Need to know how to do a face lift on my site, can anyone help?

I'm brand new to Flash/Adobe/Dreamweaver so I'm reaching out for some help from you guys. I'm an IT admin for an insurance company and they have also made me the webmaster and have been given the task of doing a little face lift on our site. The site is www.altuonline.com if you want to view it first. First, I've downloaded trial versions of Dreamweaver SC4 and have purchased WB 2005 for ASP.net applications. Our site contains some flash and asp.net applications. I have .aspx, .fla/swf files and all will be getting edited. First I thought about making the page load alot faster and expending the borders of the site all the way out almost to the frames of IE, this would be a good first step. If you have time please post some ideas of where I would start off so I can complete this within timely fashion...maybe under 3 months....

Content-wise, loading faster will likely be easier to accomplish if you use Flash only sparingly rather than depending on it to deliver all of your site's content. And avoid use of large images. This will also make it easier to maintain in the future (and it addresses the issues brought up earlier in a simpler manner).
But what do you mean by "expending the borders of the site all the way out almost to the frames of IE"? I do hope you are thinking in terms of the browser's viewport. If so, look into flexible or liquid layouts. Just don't make the common beginner's mistake of thinking about monitor sizes and resolutions. Those are not relevant to Web pages. Also, design your pages with W3C compliance in mind before worrying about how various browser differences - you are going to test in various browsers, right?

For quick layout solutions, you might want to consider some of Project VII's solutions. Quick, customizable, compliant, and great support. Don't let that be an excuse not to learn HTML/CSS, though
And lurk in here for lots of good advice and helpful links even when you don't have a specific question in mind.

So it seems from reading the COMMAND manual that my first issue is that I used a 16GB SD card, and the manual says it will only recogize up to a 2GB SD card. I did use my MB Air's SD card slot and crated a folder and dragged the music files to it, then to the card. So I am going to get a 2GB card and try that next. Otherwise just stick with the iPOD connected. At least that is 8GB

I recently had to install a new hard drive in my computer. This caused me to have to reload all content back to my iTunes and iPod. I have many apps on my iPod and i don't know how to transfer those back to my iTunes. Can anyone help?

Right clicking on your ipod in the device list an d choosing "transfer purchases" will copy apps and bought media from iTunes to your computer. Due to the new iTunes library on your new HD, iTunes will erase your ipod during the first sync. To save your data to the computer take a look at this article about saving data from your device to a computer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
Basically it's backing up manually, transferring her purchases (apps and bought music), letting iTunes erase the ipod due to the new iTunes library, and restoring from the manual backup again, to get all the data and settings back.
Make sure your new computer account is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in itunes, connect your ipod, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
This will save data, pictures and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer.
Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your ipod got wiped during the first sync.
The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.

Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

HT204074 I do not see a "Manage Devices" link when I access my account information through iTunes. I want to know how many devices are linked to my account. Can anyone help?

I have accessed the Apple Support site http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4627 but I could not find the "Manage Devices" link on iTunes. The advice they give is as follows:
You can view which devices or computers are currently associated, remove unused devices or computers, and see how long before they can be associated with a different Apple ID from the Account Information page in iTunes on your computer:
Open iTunes.
Sign in to your Apple ID by choosing Store > Sign In from the iTunes menu.
Choose Store > View My Account from the iTunes menu.
From the Account Information screen, click Manage Devices.
Next to each device or computer name, you will be able to see when each was associated to your Apple ID. You will also be able to track how many days are remaining before your associated devices or computers can be associated to a different Apple ID.
Help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Being new to iBook publishing I need to know if stats are available to determine how many times my iBook has been downloaded. Can anyone help please? I need to persuade someone that this really is worthwhile. Mr Ignorant.

The only people who can possibly assist you with this is Apple Customer Relations, call your local Apple contact number and ask for Customer Relations then explain your situation clearly and politely (be firm but don't rant).
You might want to investiage what the local laws are regarding defective goods and 'fit for use' definitions on warranties etc. Consumer Protection can be a useful tool to use or bargain with if needed ...

I am legally blonde and not very tech savvy, so I don't really know how to do that. I know ur time is valuable, so could u possibly give me a short tutorial? I would b very grateful! I use the camera kit to get my pics from my sd card to my iPad and also from my iPhone to my iPad. Had I known I would have this problem, I would not have transferred my pics to my iPad until after I took the sd card and had my pics printed.

Ask your wireless provider. None of what you describe has to do with the phone itself.

I think you have to sign into your Amazon Kindle Account, find the book in your archive and delete it there. Otherwise you can delete it from the device and leave it in the archive, should you want to look at it again.

HT4539 I have forgotten how to "read" a book that I downloaded. Can anyone help?

I have forgotten how to "read" a book that I downloaded. Can anyone help? Also, how would I download it to my documents for future reading or printing? I am very new to this process.

If it's an ibook that you've downloaded from iTunes then (if you don't already have it installed) you need to download the iBooks app to your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch (an ibook can't be read on a Mac or PC), and you can then either (if you have the book on your computer) sync the book to your device via your computer's iTunes or re-download it directly in the iBooks app on the device (re-downloading).
To sync a book to the iBooks app, connect your device to your computer and select it on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and then use the Books tab on the right-hand side to select and sync the book to the iBooks app.
There is a chapter on the iBooks app in the iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch's manual : http://support.apple.com/manuals/

Edit > Preferences. Select the check box for Ringtones, this will add them to the listing in iTunes.
Not sure that really answers your question though.

No, i don't. if i did i would have tried it. do you have to sign up an appled ID for iCloud? If the answer is yes then they should mention that in the set-up instructions.

I have an IPhone 3; when i checked my messages earlier some had been deleted. Upon looking at the settings i noticed my message settings have changed! I no longer have the option of how long to keep my SMS messages etc. Can anyone help?

The iOS settings for the iPhone 3 never had an option to determine how long you wanted to save messages. That settings is new to iOS8. As far as some being deleted, there is nothing about the phone that should delete messages without some user intervention. Try a reset on the phone, this will not affect your data. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot.
