Issues with publishing my iWeb site to .MAC - Progress bar freezes at 100%

Well, as topic says, i'm having troubles publishing my iWeb site to .MAC now since upgrading to '08. The progress bar reaches full circle, but then nothing. Left it uploading to .Mac for well over 2 hours one time while out of the house...nada. Sometimes i get an error message, sometimes not and have to close iWeb while it's still publishing.
Any feedback regarding this?
Thanks in advance.

Update: After 36 hours, I have successfully managed to upload my entire website via the "Publish All to .Mac" option. I now have blue indicators on the left side of my iWeb program in place of those pesky red ones. How did I do it? Well, I'm not sure. But on my last attempt I looked at the problem from a different perspective, so I took an alternate approach. I had a feeling that I was experiencing a network timeout issue caused by a 3rd party software, so I created a Whitelist entry on my website filtering software that allows unlimited access to "idisk.mac.com";; and "web.mac.com";; domains. I've got two kids at home, so I'm running the free OpenDNS Dashboard service on my network which provides content filtering (blocks adult site, phishing site, etc..). I started using this service two weeks ago. My last website update was a week before that. I figured I had nothing to loose by trying. To my surprise, it worked. Now, it took almost two hours to publish, of which the pie indicator was in the  "filled" position for a nerve racking hour. To reconfirm,  I then made a minor change to one of the pages on my website and re-published. This time using the "Publish to .Mac" option in place of the ALL option and once again it worked. It took less than 5 minutes. Now, I'm not sure if this is a coincidence, maybe Apple fixed the problem, or maybe my website filtering service was causing some type of time out issue all along??  Don't know.. But at least for now, I'm a happy camper since I have my site up.

  • Issues with loading my iWeb site on my Yahoo hosted ftp

    I consider myself pretty good at troubleshooting applications on mac but iweb 09 has really stumped me. My gut feeling tells me its more of a Yahoo site ftp issue but not sure. I'm not sure if anyone else has had this issue with Yahoo web hosting but after I have built my site on iWeb and hit upload it says successful. I go to my website and nothing is there at all. Nothing except an error. This is the site im building for: http://www.peterherro.com/ As you can see there is nothing. Yet I have tried uploaded via FTP in the settings. i even tried using mobileme and having it redirect from the site to the mobileme hosted site. iWeb always thinks it did it's job when i upload but it isn't doing a thing. If i go to my mobile me it shows that my site is uploaded but if i click the clink i get an error. this is the link. http://www.peterherro.com/Main/Welcome.html
    I hope this makes sense and I am hoping someone might be able to give me some insight. I hate feeling defeated by this but i am at a lose. Thanks in advance!

    Cany you tell iweb to redirect people from your domain name (EX: www.PeterHerro.com) to http://web.me.com/PeterHerro ?
    You have it backwards. You tell the place where your personal domain name (Yahoo?) to point that name at your site hosted on iWeb. You can do this via url forwarding, where you just type http://web.me.com/PeterHerro into a form. Or you can do it via CNAME, where you set the www CNAME to web.me.com (plus put your personal name in the MobileMe account settings).

  • How do I fix an error "4652747.png" when publishing my iWeb site to iMac?

    Every time I try to publish my iWeb site to .Mac I get an error message that says there's an error in " ...files/ca4652747.png." I know this is an image file, but when i search for it on my hard drive it shows a blank image. I've tried deleting the file from the hard drive but when I re-publish, a second file "c00ff001c.png" on a different web page shows the same error. I can't figure out how to fix these errors. It publishes to a folder, or so it says, but i don't know how to check that. I am supposed to publish the entire site at the end of this week and have all the work done but can't get past this point. Can anyone help me? I'm a new mac user and this is my first shot at web design, so I've probably missed something obvious, but would appreciate any help.

    k, try this:
    backup your domain file! delete the one in the folder BUT HAVE A COPY OF IT SOMEWHERE ELSE. Then open iWeb, create something save it and publish it!
    now go to your backuped file,make one more backup!!!!
    move one of the backuped files into the Users/username/bblablabla folder and open iWeb. try publish all and see if it works!

  • Can't publish my iWeb site - has index file something to do with it?

    Hi, I've been trying to publish my iWeb site (not on a .Mac account but through ftp upload) but it hasn't worked out so far... I phoned my webspace provider's support service and the wguy I spoke to was convinced that it's due to the index file not being an .html file (he thought that the problem lies with the index.xml.gz file). Searching the discussions on this site, I figure that this isn't what's causing the problem after all...
    To continue working on the site while using another computer, I copied the 'Domain' over. Now that I've brought it back to the original computer, it seems to be causing these problems. Any idas what I could do or where the problem lies? I'd be really grateful for any hints as it's driving me 'round the bend! Cheers, A

    Did you name any of your site's pages "index"?  That can cause problems.
    Are you able to publish your site to afolder on your hard drive and open it locally with your browser?  If you haven't tried  do so and see if you can.  If you can and the site works as you designed it then the issue is in the uploading of the files.
    In that case you might try using  Cyberduck to upload your site folder and  index.html file to your server.

  • Has anyone published their iWeb site to their old Homepage folder?

    Hi,
    I'd like to avoid changing URLs, and was thinking I could just publish the iWeb site to the folder my homepage site is in on my iDisk. Would that work? Has anyone done that before? Any issues I should know about?
    Thanks for your help!
    Lora

    Lora. It can be done but not much is to be gained and many features will not work the same as if published to a "folder" and then uploaded to your iDisk.
    Do a bit of "homework" and learn some of the rules about iWeb, Homepage and your iDisk.
    Changing your URL's is the easy part. Getting all the external parts to work is, well, work.
    Plenty of ways to integrate older pages (via external links) into your new iWeb pages.
    The brave can edit the html code to make their own iWeb and Homepage Sites:

  • Does anybody know if we can publish an iWeb site in iCloud?

    I was a member of MobileMe but since it was announced that it will be discontinued I didn't renew my subscription.
    So, my question is if, I can publish my iweb site to iCloud?
    Please advise.

    What happens to the iWeb sites that I’ve published to MobileMe?
    You can continue publishing iWeb sites to MobileMe through June 30, 2012, even after moving to iCloud. With iWeb you can easily move a site published to MobileMe to another web hosting service and you should do so before that date. Please read this article for details.

  • I'd like to publish an iWeb site within iCloud account.  How do we do this please?

    I'd like to publish an iWeb site within my iCloud account.  How do I do this please?

    To publish your website you need to choose a hosting service. Here are some some pointers about what to look for...
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/Website-Hosting.html
    Most hosting services will also offer you at least on free domain name registration.
    Since you are using iWeb '08 you will need to publish to a local folder and upload the files using an FTP application...

  • What FREE hosting service should I publish my iweb site to???

    What's the best free website hosting service I should use to publish my iweb folder to through FTP???
    I dont get how to use FTP to publish my iWeb site folder to a website server also?? I have Cyberduck.
    Please, any suggestions will be much appreciated!!!!:)

    You publish to a folder and then use an FTP client like the free CyberDuck to upload to your selected host server. You'll need to search for free hosting servers and select the one that will work best for you. You will get ads embedded in your web site when you use a free hosting service.

  • Issue with Photo Sharing on iPhoto on Mac

    Hellp everyone, this is my first time posting on the Apple Support communities. I have been having issues with my Photo Sharing on my Mac (Iphoto 11). I recently was on vacation and wanted to share the photos with my girlfriend and a few family members. I uploaded my photos to Iphoto on my mac and then went to Share, Photo Stream, and then crated a Photo Stream of our vacation. It asks me to name the photo stream and invite people. When I click on ok it creats the photo stream and the people I invited get invitations to join the photo stream, however, when I go to look at the photo stream there is no photos in it and none of the people i invited see any of the photos either. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you!

    SOLVED!
    I had the same question.  Visited this thread and was disappointed to hear the feature was gone.
    Then I thought it just COULDN'T be.  So I kept tapping.  AND FOUND IT!
    Basically, when you are in your Photos App, as a previous poster said, it now divides your photos into "Moments".  These moments are arragned by Place and Date.
    Wherever it says the name of a place, just tap the name of the place (above the tiled thumbnails of the pics taken in that place) and you will be taken to a map, centered on the Moment in question.  Use finger gestures to zoom in and out, and you will see the pics you have taken, georeferenced and tagged to the locations you took them, as before (except now in IOS7 it uses Apple Maps, not Google).
