2 Site in one .mac account

Can iWeb publish 2 sites in one .mac account?
Example:
Site 1
http://web.mac.com/myaccount/iWeb/Site/Welcome.html
Site 2
http://web.mac.com/myaccount/iWeb/Site2/Welcome.html (protected with password)
Can anyone advise me? Thanks

How do you keep the two sites seperate?
Do you have two Domain.sites files?
If you have them in seperate folders, see this thread:

Is it possible to have 2 iWeb sites with one .mac account?

I am trying to create a business site with my CV (resume) and work credentials as well as a personal site with photos etc for family and friends. Is this possible to do with iWeb?

To keep sites totally separate for publishing you
need to keep their data files totally separate,
either by switching them in and out or by running
iWeb from separate user accounts. The data file is
located at
Users/username/Library/Application
Support/iWeb/Domain
thank you -- that's gonna have to be the answer I guess, til they hopefully add a new feature.. my non-.mac site is for my kids' swim team, so I'll just create a 'swim team' user account for now. Not TOO inconvenient, I don't suppose.
If you have two sites in the same data file already
you can separate them by making a copy of the current
Domain, then deleting one site from the current
Domain, putting that somewhere safe, inserting the
old Domain copy, and deleting the other site from
that, giving you two Domains each with one site.
keeping my fingers crossed that this works.
thanks again,
Jo

Multiple Sites, Multiple Domains, one .mac account?

So, is this possible? Can you create multiple sites in iWeb, save them to a .mac account, and then purchase domain names for each of those sites and have one assigned to each? I'm assuming no, but I'm seeing if someone knows how or someone has some workaround to keep it on .mac, but have multiple domain names for my sites?
Thanks!!

So, is this possible?
No.

Yes and no. While .Mac does offer Domain name hosting in the form of a CNAME alias, only one Domain name is available per .Mac account. .Mac is not a registrar for multiple Domains. You can host multiple sites on your .Mac account, but if you desire a 'Domain name' for each site, you will need to purchase the Domains from a registrar like Yahoo, GoDaddy, 1&1, etc, and then forward these Domains to the appropriate sites, hosted on your .Mac account.
I'm assuming no, but I'm seeing if someone knows how or someone has some workaround to keep it on .mac, but have multiple domain names for my sites?
The "workaround" would be to utilize Domain forwarding from a Domain name registrar, using the .Mac urls for the forwarding address(es).

One .Mac account, 2 iWeb Sites, 2 Computers.

Ok, I know a lot of questions have been asked about how to manage multiple sites, but I can't seem to find any information about 2 people sharing one .Mac account.
My husband and I share a .Mac account. We each have our own Apple laptops. We each want our own iWeb site.
Everytime I create a site, it takes over the one that he already created from HIS computer, and vice versa.
There doesn't seem to be a way for both of us to have our own sites on one account from 2 separate computers. SO FRUSTRATING.
Any help would be great, and try to leave as much technical jargon out of it. I'm a self-proclaimed idiot when it comes to computers.
Thanks, everyone.

Neisha,
Another way to achieve what mp is talking about is for you and your husband to each create a one page "site" in iWeb and move it to the top of your site organizer. Put links (image or text) on that page to direct those who visit your short url to the correct site. I would recommend that you each have slightly different names for this site and page.
You can see an example of what I'm talking about http://web.mac.com/hoovmoss/iWeb/" target="_blank">here.
If you plan on building additional sites and splitting the domain files on one or more of the laptops to do it, though, you are probably better off using the method that mp suggested above.
I've been keeping a sites index "site" at the top of each domain file (I have one for each site on the index page), but I'm beginning to find that inconvenient, as I plan on adding at least one more site. Someday soon I'll create a domain file containing only a sites index and then manually replace the index.html file in my idisk as necessary to keep the site index linked to my short url.
If this is more confusing than helpful, let me know and I'll see if I can be a little clearer.

Multiple users on computer - one .mac account

ok, I've seen other posts addressing similar issues, but not this specific one:
I have two users on my computer and one .Mac account. I would like each user to be able to edit and post to the same website using iWeb.
I thought that I could move the Domains.sites file to a shared location, but I can find no way of pointing iWeb to that location and then remembering that location later.
any thoughts??

This might not be the right way but since I was having similar issues today, this something that worked.
I placed the domain.site file on my time capsule and the Imac which I created the pages with remembered the site.
On my mac mini I can access the site it if I open the domain.site file directly using the finder and it will then open iweb on my mac mini. If I open iweb directly, it seems to remember previous iweb sites that I created but not the current one.
Hope this helps.
If anyone else has another way please let us know.

Best way to publish multiple sites without a .mac account?

Hi, all you mac geniuses out there!
So, I have a mac and a .mac membership and iweb. I use and love all of them. I also have a business in which I am about to incorporate the service of designing websites for various individuals. I would love to be able to use iweb for this. However, I can't put it all on my .mac account. So, my questions are the following:
1. Do I charge people extra and buy them a .mac account so they have their own idisk even though they won't need the e-mail and other .mac features?
2. Can I create a website for them on iweb, buy a domain name for them through godaddy or somewhere, publish to a folder, and then upload to a separate hosting space (like through godaddy or somewhere)? And if that's the case, what is the best (and easiest) place to host a site and how exactly does one go about uploading the site once it's published to a folder? Will it still look like the iweb layout?
3. Any better suggestions?
Thanks!
Lisa

1. Do I charge people extra and buy them a .mac
account so they have their own idisk even though they
won't need the e-mail and other .mac features?
I don't think this would be necessary...
2. Can I create a website for them on iweb, buy a
domain name for them through godaddy or somewhere,
publish to a folder, and then upload to a separate
hosting space...
Yes. The best thing for you to do would be to get familiar with a program called "iWebSites" ( http://mistergregg.com/cocoadrillosoftware/ ). I'm sure you don't want your personal .Mac website to be mixed in with your client websites. In addition, you will appreciate the ability to be able to publish your various websites INDEPENDENTLY of one another, so that you only publish your personal site to your .Mac account and your client sites individually as needed. iWebSites helps you to create separate Domain files for iWeb so that each website can "live" in its own space and be edited and published separate from every other site.
But yes, as far as your client websites go, prepare for a new site with iWebSites, design the site in iWeb, then "Publish to Folder" and then register and upload to the appropriate domain name server directory. I think this would be a slick way to run your business....full service, right?
Let me know if you have any other questions.

Create on 2 different Macs with one .mac account different websides

I have 2 Macs at different places, I have one .mac-account and I liked to create and publish websides independently on both Macs (for example: I have all my regular websides on my Mac at home, but when I am in my weekend-house, I liked eventually to take some pictures concerning a problem which just arouse, publish it on a quickly created webside and call a friend, so that he is able to have a look at this new webside and give me a comment).
Is it possible to do this without erasing my regular websides that I had already published on my home-Mac ?

I think it should work fine, as long as you give the sites different names.

One mac account, two computers

I have one mac account and two computers. When I get up in the morning, I check my email. When I come to the office I recheck my email.
With my pop account through my ISP, my mail downloads at both places.
With my mac account, once I view it at home, I cannot see it at the office. Is there a way to resolve this issue.
What am I doing wrong?
SJ

it's IMAP. then it really should show the same messages on both computers. you can try rebuilding the mobileme inbox (mailbox menu->rebuild). but mobileme is a weird animal and is handled separately from all other accounts in Mail. I don't use mobileme so can't comment further on this, sorry. maybe somebody else who does can chime in or you could try the mobileme forum.

Can I photocast to more than one .Mac account?

Is there a way for me to choose which .Mac I'd like to photocast to from iPhoto? I have more than one .Mac account and would like to share different albums to different .Mac accounts.

I believe that iPhoto uses the account which you have entered in the .Mac section of the System Preferences
In order to make iPhoto use the other account it seems like you will need to change the details in the .Mac Preferences

One .mac account, 4 computers - does screen sharing work?

Hi there,
I have one .mac account, however I have multiple computers running Leopard at home. Is it possible to have multiple ichat accounts on one single .mac account? Or do I have to get a .mac account for each computer of the household in order to be able to have them as separate entities on my contact list and therefore share the screen?
If it's possible with one .mac account, how would I have to set up my machines?
Thanks for information,
Christoph

Hi Tony,
I am trying to access one of the machines from the outside. (I've installed a port forwarding accordingly). Would that mean I'd have to setup a VPN?

Two apple TVs, one Mac account

I have two ATVs in two separate houses but one mac account. if i buy content on one ATV, i do not seem to be able to see it on the other. I am guessing this is not allowed which is annoying but typical. However, if i buy on ATV - can i see that same content on my laptop (i seem to be able) and iphone (does not seem to be there)??
What are the rules? Or have i made an error?
for reference, the content i bought is a TV series so i keep getting the updates on my itunes account but not the ATV nor iphone (which connects to the laptop).

Niel, thanks for your reply. i cannot get your thread to open, i will try again later. I see it as http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1860 so let me know if not.
I have sync'd the ATV though I think (will confirm when i can load that page). I get the content I bought on my itunes account. So, I bought/ordered the TV show on ATV and it automatically downloads on my itunes account (i have actually stopped that now as i would prefer to get it on the ATV if i must choose). Once on my itunes on my PC i can see it on my sync'd iPhone but not on the ATV.
I would have thought that (ideally) it just comes up in "my tv shows" but, if necessary, i would have to buy it again and when i tried, it just gives me the message like on "applications" that says "you have already bought this, do you want to download it again". However, it does not, i need to buy it again.
I understand copyright issues but i would have thought that, as a minimum, i should be able to share purchased content like music, across five different machines.
Maybe this is will all be resolved once i can load that link you gave me - will keep trying.
thanks, jon.

Move a site from one Mac to another without losing sites already there

I would like to move a site from one Mac to another without losing the websites that I have already built on the other Mac. Transfering the Domain file is not helping. Is there away to open the new domain file and adding those sites to the domain file associated with this copy of iWeb? I have searched the discussions but am not seeing any clear answers. They all seam to invilve new users or losing the sites already on that mac.

I seem to have solved my own problem. This may help other users. I found a tip and a web page that suggested moving the Domain File from the application support folder to another on the desktop on one of the computers and then putting the 2nd Domain File from the other computer in a separate folder on the desktop. This is because you can not change the name of the Domain File . Then by double clicking the Domain File with the site wanted, iWeb opens with that set of sites.
I started with what was to be the new master Domain File and stated a new site with a blank page. saved, did not publish and closed iWeb. Opened from the other Domain File and then clicked and opened the site and page I wanted, then selected all, copied all and closed iweb. Went back to the master Domain File , opened iWeb using that, went to the blank page and pasted in the page from the other Domain File from the other computer. Saved, closed iWeb and repeated till I had all pages. Changed the names to match the sites and Pages. I did not allow iWeb to publish during this process. Took all of 10 minutes and I now have a Domain File with all the sites in one place. I then copied this file back into its original location in Library/application support/iWeb on both computers. I now have all sites in iWeb on both computers.

Can you host more than one site on one webBasic account?

Can you host more than one site on one webBasic account?

Hi,
Basically not how this was intended for.
You'll have the option to have a partner account which you can create various sites within your portal where each site will be under its own plan.
Or you'll have an existing account which is designed for one site. So I would say ideally no but you could add multiple domains to a site account under one plan, but then you'll need to share the same account (meaning one shop, one set of system messages, layout, etc).
Those are the options at this stage.
Hope this helps!

Ichat with one .mac account

My wife and I have one .mac account. Can we both use ichat at the same time to talk to each other or do we need two seperate accounts.

2hooks
You do need 2 accounts, but you can either get a free AIM screen-name or a free .mac account (a free-trial account will still work for chatting after the trial period).

Trouble Viewing iWeb site on dot Mac account

I have a home office and I also have a studio. When I am at home working, I have no trouble viewing photo pages on my dot mac account from either Safari or Firefox.
When I am at my studio, however, I cannot browse my photo pages on Safari nor with Firefox.
Safari gives me the "server stopped responding" error and Firefox displays "the server timed out".
So, what's up with this?
At the home office, I use wireless DSL access with a MacBook. At my studio, I'm using an iMac wirelessly on my network. The the service provided is through Comcast broadband cable modem.
On both machines, I have iLife & iWork 08. I do not sync my dot mac account with the 2 machines. The original files for the photo pages reside on my studio iMac.
So why can I browse my way through my photo pages when I'm surfing the web from my home office, but am unable to see them when I'm working at my studio?
Thanks for assisting me if you can.

I will when I go back to my studio. I'm just trying to understand where you are going with this. I have contractors who work in and out of my studio with their laptops. They use XP & Vista and they have absolutely NO problem what so ever accessing my photo pages. In fact, when I couldn't access from my iMac, I had one of them check to see if the site was down. They could see my pages just fine with no problem. So...if they can reach them using the same network while sitting at the desk next to mine...why can't my iMac reach the pages?
Thanks.
