Iweb download question

Does anyone know how to deactivate so in iweb no one can download a photo?
Also: deactivate the subscribe button too?
I'm new...thx

You can turn off "Subscribe" in the Photos Inspector. Can't help you with the download part, but search the forums and see if you can find anything. It's been asked by many people, there may be some workarounds available.
I think someone suggested putting a shape in the same color as your background over the download button, but I wouldn't know how to do that since the page that shows the download button isn't actually present in iWeb, but only shows up in the browser once you click on a photo to see it larger.
Others have suggested watermarking your images. Consensus seems to be that if someone really wants to steal your photo, they'll find a way to do it anyway. Still, I would agree that it shouldn't be encouraged. Download should be optional, and we should be able to turn it off right in the inspector.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    iWeb isn't available as a download. If you want that application, you have to buy iLife in a DVD at eBay or Amazon > http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MC623Z-A-iLife-VERSION/dp/B003XKRZES
    iLife '11 comes with iWeb, so you can perform a custom install. After installing the app, open  > Software Update, and install the latest version

  • Iweb/podcast question

    I created a podcast using Audacity. i forgot to put the artist name in the id3 tag. now when i go to iTunes the artist name says UNKNOWN. Who do i change this?
    i used iweb to make my website, and used the podcast page to post my podcast. the RSS feed was given to me by iweb.
    that is the only thing wrong with my podcast. do i need to edit the RSS feed? if i do, how do i do this?
    sorry for the newbie question.
    thanx,
    Mj Timothy Scott

    No, unfortunately not. Not through iWeb, not by any means. If any kind of media can be displayed in a browser - be it audio, video, or still images - it can be downloaded or saved locally by the viewer.
    It's the old adage...Where there's the will, there's a way.

  • IWeb Backup Question

    Hi all,
    I apologize if this question has been asked, but it's late and I kinda was hoping there was a quick answer.
    I have a small website, nothing spectacular, that I created and mess around with on occasion. I made it with iWeb, and published it to my .Mac account. I had a hard drive crash a few weeks ago, and of course, I didn't have everything backed up like I should have. Now, since the site and it's pages are up in my 'sites' folder, it's still online, but my question is this: After downloading that folder from my .Mac account, how do I open it in iWeb again? When I open iWeb now, it just starts up from scratch.
    Thanks much,
    Brian H.

    Hi Brian,
    You can't reopen that site again in iWeb. You see, iWeb doesn't open html files, like mainstream web applications do. It generates html when you initiate a Publish command, and it draws the resources necessary for this from a single file, Domain.sites. This Domain file contains all of your work, created in the iWeb app. It lives on your hard drive in your Home folder's Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites.
    This is the file you will backup from now on to prevent this from happening again.

  • Is there anything I can do to speed up iWeb download times?

    I was wondering if I could ask the forum a couple of questions. (I have had a look through previous posts but wasn't able to find the answers I need. Apologies if my questions have been answered before).
    I bought iWeb a few days ago and website building is virgin territory for me. Over the weekend I put together a site. This is albeit a skeleton site, but the final site will be pretty much the same, only with more picture and text content.
    The site is primarily about displaying photographs to picture editors (etc) so fastish download times are important for me . On my G5 (with reasonable broadband), and after emptying the cache, the site opens very slowly. (Page opening times range from 5 seconds to 10 seconds). This is unfortunately far too slow for my needs.
    I have tried to speed up the download times by a variety of means:
    (1) Reducing the file size to 30kb jpeg files in ImageReady using 'save for web'
    (2) Using the 'original size' facility in inspector.
    Nothing seems to be increasing the download times to acceptable speeds.
    Does anyone know what I can do, if anything?
    Please check out this skeleton site at:

    Any help or feedback with this would be very much appreciated.

    Hi Greg,
    Went to your web site. Page loading time wasn't too bad here, but I'm a photographer also and am sympathetic to your need for speed.
    Here's what I found and my current ideas for speeding up page loading speed.
    I grabbed two of your images and found that they were 450k png files, not 30k as mentioned plus the images, in my opinion, are soft and could be sharper.
    Some iWeb observations re: Photo Pages and Image Optimization Workflow
    Dropping hirez files into iWeb it will automatically "Fit Image" to 800x800px with a jpeg compression of 10.
    Watching users open my web pages I've noticed and feel:
    a) Alot of these folks are PC users and their display resolutions are not set as high as we use editing photos.
    b). Because of this, images over 500px high cripples some users from seeing the bottom of a page and controls that may be there.
    c) My current workflow includes using "Fit Image" to Width 700px and Heigth 500px.
    Following are Custom and Batch Image Processing Workflows
    These will work with Raw, Tif or Jpg images and will assume that you have reasonably worked up your images applying your own voodoo.
    Custom Image Processing Workflow. (using smallest file, quick version)
    1. Load images into Bridge
    2. Edit and manually sort images into the order you want.
    3. Renumber images with (sequence)(-)(Filename)
    4. Use Tools->Photoshop->Image Processor
    Save the files as sRGB Tiff and Fit Image H500px by 700px
    5. Open images in Photoshop
    6. Apply your custom image image corrections to each image
    7. Sharpen the images
    8. Save for Web using jpeg with medium compression.
    9. Images are now ready for web use.
    Using this process a couple of times you will come away with a feel for the Custom image correction and amount of sharpening and compression works best for your images.
    Now you are ready to start batching images.
    First create a bunch of commonly used action.
    I have a "Sharpen" folder containing actions named:
    30 SmartSharp
    40 SmartSharp
    50 SmartSharp
    60 SmartSharp
    etc.
    Also, I have a Convert to Profile folder of actions
    A Color Correct folder of actions that calls on some of my favorite nik Color Efex filters and presets.
    And a "Save As" folder of actions containing
    Save4Web high
    Save4Web medium
    --Don't let me lose you here becase here comes the good part
    Create a folder of "Combined Actions" and create some useful combinations.
    Example: "sRGB 50Sharp WebMedium" that calls on three of the actions previously created Convert to Profile, SmartSharpen and Save As
    Now you are ready for:
    Batch Image Processing Workflow
    1. Load images into Bridge
    2. Edit and manually sort images into the order you want.
    3. Renumber images with (sequence)(-)(Filename)
    4. Use Tools->Photoshop->Image Processor
    Save the files as sRGB Tiff and Fit Image H500px by 700px
    but this time use: Apply Action "sRGB 50Sharp WebMedium"
    5. Images are now ready for web use.
    Respectfully submitted,
    Junebug Clark

  • IWeb Download Speed

    I am having problems downloading my Blog form iWeb.
    It takes forever to publish even though I'm on a fast 8M connection, and it keeps giving me the following error upon completion:
    An error occurred while publishing file “/Web/Sites/iWeb/John's Blog/John's Blog/81703891-AE9E-4634-9C65-77D1437C31F6files/NZON_NZRT_2007_11_10_C16121655-3.JPG”.
    Some of the pages don't appear on the Blog.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    Any ideas?
    Not sure why you posted here? Since this question has nothing to do with Apple's AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) or wireless networking I would post the question in the iWeb discussion area.

  • HELP - Dial Up Download Question from a Mac Mini Tiger OS X 10.4.6 Newbee??

    There are hugh download files (133 Mb for 10.4.7 for example) that appeared when I ran Software update the first day I got my Mini. This would require 10 to 12 hours download on my Juno account. One solution I saw in these forums was to have a neighbor with High Speed connection download and burn a disc. My NEWBEE question is... Can you go to the Apple OS X download page and successfully download the 10.4.7 update (and others) using a Windows machine with Windows software?? Then have that Windows PC burn a disc that can transfer the update to my Mini?? I'm breaking new ground in my neighborhood and appear to be the only one with a Mac. These forums are great - Thanks Addie

    Thanks to you and Sig for the response. We have NO APPLE STORE/OUTLET within a four hour drive, therefore your input that a PC can burn the disc is the best alternative I have. BUT what do you mean by a "hybrid" data CD? I'm a NEWBEE, so could you give me a little more specifics, i.e., what package/brand & model should I buy? I was thinking any CD-ROM would work! Thanks & sorry for my lack of experience, Addie

  • Oracle 9i AS Portal download questions

    I read the installation guide for Oracle 9iAS (the guide for all of AS, not just the Portal component). I have some questions that were not addressed in the documentation.
    1) Do you need to download the entire Oracle9i Application Server in order to download and access the Oracle Portal component? I understand there's three levels of downloads (minimal, standard, and enterprise), and that even the minimal edition contains Oracle 9iAS. However, I was hoping to minimize space and memory required when working with Oracle Portal. (I just need to configure databases and manage database security, both of which can be done using Oracle Portal.)
    2) I already have Microsoft Peer Web Services installed on my computer. (That's the development environment in which you can test Cold Fusion and ASP code.) Will this conflict with the Oracle 9iAS, since both are servers that may affect, or be affected by, network configurations - even if they're both in a local, standalone test environment?
    (I can't just remove PWS since I do need it for testing Cold Fusion and/or ASP development code.)
    3) I understand that in order to download Oracle 9iAS, I need to already have access to an Oracle database. What mimimum version of Oracle do I need to be working with? The installation guide states that I can find out more information about database requirements at http://metalink.oracle.com. However, I can't even register for this site in order to access it, because it requires a "Support Identifier (CSI, SAC, Access Code etc.)" However, the CSI for the company where I work has expired - so I can't access that area for info.
    It seems that I may need to use Oracle 8i. I just downloaded the Installation Guide for the Oracle 8i Personal Edition. Would that be sufficient to work with a standalone (personal edition/evaluation copy) of Oracle9i AS?
    I hope to hear from someone soon about these issues! Thanks.

    1)Portal is an integrated component of 9iAS. You need to download all of 9iAS and select the minimal install option.
    2)We haven't tested this configuration, but as long as you set up apache appropriately to use different ports than the existing software it should work.
    3)Portal requires 8.1.6.2 Enterprise edition or 8.1.7 Standard edition. Personal Edition will not work.

  • Iweb issue - question marks ??

    Hello
    I'm a new user to iweb and this is my first post.
    Basically I have been getting used to the iweb app for a few days now and have started putting a basic website tigether as a kind of online cv for the work I do.
    I currently have a small amount of web space (55meg) with my broadband account and have been using this to publish and test my web site.
    I have been using Safari, Firefox and Internet Explorer 5.2 on my G5 to view the web site.
    Generally everything looks fine, but the odd question mark symbol keeps popping up. Ironically the site seems to look best in IE, but question mark symbols show up in all three browsers.
    I wondered if anyone may be able to help with this ?
    Many thanks in advance

  • Iweb 08 question

    hi, i dont create web pages and never will, so can someone tell me if i can remove iweb 08 from my macbook air ?
    IM new to Mac so i wanted to free up some space on my HD. Will removeing iweb harm my system ? will it free up a decent amount of space ?
    Is removeing the app as easy as dragging the icon to the trash bin ?
    Thanks

    hi, i dont create web pages and never will, so can someone tell me if i can remove iweb 08 from my macbook air ?
    See your last question.
    IM new to Mac so i wanted to free up some space on my HD. Will removeing iweb harm my system ? will it free up a decent amount of space ?
    Select iWeb and type Cmd-I. It will show you the size of that application. Its' 339 MB.
    Is removeing the app as easy as dragging the icon to the trash bin ?
    Yes, in fact it's the same. The icon IS the application.
    BTW, the application is in the Application folder. Just in case you mistake the icon in the Dock.
    And in case you regret your decision, the iweb application is on your Install Disk.

  • Iweb import question

    I am working on a site that needs more horizontal space than the allowed 4000 px. Is there a way to publish the page to a folder, edit the width in a 3rd party program such as dreamweaver or taco html and bring it back into iweb?

    By the way, if you do edit the HTML in any 3rd party app, you can utilize a program called "MassReplaceIt" to save the edits provided you can make the process into a repeatable "find and replace" function. This way, you can run this program after every publish and it will automatically put the HTML changes/additions back in for you if they were previously overwritten by the publish.
    You can find out more and download the application here...
    MassReplaceIt
    Good luck!

  • IWeb Email Question

    when I insert the email icon and configure the email, when people press the icon it opens their email app filled in with my inserted address:
    1) does iWeb allow me to do a web-email that can be done online rather than with an email app
    2) is there a way to add a security so automatic email (spam) scans don't leave emails (like adding the feature to put in numbers/letters that pop up)?

    Actually, I did create a Gmail address for that. It does direct the email to that address if you click on the email icon.
    The question really meant to be sort of like that: When you use iWeb with Podcast etc so users can leave comments then whoever leaves a comment first has to type in the numbers/letters so automatic spamming can't spam that comment. Now with the email icon, can automatic spamming sent you emails there (since there is no such number/letters typing) or is there a way to activate that option also with emails?

  • Iweb different question

    I have 2 MacBook Pros (OS X Ver 10.9.5). I work on both and transfer files and folders back and forth. I copy iweb from Application Support. Suddenly I was unable to open files in iweb on one of the Macs. After much back and forth I now have the files open on the Mac. BUT now when I try to publish to local site - it is asking me where I want to save. The window is showing "Sites" and below "Shared" within that window there is a folder named "Images" and a grayed out index.html. This is the way the files disappeared before. So, until someone can offer advice I will keep iweb open in fear I will not only lose all my changes but undoubtedly lose the ability to open it again. The only way I know how to get to where iweb is stored is by going to the library by holding "option" in Go. Does not appear to be a way to do that with the window that is open. Thank you in advance for your learned advice

    You want to put the domain file in a folder titled iWeb and put that folder in your Home/Library/Applications folder. You can publish the website to any folder you want on the hard drive.   I publish to a folder in my Documents folder titled "iWeb Sites".  It's all a matter of personal preferences.
    Since you're running Mavericks there's a problem how the system handles the iWeb domain files in the Library folder.  For that reason you'll need to use this Automator workflow app I created to open the domain file for the first time:
    To open your domain file in Lion, Mountain Lion or Mavericks or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script"/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"
    delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible in Lion or Mt. Lion enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    For Mavericks, 10.9 ,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:

  • IWeb Valet question

    After publishing in a local folder and make changes using iWeb valet can you publish via Mobile me? I have a website and I want to improve some pictures and use e-mail disguises, etc. .. I can then publish again in my old Mobile Me the local folder or do I use FTP to another hosting company?

    Note that by doing this you will probably lose some iWeb features such as hit counter, blog and photo comments etc.
    As I wasn't impressed with this product, I didn't test it out thoroughly and therefore don't know if the input from iDisk work-around will fly with this application.
    15 minutes later...
    Ok - I just downloaded tried it and can't get it to connect to my iDisk. The connection input screen is for a server. Most applications geared towards iWeb have a button for simple upload to MobileMe.
    The designer needs to go back to the drawing board.
    You can" improve" your photos in many other and better ways and you can create aliases for your emails without having to use this application.

  • Servlet controlled download question

    I've written a servlet that will extract my file from the database and prompt the client browser with a "Save As" prompt. So far so good.
    The problem I'm having is that for the file name, the browser is using the name of the servlet (say Example.do" as the file name.
    So the box shows the following
    Filename : Example
    File Type:
    From: www.examplehost.com
    So my question is how to I get the correct file name to show up, and get the file type field populated. I'm trying to get this to work for the IE 5 browsers.
    The headers are being set as follows:
    response.setContentType("application/x-download; name=\"" + fileName + "\"");
    response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment; filename=" + fileName + ";");
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
    Sean

    That problem is due to the fact that the browser sets the name of the file equal to the request.
    There are two solutions i can imagine :
    - Place the file in a public place (Where you have your jsp and such) :
    Cons : Anyone that knows the file is there may get it.
    A big security error, specially if the file is confidencial.
    Pros : The file name will be the correct one.
    - Use an applet that connects to the servlet :
    Cons : It may take too long to load
    Many ppl don't like applets running on they're machine
    pros : You may create you own progress bar, with percentage and everything;
    You control the time it takes and the speed you wish it to use;
    The best of all, You may copy the file into a temp dir and then transfer it to the dest dir with the name you wish or the user wishes.
    It's up to you to decide,
