Sites created by multiple users.

OK, here's my problem....I'll try to explain it best I can but please be gentle, I'm not a techie!
I have just purchased iLife '08 and I have created a web site under my login, Published to .mac and all was fine. my son then logs into the computer, creates a web site and publishes to my .mac, all is fine.....except it isn't.....my web site no longer works.
Drilling down through my idisk/web/sites folder I see that in the 'sites' folder, only one of the sites is named. if I log back in and re-publish mine, it kicks my sons out and mine's OK.......
Surely I should be able to publish as many sites as I wish to the sites folder from whichever user I wish......or am I missing something basic here?

LacyK,
You and your son are publishing to the same .Mac account, from two separate accounts on your machine. Should work fine, and did, from 1.1.2. The problem is 2.0 is publishing to a different location on the iDisk, and as you have discovered, the last site published overwrites anything in front of it.
Here's the solution, until Apple fixes it or until we find another way around it:
Publish your site to a folder, and just choose your Desktop as the location. Using Finder, navigate to the directory iWeb is publishing to on the iDisk, following this path:
Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites
Drop the published folder, as it is from iWeb, into the Sites folder on the iDisk. It will upload at about the same speed as a publish action from iWeb, and with no publish errors. You will also get an index.html file published along with the Site folder; no need to do anything with this file as you and your son are both using the same .Mac/username.
When the site folder has finished uploading you can visit your site using the url, web.mac.com/username/nameofyoursite/
This manual upload method will not overwrite the previously published site on your iDisk.

  • Does anyone know how I can edit a site created by another user on my imac?

    Hi,
    We are a family new to our imac. One of us created a site with iweb. Now I want to get to the site and edit it? I don't see the site when I start iweb...Can someone provide an answer and any recommendations on how to set up multiple sites so that we can share editing privileges?
    Thanks!
    imac   Mac OS X (10.4.10)  

    elegantKB,
    Welcome to Apple's Discussions area, and congratulations on your new iMac!
    Here's what you need to know about creating/sharing websites with the iWeb application; iWeb stores everything you create with the app in a single file, called Domain.sites. It lives on the hard drive of the computer that created it here. If you duplicate/copy this file and move it to another Mac using the same version of iWeb, that machine will open it and you will be able to edit the site. If you configure the second machine to publish to the same .Mac account (assuming you are using .Mac), you can not only edit the site, but you can also publish the same from two separate machines.
    You will need to keep track of the latest version of this Domain file if you share it.
    Be careful with this file and back it up often. It contains every single page and/or Site that you create with iWeb.
    See these notes for more details on how to edit and publish the same iWeb site from two separate machines.

  • Restrictions on using multiple user tasks in parallel ?

    Hi there,
    are there any restrictions on creating / managing multiple user tasks sequentially or in parallel in a BPEL process ?
    Sometimes my BPEL engine (OC4J/2.0.11) generates an error about "unregistered object ..." and the BPEL process failes.
    The BPELConsole then is not able to display the process state anymore.
    Thanks,
    Wolfgang

    There should be no restriction on how many task you can run in parallel. The only requirement is to use distinct partnerLinks (the partnerLink is statefull and embedded the correlation information).
    If you are combining flowN and tasks, you can achieve this by using local partnerlink (not supported by the designer but supported by the engine so a local partnerlink can be added to the process using the XML source representation of the BPEL).

  • Merge iweb sites from multiple user accounts on same computer

    With the previous iweb version, my children created their own iweb sites on their own users, but all under my own .mac account. It worked great.
    But now with the new "upgraded" iweb '08, that isn't allowed anymore.
    So, I created a new user on our computer for all of us to use to maintain our multiple iweb accounts on.
    How can I move multiple iweb sites from multiple users on the same computer into one user?

    Each of the user's work in iWeb will be contained in a single file, Domain.sites2, which can be found in this location on the hard drive for each user account. You will need to copy all of these Domain.sites2 files to an external drive, or, at the very least, burn them to a disk to make them transferable from one user account to another. A flash drive also works great for this.
    Once you have made all of these Domain files accessible from the new user account that you created, you will still have a formidable task ahead of you, i.e., publishing separate sites, from separate Domain.sites2 files, to the same .Mac account/directory. In other words, bringing all of these Domain files together for access by a single user account will not solve the problem. You may very well be able to solve the problem with things the way they are, but it will involve some shuffling of Site's files on the iDisk prior to publishing.
    The method I'm going to give you has worked well for me. So far, here in the forums, I've read posts from (2) other users who were also successful. Conversely, I know of at least (3) other users who have been unsuccessful with this approach. I sure hope it works for you.
    Open System Preferences and go to .Mac. Turn syncing off, if it is on, and leave it off.
    Now, in Finder, navigate to the current Site files on your iDisk, following this path:
    Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites/NameOfSiteFolder
    Drag the Site folder that is named for your site, (not the directory Site folder), back one level on the iDisk, into the Web folder. This is where some run into difficulties--you may get an error message that the folder is "in use, and cannot be moved". I have never gotten this message, and am able to move my Site's folders around with no problem on the iDisk.
    If you are successful moving the folder, choose one of your other accounts on your machine, launch iWeb, and Publish all to .Mac. The existing site on the server will not be deleted. Now, go back to the iDisk and move that site folder, (the one you just published), back one level, again, to the root Web directory. Publish your next site, from your next account.
    When you are finished publishing sites, just move the Site folders back to their original location on the iDisk--Web/Sites/SiteFoldersHere. All sites will be accessible from a browser using the web.mac.com/username/nameofsite url.
    It is important to use the Publish all to .Mac command in iWeb. A simple Publish to .Mac command will not put the correct index.html file in place on the server.
    Post back and inform us of your success.

  • When a new site is created can a user name and password be generated for it automatically?

    I have a work request  from a manager that is asking, when a new site is created (via workflow), that a generic user name and password be created just for that site?
    If it is possible I would like for it to be created at the same time as the site be being created or do I need to wait until after the site is created and then trigger a workflow to create the generic  user  account?
    this account is only needed to do one thing.. upload documents to a folder.
    of course there can be multiple  sites being built at one time and would like for this to be auto generated....  and possible be in a  hidden list so I can include the info in a workflow email letting the receiver of the email know that
    they need to use this specific user name and password just for this site.

    Hi SPSAdminTC,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to create sites and grant users permissions on the sites via workflow in SharePoint 2013.
    Users are stored in AD, before you grant site permissions to them, the name and password have existed in AD users and groups. So, you need to add the users into AD before you grant permissions to them.
    In SharePoint 2013 Designer, you can use REST API to create site and assign permissions to users. You can use Send Email action to send email to users and customize the body of the email.
    More information, please take a look at:

    I hope this helps.

  • Can we creat an Apple ID for multiple users?

    I work for a company where we are rolling out iPads in big amounts. The problem is that they all need an Apple ID in the training they get about the iPad they receive because they have to install MobiControl on it.
    It's no problem to let them create an Apple ID at home, but they have to fill in credit card numbers once they connect at work when they try to install apps. That's the problem... Not everyone want's or has credit cards...
    Maybe it's possible to create an Apple ID for multiple users???
    Thanks!

    You may find a better answer in this part of the forum, since it's meant for situations like you're in.
    http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/
    is also info about apple ID's.
    You can make apple ID's without a credit card, you just have to jump through a couple of hoops to do it since the default is that people will always give a credit card. The key to making an ID without a credit card is that you try to download a free app first, then follow the 'make an ID' prompt. That will get you the 'none' option for payment.

  • How i can create multiple users at a time (User Administration) in EP

    Hi
    I need to create multiple users at a time. How can i do that through User Administration in EP.
    Please also tell me about import option in User Administration

    Hi,
    1.  First of all create a master user based on which you can create multiple users.
    2.  when you are done with it  export (by selecting the option at user creation) it.
    3.  you can see some text in a window copy it create  a txt file with it, and add as many users as you want
         by cpoy pasting the text multiple times and making necessary change as per the names etc...
    4. save the txt file.
    5. goto import option you were talking about and import the text file and update it.
    6. As it gets updated you are done with the creation of multiples users.
    If you  get stuck somewhere  feel free to  let me know.
    if  this answer satisfies your need, award points and close the thread.

  • WebTools Creating multiple users for the same User

    I had to make a few changes to a BP in SAP which will synch back into WebTools but now I am getting multiple users for the same contact. For example my user is cspehar_1 now in Webtools there are cspehar_1, cspehar_2, cspehar_3 and so on up to _8.
    This is occuring for several users in webtools.
    What causes this and how do I fix it?
    Thanks,
    Craig Spehar

    Hi Craig,
    There are two ways to cause this that I am aware of:
    1.  Change the "Business Partner Synch Contacts Field" setting after the initial synch.
    2.  Change the Web UserID on the BP contact in B1 (OCPR.U_PRX_SID).
    After that, update the user in WT  and synch. (might also happen if  you update the BP in B1)
    Since the synch is using the OCPR.U_PRX_SID to identify the contact, it will not be able to find it in B1 if the U_PRX_SID has changed.  When it does not find it, it assumes it needs to be created.  This results in a duplicate.
    The solution is to reset the U_PRX_SID back to what it was or set the synch contact field back to what it was.
    Then delete the last created duplicate contact from B1.
    There may be further data corruption issues here.  If orders/quotes/opportunities or other dependant data has synchronized referencing the duplicate user, these data will need to be correct as well.
    FYI, whatever caused this was probably at the root of your order problem as well.

  • I have an iMac with 2 internal drives and set-up with multiple user accounts.  How do I create a path to store data files on my second drive within an application?

    I have an iMac with 2 internal drives and a multiple user account set-up.  Hw do I create a path to store data files on the second drive within an application?

    This is the Mac mini forum not the iMac forum however...
    Applications written for average users like Photoshop, Word, i.e. GUI based applications provide a 'Save' dialog box which while allow selecting second drives or any drive. The dialob box initially shown might be in the simple mode but you just need to click on the triangle to show the full set of options. You should then see the different drive names amongst other options.
    If your referring to an application your writing yourself then you need to build a pathname. This can be in one of two styles depending on the programming system your using. This could be a POSIX style path or a Mac style path.
    POSIX = /Volumes/volname/foldername
    Mac style = Volname:foldername:

  • Multiple users password for some pages on iWeb site?

    Hi guys,
    I've been checking out this topic here on AD, but not really happy with what I found. Is there anybody out here who could help me with a multiple users password html code??? I want a "members only" link on the homepage linked to a page where people have to enter username and password and then go to a special "homepage" where they can click to different PDF files. It doesn't sound that hard, but again, I don't like the html codes I found so far. Hope there is someone out here who knows something nice.
    Thanks!!
    Marc : )

    Marc ~ You may have to +"think different"+ to integrate the following suggestion into your iWeb site, but take a look at: http://drop.io/about
    Here's an example: http://drop.io/alancito
    ...the password there is: guest1
    You'll find a downloadable PDF document at the bottom of that page and note that drop.io didn't require an email address, name or personal registration to set up the above “drop”.

  • How can I create a folders of apps for multiple users?

    I use several iPads with my students and would like to set up a folder for each student. I want to place "an alias" of each app the student uses in their folder. On my Mac, I can "make alias" and place aliases in seperate folders. How can I do that on my iPad? Thanks!

    You can drag one app on top of another and make a folder. However the limit to this is, for your situation, there can be no sharing of apps....the app Fred can only be in one folder because it's only on the device once.  (so it may not work for what you need)
    and I cannot recall if you can edit the name of the folder.
    Unfortunately, for situations like yours, the iPad was created to be a single user device, so there's really not support for multiple users or multiple levels of access.

  • Is there any way to create multiple users in a single shot in oracle db

    Hello Nunhum,
    I guess this was not my question.. This is not what I m asking.. I know there is not a single sql statement in oracle ,which could create multiusers alike UNIX/LINUX(OS LEVEL), Whatever you have written..is simple creating them one by one.
    What I am expecting is to have PL/SQL statement which could help us in this regard.

  • F110 issue with multiple users - unable to create DME output

    Hi
    I have an issue, when i have multiple users executing F110 using the payment programs for DME output. program SAPPAYM that when a user tries to create DME output, that nothing is created.
    it is as if the first person who creates a payment proposal then blocks the subsequent users from creating output.
    we have found that the only way around this issue is to get one user executing a payment run at a time.
    Only by getting all the other suers off the system and deleting any payment proposals can we produce the output.
    any ideas??

  • How to create a new role : Need to send notifications to multiple users.

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement where in I need to send notifications to multiple users
    and no. of users in the list is not fixed.i.e. this builds up dynamically.
    Kindly let me know how do I achieve this.
    Also wanted to know where form the Workflow roles get created i.e. who inserts data into wf_roles and wf_user_roles tables. Is there any UI to create roles and associate users with them.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Yes - by default all responsibilities are defined as roles in the Workflow directory. You just need to identify the role that corresponds to the responsibility (look at ORIG_SYSTEM and ORIG_SYSTEM_ID columns, IIRC) and then send the notification to the role.
