VNC and WebDAV: Now what?

Hi all,
First, thanks to those that responded to my previous post!
A recap of my dilemma: I want to be able to access my home computer (imac G5) from anywhere. I want to be able to transfer files from my imac to my ibook when I'm on the road so I don't have to keep everything on my ibook (I don't want to have to lug around an external HD). I want to be able to run iTunes on my ibook from anywhere in the country using the songs that are on my imac at home. I want to access my iPhoto libraries in my imac so I can burn CD's of the pictures when I'm out of town using my ibook. I have work-related videos on my imac (this is what's really taking up all of my HD space) that I want access to on the road for when I go to meetings.
My parents always told me I wanted everything!
So I loaded OSXvnc on my imac and Chicken of the VNC on my ibook. This is really neat in that I can control my imac from afar (I also have a dyndns account), but it doesn't really help with the iTunes, iPhoto, or video stuff. So then I set up a webdav folder on my imac (using the terminal was a big step for me). Now I can access this folder from anywhere with my ibook, but that doesn't really help me either.
What do I need to do to accomplish my goals above?
Thanks,
Darren

In order to share your iphoto library, itunes library and videos over the internet you would first of need a connection at your home that has a big fat upload pipe.
For example a standard 128k or 256k upload speed would not cut.
The next thing you would be best doing is setting up SSH. SSH can create secure tunnels between your ibook and your mac. You can run a number of different services over ssh and you only need to upen up port 22 on your router.
how to setup ssh
Once you have ssh setup using public key authentication then to run VNC over ssh fire up your terminal and the command.
ssh -L 5901:127.0.0.01:5900 your.dyndns.org
Setup your vnc server to run on port 5900 and then on your ibook connect your vnc client to
127.0.0.1:5901
Now your vnc server is running over a secure encrypted tunnel.
OK so what next?
you can run afp shares over ssh so you could mount your imac's hard drive on your ibook.
ssh -L 5480:127.0.0.1:548 your.dnydns.org
Then you can mount the sharepoint on our ibook using
afp://127.0.0.1:5480
Then you have access to your tunes photo's and movies.

Sliced up and imported - now what?

Hey guys,
I've been using DreamWeaver for a little while but I really am a novice and really need some help!
I created a page in Photoshop, then sliced it up and imported it into DreamWeaver as a html page - it displayed fine. What I would like to do now though, is turn the centre section of the image into a changing content area - for text and, on one page, a music player.
What would be the best way to do this?
Here's a picture of the page...

Thanks in advance for anything you can offer!

What would be the best way to do this?
Start over. Using your approach probably accounts for 30% of the posts on this forum, and is a totally inappropriate way to produce a *real* web page. The method you have chosen is intended only for rapid prototyping of alternative layout designs, rather than building finished web pages. With such prototyping pages, as soon as you begin to fold in actual content, things start to fly apart in a shocking way.
Your best bet would be to spend a long weekend here - http://www.w3schools - acquiring some HTML and CSS knowledge. Then read this short tutorial - http://www.apptools.com/examples/pagelayout101.php to find out the approach that works best for real web pages, and you can begin to take sliced images from Photoshop/Fireworks and use them in layouts built entirely in DW.

Itunes has stopped working error I have uninstalled and reinstalled now what

Itunes has stopped working error. I have unistalled and reinstalled and this is the first error ever with my ipod/itunes. How can I fix it?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Switching computers, Office version and OS - now what?

The computer I sync'ed my Palm TX with died and stayed dead a month ago.
Been living withoiut sync since.
That computer used XP Pro/Office 2003 and Intellisync
I don't seem to have the install file for Intellisync in backup, but have found it on the web v 5.?
I sync'ed to/from Outlook using intellisync
New computer is Vista/Office 2007
Options appear to be to install intellisync on new computer if Vista will so permit and pray hard.
there is a post on another board that suggests using Palm 4.14E vs. Desktop 6.2 will make this work.
Alternatively, buy KeySuite, don't install intellisync and use that system instead, just ignoring the native contacts/notes/calendar/tasks applications.
(Ah, if this is the way to go, how do I clear the native from the native applications for contacts, etc. ??)
I would be grateful for any/all sage advice. I am (literally) in the middle of nowhere and there are ZERO Palm savvy folks to back me up and I am fairly clueless at this.
THANKS in advance!
Post relates to: Palm TX

No, not necessarily. There are 2 versions of Vista the 32bit and the 64bit.
Typically new laptops have 64bit.
If you have the 64bit version, you can sync via bluetooth. There is one caveat here, if the laptop is a Toshiba with built-in bluetooth, it will not work. We have found the Toshiba bluetooth stack will not work for Bluetooth hotsync. Is your laptop a Toshiba?
Palm desktop 6.2 will work on Vista but we have seen data loss in calendar and contacts while using Palm Desktop. If you are using Outlook, there are no reported data loss issues so you should be OK. Palm desktop 6.2 has the Outlook 2007 conduits installed so all you need to do is select Outlook when installing Palm desktop. You do not need 3rd party software to sync with Outlook unless you have subfolders in the main PIM categories, contacts, calendar, tasks and notes. If you have subfolders you want to sync to, you will need a 3rd party program. Pocket mirror by Chapura has that function, here is a link to the site, http://www.chapura.com/pm_standard.php
There is no information regarding USB drivers for 64bit Vista. You will need to check the support page, downloads, for your device on the Palm website for any updates.
If you want to use a 4.x version of Palm desktop, you will need to install the outlook 2007 conduits from the support page for your TX.
Here is an article regarding setting up the bluetooth hotsync on 64bit Vista.

Bootcamp setup with Mac OS and WinXP; now what to use Ghost to image

We have successfully taken a Mac and setup bootcamp with Mac OS and Windows XP; however, we have another 50 Mac's to deploy. It was our thought we could use Ghost to image the initial system and deploy to all others. However, in our attempts Ghost is only seeing the Mac side.
Has anyone does this? Is there a way to get it to pick it all up? or do we have to manually install all 50 Mac's?

I'm hearing with any of these tools we could image the Mac side, then do bootcamp and manually install WinXP OS/software on each system.
If you use SuperDuper and your target drive is larger than your HD, you can use a block clone which will include everything on your internal drive including XP.

I have just sought to update my lightroom and am now unable to access the develop function and get a note stating that I have reduced functionality what it this about and how do I get my product back

I have just sought to update my lightroom and am now unable to access the develop function and get a note stating that I have reduced functionality what it this about and how do I get my product back

Hi there
I have version 5.7 and every time I opened it I was told that updates are available and to click on the icon to access these. Instead it just took me to the
adobe page with nowhere visible to update. I then sought to download lightroom cc and this is when I could not access the 'develop' section due to reduced
functionality It was apparent that my photos had been put in cc but no way to access them unless I wanted to subscribe.
I have since remedied the problem as my original lightroom 5.7 icon is still available on the desktop and have gone back to that. I do feel that this is a bit
of a rip off and an unnecessary waste of my time though.
Thank you for your prompt reply by the way.

I bought a iphone 4 a few months ago, used from a store .. i had to currently restore and update my phone today due to it saying connect to itunes it wouldnt do anything else so i did other wise, now my phone turns on but wont go past the apple id and the orginal owner still had there apple account in the phone and its asking for that account to actiavte the phone again and not mine , im stuck and dont no what to do i just want my phone to turn on again
please help !
thanks !!!

You have encounter Activation Lock, the antitheft feature of the iPhone. The previous owner did not remove the phone from their account. The phone cannot be used until they do. Return to the store and let them sort this out. It is very unusual for someone to "forget" to disable activation lock, as it is necessary to do so to erase personal information on the phone. So it is quite likely you bought a stolen phone.

Disable your firewall/security software, then try again.

I updated to iTunes 12 and didn't like it. Followed advice to revert to 11.1. Now my iphone won't sync and error message says I need iTunes 11.2 or higher. Apple Download choices didn't have anything between 11.1.5 and 12. What can I do?

Apple Download choices didn't have anything between 11.1.5 and 12. What can I do? Using iTunes 12 is not an option. Many features I used for audiobooks have disappeared.

The version immediately prior to 12 was 11.4.0.18. Here are direct download links from Apple's servers:

Okay so I set up my Time Capsule already and is now backing up 2 of my iMacs. Works great. What I want to know is how to use the TC to directly store files? I want to do this to delete some files but still have them on the TC for future reference..

Okay so I set up my Time Capsule already and is now backing up 2 of my iMacs. Works great. What I want to know is how to use the TC to directly store files? I want to do this to delete some files on iMac 20inch but still have them on the TC for future reference..eg some movies on iTunes. I want to directly save them on the drive so I can delete them from iTunes and gain some storage. (Ps on iMac 20 inch (it's almost full - 320 GB) when I enter time machine, a tab comes up on finder which reads "Time Machine backups" it's able to be ejected like a disc or a connected device. On the iMac 20 inch, I dragged some files onto there as if using it like a hard drive. Is this the correct method? Then I went to my 27inch iMac and saw the "Time Machine Backups" hoping to see the files I dragged from the 20inch iMac. But the files were not there except a folder that said "Backups.backupdb". Can someone help me?

It's not a good idea to use a network disk for both Time Machine backups and other things. By design Time Machine will eventually consume all the space on its output disk, which will then cause problem for your other files. I'd store those other files on an external disk connected to the Time Capsule. The problem with that is that Time Machine will only back up files that are local to your Mac. That means that you'll only have one copy of the files on or attached to your Time Capsule.

I bought an IPAD air from state and the screen is not working correctly and right now i'm in Egypt ,can i send my ipad to service in Egypt and the warranty will work in Egypt or what?

i bought an IPAD air (32 gb wifi only) from USA just one month ago and the screen is not working correctly(picture attached) and right now i'm in Egypt ,can i send my ipad to service in Egypt and the warranty will work in Egypt or what?

Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that fixes it ? You might be able to get warranty service in Egypt for your iPad, but the warranty includes :
IMPORTANT RESTRICTION FOR iPHONE AND iPAD SERVICE.
Apple may restrict warranty service for iPhone and iPad to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the device.
As it's wifi-only you should have a better chance of it being serviced under warranty, but there are no guarantees, it might depend upon the repairer.
