IWEB not uploading URL correctly

For several days I have been struggling with IWEB to get it to load to my url through ftp. Here is the thing....IWEB makes you do a "site name" and when you do that it becomes the landing URL for example I want people to type in www.photocandy.biz and get to my site. Well I have index for example as my site name and so as a result the url is www.photocandy.biz/index this is what it is defaulting to. I am so frustrated I dont know what to do please help.
Thank you

What iWeb does is not incorrect - it is the way that iWeb does it and has done it from iWeb 06. It is the site structure that is used like it or not. When published, iWeb creates your Site folder that will be the same name that you gave your site in iWeb and also a separate index.html file and both of these need to be uploaded to your server, so hence your url will be http://www.domain.com/sitename/pagename.
If you want anything different, then you will probably need to download Cyberduck free from the internet. This is a dedicated ftp client. From iWeb use the publish to a folder option and then connect to your host using Cyberduck and rather than uploading the whole site folder and index file, just upload the contents of your site folder. Your url will then be http://www.domain.com/pagename. Note that RSS feeds will not work if you do this as you have broken the site structure.
In iWeb 09, I think it might be possible to do the same with the built in ftp by naming your site either 'public_html", "www", or "htdocs" or whatever your host has for you to upload to. You then leave the directory/path field empty and then upload and you should get just the contents of the folder rather than the hole folder itself.
I have never tried this so don't know whether it works. Although I use 09, I still publish to a folder and upload with Cyberduck.

Iweb not publishing to correct domain

I am totally new to iweb and have just finished designing my website. I own both web hosting and a domain name with justhost.com
I have set up ftp and when i try to publish my site, it does it to the wrong domain name.
e.g. my domain is myweb.com
the website name in iweb is myweb
when the site is published it is published to myweb.com/myweb
therefore it doesnt work properly and I have spent hours trying to figure it out, but no luck!
Hope someone can help

This is absolutely normal for iWeb and it is iWeb site structure - every iWeb site has to be given a name in iWeb itself, so when you publish your site, it will be published in a folder with your site name and then a separate index file - totally normal.
Your url will then be http://www.domain.com/sitename/pagename.
You named your site in iWeb and you can alter this to something short like Site etc.
Alternatively, do what Roddy has suggested and publish your site to a local folder from iWeb and then use Cyberduck to upload directly to your server. However, just upload the contents of your site folder only and then your url will be http://www.domain.com/pagename.

IWeb not uploading audio content

Hi folks
I've a problem with audio content on my iWeb site. I've created it as a podcast in iWeb and before I upload seem to work fine, including playing the mp3 files I've dropped into it. But when I upload it to .mac the audio content does not seem to appear and I can't figure any way to play it. Hmm, am I doing something stupid?
Thanks for your patience.

My father was having the same problem, then I realized, when I looked at my website, I too was having the same problem. I'm guessing there was a glitch in the last update that needs to be resolved. Call Apple .Mac support or regular support. They need to be made aware of the problem by as many people as possible so they can know this is happening for many of us. The problem is that iWeb is (for some reaons or another) changing the extention of the audio poscast from .mp4 to .mov. Because of the scripts that are running, and the conficint extentions, the podcasts don't work. If, however, you view the RSS feed of your podcast, the audio should load just fine. This is weird. Apple, please help!!!

IWeb not uploading one of three .jpg images?

I am updating my web page, and I have 3 jpg files that are part of the page. The first and third upload fine, but the second refuses to upload. I either get a "File Format is Invalid" message, or a message stating that "img_0031 could not be uploaded because the disk may be corrupted, or full" or something along those lines. I am extremely confused.
Thanks!

One thing to try : instead of using 'process multiple files', can you use the 'export' feature in the Organizer to export the jpegs of that category in psd format into a new folder ?

Why doesn't iPhoto '11 upload the correct photo to flickr?

Issue 1: I'm experience a very bizarre behavior in iPhoto '11 where when I try to upload my photos that I have edited using the iPhoto tools (enhancements, levels, effects, etc), it won't upload the edited photo (or the preview version using their terminology) to Flickr.
This is not a universally occuring issue either. For example, if I use the effect 'antique' it will upload the correctly edited 'preview' version of the image. Alternatively, if I upload one with the effect 'boost', it will not upload the correctly edited preview version of the image. Sometimes the opposite will happen as well, its incredibly frustrating.
I'm uploading to Flickr the actual size images.
Issue 2: If I try to upload a single image to Flickr after batch uploading items (as a way to troubleshoot the issue above), it will upload an image that is in the same album, but five photos earlier! What is this? Is there any way to get some clarity on the bugs occuring with iPhoto's uploading procedures? It's quite useless for all their talk about integrated photo sharing options...

In testing this out further, it appears the the primary issue is that the edits (effects, enhancements, etc) are not persisting in this image. For example, in the album view, it looks edited; if I click 'edit', I see the changes that were made to the photo and the edited image. However, if I click 'info', all the changes are undone and it does not look enhanced whatsoever.
Furthermore, if I 'export' the photo it doesn't include the changes that I have made on this photo. In essence, it seems that if I add more than one effect (in this particular case, it has 3 effects on the image), it is unable to process these for exporting/uplading/sharing purposes.
This is primarily something I've found in response to Issue 1 above.
See the screen shots here:
In the Album viewer:
When 'edit' is clicked:
When 'info' is chosen:

Start site is not uploaded correctly. html is missing. What can I do?

Hallo,
I am searching for a new web host and created my site with Iweb.
Unfortunately I cannot upload it correctly to the testing site. Pictures and the blog are all right. But the start site with its links is missing.
Apparently it is an Iweb fault. What can I do?
thanks for your help. My testing site is running out tomorrow:

The method for uploading files using the iWeb FTP is shown here...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/Publish-Website.html
This uploads the external index.html and a folder containing the rest of the website files which has the same name as the site name in iWeb (the one at the top of the left column in the iWeb window). The URL to any page of your site is...
http://www.domain-name/website-name/page-name.html
Entering domain-name.com into the browser should take you to the Home page.
Uploading files using this method, its not possible for files to be mislaid or corrupted so the problem would appear to be on the server.
The other method of publishing requires that you publish to a local folder and upload the files inside the main folder and this is shown here...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/URLs-Favicons.html
Using this method its possible to miss out some files which would cause the site to not load properly.
Uploading via Ftp is discussed here...

IWeb publishes updates but does not upload in the FTP

HELP!
I have a 'tried-tested-true' website that's been on the internet for 10 years. It's been updated over the years but needed much more as of today.
The updates perfectly publish within iWeb [3.0.4]. The FTP uploads the site, but when I check it on the internet [Safari 6.2.3], the former version appears.
I proceeded to troubleshoot by renaming the website and re-mounting the pages. Also, renaming the pages, but after several attempts of uploading each newer version, all efforts were to no avail. It has taken me a full day without results. That is, the original website remains on the internet, which is very outdated.
I have run out of troubleshooting ideas. All of my other websites have not had this problem. There was an issue this week with the ISP Domain Host services not connecting my site. I contacted them, but have had no response. However, I thought I would try connecting again today in case they sorted out their connectivity issues. I am able to connect to their server. I have good reason to believe the FTP is uploading the updated directory files, but for some reason when it comes to viewing the site on the internet, au contraire.
Not sure if this is an iWeb problem or my ISP domain hosting services having issues with connectivity. Whatever, it is very perplexing to me as to what to do next after the extensive amount of time I have taken troubleshooting.
I repeat myself when I say, 'HELP!'

Okay, I understand what you are referencing. I am publishing my websites to the path of 'Users'-Documents-Website Documents.
Below is a screen shot of the folder my Websites are located. Is this what you are referencing? It is Site 2 that is having issues with uploading to the domain host server of my ISP. All the other sites have been uploaded successively.
I use FileZilla as my FTP server and it has been excellent. I have tried CyberDuck, et al. FZ works perfectly well indicating all that one needs to know while uploading. If my other websites were causing the same issues, then it would mean FTP issues.
However, I believe I am on the same track you are referencing with regards to my published website is in the appropriate location on my HD. I stand to be corrected.
I believe by my contacting the Forum and reading your information that I am following protocol as I have always done with my 4 websites that upload properly. As I continue the discussion, it is becoming evident the issue is with the Domain Host server, which is not a problem to post on this Forum.
However, I posted my issue just in case it was an iWeb issue or my not following protocol correctly to publish a website. From what I am gleaning with your information, I am following protocol. Repeating myself when I say it appears to be the aforementioned server. I have contacted them again about their Domain Host server but no response as yet.
If what I am presenting to you is the correct protocol I have in place at my end, I thank you for taking the time to assist me. By doing so, I believe I will be able to determine it is not an iWeb publishing issue [mostly because all my websites are not experiencing this problem], nor is it the FTP server,FileZilla, but the Domain Host Server.
As mentioned above, here is the folder where my websites are located.
I so appreciate your assistance.

In trying to transfer iWeb pages (not uploaded) to another computer I went into the library and transferred the domain onto the desktop. Disaster! On opening iWeb all previous (uploaded) sites have disappeared. Help!

In trying to transfer iWeb pages (not uploaded) to another computer I went into the Library and transferred the domain onto the desktop. Disaster! On opening iWeb all previous (uploaded) sites have disappeared. On opening the domain all I can recover is the many component parts, and when unzipped the code. Help! Mike

Code in a domain file - really? That is not possible because the domain.sites file does not contain any html or css code at all - the domain file is your iWeb data file and you won't see any code until you publish your website.
If you can see html code, then you have the wrong file and it is a published version of your site which iWeb can do nothing with - iWeb has no import facility so cannot open any html files.
Go back and ensure that you have the correct domain.sites files that can be found under your User Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites and if you have Mavericks then you need to go to Go and press the alt key to reveal your hidden User Library, so that you can then get to Application Support and then iWeb and then your domain.sites file.
You will also need to go and download either DomainCracker or iWebSwitch which allows you to open individual domain files under Mavericks, because from Lion onwards, you cannot open individual domain files.
Also, it says that you are still using iWeb 08? If this is so, you'll either need to upgrade to iWeb 09 by going to Amazon and purchasing the iLife 09 or 11 boxed set, both of which contain iWeb 09 or you need to switch to newer software that is actively being supported and developed such as EverWeb (http://www.everwebapp.com).

Hi mallela1,
I also had similar issue couple of months back when I was trying to access a remote URL from a Windows service when the site does not exists in the server where service resides.
You cannot access a remote url (even though it is SharePoint server and also in same network ) from server object model.
SPSite can look in the current server only. here what is happening is SPSite will look for this in the current server DB and it is not finding this errror.
So please dont use ServerObject model for accessing remote sites. You can use Client Object model for the code /requirement you have stated above.
I wasted lot of time in finding a work around to make to work. It did not. So look for other options.
Regards,
Nandini

How do I get iweb to upload to different family pack accounts?

Hi. sorry if this has been covered before, but I can't find this particular problem anywhere. Also sorry this is going to take a while to explain. We feel we wasted an extra 50 bucks on our family pack for mac.com last year to have accounts we never could find out how to upload from our separate iWeb domain files. We needed 4 different "sub accounts" but we use one mac laptop using one desktop. Calling apple customer service was of no help. We have figured out the way to get iWeb to open different domain2 files was to copy and into each person's file (one for the gardener for their garden stuff, one for the budding chef and his cooking stuff, etc). But no matter what domain file is opened and worked on iWeb always uploads it to our main (original) user name thus erasing the site previously uploaded to it. We can't seem to find out how to change the settings in iWeb so when it uploads particular iWeb projects to Mac.com (or now me.com?) it goes to the sub accounts and not overwriting the main account. Our main account is for the entire household's news/photos etc and we don't link to the others from there. We thought by setting up the family pack we could easily get iweb to send up to the other sub accounts. Not so. We ended up last year just doing all our websites on the same iWeb domain file using "new website" function and adding a complete new website to the bottom of the list on our iWeb pages. All of them would be combined into one which uploaded everything to the main account. Not what we wanted but that was the only way that nothing would get erased by anyone else's updates but also not very private as those near the bottom of the list would have a mac.com address as long as my arm. Sorry so long winded here. But if we can't have two iweb domain files on a desk top upload to two separate mac.com accounts or sub accounts, then why pay the extra for them? Is a family pack only good for families with a computer in every room? Our family pack accounts expires in 10 days so would like to know if we need to waste another 50 bucks. And no, setting up separate desktops for for the sake of individual iWeb projects is not an option as all the files are kept together. We tried that once and got so much duplication in photos and stuff, our hard drive was full in no time.

so you have 45 different users on your one computer? ie: 45 different desktop users or am I still not understanding. To me a "user" you are referring to is what I would go up to the upper right of my toolbar and use the drop down menu and select another name (or in this case another alias of myself) but those additional accounts (users) would all have to be tied into my files on the main account to access them from all users, correct? All my files are on my one main user (myself) and not all of them are in iPhoto or iTunes, for instance any swf files. If I have other iWeb domain files (which I know how to create, duplicate and know about the last one used in iweb etc) then I have to create a separate user name (myself again) in my computer for as many iweb/me.com accounts or sub accounts that I have? But my problem with that is if I copy those domain files and move them into another account/user (which I tried) the link (the stuff at the bottom of the iWeb work window) still says my original Mac.com (me.com) address and will not let me change even when the new "user" has not even logged into Mac.com ever or the second computer is linked to a completely different mac.com account. I would have to start all over from scratch. I am sorry that I am not getting this. I know you are trying hard to explain it to me but it is just a bit too complicated to do a simple task of: I want to create a new iWeb/domain2 file on my own desktop with my own user name and have it go to "here" and not "here" within the me.com environment. I have actually copied and moved over 20 domain and domain2 files between our two macs to work on them, but each time the same connection indicated at the bottom is always the same and they will all upload to the master account at Mac I am referring to thus deleting anything we uploaded before no matter which computer they are located on. Once that domain file is created it is locked into that Mobileme account no matter what. So it has been easier to simply save to folders and purchase hosting from someone else than try to figure out what I am doing wrong with mac and me. (me, not myself)

Files for iWeb not showing in a reinstall of Application

My hard drive crashed, and Time Machine has apparently not been working correctly under Mountain Lion. None of the Applications were backed up, and so I have to reinstall all apps.
I use iWeb and for ease of finding all the sites so I can upload them to my host, moved them to a folder in the Documents folder that i call Websites-iWeb
That I did recover.
But now I am reinstaling my iLife 09 and when I start iWeb it can not find my sites. What can i do?

The file you need to use with iWeb is a file named Domain.sites2 (iWeb 3) and by default is located in your Users/~/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder.
If you do not have a backup copy of that file you'll have to rebuild your website from scratch. Chapter 2.3 on the iWeb FAQ.org site has tips on using some of the existing files, image, audio, video, etc., from the published site in the creation of the new site.

Why is my updated blog page not uploading?

I am having a problem getting my new entry updated blog page to upload to my website. Is there a step I'm not doing and cannot find an answer in the "help" section or in here. I have done it before with ease. I have my upload ftp info all filled out correctly. I am not using a 3rd party app. Is there something I am to delete before the newer page is uploaded? Can't figure this out.

How do you know it's not uploading? If iWeb indicates that it has uploaded all files and it's not showing it could be as simple as clearing your browser's cache (Command+Option+E for Safari) and reloading the page.

Imovie 11 not uploading to youtube

Edit a video in iMovie 11, as I have always done. Current upload to YOUTUBE continues to lose connection to server. My internet connection is running correctly. I have uploaded videos directly to youtube via the site with no problems to test if there was a connection to server issue as well.
I tried to upload video to via the youtube site and it stops uploading around 60%. Mind you I DID upload this same video 3 days ago after trying 13 times via the youtube site. I had to take it down because I accidently allowed youtube to do one of the "fixes" to my videdo and it ruined it and I was able to unapply it.
So 3 days later my video will NOT upload via iMovie 11 or directly from the site.
The file is only 312.1 MB and the format is .mov
So not sure why I am having issues.

I think this may be the quickest workaround:
Go to Share Menu > Export Movie... (set it to 720p) and save it to the Desktop
Open the YouTube website in your favorite web browser, login to your account.
Go to the YouTube upload page, and have it upload the video fromo your Desktop
The beauty of this versus the iMovie upload is the status messages are a little more reassuring as it progresses. I always feel like I know how much longer I need to wait. And then at the end it gives you the URL to see the video after it post-processes the whole thing. So publishing direct, will get around this problem.
As for the problem, itself. I've ready many people's posts to the iMovie Discussion group with a similar YouTube upload from iMovie problem. No one to my recollection has written back with a description of a fix for this. Some people couldn't login to YouTube at all through iMovie it wouldn't accept their credentials. That was fixed by using the correct username for the YouTube account after Google took them over (some people had a username, other used an email address for their username). It sounds more like the upload is failing than the username and password not being accepted. So I would just do the workaround unless you wanted to test iMovie again in the future to see if it suddenly starts working again.

IMovie will not upload to Vimeo

I use iMovie to upload to YouTube all the time and it has always worked great. I noticed that the new version of iMovie has the ability also to upload to Vimeo. I have a Vimeo account so I chose the upload to Vimeo option and entered in my password, but nothing happened. IMovie didn’t give me either a progress bar or an error message. It just didn’t do anything. I checked my password to make sure it is correct. I do not understand why iMovie will not upload to Vimeo. How do I fix this?

I had the same problem. Looks like iMovie doesn't give any feedback when the login to Vimeo fails.
The most likely problem is that your "vimeo user account name" is *not* your full name (say "Marc-André Lafortune"), but your "shortcut url" (in my case "malafortune"). You can set this in vimeo by using this link: http://vimeo.com/settings/shortcut
This is what you must enter when you setup your account in iMovie. If that is correct and your password is good too, you will see a progress bar after the login is successful (2-3 seconds).
HTH
If anyone from Apple is reading this: iMovie should be fixed by
1) giving feedback when login fails
2) ideally change "user account name" for "shortcut URL" or similar, with a popup like "what is this?"
3) only accept the characters that are accepted by Vimeo for the shortcut URL (letters and numbers, no spaces, etc...)

Index.htm will NOT upload . . . desperate : /

This is my own site which I've run for 3 years. Same
computer, same program, didn't touch site set up, firewalls or
anything. This morning I make a few quick text changes to the
homepage and the file will not upload. It has in fact wiped out my
entire homepage because once it did kind of upload but some "files
were skipped during the operation". Yeah. Some files. Like, all of
them. (
http://www.ExchangeHJ.com)
The error is "no response from server" However, I created
this file:
http://www.exchangehj.com/test.html
and it uploaded just fine.
I can also connect to other sites on different servers and
upload fine.
It appears to be just index.htm. I have tried to change the
name to default.html, still will not upload
(Made switch to CS3 last year so all newer files are html and
old files are htm, has never caused a problem as long as the links
are right everywhere)
Please, any ideas? This is a online company web site, a blank
homepage is not okay. And it's killing my saturday . . . I just
wanted to post a quick note to the site :(
The rest of the site is still there:
http://www.exchangehj.com/equineMarketing.htm
If you try to go to home page from there you get Page Not
Found (it calls specifically for index.htm)
If you just type site url it come up blank.
help. thank you.
