The easiest way to put a YouTube video in iWeb...

Whew! I am so stinkin' proud of myself. Now this tip isn't for you techno gurus out there. This is for the person who is as clueless about half the files on their computer as I am.
I have a blog. I tried to use iWebMore...I've tried iWebEnhancer...etc, etc. I just can't figure out how to import YouTube with those. I've got major iDisk issues that I cannot identify much less resolve.
So here's the tip. A couple weeks ago I downloaded a widget called TubeSock for YouTube videos. I finally opened it up to see what it was and guess what? All you do is copy the url of the video right into Tubesock and "save" it to "video for Mac" and "add to movies folder." Ta-da! So then in iWeb you just insert a movie clip and it's right in there. Drop and drag!
If you download TubeSock for free, then it only records 30 seconds of the video. But registering it for $15 lets you download the entire video. (Some of us will pay anything for easy!)
Let me know if you're as happy about this as I am because I cannot BELIEVE I figured something out on my own!!!
Btw, the url to Tubesock is http://stinkbot.com/Tubesock

Great find Gina. The best thing about using uTube on your site is that it doesn't use up your bandwidth. And I can also tell you that once you figure out how to do one thing with iWeb the rest comes very easy. Hopefully in the next version of iWeb you will be able to add a piece of HTML code right in the site, rather than having to add it post publish. Keep up the good work!
P.S. If your interested in the way to add a uTube video in your iweb site just post your question in here. There are a lot of talented people in this forum willing to share information and ideas.

Whats the easiest way to put a thin line around an image?

Can anyone tell me the easiest way to put a thin line around
an image? I'm also interested in the use of thin lines as part of
the graphic design on a page, how are they generated?
Thanks

Way too complicated. If you want to change the color or style
of the
border, you have to modify the image. With CSS you can
directly change
the line style in a much easier and faster way.

What is the easiest way to put a photo gallery into an existing website?

I am ready to give up. This really can't be this difficult.
Either that or I am the dumbest person in the world. Up until now, I didn't know that I was.
I just want something easy.
I am designing a website using Dreamweaver Cs5.5. I am on a PC with Windows Vista Operating System.
I have an existing website www.metzartonline.com.
On the Gallery page, I want to include a simple photo gallery where I can showcase paintings. I would like a simple (theres that word again) grid that shows the photos as thumbnails. When you click on the thumbnail, it shows the image in a larger size with a small caption.
I've tried using Bridge which was very easy to set up but I'm at a loss on how to integrate that into the webpage. After lots of research, I've come to the conclusion that integrating that into an existing website just insn't that easy to do.
I purchased the Classic Photo Gallery from Flash Development 24 because it was described as "easy to use."
It is not easy to use.
The steb by step guide for one, isn't even written in proper English. I've tried to work with it an I've emailed support several times.
I'm ready to give that up.
I just want to make a simple gallery that I can integrate into an existing website.
Can anyone suggest the easiest program to use?
Please?

You can use Adobe Bridge (it is built into Dreamweaver) and Adobe Fireworks. Once you have Dreamweaver open, go to File and you will see "Browse in Bridge". Adobe Fireworks is a separate program and must be installed to make this work. The instructions below are step by step and I was able to follow them even though I am not overly experienced in Dreamweaver. I created these with Dreamweaver CS4 but the instructions below should work for CS5 as well.
The first address here is to create a photo gallery with the Adobe Output Module which you open in Bridge.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Bridge/3.0/WSCF044571-2772-4d28-9EBD-2C9F46AF008A.html
The second address explains how to incorporate the gallery into a Dreamweaver page.

Here is my wife's website for her art: www.tanglewoodbrushstrokes.com
You may want to look at the galleries there first to see if they are what you are looking for.
There are two disadvantages to these galleries. One is that to add or subract images requires creating a new gallery. The good side is that this can be done fairly quickly once you become accustomed to how they are created. I can do a new one now in a half hour or less. To make it easier, you can go to split screen once you have the new gallery made and substitute the html for the new gallery in place of the old one without recreating your page parameters for the gallery.
Secondly, the galleries created in Fireworks use flash technology so they will not work on Iphones or Ipads. To correct this on my wife's website, I upgraded to CS5.5 in order to use HTML5. I am going through the tutorials for creating HTML5 web pages now. Once I have completed them, I will be re-doing my wife's site. I haven't yet figured out how I will create and install the galleries yet. I have posed a question about albums for HTML5 on this forum. Using HTML5 appears to be more complex than what I have experienced in the past, but we will see.
Hope this helps. Don't get too frustrated when you go through the tutorials above. Take your time and you will be able to figure it out. If I could do it, so can you. I am a 65 year old retiree who only began working with Dreamweaver about three years ago. My work experience was not in the computer field although we bought our first computer, an Apple IIE, in 1980.

I saved my IE favorites from my work computer on a cd-r and want to transfer them to my new Win7 home computer. I have thousands of them in hundreds of folders. What is the easiest way to put them into my new computer? I am using FF 6. Thanks.

Photos taken by and saved to the iPod are included in the backup that iTunes makes evetime you sync or if do a manual or iCloud backup.
Per the following the backup includes:
iTunes: About iOS backups
Camera Roll (Photos, screenshots, images saved, and videos taken. Videos greater than 2 GB are backed up with iOS 4.0 and later.)
Note: For devices without a camera, Camera Roll is called Saved Photos.
Thus if you backed up after the photos were taken yuo can restore an iDevice from that backup

I have around 1,000 photos on my old phone and I want to put them on my new phone without using a backup or iTunes, which would be the easiest way?

I was looking for something on the net, and i run into this post. Am not sure if you have found a soulution or not, anyways, if not here are some programs that i love and they show you every thing in your iPhone:
iFunBox, iBackupBot and DiskAid
am sure they will help you find what you want and then you can just copy them to your computer.
if you use Mac, iPhoto will import everything for you.

What's the easiest way to embed a video into a specific part of an image map?

What's the easiest way to embed a video into a specific part of an image map?
Anybody help? Is there a way to do this in Dreamweaver?

One way would be to create your image map first. Then, use the CSS property position to position the div containing the video player relative to the image map or absolute to the page (depending on how your website layout is).
Then, use an event listener (javascript) to enable the div holding the video player to show only when the specific area on the image map is clicked.

What's the easiest way to pull videos from icloud?

Just did an iOS6 upgrade and need to pull a few videos from iCloud. What is the easiest way to do this?

The only videos in iCloud are ones that you took on your phone and were stored in the camera roll. And those are contained in your iCloud backup and can only be retrieved by restoring your phone to the entire backup. (Unless you mean purchased Movies, which can be redownloaded for free in many countries if permitted by the studio.)

That may be a problem with the VLC plugin. VLC has never worked for me properly on the occasions that I've tried it on Windows and Linux, so I have stop using it. There are usually other plugins or media players available that work better.
What kind of media files are that?
For WMP files you can install the new Windows Media Player plugin you can also try RealPlayer and QuickTime if it is about media that those programs can handle to see if that works better.

What is the easiest way to move my iPhoto library from my macbook to my new mac pro?

What is the easiest way to move my iPhoto library from my macbook to my new mac pro?

Surprisingly easy! Go into the Finder, then into the Photos Library. In there, there will be a file called your iPhoto Library. It holds all your photos, essentially a special type of folder. Using an external hard drive transfer it to the same location on your new Mac. Now, when you boot iPhoto on the new Mac, it will recognise it and you'll see all your photos instantly!
There's a really good video on it here...

What is the easiest way to convert a jpeg into a watermark with CC 2014?

What is the easiest way to convert a jpeg into a watermark with CC 2014?
I signed a paper and uploaded the image to the computer as a jpeg to be turned into a watermark. I'd done it before for a different kind of photography, but have not done it in so long that I cannot remember the steps nor can I find the tutorial video I had watched that taught me how to do it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Adding to what others have said, if you want to repeat the watermark across the image, it's relatively easy:
As JJ said, you want to create an image with a transparent background. You can even use his script. Once you've done all that, click Image > Trim with the "transparent pixels" option and leave all the "trim away" options checked.
Click Edit > Define Pattern to name the pattern.
Open the image you want to apply the watermark to. Create a new blank layer. (ON EDIT: Select the blank layer.)
Click Edit > Fill and use the Pattern option under Contents. Choose the pattern you made earlier. Click OK.
At this point, you can leave it as is or use blending modes and layer opacity to taste. Example:

What is the easiest way to Transfer 32gb music and pics to 64gb micro sd card

Hello, I am on the low end of technology knowledge. I just bought a 64 gb micro card for my razr maxx. Please share with me the easiest way to trnsfer my data from one card to the other.
Also FYI, I just came back from a trip to Italy. Since the JellyBean update my phone has not been able to connect to way to many free wifi spots. I was unable to connect on the cruise ship as well as in at least half the ports visited. Is Verizon or Motorola working on a software fix to help me and many of you with this known issue???
Thank you

Thank you Nick. being able to connect to wifi like everyone else would have enhanced my trip. I was able to connect in some spots but few at best. There is nothing that you can do to help me or many others like me. It is up to Motorola and verizon to work on a software fix. I spent hours and hours trying to get answers and neither company wants to own up to the reality that one of the best phones today is now a mess due to this last Jelly bean update. I have bought a new router for my home and sisters home but can not buy routers for the may places that my phone will not connect. I wish that you could help me. i only had the phone for three weeks before this happened. I get error messages , poor signal, unable to connect.
Do you know of any potential fix being worked on for this known WIFI issue?
I assume that the info you sent about transferring Pics and video is the same for music?
Thank you again for your time and support,
Allan

HT1329 I just downloaded iTunes to a new computer. It's been a while since I used iTunes on my old computer. I don't see any of my playlists on the new computer. What is the easiest way to transfer my playlists without having to recreate each one?

I just downloaded iTunes to a new computer. It's been a while since I used iTunes on my old computer, so the new one has a totally different user interface. I signed on to my account and saw my music but I have no playlists on the new computer. What's the easiest way to replicate or restore my playlists as I had them in the old computer and in my iPod?

OK, thanks for the response. I'm copying it onto a memory stick to transfer it to the new computer. Still have two questions:
1. Since there is already an iTunes folder on the new computer, created when iTunes was downloaded, where exactly do I copy the old folder onto the computer so that iTunes can find it? In the old interface, there used to be a field where one could designate the path to find music and I don't see that in the new interface.
Assuming the above takes care of putting my playlists onto the new computer...
2. How do I add music that is currently stored in a back up file but was not on my old computer's drive? I'm worried that I would have to add these one by one somehow, and there are a lot of songs.
Thanks again.

Fonts - What's the easiest way to do this?

Hi All,
I'm in a situation at the moment where I would like to put the JDK 1.4 fonts into a JDK 1.3 program..
What's the easiest way to do this?

Hi,
perhaps you can get no answer, because it is not clearly said, what you want to do?- From which JDK 1.4 Fonts are you talking of?- What is meant by this?- The Font class or what else?- Do you want to replace one or more .class files of JDK 1.3 by one of JDK 1.4?
In general you are not allowed to replace parts of the packages or subpackages of "java", "javax" or "sun" or add or remove classes to resp. from them - you accepted this terms when you had downloaded the JDK - sure, it is possible, but you are not allowed to do so - it is illegal.

What is the easiest way to wrap photos with text in ps CS4?

What is the easiest way to wrap photos with text in ps CS4?

InDesign handles text much better that either Illustrator or Photoshop.
In InDesign there is more than one way to put a frame around a paragraph:
Select the text frame, go to Object menu - Text Frame Options and set the Inset Spacing to keep the text away from the frame edge.
Then select the text frame with the selection tool (black arrow) check the Fill/Stroke icon at the bottom or the tool box and make sure the Stroke is selected, and choose a Stroke width from the tool bar at the top of the screen.
Or you can do it a quick and dirty way by just drawing another frame and place it on top of the text frame. Give this frame a Stroke and make sure the Fill is set to None.
I selected both frames in this example simply to show that they are two separate frames. The first method (above) only produces one frame.
Your original question was regarding text wrap, the third example shows text wrapping around the photo.
Place or type your text. Place your image and go to the Window menu - Text Wrap. You can set the Offset margins individually to keep the text away from the edge of the image.
For things like this InDesign is definitely the best way to go.
