Using MobileMe to save my domain

thought I posted this ?, maybe not. I maintain two iWeb sites and they each have mobile me accounts. On the one I work on daily web.mac.com/monmouthboatclub, I'd like to save it to my mobileme "site" and then download and work on it from any computer.... now I save on a removable HD and bring it with me.
2nd question. Anyway I can work on both my sites and upload without having to go to preferences and change how I am signed into to mobile me?

First saving the domain file on the iDisk can be done but would take a while to upload and download as it gets larger. Unless you have a good transfer client like Transmit which uses WebDAV the transfer via the Finder could get excruciatingly slow. Personally, using a flash drive to operate from would be my preferred method. It would save uploading after every edit and then downloading to edit when you change computers. You can reformat flash drives to OS X Extended (journaled) to operate on it just like an external HD. Just rename each domain file to identify the site and then open the one you want on the flash drive by double clicking on it.
The second question: yes, you have to be signed into the particular account for the site you want to upload. You can create a second user account on each Mac for one of the two sites and have it logged into the appropriate MobileMe account. With fast user switching enabled it's a simple thing to switch accounts and publish the other site.
You do know that you can have multiple sites in one MobileMe account. Their URL would be:
http://web.me.com/yourMMe_Account_Name/sitename/
And if you purchase a domain name for the sites you can have just the domain name show in the browser's URL window when visiting the site if you want .

  • Using MobileMe with my Homestead Domain

    OK. So, I created a website using Homestead and their sitebuilder. It was satisfied with it and I got ym domain name through them. Then, when I tried doing anything advanced, I couldn't, because Homstead doesn't support Apple products. So, I decided to use my iWeb 08 account and create a website. Since my old .Mac account was expired, I reregistered for a MobileMe account.
    I have switched my service with Homestead toa domain only account, since they are the registrar for my domain (www.StevenTylorOConnor.com). I have changed my CNAME within Homestead so that when someone goes to my website, they should be automatically redirected to my new MobileMe website which I have published.
    Here is the problem. Everytime you go to my website, it asks for my username and passoword to access my iDisk. I don't understand this. How can I make sure that my iWeb website pops up under my domain?

    This has nothing whatsoever to do with how you have set up your CNAME forwarding.
    You must have the security/privacy feature enabled in iWeb - this is the only reason that this happens in a site. Go back into iWeb and open the Inspector and I think, click on the MME symbol and then uncheck the box that has keep site private and then re-publish your site to MME and it should work.
    TO SET UP CNAME FORWARDING
    1. Enter your domain name into the personal domain name settings at MME.
    2. Go to the DNS settings at your domain name registrar and click to set up a new CNAME. Enter your domain name as the alias and then web.me.com as the host and it should be up and running within 24 hours.

  • Will I still be able use mobileme iweb domain forwarding in icloud ?

    Will I still be able use mobileme iweb domain forwarding in icloud ?
    I have dozens of iweb sites hosted on mobileme pointing to www domais using web masking .
    Will this also be a possibility with icloud ?
    Also is iweb finished ?

    At the moment it seem probably not, so you had better look for alternative hosting with GoDaddy or HostExcellence.
    Also, remember that iWeb is a package that is used for building websites, no more and no less, so if you still have iWeb on your Mac then you can still use it whether or not you have MobileMe or not - iWeb can still be used - if it exists then you can use it but rather look for an alternative host.

  • Publishing iWeb site using MobileMe

    I created a new website using iWeb, set up the CNAME alias, and published it using MobileMe. iWeb indicates the website has been published. When I go to the website, I get an error message:
    Directory Listing Denied
    This virtual directory does not allow contents to be listed.
    Help!?

    I followed the thread and performed the activities to test the site. I too was able to see the site. When I looked at the URL for the actual site, it still shows mac, not mobileme. Is this part of the problem?
    http://web.mac.com/ccgaler/TProcurementSolutions/Home.html
    I'm using Netfirms for the domain name, it was all fine until I used the "Masking" feature. When I selected the "On" radio button, I lost all my graphics and the navigation bar on my site. Now I'm not sure if I have to start from scratch, or if that would make a difference.
    Thanks!

  • IWeb without using mobileme??

    can i create a website and later get a domain name and publish the site i created in iWeb without using mobileme or anything like that?? sorry, new to all this and don't want to get going and realize i need a mobileme account

    To add to Roddy's post - these are the features that will be lost by not hosting on MobileMe:
    Features Unavailable When Publishing to a Non-Mac Server:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Blog RSS Subscription
    ◼ Hit counter
    ◼ Enhanced slideshows
    Most can be overcome on the 3rd party server except for the Enhanced slideshows. Don't ask me what that is because I've not been able to find out (I use MMe). You can use a good, strong 3rd party blogging service and embed your blog site in one of your site's pages: Embed a Site Within an iWeb Page. For password protection most commercial hosting services offer that feature, for either the whole site or individual pages.

  • Have to use Mobileme?

    Do have to use mobileme when we publish online? I don't want to use a service by apple which requires me to throw down another 100$ for basic server space.

    Try GoDaddy or Network Solutions. They offer domain names and web hosting packages too. Just remember to choose Linux instead of Windows.
    In the UK, Daily or 123-Reg seem to be reasonable, but I think you can still use GoDaddy even if you are in the UK.

  • How do I publish my site without using MobileMe?

    I have been publishing an iWeb designed website to my own domain name for more than a year without using MobileMe.
    Had a computer repair done and Apple did a clean install. I am now rebuilding the site because my files don't talk to iWeb after reinstalling the software. Yes, I had everything backed up three different ways, including TimeMachine, but the external drive died at the same time as my laptop.
    Now I can't figure out how to just use my ftp to publish. Every time I try, it wants me to use MobileMe. I don't want to use MobileMe. How do I get to an option to just enter my URL and publish the site?
    Previous versions of iWeb 09 gave me a screen to put in my URL, but not the latest permutation of iWeb 09. Help!

    Greetings,
    Sorry to hear about the loss of data. Multiple backups are a good idea. I burn my iWeb domain file to a CD (along with my calendars and addressbook) once a month as well as maintain a Time Machine backup. I use MobileMe's backup program to trigger these backups, however if you are not a MobileMe member you can search online for other backup programs that can do this for you on a regular basis.
    You can input your FTP host settings by following the steps in the iWeb help menu under "FTP": http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iWeb/3.0/en/6838.html
    Hope that helps.

  • All day events sync as two day events on iPhone (using MobileMe)

    After starting to use MobileMe to sync calendars and contacts, I've started to have an issue with events that are marked "all day". As far as I can tell, regular timed events seem to sync correctly, but my "all day" events get put on the iPhone as two day events. I thought it might be a DST issue, but when I look at the details of the event it looks as though it's actually changing it to a two day event.
    For example, someone's birthday in iCal desktop app will have the details:
    all day
    from: July 3
    to: July 3
    But on my iPhone it gets synced as:
    all day
    from: July 3
    to: July 4
    What makes this even more weird, is that when I log onto me.com, and look at the iCal web app, my "all day" events are all one day early. For the examply above, the event will appear on July 2.
    This has really got me puzzled...anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Kenton

    Same issue with me almost exactly...but the all-day events on MobileMe and on my laptop iCal are actually on the correct day rather than the day earlier as you describe. Only the iPhone is out of whack compared to MobileMe and iCal.
    I tried syncing with iTunes and when that didn't display my all-day events correctly, I sync'd over the air by turning on MobileMe Calendar push. Both ended up with many all-day events spanning 2 consecutive days. However, not all the all-day events were incorrect, but several were. I haven't been able to establish a pattern.
    I am using an iPhone 8G 3G, my G4 Powerbook 12" running 10.4.11, and a MobileMe account.
    I spent a hour or two on the Apple site speaking with tech support over live internet chat. I was told there were lots and lots of sync issues going on and the tech was unable to solve my issue. He mentioned casually that many of the sync problems were occurring on systems running 10.4.11.
    It would be encouraging to learn if this bug that puts all-day events across two consecutive days only on the iPhone (but not on MobileMe or iCal application) is happening to others out there.
    Any others out there?

  • ICal duplicated on iphone and itunes but not on laptop... (not using Mobileme)

    I recently got a new laptop and exported my calendars from my old laptop to new.
    I then synced my iphone via itunes which resulted in all calendars being duplicated!
    The calendars on my laptop are not duplicated.
    The calendars on my itunes sync and iphone are duplicated.
    I do not use Mobileme or Entourage.
    I can't seem to get them to sync, but I can clear them off the iphone (by replacing info on phone during sync). However they still remain on the itunes sync.
    Can anyone help? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you.

  • How to edit bitmap which is imported in flash using xml and save the edited bitmap back to xml in flash.

    hi all
    It would be appreciated if any one let me know how to edit
    bitmap which is imported in flash using xml and save the edited
    bitmap back to xml in flash.
    Is it posible to save the bitmap data in flash?
    thanks in advance

    Yes you can... but like I said before you need to upload the
    data from the changes you make to a server.
    In terms of the solution... its unlikely that you'll find one
    specifically for your needs. You will have to learn whatever you
    don't know how already and maybe adapt some existing examples to
    your needs.
    To change the visual state of a movie clip... you just do all
    the regular things that you want to do to it using flash... scale,
    rotation, drawing API , textfields etc in actionscript. If you
    don't know how to how to do that stuff, then you need to learn that
    first. That's basic actionscript.
    You can capture the visual state of a movieclip using the
    BitmapData class. That includes a loaded jpeg. You can also
    manipulate bimatp data using the same class. You should read up on
    that if you don't know how to use it or check out the examples
    below for uploading info.
    For uploading to the server:
    Here's an as2 solution that took 15 secs to find using
    google:
    http://www.quasimondo.com/archives/000645.php
    If you're using as3, google search for "jpeg encoder as3" and
    look through that info. There are also historical answers in the
    forums here related to this type of thing that might help as
    well.

  • Can i use icloud to save changes to logic 9 projects on different macs?

    hi peops, can i use icloud to save projects on logic 9? I use an imac at home but use my macbook pro away from home. everything is duplicated but find it a pain consolidating and have forgotten sometimes to updat a project on 1 machine or the other. iCloud seems a great way of doing what i want where ever I want
    thanks in advance

    Logic isn't compatible with iCloud, so you have to save files on both computers
