Why should I ask the community?

Why should I ask the community, isn’t apple the one whom I should be getting help from?

I don’t need apple points or free staff, considering that I have to work to make my leaving. I don’t have the time or the aspiration for it. I just want to know “ Why iweb is limited on the web site dawn load” I understand if the web site has been designed with other software , but have no understanding otherwise and I can care less for some smart… telling me to do backups or to get told to start all over!!!

I since I don’t have all this time and I don’t wish to make all this time for communities, I just want understand if is time to stop buying apple products.

Why don't you ask Apple instead of this community.

It is your choice. If you don't want to ask the community then don't. Pretty simple.

Old Toad, one of the most knowledgeable people on this board gave you the answer to your question. It's unfortunate that it's not the answer that you wanted to hear. That doesn't change the reality of the situation, though. Apple Technical Support will most likely not give you any different answer and they will charge you for it. However, it is your choice to talk to them.

In case it's unclear to you where to look, contact information for Aople, including for technical support, can be found by using the Contact Us link at the bottom right corner of every page.

There are an awful lot of nice, civilised and knowledgeable people here to help you. I think you should try them out before you harangue at the system.

Such "ask again" behaviors are common, as you well know (although one definition of insanity is repeating a behavior and expecing a different result).

Sometimes after 5 pages of complaining about the answers sometimes one person at least gives an answer the OP will accept.

Hi everybody first my apologies to the community members, It was not my intention to offend any of you or to criticize your genuine help!

I’m very disappointed with Apple’s business conduct and their assistance in my home town, after changing he back cover of my Mac book, it didn’t work anymore. I bought a new one and all my problems with iweb started. I went to different concessionaire but they had no solution for my problem. I won’t get in the details; I just cannot understand why the iweb software doesn’t have choice to dawn load sites creates with iweb! One again my excuses to the community!

Sincerely Oidige

A new Mac running Lion will not have iWeb installed, as it has been withdrawn by Apple.

To get it you will have to purchase the full version of iLife 11 from Amazon.

BTW, the same applies to iDVD.

That is just the way it works, ever since it was introduced 6 years ago. As with any other piece of software, if you don't like it, try something else. There are many, many web editors for OS X. One list is here:
