New to DW - advice appreciated.

I am new to using Dreamweaver web design software . I have
developed web sites using FP2003 and coding in HTML/CSS. I have
Macromedia Dreamweaver MX (2002) and it's time to start using the
software. Should I start with all the documentation pdf's for the
initial learning process? Any recommendations for entry-level books
are appreciated. I have searched the internet and found several
books for the MX version (2002) for DW, Flash, etc...
What I would like to accomplish is to create web pages that
function similar to the samples at this web link
http://www.sellfolio.com/?gclid=CP24uYq0gIwCFRHuYAodJQdmxg#
Select “View a Quick Sample” OR one of the
EXPLORE options to select a sample template to view the
process.....
I would appreciate any insight as to how these types of pages
are created with the images and text that slide into the page.
Appreciate all replies and THANKS.

The examples are made with flash.
I had to turn it on in FF to see it :-)
Take care,
Tim

Late 09 MB Pro 13" now on Mountain Lion keeps crashing (spinning wheel) and getting VERY hot. Even Safe Mode slow to work. Managed a back up last night and wondering should I put the original ios disc back in to take it back to SL. Advice appreciated!

Hi
For past year or so my mac book has been getting gradually worse. Spinning wheel, and overheating, last night I had trouble just getting it to start in Safe Mode (been using the on/off button a lot lately!)
Problem may be related to media - iMovie followed by iPhoto are the most likely programs to bring everything to a stop but not always.
I'm not an expert although I did figure out how to re install the operating system from the partition with help from this forum a couple of months ago but it didn't fix the problem.
The iOS is Mountain Lion (via Lion)
I managed to do a back- up last night and now wondering if I should re- install Snow Leopard from the original discs that came with the laptop.
Got a lot of media on there (replaced the 250gb drive with a Samsung 1tb a while back which is less than half full.
Never had to use any of my back-ups before so:
If I re install the original operating system will I be able to be selective in what I put back on later?
and -
Will there be any issues putting a Mountain Lion back-up into a Snow Leopard iOS?
A lot of whats there isn't needed but don't want to lose it completely.
Advice appreciated thanks

Back up all data immediately as your boot drive may be failing.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'GPU|I/O' | tail | open -ef
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Normally the window will be empty. If you get output like this:
kernel[0] <Debug>: disk0s2: I/O error
the boot drive is failing, or there's some other hardware fault in the storage subsystem.
If you get output like this:
kernel[0] <Debug>: ** GPU Debug Info Start **
kernel[0] <Debug>: ** GPU Debug Info End **
there's a fault in the graphics processor or logic board. The two kinds of output are not mutually exclusive, but if you get both, a logic-board fault is likely.

I'm sorry, but your sister, unless she had already turned on the "Find my iPhone" feature and the person who took the phone has not disabled it, is out of luck. She should report the theft to local police authorities, including the serial number of her iPhone. While her experience is unfortunate, there are good reasons why Apple cannot do anything else about it.
I hope she gets her phone back.
Best of luck.

Regarding the internet breech as seen on the news. What advice is Apple giving to its computer, iPad, and phone users?

Regarding the internet breech as seen on the news. What advice is Apple giving to its computer, iPad, and phone users?

That does not affect any OS X client or iOS, and there is no action for you or Apple to take.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. To date, most of these attempts have been pathetic and are easily recognized, but that is likely to change in the future as criminals become more clever.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.

I have a kodak printer hero 5.1, it prints or scans 2 or 3 jobs then loses comms with mac although the wifi light is still on. I tried to uninstall software but when I go to printers folder "no such folder message" . Any advice appreciated.

Log in to the Developer forum. You will find instructions on how to install the lastest beta. Your problem is the beta you have installed has expired. All of them did on October 5; you will find hundreds of threads discussing this. If you have a beta it is assumed that you will continue as a beta tester, so a simple update using iTunes will not work.
If you no longer want to be a beta tester install the GM 7.0.2 by restoring from iTunes using DFU mode.

I have OS X 10.8.5 trying to upgrade. Have downloaded latest OS X Maverick but to install I am prompted for the Admin Password. I don't believe one was ever set up. I have tried my Apple Id Password but not accepted, Advice appreciated.

My system is Mac HD OX S 10.8.5. I want to upgrade 10.9.1 and have downloaded it. However, to install it I am prompted for the Admin Password. I don't believe one was ever set up. I have tried my Apple Id Password but not accepted, Advice appreciated?

If you have 10.8.5 you don't have a PowerPC Mac (PPC). PPC is for pre-2006 Macs. Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac to make sure you have an Intel Mac and that you didn't flip the 5 and 8 in your operating system indication. If you actually have 10.5.8 but you have Intel it gets a lot more complicated to install 10.9.
10.5.8 is the maximum for PowerPC.
10.6 can be upgraded on Intel with this tip:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2455
And it also help you get up to 10.6.6 or 10.6.8 as needed.
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6271
will help someone with 10.5.8 determine if they are ready to jump to 10.7 or later.
If you have 10.8.5, you must install 10.9.0 first (free from the Mac App Store) to get to 10.9.1.
Backup your data:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-1992
and check http://www.roaringapps.com/ and your printer, scanner, and peripheral drivers are compatible with third party vendors before upgrading to 10.9.

I don't know why you can't access it, but if you were a MobileMe subscriber with the free extra storage this has now been removed and your account will have reverted to 5GB.

Email issue with ISP - advice appreciated

We seem to be having a strange issue with email and our ISP.
Using OS-X mail, all patched up and on the latest versions of everything. Every two or three months email stops working with no warning, errors or notification. The ISP says that we have been blocked due to excessive failed password attempts, even though it's been working for two months and no passwords have been changed.
The only way around this is to have the ISP unblock the ipaddress and on the local system delete the ISP certificates from Keychain (login) access, although on one occasion when the ISP was being particularly slow, simply deleting the certificates did the trick.
I'm not getting anywhere with the ISP - I am unable to get past first line support and pre-formatted answers telling me how to reset my passwords and what combination of numbers, letters and characters make up a good password. (Nativespace in case you're wondering!)
Advice appreciated. "Leave Nativespace" is already being considered,
thanks and regards
Simon

Meant to say, the certificates are up to date and haven't expired when the email fails.
My system has several email accounts going through the same server at the ISP - sometimes they all fail, sometimes only one or two.

Where are the actual Aperture files located? Only in the application? I am transitioning to Lightroom and would like to only move some of the files. Advice appreciated. Also anyone know how to transfer in with edits?

Where are the actual Aperture files located? Only in the application? I am transitioning to Lightroom and would like to only move some of the files. Advice appreciated. Also anyone know how to transfer in with edits? Using iMac, OS X, most recent Aperture and Lightroom 5.7 with plugin for Aperture.

Define "the Aperture files".
Read this concise guide.
The files you imported into an Aperture Library can be exported (at any time, and repeatedly) using the command "File ▹ Export ▹ Originals". Your Originals are never altered. What went in is what comes out.
Adjustments and changes to the metadata that you made since creating an Image in Aperture by importing a file are saved to a text file. This file is combined, on-the-fly, with the Original to create the Image that you see in Aperture. There is no file saved to disk that is the full-size Image. Thumbnails are saved, and Previews are saved. These are JPG files, almost always smaller than the Original. They are not substitutes for the Image for the use you have.
When you need a file of an Image to use in another program, you export the Image from Aperture. "Export" means "Make me a file of this Image according to these file specs I'm providing". The way to get files of your adjusted Images is simple: create them by exporting. Specify "Original size", and use a loss-less image-file format (e.g. TIFF 16-bit) if you want to retain as much visual information as possible.
Search the Web for information about transitioning from Aperture to Lightroom. Note that I say "transitioning". You cannot move a database from one format to another without significant changes, and likely some loss of information. Adobe provides a tool and some instructions. I strongly recommend working out the process step-by-step, and then proceeding with first a few Images, then a bushel-ful, and stopping to use the first few, the the bushel-ful, before committing your entire collection to the process.
As always, never use any computer file without having a back-up.
We have seen mixed reports here of the success of the LR tool that creates a LR database from your Aperture database.
If you want to carefully define the process, and test and refine it, use the excellent process-development, analysis, and execution program inShort.
Sadly, there is not and can never be a good, thorough re-positioning of the digital assets in your Aperture Library to become digital assets in a LR database. Just as a metaphor for any user contemplating transitioning to another digital asset manager: that would be like digging up a house in one country, planting it in a hole in another country, and expecting to be able to use the toilet and the sinks, turn on the lights, cook dinner, and sleep soundly.
HTH,
Kirby.

New Mac User Facing Sudden System Slowdowns - Advice Appreciated

I recently purchased a MacPro for video editing, switching from Premiere on my PC.
Everything was working great for the past month, and now suddenly I've been having terrible slowdowns in Final Cut Pro. Shortly after these slowdowns occured (constant dropped frames), I tried to restart the system and received a black screen with messages:
exited abnormally, bad system call;
respawning too quickly; throttling
I restarted, and this time the computer seemed to start up normally, but I'm still experiencing the slow performance and the dropped frames in Final Cut.
I'm fairly adept at solving performance issues in a WinXP environment, but am very new to this.
If someone could give me some troubleshooting info, I'd greatly appreciate it. Could this be a RAM issue? I did purchase extra RAM from a third party to up my total from 1 GB to 3 GB shortly after I purchased the Mac Pro. I'm also using an ATI X1900 graphics card purchased through Apple.
The only thing I have done to the system over the last couple days before this happened was download a couple free plug-ins for Final Cut and connect the Mac to the internet through an ethernet cable coming from the same router that is attached to my PC.
Again, any help, general or specific, would be greatly appreciated.

I use Final Cut Express and I wouldn't have installed the "free" plugins at all. Best advice: remove them and reinstall Final Cut Pro over your current installation of Final Cut Pro. I'm assuming here you are using the latest universal release of FCP.
As far as I know there are no or few universal plugins. And more importantly I know of no "free" universal plugins.

If you have already set up the iPad and activated it - You have to restore from the iCloud backup which entails totally erasing the device and then setting it up again from the iCloud backup.

Can't Boot Up After Software Update -- Advice Appreciated.

Hi all,
I've experienced what seems to be a relatively common problem -- after installing the latest Tiger software update, my machine can't boot up. If I try to log in, it just freezes on the blue background screen. Holding 'shift' to enter Safe Mode just makes the computer shut down. I've tried the advice from Apple listed here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1417
I just got a variety of messages, all of which say effectively the same thing: 'Macintosh HD cannot be repaired.'
What can I do from here, bearing in mind I don't have an install disk. Is there anything I can do without it?
If I were to borrow a friend's Install Disk (they have Leopard), could I delete everything on my computer and re-install Leopard, and have it work? Or will the problems with my iMac carry over to a new installation?
(I suspected something was wrong the morning before my iMac was able to boot -- I was getting 'page in/page out' errors when I tried to extract .rar files, or move large files to an external HD, so thankfully I took the chance to make back-ups of everything).
Any hints or ideas would be unbelievably appreciated -- I'd hate to have to buy a new iMac (for the expense, not because I don't want a new one).

You can erase everything and start over, but you should Zero the Disk first, but also you need an Install Disc, you can buy Sno/10.6 online, for Leo/10.5 you have to call Apple, who may also supply you with a replacement disk for the original if you have your Serial# handy.
For other sources of Tiger/10.4, See Tom's, (Texas Mac Man), great info on where/how to find/get Tiger...
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9755670&#9755670
You might try this a few times to see if you can fix your Disk...
Tough without a Tiger Disk, but try fsck...
To use fsck, you must run it from the command line. Unlike using your mouse to open an application to do something, you'll need to type a text command at the prompt (#) to tell fsck what to do. The Terminal application (/Applications/Utilities) and single-user mode are two examples of command-line interfaces in which you can type such commands. To use fsck:
1. Start up your computer in single-user mode to reach the command line. Hold CMD+s keys down at bootup. Note: If necessary, perform a forced restart as described in the Emergency Troubleshooting Handbook that came with your computer. On desktop computers, you can do this by pressing the reset/interrupt button (if there is one) or holding down the power button for several seconds. On portable computers, simultaneously press the Command-Control-power keys. If your portable computer doesn't restart with this method, you may need to reset the Power Manager.
2. At the command-line prompt, type /sbin/fsck -fy
(space between fsck and -fy important)
3. Press Return. fsck will go through five "phases" and then return information about your disk's use and fragmentation. Once it finishes, it'll display this message if no issue is found: ** The volume (nameofvolume) appears to be OK  If fsck found issues and has altered, repaired, or fixed anything, it will display this message: *** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED ***   Important: If this message appears, repeat the fsck command you typed in step 2 until fsck tells you that your volume appears to be OK (first-pass repairs may uncover additional issues, so this is a normal thing to do).
4. When fsck reports that your volume is OK, type reboot at the prompt and then press Return.

Advice appreciated

Hello,
I made the switch from PC to Mac over the summer. I keep wondeirng why I did not make the switch earlier. I have just purchased a G5 Powermac with Dual 2.0 and 2 Gigs of Ram. In addition I purchased Final Cut Studio. I have very little experience with video editing, but I had the means to purchase these items so I did. My question to all of you, is what would your recommendations be to a new user who is looking into learning how to use Final Cut? I realize I have a very, very, long road ahead of me, and I know the learning curve is going to be steep. Any advice would be much appreciated. I am looking into purchasing the Apple Pro Training Series for FCP 5.
Thank you to you all.

The first thing I did was sit down with a buddy that has Final Cut and have him show me basic editing. Then we worked through a personal project together.
After that, I read (not quite done yet) my manuals.
I suggest you read the quick-start, then jump in. Continue to read the manuals as much as possible, but mainly use them as a first reference. If you run into a question, consult your manuals first. Then, come on here and ask it. There's lots of other tutorial sites that people will post for you to go check out. I also recommend going through the tutorial that came with FCStudio.

AE crashing on startup, GPU update suspected culprit. Any advice appreciated.

So yesterday, after 8 weeks of waiting on my order, I finally welcomed the arrival of my new MacPro. Only 12 GB of RAM (I didn't want to spend megabucks on Apple memory since the computer was already setting me back), 6-core Intel, AMD FirePro D700 GPU, running OSX 10.9.2.
I'm a Creative Cloud member, so one of my first orders of business was downloading After Effects and making sure it was updated.
So far, so good.
However, my System Preferences told me I needed to update my NVIDIA "CUDA" driver. That should have been my first red light--why would I need an NVIDIA driver update for an AMD graphics card? But being overly eager to update everything, I pulled the trigger and downloaded the updated driver. I blame the fact that I'm more of an artist and less of a tech guy.
Now, After Effects crashes instantly upon launch, with the following error:
Right now, all I want is to be able to use After Effects ... but I'll also say that I'm pretty disappointed that this new, flashy computer may not be able to take advantage of the OpenGL capabilites of CS6 because of the brand of the GPU.
Any advice would be hugely appreciated.

First of all, you are working with CC (version 12 of After Effects) - not CS6 (which was version 11).
Secondly, the only thing you're missing out on by not having an NVIDIA GPU is acceleration of the 3d ray-tracing renderer. That's it. And, since CC comes with a free (LIte) version of Cinema 4D, you have a superior option for creating 3d objects anyway. More info about the GPU in AE here. So don't worry about not having an NVIDIA GPU for After Effects. (Although, if you were really planning to use the 3d ray-tracing renderer a lot, I would have assumed you would at least have looked at the tech specs of After Effects before you made a big purchase.)
Anyway, to solve your problems, you will proably need to get rid of the CUDA driver that was installed. Luckily, since it's a new machine you haven't done much with it yet, if you're having trouble with that, you can wipe it and start over.

How know if used Mac is good & safe to buy? Some test? Advice appreciated.

I need to buy a used Mac on a desperate budget. Is there some test I can run? How can I test to maximize my assurance that it will have some life left and is safe from problems?
How can I ensure that there's no bad stuff hidden nn it that may infect it, or perhaps enable the seller to somehow spy on my future use of his former computer?
I see a lot of ads on Craigs from users selling their used Mac's. I'll ask to see that's it running and appears to be Ok, but I'll only have a few minutes.
I have an old iBoook G4 Panther 10.3.9 . I am on a very limmited budget and would like to upgrade to a much better, newer used Mac. I can only spend about $400-500 max. I'm thinking of laptop or a mini, Intel, PC compatible, Leopard.
I'm not asking for advice on how to discern a more credible ad.
Thanks very much..

You're prompt help was much appreciated:
I've never 'booted from a DVD or CD" since I've had this iBook for several years. So I must ask someone a few more Qs about that:
1) How long would this booting take (since I may be on some stranger's hospitality and would feel uncomfortable taking a long time).
2) Would that be messing up, ie: erasing, all the seller's stuff he might still have on his Mac? Wouldn't want to do that until I buy it.
3) If seller doesn't have the Original CD or DVDs: a) where might I obtain one, and/or b) if I can't readily get the original CD is there some other test, online or not, that one could do?
I did find my old mac's "Quick Reference Guide" which said "Perform DIAGNOSTICS: Use the Apple Hardware TEST DISC that comes with many Apple products to diagnose whether an issue is hardware related." I've searched all over but I can't find or remember myself ever getting original CD when I store bot my iBook, so I can't familiarize myself with it. And I'll be testing it on a far newer Mac anyways.
Your previous prompt response was most helpful and appreciated.

New to DW - advice appreciated.
