Why the longer web address via MobileMe

Sorry, incomplete subject line in 1st post.
Hi, i'm a novice to iWeb and have been playing around with a few sites and am now trying to publish my site to my MobileMe account.
iWeb help says that the first site to be published or the 1st site in my list in the table on the left side of the screen in iWeb will publish as "http://web.me.com/username" and that subsequent sites would publish as "http://web.me.com/username/sitename".
When I publish my site (the 1st in the list in the table on the left), it publishes as "http://web.me.com/username/sitename".
I know its not critical, but it would look better if it had the shorter address. Is there something that I've done that can be undone or is there something that I could do and should?
Many thanks,
Dom

It's hard to help without having your site's URL. If you prefer not to give it out here, MobileMe live chat support is now 24/7 — see this announcement. Other Apple support options are here.

  • How to make firefox remember the main web address of each website instead of it remembering URLs history?

    Whenever you visit a website such as youtube.com and have searched for videos on the site, firefox remembers all these URLs the next time round you attempt to type youtube.com into the address bar. I find it frustrating because all I want to see is a neat list of websites beginning with the letter 'y' when I begin typing 'youtube' such as youtube.com or yahoo.com, etc. I don't want to see everything else otherwise it just looks messy - you end up having to click on one of the URLs to get to the site again or you end up retyping the main address out yourself (some main web addresses are long!).
    Is there an option in firefox where you can have it only remember the main web address of the sites you have visited instead of all the URLs visited on those sites? I'm not talking about deleting the entire history, just for the address bar to remember a simple list of sites such as google.co.uk, yahoo.com, youtube.com, outlook.com, etc.
    If something like this doesn't exist then I wish someone would give us the option to do that.

    Pick a page you like for that site, then bookmark it. In the future,
    just select the bookmark.

  • When printing, the name & web address accross top of page and date at bottom are garbled, why?

    I just downloaded the ff4 yesterday. When I printed pages from the web the name of the site and address that prints across the top of each page is garbled and so is the page # and date that prints across the bottom of each page. How do I correct this. I need this info. Example: printing bank balances, I can compare balances based on the date I accessed which is printed at the bottom of each page. I never had this problem with the previous version of firefox.

    Does that happen on all pages or only on some?
    You can try to reset the print prefs on the about:config page.<br />

  • WRT54GS: without Windows, force a given MAC address to always get the same IP address via DHCP?

    I have just now set up my WRT54GS to manage my home wireless network, and it works great. I just have one question that I haven't been able to find an answer for (forgive me if I have overlooked an obvious source of information).
    I have set up the WRT54GS to be a DHCP server, and it assigns addresses in an ad hoc manner to all the devices that connect to it. In general, this is what I want, but in one case, I want a certain host to always get the same IP address, for example, 192.168.1.10.
    You should know that I have no Windows machines on my network. Everything is either running Linux, MacOSX, or Symbian (on a Nokia N95 handheld). Therefore, I can't set up a static IP for my device using the software supplied on the CD that comes with my router, as that software only runs under Windows.
    Using a different manufacturer's router, I am able to accomplish this by telling the DHCP software on that router to always assign 192.168.1.10 to the host who connects with a certain MAC address. I can then use this mechanism to force my specific host to always get this desired IP address. However, I haven't been able to find any way to do that with the WRT54GS without the software on the Windows-based CD. Is it possible at all? If I can indeed do this without that Windows software, could someone point me to some docs which explain how to accomplish this?
    ... or is there perhaps a different way to cause this to happen, perhaps by means of some sort of DHCP client ID?
    Thank you very much in advance for any pointers you can give me.

    Take a hippopotamus to lunch today.

    Forget about the CD. There is nothing on the CD which you don't configure better through the router web interface at http://192.168.1.1/ You don't need the CD. Never. I have never used the CD to configure any of my routers. The program on the CD is just a software which helps you with the initial configuration of the router. It is just a software which pretty much contacts the web interface in the background and sends some settings changes there. You can do everything yourself directly. Then you know what you change.
    You have to configure the static IP address on the computer and on the computer only, e.g. on your Mac use Static IP instead of DHCP in the network preferences. Enter the IP address you want to use for the computer, the subnet mask, gateway address and DNS server(s). That's it. The router is not involved in any of this.
    You just have to make sure that you use an IP address inside the LAN of the router. By default, Linksys routers use the IP address 192.168.1.1 on the LAN side for the the router. The subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. The IP address together with the subnet mask says that all IP addresses 192.168.1.0-255 are considered part of the LAN. Everything else is outside and needs to be routed to the router and from there into the internet. (If you want to know how the subnet mask works exactly read the wikipedia article on it or search for "subnet calculator" or similar in the internet)
    Thus, if you connect a computer to your LAN and set a static IP address on the computer it should be inside this IP address subnet/range in order to have internet and LAN access on the computer. It does not matter which address you use as long as it is inside the IP subnet. The DHCP server on the router automatically assign a correct IP address inside the IP subnet and also automatically assigns the correct gateway address (its own address = the address to which everything should be sent which does not belong into the LAN, i.e. the internet traffic) and the DNS server. With static IP you have to assign those values yourself.
    But again, there is no Windows computer or CD involved to do that nor is there any configuration on the router required to set the static IP address on the Mac. The IP address you set must simply match your LAN IP which is basically defined through the settings on the router as you want to have internet and thus need access to the router and its address 192.168.1.1.
    Some routers allow you define fixed IP addresses for specific devices in the DHCP server of the router. With that function you can set a fixed IP address on the router. The computer can remain on DHCP. It will always get the IP address you have configured in the list on the router through the DHCP server. However, your Linksys router does not have this option. If any device inside your LAN is supposed to receive the same IP address at any time you have to configure that on the device only.
    If you have not changed the default LAN IP address, subnet mask and DHCP server settings on the router, the router has 192.168.1.1, subnet mask 255.255.255.0 and the DHCP server uses 192.168.1.100-149 for dynamic assignments. To avoid potential address conflicts you should not use any static IP addresses inside the DHCP server address pool. This leaves you with IP addresses 192.168.1.2-99 and 150-254 as static IP addresses inside your LAN. You can pick any address you like as long as any device with a static IP address has a unique IP address inside your LAN.
    Assign the subnet mask 255.255.255.0 on the computer and set the default gateway to 192.168.1.1. The DNS servers are a little bit more complicated. Generally it is better and faster if you use the DNS servers of your ISP. You can, however, also use the IP address of the router 192.168.1.1 as DNS server. The router will then operate as DNS proxy, i.e. it contacts the DNS servers of your ISP for any request from your computer.
    If you want to use the DNS servers of your ISP, click on the Status tab in the router web interface. It shows you the current settings of the router on the internet port. It should show you multiple entries for DNS servers. Choose those DNS server IP addresses in the computer.
    If you don't want to go through the hassle with the direct access to the DNS servers of your ISP, simple use 192.168.1.1 as only DNS server on the computer.
    There are all settings you have to make on your Mac or other computers to assign a static IP address. As long as the IP address is inside 192.168.1.* it belongs to the LAN and has internet access through the router (as long as the default gateway address is 192.168.1.1 of course).
    Firmware is loaded either through the web interface of the router, usually somewhere on the Administration tab or with tftp. Both ways work fine on any Mac or Linux box.

  • Why the long wait to get fios installed?

    All you read about these days is how the verizon strike hasn't affected service to their customers, and yet I can't even get a date to install the service. To add insult to injury, the operators on the phone refuse to even acknowledge that the strike is the cause for the long delays. Does Verizon really not understand that a person can not wait a month to have tv, phone and Internet installed? I suppose time warner is my only option at this point even with their inferior product.
    If Verizon's treatment of a life long customer is any reflection of how they treat their workers, perhaps unions still play an important role. If only there were consumer union groups...
    If anyone has any ideas on how to actually get fios installed in a reasonable time frame, please inform me. This whole experience has really degraded my opinion of Verizon, a company that currently gets way too much of my hard earned money.
    Joe

    One month? Good luck with that as I am expecting it to be longer than that.  I just moved and had my fios / tv install scheduled for last Wed 8/10/11 and the automated system called me the night before cancelling it on me and stating they have no install dates scheduled but will call when they start accepting them again.  Not sure how long I can leave the family hanging with only OTA on the tv and phones for surfing.............

  • Have used hotmail for some time. Somehow the web address for hotmail in my computer has a 1/2 page of additional redundant script added to it. It now defaults to this long web address when trying to access and prevents access to messages.

    the script is showing font size and additional size details and is really 3 lines long that repeats itself like 15 times over the length of the address. This is a cable hookup.

    Install ClamXav and run a scan with that. It should pick up any trojans.

  • I need to bookmark a site where a new sesion is created each time I go to the site. How do I bookmark just the general web address?

    I have a site that I use for work where each time you go to the site to log in it creates a unique session address but I need to have the general address bookmarked. I can't bookmark the site until after I perform the search.
    So I type https://worldcat.org/wms and begin the search. That address is added to as the search progresses to the log in screen.

    Hello,
    In the Library:
    * Bookmarks [[Image: Bookmarks-29]] > Show All Bookmarks
    ** Note in the Library, you can also manually add a bookmark by right clicking in the main pane and selecting "New bookmark" (as long as you are in one of the Bookmarks Menu, Toolbar, or Unsorted Bookmarks folders)
    * If you click on an existing bookmark in the Library, the information stored in that bookmark should be located in the bottom pane. You can edit the link there.

  • How can I get rid of those icons in safari and have a listing of bookmarks as well as the according web addresses

    Hi, I just upgraded to Yosemite and have a huge problem.
    There are only icons for the bookmarks, however I need the name and the website address in a list view as I cannot handle over 6,000 bookmarks in an icon window... any suggestions?

    Hi annmeyercom,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I can understand wanting to organize and arrange your Safari bookmarks in a way that is beneficial to you. There may be a couple of different solutions to this. The attached article explains how you can see your bookmarks using the Show or hide the sidebar button as well as enabling the Favorites bar which is similar to previous versions of Safari.

  • When i copy the tracks from mac to pc with itunes,why the long names of the tracks changes to short?

    as the question in the title

    Because the PC version of iTunes uses a naming scheme that limits file and folder names to 40 characters (inclusive of the extension).
    If you want the original longer file/folder names then disable the option to Keep iTunes Music folder organized before copying the files over. Alternatively I have written a script called ConsolidateByMoving which will generate long paths if you change the declaration Std=True to Std=False.

  • Why the Safari web inspector shows it takes 16229 days to load some resources?

    As chrome shows everything right, safari always show some resources take 16229.0 days to download, and the resource is actually downloaded in a few ms.
    It happens to every sites(I guess) and every resources randomly.
    All extension is disabled and I just reset safari, but nothing changes.

    Safari also takes a long time(more than 10s) to load a page sometimes while Chrome just load it instantly. I think this happens when it shows to take 16229 days to load resources

  • Why the long wait between the pre-order date and the shipping date of the Motorola Razr??????????

    I don't understand Why Verizon made the shipping date for the Motorola razr two full weeks after the pre-order date? Versus what it did with the iphone 4s where the dates were only 1 week a part. I order it on the 27th.

    I know I really can't wait to get the phone.  I was hoping it might come a little earlier than the 10th but probably not.
