Need help with URLs (Mamp/Dreamweaver/Apple Lion)

I'm in the midst of a major upgrade - Apple Leopard > Lion and MAMP 1.x to 2.0.5. I also installed CS3, with Dreamweaver, on my new laptop.
Anyway, everything seems to be falling in place, except for one major snag - I can't view my web pages in a browser.
On my old laptop, I have it set up so that I can view each of my websites at a simple URL, like this: http://SL. My sites are stored in a top level folder named Sites.
I used the settings in my old computer as a guide in setting up a site in Dreamweaver and MAMP/Hosts on my new laptop, but I can't view a page at http://SL. http://localhost/SL and http://localhost don't work, either, whereas http://localhost:8888 prompts a "Forbidden" message.
However, I can access phpMyAdmin at http://localhost:8888/phpMyAdmin/?lang=en-iso-8859-1&language=English
When I was setting up the site in Dreamweaver, I got the following error message:
"Dreamweaver cannot use the prefix you entered to displaly live data. Please double-check your site configuration or click on Help for more information on how to correct this problem. (HTTP Error: 0)." I didn't explore the Help menu immediately, and I can't recreate the error message now.
I read somewhere that I should put my html folders in the htdocs folder so I tried that with one site, with the same result.
Anyway, can anyone tell me what I have to do to make a website located at Users > (Me) > Sites > SL display at http://SL?
Thanks.

In MAMP Pro setup ports for Apache/MySQL to 80/3306 then setup virtual host in Hosts tab. MAMP doesn't allow extending virtual hosts, only MAMP Pro does that. Are you using MAMP or MAMP Pro?
best,

Need help with session using dreamweaver

have created a login page (php/mysql) with username and
password boxes. when the form is submitted the mainpage loads up.
i want the main page to be specific to that user, so i want
their name to appear in the first line. eg.. Welcome back 'David'
I read a tutorial in the past that tought me to send the
users id in the URL and then create a record set on the mainpage
that was filtered by the URL parameter.
I have forgotten how to do this and the tutorial is no longer
available on Adobe's site.
I tried that with
$_SESSION['MM_Username'] = $loginUsername; \\ in first page
then
echo $_SESSION["MM_username"]; \\in second page, but the
problem is that is not showing user name.
i need help with that please!
can anyone tell me how to do this? Thanks in advance,
AM

IN the second page, you have to make sure that the session
has been started.
Put this at the very top of the page -
<?php if (!isset($_SESSION)) session_start(); ?>

I need help with re installing my apple account for itunes.

Had problems with my itune account, so I uninstalled and now need help with re-installing the program with the songs I have already purchased.

Your iTunes account is something at the iTunes Store online. It is not possible to uninstall it. Do you mean the iTunes application? Even if you delete the application and restore it, it should not have deleted your iTunes library (essentially the contents of the iTunes folder in Music) on your computer unless you did a separate steep and specifically deleted that too. You need to tell us what it was you deleted.

Need help with spacing in Dreamweaver

Hi I need help I making a site in Dreamweaver using a box format. I have ever thing done but I have a gap between my header and nav-bar that I can not close. What should I do?

By default, browsers add their own margins and padding to HTML elements. Many people use a CSS Reset to remove this default spacing and then add their own values to individual CSS selectors.
This quick and dirty reset uses an asterisk (*) as a wildcard selector. This removes default margins and padding from everything:
CSS:
* {margin:0; padding:0}
Other CSS Reset Methods:

Need help with rented movies and Apple TV

I rented two movies from the iTunes Store from my laptop rather than my Apple TV. I cannot get the rented movies to show up on my Apple TV. I've tried to "move" the two movies from my laptop to Apple TV via the Apple TV tab in iTunes where it shows both movies under a "Rented Movies" section and gives me the option to "move" each one to my Apple TV, but when I click on each movie to move it to the Apple TV and then hit "Apply," nothing happens (at least as far as I can tell). Is there someplace special I need to find rented movies using my Apple TV remote? I clearly need help, please!

Hi Winston,
I have purchased the third generation of Apple TV but have not installed it yet, so I am still using my second generation Apple TV, for which I posed this question. Is the answer different when using Apple TV II?

Need help with URL Redirect in Sun Web Server 7 u5

All I am trying to do is redirect to a static URL and for the life of me I can not get it to behave the way I would expect. I am new to Sun Web Server so I am just trying to use the Admin Console to set this up.
Here is what I'm trying to do:
Redirect from - http://www.oldsite.com/store/store.html?store_id=2154
To - http://www.newsite.com/Stores/StoreFront.aspx?StoreId=2154
Here's what I tried in the console.
Added a new URL Redirect
Set the Source to be Condition and set it to: '^/store_id=2154$' (quotes included)
Then set the Target to: http://www.newsite.com/Stores/StoreFront.aspx?StoreId=2154
Then for the URL Type I checked Fixed URL
When I tested with: http://www.oldsite.com/store/store.html?store_id=2154 it did redirect as desired
BUT
When I tested with: "http://www.oldsite.com/store/store.html?store_id=5555" it too got redirected to the Target and I can't figure out how this second URL can satisfy the condition to get redirected.
Any help is most appreciated.

thanks for choosing sun web server 7
it is simpler if you just edit the configuration files manually
cd <ws7-install-root>/https-<hostname>/config/
edit obj.conf or <hostname>-obj.conf (if there is one for you depending on your configuration so that it look something like)
<Object name="default">
AuthTrans..
#add the folllowing line here
<If defined $query>
<If $urlhost =~ "/oldsite.com" and
$uri =~ "/store/store.html" and
$query =~ "store_id=2154" >
NameTrans fn="redirect" from="/" http://www.newsite.com/Stores/StoreFront.aspx?StoreId=2154
</If>
</If>
..rest of the existing obj.conf. continues
NameTrans...
now, you can either do <ws7-install-root>/https-<hostname>/bin/reconfig -> to reload your configuration without any server downtime or <ws7-install-root>/https-<hostname>/bin/restart -> to restart the server
if it did work out for your, you will need to run the following so that admin server is aware of what you just did
<ws7-install-root>/bin/wadm pull-config user=admin config=<hostname> <hostname.domainname>
hope this helps

Need help with multiple devices and apple id

Between my husband and myself, we have two Iphones, two Ipads, and one Imac. I back all of them up on my Imac using ONE iTunes account....we prefer not use Icloud, and I think that helps keep the information on each device relatively separate from each other...no overlaps with contacts and calendars. We have one APPLE id and password, that we use for Itunes and the App Store. We just got the Iphone 6 for my husband, and it keeps asking him to enter his Icloud PW.(his recognized user name is his PRIMARY email address)...which presumably he does not have, nor does he need (or maybe he does I need some real guidance on that). To keep this from making him crazy can I just delete his Icloud account, which again presumably, was created automatically with the new Iphone 6 set up??
Similarly, I need to use FIND my Phone (etc), and HIS devices are not in MY listed devices....is this because he NEEDS his own APPLE ID, or is there a way to add his devices to my list of devices within the APP....I thought because we share the Itunes account they should all be in MY devices.
Can someone help me make sense of this?
THANKS!!

Hello melissaben6250,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are not seeing your husbands new iPhone 6 in your Find My iPhone app. First, while you may "prefer not use iCloud", you are using it, at least in regards to Find My iPhone for your existing devices.
Now, for your husband's phone and Find My iPhone. It sounds like during the setup of his phone, he logged in to his Apple ID and even possibly created another iCloud account. In order to see his phone on your existing Find My iPhone, it will have to log in to the iCloud account where the other devices are signed in. Take a look at this article on troubleshooting Find My iPhone, especially the first section on the device not appearing.

I need help with iCal after updating to Lion. It's playing up

I just updated my iMac to Lion 10.7.5 and iCal keeps crashing. iCal is also taking a long time to sync with iCloud for the first time. It's still on 'starting' so I am not sure it's even syncing. Any thoughts/Solutions?

Mmm, a bit stuck for ideas other than checking Calendar>Preferences>Accounts tab and making sure it's enabled in there.
If that doesn't help hopefully someone else may spot this thread and have some ideas. Good luck.

HT204291 Need help with AirPlay on my apple tv it won't AirPlay videos only music

Hi there I'm having a problem with my apple tv I think im trying to AirPlay a video to the apple tv but when do it is ony playing the music and not the video content please help

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Websites and third party Apps need enabling before they will allow AirPlay of Video content. Some Website/App developers have not enabled their products, some simply haven't got around to it yet, others have stated that they won't be enabling AirPlay (likely as a result of licensing issues).

Need help with url for mx:HTTPService

I inherited a Flex project and I do not have much experience with Flex.
I have a mxml file with a HTTPService defined where the url is defined as such
<mx:HTTPService id="domainFetcher" contentType="application/xml" resultFormat="e4x"
        url="{XXX.xxxPrefix}queries.php" method="POST" result="domainResultHandler(event)">
        <mx:request xmlns=""><ListDomainTree/></mx:request>
    </mx:HTTPService>
I cannot determine how {XXX.xxxPrefix} is defined. When I make changes on the target web location I do not see the changes. If I remove the {XXX.xxxPrefix} then I do.
So, it looks like {XXX.xxxPrefix} is pointing to another location that I cannot determine.
I hope someone can help me with how to find out how the value of {XXX.xxxPrefix} is getting set.
Thanks

Use network monitor(it is a feature in Flash builder) to determine the url, also, XXX.xxPrefix? is it a property of the class where this httpservice is defined? I still do not understand what you mean by the following line.. Use debugger to find out whats in the prefix thing. Still your question does not have clarity, may be you should post more code.

Still need help with 2122 error. Apple won't help.

okay, i'm still getting the 2122 error when burning. i'm all out of ideas and apple isn't helping me at all with their "award winning customer support". btw, who gave them that "award"? anyway, this discussion board is pretty much my last hope to get some kind help. any new ideas or solutions to this problem?

Ipod touch will sync with one computer at a time. If you sync to another, it will first erase the content from the ipod, then replace it with content from the new computer.
On Mac, not completely sure about Windows, you can copy the entire itunes folder to the new computer and retain the information.

Need help with tables in dreamweaver

So I can insert a table in dreamweaver but fine tuning it is
a problem.
I cannot find how to access individual cell properties to
apply borders on only the sides of the cells I want. Also I can
configure the width of the columns only by dragging the divider
left and right. It does not allow me to input figures anywhere to
set column widths.

To set the widths in the HTML, look in the properties panel
and find the "cell" area near the bottom left. You can enter a
pixel value there.
To set borders for individual sides you should use CSS. Read
up in the help section about external style sheets. You can also
set your widths there if you like.

Need help with integrating a dreamweaver file and an edge file

Alright so I have been trying to do this for far to long so I am asking for some help this is for a web design class.
I am trying to either import a edge composition to a dreamweaver file or use the publish file from the edge file to make a completed website by adding a css navigation bar from an external css file. I want to have the css menu to the left of the logo. I have tried this numerous times but either the menu doesn't show up and is either behind the edge stage or its not there at all. When I tried it from a fresh html page and imported it from an oam file the images from the stage never showed up and I am unsure how to fix that.
                                                            ^right there.
Here are the files
Dropbox - Archive.zip
Thanks for the help.

I found the z-index for the edge animate code and it was set to 0 and i set the menu div to 40 but nothing happened and it didn't show up. This where i set the menu to a higher value and I'm not sure if this is correct, I also tried it in the css file but that also didn't work.
            <div id='cssmenu' style="z-index:40;">
<ul>
   <li><a href='index.html'>Sell Cards</a>
      <ul>
         <li><a href='#'>Pricing Guide</a></li>
