Publishing issues are driving me insane!

Ok, I've been using iWeb for about 12 months and I'm just getting so sick and tired of all the issues. Besides taking forever to upload new content i.e "publishing errors", I'm still struggling to understand why when I say "publish to .mac" after only adding one new blog entry that iWeb pretty much goes and uploads all the content again, even stuff from 12 months ago...It's driving me crazy.
Anyone got any ideas on how to speed this up?
Do we know if a new iWeb is being released soon?
Surely Apple can do better than this.
I love my iMac but iWeb/ilife is 99% of the reason I bought it and now it takes way too long to get a simple task done.
Are the new iMac intel users having the same problem? Is iWeb just too resource intensive for the G5?
Help please.

i can give you the g4 perspective.
i almost never get any publishing errors. in fact i can't remember the last time i got one (although i know i have had at least one before). also "publish to mac" makes iweb "rebuild" the majority of the pages i have made, but it only uploads the pages i have changed/added. the rebuilding process does take a while though.
and on my g4 iweb is a resource hog... super resource hog. i'm expecting the new iweb that should come out with the new ilife when the new OS comes out (educated guess, nothing more) will be even more of a resource hog, but a lot of these little quirks and bugs that people are complaining about will be gone with a lot more features added in their place.

  • Album Picks are Driving Me Insane

    Because I haven't upgraded from 3.2.4 or asked others for a workaround, I thought I post here before giving feedback.
    I'm not sure when the application engineers decided that if stacked images are added to an album the stack pick should automatically become an album pick that must be manually removed even after choosing a new stack pick, but it wasn't always this way. Of that I'm sure.
    This is driving me insane because I can't find a way to change the default, and I can't remove the album pick from multiple stacks simultaneously. 
    After I do the work to choose stack picks, I don't need the album to display a different image as the pick. In my workflow, this is a severe hinderance that costs me time and causes me to run the risk of overlooking acceptable images that I've already chosen to display as the pick.  If I need to use the album pick feature, I can make that decision without any help from the application.  The main thing that's kept me with Aperture is that I hate LR's DAM- especially the stack feature.
    Please tell me that this has been addressed in 3.4.  If this is the case, I might just find the time to update my huge library.

    I am still trying to wrap my head around this.  I think we may be seeing different behavior.  When I create a new Album from a selection in a Project that includes Stacks, the Album Pick is set, but it is always the same as the Stack Pick.  Yes?  This, to me, is what I would expect.  (From a computational point-of-view, there is no difference between designating the Stack Pick as the Album Pick, or not designating it, when the rule is that if there is no Album Pick designated, use the Stack Pick.)
    DLScreative wrote:
    ... at the very least, when I choose a new stack pick in the album, it should either replace the album pick or wipe it.
    Why?  The Album pick is a separate, Album-specific designation.  The Album pick is set to the Stack Pick when the Album is created, and remains so until you change one or the other.  You can change either in the Album.  I don't see why changing the Stack Pick in the Album should remove or replace the Album Pick.  If it's the Album Pick you want to change or remove, change it or remove it.  If you want to change the Stack Pick, you can do this either in the Project or in the Album.  But again, the Album Pick and the Stack Pick are independent once the Album is created.
    From a practical point of view, you can put the Album Pick and Stack Pick icons next to each other on the Toolbar (this might be the default) and simply click each if you want to set an Image as both the Album Pick and the Stack Pick.
    ... I should also be able to select all stacks and remove all album picks at once. 
    Agreed.  There should be a way to "reset" Album Picks to the current Stack Picks.
    I spent a good three hours going through and clearing album picks- that I didn't choose to create- one at a time, and I'm still coming across some that I missed.
    How did you remove them? 
    Here is one method:
    - Set the filter to "Stack picks only".  With an Album selected, this will show Album Picks where they exist.
    - Select the first Image with with an Album Pick badge showing, and click "Stacks➞Remove Album Pick".  Go to next Stack ("Stacks➞Next Stack" or whatever keyboard shortcut you have assigned).  At this point, you can either check for the Album Pick badge, and then remove the Album Pick, or you can click "Stacks" and see whether the menu choice is "Remove Album Pick" or "Set Album Pick".  Repeat for each Stack until you get to the last Stack in the Album.
    If you want to make the current Stack Picks the Album Picks, you can do this by creating a new Album from the Project.  Mark all Images in the Album (I use Flags), select the Project, select the marked Images, and create a new Album.  New Albums created from Projects set the Album Pick to be the Stack Pick.  Now you have two Albums containing the same Images.  One has all the old Album Picks.  In the other, the left-most Image in each Stack is both the Stack Pick and the Album Pick.  The result is that you have redesignated the Album Picks to be the Stack Picks.
    DLScreative wrote:
    BTW: The shortcut to add or remove an album pick is command+shift+\  (I've come to know it all too well) It's also available in the Stacks Menu under Make/Clear Album Pick. 
    Yes.  I was trying to differentiate between issuing commands (from a menu or the toolbar or a keyboard shortcut) and effecting a result by moving Images.  Afaik, Album-Pick-making must be done by command.  Stack-Pick-making can be done by moving an Image to the left-most position in a Stack.
    I'm still thinking through your workflow.  That this presents a rock in your stream means something isn't right.

  • Bizarre Reverse Telecine issue is driving me insane

    OK, so I've got this 200G movie in uncompressed 10-bit 4:2:2 to reverse telecine using Compressor 2.3 (my copy of FCS2 isn't here yet, so that isn't the issue). No cadence breaks or other issues AFAICT. This is an actual telecine I'm reverse telecine'ing, btw.
    Since the file doesn't have timecode burn and starts with a black leader, it's hard to get the precise reverse telecine settings by inspection. So I did what I've done in the past - export the first couple of minutes, starting from frame 1, and trial-and-error to get the right settings for the file (in this case, F1-F2, DD).
    After doing that, I apply those settings to the big file, go away for 8 hours (since compressor hogs all the ram, the machine is useless for anything else), and return to find that...
    ...the file didn't reverse telecine properly - some of the frames are interlaced, and not only that, but it's wrong right from the start. Using the exact same settings, the short clip reverses fine, the long clip has interlace, even on the early frames that are the same as the short clip!
    At which point, I'm shaking my head in wonder and then banging it against the wall... it doesn't make any sense whatsoever. I've repeated the whole process twice, with the same results.
    Any words of wisdom. It goes without saying this was dumped on me with a ridiculously tight deadline.
    MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    An update on my progress (hopefully this will help the next person in my situation).
    I have found that dividing the job into smaller chunks (about 10 minutes long, 15-16GB) prevents this bizarre problem from happening; it seems to be a bug that only affects larger reverse telecine jobs.
    With the smaller chunks, I've found that starting the export from FCP with the first of the two interlaced frames in each group of 5 is the easiest way to go, since it's easy to visually identify, and means that for F1-F2 interlaced telecines, the BC setting will always be the one you need to use. I've also been exporting a short (20 sec) clip with the same start point as each chunk as a sanity check, and so far it's all worked well.

  • Fans on and off are driving me insane (MacBook Pro 13, Windows 7 x32)

    I have had this problem for the past three weeks or so. When I am using Windows, the fan will spend half its time on, half off. It never used to be this way and I am not sure what could have pushed it over the edge - I have not installed any new programs or drivers. This also does not happen in Mac OS - and the system is equally warm under both operating systems. I keep reading on other forums that Apple has not done anything to remedy this situation - is that true?

    At this point, if you try installing driver again, try using Driver Sweeper 2.0 from Guru3D to sweep and delete drivers in addition to uninstalling. That can clean things up and help, but I am at a loss and just from reading seems mixed results on MBP as to which ones to use and work or not.
    So do browse through today's posts. Though I am perplexed MacRumors couldn't help - seems mixed and the Mac Pro section sometimes more help than Windows on Mac. Though the MacBook area you tried also?

  • Apple keyboards are driving me insane!!!!

    Ok, I will try to keep this as simple as possible.
    I have a bluetooth keyboard, had for over a year. One day letters ASDFGHJKL stop working for no reason. I try to reset and everything
    else but still no luck.
    I go out and buy a wired keyboard. the top row of keys (they keys like play and fastforward) don't do what they are supposed
    to do, they do different things. So I read that I may need to update my computer as that can cause problems. So I go out and buy
    Snow Leopard and update my computer.
    Still no luck with either keyboard. Im serisouly losing it and want to throw my mac out of the window. Please help me. What can I do?

    Hello:
    If you still want to try to fix your Bluetooth KB, reset the PRAM and SMC.
    I don't quite understand your question regarding the wired KB.  What do the function keys do (F keys) when they are depressed?

  • Flash CC crashes after publishing iOS app + publish settings are not being saved to file

    I have two issues:
    1. Flash CC crashes every time I publish an iOS app
    2. My Publish Settings are not being saved
    1. Flash CC crashes every time I publish an iOS app
    Since yesterday Flash CC keeps crashing right after I publish an iOS app. The app is published correctly though. I tried everything from restarting my MAC, reinstalling Flash, removing the folder "Flash CC 2014" inside Application Support/Adobe. But all this did not work.
    2. My Publish Settings are not being saved
    Since the first day I installed Flash CC, it did not save my publish settings along with the .fla-file. I never had this issue with Flash CS 5.5. This was not a very big issue, but now every time I publish an app and Flash CC crashes I have to fill in all the publish settings manually. Now I'm getting frustrated. Even saving my settings as a preset, storing it inside a folder and importing it again, won't help. Then I will get the message: "Import failed: invalid profile file."
    Can please anyone help me with these issues? It is quite time consuming to continuously enter the settings manually after every crash.
    Thanks!

  • Can't connect using AEBS - driving me insane

    hi, hopefully someone out there can help!!
    i am trying to connect 2 computers to my AEBS. one is a mac mini and wired, the other is an ibook and wireless.
    both of them connect perfectly when i connect them with wires directly into the modem. however when i try and route the connection through the AEBS neither the wired or wireless connection works. this is despite the ibook telling me that it's connected to the internet via airport.
    i've called my ISP and talked to them, they gave me all the relevant settings but it hasn't made any difference. the problem seems to be in the AEBS itself.
    any thoughts? it's driving me insane...

    Hello thecornishman. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Since your Macs are not able to access the Internet either wirelessly or by wire with the AEBSn, try the following, in order, checking for Internet access after each step, until resolved:
    1. If the modem has a reset switch, use it to reset the modem. Wait at least 5-10 minutes for the modem to initialize.
    2. Remove power from the modem. If it has a backup battery, remove this as well. Wait 5-10 minutes. Replace the battery, and add power back to the modem.
    3. Perform a complete power recycle of your network components as follows:
    Modem/Router Power Recycling - Quick
    o Power-off the modem, AEBSn, & computer(s); Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the modem; Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the AEBSn; Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the computer(s)
    If this fails to get the modem to "recognize" the Internet router, then try the "Full" version.
    Modem/Router Power ReCycling - Full
    o Power-off the modem, AEBSn, & computer(s). (Wait at least 30 minutes. If possible, leave the modem off overnight.)
    o Power-on the modem; Wait at least 15 minutes.
    o Power-on the AEBSn; Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the computer(s)
    4. Contact your ISP to have them perform a "modem reset."

  • Publish Issue: mp4 missing 1st PPT slide (Cap 6.0.0.199 on Win7)

    Publish Issue: mp4 missing 1st PPT slide (Cap 6.0.0.199 on Win7)
    First slide, my title slide with audio, is not the the published mp4.
    I can insert a phantom slide into the project, before my title slide, as a work-around, but I shouldn't have to do that.
    Is there something I clicked on or need to click on?
    Thanks!

    First of all, please apply the patch to your version. Captivate 6.0.0.199 had a truckload of issues. Here is the link for the patch.

    How are you inserting the audio? Is it coming from the PPT or did you insert it in Captivate? Is it a slide audio or is it associated with an object?

  • Undead keychain driving me insane!

    Hey everybody.
    So, I'm on a Macbook 2,1 running 10.6.8 and for months now there's been a problem driving me insane.
    I've got a dual-band Airport Extreme station (one network is 2.4GHz b/g and the other is 5GHz n-only) and they're running on different SSIDs.
    Obviously I connect to the 5GHz one and bliss is to be had. The problem, however, is that the other one is in my keychain and is at the top of the priority list and I just cannot delete it.
    Whenever I delete it, it just pops back from nowhere after a while. (Sometimes immediately, sometimes within hours and sometimes after several days)
    I've checked several times to see if I've actually deleted it and whenever I check, it's nowhere to be found. Still I periodically find myself with really slow LAN transfer speeds and invariably when I check my Airport status, I'm connected to the slow network.
    Oh, and before anybody says anything: Keychain sync is (and has always been) disabled.

    Hi Payne, not sure if I can help you with this. Have you tried opening keychain access from the utilities folder? If not do so and open Preferences - First Aid and check 'set login keychain as default'. Your password should be the same as your login password if you need to authorise. I presume you are using Tiger if not you need to post more detail of OS etc.,

    Are the folios published as Public? Are the folios free or retail? If retail, did you create an in-app billing Product ID in Google Play that is an exact match for the published folio? Is the "Title ID" you specified the same account you used to create the folios? Did you turn on Strict Renditions when you built the app?

  • Can anyone tell me if the majority of the wifi issues are due to 10.4.8?

    i.e., have many tested reverting back to .6 or .5 to see if the issue is/was resident then? Is that a possible temporary fix to the issues noted all over this board?
    In case anyone wonders, my issues are similar to most others...BOTH my wifes 2.16 Core Duo and my new 2.33 C2Duo are experiencing the same issues. While at school, she cannot see any of the numerous nearby networks. I JUST got her to switch to a mac, and now this. Her old HP laptop saw about 6 or more wifi's nearby before, and most importantly her schools wifi connection. But now that she is on the mac, nothing. SOMETIMES, and I do mean only rarely a few networks will surface, but then disappear again. I decided to take my 2.33 C2Duo down there and see if the situation was the same with me...it was/is. Every now and then I might see a network or two, but not the shcools.
    This in addition to dropping off my own home wifi over and over again also. I will get a connection and surf away, and then I notice that the airport icon has lost connection. I click the icon and there is my network, avail as ever, so I select it and surf again...same issue with her laptop and my step-fathers 17 inch Core Duo. We all experience the same dropped airport connection. And I can tell you it has nothing to do with idle time or sleeping. I can be surfing along and sometimes if I pause for less than a minute, the connection is lost. Btw, I also just got my step-father to switch, and while in general he is VERY happy, this is a knock-out blow to the saying "It just works." Uhm, nope it doesn't.
    I have tried nearly every "trick" and tech troubleshooting idea I have come across here on the boards...I used to be a Mac tech in CA for about 5 years, working for ABC and Disney, so I think I can count myself amongst the more knowledgable Mac users out there.
    So, to sum up again, can anyone tell me if they are having these issues with a version previous to 10.4.8?
    p.s. BTW, I just saw the release of some EFI updates for the Mac line-up...I will update my wifes machine and let you know if anything gets better, but my 2.33 says that this update is not for this machine/isn't needed...so this EFI update doesn't resolve anything for me.
    Thanks...!
    MacBook Pro • 2.33 • 120GB/5400RPM • 2GB Ram   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   Duo Mac Mini w/2GB Ram, 5g 60gb iPod...

    I had issues in 10.4.7 as well as 10.4.8.
    My problems occurred at the beginning of 10.4.8, then many users brought light to me using WEP, which was not working that great. I changed my connections to WPA2 and my problem has disappeared. If my problem didn't resolve the way it did, I would have mentioned it the next time I visited an apple store.
    The bottom line is that assumptions, complaining, and self diagnostics don't get many people very far and bringing the problem to apple helps them know the incidence of this problem, and helps them develop a reliable solution.
    Though some users have reported the "cold shoulder" when reporting Airport problems to apple... I hope you weren't one of them.

    Would anybody able to tell me the setting to be modified / defined to backward flow of information from EWM to ERP i.e. the goods receipt, goods issue are not being updated back in ECC once the goods receipt and  post goods issue are posted in EWM?
    It would be great help if i get the response as early as possible.
    Chakrapani Das

    Hi Chakrapani,
    You might want to try checking the customization on the SCM part following this path:
    SPRO - Extended Warehouse Management - Interfaces - ERP Integration - General Settings
    Pay special attention on the Check of ERP-EWM Configuration transaction.
    After you have checked these you should probably check the outbound queue monitor (tx SMQ1) from EWM to ERP. You can use the SMQ1 - Outbound queue and SMQ2 - Inbound Queue both in ERP and SCM to check the communication betweene these two systems.
    Also you may want to checkt the SLG1 - Analyse application Log in SCM in order to see if any internal bugs exist.
    All the best,
    Claudiu Maxim
