Please let us edit our own posts!

For example, I made a post with a tip for setting default zoom level in safari, and I want to add an addendum to my post for some additional hint to people having trouble implementing my suggestion. But I can't edit my original post. I can only reply at the bottom, which people may not see.
Or I asked for help and want to add additional info to help people help me. Can't do that except by replying, which again people may not see.

Why just 15 minutes?
Because these are high activity forums with many replies posted within minutes of when an original post appears. If people could edit their posts indefinitely, it would lead to chaos, with replies referencing things that no longer were there. If you need to amend or add to a post, it is much easier to follow the discussion if you do it in a followup post.
The time limit also encourages people to review what they write before they post it, rather than treating it as a rough draft. The forums provide for drafts with the 'save now' & automatic save features -- you don't have to post a message until you are satisfied it is in the final form you want others to see.

How can I edit my own post?

Can I edit my own posts? I thought I used to be able to but just sent one and upon sending, realized there was an error. So I tried to edit it but there was not an icon or link to get to my post and make an edit. Am I missing how we do this? I did search this before sending but nothing came up, which seems odd.
thanks for your help.

Hello:
FWIW, Editing posts does work using Safari on an iMac, but, as I recall, it does not on an iPad. I rarely edit from my iPad, so I cannot remember for sure.
By the way, I would like to have one of those sarcasm switches. Sometimes people do not recognize sarcasm!

APPLE FOLKS - Please let us access our photos . . .

like we did before! I'm an educator and my students access the pictures folders for many projects (including PowerPoint, etc.). The way the photo library is locked down now is a hassle and "just one more step" for the kids to pull a picture to the desktop. I'm sorry if people corrupted their libraries (my 5th graders never did) - please don't lock the rest of us out. I don't want my kids' machines to be updated to iLife 08 if this is the way photos will be accessible.
(Sorry - I know there is a way to send a message to Apple, but can't remember how!)
Thanks for reading this message.

Have your students open the the iPhoto library package like this:
Then make an alias of the Originals and/or Modified folders and put them on the Desktop or in their home folder.
You've got to remember that today's 5th graders are smarter than the general population.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Why can't I edit my own post?

not long ago I posted a response in a thread in the iWeb forums. When I was looking at a list of my recent posts, I realized I had made a grammatical error (I was posting in French for the benefit of a francophone user). When I returned to the thread, the "edit" icon was visible on my post, and when I click on "edit," I am sent to a page to edit my post but there is a red warning " You are not allowed to edit this message." Attempts to save the edits are unsuccessful. Any idea what's going on?
For reference, the thread is:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=886748&messageID=4322978#43229 78

Kind words, AxL, thank you.
And no, I take none of this personally. I try to take it as being strictly business and nothing personal, just as Tom Hagen advised Sonny Corleone (and as Sonny later advised Michael).
Like you, I also miss the human touch, the Mac spirit, the sense of community that (in my view) used to pleasantly pervade these boards, and which (again, in my view) has been systematically eroded.
In the final analysis, however, viewing things through the "strictly business, nothing personal" prism is easier said than done -- look where it got Sonny.
Best to all.

Allow user to edit their own Address Book server entry

Hiya.
I'm looking for a way to let users edit their own information in the Address Book Server/Open directory. I've made sure the main group for users is in the AB Read-Write Groups group in WGM.
I've even checked the box in Server Admin that says "Allow users to edit their own contact information", but after adding the account to an address book client and authenticating as a user (For example, myself), I can't edit my own contact info anywhere that will push to the server.
Is there any way to do this?
Thanks!

I like to edit single letter in the pdf file having more then 1000 page, Example "T" in place of "V" in all the 1000 pages in pdf file. Please let me know !

In a PDF you can´t change single letter.
You can only try to convert the PDF document into a Word document.
Now you can search and replace a letter.

Restrict supplier to catalogue edit(upload) own catalogue

Hi,
In catalog content management,catalog manager with standard role /CCM/CATALOG_MANAGER performs all tasks in the system, except for approving new . This role has menus edit and create cataloge etc.
Our Business requirement is to extend this role with catalogue edit(upload) to suppliers .But with this role, all catalogs created are available to
edit catalogue function. We want to restrict supplier to own data/catalogs,that means one should edit/delete own catalog only.
We are stuck in this so expecting some clue or help in this regard.
Thanking you.

Santosh
