Accessing domain.sites file from idisk

Hi, all! Merry X-mas!
I just got a new MacBook (yay!) and I would like to work on my various websites. However, my desktop with my files on it is 3,000 miles away. Is there a way to open iweb on my new computer and access my various domains here using my idisk?
Thanks! And Happy Holidays!
Lisa

Hi Lisa and Merry Christmas!
If you had copied your Domain files to your iDisk, you could download them to your new laptop and open them with the iWeb application. Beyond that, unless you know a way to hack into the system on your desktop machine...
I keep mine (Domains) on a usb thumb drive that I always carry with my laptop. You can even click on them straight from the drive and iWeb will open them for editing and publishing.

How to move iWeb site with missing Domain.sites file

I've been asked to host a friend's iWeb site now that MobileMe is no longer an option. The problem is that the MacBook it was created with is long gone and the only original files remaining are the image files for the site. No Domain.sites file. They are also not sure which version of iWeb was used, if that even matters. Initially I was thinking we could just access the existing site using ftp and go from there - upload the site to my hosting account and use Dreamweaver to maintain it, but everything I've read seems to point to 'Not gonna happen that way'.
Is there a way to transfer an existing iWeb site hosted on MobileMe to a new hosting account and be able to work on it with another editor, all the while not having the original Domain.sites(2) file?
Thanks much,
Mark

Quite a few people are moving to other drag and drop style editors like Sandvox and RapidWeaver although they aren't really any better - just more expensive.
I advise people not to use iWeb for new sites and just to keep it going to update existing ones until they are defunct or rebuilt some other way.
I quit using iWeb about a year ago due to the fact that it, and similar apps, can't create responsive designs for mobile devices although I did figure out a stop gap design for iPhones...

Retrieving damaged domain.sites file

My domain.sites file has been damaged and I can no longer access my blog pages. Does anybody know if there is any way to retrieve and rebuild them from either the i.disk or the .mac account?
MacBook Pro 15" Mac OS X (10.4.10)

If my guess is not wrong, I had the same problem and after "googleing" for long hours and reading barely all the post I basically will have to disappoint you. Apparently there is no solution. It seems to be some corruption with the index.xml.gz file and unless you are a hardcore programmer and manage to edit that file at "code-level" there is no human solution available for restoring that file...
Sorry for the bad news! But if you do find a solution, please post it!

I imported my iweb site files from my desktop to my laptop and now they wont open up in iweb

Hi,
I imported my iweb site files from my desktop to my laptop and now they wont open up in iweb.
I can see the files in the home/sites folder but cant seem to be able to replace them with the site that is already in iweb?
I have just upgraded to lion on the macbook pro and was using 10.4.x on the desktop.
Is there any way to replace the files and work on the web site on the MBP?
And I dont see the library/application support/iweb folder anywhere.
Much appreciate the feedback.
Thanks

As I said earlier, iWeb does not open/import webpages.
And yes, you need the domain file. The movie demonstrates how to move them to and from the default location.
And the page explains how to open the hidden library folder in Lion. Which is also discussed in the Lion forum and extensively in this one.

I have converted a pdf to word. How can I access the Word file from my online account?

I have converted a pdf to word. How can I access the Word file from my online account? When it says 'download the converted file' I choose a location on my PC and click, but nothing happens. It seems that it can only save the converted file to my online account. I went to my online account but I see no way to look for the file

Hey Fabrizio,
You might need to sign up at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf" using your Adobe ID credentials to convert your PDF file to Word.
Do you get the 'download' prompt?
Also, you can find the converted files by clicking at the 'Files' tab.
Please try the same using a different browser and check.
Hope to hear from you.

hi
Thank u for ur response.
Initially i tried to access pdf file from database server. I didn't get any solution for that. So I copied all my pdf files to Application server which is in Linux environment at "/home2/docs" directory.
I gave the following command for accessing the pdf files kept in Lnux Application Server from Oracle 10g forms in a button press trigger.
web.show_document('http://192.168.1.53:7779/home2/docs/test.pdf');
It says "page cannot be found"
So I copied one of the pdf file named "test.pdf" to "/oracle/oas10g/IasHome/forms90/java" in Linux Application Server . Then the following command
web.show_document('http://192.168.1.53:7779/forms90/java/test.pdf');
has opened the the pdf file in browser.
192.168.1.53 is my Linux Application Server IP. and 7779 is the port.
Actually we have lacs of pdf files. So i cannot keep all the pdf files in "/oracle/oas10g/IasHome/forms90/java" directory in Linux Application Server. And also all the pdf files not in the same directory , "/home2/docs" some of the pdf files r in the subdirectories of "/home2/docs/" like /home2/docs/sub1, /home2/docs/sub2, /home2/docs/sub3 etc.
Then how to configure my "/oracle/oas10g/IasHome/forms90/server/forms90.conf" file for retrieving pdf files from "/home2/docs/" and its subdirectories. Is Anything other than this, required for solving my problems.
Now My PDF files r in LINUX APPLICATION SERVER not in database server.
Please help!! It is VERY URGENT!!!

What is going on? I can't access my iPhoto files from any other programs. It just says "Open iPhoto to see photos from your iPhoto Library in this list", but that doesn't work. What changed?

All of a sudden I can't access my iPhoto files from any other programs (ie Photoshop, facebook etc.). It just gives me this message below. What the **** changed? This wasn't happening yesterday.

1 - close iPhoto.
2 - go to your Pictures folder and open the iPhoto Library package as shown below:
3 - locate a file named AlbumData.xml and move it to the Desktop.
4 - launch iPhoto.
5 - relaunch the other programs and try the media browser again.

Multiple domain.sites files

Any reason I shouldn't rename my domain.sites file in order to create and work on another site? I could just rename the files when I switch back and forth. I'm building a site in exchange for lessons and don't really want to keep it around all the time..... plus I'll turn it over to them someday anyway. Good, bad, indifferent?

No problem with that. Rename each domain file to match the site name it contains. You can then put them both in the default location, your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder, and drag that folder into the Dock. When you want to open Site A click on that folder in the dock and select the A.sites2 file.

Where on iCloud do I move my files from iDisk?

Where on iCloud do I move my files from iDisk?

You don't. There is no replacement for iDisk in iCloud. This was announced a year ago. You've got 4 weeks to find an alternative before your files are deleted.

Domain.sites file

I've been poking through the discussions trying to solve my issue, https://discussions.apple.com/message/15079651#15079651, and have found that the domain.sites file should be in the library/applications support/iWeb folder.
My new/additional problem is I have no iWeb support folder. I looked through my Time Machine backups all the way back to December of last year and have no folder. There is also no file named domain.sites anywhere in the backup.
Any ideas on why not? Also, any ideas on how I can get iWeb to start working again would be a big help.

To be more precise, the file should be in :
~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/
folder (note the uppper/lowercase characters and the missing s in Applications) where ~ is your Home directory.
If you copy that line and do Command-Shift-G in the Finder, paste the line and hit Return, you'll end in the iWeb folder where the Domain.sites2 file should be.
Whether or not the file is backup'ed is another matter.

Deleting files from iDisk

I've successfully uploaded a web site using iWeb, but now I would like to delete a couple of Web Galleries from iDisk. From the Finder I go to GO>my iDisk, but the spinning wheel spins and spins, nothing happens. I left it connected all night. Still nothing. How can I delete files, or what am I doing wrong to access iDisk.

Many thanks. It worked like a charm. The reboot gave me the iDisk in no time and I was able to take off a couple of photo galleries, plus I went to Aperture and deleted a gallery and it immediately published the deletion to iDisk. I'm starting to get the hang of this. Thanks again.

Pages & Keynote. Opening files from iDisk on your iPad

I'm interested in buying both Keynote and Pages but want to know if I can access (and work on) files on my iDisk from my iPad.
On my desktop I can go into my iDisk and double click on any Word or Powerpoint file (I have Microsoft Office on my desktop) and it will open on my desktop.
Does anyone know if had Keynote and Pages installed on my iPad if it would do the same?

iPad apps (iwork at least) access a common file sharing folder that can be seen through iTunes. On the iPad, you can have the app download from that shared folder into its local space.
You then have to export from the program back into the shared folder for iTunes to see it again.
