IWeb Newbie here...I'm Confused

I am using iWeb to publish a web page using a .Mac account. I was under the impression that if I wanted something to be visible on my web page, then I would need to have that file in my iDisk.
However, I have used cut and paste in iWeb and the pictures look fine on the website and the source files are NOT in my iDisk. Does iWeb create a "separate" file structre?
Someone said to go to the folder "sites" in the iDisk. I did and it's empty, yet my web page look fine. I understand using iDisk if I wanted to share files with other or if I am using different computers. I just thought every file on my homepage had to be in iDisk for users to see my page.
Can anyone clarify? Thanks.

That's where I am confused. Let's say I have a link
to an MP3 file in iWeb. The file is in iTunes but
not in my iDisk. Is there a difference?
You don't need to worry about things you include from your hard drive from itunes or iphoto or elsewhere via the media browser or drag drop or Insert > Hyperlink > File. They are included in your site and copies are uploaded automatically.

Hi everyone

Newbie here and having just swapped from a Windows machine to my mac I am finding a problem with itunes.
Please in words of one syllable . . could some one please say if using the "Open Stream" in advanced icon will allow me to connect to BBC local radio?
If so, please could they say how?

Hi Macadam_ace,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Do they have their show on the internet? The iTunes Help document says,
"If you know the Internet address (URL) of an MP3 streaming broadcast, you can connect to it using iTunes.
Choose Advanced > Open Stream.
Enter the full URL of the file you want to listen to. For example, http://www.apple.com/itunes/sample.mp3."
I hope that helps,

Can I use one hard drive for two computers? Newbie here.

Newbie here.
I currently use Time Machine for my iMac (Intel)
I've been using my Macbook Pro (Intel) a lot lately and would like to back it up from time to time as well.
Can I simply attach the external hard drive to my Macbook Pro and set up Time Machine?
Can use the external hard drive for both machines?
Will Time Machine recognized that my Macbook Pro is a separate computer and set up a separate folder on the external hard drive automatically?
Thanks

Hi,
you can use the drive for as many Macs as you like, just make sure it's big enough. Time Machine will create separate folders for your Macs and will "know" which one you're using.

Hi newb here , Can anyone help with Port Forwardin...

Hi guys
Newb here on Broadband Option 3 .
New to the world of BTorrents ( hope thats not a dirty word ) and just need some help on Port Forwarding with the Curved Blue Voyager ( latest one I think )
Problem is I can't seem to upload anything back and obviously I dont just wanna leech all the time lol
Thanks in advance
H

First of welcome to BT Community Forums, although your in the help with speed/connection issues section and bit-torrent is nothing to do with BT but i'll still try to help.
downloading a torrent file is one thing but just because you download does'nt mean you need to upload anything if for example your downloading something with say 100 seeders and 15 leechers then you may find that you dont upload anything or very little, thats nothing to worry about at all.
Or
If you've made a torrent and cant figure out why its not uploading it may be due to the fact you need to upload the small torrent file to a p2p site in order for others to see it.
Hope this small insight into the world of torrents helps, but i dont know what else to tell you on this subject.
Kindest Regards

[multithread] newbie here ... is inputStream shared?

Hi, a newbie here. I've been playing with java for six month now and it's been pretty fun. Looking forward to learn more about java from this forum. Now I have a question about this little project I've been doing.
I'm currently developing a multi-threaded client-server application (both client and server are multi-threaded). The idea is very easy which is to create threads that send http request to one server which will send back XML to the
corresponding thread.
I've managed to make it work. My application can now make http request and get the XML it's looking for. However, problem occurs when I try this scenario:
1. Client Thread 1 http request> server -> creates server thread 1
I made Server Thread 1 sleep for awhile so Client Thread 1 has to wait for the response.
Then, while Server Thread 1 is still on sleep, I make another http request:
2. Client Thread 2 http request> server -> creates server thread 2
I again Server Thread 2 sleep for awhile so Client Thread 2 has to wait for the response.
Now, Server Thread 1 wakes up and returns the XML response message. Now the funny thing is the Client Thread that accepts this response is not Client Thread 1, but Client Thread 2:
3. Server Thread 1 wakes up -- XML response --> Client Thread 2 reads the response instead of Client Thread 1.
What could be the problem!? What's also weird to me is that, if I try to do this scenario using a browser (by executing http request), the problem doesn't happen. Client Thread 1 returns to Server Thread 1 and Client Thread 2 returns to Server Thread 2.
The code I wrote consist of a thread objects which has it's own private UrlConnection, InputStream, OutputStream, etc.
This is a snippet of my code:
public class Process {
// this is how I create my threads
public void execute(DataSource datasource, ADData ad)
HttpProcess httpRequestor;
try
httpRequestor = new HttpProcess(datasource,ad);
httpRequestor.start();
catch (Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
public class HttpProcess extends Thread {
private URL url;
private HttpURLConnection urlConn;
private DataSource ds;
private ADData adData;
private BufferedReader d;
private BufferedWriter t;
private InputStream in;
private OutputStream out;
private DataInputStream din;
private DataOutputStream dout;
public HttpProcess (DataSource datasource, ADData ad)
this.ds = datasource;
this.adData = ad;
// this is how I implement my run method
public void run ()
try
String urlmsg = "http://localhost:9050" +
"/?field1=" + adData.getField1()+
"&field2=" + adData.getField2()+
"&field3="+ adData.getField3();
System.out.print("Sending URL message : " + urlmsg);
url = new URL(urlmsg);
urlConn = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
urlConn.setRequestMethod("GET");
urlConn.setDoOutput (true);
urlConn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type",
"application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
out = new BufferedOutputStream(((HttpURLConnection)urlConn).getOutputStream());
dout = new DataOutputStream(out);
t = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(dout));
t.flush();
while(listening)
in = new BufferedInputStream(((HttpURLConnection)urlConn).getInputStream());
din = new DataInputStream(in);
d = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(din));
String inputStr;
if ((inputStr = d.readLine())!=null)
din.close();
XMLParser xmlparser = new
XMLParser(ds,adData,ajData);
listening = false;
d.close();
I thought I had it right by having private inputStream for each thread. but the behavior looks like the inputStream is shared by the two threads. However, I'm still new with java so I know my conclusion worth zero. Has anybody ever bumped into this kind of problem? Looking forward to hear back what you guys think. I'm just really really really curious about this problem
Thanks so much.

Please use code tags ([code] and [/code]). It's also quite possible the problem is in your server code, or your test jig, etc. You should post a small example that replicates your problem.
Also, the while(listening) loop looks really screwy. I'm not sure what's going on there (why would you wrap your input stream inside a loop, especially since you close the input stream in the loop)?

Help!!! Newbie here!

Alright. I have CS3 and am 'trying' to get used to it. I am trying to do a vintage effect and of course this takes many steps. One of the steps (almost one of the lasts) is to go to Filter>Distort>Lens Correction AND then from there, use the Vignette Slider, etc...
Well, Under MY Filter, there is NO distort, there was in my CS2, so I dunno what the deal is. I used the Help Search and it found the distort under the Edit>Transform>Distort. BUT, the distort is greyed out! I have tried everything. It IS in 8 bit, I've even tried 16 bit... NOT working. The only time distort even comes up is if I go to another 'blank' layer... and of course, I can't do anything with it! :(
so, what do i need to do to get the distort working... it's there, but it's greyed out. Please help. And I don't know if this will give my email or not, please feel free to email me also with your help! :D thanks!

Newbie Here - Constant Crashing & Can't Load Files CS5.5

A complete newbie here....I have started a project, imported clips, everything works great. I edit my sequence, I've got a create basic edited video. I save the project. That was a great days work....
Now everytime I re-open a project, it sits there loading for what feels like eternity. The video never loads into the "program" viewing area, but I can see the clips and a thumbnail of the clips in the Sequence section below.
And then it crashes while trying to play the program, most of the time.
If it doesn't crash it's simply choppy and I cannot play the program still.
However, if I start from sratch, new project, load clips in, everything plays smoothly so I don't believe it is my hardware that's causing the problem. I'm getting tired of re-editing the same clips over and over.
Suggestions?

Alright...I have some more info...I looked into the windows event viewer...

IWeb Newbie Question: Removing "Drag Image Here" Placeholder

Hi,
I'm new to iWeb and creating my website for the first time. I've added an audio file to one of my pages, but I'm not sure how to remove the "Drag Image Here" placeholder from that file in the work area. I realize the placeholder doesn't show up on the actual website if I don't put any image in there, but the placeholder still clutters up the workspace where I'm designing the page.
Is there any way to remove that placeholder?
Thanks in advance for any help or advice.
Regards,
Keith

just try this simple method. it will not get rid of the placeholder - but it will hide it a make your iWeb building easier:
1. from the "forms" button choose a square
2. make it the background color or the color where the audio is placed, using the inspector!
3. Using the right-click or Ctrl-Left Mouse Click send the audio file to the very back.
4. make sure that the navigation bar is still at the very front and nothing covers it - because otherwise you cannot use it!

XP Newbie Java P. & JRE Confusion Updates & Error

Hi!
I posted this in TechArena, and received a post in reply that suggested I should post here instead...
I'm an eternal newbie with computers though I never stop trying to learn. I've looked through many posts & don't see an answer to my questions, so I hope this is the right place to ask them.
I have a Dell Inspiron 1300 laptop with XP Home v. 5.1.266. I use Firefox and AVG. My computer was getting slow and in the last few days some programs started crashing. Today Corel Photo Album crashed. In trying to google the error report I found something mentioned about Java needing old versions deleted, so I checked mine. And this is where I got confused.
Firest of all, I don't understand what the difference is between "Java Platform" and Java Runtime Environment" and I don't understand which version I should have of each. What I do have is:
Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2_03
Java 6 Update 14
Version 6.0.140
Java 6 Update 7
Version 1.6.0.70
Could someone one tell me what I should have on my computer?
Also, I read in a post that one shouldn't install an update until the old versions are deleted, yet in another post (somewhere) it said to update and then delete the old versions. I don't know which to believe. Could I get some advice on which is correct?
Thank you very much!
dorij

Thanks for the advice. I did what you said. Then Spybot did a whole scan which took a while. When it returned the computer to me, all the versions of Java were gone from Add/Delete programs. I decided to do a search on "java" just to see what came up. A huge list came up; things like Java Plug.doc, java_install_reg.log, a folder labeled javaws thats located in Sun\Java\Deployment. I'd copy the list, but I don't know how. There are about 89 items on the list.
Should these files be there? I haven't yet reinstalled the correct update.
Thanks again.

How can my wife update my iWeb on her Mac without using Mobile Me?

I got a new MacBook, with Mobile Me. I made a website using iWeb.
I want her to be able to update it. She does not have Mobile Me. She has a MacBook (it's silver, before it became a MacBook Pro), too, 10.5.8.
I know I can copy the Domain File under Library/Application Support/iWeb... BUT - when I put it on her computer, iWeb opens and asks for a Mobile Me account log in.
Is it possible for her to work on this iWeb file without logging in with my Mobile Me? Seems like if she logged in with my Mobile Me log in that would be bad.
Please don't tell me she needs Mobile Me or I'll kick myself for not getting the family pack.

#1 Make sure you are both using the same version of iWeb (iWeb > About iWeb).
__You can't be editing with different versions.
#2 You can put your MobileMe login on her computer if you like. That would allow her to publish whatever changes she might make to your iWeb domain (not to mention sync her calendar with yours etc etc)
#3 If you are using the current version of iWeb (iWeb '09), click on the Site on the left hand side (the cloud) of iWeb and change it from MobileMe to FTP or Local Folder. Then give her the domain. When you receive it back post-edit, you can change the Site Setting back to MobileMe.
Hope that helps.

Iweb newbie

I have gone through the tutorials on .mac and have created a weg site for my business. My questions is if I publish it to. mac, do you have to type in tags for search engine. So if someone does a search on yahoo or google will my web site get displayed? If not how does other people find a web site published on .mac. Or will I have to publish my site on .mac as well as a third party?

Here are some more details on how to get your site listed more/better/faster:
1. Go to http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl and submit your URL. Submit both yourdomain.com and http://web.mac.com/yourusername
FYI, if you use forwarding on yourdomain.com, Google will be happier/more likely to index your mac.com addresses. No way around this.
2. Submit your site (either URL) to http://www.iwebusersites.com
3. Get other people you know to post links to your site, and you should include your url when you post in bulletin boards/forums, etc. The more places your links are, the more likely Google is to find you.
4. Add Meta tags to your pages.
Get MassReplaceIt
http://www.hexmonkeysoftware.com
Here's a page on how to use it:
http://web.mac.com/will.englefield/iWeb/WillG4PB/MRI.html
Tell it to search for
</head>
Replace with
<meta name="description" content="insert description of your site"><meta name="keywords" content="keywords for your site separated by commas"></head>
5. This is a big one: Check the text on your page - perhaps it is being converted to images. Make sure you use a web safe font, put text in text boxes, not shape boxes, and don't add effects (shadows, etc) to the text or text boxes. This way Google has something to search on your pages.
6. Create a sitemap and submit it to Google
https://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/docs/en/about.html
in conjunction with this
http://www.sitemapdoc.com/Default.aspx
There are instructions for doing this all over the forum if you do a search.
7. Wait patiently. It takes time

IWeb Newbie: Blog HTML Question

Hi, I'm relatively new to IWeb and have a question relating to blogs created in Iweb. When I create a new entry for my blog, and try to add a video for youtube (as a link) in place of the default picture, the video does not appear on my main page. I have used the html snippet and see the video on my blog entry page, however it does not appear on my main page. How do I go about including video's in a new blog entry page so I can view them directly from my main (intro) page? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

I am using the Modern Frame template for my web site. When I add the blog template, a pre-set template shows up. Is there any way to edit or change it?
no and yes... no, you can't do much of anything while working inside iweb; yes, you can change it by changing the template xml file. Suzanne Boben at 11Mystics.com have done it for years.
For example, I would like to change the hyperlink color from red to blue. It won't let me do that. I go to the hyperlink inspector and I can't choose anything.
outside of changing template xml, this can be done in two ways (beside the above method):
1) post edit the blog CSS file (search my post for blog CSS), this requires post edit and perhaps after every publishing.
2) build your own widget to change the blog CSS and you only need to add the widget once. see my example here: http://www.cyclosaurus.com/Home/CyclosaurusBlog/CyclosaurusBlog.html
the example is done with my widget.
Also, when I view the web site on my computer, it looks fine, however when I view it on my iphone 3GS it shows an old font that I was using, why?
