos to delete?

If I have, say 200 photos in an EVENT and I use 50 of them in an ALBUM, and months later I'm happy with the ALBUM and want to trash the extra 150 photos, is there an easy way to know which 150 photos to trash? My idea is to not have hundreds of photos taking up space on the hard drive.
Thanks.

Various ways:
Easy one: Flag the ones you want to keep (do this in the Album - Select All and Flag)
Then:
File -> New Smart Album
Event -> contains -> Name of the Event
Photo -> Is Not -> Flagged
will find the unwanted 150.

Is there and easy way for Position control using analog input?

Hi Everyone,
I would like to set one of the axis with stepper motor using analog feedback to keep the set position which is coming from the analog input.
In other words I would like the stepper to move when the analog input changes. I need it as a "background service" so the rest of the motion could be easily controlled from the NI-Motion Assistant.
Is there any easy way to do this? Even complicated is ok but the control should be done by the NI Motion card not the PC processor.
Thanks,
Andras

please use the link below to get the motion example.

Is there an easy way of making DVDs using iMovie without iDVD?

I can't seem to make / share / export a dvd in iTunes that can be read in a dvd player. The new operating system doesn't support iDVD so I can't easily make a dvd. I seem to be able to create a file with an m4v extesion and it looks great on my Macbook... only the Macbook. I tried downloading two different conversion applications that could create an mp4 file but it isn't working and it is messy. Isn't there an easy way?
Thanks, Brigid

If you have an early 2011 MacBook Pro it would have come with Snow Leopard which did include iDVD. If you upgraded to Lion iDVD will still be there. Lion does support iDVD - i.e. it will still run on Lion. It's just that Lion no longer includes iDVD if you get it on a brand new system. So if iDVD is still there in your Applications folder it will still run under Lion.

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

Hi Eugene,

Is there an easy way to clear the contents of Download Folder?

Is there an easier way to clear out files (send to trash) from the downloads folder, other than dragging one by one? The downloads folder closes immediately upon dragging one file out.

You do not need to invoke Finder to do this. Create a new empty Automator workflow and use the "Run Shell Script" option. Paste in the following....
mv ~/Downloads/* ~/.Trash

I am looking to "move out" of my computer and into my wife's, is there an easy way to accomplish this task, keeping all my files and setting up a second user?

I just bought a new external 3TB hard drive for this task and want to keep my items seperate from hers for both our sanity.
I figured that I would do a time machine back up and use that to do the move part of things.
But as to setting up the new user on her computer I am just not sure if I can "tell" the computer to only use the new drive for my stuff and only acces the new drive for all things related to that new profile.
More then anything else I want to be able to say that all things that are hers have not been touched/acccesed/deleted by any of my actions. And that I am "confined" to the new drive.
I hope this makes sence.

I have a feeling there are music files in my folders that are not linked to iTunes but can't figure out how to import them without going through all 8800+ files. Is there an easy way to import all the files without losing the current playcounts
AFIK there isn't an easy way of linking up to a lot of dead tracks and retaining play counts etc, except by finding the dead tracks and repairing each link individually. The only exception to this is if there is a simple error in the path that can be fixed by a search and replace on the xml library file, then rebuilding the library. However it doesn't sound as though that would be a solution for you.
This MacMuse tip has a way of finding dead tracks if that helps.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=121967
It is much simpler to sacrifice the playcount information and just reimport your iTunes Music folder. Then you can eliminate the dead tracks with a script. One of the forum members has written one that you can find here:

Is there an easy way to filter a 2-d array based on the values of two of the fields?

Is there an easy way to filter a 2-d array based on the values of one of the fields. In my attached VI the output array has the following format:
TimeStamp        Ident                Frame Type        Bytes    Data
10:57:07.621   3AD00016   CAN Data Frame   8          0000000000000000
10:57:07.622   3AD00017   CAN Data Frame   8          000005E000000000
10:57:07.624   3AD00018   CAN Data Frame   8          0000000003300000
10:57:07.625   2DC00000   CAN Data Frame   8          0000000000000000
10:57:07.626   3AD00019   CAN Data Frame    4         0000030000000000
I would like to delete any rows that do not have an "Ident" between the values of 3AD00000 and 3AD0001E. So for the above data the fourth row would be deleted. The only way I can see to do it is to form a 1-d array. Is there a better approach?
Thank you.
Solved!

Hi chuck72352,
after you have sorted your data, you can use the InRange Function. Combined with a "search 1D Array" you'll get the range you really want.

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!
