Mobile Me-V-Flikr & Wordpress

I know there will be those for and against either Mobile-Me or Flikr and both options are available on Aperture.
What is the best photo host to use, or are they much the same, with just different names..?
I am not a yahoo fan and I am not keen to open an email-ID just to use Flikr..?
I do find Mobile Me quite slow and that can be off-putting.
Wordpress Blog:
Is it possible to tie in Wordpress to Aperture for posting pics to my blog..??
Regards
Paul

Are you are already paying for a MobileMe subscription? If so, try posting a sample gallery and see if you like the results. Otherwise, $99/year for MM is not a very good bargain compared to Flickr's free/$25 yearly fee (pro acct) if the only thing you're looking for is online photo hosting.
Flickr photo galleries do seem to be served faster than MobileMe galleries; they are also potentially higher-resolution and Flickr's slideshows can be displayed in true full-screen (not just full-window.)
I'm not sure what is the downside of "open[ing] an email-ID"; it needs to be used for nothing more than Flickr membership login. Like Flickr, a MobileMe subscription is automatically associated with an email address, so I'd say the two services are equivalent in that respect.
There is no explicit connection between Aperture and Wordpress except to the extent that your Aperture photos and albums will show up nicely in a File Open dialog window when you go to pick a photo to upload with your blog postings. There are Wordpress plugins to enable slideshows etc on your blog using images pulled from many photo hosting sites, including Flickr and MobileMe, but that functionality is only connected to Aperture in the sense that you may have previously uploaded photos to those sites with Aperture.
Personally I prefer hosting my photos on Flickr, partly because of the connection you inherit to an online community of other photographers. Built-in geo-display (displaying the locations of geo-tagged photos on interactive Yahoo maps) is a big plus for me, and for more exotic applications Flickr has a very full featured API - both these features are absent in MobileMe.

Transfer iweb/mobile me site to wordpress

I moved my iweb/mobile me site to wordpress over the weekend, in the process losing access to the old hosted iweb site and the comments that had been posted. Anyone know how to access those old pages now that my domain points to my new wordpress site?
thanks!

Fluid grid for Wordpress: insert PHP code into DW or DW code into Wordpress?

This may be a stupid question but it's a dilemma for me. Here's the problem. I want to create a mobile first, fluid grid Wordpress website in Dreamweaver CS6 based on an existing Wordpress theme. I can see two ways of doing that:
1) Create a fluid grid layout in DW, then insert the Wordpress PHP code into the right places in DW
Pro: the fluid grid layout is set up by DW and therefore can be easily edited with DW (I imagine)
Con: It is beyond my coding skills to make a fully functional WP template
2) Take an existing responsive Wordpress template with media queries and edit that in Dreamweaver
Pro: I start with a fully functional WP template and only have to make changes (mostly in CSS) to customise it
Con: When I start with an existing template (like Skeleton) I run into trouble using DW
For example: I click a navigation button to get at the CSS but it's not clear to me from DW's interface in which media query I have to make changes. I did a tutorial on creating a fluid grid layout with DW so I can do that. But DW doesn't work the same way with an existing WP template like Skeleton. I searched the web but all I can find is help on creating a fluid layout with DW, not editing an existing one.
By the way, I am experienced with HTML/CSS but not PHP and I have a local Wordpress server running on my Mac so I can work in Dreamweaver's Live View.
The problem may be that I am only just starting with responsive web design and need some more experience with media queries, css rules and DW CS6. Could anyone comment on this problem or point me towards more information on the subject?
TIA!

You can certainly use DW to customize a 3rd party WP Theme. However, you must be throughly familliar with how WordPress Themes work and have a good working knowledge of HTML, CSS and PHP code. Design View will not be much help to you.
WP Themes are a sum of their various parts: header.php, footer,php, sidebar.php, page.php, index.php, archive.php, etc... The web server parses code from the various parts and creates whole pages on the fly. Once WP is deployed on your server, you cannot use DW to edit content. You must use the WP Admin Panel (CMS) to manage content, Themes, plugins and backup data.
For simple static sites, the FluidGrid Layout feature in DW is a nice starting point. But these layouts have definite limitations which, IMO would not be a good fit with WordPress.

FF reverts to the mobile version of wordpress bloggs instead of the full site.

I noticed this problem with wordpress blogg sites and then with spanishdict.com. I did come across some other sites which I could not view the full site unless there was a "full site" link on the mobile site, like there is on Spanishdict.com.
Thanks for any information and or suggestions you can come provide.

Firefox Mobile zooming is not working on wordpress blogs

I use Firefox Mobile with Android 2.2 on the Notion Ink Adam. Pinch zooming works great on most pages but with every blog powered by wordpress I encoutered this problem (e.g. juancole.com and ironically notionink.wordpress.com).
The pinch gesture just stops working on these pages. I tried disabling JavaScript but that did not help.
The default font size is too small and there is no obvious way too change it essentially rendering Firefox Mobile useless for reading these blogs on my Adam tablet.

The mobile version of this site includes code to disable zooming. If you scroll all the way to the bottom of the page (hint: use two finger to scroll quickly to the top or bottom) and press the "Full Site" or "Regular Theme" link, then you will be able to zoom.
It would be possible to write an add-on to let Firefox ignore the code to disable zooming, but as far as I know this add-on does not exist yet.
You could also try the [https://addons.mozilla.org/mobile/addon/bigger-text/ Bigger Text] add-on. You will need to turn off the option to "ignore mobile sites" in the add-on's options.

Firefox hangs when I visit a wordpress 3.1 page in a theme and update it

Hi,
I use wordpress 3.1. I use a theme and sometimes (unexpectedly) when I try to update the page firefox hangs. Sometimes I can force quit, sometimes not. Upon restart it signals another version is running, this is not the case. I cannot find the file in the library section of my mac to remove the profiles file, because it is not visible as such
All other browsers do not respond anymore. I have to restart my computer. On my Iphone I do have internet so this is not my network
I tried installing, deinstalling and even updating to the beta and going back to cureent version again...
Please HELP I am going nuts ;-)

Hi Jumpman,
Thank you for your question. In order to clarify: the mobile bookmarks have their own folder by default. Check out the Bookmark Manager in Show all Bookmarks.
Also, there is a new version of sync. Make sure you are all set up with the new account with these instructions: [[How to update to the new Firefox Sync]]

What is happening with iCloud and its sync with mobile devices?

I have been an Apple fan for 4 years now. I currently have 4 Macs (2 @ 27" and 2 @ 21.5" models), 2 iphones (4s and 3gs) and an iPad (2). I use them all for business and personal use.
Prior to purchasing my iPhone 4s on release day in the UK I was also a fully signed up Mobileme family account user. Everything worked fine. When I purchased my iPhone 4s I switched everything from Mobileme over to iCloud. Followed all the instructions. Initially it seemed to work fine. But over the last few weeks it has all gone horribly wrong resulting in the following; amongst other problems:
iPhone 4s
My iphone 4s will no longer sync mail, contacts and calendar effectively. Mail will sync new mail in my inbox but I cant send any mail and when I do draft a mail and send it dissappears from the outbox, sent box and inbox (i always bcc mail). The number of contacts is a fraction of the number of contacts in my contracts file on my main Mac. Calendar will not let me sync or add any new entries...let alone sync with iCal on the Mac.
iPad 2
My iPad suffers from much of the same problems as my iPhone. When I go to settings on the iPad and go to Mail, contacts and calendar, the iPad just freezes. I then have to hard re-set to get it working again.
iPhone 3gs
I used this before I upgraded to the 4s. It suffers with the same problems as my 4s described above.
iCloud.com
The number of contacts on iCloud.com is fixed at 1625no; whereas my Mac has a clean set of contacts containing 1325no. When I try to delete contacts on iCloud.com it says I cant because of a server error. Mail and Calendar both seem to work fine though.
I am now left with a major business critical problem. Niether iCloud.com, my Mac or my mobile devices will sync with each other. Apple has excalated the problem and my iCloud account is currently being tested. In the meantime my Mac contacts has duplicated and increased upwards of 4,000 contacts.
This whole journey of bad expereince is driving me insane and making my love of all things Apple wain.
I have restored my mobile devices about 8-9 times each. I have restored from previous versions stored on iTunes and also set them up as new devices....which as any of you will know is a laborious process because you have to reconfigure the Apps icons each time you do this as a new device! None of my attempts have fixed the situation.
Are we or have we been used by Apple as guinea pigs to test the iCloud which, according to the communities and discussions on this site, leaves a lot to be desired. This is having a dramatic affect on my quality of life and business.
Please help me.....
Mark

For the most part if you just get a new webhost you can continue to run with iWeb. Since you are still running Tiger iWeb should work just fine for you. You will simply need to publish your website to a folder or with the built in FTP in iWeb. Apple has simply quit updating iWeb & there will come a day when iWeb quits working in the later OS's whatever kitty comes after Lion.

Safari 5.1.2 showing mobile site on macbook pro

I keep having a an issues where my web pages look like this:
Here is what I've tried:
1. Open your Safari web browser by clicking on the Safari icon in the dock.
2. Click on Safari in your Safari menu, located at the top of your screen.
3. A drop-down menu will now appear. Choose the... option labeled Reset Safari....
4. A warning dialog will now appear detailing the items that will be removed.
5. Click the button on the dialog labeled Reset to complete the process.
6. Your Safari browser will now restart automatically.
*didn't work*
Then I tried:
From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences - Advanced and make sure the Develop mode box is not checked. That way Safari will only load from your currently installed Safari version.
And from your Safari menu bar click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset.
*didn't work*
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Running Safari 5.1.2

I have the same problem on all browers, not just Safari. Some sites default to mobile (CNN, Weather.com among others), flagging user agent in Develop does not change the mobile default. Mac Genius Bar suggested reinstalling Snow Leopard could resolve the issue, installing Lion would certainly cure. Neither worked, Safari, Firefox, Chrome, Opera--all default to mobile on certain sites. I could live with the mobile sites, but losing view on WordPress is a pain (only html view shows now).

Can you build a mobile website in Muse and redirect to a desktop website which is not built in Muse?

Hi
I am looking at the idea of extending my photoshop monthly subscription to one that will give me access to Muse and Illustrator etc.
I have been building mobile websites on a mobile platform and then redirecting these to clients desktop sites - this is an option for clients who don't want to go the whole hog with new web design.
Is it possible to build a mobile website using muse and then redirect this mobile website to an existing desktop site that has not been built on Muse?
Thanks in advance
Michele

You can certainly use Muse for hosting on other hosts as well. You do lose some of the functionality of Business Catalyst such as In Browser Editing. I just saw that you did your current one in Wordpress ... so I assume there is a blog?
If so, keep in mind that Muse alone does not have a blog feature. You can integrate a Business Catalyst Blog into it with a bit of knowledge on how BC works.

Is there a Definitive Answer? Apple Mobile Device Support won't install

Firstly apologies, i have lost track of the number of threads i have read on this site, but none seem to resolve the issue. I am running Windows 7 64Bit (Professional), also have the same problem on a XP SP3 laptop... but the works laptop will allow the install, also win7 64 bit (but not alllowable software so need to uninstall)
I have mangemed to finally install Itunes and all associated software packages to 10.7.21, following months and months of hassle (last working version of itunes was down in 10.1.??)
BUT, frustratingly i still cannot get Apple mobile Device support to install. Before any one asks the obvious questions i have tried just about everything (assuming the one i havent tried is the one that works)
I have extracted the install file and ran that seperately, yes as administrator (both right click and forcing the compatibility in the file properties), both accounts on the machine, also created a new account and tried on that. Same issue as most people, failed to install and rolled back
I have tried installing whilst in compatibilty check and get a report that it is an incompatible application.
When opening Itunes itself i get a message that i need to install the 64bit version.
This is starting to get seriosly annoying in that my iphone 4 has now also decided to fail during an update to ios6... serves me right for listening to one of the genius's instore.
Anybody with any ideas please throw them this way. Next step is to format machine and start from scratch

So, after another evening of trawling the internet i found the following and decided it was worth a try
http://randomwindowstips.wordpress.com/2009/12/08/windows-7-itunes-9-software-is -not-installed/
The following is taken straight from Aurelius, so huge HUGE thanks. (This works if you still have 10.6.3, failing that, if you know anyone that has the latest version, this is how i got this **** programme to actually work (or wait, as this will be updated shortly!!) I had at this point let everything install from Itunes installer and again had the rollback on the AMDS.
Copy the following folders from a working machine to your machine (apologies if you don't know anyone with a working copy, keep an eye on the link as it will be updated)
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
Next, type regedit into windows search and allow the programme to start. Go to the following address:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Apple Inc.\Apple Mobile Device Support]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\Apple Mobile Device]
Right click and export the files. Next you need to copy them to your machine and double click them and allow to install. Restart and hopefully all is finally well (or it was on mine).
Good luck to anyone who finds this.

No Apple Mobile Device Support, how to get it back?

I unstalled Apple Mobile Device Support since I thought I would get it back when I downloaded the latest version of itunes. Instead an error message came up; There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A DLL required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact you rsupport personnel or package vendor. On viewing all programs to unstall/ delete/ or repair the Apple Mobile Device Support is not on the list. So I'm wondering how can i get Apple Mobile Device Support can be reinstalled when it's be deleted, and whether this can be done without downloading the most recent itunes and its related components. From the Control Panel I went to Programs and when I found itunes I clicked on repair to help with the Apple Mobile Device only to come across the following message, Service "Apple Mobile Device" failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services with the following options cancel, retry, and ignore. How do I get Apple Mobile Device Support back where can I download it and not have to download the latest itunes?Much help appreciated! Thanks.

I have looked at this article, and followed their instructions for uninstalling itunes and its related components. I wasn't able to delete Bonjour a related conpoment of itunes and got the following message, There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A DLL required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact you rsupport personnel or package vendor. So I am not able to finish the instructions. So far I've used the following website to download Apple Mobile Device Support and follow the instructions there to get it back.

I have recently bought a Seagate Goflex satellite mobile wireless hard drive. I have converted some of my AVI movies to mp4 and transferred them to the hard drive, but when I play them through my iPad 2 I can hear the sound but not see the movie. Help???

I have recently bought a Seagate Goflex satellite mobile wireless hardrive , i have converted some of my AVI movies to MP4 and loaded them onto the hard drive, when I try and play them through my I pad2 I can hear the sound of the movie but not see the film, somebody please help, what am I doing wrong as I have spent a lot of time converting these movies to be able to travel with my iPad and watch them. Thank you

Unfortunately, the drive is pretty much restricted without hacking it. That is, you can't stream its content via standardized protocols like UPnP, SMB, FTP and the like. This makes you won't be able to access its content from any third-party apps otherwise capable of playing back AVI files from UPnP / SMB / FTP / WebDAV etc. sources.
While this is certainly not a recommendation (I can in no way be held responsible if anything goes wrong): you may want to consider extending the capabilities of the drive by installing the hack: http://www.hackseagatesatellite.com/wordpress/welcome/
It'll "open" the drive for third-party, AVI-capable multimedia apps like GoodPlayer, It's Playing etc. to directly play the files over the network.
