What happens to our hosted websites when mobile me goes away?

I created my website using IWeb and it is hosted by Mobile Me. I keep hearing that Mobile Me is going away, everything is going to the cloud and 'we' with websites made with IWEB have to find somewhere else to host them. Is that true? and if so, I know I am not the only person who built a website using IWEB. What do 'we' do or another way, where do our websites go?

Yes, all this is true and you will not be able to use MobileMe to host your site after June this year and iCloud WILL NOT provide any type of website hosting.
If you still want to keep your website, all you will need to do is look for a new host and you will probably also have to register a domain name if you have not already.
There are many companies out there that both register domain names and offer hosting - take a look at http://www.hostexcellence.com and http://www.godaddy.com for starters and see if they have any suitable packages.
Then all you do is upload yoru site from iWeb there rather than MobileMe.
It could not really be any simpler.

WHATS GONNA HAPPEN WITH IWEB NEXT YEAR WHEN MOBILE ME CHANGE TO ICLOUD?

WHATS GONNA HAPPEN WITH IWEB NEXT YEAR WHEN MOBILE ME CHANGE TO ICLOUD?

Don't use all caps. It's tantamount to shouting and more difficult to read.
It is now confirmed that iWeb, and iDVD, has been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. However, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
◼ MobileMe Gallery
All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken. If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows. Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.

However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone. How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
It now appears that the iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on. However, the iLife 11 boxed version that is still available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD. Those two apps were listed in small, gray text on the iLife 11 box that I bought.
Personally, if I didn't already have a copy I would purchase one to have it for reinstallation purposes if ever needed.

What happens to iweb-built site when I upgrade from Leopard (10.5.8) to Snow Leopard (10.6.3), and subsequently upgrade to 10.6.8 or even 10.7? Will fonts stay the same? Will layout change? Or anything else change? Thanks

What happens to iweb-build site when I upgrade from Leopard (10.5.8) to Snow Leopard (10.6.3) and subsequently update that to 10.6.8 or even to 10.7? Evidently iweb has been discontinued. I have version 3.0.3 of iweb now but understand that there's been an update for OS 10.6 so same question goes for this update.
Will fonts change? Will layout change? Will widgets still work? Links? Will Google Analytics PlugIn still work?
(Since MobileMe is disappearing, I now save iweb site to local folder on my computer, then upload it to GoDaddy using Cyberduck. I run Google Analytics plug in on folder before its uploaded.)
My computer, MacBook Pro came with iweb, which has been updated to 3.0.3. Since iweb is discontinued, will upgrade of operating system just ignore iweb so that iweb will run the same as before? Or will it wipe it out? Or change how it currently works (questions above).
Thanks

Who will host websites when apple no longer supports this in iweb

Who will host websites when apple no longer supports this in iweb?

Has any one tried 1&1 Internet Linux hosting package?
https://order.1and1.co.uk/Hosting;?linkType=&linkOrigin=&linkid=hd.tab.hosting.p ackageselection
They fully support Mac users – I should be able to upload the files from iWeb and use the files on their Linux hosting package. Past experience is Sales; Info and Tech support teams at 1&1 are always very prompt and helpful. Just wanted second opinion before committing.
I gather 1&1 Internet also support Adobe Muse hosting.

If I merge libraries and then back the merged libraries up onto an external drive or DVD, do I just back up the libraries themselves, or do I also back up the original files?
If you're running a Managed Library, then backing up the Library also backs up the original files.
I ask because my HDD is getting pretty full. I want to reduce the amount of stuff on it, and the iPhoto libraries are the biggest single consumer of space at the moment (Nearly 100GB).
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
Regards
TD
P.s. If you're running a Managed library, then it's the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing
If you're running a Referenced Library, then you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced and iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing.

What happens to dynamically declared variables when I'm not using them?

Hello, I'm making a game using Flash Pro cc. But I wonder what happens to aTile, which is dynamically declared MovieClip variable through a loop. And each aTile gets the 2 EventListener's.
for(var i:Number=0; i<pVector.length;i++){
    var aTile:ATile=new ATile();
    aTile.x=pVector[i].x;
    aTile.y=pVector[i].y;
    aTile.gotoAndStop(Math.ceil(Math.random()*Color));
    nVector.push(aTile);
    Spr.addChild(aTile);
    aTile.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,Clicked,false,0,true);
    aTile.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, stop,false,0,true);
     // the current function ends here. what happens to aTile now ?? Is it going to be garbage collected? By the way, this piece of code runs whenever a player starts a new level of my game. And I don't make use of the aTile variable in other functions. I use only the nVector variable. And does declaring a dynamic variable in a loop mean a multiple of them are created? For example, if I loop the piece of code above 5 times, does it mean 5 aTile variables are created? Or each time you declare
var aTile:ATile=new ATile(); again, does it replace the 'old' aTile with the 'new' aTile and therefore only 1 aTile exists after the loop????

I feel there is a gap in understanding of using variables by reference vs. by value. You should look it up.
1. new instructs Flash to create a distinct instance that per se has absolutely nothing to do with aTile variable.
2. REFERENCE to this new instance is assigned to variable aTile. aTile var is a temporary pointer to instance.
3. It does not replace old tile - it replaces reference.
4. If reference to the instance is not stored elsewhere - upon exiting of function this instance will be gced.
5. By creating another reference to the instance you prevent it from GC. One of the ways you preserve instance is by adding it to display list when using addChild.
You can look at this this way (it is a lame example but still it illustrates parts of the concept)
Say you have
1. basket;
2. basket is small and can hold only one apple;
3. table;
4. an apple;
5. apple can be placed into the basket or table;
6. dog who love apples.
7. Dog is trained not to take apples from baskets but table but is free to eat apples that are on the ground.
So, once apple is in the basket or on the table - it is safe.
If you move these entities into the realm of AS3, basket and table become declared variables, apple an instance and dog garbage collector.
What this example demonstrates is that apple exists independently of basket or table. You can put apple to the basket OR on the table OR you can put apple into basket and place basket onto the table.
1. Find apple instance (if you know whether apple is in the basket, on the table or in the basket on the table)
2. Prevent dog from eating apple.
3. Allow dog to eat it (destroy it when garbage collector kicks in) by assuring that apple is in neither basket or on the table.

I wish to recycle a number of macs. What happens to the hard drive when sent to Simms? Do I need to dismount them?

I wish to recycle a number of macs. What happens to the hard drive when sent to Simms? Do I need to dismount them?

Hard drives don't die then come back to life. Your drive never died. You just thought it did.
Obviously, if a hard drive isn't on and spinning its life is longer than when it is always on and spinning. If a hard drive in a laptop is idle it goes to sleep. That's normal because it prolongs battery life. Of course it hardly matters if the computer is running on AC power. The drive may still go to sleep but there's no impact on the battery.
If the computer is in use 24/7 then its useful life will be less than if it's in use only 12/7 or 8/7. This is both logical and obvious. But in the long run all computers or their hard drives fail. There is little you can do to prevent that. They are meant to be used. If your life is dependent on the computer being usable, then buy another one as a spare. Or at the very least buy a backup drive, keep the computer backed up, then you can worry less about drive failure.

HT2515 What happens if our video chat is not connecting with the other person?

What happens if our video chat is not connecting with the other person?

Hi,
Not really enough info to help constructively.
Which Version of iChat ?
Is it iChat to iChat or iChat to Messages (i.e Mac to Mac) or AIM (iChat) to PC AIM (needs to be a compatible version)
Is this AIM to AIM (Includes AIM valid Screen Names from certain Apple IDs) ?
Is it Jabber to Jabber (this can only be done Mac to Mac in Messages and/or iChat) ?
Do you get any failure message ?
In the Video Menu > Connection Doctor > Errors tab do you get any info ?
NOTES
As mentioned it is iChat to iChat or iChat to AIM on a PC if the PC has a compatible version (which is not the latest) (where it lists iChat it also means Messages in Mountain Lion)
It has to be either AIM to AIM IDs or Jabber to Jabber IDs
It cannot be Jabber to some GoogleTalk Web Browser Login (or Facebook)
It cannot be Jabber/Google Talk to the PC app called GoogleTalk
Google released an PC only App that will use Jabber protocols for Video (Called Jingle)
Their web Browser Plug-in also uses Jingle for Video and Audio chat but iChat and Messages use SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) to connect. The two are not compatible.
Facebook also run a Jabber server and have apparently released their Own Plug-in which can cause problems of it's own on a Mac.
However you also cannot video to a Web Browser Login on Mac or PC
If this is iChat 6 it does not Video on the Yahoo Accounts (that is Text Only)
This means it cannot Video to any version of Yahoo on Mac or PC or any Web Browser method.

What happens to connection to oracle when process exit

Hi,
What happens to open oracle connections when a process exit without closing them ?

The process monitor (PMON) performs process recovery when a user process fails. PMON is responsible for cleaning up the database buffer cache and freeing resources that the user process was using. For example, it resets the status of the active transaction table, releases locks, and removes the process ID from the list of active processes.
PMON periodically checks the status of dispatcher and server processes, and restarts any that have stopped running (but not any that Oracle has terminated intentionally). PMON also registers information about the instance and dispatcher processes with the network listener.
Like SMON, PMON checks regularly to see whether it is needed and can be called if another process detects the need for it.

With Mobile.me going away soon, where will I be able to upload my iWeb pages. iCloud?

Where will iWeb upload to after Mobile.Me goes away? As a high school English teacher, I have developed thousand(s) of highly interactive pages of tutorials, tests, keys, lesson plans, etc., that my advanced and learning challenged students have come to rely on. The last thing I want to do is develop these pages even more without first knowing what will become of my work: thousands of hours of work. Uploading to a non-Apple FTP is an option, but then the webpages lose password protection, blogging capabilities etc. I need an Apple solution...which is what I have always relied on for over 25 years. Using Google.docs would be like retuning to the Stone Age. Any viable solutions? I have talked with the Apple Help center folks, but they have no answers to date. Thanks.

I don't think so. Steve replied to an email saying that we would have to look elsewhere for hosting our sites.
You can use a 3rd party server and retain password protection on a site or page by page basis.
For what it's worth I signed up with HostExcellence several days ago with their Ultimate Business plan at $8/mo. That's a wee bit less than MMe was but with that I get 3 free domain names , unlimited space and bandwidth, email addresses, subdomains and 24/7 ear-to-ear excellent customer support.
Within a few hours I had my Demo and tutorial sites moved and up and running. Pretty simple actually. I used Transmit to open my new server and my iDisk so I could drag and drop from the iDisk onto the HE server. Just like copying from one of my hard drives to another.
Each of the domain names can have an email address and several alias.
As far as a hit counter you'll need a 3rd party one. I use StatCounter and that gives me so much more than just visitor counts. It gives me their location, what site the visitor came from, what browser used, what system the visitor was running and lots more. I've written a tutorial on how to install it: #13 - Adding a StatCounter as an HTML Snippet.
For many of my sites I've put them in my primary domain name account, oldtoad.net. So the URL to my Demo_1 site would be oldtoad.net/Demo_1. Same for my Toads Cellar website folder. Copied it into the oldtoad.net directory and the URL for the cellar became oldtoad.net/ToadsCellar, short and sweet.
I had been contemplating this move for quite a while now and the latest round of events and help from longtime HE user and friend, Roddy McKay, got me off my duff and started. Now I wish I had made the move earlier.
Publishing to HE is no different that to MMe. You can either publish directly with iWeb or to a folder on your hard drive and then use a 3rd party FTP client from there. Since I optimize my sites with Website Maestro I publish to a folder and let WSM optimize and upload to the server.
Since we have a year before MMe is history one can take time to move to the new server and get things straightened away before going live with the new sites.

What happened to our web services after upgrading to 701?

Hi,
We started using web services on a 700 server. Looks something like this.
SAP_ABA     700     0018     SAPKA70018     Cross-Application Component
SAP_BASIS     700     0018     SAPKB70018     SAP Basis Component
PI_BASIS     2005_1_700     0018     SAPKIPYJ7I     PI_BASIS 2005_1_700
We could create a proxy in vb.net and call our SAP web services like this:
        Dim ws As New sapserver.webservice1
        Dim input As New sapserver.ZGetuname
        Dim output As New sapserver.ZGetunameResponse
        out2 = ws.ZGetuname(input)
After upgrading to nw ep 7.1, which looks like this.
SAP_ABA     701     0007     SAPKA70107     Cross-Application Component
SAP_BASIS     701     0007     SAPKB70107     SAP Basis Component
PI_BASIS     701     0007     SAPK-70107INPIBASIS     Basis Plug-In
We no longer get the same input and ouput classes generated for us when consuming the service. It looks like it is now expected to be called like a function    ws.ZGetuname( param 1, param 2).
We would like to be able to generate the proxy the same way as before. Any ideas?
Thanks.

What happened to the file numbers after switching to Photos. It would be nice to still have the file numbers show.
You mean, the filename with the number on the card?
Photos does not use the filenames as a title, when displaying the thumbnails. The filename will only show in the Info panel.
Copy the filenames to the title field in the Info panel and then enable "Metadata" in the View menu.
I wrote a script to copy the filenames automatically to the title field, see:

What happens on iCloud (ex. contacts) when multiple family members use the same Apple ID?

What happens on iCloud when multiple family members use the same Apple ID? For example if we all choose to use iCloud for contacts, are they all merged together? We use the same Apple ID so we can use find my iPhone to keep track of the whole family.

Of course if you are both connected to the same iCloud account you have the same contacts - what did you expect?. The contacts live on the server and are read from there by the devices; so as you've both managed to sync your contacts up to iCloud they are now inextricably mixed. You can only delete your contacts by deleting individual ones, and doing that will delete them from your phone as well.
You can only unravel this by
1. In the iCloud contacts page at http://icloud.com, select all the contacts, click on the cogwheel icon at bottom left and choose 'Export vCard'.
2. Sign out of System Preferences>iCloud
3. Create a new Apple ID and open a new iCloud account with it for your own use.
4. Import the vCard back into the iCloud contacts page.
5. Go to http://icloud.com and sign in with the original ID. This is now his ID. Work through the contacts individually deleting the ones you don't want him to have. When done sign out and advise him to change his password.
6. Go to the new iCloud account and delete his contacts individually.
Of course if you have also been syncing calendars and using the same email address there are problems with doing this.

What happens to shared folders/mail when I disable/remove a mailbox in Exch2010 and which is better to get space back?

We have a number of old mailboxes taking up room. The users are long gone and I looked into removing them. The clients of these users have been moved to others. The users had shared folders that held this info. I have a few questions
about the removal.
1. Is there a difference in time before space is given back if I disable versus remove the user in EMC?
2. If an ex-employee had folders that others are sharing, what happens when I do the remove/disable? Will the folders still be out there on the people who had it shared or will it vanish from them too?
Thanks for your help.

"Best practice" is going to be defined by each company. I worked for Microsoft for 13.5 years, assisting over 100 large companies deploy either Windows or Exchange, and none had the same definition for their "best practice".
If you need access to a mailbox for a time period, you figure out a way to keep it. If you want any terminated employee's mailbox gone tomorrow, it is gone tomorrow.
I am a fan of having some sort of process that runs periodically to clear out unnecessary mailboxes and accounts, but if there are business reasons for keeping them around, that needs to be defined into the process. In my current company, terminated
accounts are kept for 30 days, mailbox included. We give mailbox access to a different employee if required and tell them that if they need anything, they need to pull it into their own mailbox. Then, when the account disappears, the mailbox goes
into the dumpster. So, if someone forgot to pull a message, they tell their boss and live with the consequences.
But again, that's just another example of how it might be handled. You get to define what will work for you, including pulling your business units in to help with the definition.
