Legal advice for UK

Advice please.
Five years ago I designed a site for a small business, and since then have managed. I have done it out of enjoyment rather than financial gain, which has been very little.
The business is a partnership between my wife and another woman, based on a 60/40 split (my wife has the lower %).
The business has paid for the domain name ("JaneSmith.com") and hosting.
Following a life threatening illness for my wife, the relationship between the two of them has turned very sour, with my wife now planning on leaving.
Because of the way things have happened, I know longer wish to run the site. The images are mine, the design etc. is.
Where do I stand re. pulling the site offline.
Obviously I would inform Jane Smith of my intentions. Not especially gallant maybe but this has been a bad time.
Many thanks
Paul Marconi

DW forums cannot offer legal advice.
We're users of DW like yourself asking and answering software questions. Some here are web professionals, others hobbyists and everything in between.
Random thoughts which cross my mind:
If you don't have a written contract and the relationship is broken, just hand the files over and call it a day
If you do have a written contract and the business is over for you and your wife, just hand the files over and call it a day.
But, as Beth says, if you intend on taking things further and holding onto your files, then seek legal advice in your local area.
From the perspective of "doing the right thing", I would leave the site as it is, hand over the files, make clear that you're not involved any more (or available as a Help desk) and wish her best of luck.

  • Help!!! Legal advice for using iTunes music as a DJ in the UK

    Hi. I work as a DJ and would like to use music I have purchased from iTunes in a club where all licences (PPL & MCPS) are paid. Can I get permission or pay a fee that allows me to do this legally? And if so how do I go about this?
    Please help!!!

    DJ in the UK, Typically the way that it works here in the United States clubs pay royalties to ASCAP, BMI etc.... and the Governing body is the RIAA, The Club usually purchases or Pays the DJ in which the Licensing fees are paid. To the best of my understanding Apple abides by domestic and international laws that prevail with regard to copyright and royalties ie. RIAA and other governing agencies internationally.
    To the best of my understanding after reading Apples TOA you are in no way prohibited from playing that music you legally purchased for a Public Audience as long as local applicable Laws and Licensing fees which by the way are not dictated by Apple, are paid. Apple is a retailer not a governing body. The terms of the sale, TOS or TOA terms of agreement from the Apple store are intended to protect Apple from any unwarranted legal actions. However, since Apple is a private for profit company and not a Governing Institution. For the laws in your area I would contact a Barrister familiar with Copyright and Royalties similar to the RIAA, Ascap and BMI here in the U.S.A.

  • Unable to find any active legal regulations for determination proc. "TEST1"

    Hi Guys
    This is in regards to a Customs document for a Payment doc
    We have just finished the configuration of the Finance integration which will stop blocked partners during the Payment run
    Now when we create a Proposal in the Payment run in ECC, the same document gets transferred to GTS, now even though the SPL is active when we check the Log there is a message Unable to find any active legal regulations for determination proc
    Upon further investigation of the customs document i found 2 things
    1) In the Geography section Country of Departure is populated with US, but the Country of destination is blank, this might be a reason as the Legal regulation checks both the countries and then activate, any idea how i can get the same to populate?
    2) If the above population does happen, from which partner type should it come from, as in my customs document only Vendor and Bank is there, in the PO customs document this is being populated properly
    Any idea what is wrong here?
    Thanks
    Carl

    Hi Dave
    Thanks for answering again.
    I have tried activating it at country level, country/country, country/group, Same result in case of all
    As i know now since the Country of Destination is missing, it cannot activate the last two, but the same is also not working at country level.
    So is there anyway to maybe have some partner function which can populate the Destination country.
    Any other advice will be really helpful..
    Thanks

  • Is there legal software for Macs?

    I am looking to create healthcare and financial power of attorneys through legal software. However, I have had no success going to stores locally and locating any. Does anyone know if such a thing exists for Macs?
    (I would be more than happy to hire an attorney, however, that is $1k and eeps... a bit spendy.)

    I suspect that what you're looking for is not Mac software for lawyers, but legal advice/templates. It's not going to be easy to find Mac software for something like that. Almost all I ever looked at were for Windows. So perhaps your best option for this job is to install Win under Boot Camp.
    Alternatively, you could google for stuff which is not platform-dependent. For instance,
    <http://www.standardlegal.com/>
    supply legal forms in MS Word, PDF, or plain text format. Any of these should work on your Mac (you can use OpenOffice, LibreOffice, or NeoOffice if you don't have MS Word). (Note that I give the link above just as an example. I've never used their forms, so I don't know how good they are.) There are also free sites which provide on-line fillable forms, and they should also work with your Mac.

  • Implementing Country legal changes for US/Canada/Australia

    Hello Experts,
    We need your expertise advice in implementing Country Legal Changes for US/Canada/Australia.
    Currently we are at HRSP 29, implemented HRSP41 in this week and implementing HRSP 42 in next month, Can you please advice us are there any specific notes related to Country Legal Changes needs to be implemented (manually and automatically with HRSP42)?
    Any help would be appreciated!!!
    Thanks
    Sreeni

    Since you are talking of HRSP 41, you should be on SAP_HR EnhP6.04.
    You should visit service.sap.com/hrcanada to read on what notes must be applied after the base HRSP (or CLC).  If I remember correctly, the "Year-End Note for Canada" should be available on December 1st, and if required, a Delta Note will become available mid-December.  There may also be individual Notes to apply up to late February if some things need to be corrected for the T4/T4A process (Forms, Magmedia, etc...).
    You should also visit service.sap.com/hrusa for information on US Year-end, and the ERP HCM Payroll North America discussion forum (SAP ERP HCM Payroll North America).
    As for Australia, the SAP Service Marketplace webpage (when you visit /hrcanada or /hrusa) has a "menu" on the left hand side of the page where you could follow SAP ERP Human Capital Management > Country Information > Asia-Pacific > Australia.
    An other source of information may be the Wikis on the Country's Payroll (http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ERPHCM/ERPHumanCapital+Management)

    There should be no issues. Its designed to work like that.  You don't change Apple IDs just because you get a new device.

    Unlikely. But nothing is impossible.   Though I don;t see how that would happen. As long as both are signed into the Same Apple ID / iCloud Account they will be N'Sync. (Bad Joke)

    If I get a message or buy an app or take a photo on the iPhone 5, how do I get those things onto the iPhone 6?
    If you buy an App, you have 2 ways to get it to the iPhone6: If Automatic Downloads is enabled in Settings->iTunes & App Store, it will automatically download to the iPhone 6 when you buy it on the 5 and vice versa if you buy it on the 6, it will download to the 5.
    Alternatively, you can simply go to the App Store App->Updates->Purchased and look for the App there and download it. Purchased Apps will not require payment again. i.e They'll be free to download to the iPhone 6 once purchased.
    SMS Messages will sync over using Continuity as long as they are on the same Wifi network. Otherwise, restoring the iPhone 5 backup to the iPhone 6 will transfer all messages received up until the backup was made onto the iPhone 6.
    Images, can be transferred either through Photo Stream
    My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support
    Or any Cloud service you want such as Dropbox, or One Drive.
    mannyace wrote:
    Also, something i forgot to ask initially: Should I update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8 first or does that not matter?
    If you want the Continuity features as explained above you need to update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8. Otherwise its not all that important.

  • Multiple libraries, Pbook/Pmac, advice for management & updating please.

    Hi Everyone,
    I travel frequently, and am looking for suggestions to keep all my iPhoto libraries up to date. I currently have a g5, Powerbook, and Mini.
    I just upgraded to iPhoto 6 and I have several thousand photos on my Dual g5. I just came back with 1000 more from my diving trip. The problem is, they are on my Powerbook, and taking up alot of space on the relatively small hard drive. I managed to work through the rough upgrade from 5 to 6, and now I need some more help...
    1) What is your advice for managing multiple libraries of photos.
    2) What is the best way to transfer the iphoto pics (and movies) to my desktop, which of course has the larger storage capacity, after travelling...
    Thanks,

    Jason:
    There are several different approaches to what you want to do. Let me just throw out a couple that I'm familiar with.
    To get the new photos from your PB to your G5 and maintain any keywords, and other organization effort you put into them, you'll need the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager. It will allow you to merge libraries or copy between libraries and maintain the metadata, etc. That's the only way currently available to move photos from one library to another and keep the roll, keywords, comments, etc. with those photos. You can connect the two Macs with one in the Target Mode, probably your PB, and then run iPLM to move the photos to the G5 library.
    Now there is a way to have a library on your PB that reflects the one on your G5 but is only a fraction of the size. That's to have an alias based library on your PB that uses the Originals folder as its source of source files. (My 25,600 files, 27G, are represented by an iPhoto Library folder of only 1.75G). When the PB is not connected with the G5, say with a LAN, it will have limited capabilities which are in part: you'll only be able to view the thumbnail files, be able to add comments, create, delete or move albums around, add keywords (but with some hassle-but it can be done). You can't do anything that requires moving thumbnails around, work with books, slideshows or calendars. Once the two computers are networked together again the library will act as normal.
    Now while on the road you can have a "normal" library to import new full sized files, keyword them, add comments, etc. and then transfer to the G5 library. Once in the G5 library they will be represented in a roll(s) and corresponding folder in the Originals folder. You then fire up the "alias" library, and import those new folders in the G5 Originals folder.
    It may be a lot of work but it may be one way of doing it.
    I've not done any of the "sharing" with iPhoto so don't know if that's another possible candidate for transferring.
    P.S. FWIW I've created this workflow for converting from a conventional library to an alias based one.

  • Advice for real performanc​e of LV8.5 operate in the XP and Vista

    Hi all
    My company had purchased new computers for LabVIEW programming purpose.
    We may install the LV8.5 in these computers but OS are not decided yet. Also, we have the current PC is only XP licensed
    Therefore, can anyone give the advice for the real performance advantage of using :
    LV8.5 with Vista over LV8.5 with XP
    LV8.5 with Vista over LV7.1 with XP
    LV7.1 with Vista over LV7.1 with XP
    New computers detail:
    Intel(R) Pentium(R)Dual-Core processor E2160
    BCH-P111 -1.80GHz, 1MB L2 cache, 800MHz FSB
    2GB RAM
    Thanks
    Best Regards
    Steve So

    The biggest issue I have seen with 8.5 Vista vs. XP is that if you leave Vista in the standard theme, the fonts have changed.  I designed several front panels to have them be out of whack with XP.  So if you are going to be using code across platforms, you need to keep in mind they will look different unless you use the XP theme in Vista, or customize your fonts to make sure they remain the same between the systems.  The dialog font is a different size (13 on Vista vs. 11 on XP), and a different font (can't remember the difference).  That was the big one I noticed.
    8.5 over 7.1 is mostly going to be the learning curve to learn the new features.  Overall, I have appreciated the changes, but there are some things (mostly development related) that I have seen run a little slower in 8.5 than in 7.1, but have not noticed any runtime issues as of yet.  One big change between the versions is application building, which is more complex in 8+.  I do appreciate the new features, though, but NIs project still hasn't rubbed me the right way yet.
    NI doesn't support LV 7.1 with Vista.  I have used it and haven't seen any problems, but that doesn't mean one won't pop up.  If you're going to stay with 7.1, you better stay with XP.  8.5 is the first version NIs supports as Vista compatible.  You will also have to use a relatively new set of device drivers, so if you have old hardware you are trying to use in your new system, make sure it is cimpatible with the latest drivers.
    I have actually had more issues with other hardware drivers and software packages than I have with LabVIEW.  TestStand is not yet supported in Vista, and i found out the hard way, one of the ways it is incompatible and had to move back to XP for devlopment.

  • Can I legally use for commercial purposes the Photoshop CS6 Extended Student Version?

    Can I legally use for commercial purposes the Photoshop CS6 Extended Student Version or do I have to get the Photoshop CS6 Extended normal (commercial) version? I want to make a game and I'll use things created in Photoshop, like images. And I'll sell this game, so I'll get money with it: it's something commercial. Do I have to get the commercial version for that or can I use a Student's one?
    And can I make what I need to do in a trial version and then pay the license before selling the game or it's obligatory to have the license since the beggining?
    See you!

    You can start work on your game from the moment you download and complete the installation of the Trial version.
    No-one will be standing over you watching what you do or monitoring you remotely or noting when you pay for the software.
    You can buy the software at any time during the Trial period. However, after a maximum 30 days of using the Trial, you will have to pay to keep using the software.
    Other than that, do what you like with the Trial.
    (If you somehow finish the game after 20 days of using the Trial then you can start selling the game even if you have not yet purchased the software.)

  • I need to synch my iphone, ipod touch and classic to a Mac that I have and 2 I am about to buy. I have legally paid for all my music. If I use migration on my new Macs and clone the original, can I use my iAppliances on all 3 Macs?

    Yes.
    You can authorize up to 5 computers to play itunes music ( pre-itunes plus).  There is no limit on itunes plus ( all itunes music for the past several years) and imported music.
    You can sync as many ipods/ipads/iphones as you like to each of your computers.

  • Creation of ACH pmt advice for EU C.Cd (PMW activated)

    Hi experts,
    I'm a little at loss with my 1st dealings with the payment medium workbench. I got a requirement to setup payment advice a EU company code that currently sends out ACH payments without advice.
    Currently In FBZP,
    1- The EU CCd is a paying company and the form is the same Z_REMITT_S used for the client's US company.
    2- The ACH payment method is defined for the country. The medium is the payment medium workbench and the format is Z_SEPA_CT.
         The US company uses the classic workbench and program RFFOUS_T for ACH.
    3- In Define Payment Method for Company code, I hit a snag because Under Form Data, there is only the "Drawer on the Form" segment; the entire "Forms" segment where you'd select your script is missing.
    Bottom line is How do I set up payment advice for ACH for a EU company paying EU vendors? (am I even asking the right question here?)

    maybe OP want to extract all numbers from his inbox using regular expressions?

  • Automatic creation of remittance advice for employee expense reimbursements

    Hello experts
    Is there a way to have remittance advices for employee expense reimbursements created automatically at the time of payment media run? In case of suppliers, in the supplier base you can heck "Advice Required" and then at the time of media run the remittance advice can be generated alongwith the payment. Is there a similar setting that can be done for employees?
    Thanks
    Gopal

    Hi
    Just to follow on from Ravi's reply:  most sites that I work at have the report RPRAPA00 scheduled to run on a periodic basis (define the job via transaction code SM36) to automatically create employee's vendor accounts.   A screen variant is usually saved for the program, and then the batch session is monitored on a regular basis to ensure that it has run successfully.
    Cheers
