ISight, Cam Twist, Leopard and websites that you can do video chat in?

Hi,
Okay, I have family that can't use AIM or iChat, so we use Stickam for video chat. Before I upgraded to Leopard, I could use Cam Twist to entertain the kids (nieces & nephews & my own kids) with the effects. Since I upgraded to Leopard, Cam Twist isn't working the same way. About 70-80% of the cam view is pink in color (& there are no effects turned on). I made sure I have the most up to date flash player and just down loaded Leopard 10.5.1 in hopes Cam Twist would work, it doesn't. I have made sure I am using the most up to date Cam Twist as well. Does anyone know what the problem could be? I have made sure the settings in Stickam are set to Cam Twist also. I feel silly being so old & worrying about video chat and all, but the cousins (the kids) and I really enjoy the effects. It gives us more to chat about. If I just use iSight (built in) and set Stickam for the USB Cam it works great, even my DV Cam (via firewire) works get if set within Stickam settings, but Cam Twist isn't working at all. If any one can help, that would be wonderful.

You may need to contact the author of Cam Twist. I found the following on the site - http://allocinit.com/index.php?title=CamTwist
+"CamTwist is totally free and comes with no warranty *or support*. That being said, I welcome hearing about suggestions *and problems* you might have."+
*System Requirements*: CamTwist requires MacOS 10.4
No mention of Leopard! Therefore, not compatible?

Creating an offline website that you can share with other people

I want to create a dynamic document where my client can click on something on the document and it will link him to another document. I have created a document that can do this through dreamweaver in the form of a website. The only problem is that my client does not want the information in this documentation to be online. So I need to find a way to basically make my website available to him offline.
So in essence I need to be able to share my website through a more discrete form, such as dropbox or email. The problem with this are the links. I can obviously easily share all my html files to my client but all the links will be broken since he will place the other html files on his computer. I have thought of trying to put the files on dropbox and just link them to that but it does not seem to work.
Has anyone done something like this in the past? I think what I need to do is make the link look within its own origin folder or maybe I'm looking at this from the wrong angle.
I would say my level of competence with dreamweaver is about beginner to novice and I understand the fact that I could create a website with password protection or something similiar but that is not ideal.
Thanks

You hit the nail right on the head there.
I've created literally hundreds of HTML "local" site documents like that. I've run them from Flash Drives, CD-ROMs and Hard Drives. The KEY is to create the site in its own folder and make SURE all links point to files within that Root folder and don't have the "absolute" path. ("page.html" - NOT "File:///C/users/[username]/documents/sites/sitename/page.html")
Once you have it done, you can zip it or burn it or copy it to another drive and the links will work as long as all the files are in the root folder and subfolders.

Is there protection from viruses and hackers that you can put on IPad 2?

Is there a protection program against hackers and viruses for Ipad2 ?

I am constantly having my account hacked, I have to keep changing my password every few days, and constantly receiving emails from Apple ( or a fake Apple site) either telling me to reset my password or my password has been reset. I know that I had not changes my password in a few days but today I received yet another email to say my password had been changes, I had not changed it but of course I had to then change again. I am getting sick of Apples lack of security. I was thing of buying a Mac book but I am completely out off now as worried about security issues. I wanted to report these security issues to Apple but unable to find how to do this so if anyone knows please let me know.

Canu u add flash player to first generation iPad so that you can watch videos?

How do you watch videos on 1st generation iPad? Is says download flash player, but 1st generation won't accept it.

No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash. Adobe is not providing Flash for Apple iOS devices, and they no longer provide Flash for any other cellular phones. Flash is officially gone.
Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
A sample of Apps that can display some Flash content:
1. Puffin
2. SkyFire
3. Photon Flash
4. Browse2Go
5. Swifter
Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that."

Isn't it is so stupid that you can erase your iCloud account so quickly

I mean I thought someone robbed my iPad today I wasn't using find my iPad but I looked it from my brothers iPad and saw that you can just go to Settings/iCloud and then click erase.I want to change this feature because if someone robbers my ipad he can change the settings the time he gets it in his hands.I think apple should put a screen that asks your Apple ID and the password.

you can just go to Settings/iCloud and then click erase
Only if you haven't bothered to setup a passcode for your iPad, or setup the Restriction to prevent changes to accounts.
The features are there - you just have to use them.

Really stupid that you can't drag and drop photos from Finder into Events

There is no way in iPhoto to do what I want and need to to, to wit, drag and drop photos from the Finder into existing iPhoto Events.
It really doesn't make sense that you can't do this. First of all, calling these groups Events to begin with is not smart; in my case, a group of photos in a folder on the Finder is rarely all from one photo session or so-called "event"--- instead of Events they should just be called Groups or something, and you should be able to drop individual photos into them. I have thousands of family photos that were accumulated on my hard drives over the years, some scanned in from film negatives, slides, or prints, others from digital cameras, and when I have changed Macs and hard drives over the years, every time a folder of photos was moved from an old hard drive to a new one, or regrouped into various folders, the photos seem to have acquired new dates of origin, etc.
Anyway, what I mean is, if Events are all time based, then somebody like me who has thousands of photos with all sorts of dates of origin, mostly unrelated to the date that the photo was actually shot, is screwed. I have old photos with new dates of origin and other mismatches between photos and the dates when they were actually shot or scanned.
My gripe is, again, that when I find photos on my hard drives that belong in certain iPhoto Events that have already been created, I cannot just drag these photos from the Finder and drop them into the Events they belong in. Instead, the stupid program creates a new Event from each photo I try to drop into an existing Event. That means I have to chase these new photos all over the place inside of iPhoto, trying to figure out where each new photo (now called an "Event") has ended up, so that I can drag and merge it into the Event I wanted it to go into in the first place. A real pain in the neck. It simply takes too long to do this for each photo added.
What this means is that iPhoto is not going to be a practical way to organize for a person like me until Apple makes it possible to simply drop any photo from the Finder into an existing Event. There should be an option to allow that. I'm really surprised there is not one. <edited out by Hosts>
Tom

Tom, iPhoto will not overwrite photos with the same name. I have plenty of photos with the same name in the same event. Each photo most likely has an internal handler that manages the photo, and not just the name of the file.
I agree with you that this is sub-optimal, and (IMO) I think what happened is iPhoto 6 had rolls, and they came up with a really cool interface for mousing over those rolls, and decided it was more consumer friendly (and because film is a thing of the past) to call them events, rather than rolls. I think it was worth a shot, but they just slightly missed.
Right now in iPhoto08, any serious organization is done in folders and albums. Personally, I think they need to combine the two concepts -- the great "mouse over" view of events with the organization abilities of folders and albums. I'd like an albums view where I can mouse over the albums. Actually, Aperture 2's interface for organization is more functional than iPhoto, so I am hoping some of that benefit creeps into the next iPhoto release.
What I do is: I use events for high level grouping (like Winter 2007) and I organize folders and albums to break that down further ("trip to Montreal" "Christmas" etc.). But I do it backwards. I fill albums first, then I organize events.
When I drag in pictures to iPhoto, first I make the target album in iPhoto that I want to populate, then I drag the photo directly to that album (not to events). iPhoto automatically puts the photo into the album I created and also into a new event. Later, I go into events, right-click on this new event to "open event in separate window" then I move around the events view, to drop in the pictures from the "import" event I just created. If I move all the pictures into other events, iPhoto automatically deletes the event I just emptied. You could skip the event organization all together if you wanted to, but you'd lose the cool mouse-over feature, which can be handy.
One nice thing about having events AND albums is you can have the photo just once in iPhoto, in an event, but then have the photo appear in as many albums as you want (as well as projects and web galleries) all while only having one photo on your hard drive. So, there are benefits to events, but I think iPhoto is missing just a couple little bits of organizational ability to make it perfect. (and yes, I've submitted this all to Apple as feature requests)
Just in case you don't know -- events don't have any hierarchy. That is, you can't nest events. But you can have folders with subfolders, and any folder can contain albums. Albums cannot have sub-albums, and folders don't hold photos. Only albums hold photos, and folders (or sub-folders) hold albums. Try create some folders and albums and you'll get the hang of it. One other issue that Apple needs to address. When you create a new folder or album, it doesn't put it right where you want it, but rather puts it at the bottom of the list, so you have to drag it up to where you want it. Try it out, and you'll see what I mean, then submit it as a feature request to improve that.
I agree it's not perfect, but it's not too bad once you get used to it. And the benefits of working with the rest of the features of iPhoto is worth it. I'm just really hoping they do a few tweaks on the next release. They are near greatness here. They could just use a little nudge on the last bits. (in my opinion of course. Others may disagree, but I've talked to enough people who have the same issues you are having to know we are not alone on this).

You are attempting to use the iPhone on a wireless provider that is not

switch to a supported wireless provider. Which wireless provider are

Is there any talk about adding a device to the ipad so that you can use it as camera like ipad2

Is there any talk about adding a device to the ipad so that you can use it as camera like ipad2

James-
As Jeanne mentioned, it can work as long as the added device is a camera, and you have the iPad Camera Connection Kit. The kit contains two adapters, one for an SD camera card and one that accepts a USB card adapter or cable from your camera.
With regard to your basic question, Deggie is correct. It does NOT work like a built-in camera, so you can't use it for video calls. You have to take pictures with the external camera and transfer them to the iPad.

Did you buy PSE in the mac app store? If not, just go to Help>Updates in the editor and update camera raw and you should be able to open the raw files in PSE 12 directly without the DNG converter.
