IWeb Hints and Tips

How about hearing your Hints and Tips for iWeb?
Here's one to get the ball rolling.....
Most of my attempts at graphics have been done in Keynote due to the extra features that iWeb will hopefully inherit some day. (Apple please take note!)
The navigation buttons were made in iWeb and are a bit of a pain to do every time. Here's a tip on how to save them in a file for dropping into other web pages. I discovered this by accident when I was poking around the iDisk files to see what happened to my web pages after I hit the publish button.
Make up a page of your graphics and publish it. Then open up your local iDisk and go to Web/Sites/iWeb/Website/PageName_files and there you will find your graphics listed as shapeimage_1( 2 3 4....).png. Drag these out and drop them into your newly created Web Graphics folder. Drag and drop them onto iWeb pages as required.

This site changes with the wind - get to it quick before it disappears!
Due to an overload of graphics, music etc. it downloads at snail's pace - so much for "High Speed" internet.

Funky, I liked it
I keep all my graphics in an iweb images folder as the original .key files. This way, if I ever want to make a change to just the stroke or fill or the included text without redoing the image, I can.
Here's an added tip for Keynoters. If you bring over grouped shapes, iWeb will not allow you to add a drop shadow to them. To enable this, copy the group, open Preview, do a command-N, then copy the image from there. It'll get pasted into iWeb as a PDF and you'll then be able to add a shadow.

Hints and tips about OCP certification 10g

Hi,
in a few weeks I will have my certification test for OCP Oracle 10g.
For this I'm interested in hints and tips for the test. Did somebody completed this test (not the upgrade one) and could tell me please the main topic, some tips for best preparation and so on? Are the questions only "multiple choice" or are there also "fill-in" questions?
Thank you in advance
Dana

Hi Dana
It's all multiple choice. If you are going for OCP I assume you will be writing 10g DBA 2. The following link has exam details like passing score, points per chapter, etc.

Hints and tips for creating a wireless network with windows

G'day All,
I am trying to setup up a wireless network so I can share large files between my Macbook Pro and my housemates Windows XP machine.
I have no problem actually creating the network on my Macbook Pro and his windows machine can "see" it butI'm having trouble with my housemate's machine actually logging into my network (he can see it though).
I happy for him to dump the files (camera raw files) into my Drop box if it's the easiest solution.
Can anyone provide me with a basic step by step guide on what settings i need to fiddle with on both machines for it to work.
Thanks in advance.

FrameMaker FDK Developement - hints and tips needed

Hi.
I have looked around after information about how to develope with FrameMaker FDK, but I can't find any good examples for a FDK newbee.
Anyone that knows about some useful links where I can find information about how to get started?
I have tried google, but I couldn't find anything good.
Thanks,
Per

If you need to create quick fixes to speed up production, then definitely investigate Framescript first. It's a complete IDE environment that lets you try things out iteratively. It has virtually all of the capabilities of the FDK and lets you access system resources as well. The documentation is extensive and there is a third-party tutorial book available from Rick Quatro at http://www.frameexpert.com
There is an active group on Yahoo for this as well at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/framescript-users/
Depending upon where you reside there also are some training classes available for this via Front-Runner Training in Toronto,

Hints and Tips ... sorry... Like IBM's

Dear Folks,
I know something (very few) about oracle Database.
I'm also interested on Linux.
A friend presented me the following webpage which seems to be quite good:
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/offers/linux-speed-start/?S_TACT=103AMW01&S_CMP=sslx03tile#sek
In it I found a tutorial like:
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-ss3-db2/
Does OTN or any other Oracle webpage carry anything like this?
Is there any movement in order to provide such step-by-step tutorials?
Thanks!

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has used the Jurassic Park game on an i-pod and experienced it freezing or being very slow on a regular basis? If so, does anyone have any hints or tips?

Does anyone have experience of using the Jurassic Park app game on their i-pod touch, and experiencing freezing and/or slow response? If so, could you share any hints or tips that you have found that resolves these issues? Many thanks.

I have not seen that posted here before

Need step by step instructions for iWeb 08 and Autoviewer

I'm working with iWeb 08 and trying to make a photography website. I'm also using Lightroom 3 to export my portfolio galleries. I'd like to use Autoviewer as a way to view my photos on my site. I've done a few searches and can't figure out how to embed the galleries into the site.
I can see the gallery in iWeb but on the active site, mobile me says the viewer is not on the server.
Here is a link to my site: http://www.ronianashphotography.com
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I can't seem to get the gallery to stay on my iDisk. And I'm not sure where to save it to on the iDisk. Perhaps I need to export the gallery to my HD and then upload to the iDisk? I think I've been trying to export it directly to the iDisk.
????

I think I just answered my own question. I exported to my desktop and then added it to my iDisk.
If anyone has any other tips, that would be great. Not sure how to set up the size of the frames.

Created site in iweb 08 and posted to netfirms... the pages are all loaded up but there is no nav bar, it comes up on each page as a small black dot. How do I get the nav bar to load up and show?

I created site in iweb 08 and posted to netfirms... the pages are all loaded up but there is no nav bar, where the nav bar should be is only a small black dot on each page. How do I get the nav bar to load up and show? It was a disaster loading up my site as it changed the case of the letters and at first no pages were seen, so I had to go through and change the letters that were supposed to be cap, back to cap in every file. I don't know if this has something to do with it or not. The tech support doesn't have an answer. Please let me know if you have any ideas and solutions. Thanks bunches!

I am trying to find an app or software to burn iMovie slideshow to a dvd. I have a MacBook Pro with Mavericks. There are a lot of DVD Creator apps a the App store. Looking for a recommendation of what to use and tips.

I am trying to find an app or software to burn iMovie 11 slideshow to a dvd. I have a MacBook Pro with Mavericks. There are a lot of DVD Creator apps at the App store. Looking for a recommendation of what to use and tips. Thank you.

I've been using "Burn" for years and it has been the only DVD burning software I have ever used for the mac. I have never needed to look at other apps. Unless you want something that has more bells and whistles such as Roxio's "Toast" : http://www.roxio.com/enu/products/toast/pro/overview.html
There are thousands of quality free apps out there for the mac that are not part of the App Store. All you have to do is read reviews online, do a little search, the Apple forums are full of recommendations from experienced users that have been here for years...

Right-Click pop-up more than one Description and tip

Is it possible to edit the run-time popup menu for a right click on a control?
My front panel has a cluster within a cluster and the right-click popup menu gives you two different "Description and Tip" to select from. This is confusing for the user.
How do I edit the run-time right-click popup menu?

hi
search for right click, context menu etc. in this forum. there are several posted vis to create your own right-click menues and catch the selected item (some of them are really neat).

An error occurred while publishing file "/Web/Sites/iWeb/Jim and Steph's Si

I'm guessing this is a common message most see when they try to publish their website. Reason I say this, is it is the only message I have recieved in the last week when trying to use this faulty software.
Here it is again if you missed it:
An error occurred while publishing file “/Web/Sites/iWeb/Jim and Steph's Site/Jim's Blog”.
I got this MacBook week ago yesterday. Totally excited to share pictures and blog information. Spent 99 dollars or close to it for a mac account to simply share this information on the web. The first four pages (all pictures), I published worked well. Then I updated to iWeb 1.1.1 and tried to publish with blogs and more pictures and it won't work. Now all that I published before does not even come up. I emailed support here on mac.com and got the generic reply that I have already read on this forum. I tired as many fixes as I could to no avail. Two questions:
1. Any ideas to fix this problem?
2. Can you get your money back?
Sorry this was so long.
Thanks everyone,
Jim B

Jim...
Try doing a "Publish All to .Mac" if nothing else works for you. And if I could make a recommendation, it probably wouldn't be a bad thing to simplify your site name (Jim and Steph's Site) and eliminate the apostrophes (also in Jim's Blog). A longer site URL with complexities such as punctuation and spaces and even capitalization can potentially wreak havoc on your site navigation and function. Simplifying your site and page names will at the very least lead to shorter and more recognizable URLs...and when you start to add more pages it will also make the navigation menu at the top of your pages look "cleaner". Think simple names, like "oursite" and "HeSays" or "SheSays"
Just a suggestion.

IWeb 09 and Aperture

Does anyone know if iWeb 09 fixed the problem with Aperture generated MobileMe Photo Galleries not showing up when you want to insert a MobileMe Gallery widget on your web page? In iWeb 08 only iPhoto MobileMe Galleries showed up, which is a pain since I only use Aperture for my photos.

I use iWeb09 and Aperture2. I could use the gallery widget to link to galleries created with Aperture but only for some of them. One is not to be seen from iWeb.
I followed the suggestion: checked that Gallery are all in the right place on iDisk/../.. deleted iWeb plist and repaired permissions... no change.
If you have a look to my page www.pavesi.net and follow the link to "PHOTOS OF OUR HOLIDAYS" you will find the link to 3 gallery of Berlin and under them the link "QUI" to the gallery which I cannot see from iWeb...
Question : can Aperture publish Web pages to web.me.com ??? It still displays the link to Homepage....wich will be discontinued.

Pages for iPad is not recognizing the password I assigned to a document. I included a hint, and I know I am entering the password that goes with the hint. Is there anything I can do to access my doc?

Pages for iPad is not recognizing the password I assigned to a document. I included a hint, and I know I am entering the password associated with the hint. Is there anything I can do to access my document? i quite the Pages app and restarted it. Now I guess I'll reset the iPad and see if that helps. Thanks!

Interesting that one does not need the password to delete using Finder.
The Pages password protects the contents of the document. If there were a Finder password, it would protect what you might think of as the "file wrapper" ... the stuff around the file content.
Glad it's not vital. I have to say I only pasword protect those Pages documents that are, in fact, vital.
Best of luck.
