IWeb 1.1 does NOT optimize site for faster loading

I duplicated my iWeb site folder which at the time was 15Mb in size.
I then updated iWeb to 1.1 and exported my site to a folder without making any changes to my site. I had heard somewhere that I would see a dialogbox asking if I want to update my site for the new improved loading times in iWeb 1.1. Didn't see any of that.
Well I then looked at the newly exported folder and compared it with the old one. The old, as stated above, is 15Mb in size - the new "optimized" one is 16.3Mb
How come? Is it once again only .Mac users that will see the full benifit of this update?

I agree. I have images-as-graphics on all of my pages and in v1.1 they are still huge .png files converted from my original small .jpg files (eg .jpg original 90kb, iWeb converted .png 444kb). After downloading v1.1 I've only managed to get my site to upload once this evening to .Mac (and got the picture error message like everyone else) and now it won't publish at all. I've been experimenting with publishing to a folder and have turned off shadows, reflections, lines etc. The .jpg files are still converting to .png. The only ones that don't are the photo album thumbnails on the template photo page which stay as .jpgs.
This is horrible. I'm building a little site with iWeb for a friend who is on dial up and it's embarrasing getting him to have to wait twenty minutes everytime he looks at an update.

Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a pasword in the view password window and now it not asking me to remember and also it is not remembering the password when I go

Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a password for a site that was not remembering the correct password for the "view password" window and now it does not guess the password and does not remember the password for that site. All other sites are being remembered.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After I deleted the password from the view password window.

The saved password feature worked well, but the site I had saved the password for required that I change the password. I have found no way to update the password in Firefox. After I deleted the saved password, Firefox did not ask if I wanted the new password saved. When this happened before, I removed and re-installed Firefox, and then it worked. I hope there is another way to update a password.

IWeb photo gallery does not work in IE

Does anyone know why iWeb photo gallery does not work in Internet Explorer but does work in Safari, Chrome & Firefox?

What kind of a response are you looking for with a post like that, seriously? Change this or that in your unprovided code? Use this or that gallery, which may be the gallery you're already using. We don't know because you haven't mention specifics, provided any code, or any other relevant information to produce a helpful response. All you've said is you click a link and it's white. Kudos.
We're not mind readers and no one is looking over your shoulder watching what you're doing. Get it together... and when you do, post a link so we can see what you're talking about. jeez.

Does iWeb automatically compress photos for faster loading? Or should I do it first? Thx

Hi everyone, when I look at the large photo in the "white" theme's Welcome template, I wonder when I drag and drop one of my photos in, does iWeb compress the photo for faster loading? Or should I compress them before adding to site?
By "compress" I mean, make photo file size smaller! :)
Thx! :)

In iWeb Preferences you can optimze images on import. But I always scale most of my images to 800 x 600 pixels prior to importing. I do this in Graphic Coverter which also makes the image files smaller by taking unneeded information out of the file, which also reduces the file size.

Content scope document library does not return result for non farm administrator

Hi
I have a situation where I had to go with a unique permission applied subsite to store 1000 documents in the document library. This site has a set of 50 users. I was able to create content scope and library path for search. It returns results for me(creator/owner/administrator)
however if I add other users as contributor or full permission, even after full crawling it does not return result for others.
I saw some article that security broken site wont be indexed normal way and to include and I did that as well but no result for other users. I always get result.
Please suggest if there are any specific security permissions that I need to include, so the document library target search will return result for others.
Thanks
Shri

Hi Shri,
For administrator search results, it looks like the documents could be crawled and searched.
For other users you grant full control permission on subsite with unique permission where you store 1000 dcouments in document library, please make sure these 50 users have access permission(at least view permission) on documents from the
library, then test again.
Also test if users search on search center site without search scope, see if it's scope issue or search web part issue.
If above doesn't work, please check ULS log for related useful information around the time when users search the documents, there should be more info to verify if issue is related to unique permision.
Thanks,
Daniel Yang

CQWP does not return result for a specific query when filtering on a managed metadata field.

Hi,
We are facing a serious production issue. We've search the web extensively but to no avail.
Problem:
CQWP does not return result for a specific query when filtering on a managed metadata field.
ULS log:
The Uls logs provides 3 different messages that I could relate to every time the query is executed. The last item(level Medium) is displayed 14 times. For readability I've moved the ULS logs to the bottom of this question.
Query:
The query is as follows:
(I've translated this from dutch so pardon any typo's)
Query: (top selection) Display items from all sites in the site collection
ListType: Documentlibrary
Contenttype:
Items from this group:Custom Document Contenttypes
Items from this content type: Verklaring
Filter: Soort is equal to X
extra info: the field soort (Type) is a managed metadata field that was assigned the value X
Managed Metadata Structure:
-managed metadata service
-Contoso
    -Enterprise Taxonomy (term set)
      -Document (term)
        -Verklaring (term)
          -Soort (term)
            -x (term)
EXTRA INFO:
When I modify the filter to filter on Title the CQWP DOES return the correct document!
When I modify the query settings to search a specific library the CWQP also does return the correct document! (In this case I am filtering on a managed metadata field).
QUESTION:
Why doesn't the CQWP return the document when filtering on a managed metadata field over the entire site collection.
Why does the CQWP return the document when filtering on a managed metadata field over a single library.
(The type of information the CQWP should return (Soort:x) is stored in a dozen document libraries!)
Here are the ULS logs.

Hi,
while digging through the logging (again) I found some extra logging regarding the same correlation id (see details below).
We have a fairly large term store (4000+ lines).
If somebody has a clue or tip that would greatly appreciated!

Hello,
I'm a customer that wanted to bring to your attention the lack of customer service I've received from the Best Buy store at your Tri-County location, here in Ohio. On the 14th of November, I walked in the store to buy an open box electric stove that was advertised on your website. Your website clearly stated that one was in stock at the Tri-County location. I called the store and spoke to a representative prior to my arrival at the store to confirm that this information was accurate and the rep simply told me yes it was, if it says it one the website then to go off of that.
So I went to the store to purchase the stove and was unable to find it. I had several associates help me look for it and nobody could find it and the managers determined that it wasn't in stock. Since it was a Best Buy mistake, the manager offered to give me the new version of the stove for the same price, which saved me a little money. As I'm patiently waiting for the final word from one of the managers, I start looking around for other things I may possibly want to buy and I come across an open box french door refrigerator, so I decide to purchase that as well. Nothing was wrong with it, except for a couple scratches. Keep in mind that this is nearly a couple weeks before thanksgiving, where I had nearly 30 attendants. I just bought a dishwasher and microwave from lowes and wanted to have my complete appliance set on display just in time for Thanksgiving.
When the items arrived at my home, a couple days before Thanksgiving, I was relieved that I received them on time. For the most part, the delivery crew was acceptable, except for the fact that they broke a light switch on the wall as they were trying to move the refrigerator in it's place. They told me about it and I told them that that was okay and that I was just happy that I received my appliances. As anyone else would do, I waited for the fridge to get cold before I put the food back in and when it came time to do so, I noticed that the middle flap between both french doors was broke. It's a bit deceiving because if you just look at it you can't really tell, but after opening and closing it a couple times, you could easily tell that it was broken. So I called Best Buy that same day and told them of the problem. I asked them if they had that part at the store, so I could just come in and get the replacement. Note, that on the appliance defect report this was not listed, so I'm assuming it was damaged during delivery or was overlooked. I mentioned this to the manager. He said, that the item had to be special ordered, so as disappointed as I was that my fridge would not be fully operational for thanksgiving, I said it was okay and he told me that he would call me once it came in. To give you a better idea of what my family is experiencing, we don't use the left door on the fridge.
2 weeks go by and I still haven't received a call, so I decide to call and check in for an update. An associate tells me that the item just came in yesterday and that he would call me back in a few minutes to schedule a repair. I don't receive a call that day, so I call best buy back a few days later. Again, I speak to the same associate and he tells me that the item never came in and that the manager was just going to give me a new fridge instead. So I call your corporate office and speak with an associate and he says that he will get to the bottom of it and help me set up the delivery.
Well on the day of the delivery, which was a Saturday, I was told that it would be dropped off sometime between 3 and 5 in the evening, or something in that timeframe. What do I do? I empty out my fridge and clear a path for the delivery personnel. It being a Saturday, I had plans and I haven't received a call from anybody. So around half past 5, I start putting the items back in the fridge, as well as move the furniture back in place. Keep in mind, this is no easy task. I have a 4 bedroom home and a family of 5, so yes, I have a lot of furniture and a fully stocked fridge. This probably took at least 2 hours to get everything cleared and to put it back in place when I found out they were not showing up.
I then get a call at 15 till 6 from the delivery crew telling me that they were on there way. Surprised and irate that they are now calling me, I have to refuse the delivery because we we didn't have time to wait around since we already had plans for the night. I get another call from a Best Buy associate trying to reschedule and I told them that I've had enough of their dealings and that I would let corporate handle it and through corporate I would see that a proper delivery would then be scheduled.
Well this morning I saw on my phone that I have several missed calls, as early as 6 in the morning from Best Buy delivery stating that I am suppose to recieve my fridge in the morning and I was there 2nd stop. I call the guy and tell him that I was unaware of the delivery and that I would give you guys a call today to schedule the appointment. I intend to call you after I send this email regarding that.
So in all, I've probably been on the phone with Best Buy personnel at least 10 times and several hours. I spoke to several associates, including 3 different managers, 3 different delivery crews, and a rep from your corporate office once. I think it's safe to say that this has been a total nightmare and saving a couple hundred dollars does not make up for it. I wanted to reach out to you because as an educated consumer, who also happens to be an elite Best Buy member, I can firmly say that because of this "Nightmare" I will not be buying any more appliances from your store and you would be lucky if I bought anything else from the store. You do have some pretty good deals on games and movies though, so I may continue to do that.
Please take this information and utilize it accordingly, obviously, this is not how business should be ran and I know this isn't the first time something like this has happened. The exact same thing happend to my friend a few years back from a different store.

Hello penningtonj,
While it's great to hear that you seem to have received new inbox units at open box prices due to your experiences, it certainly sounds like the delivery portion of the experience could have been vastly better for you.
I'm glad to hear that the oven is working well for you, and I'm truly sorry to hear of the difficulties you've experienced with the open box refrigerator. Our open box items should be thoroughly inspected and marked accordingly for its condition or any missing parts or accessories. It is disheartening to hear that a damaged part may have gone unnoticed. With that said, it's awesome that the store has offered to replace it.
We strive to ensure our deliveries are seamless and hassle-free. Given you have a sizable family, I know emptying a refrigerator is no easy task, as I grew up in family of a similar size, and should the refrigerator have to be emptied for any reason, it was a bit chaotic! It is regrettable to hear that the delivery team was late, and that they failed to contact you sooner to let you know of their delay. Furthermore, it is strange that you may not have been aware of (and thus completely unprepared for) the rescheduled delivery. I can understand how this would be concerning, and further aggravating.
I sincerely apologize for the continued hassle you've experienced with purchasing these appliances. With that said, it appears that you are currently scheduled for delivery on 1/28/15. You should receive a phone call the night before to provide you with a time frame of when to expect them. If you should have any questions or concerns, please feel welcome to reach out to me!
Respectfully,

I have created an extensive slideshow w/music on my MacBook Pro iPhoto. How do I export a slideshow so that I can burn a DVD from it? "Help" does not offer info for this request, only if you want to export to another Apple device. Help!!!

I have created a lengthy slideshow with music on my MacBook Pro under Iphoto. What steps do I need to take in order to burn a DVD copy of this slideshow? "Help" does not offer info for this transaction, only if you want to export to another Apple device and it shows that you must first export to Itunes. Can anyone help me with information on just copying to a DVD? I don't want to email it or show it on another Apple device. I want to be able to burn multiple copies on DVDs as a gift...... Can it be done? I'm not real computer savvy

Connect the device to the computer.

Sync.
This is all described in the User's Guide, reading it may be a good place to start.

I am part of a family sharing setup. Can I have my own payment method so the organizer does not get charged for my purchases?

Yes. Just redeem gift cards so that your own account always has a sufficient credit balance. Here is how it works:
Family purchases and payments
After you set up your family, any time a family member initiates a new purchase it will be billed directly to your account unless that family member has gift or store credit. First, their store credit will be used to pay the partial or total bill. The remainder will bill to the family organizer's card.

Since upgrading to the newest version of ios 8, I can no longer share my photos on facebook. I have tried going to setting-photos, but the facebook app does not show up for me to change the settings. Any suggestions?

when you opened the shared library with the newer version of iPhoto (iPhoto '11) you were given a warning that your library would be converted and could not be used by older versions - you clicked ok to go ahead - there is no updo available - either upgrade to iphoto '11 of the MBP or load your backup of the iPhoto '09 library on it - older versiopns of i{Photo can not read newer libraries

I purchased Adobe CS4. I am now being asked for my serial number and when I put it in the program does not recognize it for Acrobat Pro 9 though it does for PhotoShop, Bridge and the rest of the suite. What can I do?

Contact support if you have serial number issues. Otherwise start by checking this stuff:
Sign in, activation, or connection errors

HT3577 How can I turn off the text editing feature on an iPhone 4 with iOS 6.x - when my Mom taps the phone, it always brings up copy. It does not do this for me so I am assuming it is the way her disability forces her fingers to hit the screen.

My Mom has tremors and when she uses her iPhone and taps to select, the way she hits the keyboard causes the copy selection to appear. It is not an issue with her phone because it does not do this for me. I would like to shut off the double tap feature. I have already tried Settings/General/Accessibility/Home speed typing = slowest.

The editing menu doesn't come up when you double tap. It comes up when you press and hold. It can't be turned off.
