Archive old websites

Is there a way to archive an old website created in iWeb so that I can remove it from .mac and publish a new site?

same the "domain" file. That will be the archive of the site.
Right. You would have to make a copy of it ( Command(Apple)+d ) and then move it somewhere. The day you want to edit the old website you will have to double click the copy of the Domain file and it will show up in iWeb.
When you delete a site from IWeb it is removed from the Domain file too. That's why you make a copy of it. The copy and the non-copy are independent from each other. The new site will be in the Domain file and the old site in the copy of the domain file you made.

Archiving old iWeb projects

Can I save old iWeb projects to iCloud? If so, how do I do that? Or must I save them to a new web host ? Thanks.

No. To archive your websites make copies of your Domain.sites file that resides in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. That's the file/package that iWeb uses to create and publish your website. Keep copies of it to preserve the website at the date the copy was made.
If you're running Lion read the following:
In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

Can you archive old calendar items in Entourage so you don't run out of space on your Blackberry?

Hi everyone,
I have a Sprint Pearl 8130 and I am syncing with PocketMac to Entourage 2004 on an iBook G4 running OS 10.3.
Most of my syncing issues are minor (for some reason, in contacts, work and home email addresses switch fields, but I can live with that) and I don't have too many complaints about PocketMac for now....
My question is - Does anyone know how to archive old calendar items so that my Blackberry doesn't run out of space? I have calendar items going back to the beginning of 2008. I don't need past calendar items on my Blackberry, except for reoccurring items, like birthdays and such, and maybe a month's worth of old appointments just for reference. My Blackberry has run out of space a couple of times and when it deletes the appointments from my Blackberry, syncing wants to either delete from the Mac or restore to the Blackberry. I know you can do this with a Palm and their Palm software, since I used to have one and I was able to archive items older than a week. Then you would be able to access them in a separate archive profile.
I have searched everywhere and the closest thing I can find is to purchase Missing Sync and set to match my sync date range. https://support.markspace.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=327. But that doesn't really solve my issue of running out of space on my Blackberry. The other thing that I could think of is to export the calendar items into a .rge file, then delete the calendar items from there, sync, and have PocketMac remove items from my Blackberry, but it would be a pain to easily access old calendar items.
I appreciate any thoughts, ideas and especially solutions!

I have the exact opposite issue you mentioned
my client wants his archived calender items to be synched to his 8830 world wide ed.
he is running RIM software (DesktopManager) v 6.4
BES 2007
current issue is that his archived old calendars are not synchronizing to his handheld; we tried to force his PC to synch those items manually through cable, which didn't help, since our BES policy force waireless synch policy to the device and wireless synch never can see the archived items files
I think if you can set the option on your device so it turns on the calendar wireless synch, and also make sure MAC does not select archive to synch
Calendar > Options > General settings or /Wireless synch set to ON;
if you running BES set Calendar Wireless synch off

How do I edit an old website that is no longer listed on my iweb? It is still alive online...help!

I thought I had deleted it in iweb and started a new, unrelated website but then I see they are both alive under the same .com except one has .com/ with a different bit at the end. I ideally would like to either edit part of it or delete it all together if that is easer but it is no longer on iweb. Please help! Many thanks!

iWeb stores the website data in a Domain.sites2 file whose default location is Home Folder/Library/Application Support/iWeb...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/iWeb-Tips.html
If the old website has been deleted from this file you would need to rebuild it since iWeb cannot import published files.
To remove the older site from the internet you need to delete its files on the server using an FTP application or your host's file manager...

I want to change my website but he changes are not published, though it says it does, but wenn i visit the website is still is the old website

I succeeded in publishing my website, but I did not succeed in publish the Changes via FTN, only the old website appeares, although after publishing IWeb says that everything is published. but hwhen i visit the site it keeps being the old site

The link you posted gives be a 404 not found message.
The reason you're getting the repeat is because your site name is wilgenroos.nl and the first page of your site is wilgenroos.
The standard URL for domain names that are forwarded with the CNAME method is:
http://www.domain_name.com/site_name/page_name.html.
You can change the site and page names in iWeb to give you something more informative about the site and page.
If you're publishing to a 3rd party server and want to get rid of the site name in the url and only have
http://www.domian_name.com/page_name.html
do the following:
publish the site to a folder on your hard drive (already done)
use Cyberduck to upload just the contents of your site folder to the root folder of your account on the server.
You should delete the old site folder and files that are currently there beforehand.

Don't auto archive old topics, because I might return, some day

Here is a suggestion: Don't auto archive old topics, because I might return, some day. It is really annoying, that after couple of months or so I come back, and my threads have been locked. Also the message of locking is very small, hard to notice. I just try and try to post, but nothing helps. Then I find out, oh, the thread is convieniently locked. At the very least, the message should be more clear, and different icon for locked messages.
Thread about this at user forums http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2392195&tstart=0

Hi Barbara,
For some people it is a useful thing.
The Example I linked to is in iSight's forum and if you go there you will see it not that far down the Topic List.
Mostly I have seen nice comments or very late thanks as in the Example.
Currently at the top of the second page in iChat 3 forum is one I used a similar technique on myself. It is the one with the red Title. (iChat 3 is currently getting more posts than iSight is so it has progressed further down).
It is an archived thread so even further Helpfuls and Solved stars cannot be awarded ...
I will leave you to work out what I did and how it could be abused.

Archiving old mail messages

I am trying to archive old mail messages so they do not cram up my inbox. In the past I have successfully created a new mailbox for old messages, given it a month and year, and dragged messages across – but I can no longer do this.
When I try to drag a message across, I get the message 'Error: the message "xxx" could not be moved to the mailbox "xxx" - On My Mac". Can anyone help me out?
Not being able to archive old messages means that I have hundreds of already read messages in the inbox which causes, I think, another problem. Every time I open the mail program and click on an unread message, I am told that "The message has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it". When I quit the mail program and go back in, the problem sorts itself, but this happens every time I check the mail and it is becoming quite frustrating!
Happy New Year to you all!
Regards, Mike
iMac Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Does the same occur when using the Move To or Copy To command instead of dragging messages manually?
Every time I open the mail program and click on an unread message,
I am told that "The message has not been downloaded from the server.
You need to take this account online in order to download it".
This indicates an "overstuffed" mailbox issue which means the mailbox has approached or exceeded 1 GB in size (which is the recommended mailbox size limit for Jaguar and Panther Mail) or has some corruption.
An "overstuffed" mailbox issue can occur at any mailbox size but is more likely to occur as a mailbox approaches or exceeds 1 GB in size for Jaguar or Panther Mail.
Although your OS detail provided indicates you are running 10.3.9, you posted in the Mail & Address Book - Tiger discussions so I'm assuming you are running 10.3.9 and not Tiger.
Quit the Mail.app first and using the Finder go to Home > Library > Mail > this POP account named folder (named by the user name and incoming mail server for the account) > INBOX.mbox.
Move the INBOX.mbox to the Desktop.
When relaunching Mail, a new INBOX.mbox will be created automatically by Mail within the account named folder. This will allow the Mail.app to function properly again and not risk losing any existing messages or new messages downloaded by the account while working on the old INBOX.mbox moved to the Desktop to recover the existing messages.
Control-click on the old INBOX.mbox moved to the Desktop and at the menu window that appears, select Show Package Contents.
Post back here listing the package content file names and size of each.

Old websites visited keep popping up as tabs when I reopen the browser

As it says, I have 2 old websites that appear as tabs every time I reopen my browser. How do I get rid of them?

You can check the home page setting:
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
You can check if you have a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that sets the browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once pref to true.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once
You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder that store session data.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Multiple_profile_files_created
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).

IWeb Will not replace old website! Please help!

I'm trying to replace an old website that was designed with Frontpage, with a new one designed with IWeb09. Every time I try to publish the new site, it publishes it to a subfolder. I read a few of the discussions, downloaded cyberduck, and deleted the old website files, but now I just get a blank page.
Please help! Any ideas?

Well, yes, iWeb will publish to a sub folder called your Site folder, which will have the same name as you named your site within iWeb - this is what it is supposed to do and always will.
What you need to do is use Cyberduck and connect with your server and delete what was there previously and then, when you upload your new iWeb site, just upload the contents of your Site folder rather than the whole folder itself and then your url will be http://www.domain.com/pagename.
Just be aware that if you are using any RSS feeds, uploading your site in this way will make them inactive.
The other way to do it is to upload your whole site folder to your server's public_html file or wherever you have to upload to and then you get your separate index.html file and place this outside your public_html folder pointing in. Your RSS feeds will then work, however, your url will then be http://www.domain.com/sitename/page name.
The choice is yours.

Uploading old website from DW 3.0 to newer version

Hello,
I have my current website done up and updated from DW 3.0 on an old PC. Its time to upgrade to the new Adobe DW software, but unsure if and how the new software will accept my old website info.
My questions are:
a) will the latest version of DreamWeaver be able to import/upload my old data, files and folders etc?
b) my old website was done from a PC. I use a Mac now. Is the current version of DW mac friendly?
c) assuming there is a mac version of DW, will it, once loaded, be able to import my old website files, and repost them?
Im pretty green with all this so any help whatsoever is greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Chris
Halifax, NS, Canada

Well, first off you won't be able to upgrade from 3.0 to CS4 (10.0). One reason because Adobe only allows upgrades from the previous 3 versions and second, because you are moving from one OS to another.
To answer the Mac question, yes DW runs fine on a Mac. I run CS3 on my Powerbook right now and am planning to run CS4 on a new Macbook Pro once Snow Leopard is released.
With regards to the files and structure of your site, copying the files from the old PC to the new Mac will be fine. I am not sure if the site definitions that are saved will work. You may have to redefine the site and re-enter information such as FTP information back into Dreamweaver. I am not positive about this though so if someone else knows more about this I would trust their answer.

Archiving Old Purchase Information

Is it possible to Archive old Purchase Information? I have been using ZENworks Asset Manager for several years now and have old purchase information for products that are no longer in the environment.
When I run a Compliance Report for a product that has several generations of purchase information I would like to be able to exclude it so that it does NOT show purchase information for products that no longer have any Installation Information. Setting the criteria on the left does not allow me to get detailed enough for what I want. My only other option has been creating Custom Reports.
I don't want to delete the old Purchase Information, it has been useful on more than one occassion. What are some of my options that I have not thought about?

Archiving old photos and iPhoto 9.5

So,
The newest version of iPhoto has not only dropped the ability to burn old photos to CD and DVD, it's stopped supporting reading libraries that are set read-only.
Even worse, even if you do use the iPhoto Library Ugrader to convert a backup DVD to modern format, when you open in it in iPhoto, iPhoto will promply try to sync it to your iPad, your iPhone, PhotoStream and everything else.
SO HOW THE HECK AM I SUPPOSED TO ARCHIVE OLD PHOTOS?!?
This is ridiculous. Does anyone have any idea for a good process for archiving old photos in a way that they can still be accessed without worrying about them being "contaminated" with stuff from your photostream or other current sources?

You archive old libraries to HD's. Turn off Photostream, FB et al and nothing will be "infected".
You might be able to use an app like Keyboard Maestro to automate the upgrade procedure.
My sole contribution to the thread prior to your sarcasm. It offers two solutions to your queries. No argument. I blamed you for nothing, I simply explained the problem you have and indeed offered a solution. Nowhere do I say that anything is your wife's fault, so the notion that I blamed her for anything is twaddle. You're the one that mentioned it.
I said nothign about exporting photos at all, and the solution I suggested woud preserve all the tags, descriptions and ratings. But then, if you weren't so busy being sacastic to people who are trying to help you, you might read what I said again:
The solution to your iPhoto problem is simple: Copy all the Libraries to a HD. Upgrade them. Merge them into one. Turn off any features you don't want. Have a robust back up system in place.
Export? Lose metadata? Not if you do it right.
