FileZilla Client - Step by step installation and upload instructions

FileZilla Client – Step by step installation and upload instructions.

 

Download and install FTP client.


Step 1.
 After you launch FileZilla you should get such screen:

http://www.velnetsupport.co.uk/parrots/FTP/Filezilla/images/fi_020.jpg 

As you can see, the interface is not too complicated. On the left you can see your local folder tree (teal frame) and selected folder content (green frame). The view and program windows are customisable so once you feel more comfortable with it you can adjust it to your preferences.

To configure FileZilla to connect to your website please click on the small computer icon on top left (red arrow).
 



Step 2.
 A Site Manager window will show up. 

Click on
 New Site button and enter a name for the new connection settings. (It can be really anything, it's just so that you know where it takes you to ;)).

Step 3.
 Now you need to fill in the connection details (marked with red arrows). 

Please enter
 host name (this is your FTP address, please NOTE: NO "www", "http" but "ftp" goes in front of the domain name). 

Your
 Server Type is FTP. Logontype is Normal.

Username
 and password should be provided to you in Login Information e-mail from VELNET. 

If you're not using your computer or you share your pc with other people and you don't want them to be able to connect to your site you can select the option not to remember your password (underlined with blue).

Once you're sure the settings are correct click
 Save and Exit button.

Step 4.
 Now After you returned to main program window click small arrow next to the computer icon top left to see drop-down menu. Pick your website from the list to connect.

Step 5.
 Connection established. You will see the folders of your site on the left side of the screen. They vary depending on the type of server you're on (information provided in Login Details email from VELNET).

One of the folders you see is your website main directory, the rest of them are system folders, any modifications you make to the system folders may damage your website structure.

For
 cPanel server type your upload directory is public_html folder. (for PLESK look further down)

If you are on
 PLESK server your folder structure will look different and your upload folder is httpdocs.

http://www.velnetsupport.co.uk/parrots/FTP/Filezilla/images/fi_061.jpg



Step 6.
 Enter (double-click) your upload directory (public_html or httpdocs).

http://www.velnetsupport.co.uk/parrots/FTP/Filezilla/images/fi_7.jpg



Step 7.
 Now find (your website)files you want to upload on your local machine (left-side folder tree and content).

Simply select the files and drag-and-drop them to the right of the screen (your web folder).

http://www.velnetsupport.co.uk/parrots/FTP/Filezilla/images/fi_080.jpg


You will notice the transfer progress on the bottom of the screen.

http://www.velnetsupport.co.uk/parrots/FTP/Filezilla/images/fi_090.jpg

If all is OK, your FileZilla window will show the files you uploaded on the right.

http://www.velnetsupport.co.uk/parrots/FTP/Filezilla/images/fi_091.jpg



Congratulations!
 You have just uploaded the website. It should be visible in your internet browser window.

NOTE:
 In order for the website to show only after you enter the domain name in internet browser your main webpage MUST be named index.html (or index.htm, index.php... you get the idea).



Step 8.
 If you change/update any of the files on your PC and wish to apply the changes on your website, all you need to do is again to drag-and-drop the desired file to it's web destination and confirm the prompt window to OVERWRITE the file on the server. 

NOTE: Please make sure you really want to do the changes as you will not be able to change it back, unless off course you have a back up on your local machine.

http://www.velnetsupport.co.uk/parrots/FTP/Filezilla/images/fi_092.jpg



Step 9.
 When you upload everything you need you can close the connection. To that click the icon pointed by red arrow.

You can safely close the program now by clicking the "x" in red button top left of the screen.

Outlook 2010 - Migrate Autocomplete contacts

 

Copy the .nk2 file from your old Outlook profile.


Tip You can copy the file to removable media, such as a USB key (Pen drive) or a CD (DVD), and then copy the file to the correct location on the other computer. Or you can attach the file to an e-mail message and send the message to yourself. On the new computer, open the attachment, and then save it to the correct location.
Note You must exit Outlook before starting the following procedure. The names will be included in AutoComplete when you restart Outlook.

1. On the Office 2010 where you want to migrate the AutoComplete feature too, Paste the NK2 file to drive:%user name%\%appdata%\Roaming\Microsoft\Outlook\
2. If prompted about replacing the existing file, click “yes”.

3. Note that the .nk2 file must have the same name as your current Outlook 2010 profile. By default, the profile name is “Outlook.” To check the profile name, follow these steps:

4. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
5. Double-click Mail.
6. In the Mail Setup dialog box, click Show Profiles.
7. Click Start, and then click Run.
8. In the Open box, type outlook.exe /importnk2, and then click OK. This will import the .nk2 file into the Outlook 2010 profile.

 

You are done.

Ipad on Top

Are you one of the two out of 10 U.S. tablet owners who doesn't have iPad?

Tablet usage US Q1 11

Yes, you're a minority. But do you feel like an individualist -- that grand defiant person who refuses to be one of the sheep? Or are you embarrassed to take your tablet out for fear the pad people will scoff at you? If it's any consolation, your numbers are growing ever so slightly -- from 9 out of 10 (based on Apple assertions) just two months ago. If there's safety in numbers, you've got a long way to go yet.

Eighty-two percent of U.S. tablet owners are pad people -- er, iPad owners, Nielsen revealed on May 5. But that's not you. You're more likely to be an "other" tablet owner than any, well, other. That category accounts for 9 percent of U.S. owners -- right, nearly one in 10. The next lot of you own Samsung Galaxy Tab (4 percent). Another 3 percent own the Dell Streak and 2 percent the Motorola XOOM. Well, so much for Android 3.0 "Honeycomb" pulling away people from iPad, eh.

Among the pad people, 43 percent suckered up for the big spending, plunking down anywhere from $629 to $829 for iPad with WiFi and 3G. Thirty-nine percent own Wi-Fi only iPads. They only paid between $499 and $699. But iPad buyers aren't obligated to take a costly data plan or lock into a two-year contract as you most likely did. Are you now feeling sorry about those monthly data-plan fees for the tablet you daren't take out in public?

US tablet behavior Q1 11

Nielsen wrote about you -- well, supposedly, in a blog post today that summarized new research. I say "supposedly" because those eight out of 10 pad people. We can only assume that the findings reflect your behavior. Nielsen says that "iPad continues to dominate the conversation -- and market." Perhaps iPad overly dominates the research, too.

Nielsen claims that about one third of tablet owners use their desktop PC less and 3 percent "do not use it anymore." It's 30 percent and 2 percent, respectively, for laptops.

Tablet usage US Q1 11

"Twenty-seven percent of those who also own e-readers said they use their e-reader less often or not at all," according to Nielsen. You were such a rugged individualist when buying Kindle years ago. Now look at you. Uh-oh, "25 percent [of] tablet owners who own portable games consoles are using those devices less often, if at all, since purchasing a tablet." So much for that Nintendo 3DS, eh?

But is any of this about you, or just the pad people? We want to know. Be proud of being different, or pretend to be so you can tell us in comments.
