Password Protect Published iCal on MobileMe

I would like to password protect calendars I publish on MobileMe. Is this possible? If not, it should be.
Thanks.
Mark

I agree -- even a hash would be better than the plain-text, everyone-can-find-it link that the publish option provides.

  • Password protect published Calendar?

    It's a couple of click to publish a calendar to .MAC
    But is there a way to password protect the published page so only authorised people can view it?
    I tried to upload to my own server but cannot accomplish it...

    Hi,
    Don't know if your still trying to do this or not but I managed it using iWeb 08 and .MAC
    The problem with the Apple solution is that you have to give out your .MAC user/password which is far from ideal. If you create a website to hold your calendar(s) using iWeb and give the site a username/password and then publish it to your dotmac account you can then publish your calendars using iCal to a private server (your dotmac account) and users will use the username/password you provided in iWeb NOT your .MAC ones!
    To do the publishing bit in iCal simply select Private Server and type in:
    http://idisk.mac.com/username/Web/Sites/yoursitename
    Make sure you provide your .MAC username and password, this will be used by iCal to access your iDisk but users will use the username/password you provided in iWeb!
    Not sure if it works with previous versions of iWeb, you only need iWeb to set up the site and make it password protected.

  • With Safari, No search results in password protected iWeb site on MobileMe

    Hi,
    I'm publishing my iWeb site to my ME.COM account.
    I have the site password protected as offered in iWeb.
    But when the site is password protected and I'm accessing the site with Safari the search with the search field in the site does not produce any results.
    Only the message:
    "Your search did not produce any results."
    If I use FireFox everything works fine and the search provides the expected results.
    Looks like there is a bug in Safari.
    Thanks and Regards,
    JO

    ok, is working, now.

  • Cannot publish new password protected sites to MobileMe using iWeb

    Recently been getting the familiar iWeb error messages when publishing from iWeb to mobile me:
    "There was an error updating MobileMe"
    "An error occurred while publishing file '/Web/Sites/Sites.rss"
    "Publish error: An unknown error occurred"
    Did all the troubleshooting stuff detailed here - problem persists.
    Today, tho', I've just noticed that these errors *only occur when I'm trying to publish a new password-protected site or trying to apply password-protection to an existing unprotected site*.
    It works just fine when publishing a site which is not password-protected. It is also possible to modify an existing password-protected site without any trouble.
    There's nothing odd about the passwords - all legal characters etc.
    It would be better for me and my users if I could have password protection on my sites. Without passwords, I'm left relying on 'security by obscurity' - not ideal.
    What can I do?

    You could split up your single Domain file into several Domain files each containing a group of sites. You'll have to duplicate (via Finder) the Domain file usually located here:
    ...and then double-click one of the copies to open it in iWeb. Then delete the site(s) you don't need from it. Repeat the process until you have a more manageable group of Domain files each containing several (or just one) site(s). Note that this process is not easily reversible, i.e. merging Domain files. Read more in Chapter 2 here:

    With "many, many sites", this splitting process is not without risk — so before doing anything, don't forget this:

  • How to password protect mobileme gallery after its been published?

    Is there a way to quickly add password protection to a already published set of pics instead re-uploading and choosing to protect it before the initial upload?

    Yes. Just as you can update a MobileMe gallery with additional photos after initial publishing, you can update the settings including password protection.
    Within Aperture, with the gallery "album" up, select the MobileMe popup menu from the tools at the bottom right of the screen. Within that, select "Settings..." Then edit the "Album viewable by:" section accordingly and re-"Publish." No need to re-upload your photos.
    Some gallery/album settings can be modified via browsing into the MobileMe gallery, but to the best of my knowledge password protection cannot be modified there...

  • Publishing iCal calendar to MobileMe

    I would like to share my iCal calendar with my wife only and no one else. If I publish my calendar to MobileMe, does it go to the Public portion of MobileMe or does it go to my private portion where I can password protect it to limit access?

    Ed,
    According to; Publishing a password-protected iCal calendar to iDisk:
    "Using the MobileMe option in iCal to publish a calendar does not require a name and password for users to access your calendar. However, you can also publish private calendars to your iDisk. These calendars require you to type your iDisk name and password and use WebDav authentication."
    "Tip: Keep in mind that the name and password used to subscribe to this calendar is your MobileMe account and password. Do not give out this account and password to other users unless you intend to give the user access to your entire MobileMe account."

  • IPhoto - MobileMe gallery subscription - problem with password-protected

    I am having a peculiar problem with subscribed galleries from MobileMe in iPhoto 08 and iPhoto 09. For galleries that have password-protection enabled, the full URL of the gallery subscription feed is pulled through as the Subscription title instead of the gallery title.
    For example "http://gallery.e.com/ACCOUNT-NAME/XXXXXX/?webdav-method-truthget&depth=infinit y&feedfmt=atom....
    This doesn't occur for public MobileMe galleries. The title of the gallery comes across and the URL of the subscription is hidden.
    Anyone having similar problems? Local Genius Bar couldn't help and assumed it was just a bug, but it doesn't seem to be typical of Apple.
    As an aside, it would also be nice to have these feed subscriptions behave similarly to the way RSS subscriptions work in Mail, with the ability to select how often the feed is queried and indicate the number of new items. This would alert users of changes to feeds.
    Joe

    Upon further research, it appears that this problem occurs when publishing from either iPhoto or Aperture to MobileMe. The problem seems to be when a gallery is published and one chooses not to have the gallery appear on the main gallery page (hidden). It seems to have nothing to do with whether or not one protects the gallery with a password.
    So, Apple, if you are listening, can you provide any information on how to have the title of the gallery come through when subscribing using iPhoto while at the same time not listing the gallery on the main MobileMe gallery page? This seems to be a fixable bug.

  • How to password protect an existing MobileMe gallery folder?

    I have created quite a few large events and published them on MobileMe, and did not think about restricting access to them. Now I want to password protect some of them, but could not find a place in iPhoto where I could change MobileMe gallery properties. Is there a way to do this without deleting and publishing again? Or change access privileges to these galleries in the future?

    While viewing the gallery in iPhoto click on the Setting cog wheel button at the bottom. In the window that comes click on the Advanced button. Now you can hid the gallery from your other galleries and assign a username and password to it.

  • Publish a web-viewable password-protected calendar?

    Is there any way to publish a web-viewable password-protected calendar?
    There is info here about publishing to your iDisk w/ password protection:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61725
    But I need something that doesn't require iCal to access! For instance something that I could access via a web browser on a public computer, and would have to input a password to access.
    Is this possible, or is this a missing functionality?

    Hi UniAce, apparently in one of the recent versions of iCal you can now publish your ICS file (from iCal 'publish' command) onto a private server that is not WebDav... which was the requirement in the past.
    View your iCalendar on the web
    Here is a link to a program called PHP iCalendar that basically uses your ICS file that you've 'published' via iCal and makes it into a viewable HTML calendar.
    My problem with it
    I don't have .Mac and haven't tried it with that, but even though the program works great after a bit of installation (you should be comfortable with HTML editing to use PHP iCalendar, but not necessarily PHP) I could not get iCal to export my ICS file properly – it appeasr to upload properly in iCal, but then the file is 0 bytes on the server which is, in turn, making PHP iCalendar have a problem viewing it.
    How I got around it
    I ended up finding the 'resource' file that had my calendar and setup an automator action that locates that file, copies it to a location on my hard drive, renames it then 'opens' it with a Transmit droplet, which uploads it where I want it.
    Hope this helps, let me know if it's something that may work for you.

  • Password Protect a Publisher Document

    Hi,
    Please can anyone let me know whether it is possible to password protect a Publisher 2007 document.
    Many Thanks.

    So far as I know, we couldn't add the password within Publisher itself, but we can save it in a password protected zip folder.

  • How to password protect a site that is NOT published to .mac?

    Hi There,
    I was wondering if anyone has got a workaround for this in iWeb. I would like to password protect a site but am not publishing it to .mac. Is there a piece of code you can stick into the HTML manually to do this?
    Thanks!
    s

    I am answering my own question! A friend tipped me off — your hosting company may offer password protection. That was the case for me. I went into the site settings and was able to set up a password for the entire site or only certain directories. I hope this helps someone!

  • Using mobileme password protected galleries on iWeb

    I have a bunch of galleries on my mobileme gallery; most of them are visible only by specific users. I would like to use them on a iWeb (password protected) web site but the option Insert-> MobileMe Gallery is only available for public galleries not for password protected ones. Is there any workaround for this?

    You could try embedding a Gallery in your iWeb page — see this old thread:
    ...or you could hyperlink from an iWeb page to a Gallery.

  • Password Protecting a Published Project

    Hello,
    We are using RH7 WebHelp. My department works on RH projects
    for a number of different departments within our company. One
    department (HR) has asked if we can restrict access to their
    materials from the rest of the company once we have published them.
    Their material will obviously have its own URL, but they are
    concerned that others may learn that address and gain access to
    their materials. Is there a way to password protect their project
    or otherwise restrict access to it? Thanks in advance.

    Hi TW
    You need to speak to your web development team. WebHelp
    output is like any other site. Just a collection of HTML pages. So
    they should be able to configure the Web space so only authorized
    individuals could have access.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Link to other published web folder from within password protected iWeb site

    I realise that you cannot password protect an iWeb site if it contains a link to an external page / file. However, I have a complex genealogy site that I had previously published to another site. I directly copied this folder to the iWeb directory alongside the folder for the protected site published from iWeb. I have tried all sorts of link URLs on the protected site page, trying to link to the genealogy index.html file. iWeb refuses to allow password protection or even point correctly to the site.
    Does anyone know how to create a suitable link to a site folder created elsewhere?

    I have a password protected site with a page that has a link to an ordinary homepage.mac.com page, with no problems. Could you provide more details on what is not working for you? Maybe putting your geneology folder in iDisk/Sites and linking to that would help?
