Can not publish to iWeb 3.0.2, maybe a sync problem, how to solve it?

My earlier MacbookPro died and I got a new one. Since then the iWeb does not work at all. I have a valid Mobileme subscription till spring next year, but iWeb does not show the existing sites (which are in the other computer) and does not start publishing and does not want to sync the existing sites into the new one. I can publish to Homepage, though.
The only action iWeb does is to take me to the Sync window, it confirms that I have a valid subscription, but thereafter nothing happens.
This must be a problem with sync settings, I gather, but where do I find it, and the key to solve it?
I do NOT want to sync all information from this computer to mobileme or viceversa, otherwise I loose info stored from the previous computers to my iDisk and mobileme spiderweb.

You need iWeb's Domain file from the other computer (your old MacBook Pro) — here's a diagram of where it usually resides:
...But since it "died" and presumably inaccessible, 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.”
By the way, here's the normal procedure when your old computer has not died:
_iWeb: Modifying your site from another computer_
iWeb: Publish to your MobileMe account from more than one computer

  • Still can not publish by iWeb

    always show publish error "an error occurred while publishing file /Web/Sites/xxxx"
    and I can not find any problem. Please help.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. First try the basic fixes: 1 - repair disk permisisons; 2 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple. iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
    Next try to publish to a folder on the desktop? If still not successful get the name of the file that's giving you problems and try the following:
    1 - *first make a backup copy of your domain.sites2 file*.
    2 - open the working domain.sites2 file and see if you can located the problem file.
    3 - move that file to the desktop.
    4 - open iWeb and check each page to see if you can tell what was removed. If ithe item was one that you added, i.e. a photo or graphic, you may have to add it again.
    5 - publish again to a folder. If you get it published to a folder, open the site in your browser and check the pages carefully to make sure all elements are present.

  • I can not publish my iweb site to moblie me

    I had originally written and published a site with no problems.
    However since then I tried to publish my changes and the iweb would show up as "not responding"
    I tried other avenues to change my site which at first worked then failed so I deleted the site amd tried to start over thinking that may solve the issue.
    It still will not publish merely stops reponding
    Just to clarify - I found that I was able to make changes by publishing the iweb to a folder and then uploading the altered files to mobile me. This worked fine to start with but then I added some hyperlinks then uploaded the replacement html pages again - this caused the whole layout to change. This is the reason why I basically deleted the site.
    I can still not publish my site now - same problem when I click the publish or publish all it freezes!

    Hello Frank,
    The good thing of all your efforts is that you could determine the problem to iWeb.

    Well, there are at least 2 more well known issues that you didn't verify yet, at least I didn't see it in your post.
    i get a portion of the files published only.
    This is a clue to these 2 issues: a wrong filename or a problematic widget.
    Go back in history to the point where you had your last successful 'Publish'
    Have a good look at the filenames of the pages you created since then.
    Is a very big chance there is a "wrong" character in the name or 2 spaces..
    With a little bit of luck, when you do a Publish, you can see iWeb hanging on the name
    of the problematic page (not always).
    If it isn't the filename, try selectively remove widgets and do a Publish.
    The moment Publish works, you've found the villain.
    As this tip involves deleting things, make a backup of your domain file first.
    Let me know if these tips don't apply to your situation.
    I still have one radical solution at hand.
    Kind regards,
    Leo

  • Can not publish to iweb after upgrading to icloud

    I have upgrdaded my mobileme account to icloud but did not realise that iCloud does not support hosting iweb and that I will have to find a new host, But the support page tells me I can still publish any changes through mobileme until June 2012 even though I have upgraded.  But I can't see how. When I press 'publish site'  I get a message saying that I have upgraded to icloud. Can anyone help me!

    Try this:
    go to the System/MobileMe preference pane and log out of MMe.
    login with a bogus username and password like "Ying" and "Yang". This clears the caches.
    login with your correct username and password.
    launch iWeb and try again.

  • All of a sudden I can not receive text messages on my MOTOX. Does anyone know how to solve this problem. I can send them, but can't receive them.

    My MOTO X was working fine, then all of a sudden, I can not receive text messages. I have checked the settings and they look correct to me, and I have done everything the web site recommends, except wiping the phone and starting over, to try and fix it. Has anyone else had this issue, and how did you resolve it?
    Thanks so much.

        That's strange that your Moto X wont receive any text. Thank you for trouble shooting the issue. Let's see what's going on! Does your device have any physical or liquid damage? Does anyone else have an issue with calling or texting? What zip code are you in?

  • I can not publish with iWeb.

    I seem to be in a circle of prompts. "sign in to mobile." I do and "your account has been upgraded to iCloud." How do I now publish my website?

    Are you really on 10.5.2 as your signature suggests? - because this does not work with iCloud in any event.
    Assuming you are actually on 10.7.2 and have migrated to iCloud, you need to go to System Preferences>MobileMe and sign in - the migration process tends to sign people out. Then iWeb should work OK, publishing to MobileMe just as before.
    iCloud does not provide any website hosting or general files storage in the manner of iDisk; as MobileMe will be terminated next June your website will disappear then unless you find another host for it. You can publish to another host using iWeb provided it is up to date. More details here:

  • Can I publish my iWeb 2.0.4 site?

    Can I publish my iWeb 2.0.4 site? I designed it, hit "publish" and it went to now-defunct Mobile Me...

    I do believe you can publish your website to a folder.
    I think (it's been a while since I have used the older version) in the File menu you should have an option to publish site to a folder.
    Then you will need to use an FTP application like Cyberduck to upload files to your web host.

  • Can not publish Ical in 10.5

    I can not publish my large work calender to the web. Every time I try to do so I get a message that it is unavailable. I have opened/closed; published/unpublished; exported and imported the calender and still nothing. I really need to be able to publish it
    It worked till I went to 10.3

    Same problem here. Publishing to http://mydisk.provider.net says
    "The server responded with
    "HTTP/1.1 503 Service Unavailable"Service not available"
    However simply mounting http://mydisk.provider.net as a WebDAV Disk in the Finder is no problem so I blame iCal rather than my provider for the occasional(!) error.

  • Can not publish or export CS4, Vista

    Hello all,
    I'm hoping someone has had this problem and can help. I am using a new computer with Vista. I'm using Flash CS4. My flash document is huge and has an imported video in it. So the file size is 675 MB. (I'm guessing this is the problem). Anyway, I have moved the flash document from the server to my computer. I also saved it as a CS4 version - it was created in MX. I can not publish it or export it. I need it to be a swf file, html, or .mov. I was able to do it once as a swf file, but I needed to make changes to it and now I can't get it to export again. The progress bar shows up like it's publishing, but when it's halfway done, the window disappears and nothing has happened.
    It's enough to drive you insane. Does anyone have any thoughts?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello,
    Well, I converted it into an flv after I read about it in the help. But the quality was horrible. It made the video into a smaller file, but it made it grainy and pixilated. I think the original format of my video was the problem, however. Because I was reading in the CS4 help docs and it said the only format you can import is flv. I originally imported the wmv into Flash MX and then opened that file in Flash CS4. So I bet when I went to export from CS4 it would process until it got to the wmv and then just stop. Would be nice if there as an error message. Still doesn't explain why I was able to export it from CS4 once though! Oh and the help also says that you should only embed a short - 10 second etc - video directly into the timeline in Flash. oops! Mine was 12 minutes, ha.
    Anyway, thanks for the idea about just using Windows Movie Maker. I didn't know you could add titles to scenes until you mentioned it and then I read about it in WMM. I had to trick the program a little to get my titles to be on the top of the scene instead of the middle, but it will work for next time.
    Thanks!

  • Unfortunately, I lost by an update all the apps on my iPad 2. Now I can not pull the data from the cloud to my iPad. How is this possible?

    Unfortunately, I lost by an update all the apps on my iPad 2. Now I can not pull the data from the cloud to my iPad. How is this possible?

    If you just installed iCloud does that mean you updated the iOS that's running on your iPad?  If so, you'll want to restore all the programs you have from the backup you hopefully made.
    Refer to these articles for help.
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software.
    If you don't want to use iCloud, simply don't activate it.
    You can also download the programs again.
    If you live in a country that supports re-downloading apps then you can re-download them.  You can refer to this article for more help.
