IWeb 2.0.1 :: List the fixes here

Apple released iWeb 2.0.1 last night and here's the official line:
*What’s New in this Version*
*This update addresses issues with upgrading and publishing iWeb 1.x websites*.
Kinda vague huh? If you have loaded iWeb 2.0.1 and notice that some problems that you have been having are no more, list them in this thread.
I just downloaded it and will be checking things out and posting shortly.
Cheers!

David,
You're right. Should have given it a little bit more time but when I posted that the thread had 98 views and no responses. Further, my frustration with the "update" not solving anything was compounded by other posts I've read where it's not solving any issues for anyone else. The one person in the thread who said that their app isn't crashing anymore does not make this a solution or success.
Either way, thanks for the response.

This seems to be the fix for no calls or texts

Thanks to for this
There fix is this.

"Ok, anybody experiencing problems with not being able to receive texts or calls today need to navigate to their network settings in their phone, then change the operator from EE to O2, wait a few seconds and then change it back to EE."
From what I've seen there are others that this has worked with. So full kudos to

Upgraded to my iPhone 6 just over a week ago was working fine until yesterday. Spent 20 minutes on 150 yesterday were due to call me back today at 5:15 just gone 8 I try to call and closed. Not a happy customer. I can't receive and calls or texts it just says number unobtainable but I can text and call. Tried the fix here but it didn't work. Any other ideas

TUTORIAL: Previously working effects now missing? Here's the fix...

WARNING: This process involves editing the Windows registry, so if you are squeamish about that sort of thing, do not attempt this. I'm not responsible for broken computers, hurt feelings, or terrified household pets.
I've ocassionally run into an issue since CS4 where certain plugins/effects would spontaneously cease loading in Premiere Pro and functioning, and it apparently continues to affect CS5. This happened on three total different computers, so I'm not sure what the underlying cause is. There was no clear reason why this would happen: I'd use the effect one day, come back the next and load my project, and the effects would be reported as "missing" upon project load:
This doesn't happen with the "built-in" effects that ship with Premiere, but it has happened repeatedly with the Cycore effects (copied from the AE plugins directory) or with third-party plugins like those from DigiEffects, Red Giant, Trapcode, etc. After this loading mesage, the instance of the filter would show up in the Effects Control Panel as "Offline Filter" and the filter would have no effect on the clip to which it is applied. This isn't a case of the effect simply not being compatible with Premiere, as they had previously showed up in the Effect bin and could be applied and used, as evidenced by the error pop-up above. Uninstalling and reinstalling the plugins has no effect on correcting the issue. After a bit of hunting around, I finally figured out how to correct the problem--not the underlying cause, which I still cannot pinpoint, but I can at least get the filters/effects/plugins loading and operating again. Note that the following applies to Windows systems; I'm not sure if this affects Macs, and if it does, I have no clue as to how to correct it.
In Explorer, go to the following folder: C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Premiere Pro\5.0. Inside, you will find a file called Plugin Loading.log. This is simply a text file which you can open with Notepad or a similar text editor. In it, you'll find a long list of entries like this:
Anything that says "The plugin was successfully loaded from the registry" was obviously successfully loaded, and therefore able to be used in Premiere. However, upon scrolling through the file, you will see something like this (using the CC Snow example from above):
At some point in the list, the successfully-loaded plugins will stop and the list will change to "The plugin is marked as Ignore, so it will not be loaded." Herein lies the problem and the solution; we need to correct this issue in the registry, since we know from the above example that the plugins are loaded from the registry.
In Windows, click the Start button/orb, and select Run; in the panel that appear, type in regedit. This will launch the Registry Editor. A good safety precaution before going any further is to select File > Export and save your ENTIRE registry by selecting the All radio button. Pick a location and back it up; it may take a few moments. This is important to do if you're not familiar with editing the registry, because you can pretty quickly toast your OS installation if you poke at animals you shouldn't. You've been warned.
Navigate to the following key in the Registry Editor: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Premiere Pro\5.0\PluginCache.64\en_US. Here, you will see a long list of other subkeys, each of which bears the name of a plugin. If you click on one of the keys in the left pane (looks like a folder icon from Explorer), you will see a list of values, their types, and the data they hold in the pane on the right. Using the Plugin Loading.log text file as a guide, compare a plugin that loads with one that doesn't. You'll see the following disparity:
If the "Ignore" value is set as "0" (binary data), the plugin loads; if the "Ignore" value is set as "1," the plugin does not load. Based on this information, the solution should be apparent:
Using the Plugin Loading.log text file as a guide, change this data for any "Ignore" value set to "1." An important note: this does not "enable" effects that wouldn't otherwise work in Premiere Pro anyway. For example, some of the Cycore effects, like Time Blend, Time Blend FX, and Split 2, do not work in Premiere, regardless of how the "Ignore" value is set. If you should happen to change them, Premiere will set the value to "1" the next time you launch the program.
Once you've changed these values (there's no need to save, as the changes are immediately made to the registry), launch Premiere. If you were successfully, nothing interesting will happen--you'll be greeted with no error messages, and your once-missing effects will resume their place and settings on your sequence clips. You can confirm the "fix" by reopening Plugin Loading.log (be sure to have closed this file before relaunching Premiere, as it is simply overwritten each time), and looking for the entries that were previously ignored:
There you have it. Again, I don't know the reason why this happens, but I've been bitten by this oddity numerous times in CS4, and now in CS5. My best guess is that it happens when Premiere crashes during loading (which seems to happen to me) or there is some other "issue" during launch. As a sort of self-defense mechanism, Premiere tells the registry to disable these plugins to ensure a successful load the next time the program is launched, but then they are not automatically re-enabled, and hence the need for this somewhat convoluted fix. Under normal circumstances, I would imagine that relatively few users will ever encounter this issue--but if you do, you now know how to get back to work.

A great set of screen clips & tutorial. But I'm compelled to tell you guys it's even simpler than that.
All you have to do is delete the en_US keys for both the Premiere Pro & After Effects plug-in caches in the registry at:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Premiere Pro\5.5\PluginCache.64\en_US &
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\After Effects\10.5\PluginCache.64\en_US
Of course, have the applications closed prior to deleting the keys. Upon launching the Premiere Pro & After Effects again, both applications will regenerate their cache folders (they'll re-appear) in the registry & you should then see all your installed plug-ins if they are installed in the correct folders & aren't corrupted.
Note that Pr & Ae will take significantly longer to launch as it re-scans all the installed plug-ins again.
If you don't want to dig through the registry, here's a copy of VBscripts to do it for you. Don't see all your plugins? One of the apps choose to ignore your plug-in's without provocation?
...just run these & re-launch the Premiere & After Effects. Enjoy.

here i have an list called listOfEnrichProducts.
here i am adding two objects of enrichedProductCatalogue.
which contains a object called BundleProduct.
which has a reference for Product class.
here this product class has a list which contains objects of another class called UiCategory.
the problem here is i am not able to get the data from the list which contains UiCategory objects .
the following is the UI

The iPod sees the new computer as a new iTunes library. You can only sync with one iTunes library. However, you can manage music among disfferent computers. See:

I downloaded IOS 7.1 on my ipad. Now I can't open Game Center or access my friends lists in the games I play. My ipad is about 3 years old. What is the fix?

Swiping up from the bottom of the screen with four fingers did not bring up the app preview. A single press on the home button still brings me back to the home screen, but a double press of the home button does nothing following updating to 7.1 Given that, when I added a software home button as suggested by DIAVONEX, I found that all of the apps WERE still open! So thank you DIAVONEX, and you should be careful, bobseufert, as your information was inaccurate.( I did try turning it off and that didn't change anything. ) I don't really want a software home button on my screen, but I guess I will use it until either there is another update to resolve this glitch or someone else identifies a quirky setting that I inadvertently activated...

For all you who have problems here is the fix for your phone.

Most of you on here don't understand that 3.x or if you have jailbreak your pass software and set it up from back up you are going to have problems. That can be from drop calls to not having the phone working right.
The 4.0 software has been rewritten completed for the new and old phones. So if you were on 3.x and update to 4.0 then you are bring in a bugs into 4.0. You have to set up as NEW PHONE not from back up. This clean your phone with a fresh software then you add your stuff from your computer. Then you have to go to general and go and reset your network settings. That reset your carrier account with the new 4.0. That because the new 4.0 is now looking to find the tower which has the less people on the tower not which tower is close to you. This way you get a better service and sound of it.
If you still have problems all of you with your iPhone 4 then it a hardware problem. You have to go to the Apple store and replace the phone. Apple will be happy to replace the phone. If not you have 30 days to get your full refund from Apple.
That is it. Nothing hard about it. It's a software problem of a hardware problem. BTW my new iPhone 4 is much better in sound and not having any drop calls than my old 3GS. If you have problems with drop calls is because you are in area which has a week tower which is so busy and can't keep up with the system. That a ATT problem which ATT is working hard to fix it but it can't get the equipment from their supplies fast enough to fix the problem with the network.
I hope this answer your problems on here.

I know this sounds like a bit of Voodoo, but it's worth a try. If you've upgraded to the new iPhone 4 and have restored your old software, you may see what appears to be a signal drop-off. Let's stay away from the whole iPhone 4 "death grip" controversy; that aside, no matter what you do, you're not seeing as many bars or getting reception that's as good as what you had with your older iPhone.
Here's something to try. On your iPhone preferences, navigate to "General," and then scroll down to the bottom where it says "Reset." Tap that, and then tap "Reset Network Settings." You'll get a warning, and the phone will reset to factory defaults. You'll likely lose some Wi-Fi passwords, but you may also find that your cellular reception gets a lot better.
I have two friends who tried this, and they went from one or two bars to four or five at the same locations. This is the same trick they are doing at the Genius Bar, and my research shows that it can help in many (but not all) cases. We've talked about this fix before, but we have a lot of new readers, and some old ones, who may have missed it. There are also some discussions about this on the Apple support board. If you have seen a drop-off in reception, it's certainly worth a try. If it doesn't work, we're sorry. If it does, well, the price is right for the fix. Let us know in the comments if it helped, or sadly, if it didn't.

Provide list of the fixes with the new upgrade via OTA

Hi,
Can you please start providing a list of all the fixes available with the new upgrade via OTA. The list can be displayed in the System Update section along with the latest upgrade.
This will give the users an idea on what all changes are are available with the fix and will set their expectations accordingly.

Good idea! Thanks for you suggestion! I will bring your suggestion to our manager for further consideration.

I want to FaceTime with a friend in Japan. Can I just call her through my contacts list the same way I would call my friend who live next door to me?

Short Answer: Yes
When they set up facetime, they either used an apple ID, or (for iphone only) their phone number. You call using one of them. An apple id linked email address in my opinion is simpler, as you don't need to worry about country codes and the like. (I have never tried to facetime anyone out of the country, so I will admit I am not sure what you do about country codes.)
These articles are a little dated, but should help you set up your or your friends facetime if you need to.

Log Message:
The changes here are mostly fixing some sizing issues.
For the FlashContainerPlaceholder, the first child is now MyFlexContentHolder, which extends mx.flash.FlexContentHolder but meets the invariant that it has 1 child and that child is FlexContentHolderThumbnail, which I?\226?\128?\153ve added as a swc to the project. I changed this by accident last time to refer to mx.flash.FlexContentHolder, when it should've referred to a concrete instance created by Flash from a swc. I also added a chrome of 151x151 to match the FlexContentHolderThumbnail since otherwise the container itself would have no chrome at all, and this let?\226?\128?\153s it size correctly.
Also, for sizing, in a container, rather than sizing to the size of the chrome, I now size to the size of the FlexContentHolder thumbnail that all FlexContentHolder?\226?\128?\153s have. This means in ContainerMovieClip, I don?\226?\128?\153t need to override bounds anymore.
ContainerMovieClip now implements IVisualElementContainer.
Also, I fixed a resizing event bug in UIMovieClip where the resize event was getting dispatched more than once.

I don't know what service options are available in India but if this helps I do know that once you purchase your Apple product the warranty is valid anywhere in the world.

IOS 8 Slow..... Here's the fix.

Here's the fix. http://cl.ly/372i3C3A3e26

Nope - and it was set to not look for them.
The final clue came when I tried hooking the drive directly to the computer, instead of to the airdisk. iTunes still hung. Then I disconnected the drive and tried to run it, and iTunes came up right away - but with an ! next to each song. Clearly it was trying to find/touch every file in the library on first startup.
I didn't try plugging in the drive and leaving the hanging iTunes running for more than a few minutes, so it's possible that it would have recovered and launched. But after removing the XML file, restoring the library to my pre-7.7 version, I could hear it accessing the directly attached drive (and see it in disk activity in the monitor) for a few minutes (less than I'd left the hanging one trying), before it came up.
Conclusion:
1) 7.7 is definitely trying to touch/see all the files in the library on first launch (proved by the ! when they are missing).
2) Disconnecting/interrupting the touch/see MAY have corrupted something (can't prove it).
3) Since touching 10,000 files takes a LONG time even at 802.11n speeds (let alone b or g), it's worth the hassle to plug the drive in directly for the first time.
4) Patience is a virtue
