Can I publish to a desktop folder in iWeb 9?
Trying to sett up a website via Machighway. There is aknown bug that lets you connect to the server but can't publish the site because the publish button in iWeb is grayed out. How can I get around this? Please and thank you.
In iWeb 09 you can publish to MobileMe (now canceled), FTP or a folder.
Click the Sitename on the left and then choose "publish to folder" from the popup menu.
Then upload the published index.html file and site folder with a FTP app of your choice.
I'm sure you must have seen it when you configured the FTP settings.

I have iWeb '08 and just switched from Mobileme to GoDaddy and using Filezilla. I also just upgraded to Lion. Now when I make changes through iWeb it doesn't actually publish to my desktop folder. In fact, it doesn't publish at all but says that it did. How can I make changes in iWeb and publish to a folder?
Choose the destination in the publish settings page as shown in the second example on this page...

How can I upload the back-up folder into iWeb?
How can I upload the back-up folder into iWeb?
Hi
I've set up my website using iWeb 08, always keeping the latest version in iWeb and backing it up in a folder on my HD.
Yesterday I got rid of the current design iWeb and tried to upload the back-up folder into the iWeb application. No success.
How can I upload the back-up folder into iWeb? Many thanks for your help.Welcome to the discussions. Only iWeb's Domain file can be opened in iWeb. See this Apple doc on How to back up MobileMe data. It says:
Any websites you have published with iWeb should still be available within iWeb. iWeb stores everything in a Domain file, normally located in the ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder (although it can be moved). If you no longer have this file, you can view your currently published pages and manually recreate them within iWeb, but there is no way to import published pages back into iWeb. You can manually back up the Domain file, or use Backup to back it up.
Presumably you've been prudently making backups of your Mac's internal HD, so search there for the Domain file's invisible extension:
.sites2
If you can't find your old Domain file, paragraph 2.3 of this FAQ page gives some tips on how to use published files, graphics, photos, etc., to help rebuild the site from scratch:

How can I change my Download/Desktop folder name?
Hello everybody!
First of all, I want to thank by advance all the people who will take some time to answer my question.
I've updated my Macbook Pro 13" late 2011 from Mavericks to the Yosemite Beta (I was part of the pre launching program), end then, from the beta to the actual release.
I don't really remember when, but suddenly, the other day, I've noticed that my basic folders wasn't named in my language. For example, the downloads folder is named "Downloads", as it should be named "Téléchargements" (I'm french, and my OS is in french). The problem is happening on a few folders, only in my finder window, the folders are correctly named in my dock... What could I do to restore that?If you don't mind using the Terminal:
Open the Terminal in your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter:
sudo mv (drag the folder into the Terminal window) (drag it one more time, but now change the folder name)
Press RETURN. When prompted enter your admin password. It will not echo to the Terminal window. Press RETURN again.
The first entry after "sudo mv " is the old_folder_name. Be sure to include the "space" after "sudo mv." The second one is the new_folder_name. Rather than doing a lot of typing it's easier to just drag the folder in twice, then change the folder_name of the second entry. Note that there is a space between the two entries. The parenthetical text is not part of the command line. Repeat the above for each folder you need to rename.
I think this is a bit easier and quicker than reinstalling. -
Can i publish HTML or JavaScript on my iWeb pages?
I don't know how to embed html or javascript - i'm adding advertising affiliates (amazon, etc.) but i cannot post their code. i've had to past the gif logo and then create a link.
Here is a thread in which I have listed the steps involved in adding external HTML to your iWeb pages. It's pretty straightforward and you can apply this technique to pretty much any kind of HTML that you would like to add...

Publish to two local folders in iWeb
Title says it all. How can i publish to two local folders in iWeb?
I have iWeb '08.If you are referring to being able to publish two websites to different local folders, the way to go is have each site on a separate Domain file so that they can be launched in iWeb and published separately.
See under "Separate Domain Files" here...

How can I get my published files in a folder back to Iweb? Iweb files deltd
I have accidentally deleted the original files in Iweb for a site I have created and ftp up to a host, so they don't even exist in the domain.sites folder location it seems now and they were never uploaded to .mac.
I have published them to a folder on desktop and was wondering if anyone knows how I can get those files back into Iweb for editing?
HELP PLS!!Stelle:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Go to Varkgirl's iWeb Tips and Tricks site and download her Automator application for backing up your Domain.sites file on a daily basis. That can prevent this situation in the future. Run it after any changes have been made with iWeb. -
Ok, I want to publish to a local folder on my desktop, so I click the site's name in the sidebar -- following directions that say : "In the Site Publishing Settings window appears, choose Local Folder from the 'Publish to' pop-up menu."
Problem is, I don't get a Site Publishing Settings window, & so can't "choose Local Folder from the 'Publish to' pop-up menu."
Where's the Site Publishing Settings window? And the “Publish to” pop-up menu?
Something's happening wrong when I select the site & click its name in the sidebar window.
Thanks -Figured it out. Duh. I'd been clicking on the Home page & not the Site icon itself. Now window comes up. Thanks for the help, all is solved.

How can I Publish to a Folder just one of the several websites I have created using iWeb?
How can I Publish to a Folder just one of the several websites I have created using iWeb?
it drives me nuts having to emove all the other websites when I want to upload one.
SparrowFor iWeb, I like to do only one site per domain file. I move domain files out of the Application Support folder and place them inside project or client folders, or in DropBox. Once you duplicate a domain file and begin customizing it, it will load and behave as a separate project/site.
I publish each iWeb domain/project direct to a server via FTP. Sometime I publish to a folder, then upload via FTP manually.
iWeb is a remarkable tool, especially when you work from scratch with blank tamplates
Here are a few of my iWeb sites:

I can't find my Desktop folder on any of my TM backups
Hi everyone,
This is my first forum post, and I'm downright desperate.
I have migrated from my old MBP to a brand new one this weekend, and used Time Machine in an external HD to move my data. I had TM set up since February, with no options/exceptions.
As far as I can tell, everything migrated to the new computer perfectly (applications, preferences, documents, music, cookies, etc) except there is nothing on my Desktop after migration. It just so happens that I have (had?) a folder in my Desktop with all my graduate school work.
I have already looked in TM in all the backups since February, and there is no Desktop folder in my user account folder in any of them. Does this mean that TM has never backed up my Desktop from the beginning???
(BTW, I'm also having trouble to simply search for specific files when I look into the TM backup folder in my external HD. Whenever I use Spotlight, it only finds stuff on other folders in that external HD, but it doesn't return any hits from the TM backup folder, even when I look for files that I can see there just by browsing. How can I solve this?)
If it's true that TM never backed up my Desktop, my problem is then getting to my Desktop in the old computer. Trouble is, I had Leopard reinstalled at the Apple Store when I bought the new computer, since the system was supposedly backed up. As far as I know, the old computer was wiped clean and Leopard reinstalled in about 20 minutes by a Genius.
I have been told by them after the fact to use Data Rescue II to try and scour the old computer's internal drive by booting it up in target mode, but I haven't attempted it yet. I was told that if the Leopard reinstall was done in a specific way, I would be able to get to the old files with Data Rescue II still with their names and folder structures if they haven't been overwritten. However, if it was done 'another way', I would have lost the folders and any recovered files would be restored to a new location under a generic name like 'recover000001'. I'm afraid that in this case I will be overwhelmed by all the files in my old system (even if DRII supposedly recognizes file types), and I won't be able to sort through all of them to get at my important work.
Does anyone know what is the best way to get my data back???? It will be two years of work down the drain if I can't access the contents of that folder on my old Desktop.
Thanks so much for any advice!V.K. wrote:

yes, that's what it means.
I don't understand. Why would it be that TM did not backup my Desktop? The Geniuses were not able to answer this question. I'm completely sure I didn't mark any exceptions when I set it up in February, and I've read other people also had similar problems with some of their folders and/or files (there's another thread where another user lost his Downloads folder; I accidentally replied to it instead of creating this new topic -- my apologies).
(BTW, I'm also having trouble to simply search for specific files when I look into the TM backup folder in my external HD.

you have to use spotlight from TM interface, not directly from finder. start TM, scroll to a backup and use the search field to start a search.
That worked great; thanks. Is there a way to search across different backup dates in one go, or do I have to keep clicking back through time with the same search string?

I don't understand why
you did that. did you have some problems with your old computer?
I didn't have any problems with the old computer. I was actually giving it to my mother for Mothers Day as her first Mac, and I wanted to make sure she would have as 'brand new' Mac experience as I could provide her.
, since the system was supposedly backed up. As far as I know, the old computer was wiped clean and Leopard reinstalled in about 20 minutes by a Genius.

this is your one and only hope of getting anything back if you did an erase and install. if you did an archive and install then old your old data will be in the "previous systems" folder at the top level of the hard drive.

Thanks. You reckon professional data recovery services would come up with more stuff (especially filenames and folder structures) than I would be able to, if I tried using DR myself? I'm terrified of going through my whole HD and sorting out the hundreds of thousands of files that weren't in the desktop in the first place.
I appreciate your help, V.K.; I still cannot get over the fact that TM can be so unreliable. What could have caused this catastrophe on my computer and in other users? They were lucky that they still had their data when they noticed TM wasn't backing it up, and the solutions were bone-chillingly similar to Windows voodoo tricks (e.g. delete the old TM plist, hard reboot, pray, and see if it works now). If this is the case, I can't see any options other than doing full manual backups periodically, but that defeats the TM purpose in the first place. Any thoughts or ideas?
Thanks! -
I can no longer create a new folder on my desktop
Both my boyfriend and I have searched ad nauseum and cannot find out why I can no longer create a new folder on my desktop. When we try, we get an error message that says "the operation can't be completed because you don't have the necessary permission" (a Finder pop-up error message). I am the administrator and logged in as such. Anyone have any idea where in Settings, etc., that we can change this? Thanks.
Click on the Desktop and press command-I (Get Info).
Expand the General section of the Info window and be sure the Locked checkbox is unchecked.
If this is OK, then look at the Sharing & Permissions section at the bottom. Tell us everything you see there, or post a screenshot. -
my laptop with my most recent work has crashed. I've downloaded Muse to another desktop but don't have a current version of my website in a file I can access (yes, it's on my laptop-ugh!). So I'm trying to see if I can "reverse-publish" my site from my live version back to my desktop.
HI
If in case you have lost the Muse file or the computer is crashed due to which you do not have the access to file,I am afraid, at this stage its not possible to import the site that you have published back in Adobe Muse
Also, to be on safer side, you may keep your file save with creative cloud storage you get when you purchase your subscription so that, even if you don"t have access to you computer, you may have the updated file downloaded to another and do not loose the work.
Let me know if you have any further query. -

Advanced user tips ... but first backup your iPhoto library
If you want to get rid of your original photo files and leave them in iPhoto, thus freeing up much hard drive space, you can use these commands in Terminal:
mkdir ~/.Trash/iPhoto-Originals
cd ~/"Pictures/iPhoto Library/Modified/"
find . -type f -exec mv "../Originals/{}" ~/.Trash/iPhoto-Originals/ \;
Type these commands carefully and it should work! -
