I need to build a website for my shop but need a simple to use programme, can anybody give me an idea of what to use.
Info:
MacBook
We have a small company and we want to start sending out newsletters
Looking for a good newsletter app to make some very good and pretty newsletters any ideas?
I'm looking for a quick and fun program to mess around with. I mean a program with pre-set graphic objects that you can import into a scene and mess around with.
For example some Lego blocks game. Something with virtually no learning curve, just drag and drop fun.
i frequantly use my macbookpro in huge wi-fi area's and notice a lot of other mac/pc users on their computers as well. Is there a way to totally monitor the network I'm on..(how many users, bandwidth using)
I've seen/heard people "hacking" into others computers on the network and messing stuff up. I just wanna prepare/protech myself.
Can anyone recommend any software that will help me build and maintain a list of home inventory for insurance purposes? Ideally it will sync to multiple computers and the cloud (automatically) for backup. Enable me to group items into different categories and rooms. And generate itemised documents that can easily be converted into PDFs, Emails or Printed Documents for submitting actual insurance claims (hopefully I'll never need to do it). I found Compartments [URL] that gets mixed reviews. I'm going to test it out later, but before I invest too much time in that I wondered if anyone had any better recommendations.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to find an application that I used when I was much younger in the classic environment. It was called Cocoa and was a basic game/application builder that was object-orientated and worked around creating rules for each object. I can remember that the sample level involved moving away from a dog to get a key and open a door - not specific I know but it is something...
I've been trying to find it, but it is hard to find considering there are so many other things called Cocoa. Hoping that someone else knows what I'm talking about, where I could find it or if it's been brought to OS X.
I am going to a website that then automatically proceeds to an unknown website, how do I prevent this?

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.3)
Well I'm planning on making the leap from laptop to desktop next year, when my macbook turns 3. I don't really have any reason to do it, I just figure I've never owned a desktop, and I should give it a shot. Anyways, I love how Mac Pro's look and run, but find that they run way too pricy for my tastes. Come from the owner of a second gen macbook, with just 2 ghz processor, and 64 mb vram, my standards aren't high. Plus I only use about 70 gb of the 120 gb hard drive.
My point, I would really like to build my own Mac Pro, but don't know how customizable they are. For example, would I be able to buy a current Mac Pro (but in a year, so more like a year old rig), and sell the HD and buy a small one turning a profit? My ideal computer set up would be;
3.0 ghz processor
2-4 gb ram
512 vram
120-140 gb hard drive
Can anybody help me know how possible an aspiration this would be next year. I figure If the current mac Pros will (used of course, and by that point 1 yr outdated), run at like 1400 on ebay, and I would sell the HD and buy a cheaper 3rd party for like 100 dollars, I could maybe get a nice computer about about 1000-1300? Anyways, any comments, recommendations, price quotes, or weblinks to third party "built it yourself" mac gear would be much appreciated.
I just finished a project of mine, I decided to build a gaming PC but I wanted it to be a Mac, so I bought a cheap Mac Pro on ebay then added to it over a month or so, I wanted to spend about the same price as a basic Mac Pro from Apple, ?2,000 so here's what I bought
?750:
- Dual 2.66 Ghz Mac Pro 2006 1,1
- 2GB DDR2 FB-DIMM 667mhz RAM
- 250GB HDD
- Superdrive
This is what I've now ended up with after my upgrades:
- 2 x Quad Xeon X5355's @2.66 overclocked to @3.2ghz - 1.313v FSB@1600mhz
- 12GB DDR2 FB-DIMM Kingston RAM @800Mhz
- Sapphire 5870 1GB + XFX 5970 2GB Crossfirex 850/1200
- SATA III 6GB/s + USB 3.0 Asus U3S6
- Bluetooth 2.1 + Airport 802.11n
- 2 x 64GB OCZ Vertex 2E SSD's RAID 0 - Mac OS X 10.6.4
- 60GB Crucial C300 6GB/s - Windows 7 Pro x64
- 1.5TB WD Green - Mac
- 1.0TB WD Green - NTFS
- Liteon Blu-Ray R/W x12
- Apple 1000w PSU
- 5.25" 450 PSU
All together I spent ?2,300 so I went a tiny bit over budget but I did my best not to compromise.
The only other thing I'm thinking of buying is swapping my Asus U3S6 for a dedicated Nvidia Physx card.
Obviously some of my stuff only works in Windows but as I'm not really playing games in OSX that's fine for me.
I'm looking for suggestions to improve my setup so any are welcome. Except those that say "duhhhh haha buy a PC and sell your Mac" because those really are irritating.
I work on several large software projects and need a new rig to handle some heavy compilation.
Here's my criteria for this new system:
Great at compilation/debugging (heavy CPU, RAM, HDD utilization)
Needs to triple-boot (Mac OSX, Windows, Ubuntu)
Needs to support dual monitors
Needs only moderate storage
Fit a US$8000 budget
Here's the components I have selected so far in my BTO Mac Pro:
6 Core 3.33 GHz Xeon Westmere
3GB RAM (will replace with 12GB, see below)
2 TB HDD
ATI Radeon 5870
Dual 27'' Cinema Displays
-- TOTAL: $6100
Here's what I'll be ordering separately, in addition to the above:
SSD Boot Drive: (is this compatible with Mac Pro?)
OCZ Vertex 2 OCZSSD3-2VTX360G 3.5" 360GB SATA II MLC Internal Solid State Drive
-- $1000
12 GB RAM: (I read 3 slots is best for triple-channel)
12GB RAM OWC Memory Kit: 3 x 4.0GB PC10600 DDR3 ECC 1333MHz
-- $330
I've never built nor owned a Mac Pro before so I'd really appreciate any advice or feedback you can give about my build.
I have been pondering building a LAN for a Computer System that is used for Photography Editing/Printing and Videography this will be for multiple MAC computers which will share a mass storage drive and accommodate a print server capable of addressing 6 Epson Stylus Pro printers with print expansion to 10 printers. The beginning network will consist of 2 iMACs, 3 MAC Pro's and 1 MAC Book. The Network server needs to be at least 2 TB with expansion capabilities. In addition, the Server must be able to address up to 8 MAC computers. I have been searching the WWW as well as various manufactures for information but after hours of searching and reading they all claim to be capable of doing what I desire. I am interested in feedback from MAC users who have experience in this area and have positive results. If you have built a similar system and can recommend the Hardware/Software that has functioned with your MAC equipment I would be interested in your results and recommendations. Finances are not an issue so going cheap is not my intent, speed, reliability and expandability are key factors.

How do you install these and build them on your computer?
I am looking at building a network for my company which currently has 1 Hackintosh, 1 Desktop PC, a Windows Laptop and a Macbook Pro. Eventually, I want to convert the whole business over to Mac. I do web development and graphic design.
Should I go down the route of Windows server or Mac OSX Server?
If I choose Mac OSX Server, can Windows machines connect to the OSX network with an account based on the OSX Server?
My only pull either way is the fact that I can get Windows 2008 Server free due to being an IT student at university.
i bought an imac, 10 days ago, and today i took it back, the screen was killing me, i have horrible eye strain and the brightness on the glossy screens is stupid
to get the colour definition ineed to work with i had to have it up to fully brightness, suffering from albinism i have a hyper sensitive retina and simply cannot cope with the extended exposure not to mention a lack of sharpening in the os menues causing me to squint (which combined with the small font size is just horrible)
however, despite this, i love the os, the first tiem i have ever had one, and im hooked
unfortunately i cant get a system anything like equivelant from mac that doesnt have the glossy screen, so im left with no choice but to build one,
so where do i start?
what do i need to know?
is there certain things that will and wont work?
and how much am i looking at?
(and also anyway of reducing the size of the tower i will need)
As you know IE is gone. Is there anything I can do to open this site with out using IE. I tried Safari, Mozilla...

Also when I had IE for OSX it didn't work the way it should. What other choices do I have besides using a PC?
Is it possible to run 2 websites or more now with iWeb 09? I could not figure it out in 08 but I thought I read that you can in 09. This is using one MobileMe account btw.

View 2 Replies View RelatedOK I know most reviews say the SSD is not worth the extra money.
But, when I worked on my friends SSD I must say it just feels faster in normal use. I also know this from my previous laptop where I had SSD.
So I'd like to know:
are there SSD's out there that we can buy and install ourselves?
Which ones and how much do they cost?
I believe it needs to be 1,8 inch with Ziff connection... right?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've done some research on external drive recommendations here. I've read the buying guide thread and most of the threads that it pointed to.
I have narrowed it down to an OWC:
[URL]
or one of the WD with fire wire 800 or building my own with a WD green drive.
My main priorities are for the drive to be quiet, cool and very reliable. I will be used only to back up my 1TB iMac i5.
I am leaning towards building my own so...My questions:
1. In terms of best reliability, what are the different classes of drives. I've heard of the term "enterprise". Is this a higher grade of components? How can I tell from looking at newegg.com which are the "better" drives? I would be looking at WD, hitachi and seagate, with preference in that order. Those seem to be the leaders. Any guidance you can give would be appreciated.
2. Once I pick a disk, what else will I need? I've never built an external drive before so need some help/advise. I know I need an enclosure but not sure if I need to purchase a controller, etc, etc. Which enclosures have good cooling? I am thinking of strapping the external drive to the back of my iMac stand.
I thought all I had to do was drag the URL to whichever blank Top Site I wanted it to be on.
View 6 Replies View RelatedJust a few minutes ago, I pulled up iWeb to work on my band's website, only to find that it's nearly all gone. Only one page of the site remains, and everything else just shows a blank screen. When I try and publish it to a folder, it gives me "Publishing error, an unknown error occured." I simply can't have this happen. This website has taken me over a year to create, and now it's trashed. Where does iWeb store the website? Is there some way I can get it back? I've tried everything, but have had no luck.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a 4.1 Macbook, and in Safari developer 4 or Firefox 3, I can't open the website. I am connected through an ethernet cable, and it previously worked. It either doesn't load or it forwards me to "cjb.net." It doesn't work in Parallels Mozilla or IE either on ethernet. But in bootcamp, it works. The site also works on my Mac side when I'm connected through airport wireless. Why doesn't it work in ethernet only on the Mac side?

Am I missing a command before the browser?

My host went belly up over xmas - and lost allot of data... hence the search... can't count on anyone these days
PS: Carbon and SuperDuper are cloners - not backup apps (subtle differences).... and I need something more NAS traditional - to get "changed" files and such....
Did a search, nothing, I want to rip a flash video off this website: [URL]. I have NO idea how to do it. I have FF and Safari, I don't care which one I use for this.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe only reason I haven't switched from Firefox to Safari yet is because I check some Arabic news websites, and they seem to be incompatible with Safari or something. I attached screencaps of what they look like (Al-Jazeera, Al-Arabiya) As you can see, the text is out of place. It really is an eyesore.
