IWeb can't find prior files

Last month, I created a website with iWeb. I launched iWeb this morning to make some changes and it just shows "?" marks where content used to be. Anyone have any suggestions? I'm a long time Mac user but short time iWeb user.
Thanks in advance!

You would be better served to keep a backup copy of your Domain.sites2 file that's located in your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder on a flash drive. Keep it backed up each time you use iWeb with backup software that can make incremental backups, i.e. backup only those new or changed files.
I use Synk Pro which can be setup to make the update changes to as they are made or at intervals like Time Machine. All in the background. There are other backup apps that can do incremental backups. Go to MacUpdate.com and search for "backup" to get possible candidates.
Happy Holidays

  • Iweb can not find some files so MainEvent template crashed

    Hi guys, just 5 minuetes ago I opened an IWeb and there was an error "Iweb can't locate files:......" So now a MainEvent template doesn't work correctly, but other templates do...help me please(((

    You can try the troubleshooting steps under "Fix iWeb" here.....
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/WebMusic/iWebTips.html
    If this doesn't fix it you may have some domain file corruption. Do you have a Time Machine backup just in case?

  • Can't find admin files on former startup disk - now 2nd drive on MacPro

    Help, My G5 tower died and I bought a MacPro tower. I put the drive from the G5 in the MacPro as a second drive and it runs fine but I can't find any files I created under the root user. I used Root for about six months while my system was dying a slow death due to some motherboard failure. I kept losing access to the user accounts but not root so I just worked in that. I know the root password and all but I have no idea how to even find the files. I can ironically now access all of the user files but everything done under "root/admin" is invisible.
    Is there a way to simply access files like iWeb sites, etc on the old G5 drive? Is there a way to install OSX on the backup and re-access the G5 files?
    Thanks!

    Do you mean you are looking for the root user's home folder?
    You can find that under /var/root on your old G5 disk. From Finder, select Go menu > Go to Folder..., and enter /Volumes/G5diskname/var/root.
    You need root permission to get into that directory though, so if you want to use Finder you will have to be logged in as root. Or, a safer way, is to just remain logged in to your regular user account, right-click the G5 disk, Get Info, and select "Ignore ownership on this volume" under the ownershop & permissions section. Then you should have full access to everything on the drive without having to log in as root.

  • Help:Can not find the file in jar!

    Hello everyone:
    I build a project using Netbeans 5.0 and make a jar file with it...
    The code in the project as follows will throw an exception described that it can not find the file named datasource-config.xml
    String dataFilePath = getClass().getResource(dataFile).getPath();
    //System.out.println("filepath:"+dataFilePath);
    InputStream input = new FileInputStream(dataFilePath);
    when I run the project with the main() function as an entry it works perfectly and output:
    filepath:/C:/projects/java_project/search/build/classes/com/cn/wxjt/lucene/config/datasource-config.xml
    But when I compressed the project with jar and run it , it will show:
    filepath:file:/C:/projects/java_project/search/dist/search.jar!/com/cn/wxjt/lucene/config/datasource-config.xml
    there is a (!) between search.jar and /com/cn/wxjt...
    I dont know why I generate a ! symbol in the file path... Is it cause the exception->
    java.io.FileNotFoundException: file:\C:\projects\java_project\search\dist\search.jar!\com\cn\wxjt\lucene\config\datasource-config.xml
    If you have any idea, plz tell me.
    Thank you and best wishes to you !
    :)

    If the file you want to read is in your jar file, use
    getClass ().getResourceAsStream
    (relative_path_file_name)Hope that help,
    Jackhey jack i want to open the file as new File
    i m using this.getClass().getResource("resource/backend.xml");
    the resource is the directory inside the jar file.
    when i prints the url it shows:
    the jar file is in the WORK directory
    URL : jar:file:/home/neeraj/WORK/show.jar!/resource/backend.xml
    now when i creates new File using the url.getFile() method the file does not exist.
    although the same programs runs well when i uses the InputStream
    so plz tell me cant I create a new File from the above method????
    thanks in advance
    with regards
    neeraj

  • Move all my music to another folder but Itunes can't find the files!

    I have all my music on my desktop in small folders for each artist.
    But now i don't have room anymore, because i have to much music.
    So i want to move it all in to a folder called "Music". But when i do that
    Itunes can't find the files, and i have to search for each file, to find the new location instead of the desktop. How do i move my music more easily? So i don't have to synchronize it all in again, with the right album covers and that..
    Please, need some help here!

    You need to open your preferences file in iTunes and click on advance then select the location of where you put the folder.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527

  • I cant access firefox, everytime i try i get that windows can't find the file, i tried redownloading it but it still gave me the same message?

    i cant access firefox, everytime i try i get that windows can't find the file, i tried downloading it again but it still gave me the same message. the problem has nothign to do with my internet because it wonks on internet explorer and everythign is fine, my computer just can't access firefox for some reason. i tried uninstallign ti adn then installing it again, but that didnt work, i tried installing a different version and it still didnt work.
    okay the exact message is" Windows cannot find 'C:\Program Files\Mozilla Forefox 4.0 Beta 1\firefox.exe'. make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search.
    Nothing happens after i install is the "Launch Firefox now" checkbox set, the same message comes up.
    i usually start firefox from the shortcut i have on my desktop but when this happened i thought that the shortcut is the problem, but i went to the Mozilla firefox folder and tried it from there, but it didnt work. i also tried downloading different versions of firefox but that didnt work either.

    can you tell me the solution to "windows cant find firefox" error. thanks.

  • Had to uninstall Firefox, now I can't reinstall. Get error message "Can not find archive file." Please help!

    I believe I had some kind of virus attack. I got everything cleaned up. (I HOPE) In the process of cleaning the virus, I unintalled Firefox because it wouldn't open. Kept getting the error message that Firefox was already open and I had to close out of the sessions or restart the computer. After restarting the computer several times and not being able to find any open sessions in task manager, I uninstalled. When trying to reinstall, I get the error message "can not find archive file." I've tried downloading Firefox from cnet as well as the Mozilla site to no avail. Please help. I'm getting tired of using Chrome already!

    Hello,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.

  • Firefox can't find the file at (a location is specified) when either "Navigate previous" (and next) buttons are pressed in an HTML5 skin (but OK in IE/Chrome).

    I create HTML5 help projects from a package called MadCap Flare. It uses what they call an HTML5 'skin' that sets the style/layout of the page and also includes 'Navigate previous' and 'Navigate next' buttons. When viewing the help and pressing these navigate buttons in IE8 or Chrome 32 there is no problem, but in Firefox 27 I get the following: (typical error for pressing a button on any page)
    "File not found"
    "Firefox can't find the file at /C:/SVN/FlareEnglishOnLineHelp/Output/HTML5_Help_Modeller_Reference/4attrib/idh_jointinterface_element_meshes.htm?TocPath=Modeller Reference Manual|Chapter 5 : Model Attributes|Meshing|_____2."
    " Check the file name for capitalisation or other typing errors."
    " Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted."
    - Because the files and buttons work in other browsers I'm wondering just what is going on here with Firefox>>>>

    I should correct that last entry and state that the | charactacters are generated automatically in the Toc-Path for each 'book' name in the online help, and are not something manually created, whereas the : characters have come from the TOC book topic names (which were manually entered names and are what we would ideally require). But, because 'previous' and 'next' topics within nested TOC books without colon (:) characters CAN be browsed successfully when just | characters are present in the Toc-Path, the limitation would appear to be solely due to the : characters.

  • My home page is google and it works but when I open a new tab it displays an error message :Firefox can't find the file at chrome://quick_start/content/index.ht

    I've made sure a dozen times that my home page is set correctly, and when I hit the home button next to the search bar it works and takes me right to google BUT whenever i open a new tab i get the error that my page cannot load and the web url that it keeps trying to remember is in the error message:
    Firefox can't find the file at chrome://quick_start/content/index.html.
    of course the last dot is not the url anymore but the end of the sentence for the error message, but i don't ever use chrome ever on my laptop only my cell so what is going on????? help fix god please!!!!!!

    Do you have the FastStart extension?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

    My computer is saying it can't find the file 'iTunes64.msi' when I try to update or redownload iTunes how do I fix this? I've tried just about everything I can think of. I am using a dell laptop running windows 7 and have tried changing the file location to run the update in all of my iTunes files as well as when I've tried reinstalling it.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • I just got a new MacBook Pro, and I tried to bring across my files from my last mac using time machine. After it was done copying I can't find my files anywhere but the space (about 130gb) has been used on my hard drive. Help please!!

    I just got a new MacBook Pro, and I tried to bring across my files from my last mac using time machine. After it was done copying I can't find my files anywhere but the space (about 130gb) has been used on my hard drive. Does anyone know how I can get to them? I did change my user name from 'user' while it was copying, could this have something to do with it?

    You don't want to do that by copying.
    Your best bet, by far, is to use Setup Assistant.  If your Mac is running Snow Leopard, see Using Setup Assistant on Snow Leopard or Leopard.
    If it came with Lion, it's a bit different: Using Setup Assistant on Lion

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • When I click "about this mac" to check on my storage, I get a number of different sections music, movies, etc. but also I get a section called backups, where can I find the files in this section?

    When I click "about this mac" to check on my storage, I get a number of different sections music, movies, etc. but also I get a section called backups, where can I find the files in this section?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    All the storage in "Backups" is taken up by local snapshots, which are made automatically in all MacBooks, MacBooks Pro and MacBooks Air with OS X Lion or newer and Time Machine turned on.
    See > http://pondini.org/TM/30.html I recommend you to leave them there, because they will be removed automatically. However, if you want, you can disable or remove them manually if you want, even if there's no reason to do this. Have a look at the link above for more information
