2 versions of iweb

Just out of curiousity - can I use iWeb 08 on my Tiger bootable hard drive to create a web site, let's say, www.tigerwebsite.com and then use iWeb 09 on Leopard to create a web site called www.leopard website.com without one overriding the other?

Since Apple is no longer providing MobileMe, and since my version of iWeb only has the option of publishing to mobile me (the "upgrade" eleviated the "publish to folder" option), how do I publish my web page to a remote host?

I used to have an amazing home page that I used with my students:
http://hansen.osd.wednet.edu/media/hansen/msamson/MrSamsonHome/Home.html
The school district "UPGRADED" to the new operating system. iWeb, which I have been using for years, no longer supports my ability to publish to the district server. Apple thought it wise to force us to use MobileMe. Furthermore, Apple decided that MoblieMe is no longer unavailable. To add insult to injury, the new version of iWeb doesn't even have a "save to folder" option any more. In other words, I can no longer use iWeb.
Am I totally screwed?
Is there another way to publish my site?
Will Apple make me purchase yet another "upgrade"?
Is this a total rip off?
Mr. Samson
ps. As a loyal Apple customer (since 1982), I find these antics very frustrating.

I suggest you upgrade to the latest iWeb version while copies are still availalbe: iLife '11 - Apple Store (U.S.). That's because it's now confirmed that iWeb and iDVD have been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. HOWEVER, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
◼ MobileMe Gallery
All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken. If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows. Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.

However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone. How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
In addition the iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on.
HOWEVER, the iLife 11 boxed version that is still currently available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those copies still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD.

How do I republishing an old site, from an older version of iWeb?

Ok. I had an Old site that I want to continue. I created it on an older version of iWeb. Is there anyway to salvage that site or do I just have to do it over?

As often discussed in this forum, you'll need the domain.sites2 file iWeb uses to store its assets.
If that file is missing, or not available from a backup, you'll have to start from scratch, meaning : Copy/Paste text and images (you can drag them) from the published pages.
Small consolation, if you carefully copy text from the webpage in the browser window, iWeb will retain the formatting when you do Command-V (= paste). The textbox is automagically created.
And no, iWeb cannot import or open HTML files.

Publishing an iWeb site with a newer version of iWeb.

I recently upgraded my MacBook to a Mac book pro running snow leopard an iWeb 09. I built my website with the old MacBook and an older version of iWeb. I had no trouble moving to and loading it on the new laptop but cannot get it to publish changes. It always comes up as "unknown error." I tried publishing to folder and got the same error. I did some searching and so far the only thing I have come up with is the possibility that it won't publish because I am not using the same version of iWeb. Is that correct? Any advice? Thanks.

Have a look at the troubleshooting steps under "Fix iWeb" here.....

How do I reinstall iWeb 3.0.3? I inadvertently opened an html file of my website and tried to open it with iWeb '09. I get a message saying "Can't open file" etc., etc. I've tried reinstalling the updated version. Iweb will not open.

Delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder. Then launch iWeb and see if it opens.
What happened was trying to open the html file reset the file path that iWeb saves in its preference file to tell it where to go when you launch iWeb. Deleting the pref file and launching iWeb creates a new file and iWeb looks in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder for the Domain.sites2 file it uses to create your site.

iWeb and iDVD should be listed in small, gray test on the outside of the box. The following may be of help for continued use of iWeb:

Apple has announced that iLife is now an unsupported product and those iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on. However, there may be some copies of the boxed iLife 11 still on the shelves that would include iWeb and iDVD. Those two apps were listed in small, gray text on the iLife 11 box that I bought. Personally, if I already didn't have a copy I would purchase one to have it for reinstallation purposes if ever needed.

New version of iWeb does not display photo thumbnails in media panel

Thats about it. Just upgraded to latest version of iWeb 1.1.1 and now no thumbnails are displayed in media panel. Rich

Well, how do you think I guessed that was the problem?!! I had spent a frustrated 2 hours cursing iWeb until I realised what was going on...
It's always good when the fix is a simple one!

Back UP Old Version of iWeb and all Domain Files FIRST

** Originally posted in the other iWeb forum **
I know this is a tired theme, but since iWeb was updated today to version 2.0, I want to make sure that people understand they can, and should, retain their original installation of iWeb 1.1.2 if they're using third-party templates. Just copy it to a safe place - somewhere other than your Applications folder. This way you can still use it along with 2.0.
Why?
If you're using a theme that was NOT created by Apple, you'll need it. iWeb 2.0 has changed dramatically and no third-party template will work in 2.0. They're all DOA.
DO NOT open your site in 2.0 if it uses a non-Apple template. If you do that, and you update it to 2.0, you'll never be able to edit it again in 1.1.2, you won't be able to add pages, etc, because the template doesn't exist for that version.
I have another thread going with more details but I did not want this information to get lost in that thread. Please be wise and read everything and then back up your stuff before upgrading and playing with the new version. It will save you endless suffering if you do.
I will post updates on this situation at my 11Mystics site as well. As soon as we know if it's possible to convert the themes or regenerate them, I'll let you know.

Can a Domain.sites iWeb file be transferred into the new version of iWeb?

So I have my Domain.sites file from my old computer (Home, Library, Application Support, iWeb), but I can't get it to open on my new computer. I assume this is because it is a domain.sites file, and the new version requires domain.sites2? How can I get my old site to transfer to my new computer or convert the file, etc.?
I've looked over a lot of postings, but I can't figure out what I should do once I have the Domain.sites file, and I've put it in the same place on my new computer but I get the message: "Can't Open File."
Thanks for any help...

How to create a mobile version of iWeb

I need to convert my iWeb website to a mobile version, what is the easiest way to do this? What software or program should I use? I was told that creating a Wordpress Page is the simplest way

Thanks for your patience and assistance.
I have been putting crusadeforjustice.com and my iPod touch and my friend's iPhone 4 and other friends' blackberry's all say that the site doesn't exist. My friend downloaded iCab for his iPhone 4 and he was able to get it to work. iCab allows you to change the browser ID to whatever you want, such as Safari for Mac (mobile version and non mobile version), Firefox, IE, etc... He changed it to Safari Mac and the site displays just as your picture illustrates. Then he changed it back to Safari Mobile and that's when the error message appears. But it seems you cannot change the browser id on the default Safari Mobile app, which is what most people use. So I gather Safari Mobile will attempt to load a mobile version of any given site? It's odd... Will recreating the site usiing Flux help solve this problem?
Any other ideas or thoughts?
Many thanks...

Create version of iweb for mobile phone

Just wondering if I should do anything different, to create a version for use on mobile devices, such as phones.
As it is now, my site works (except for the one piece of flash), but it isn't a "true" mobile version. Is there anything I should or can do?

You would have to switch from iWeb to Google Sites, i.e. rebuild your website in Google Sites. A non web-based app that's "mobile friendly" is Freeway:
