Can I recover iWeb files from MobileMe?

Migration Assistant hasn't been very good to me over the years and when I moved from my old iMac to my Intel iMac I had to do all the transferring of files by hand - painful... and not so effective as it turns out. Somehow I lost the base files (not sure what they're called) for all of my iWeb sites. Now when I open iWeb it starts from scratch as if I'd never created any pages before.
However, my sites are all still up on MobileMe and so I can browse to them. And obviously when I go to MobileMe and look in the Web/Sites/iWeb folder I see the files for my old sites. It looks as if there's a folder for each site, an HTML file for each page and a folder for all of the files displayed on that page.
My question is whether there is any way to recover these sites and pages back onto my mac so that I can edit them. Anyone know if that be done?
Thanks!

Benjamin ~ Only iWeb's Domain file can be opened in iWeb. See this Apple doc on How to back up MobileMe data. It says:
Any websites you have published with iWeb should still be available within iWeb. iWeb stores everything in a Domain file, normally located in the ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder (although it can be moved). If you no longer have this file, you can view your currently published pages and manually recreate them within iWeb, but there is no way to import published pages back into iWeb. You can manually back up the Domain file, or use Backup to back it up.
Paragraph 2.3 of _this FAQ page_ gives some tips on how to use published files, graphics, photos, etc., to help rebuild the site from scratch.

How can i transfer iweb files from one computer to another?

Hi,
Recently my harddrive crashed and i had to rebuild my computer. I retreived most of my files but i cannot find where my iweb files are located. Does anyone know where iweb saves files or how to retreive my domain files from the web (if at all possible)?
Thanks

Unless you moved the Domain file, that's its default location. Make sure you're looking in the Library folder in your Home folder rather than Macintosh HD. See also THIS recent post.

2007 iMac, replaced hard drive, can't recover old files from old hard drive!

So I have a 2007 intell imac, the hard drive went out, I replaced it and bought a thermalake blacx hard drive doc to get my files off the old hard drive. I run Disk Utility, it can see the old hard drive but it can't repair it or verify it. Do I need to get a third party to get the info off hte old hard drive??? HELP!!!HELP!!!!!

You could use a data recovery service but that's going to be really expensive. You could also try a data recovery software like DataRescue III http://store.apple.com/us/product/TX415LL/A/prosoft-data-rescue-3
Or DiskWarrior http://www.alsoft.com/diskwarrior/
Either might help, I prefer DiskWarrior, but it's also possible that neither will. A hard lesson learned regarding backups I suppose.

How can I recover my files from a My Book Essential 3TB external hard drive?

The hard drive was no longer showing up on the desktop or Disk Utility even after changing cables and power supplies. So I tried another remedy and took out the hard drive of the Western Digital case and put it in a Rosewill external case. Still no luck. The only thing that shows up on the Disk Utility is what I assume is probably the external case itself but it doesn't detect the hard drive. Are the files recoverable? Will a program like DiskWarrior work? I am a little irked by the price especially if it will not work for my situation. Please help! Thank you!

Time Machine 10.5.3 can now recover individual File Vault files?!

I don't know when this happened, but it appears that I can now recover individual files from a FV protected account using TM in Leopard 10.5.3. It works just like it does with an unprotected account;choose a folder, click in the dock, zoomy UI.
What's more, while logged into a FV protected account, I can chose BackUp Now... and it does just that. The only difference is that when I log off of a FV protected account, a backup is performed, which makes sense since individual files cannot be backed up once the FV protected account is logged off.
Am I right? This was such a big user issue I am surprised Apple didn't make a bigger issue about announcing it.

Neither OS X nor QuickTime natively allows the playback of .flv content. However, adding Perian to your system

playback. I imagine that at some point in the past, you must have installed Perian on your MBP but not on your Mac Pro.

I downloaded an Adobe file from my email but cannot find it on my hard drive or in recycle bin - it's in downloads but am unable to open from downloads - how can I recover the file?

I downloaded an Adobe file from my email (service provider is MWeb) but now cannot find it on my hard drive and it's not in the recycle bin. It does, however, appear in Firefox downloads but I'm unable to open it from there. How can I recover the file?

Thanks Rob.
I actually had no clue what the core problem was caused by. So it's Windows itself...that helps some.
I'll resubmit there. It might actually have saved time for it to simply have been moved to there instead of off-topic, though I suppose you have to follow protocol.

HT4873 How i can recover deleted files from icloud,,I had a backup copy on iCloud for whatsapp application and I lost it,,I need bring it back what I have to do

How i can recover deleted files from icloud,,I had a backup copy on iCloud for whatsapp application and I lost it,,I need bring it back what I have to do

You can't download pictures from iCloud by logging into icloud.com. If you deleted pictures from camera roll AND photo stream, the only possibility is preforming a restore from an iCloud backup, assuming the backup has the pictures in it. (Many users have been unable to restore and get back their pictures.)
If the restore doesn't have all the pictures, then they are gone.
In the future, use photo stream to sync photos from an iPhone to a computer, then copy the photos on the computer from the photo stream album into a permanent album. Photo stream pics stay there only for 30 days, and only up to 1000 photos are stored. Don't use photo stream as a storage medium, it's only for copying photos from one device to another. Always copy (either via USB cable or photo stream) to a computer and then move to an album.

Published my iWeb files to MobileMe but can't get to domain

I've finally been able to publish my iWeb files to MobileMe (after 2 days of trying -- a message kept appearing that said "iWeb couldn’t publish to MobileMe. The MobileMe servers are busy. Please try again in a few minutes."), but now when I try to go to my domain name (www.julie-harrison.com) it automatically redirects to "www.web.me.com".
Help!
juleslarosa

Well, have you followed all the instructions about linking your domain name to MobileMe?
Have you entered your domain name in your MobileMe personal domain name settings? If not, then go and do this.
You then need to go to your domain name registrar and forward your domain name to web.me.com, by going to the DNS settings and setting up a new CNAME forwarding. Have you done this? If not, then go and do it.
You need to do all these things for your domain name to work.
By the way, it is web.me.com. If you keep typing www.me.com, then no it won't work.
Your url will always be http://web.me.com/username/sitename.

How can I move AVCHD files from my MacBook Air to my Mac Pro?

While on the road, I will be putting my AVCHD video on my MacBook Air. This will free up space on the SD card and enable me to export clips to iWeb, etc. But when I get back to my desk, I'll want to put all of that AVCHD content onto my Mac Pro for more thorough editing and long term storage. What is the best way to move the unedited AVCHD files (events) from one computer to the other?

Jim,
There's a few ways you can do this but here's a method thats simple which also provides you with a backup of the movies contained on your SD card.
Try creating a disk image from your SDHC card from your Cam. You'll need an SD card reader and when you connect to your MBA you can create a .dmg file from disk utility.
Once you've done that you can launch imovie and then double click on your .dmg and imovie will prompt you if you want to add the movies to your library.
When you get back home you can follow the same procedure by copying over your .dmg. No need to export from imovie on your MBA to your MP. The added benefit is that you have a complete backup of your SDHC card in the .dmg which you can backup to DVD.
Hope this helps.

I lost my hard drive contents and itunes wasn't backed up. Can I recover the library from my iPad?

I lost my hard drive contents and itunes wasn't backed up. Can I recover the library from my iPad?

You won't be able to recover you entire library from your iPad but you can recover some of its contents by transferring the purchases back to iTunes. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 This will not transfer anything you did not purchase from iTunes, for example music or video files you had stored on the HD and you put into iTunes. Without a backup that information is gone. One very important thing to keep in mind. Once you sync the iPad to the new iTunes it will remove all the afore mentioned music or video files from the iPad. Do not sync with iTunes if you want to keep those files. Hope that helps.
