Putting music on iWeb

I have managed to set up my first page on iWeb, and I placed a piece of my music on it as an MP3 file. This played for me, but when I notified three friends about it:
one with a PC could play it after he had downloaded QuickTime;
one with a PC could not play it, and got a message saying that a plug-in was missing;
one with an iMac could not play it!
Since then I have checked it myself and now I cannot play it either. I have tried publishing the page again, but still no joy.
Help! Nothing too technical, please.

Try posting your question here (if you have iLife '08), or here if you have an earlier version, and be sure you put as many details as you can.
Good luck!

Putting music on Iweb, also where is the counter on my homepage like Imovie

two questions for the wizards..... how do you put music into your Iweb page. I DO see the audio tab (similar to Imovie), I picked the music.... no what (short of putting some ugly tab on the picture page.
2nd questions...... where is the counter on my homepage to keep track of views. I could do it when I published Imovies to the web.... but there is no edit button for the Iweb pages.
thanks is advance

Micahel:
Question #1: In the Media pane where you select audio and then see all the tracks in your iTunes library, select a track and drag onto the page where you want it. You can then add a photo to the area, i.e. like the album cover, or just leave it as it is an in the published page all you'll see is the controller with the play/hold button, etc.
Question #2: You have to add the Hit Counter by going to the Insert->Button menu and selecting Hit Counter.
Do you Twango?

Help putting music on iWeb page

Just a few minutes ago, I made a iWeb page on my Intel-based iMac. I had everything set, including pictures, but I wanted a song for the page. I chose Disturbia by Rihanna. I downloaded it from iTunes. So I click media, and go to audio, and click Disturbia. I drag it onto the page, and it has a little box that says "Drag Image Here" it also have a sort of YouTubish bar with a play button, pause, and all that. I click play, and my song plays. I get a picture, drag it in the box, and hit publish. When I visit my website, all that comes up is the picture, no audio. What should I do?

Putting music on my web pages in iweb

Is there a way to put music on my webpages in iweb without adding it through the "Add Media" option? I was looking for the music to come on automatically, rather than have someone have to click the little player everytime they go to a new page.
As well, does iweb have a page that's designed for comments from viewers? I know there is a page for Blogs but I wanted to add a page in which people could add comments to it, kinda like a virtual guest book.
TIA for all answers/suggestions/comments,
Dale

There are a few methods, they all require post processing of some sorts.
one of the simple method is using (QT) embed tag and insert the tag into you page, see this for details:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61012
or using pseudo AJAX, as I do in my unorthodox method (you will have to wait for the fading, the audio kicks in after), see it here:

the page fading is another unorthodox method that isn't included with iWeb, but it is do-able with current iWeb.

How do I protect audio that I put up with iweb?

How do I protect audio that I put up with iweb? I want them to be able to play it but not download it.
Any advice gratefully received!

It's impossible to do with iWeb.
If anyone says otherwise and suggests something like 'use a Flash player - more info on my ad-filled website' they simply don't know any better.
Just remember that whatever you upload to a website can be downloaded by others. The best deterrent is to only play a small portion of the music file and if you want to sell the song then provide the option for the user to purchase the full version. To enable download purchases and assure that the method can not be circumvented requires some rather involved server side scripting. The typical iWeb user that possesses little-to-no knowledge of web coding may find the limited and costly alternative of using a third party service their best method of delivery.

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

I want to put music onto my partners phone from my Mac computer. The message comes up that her phone is synced with another iTunes library (not in use anymore) and do I want to erase this iPhone and sync with this itunes library.

There is currently no music on her iPhone and all the apps are already in the iTunes library on the mac that I want to sync it to so its not a problem, the apps won't be lost.
My question is are photos and messages and contacts classified as iPhone contents? Because I don't want those to be wiped. So can I sync her phone to this iTunes library? I have not been able to find online whether or not photos and contacts will be lost.
Also her phone is already backed up on this computer because it gets plugged into it all the time we have just not tried to put music onto it yet until now.
Thanks for any help clarifying this

I have been trying to put music I bought on I tunes on my Samsung Note 2 phone but it won't play.I try to convert them to mp3 format so I can play them on my phone but it won't let me convert them because it says they are protected. Can anybody help me?

I have been trying to put music I bought on Itunes on my Samsung Note 2 but my media player won't play m4p files so I tried to convert the files to mp3 but I couldn't, because a message says they are protected files. I then tried downloading different media player apps to see if they would play them but had no success.Can anybody help with a solution to this problem?

First quit iTunes and look in your iTunes folder.
On Windows, the iTunes folder is in your My Music folder.
On Mac, the iTunes folder is in your Music folder.
Follow this path: iTunes > iTunes Media > Music >
Here there should be all your music folders. Open the folders containing the music that is not playing. Right click "get info" (mac) or right click "properties" (windows).
This window will tell you the file type. iTunes will play music in AAC, MP3, and Lossless, etc.
If the files are .wma you will need to convert them into ACC or MP3 format for it to play on an iPod. In iTunes, highlight the tracks that you want to convert, then on the menu bar, Advanced > Create AAC/MP3 version and the tracks will convert. Delete the old files.
If the file extenstion is anything like .exe .txt .rar then you don't have an audio file.

My itunes wont let me put music onto my iphone

My itunes wont let me put music onto my iphone or take music off. Everytime I go to sync it it says I dont have enough space but I clearly have more than enough space left. I also am trying to take music off of my iphone so I can put new music on but everytime this box pops up and I really dont know what to do.

I think you have misunderstood the message you see.
The message states that you need an additional 1.93GB as well as the 3.93GB shown in the capacity bar. So it requires a total of 5.86GB.
There are a couple of things you can try:
Click on the OK button (in that message) and then deselect the media that you wish to remove. Once you have un-ticked the Playlists, or albums or whatever, click on the Sync button again to allow iTunes to Sync. It will then remove the un-ticked items, leaving space to add the 5.86GB that you are trying to add. If you continue to see the same message, but with a smaller additional amount required, then you have not deselected enough items.
Check how much space is being used by the "Other" category (shown in the capacity bar). While there will always be a small amount of Other on an iPod, anything over 1GB is probably not correct. Usually, a Sync will sort this out. If it doesn't then you may have to perform a Restore procedure, but I suggest you use that only as a last resort.

I am trying to move a pdf file onto my iPad2, and it says that the device is not connected or has stopped working. But Windows 7 recognizes the device and I can see my pictures. Same thing happens when I try to put music onto the iPad.

When in iTunes on the computer,my our ipadmshould show under devices.
Click on your ipadmunder devices then go to music at top center of the iTunes window, check what you want to sync for music. You need to set it to a folder if I remember which would have your music in it you want synced.
Same with PDF files.....there should be an option for data or even PDF files at the top center area of iTunes when the iPad is clicked under devices.
If your iPad does not show or you cannot click on it under devices which is in the leftane of iTunes, the iPad is not being seen by the computer.
Try unplugging the USB cord from the laptop then give it a few and see if the computer picks it up.

I want to put all my music onto an external hard drive. But I can't get it to put music on my itunes. The music list is completely empty and so is my IPOD.

I want to put all my music onto an external hard drive. But I can't get it to put music on my itunes. The music list is completely empty and so is my IPOD. How do I do this? I have a PC with Windows.

You say the music is not on the external HD, the music list (iTunes?) is empty, and it is not on the iPOd. Then where is the music you want to move to the external HD?
