Inviting viewpoints about using bitnami to download drupal...
Hi:
I have read a lot about the drupal core and contributed modules and am excited and ready to download and begin using it.
But, being very much a beginner, downloading (e.g. modifying via the terminal) and setting up the local development environment for the three website projects I want to create seems daunting so I'm looking for a simple way to do this. (I do have MAMP PRO, but even so, it seems very complicated.)
In the course of my research, I came across an apple.com download...

Trying to migrate a development site to a live site
I'm trying to move my development site to a live site and am following Nicole Bluto's Drupal LA seminar notes on "Migrating a Site from Stage to Live".
I've exported my databased using the Backup and Migrate module.
I created a fresh drupal install on the live site.
I've copied my "sites" folder from the development site into the live site.
At this point she says to create a new database... can I not just import my exported database into the fresh install?
Also, she says to alter the settings.php file at line #92
$db_url='mysql://username:password@localhost/databasename';
What do I need to do to get Lightbox to work consistently across different browsers?
I am using Lightbox with the Gallery Assist module and it works fine for me on Firefox (version 3.5.4 on a Mac), but when I attempt to view the gallery on Safari (ver. 4.0.3) the Lightboxes do not show up and a small box appears with an image of a camera crossed out.
The lightbox was working before on other browsers, but apparently I've done something to mess it up.
My test site is: http://www.pastorsstudy.com/testsite
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

What modules do I need to create a simple video gallery using views?
Sorry for the newbie question.
I need to be able to upload quicktime video to my site and use views to make a gallery.
For whatever reason, I'm trying different combinations of modules to accomplish this but I can't seem to find a way to manipulate the video properly in views to get it into a gallery.
Help!
I am organizing weekly 2-hours Drupal sessions in West Hollywood, what would be the best topics to cover?
