Automatical open old domain file

Hi,
I have problem with new iWeb 08. I used old iWeb and a had about 3 sites. Now I upgrade on iWeb 08 and if I open iWeb isn't automatical open my old domain file and I choose domain file manualy. If I creat new domain file so next open iWeb.app is OK, but i need my old sites.
Can you help me with this problem?
Thank Jan

iWeb does not import anything.
It only opens domain files.
So why not do that.
Better yet, use this :

  • I can't open an old Domain file

    About two years ago I made a website for my dad. www.larrylewisphotography.com. Well I have finally set up an etsy store to sell his photographs and I need to get back in and link the "order online" tab with the new domain for his etsy store. I have since purchased a new computer and have even upgraded HDD's over the past two years. I have saved the original Domain file which holds all the info for the website. When I tried to open it today with iWeb all it does is opens up a new templte for me!
    I really don't want to have to redo everything on the webiste! When I checked in the package contents of the domain file everything is still there. iWeb just won't open it.
    Does anybody have any suggestions?

    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.
    Once you get the library visible remove the new domain file from the iWeb folder and put your original file there.  Then open your domain file in Lion with the following script that Cyclosaurus has provided us with.  You can compile it 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.
    Just launch the applicaiton, 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.
    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 compiiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.

  • Can't open my domain files with iweb??

    I have a new Hard drive version 10.5.8. I have my old website files but iweb (3.0.3) will not open them. I've tried a few suggestions but nothing works. iweb just keeps prompting me to start a new site???

  • I have a new IMAC with a Maverick platform (I can update to Yosemite). I did all graphics on a G5 Power PC (very old), in Freehand (very old)... How can I open old Freehand files on this new Mac? Can I still open and work in Freehand on this new Mac?

    Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
    Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
    After this, do an update from the App Store.
    Thats all there is to it.
    For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
    Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
    There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.

  • How do I open old tiff files in PS CS5

    How do I open old tiff files in PS CS5?

    Opening old files in new versions should never be a problem - unless they have originally been saved in other applications that don't follow the file format specifications. Or the files are corrupted.
    The other way around can sometimes be tricky because of new features not present in the old version.

    When trying to open an .xps file, I told Firefox to AUTOMATICALLY open all .xps files in the future using xpsviewer.exe & now it opens MANY, MANY tabs FAST and continually once I double click on .xps file! How do I stop this? How do I UNselect the AUTOMATIC feature? I do not see where to do this. Also, How DO I open a .xps file successfully in Firefox once this first problem is solved?

  • Cannot open old Illustrator files (pre version 8) in CS4 trial

    Hi
    I am thinking of upgrading from Illustrator CS2 to CS4. However, I have downloaded the trial version and have found that Illustrator CS4 cannot open old Illustrator files earlier than version 8 (pre 2000) whereas Illustrator CS2 had no problem with this. I do not want to resave my old files as there are way too many of them (hundreds!).
    I am running Windows XP.
    Has anyone else had this problem?
    Thanks

    Exactly what happens when you attempt to open one of these old files in AI 14 (CS4)? (If you get an error message, what does it say?)
    Can you post a sample file up on a server or service and provide the link here? That way, others with AI 14 can test to see whether it's something peculiar to your installation.
    Please also tell us exactly how you are attempting to open the files. (Double-clicking in Explorer? Using File | Open from within Illustrator? Dragging and dropping onto an AI 14 shortcut?)
    >...CS4 cannot open old Illustrator files earlier than version 8...
    I find it very difficult to believe AI 14 can open version 8 but not version 7 files. There was no significant change in the native file format.

  • Cannot open the Domain file in iWeb, Mavericks

    Hello world of !
    I just formatted the MacBook Pro, performing a clean instal of Mavericks. Having a HDD and a SSD into the machine, the Domain file of my iWeb sites was saved on the HDD while the OS and the apps are running on the SSD. The problem that I now have is that whenever I try to open the Domain file and get to my websites, the iWeb opens anew, with no website inside, inviting me to choose a template to create a new one.
    Any hint as to how to get to my websites?
    Thank you all in advance!

    Hi,
    I have been using demo version of C4 and upgraded today.

  • Restoring old 'domain' file?

    How did you restore the original 'domain' file?
    My 'domain' file was overwritten by iWeb 2.0, and I can't open it anymore because iWeb 2.0 crashes and iWeb 1.1.2 won't touch it.
    Any suggestions how I can get it back?
    I went back to iWeb 1.1.2 until the 'fix' arrives.

    dreamery post had me look in username>Application Support>iWeb and there I found my old iWeb "Domain." It was untouched.
    I am not completely updated to iWeb 08 (2.0)!!!!
    Finding the "Domain" was the key. I thought it lost forever.
    The first thing I did was make a copy of the Domain (I duplicated it and moved it to a new location).
    Then I double clicked on Domain and it opened iWeb 08, advised me it had to update for the version of iWeb. I agreed and in a few minutes, waiting while the progress bar moved to completion, wondering the whole time if I had done something stupid and lost my last chance, iWeb 08 had ALL my old pages displayed JUST LIKE it was the old iWeb! Yippee!!!
    I am soooo happy.
    Hope this works for others.

  • Pages 5 in Mavericks no longer opens Text files?- need to open old Clarisworks files

    My 90 year old uncle clung to ClarisWorks, Appleworks far too long
    He still has Claris Works documents he needs to open.Some so old that even AppleWorks version  6x, the final version of AppleWorks could not open!)
    In Mountain Lion, he could open the older Clarisworks- Appleworks documents in TextEdit  , save as  .TXT file and then open that file in Pages
    Tonight, after installing OS 10.9  ( Mavericks)he finds this work around unrelable : Sometimes the new Pages cannot open the .TXT message
    How do  I help him convert his old documents?
    ( he saved  names and addresses in to Claris Works documents instead of entering into his Contacts/Address Book so now he is panicky to retrieve the addresses as he starts working on his holiday greeting and gift mailings)

    Will the old Pages run under Maverick?
    IF so that will be something to try
    Old Pages did not open up the old Clarisworks docs but Pages 09 DID respond when we changed the extension of the CW documents to "TXT".
    So , Uncle can try using Pages 09
    We also can try Libre
    I can install Text Wrangler- there was some advice that it will open the old CW files.
    My concern is that Uncle IS 90years of age. He is remarkable using a Mac but he needs, wants everything to be straightforward and resists, cannot handle any process requiring too many steps
    The need to use an intermediary translation system (CW->TXT->Pages) is stressful for him.
    Such a shame that Apple did not program a translator to open the files made by its previous proprietary software (ClarisWorks and Appleworks)
    Thanks all

  • I/O error trying to open old AW files

    I have hundreds of old Appleworks files from an older version (5.0) and when I try to open them with my new Intel based iMac using Appleworks 6.2.9 it says
    " An I/O error occurred".
    All I'm trying to do is open the file - not print or anything else. I can't figure it out.
    Need help.
    Larry
    imac   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Yvan Koenig has said he has some AppleWorks 5 files fail to open in AppleWorks 6 with the I/O error. I've never had a problem opening any AppleWorks 5 files whether they were created on a Mac or PC.
    Are you sure that some of these files aren't ClarisWorks 4 or earlier files? AppleWorks 6.2.9 (the current version) can't open all ClarisWorks 4 or earlier files & gives an I/O error. There doesn't appear to be a way to predict which files will cause problems. I've had it happen & not happen with all AppleWorks file types. These files can be opened by any other version of AppleWorks 6.
    I'm not clear if it's one file or all of the files you can't open. If it's just one or a few, I'd think there is some corruption in the file. If it's a lot (more than half) & you're sure they are AppleWorks 5 files, some basic troubleshooting might help.
    First step, delete the AppleWorks 6 preferences as they may be corrupt, particularly the translator cache. See my user tip, AppleWorks has stopped working correctly, for more info.
    Did you move these files from one Mac to another using a USB flash drive or other removable device? If the device is PC-formatted, some information in the files may have been lost in the transfer. Another user tip addresses this problem - AppleWorks 6 won't open my AW 5 files.
    I'd be willing to take a look at two or three of these problem files for you & see if I can figure out where the problem is. E-mail them to me with a subject line of "I/O errors." Just click my name in blue next to this post. My public e-mail address is in the biography section.
