I'm on a Mac OS X v 10.4.11 with the new Itunes v 7. In my research in how to import my CD collection to Itunes I came across your site. Very informative, but every time I try to follow your instructions it doesn't work. I'm not sure if I've got the download saved properly. For whatever reason, it keeps going to the desktop. I searched and found some bundles with the enabling software for the Lame Encoder but still nothing. I don't get that "added" tab between Window and Help, I don't see in Preferences where I can change it from the AAC to LAME. I'd wait to ask my kids but since they are only 3 & 4 yrs old, and can't read yet - I'll be waiting a long time. I'd really like to be up with the times, era, before they beat me to it. Thanks Wayne!

Tried to solder like you mention over here,started it up and some light came up of the screen. But nothing else. So I started all over again , but now nothing happends anymore. If I place my finger on the chip it feels VERY HOT. So I shut it down before anything got damage. (or am I to late?) Can you tell meif he chip becoming hot as to do whit the fact that the soldering is not good, or does it mean that I did fried it up? My Ibook G4 has the same problem.

Make sure it works by opening it from your computer first - in the ~sites folder. Then upload the entire contents of this folder to your webpage. Then you need to look at the index.html file with your web browser. If it's not working then getting a .mac account is the simplest way to make it work. That's what you pay for doing it the apple way - it simply works! You need to upload all the files using whatever ftp program you have.

I used filezilla I used classicFTP. Now i'm currently trying W2W and it' still loading. Before when i used the other programs, they didn't really appear on the website. The page said /Index. and below that had Sites. I click that and there are a bunch of folders and within them is more folders and when i click on the JPEG files, there are the pictures. And when I click on the other file types they come out as HTMLs or....weird codes I'm not sure. Hm i have the same question as Eric above me.

I just uploaded the folder called "site" through FileZilla. I tried uploading the files individually, but then the text is there but none of the pictures or formatting. I noticed that there are a number of files within the folder that iWeb made for me. Is it ok to just upload the whole folder, or do I need to only do certain files individually? Also I noticed that iWeb created an index.html file outside the folder it made for me. Any help would be appreciated!
