The sites I make with iWeb don't work well on Windows!

I've made a site with iWeb 08 and it works fine with Safari, and at times with Firefox.
However, it has some "glitches" when you use Internet Explorer on a Windows based computer.
Especially the "Search" button.
Has anyone noticed this? Is there a fix?
I'd like all type of users to view this site, not just Mac users.

IE (especially versions 6 and below) are notoriously non-compliant. There is not much you can do if your visitors are using IE other than place a small warning on your site that says something along the lines of 'Best Viewed in FF or Safari, although strictly speaking this is against accessibility guidelines and not good web design practice.
You could try and incorporate a bespoke Google search into your site as a replacement.
Hope that helps

Is There A Way To Have A Discussion Board On A Site I Make With iWeb?

I was wondering if you could have a discussion board for people to post things on a site I made using iWeb.
If it is possible, how would I do it?
Thanks,
Sam

That's a yes and no answer…
You can find generic discussion boards free on the web. They normally use mySQL and PHP. I don't think you'd be able to host the discussion board directly on your iDisk. It normally needs a bit of help from a friendly ISP to switch on some things at their end.
But, you can host the discussion board on another server and have a link from your iWeb page.
I hope that isn't too techie sounding and helps you. Good luck!

Jtree Node with JComboBox don't work properly in Windows Vista!

Hi people!
i create a Jtree component and create a special node, that is a JPanel with a JLabel + JCombobox!
Only the direct childs of root have this special node.
A can put this work properly in Windows XP, like the picture:

And in Windows Vista the same code appear like this:

Hence, in Vista something append behind the JLabel and show something wyerd!
I can't understant this and if someone can help i appreciate!

HELP! Can I view a site I created with iWeb using a personal domain?

Sorry in advance if this question has already been addressed. I too am sort of a newbie to iWeb. I just purchased a domain name through Google Apps. I would like to create my website through iWeb using the domain name ("www.youngvoters08.com") that I already purchased through Google Apps.
At this point, I'm incredibly confused. Is it possible to type in my domain URL (that I purchased through Google Apps) and have my iWeb website come up? I set up my personal domain through .Mac and I even tried publishing its contents to a folder (that was even more confusing). The personal domain option says it will take up to 48 hours to link to my domain.
All I want for Christmas is to be able to type in "www.youngvoters08.com" and be directed to the site I created on iWeb (as opposed to creating my site through Google Apps). Is this at all possible? And does it require me to be patient for 48 hours?
I'm afraid that the .Mac personal domain option means that I have to have already created a website with another service provider, and it doesn't mean that the personal domain I already purchased ("www.youngvoters08.com") will take me to the website I created through iWeb. I'm also weary that I wasted $10.00 by buying a personal domain through Google Apps, especially if I cannot create the contents of my website through iWeb.
Did that make any sense at all??? (Sorry for the confusion and redundancy:)

If you have both sites on one domain file - that is they both load into iWeb at once - click on the name of site 2 in the sidebar and drag it to the top of the list so that it is now in the #1 position. Now do a "Publish all to .Mac".
Your domain name URL is being directed to the index.html file in the Finder/Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites folder. This file opens the site that is at the top of the list in iWeb or, if you are publishing your sites individually, the last site that you uploaded.

I have recently had to fire my web designer who was using iWeb. Now I'm trying to figure out how to get the site to open in iWeb on my new MacBook Pro. Is there a way?

I have recently had to fire my web designer who was using iWeb. Now I'm trying to figure out how to get the site to open in iWeb on my new MacBook Pro. Is there a way?

Firstly iWeb CAN'T IMPORT any kind of published html code as it has no import facility. You can however add html code, javascript and css by selecting the html snippet and placing it on your page the entering the code in here and clicking on Apply. You DO NOT create a shape as you say - you use the html snippet and place your code in there.
There are not really a lot of ways in which you can write code - if you want to enter small amounts of code, then you would use an ordinary text editor to do this such as Text Edit on a Mac or Text Wrangler. If you want to add code to iWeb like this, then you would either use the html snippet method in iWeb itself or you would have to publish the site to a local folder from iWeb and open the relevant html page with a text editor and add the additional code in this way and then publish. However, if he decided to add the code with a text editor, then you would have to upload the pages directly to the server using an ftp client - if you try to upload the site directly from iWeb, all the extra code will be overwritten.
As for checking whether the site was created using iWeb, all you need do is view the site in Safari and then click on View and then select View Source Code and it will tell you.
Even thoough extra code was added to the site and he might well have done this by publishing to a local folder and adding the code with a text editor, he should still have the domain file for the site too.
Ask again. I'm sure that for adding quick code, most would not want to use programmes such as Dreamweaver, but a simple text editor will suffice. As OT already said, if he claims that he does not have the domain.sites file, then try Flux 4 which is a web design programme and has full import facilities. At least this way, if he just gives you the published version of the site, you have some way of opening it.
You can download a free trial of Flux 4 and you can also purchase the full version from the Mac App Store if you decide you like it.

How to make an ipod classic get off the apple boot logo when the menu an center button still don't work

i tryed to connect my ipod classic to my computer an every time i do it will start flikering an when i conected it to a wall plug it just get stuck on the boot logo it had the the red x but i fix that but now its just stuck on the boot logo i need my ipod please tell me what i need to do pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeee

The big Red X is a sign of iPod undertaker coming, so you only have temporary extension and put it in Comatose state.
Some laptops have only one high power USB 2.0 port, so if it flickers, try the others on your laptop.
However try the following, (bear with me if you have done all these.)
Toggle the hold switch, make sure you don't see the red marking.
Press Menu and Center butoons for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON, then release the buttons.
If the above solve the frozen Apple Logo, then do a Disk Diagnostics, read this earlier post from tt2.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17028567#17028567
Don't worry if yours is Windows, the process apply to the iPod and not the PC.
Good Luck

How can I upload a site I built with Iweb 08 onto iweb 09

Hi,
I built my site on iweb 08 and then upgraded to iweb 09 after fixing a bug.
now my iweb doesnt recognize the pages i built with iweb, and i cant open those pages.
can anyone help me?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the following:
1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
2 - go to your User/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete the contents.
3 - reboot.
4 - launch iWeb and see if the domain file will open.
If that doesn't help continue:
5 - move the domain file from your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
6 - launch iWeb, create a new test site and save.
7 - go to the your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
8 - move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
9 - launch iWeb and try again.

Why the 3G connection with Wind don't work on iPhone 4S (iOS 5.0)??

Because Wind is not an officially supported iPhone carrier and Apple warns that using an iPhone on a non-supported carrier's network may mean that some features may not be available or work at all.

Is it on mute? There is a switch on the side which may be mute or rotation lock. If it locks the rotation, double tap the home button and swipe your finger to the right. You should see volume, brightness, etc... On the far left is a button to mute or lock rotation. Make sure it is not on. If you still can't hear anything, go to settings> general> sounds> ringer and alerts and slide the dot to the right.
Hope this helps!

Configuring the time capsule airport wlan function as "connect to wlan", the time caspule gets a correct IP adress from the other wlans IP range, but does not assign this to the ethernet ports. With Airport Express it worked!

Configuring the time capsule airport wlan function as "connect to wlan", the time capsule gets a correct IP adress from the other wlans IP range, but does not assign this to the ethernet ports. With Airport express it worked, the single Ethernet port got the IP Parameters passed through!
My setup is a Vodafon Esaybox connected to ISP. Time Capsule is not able to extend the wlan of the easybox, neither airport express can do.
Only the option "connect to wlan" is succesful.
With airport express I was able to connect my Sony Bravia TV to the lan via ethernet to stream pictures, the TV set got an IP adress from the easybox.
With the time capsule the easybox dosn't find devices connected to the ethernet ports to submit IP adresses. The TV set get another IP adress (169.xxx.x.x.) in subnet mask 255.255.0.0 and I don not now where from.
My notebook is a MacBook pro.
Any idea????
Thank a lot in advance!

Neverthe less, could there be the chance, that this feature could be implemnented with an firmware update?
That would appear to be a question for Apple to answer. You can make suggestions to Apple here:
Apple - AirPort Extreme - Feedback
If the AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule are configured to "extend a wireless network" they will provide additional wireless coverage....and...the Ethernet ports are enabled in this type of setup.
The "catch" here is that you must have an Apple router providing the network to be extended.

I bought a new keyboard for my iMac (10.5) but the f1,f2,f3, etc. buttons don't work. Rather, f14 is the adjustment for brightness. How do I change it back to normal?

I bought a new keyboard for my iMac (10.5) but the f1,f2,f3, etc. buttons don't work. Rather, f14 is the adjustment for brightness. How do I change it back to normal?

Certain older Macs can't use later version Apple keyboards.
Various aluminum models were compatible with later model
G5 PowerMac and iMac, while the older could only use older
model keyboards. Third party USB keyboards from a variety
of makers other than Apple may work OK.
Be sure the Mac OS X is updated to the last Combo and
then see if there is any other software update is available.
Not sure now (years have gone by) if there was a firmware
update applicable to the older Macs so they could use later
metal keyboards. I'd found several white USB polycarbonate
Apple keyboards to work with most of the last PPC Macs;
and bought spares as available, metal / newer didn't work
with mine. Several white plastic ones can work w/ intelmac.
There were keyboard model numbers (Apple) noted to work
with aluminum PowerMac G5, while others that look other-
wise identical (except number on keyboard) did not work...
Too new, and they weren't supported. Worked w/Intel-Mac.
Good luck & happy computing!

Pushed my site live and my links don't work

I used Godaddy to register my domain. I am also using their DNS settings.
Created the site in Muse and previewed everything before I published... everything worked fine.
However, once I published the site and changed my settings upon prompt in Business Catalyst, only the homepage loads and my links don;t work.
I am only linking to one other page.
I pointed my host name on GoDaddy to 192.150.2.140
I have deleted my site 3 times now and republished. Set my links to lowercase etc.
the site domain is www.taxiadzbyg.com
Any help is much appreciated! I've read so many things, I am completely confused now as of where to start.
Thanks everyone.
