Slideshow in iWeb won't work on my server - not .Mac,

My Photos page, created with a template, is giving me a 404 msg. (SlideShow.html not found on this server) whenever I go to click on the SlideShow icon. My site is http://www.theweetman.net.
However, when I run the site from my desktop files, the slideshow works.
Does the site have to be uploaded to a .Mac server to work on-line?
BTW - I used Fetch 5.2 to upload my files, and the SlideShow.html file is where it is supposed to be. Please Help!
Thanks

I took you advice, as given in this thread and now my slideshow works. iWeb has a problem with Verizon servers, with regard to SlideShow.

How did you edit .js?
Give this a try, edit this file:
http://mysite.verizon.net/macericpet/Home/SlideShow_assets/openSlideShowWindow.j s
Open it with text editor, you will find two functions:
function openSlideShow(initialIndex)
function openSlideShow2(initialIndex, language)
You can swap them, rename openSlideShow to openSlideShow2
and rename openSlideShow2 to openSlideShow

Hi jenette,
If you are having issues using an HDTV via HDMI as an external display to your MacBook Air, you may find the following article helpful:
OS X: How to use multiple displays with your Mac in Mountain Lion and earlier
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5019
(Note: You will generally only see the arrangement option in Displays when you are configured to use the external display in Extended Desktop mode; there is no arrangement in Mirroring as both screens are showing the same image.)

My iPhone cannot make or receive calls. I tried installing iTunes order to sync everything and restore, but I am getting 0x ... 084 errors, and it won't work. I do not want to delete all of my contacts. Any advice would be appreciated.

Oh, and I can't hook up my iPhone to iTunes because it's locked with a passcode. I can't begin to type the passcode because of this stupid "Restore Needed - can't send or receive calls" thing. This is beyond silly.

Macbook pro running windows 7 parallel vpn works in windows and not mac

I recently purchased a macbook pro. My medical management software runs in windows. I installed the software on the mac using parallels. If I'm at my home network/office I can access the server/program. When I try to access the vpn outside the network it won't work.

Parallels is supossed to be loaded on Mac OS platform and then you load Windows 7 on Parallels. The VPN is also supposed to be loaded on the Parallels platform. The VPN is not supposed to be on the Mac platform.
If you need to run the VPN on the Mac platform then you have to edit the set up of it because it is not the same as running in Windows. You'll have to ask your IT person about using the VPN on the OS X.

Work around for server not found problems on FF36

I have found a work around for all the people having server not found problems with FF36.
If you manually set your network adapter DNS to an external DNS server (as opposed to your local ISP) then the problem goes away. I set mine to use the two google DNS servers:
Preferred: 8.8.8.8
Alternate: 8.8.4.4
Not a clue why this works but it is 100% successful on my desktop PC, whereas before I could hardly connect to a webpage with FF36 without multiple page refreshes and much frustration, even though FF35 was fine and rolling back to FF35 was also fine.
Something has changed in FF36 and either the way it handles DNS or the way it works with some network adapters.
It is nothing to do with add-ons, profiles or firewall software as I have tried all of these things and only the DNS change made a difference. I even copied over a full working profile and the program files directory for Mozilla from my portable which was having no problems and the problem still existed on the desktop, which is why I started looking at the network adapater since everything else between the working PC and the non working one was identical.
Hopefully this will help the developers to pin down the real cause of the problem and fix it in the next release.

Well done. Thanks for finding that.
That is not only assigned but has an approved patch included in the scheduled Fx36.0.1 release so it should be fixed in few days, watch out for the upgrade.
* Bug 1093983 - DNS resolver should not use 'ANY' to get cached records for TTL <sup>[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1093983#c35 c#35]</sup>
* https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Channels/Meetings/2015-03-03#Schedule_Update
With the bug now fixed it would not really be appropriate to add further comment. I do now see another related bug assigned but not being fast tracked, so if all goes well that will probably land in Firefox 39.
* Bug 1138242 - DNS: Request A and AAAA record types rather than ANY when obtaining TTL on Windows

CS6 Plugin works on windows but not mac

Hi,
We have been developing a plugin for InDesign since CS3 and have recently ported it to CS6 (it was ported to all previous versions too, as they came out).
I followed the porting guide etc. and on windows it compiles and runs just ok - the plugin works correctly.
But when i compiled the same files on our mac machine and put the .indesignPlugin file in th plugins directory i can't see our plugin's context menu.
I can see that it is in fact loaded on startup (when i remove it ID loads 325 extensions, when i put it back - 326), but still it dosen't seem to work...
I initially thought that the versioning was off but our PluginVersion resource relies solemnly on SDKDef.h , i also tried putiing the file in CS5's plugin directory and got an error message that CS6 is required - so the version info is fine i guess.
We are using xCode 3.2.5 (because we have to support Mac OS 10.5 and 10.4) to build on mac and i've never had problems before - it worked on CS4, CS5 and CS5.5.
The changes i made when porting were minor and only in the code - so what has changed? and how come it works on windows but not on mac?
Any input is greatly appreciated, i've already spent days trying to understand this.
Thanks,
Dan.

Hi and thank you for replying.
The resources do get compiled correctly (i assume this because we do get a .indesign file at the end - which means the ODFRC ran ok). they are linked correctly in the mac project (i saw a file that determines the version - it's linked the same way against my win and mac projects and the win version works fine so i guess that's ok too).
the context menu is just another menu on the "menu bar" (don't know how to call it?) - i.e where the "file" and "edit" etc. menus are.
I can't seem to understand how come this works fine under windows but not under mac - they are essentially the same projects linked against the same resources (the difference being iCode vs VC10 projects).
can this be related to the fact we're using xCode 3.2.5?
Thank you.

Snow Leopard won't install because drive is not Mac OS Extended (Journaled)

I cannot install Snow Leopard (from regular Leopard) on my other 21" Intel iMac (not this one) because the hard drive is apparently only Mac OS Extended and NOT Mac OS Extended "(Journaled)".
Is there a fix for this? Everything else on the computer is working fine (and has been for a few years)
I'm not sure how it got that way but a few years ago I used Disk Warrior to correct some problems - maybe I re-imaged the hard rive using Disk Warrior into the wrong format?
Disk Utility confirms that the hard rive is indeed Mac OS Extended (what is the difference with "Journaled" anyway?).
I'm loathe to erase the disk, reformat, and use Time Machine to reload the data (what if the back-up drive is incompatible with the reformatted Mac OS Extended Journaled)? Maybe I can use Disk Warrior to re-image the disk to Mac OS Extended (Journaled)?
Please advise best way to handle this situation.
Thanks!

If you are certain the only problem is that the startup volume is not Mac OS Extended "(Journaled)" you may be able to fix this with Disk Utility: Select the volume in the list, then press command + j or select "Enable Journaling" from Disk Utility's File menu.
However, the reason the Snow Leopard installer may not allow the install is because the drive must be formatted with the *GUID Partition Table* Partition Map Scheme. If you, you will have to reformat the drive. To determine the Partition Map Scheme, select the drive (not the volume name indented below it) in Disk Utility & look at the last line of info in the window.

Started creating a web site using iWeb, signed up for MobileMe trial, now iWeb won't work?

So I started playing around with iWeb and created a web site for my portfolio. I then signed up for a trial of the MobileMe. After I went through the whole setup process for MobileMe...setting up on my iPod Touch, then on my iMac, then syncing all the apps...I back to iWeb to publish my web site to my newly created MobileMe account. Only iWeb was unresponsive. I tried to restart the application. I get as far as the welcome screen with the "Getting Started Video", but there is no iWeb window open behind that. I tried to restart my machine...nothing!
Now I have this MobileMe trial that is ticking away and I can't even use it. Please help, thanks.

Update. After a conversation with Marlon at Apple Support, we have it resolved. As soon as I mentioned that iWeb would launch properly on other profiles, we figured out that it has to be a preference problem. I should have known better, its one of the first things to check. But, I've been away from macs for a little bit, so I'm a little rusty in the troubleshooting dept.
To trash iWeb preferences:
1) Quit iWeb
2) Navigate to:
User Directory --> Library --> Preferences --> com.apple.iWeb.plist
3) Take this file and drag it to your desktop
4) Relaunch iWeb
5) If everything works as it should, you can take the preference file you dragged to your desktop and move it to the recycle bin.
Somewhere in the MobileMe registration and setup process the preferences for iWeb froze up. Trashing the iWeb preferences fixed the problem.
If I come across any issues posting site to MM or posting site updates to MM I will update this thread.

Iweb won't work with youtube

The youtube widget quit working for me. When I paste in the url from my youtube video, it always says the address is not valid. I haven't used the youtube widget in quite a while, but it used to work fine.

I had done all that sort of stuff. I ended up trashing iWeb completely and reinstalling it with my install discs and it now works.
Thanks

Iweb won't work on Safari but WILL work on Firefox!

This is a good one. I just updated my iweb page. It said it was uploaded successful and do I want to visit, announce or 'ok' (you know). Anyway, I said "visit now" and the updates showed up fine. BUT when I typed in my website directly into a URL using Safari, the updates were NOT there! BUT when I typed it in directly using Firefox, the updates were there! HUH?
So to recap, it shows updates from "visit now" and from directly typing in the address into the URL using Firefox....but not using Safari. Anyone know why Safari is such a baby?

which version of safari are you using? In safari 4 it's under the 'safari' menu 'empty cache'. Can't remember where it was in earlier versions! In firefox it's under prefs/network. You should always clear your cache when updating. Browsers remember things so it takes less time to load, but if you update then it might reach for the old info. In fact... I clear my cache a few times a day depending on what sites I am visiting and if I am updating my own sites.
upper vs lower case letters... make sure you type the url exactly as you have named it in iweb. case sensitivity matters. IE: www.yourname.com/page1 vs www.yourname.com/Page1

Java won't work on proxy server!!!!

My company has recently implemented a proxy server. After this, all websites that use java don't work anymore. I have Web Proxy and Web Secure Procy configured correctly but when I enter a Java website I'm asked for user, password and domain, and even with this info the site won't open. Any ideas???

I have the same issue. We have important print production software that depends on Java running in a browser and it has stopped working with 10.5
This means that I cannot deploy 10.5 in a print production environment.
All our web traffic goes through our IIS proxy, and when accessing a Java site I get prompted for an NTLM password. It does not accept any valid passwords, but just re-prompts over and over. The same version of Safari on 10.4.11 works fine with Java as long as all the updates are loaded.
Proxy access in Mac OS X is continually an issue for us, as the current version of Safari cannot access any https sites through our proxy either. I've been forced to install Firefox for users who need access to https sites (which is almost all of them).
We've had issues with our IIS proxy on and off since way back at 10.3 where proxy support would go between working and not working with various patches. This, coupled with the fact that NTLM authentication is much more intrusive on Mac OS (with constant prompting and hassles with the keychain) than on Windows, causes major support headaches for us. I've tried various workarounds with using Authoxy and Squidman, and various keychain settings, but I'd prefer it if the system's built-in IIS proxy support would work better.
It's very frustrating because our IIS proxy has not been significantly changed in over 5 years, but our Macs go from working to not working continually as patches are released. Very poor.
I would love for this to be looked at at Apple, as Mac OS's own proxy panel does not even have as simple an option as "use this proxy server for all protocols" as found in IE on Windows or Firefox on all platforms. This means separate entries in the keychain for all protocols and a huge mess to support.

Spotlight shortcut won't work anymore, Pref Pane not loading properly

Today, without any new installs etc., Spotlight stopped responding to my keyboard shortcut (CTRL+Space), and the Spotlight Search Window won't launch with its shortcut (CTRLALTSpace). If I click on the magnifier, it works.
I tried to go into Spotlight preferences, but the pref pane wouldn't load, getting stuck at Loading Spotlight...
I clicked on another pref pane, then clicked on Show All, then tried SL again, and it loaded, only the bottom 4 categories in the Searth Results tab are all blank: no icon, no description. I unchecked them, checked them again, booted into Safe Mode, repaired permissions, all to no avail.
What's eating my Spotlight? Any tips appreciated.

If I run System Preferences, then click on Spotlight, like I state above, it gets hung on Loading Spotlight...
If at that point I right-click the System Preferences icon in the Dock, then select Spotlight from the pop-up menu (or if I simply click on the Spotlight icon of the Preferences window once more), Spotlight Preferences do load up. Alas, some of the categories in the Search Results are blank. Currently, the only categories showing are: Applications, System Preferences, Documents, Folders, and Mail Messages. Categories underneath these 5 (Nos. 6-14) are all blank lines.
If I attempt to re-order any of the blank ones and bring one of them to the top area of the list, where the categories are showing their names, then exit System Preferences, then open System Preferences once again, then click on Spotlight, then click on Spotlight a second time so it opens, then I see that more categories are now not showing (i.e. their lines are blank, just the category number shows, plus the check box, checked or unchecked).
If, though, I re-order any of the blank lines so that they are moved further down the list, i.e. lower than other blank lines, then exit and reopen Spotlight preferences (with all the click and click again involved), then there are more categories showing their names.
I found out I can follow this 'technique', but I get stopped when I'm left with just one category that's still blank. I can't fiddle with that last one in any way to make it show up its name next time I open System Preferences and manage to load Spotlight.
Oh, and throughout the whole process, however many times I try to set my Spotlight shortcuts at the bottom of the pane, they don't stick: next time I see the pane, they're gone, replaced by two empty fields. Only way to invoke Spotlight is by clicking on the magnifier.
So, anyone still following this bizarre hick-up? And, more importantly, any ideas what I can do to alleviate the problem, short of driving a metal rod through my MacBook Pro's screen?

Old Cinema Display 22" won't work with DVI-ADC adapter & Mac Pro

So, I want to use my old 22" ADC Cinema Display with my new Mac Pro with the Radeon x1900 card.
And I was told to buy the DVI to ADC adapter, which I did.
But it doesn't work! The adapter powers up my monitor, and it shows up in the Display settings of system prefs, but the monitor remains DARK.
Anyone hear of this happening? I spent an hour with Apple Care phone support. They have no idea what to do.
Is the 22" (model #M8149) just not compatible with this adapter? I'd hate to have to buy a whole new monitor!

Yes, I tried re-setting the PRAM as well. Didn't work.
I've gone into the Monitor display settings and clicked "Detect Displays"...I've changed the Hz on the VGA monitor that I have plugged in simultaneously (a Gateway FPD1510). Not working.
As I mentioned, the computer does detect the monitor...it shows up in the Display Arrangement window and I can change its resolution, etc.
And the power light is on.
It's just that the screen in black.
Is this monitor just incompatible with this adapter?
Sounds like someone else is having this issue too, right?

My installation download won't work at all, I have Mac OS X 10.5.8 with an intel procesor, I don't understand why nothing works?

Mozilla identifies the download suitable for my laptop, but then nothing happens when I click on the download button

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
*Firefox 12.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
*Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
*Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

5.1 sound won't work with computer speakers, not sure

Hi, I am having problems getting 5. surround sound to work with my SB Li've! 5. card and Cambridge Soundworks DTT3500 Dolby Digital system. The speaker system works fine, I've tested it with my DVD player through an optical cable hookup. The Dolby Digital light is supposed to light up when its receiving a Dolby Digital 5. signal, and when connected straight to the DVD player via optical cable, it does light up.
But, when connected to my Li've! 5. card, it does not light up. I am using CyberLink PowerDVD which supports 5. sound, and I'm using the Digital DIN port in the back of the speaker system. The cable goes from the orange digital out port on the SB Li've! 5. card to the Digital DIN port on the Cambridge speaker system. The hook up should allow transmission of 5. signal, so maybe something is wrong software side. I might be missing a setting or something, on the player maybe or elsewhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I have been in the computer repair business for over years and work on main frame computers for the government and there are companies that back their products and there are companies that do not. Creative, in my opinion, is not a company that likes to back their hardware or software drivers. I remember in the old Sound Blaster 6 days of DOS and conflicting IRACs and not getting any help with their auto answer service. In my opinion, one of the reasons they have all this software driver issues, is they more than likely use another source to write the software and therefore the software writers do not talk to the hardware developers. Believe me this is very common as I see it all the time with the government contracted computer companies and their special software. What a mess. If? software developers do not talk to their hardware people on known issues then we get the results. Part of the problem is us consumers and our willingness to except anything when it comes to computers. I read of people staying up all night trying to resolve one little issue and will still except a degraded product. Do not think for a second these companies do not know this and use this backwards stupidity to their advantage. I would never give any computer product that much of my time because my time is money as well.
Anyway, why do we all buy Creative? The answer is very simple. If you have ever herd the newest X-Fi sound cards with its 24 bit crystallizer on a motherboard it likes, well there is nothing like it. I have mine (I own this sound card as well) hooked up to a high end stereo and if my wife would let me I could blow out my windows in my study. That is when it is working and not squealing. The problem of course is we must get this wonderful sounding card on a computer it likes to work without squeaking or squawking. Lets face it, Creative is the only game in town when it comes to sound and I love great sound. shellback
