Can I use iweb to create a website i already own a domain from?

I own a computer company, TW Solutions, located at www.twsols.com. It is hosted by a web company named startlogic. Can i redesign my site in iweb and upload to the company that hosts it already? If so, how? Thanks.

Chrisw427,
Welcome to the iWeb forums.
In iWeb, when you have finished building your site, select from the File menu the option to Publish to a folder, and just select your Desktop. iWeb will generate an index.html file and a Site folder, (which contains your site), both of which will be placed on your desktop when iWeb is finished. Upload both of these, as they are, to your server using an ftp client. Tom Gewecke has given good instructions on this in these notes.
If you run into difficulties, post back and everyone here will help out most courteously.

  • Can I use iWeb to create a website with visitor purchasing options?

    I'm wondering if it's possible to use iWeb to create and publish a website for a small business like mine where visitors to the site can select items and have the option to make credit card purchases from the site. Obviously all the security for online purchasing would need to be there also. Is iWeb capable of that or does Apple offer a different web page software that can do this?
    Thanks to anyone who can help,

    Welcome to the discussions. Not natively.
    ...or does Apple offer a different web page software that can do this?
    As far as I know, Apple has no s/w offerings of that sort. Bear this in mind when considering e-commerce and the MobileMe Service:
    “The Service is designed for personal individual use and is not intended to be used for commercial business purposes, including, but not limited to, transacting online sales or software distribution via an e-commerce site.”
    ...Quoted from the MobileMe Terms of Service. PayPal buttons can be inserted into iWeb pages via the HTML Snippet window — but you may want to consider more complete alternatives such as this:
    http://blog.weebly.com/2/post/2009/05/announcing-weebly-e-commerce-features.html
    ...You could hyperlink from iWeb to your "shop" there and there's even a way to hyperlink to it from iWeb's navigation bar.

  • How can I use iWeb to create website that contains a lot of downloadable audio files?

    Hi
    How to use iWeb to create a website that contains a downloadable audio files.  I'm uloading about 15 GB of audio files.  I need to creat folders "albums" and then put the files in these folders.   Any advise?
    Thank you very much for your time to this
    W B

    The important thing is not to put the audio files directly into iWeb: if you do that then every time iWeb decides it needs to upload the entire site you will find yourself uploading all 15GB of audio files, which won't make you happy. Start by uploading the files to the server - in folders as suits you - and then link to them in iWeb.
    If you want them to download rather than play, you may be able to set up an .'htaccess' file in the folder which will force a download - it depends on whether your hosting service will allow this. The method is described here:
    http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/missing/download.html
    Here is an example of a simple link which produces a download (without the process described the audio file would play in the browser in a blank page):
    http://rfwilmut.net/stars/dawson2.mp3
    Then all you need to do is to provide a link, designed however suits you, in your iWeb page. If your server won't allow the .htaccess file then you will have to ask visitors to control-click (Mac) or right-click (Windows) on the link and choose 'Download linked file' or equivalent - not so convenient; or otherwise zip the files first, which won't much reduce their size but will force a download (and of course the recipients will have to unzip them).
    If you want the files to play in a player in the page, you can use an html snippet to provide a player as described in this page (you will also need to upload a script to the webspace - this is provided in the page):

  • I have a domain name with go-daddy can i use iweb to create my page?

    I'm trying to help a friend set-up a website.  he has a domain name with go-daddy but hasnt set-up the web page at all can i use iweb and upload it to the domain name he already has bought?  I'm a first time iweb user please help!!

    Your friend needs both a domain name and a web hosting account in order to get his website online.  If he has both with GoDaddy.com then yes, you can create and upload the site. 
    If he has purchased only a domain name he'll need to get a hosting service.

  • Can I use iWeb without .mac?

    I can't figure out if I can create a web site with iWeb without having a .mac account. Apple implies, but is not stating it conclusively, just recommending it:
    "iWeb publishing requires Internet and webserver access (.Mac recommended)".
    I have no need for .mac and have web hosting elsewhere. Does anyone know if I can just use iWeb to create my website and publish elsewhere?

    PS Here's a note on tips for this:

  • I published a website using iWeb.  I began using iWeb to create a second site and now I can't find my original site's work on my Mac.

    I published a website using iWeb.  I began using iWeb to create a second site and now I can't find my original site's work on my Mac.

    If you're publishing directly from iWeb 3 to your FTP server then you'll have the following in your accounts root directory:
    Site 1 folder
    Site 2 folder
    Site 3 folder
    index.html file from last published site directling to the last published site.
    If you want to keep Site 1 as the primary site you'll need to publish it one more time to the server so you get it's index.html file uploaded.
    Now you'll have to publish Sites 2 and 3 to a folder on the hard drive and use a 3rd party FTP client like Cyberduck, YummyLite or Transmit  to upload only the site folder (and not its external index.html file with it).
    The url to sites 2 and 3 will be:
    http://doman_name.com/Site 2
    http://doman_name.com/Site 3

  • Can I use iWeb to make changes to a website created in Dreamweaver?

    can I use iWeb to make changes to a website created in Dreamweaver? How would I do this? I didn't create the site and don't know Dreamweaver, but I figure I could learn iWeb quickly.

    No, iWeb cannot open or change existing sites no matter what other program created them.

  • Can I use iWeb for my own domain without .mac

    margriet

    You publish to a folder and use an ftp program like Cyberduck, Fetch, or Transmit to upload. I recommend you not use Dreamweaver. Some tips:

  • I can't use iWeb at all!

    Since I Have my Mac, almost an year ago, i can't use iWeb at all!
    When i open iWeb, shows up the iWeb window, but not the templates list.
    'New Page' and 'New Site' appear in gray.
    And the same happens to the inspectors!
    I don't have a .Mac account, but there is people who did websits with iWeb and saved them into folders. I can't even choose the template!
    I don't need to publish, I just want to create.

    My iLife suit came included with the computer. I can't reinstall, unless I reinstall all Mac OS X!

  • How can I use forms to create a printable document or an html page?

    This question may be a little confusing, so below is a link to an example of what I want to create using Dreamweaver.
    http://www.howard.edu/technology/info/web/hosting/request/default.htm
    On this webpage, the user is asked to fill in the forms with their info and when they press "view printable form", a html page using the info that was inputted is created for the user to print and sign.
    So, I basically want to create the exact same thing in Dreamweaver - any suggestions? Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Can I use iWeb to work with live journal?

    Hi! Can I use iWeb to control my livejournal? Style? Design? Posts?
    Thx!

    No, because Google is not a web host in that sense of the word.  Google has free webhosting, but you need to go to Google and sign up for an account and use Google sites to create your site and then publish it.  It is free because it is then published and hosted on the Google server.  You don't have the ability to publish an ordinary iWeb site to a host like this.  It is the same as Weebly where you create your site in the same way or WordPress.com, where your blog or site is hosted on the WordPress.com servers.
    You need to get proper web host such as http://www.hostexcellence.com or http://www.godaddy.com.  Do a search though for the numerous other free web hosts out there - there are more than just Google.

  • Can I use iWeb to "beef up" a facebook fan page?

    I'm a total novice to publishing web sites but I have used iWeb to create a personal web page which is my only experience. So, my question is... can I use iWeb to put content into a facebook fan page I've created? I have FBML on the page if that helps.

    It would be very difficult and definitely not the right program to do it. You would really need a tool that is geared towards generating HTML such as one of these;

    But if there is something specific you would like to do, please me know and there might be a better tool I can recommend.

  • Can't use function in creating record group

    Gurus,
    This question is for developers. Is this true one can't use
    function in creating record group. I am using form5.
    thanks,
    ZW

    I figured out the issue... they changed the way Group Calls are limited.
    Here's a full explaination - and a suggestion for a behavior fix: http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/Please-Fix-Group-Video-Voice-Calling-Limit-Beha...
    Long story short, you can't do a video calling at all if the group has more than 10 people in it total (including you).
    Also, you can't do voice calling in groups with more than 25 people.
    Text chats are limited to 300 people (or so I've been told by Skype employees). I've been in a chat with over 100 participants though so I know it goes that high at least.
