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?

I apologize for my ignorance, but what do you mean by 'everything'? The computer name, e-mail accounts, icloud accounts etc?
My work computer (this mac) i use with my private icloud account so I have access to my private calendars etc. My husband's airbook is also connected to that icloud (since I only have 1 icloud account) and so is our shared ipad. Is that where the problem is? Do I need to change everything on those devises into my name too? Thanks again for you time and help!
So you are sharing the account. Very bad idea.
Get your husband his own account and stop sharing yours, they are free.

Multiple Account email question

I have a question regarding email. I have a primary account (eg. [email protected]) and set up an alias for my child to use (eg. [email protected]). Little johnny has is own 'account' on my iMac. When we log in to his account and launch Mac Mail it asks for password- I enter my primary password for the [email protected] account but that doesnt work. I thought the alias was a good way for parental control and intro to Mail to a youngster. Is this not the correct (or best) way? Do I need to purchase an entire new .mac account??
Tks for tips,

Submit by email questions

Hi there,
A few questions about the submit by email function.
1. We have [email protected] addresses. When we hit submit, it only brings up [email protected] How can I make the whole email show up on the email program?
2. I am getting a "Operation not permitted" error when other people are testing the form. They are completing it with Adobe Reader and it's just not working even if they've filled out all the necessary sections. Any ideas?
3. Is there a way to make the information come via email in plain text (or pdf that cannot be edited) vs. surrounded by html coding or an editable pdf?
I am using Designer 7
Thanks for all of the help,
M

>2. I am getting a "Operation not permitted" error when other people are testing the form. They are completing it with Adobe Reader and it's just not working even if they've filled out all the necessary sections. Any ideas?
Maybe you are trying to submit in PDF format rather than form data.
Reader doesn't do that.

Editable PDF is not for Reader. If you want to reformat the e-mail
received, the form should be submitted to a web server, which receives
the data and sends out a formatted e-mail.
This is STRONGLY recommended. There are MANY reasons not to think of
"submitting by e-mail" directly.

EMail Questions

Hey
I can't wait 'till the iPhone hits Australia. And I want to set up my email and have it all sorted before I buy my iPhone. My question is which email provider should I choose. I am with Windows Live Mail at the moment and I'm happy with it but it's not the paid version (and I don't plan on paying). I am looking into setting up a gMail account. Can get some advice based on features, how easy it is to use, how easy it is to set up.
p.s I don't plan on paying for any plus packages, just the basic free ones.

Hi.
Here is a visual tool from Gmail and iPhone. iphone can configure both IMAP and POP3 accounts.
1. IMAP is more efficient, so here is the website:
https://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=77702&topic=12814
2. Also, remember to select the function on Gmail (for IMAP or POP) when you are signed in. Here is the YouTube Video:

Good luck

More email questions

ok guys, few questions here:
1. Is it possilbe to format the ghastly email which is sent
from a quiz? It comes out in random text in no particulay format!!!
I mean obviously it is formatted in some way but how can i explain
to my client that they have to interpret the results themselves???
2. Can you make it automatically send the email when the
results page is show (so the user doesnt have to click on send
email button)??
3. Is it possible to make it so if the user runs out of time
it goes to the next question automatically? (At present if you run
out of time it prevents you from doing anything further)
I like this program but there are really some stupid issues
where you have no control over the page elements and how they are
displayed. Why make all the other buttons customisable and not the
submit buttons etc...
hope you can help
thanks
John

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
If you don't see the email reset link, you don't have a rescue email address. Creating one requires answering two of the questions.

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

Hi rdfmusic and welcome to the iWeb forum!
Your problem is a common one when publishing to a non .Mac server but is easily fixed. Tom Gewecke has created a page that addresses this with the solution:
http://homepage.mac.com/thgewecke/iwebchars.html
Tom has also set up a page with links to a lot of tips on using iWeb:

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

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/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 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.

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.

Cross Platform HTML Email Questions

Hi,
I am creating new html emails from within dreamweaver for use in a service like constant contact. The service I use is COMF5. They have a rudimentary (but nice) WSYIWYG editor so I am giving it a whirl in Dreamweaver.
I first made the mistake of creating a beautiful file in CSS, pasted it in the editor and found divs and info floating all over the place.
I just found an article by an adobe pro on doing this and ZOMG, what a huge help. Here is what I think I underatand and my question:
1. Everything is tables, inclding the background which is created at 98%.
2. The body is to be nested tables.
3. Attributes are to be defined within the table by use of the property bar and not to include creating css rules.
4. The one exception is inline styles created within the boundaries of the table.
5. Important rule is to not have CSS sitting at top of code in document.
My big question at present is, how can I code links to be other than blue and underlined? I would use CSS to do that on my pages.
Thanks ain advance for further insight!

I'll second what Joey said. Everything inline with email clients. They are too unreliable, especially with Outlook. Constant Contact though can be a pain in that you can't just add links to the email if you want them to be tracked. Search their documentation for the "SimpleURLProperty" tag that they use. If you do not include this, and the code they leave for you in the code view when you import your own code, none of their tracking features will work. And this goes for images as well as text links. Lots of conditions when sending through Constant Contact if tracking is a key. One of the key reasons I have used other services for awhile now.

Exporting photos for email question

In Mac OS 9 my Quicktime Pictureviewer would quickly open my large JPG files and then I could simply click file export (while viewing each photo) and Pictureviewer would automatically resize (to around 800x600) and compress the photos as I exported them.
Is there an easy way to do this now in Tiger? I can do it through my version of Photoshop elements, but it is a pain in Elements 2.0 as I have to resize each time, and click several other options to finally get what I want (a compressed 800x600 file under 200kb). In a nutshell, Elements just makes it too tedious to do when, say, I have a hundred or so photos I took and want to very quickly export them to a folder that I later mass email to family and friends.
Any suggestions on how I can do this with what comes with Tiger (like Preview) or if I upgrade to Quicktime Pro will I then get a Pictureviewer for OS X that will do what I use to do?

First of all, thanks!
I did open mail and dragged the photo files to the mail window (I'm emailing to someone) and then on the bottom of the mail window clicked small and it reduced those photos to what I wanted.
My question to you is when you speak of "iPhoto," is iPhoto apart of my X Tiger or is iPhoto an Apple internet service? I couldn't find "iPhoto" using Spotlight as being on my computer. When I double click a photo image I have on my computer, "Preview" opens. Is "Preview" a version of/or is the same as "iPhoto?" I can't find anywhere in Preview where I can click a button to email the photo I'm currently viewing.
Much thanks in advance.

Iweb email Button Problem

I have constructed a website, with iweb, and it's just about ready to go public. I have one small problem however. I used the email button that comes with iweb. I set it up to go to my regular email address. When I first click on the button, not only does the send page come up, but my entire email folder right behind it. All of my messages are then visible. If I click out and back in again the email folder does not reappear. But everytime I turn off the computer, it happens all over again.
How can I stop this?
Thank you.
JRIH

Hi there JRIH
When you click on the email icon, your email client will come up because *you* are sending the email through your email client to the address that is on the website. Once you publish the site and someone wants to send you an email through the website, that person's email client will come up -- not yours.

BB Bold Email Questions

New to BBs and just recently got the Bold 9790. Sorry if this is a weird question.
I configured my email accounts with my BB (get notifications, etc) and was wondering how much MB it uses. My plan has:
"Email and Internet BB 500MB flex" and it says "Email and Short messages".
I was wondering how much that is. Would I go over if I checked my emails a few times a day, etc.

There is no way you're going to go anywhere near 500 MB in one month checking emails......NOT EVEN CLOSE!
First of all, having a BlackBerry automatically reduces your data usage because all data passes through RIM's servers where it is compressed before being sent to your phone. Try that on an iPhone or Android!
Unless you're watching a LOT of streaming videos, you probably won't even hit 100 MB a month, so I wouldn't give it another thought. Go ahead and check those emails.
I hope that helps you.
- If my response has helped you, please click "Options" beside my post and mark it as solved. Clicking the "thumbs up" icon near the bottom of my response would also be appreciated.
