Can't publish iWeb due to .png error

can't publish iWeb due to .png error

With as many people that have this same issue, I am very surprised that support is still sleeping at the wheel.  Some of the suggestions border on the absolute absurd (e.g. create new user account, check the system clock, etc.).  I've tried them all, including exclusion from AVAST, resetting router, etc etc etc.  iCloud status shows all green.
As the owner of a software development company, I find it hard to believe Apple, of all support, has been unable to get this issue resolved once and for all.  It would certainly make sense, as well, to collate this issue into a single thread instead of bouncing users off the moon and back.
I spent 1/2 day on the phone with Apple support trying to get iTunes to backup and was promised a call back from the next tier of support.  That was 4 months ago and I still haven't been able to backup my iphone 4S.  I've never seen software that is more kludgy and unreliable with every passing upgrade (sorry, but it's the truth)!
After two years of not being able to back up my phone, I am considering going to a more reliable platform.  After 6 years on the Apple bus, maybe it's time to get off.

  • Get Publish failed due to network error on Publish

    Everytime I make a change to my web site within iWeb then do a Publish I get a message "Publish failed due to network error. Check your internet connection and try again".
    Although I get the above message my changes do get made on my web site.
    I am on high speed internet. I have received this message every time I do a Publish after making changes for the last several days.
    http://web.mac.com/johnnelsonhomes is web site address. Again, changes are getting posted most times, although not always.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    I have been having the same problem. I can access my iDisk, but cannot publish to it. When I try i get a 'cannot publish due to network error' message. I can successfully upload the same website to my 'GoDaddy' hosting acct. This is what I have done so far without success:
    Turned off all commenting and searches and .mac specific services.
    Tried connecting directly to my DSL modem to try to eliminate any problem that may be introduced by my router or firewall settings.
    Reformatted my hard drive and re-installed OSX (clean). Patched the new system with all available updates. I did not restore from my back-ups to ensure that any corrupted settings would not be brought forward to the new install. I then created a simple one page site with iweb and attempted to publish to .mac. Even this failed. I am not sure what I could be missing. I had been publishing for months without any problem. Then I started getting this problem occasionally, and now I get it all the time. The only thing I can think of is if there is possibly a network latency problem causing the connection to time out.

    If you try a new media card in your device do you get the same error? Sounds like the media card is damaged.

    iTunes: Home sharing can't be activated due to an error (5506). Who can help?
    I have an Apple ID but for some reason iTunes does not recognizes it.
    I have downloaded the latest version of iTunes as well?

    Did you ever figure it out? I am new to itunes and it won't allow me to home share with my daughter because I don't have a credit card.

  • "Publish Error: Publish failed due to network error. Check your internet co

    I am using the very latest version of iWeb. I have had it for a week.
    First let me tell you the message that I got and then what I was doing prior to getting the message:
    It said: "Publish Error. Publish failed due to a network error. Check your internet connections and try again."
    I did check my internet connections and I called mt cable modem ISP. He put me through some tests and ascertained that the problem was not with the cable connection. I can connect to the web (of course) and I can send and receive email. The fellow at the ISP (Road Runner) told me that the uploading goes just fine but that the confirmation end of it is bad.
    I have made 9 pages for my website. I clicked the button to publish the 10th page and got the message at the top of this post.
    Then I called Apple Care and took advantage of the 90-day help warranty. The gal there had me try to publish to my private folder. That worked! I was able to publish to the folder and that message at the top of this post did not appear. It said that the page was published and did I want to visit it.
    I ended up deleting the page about my friend Lerma, since everything was going fine until I did that page. AS I recall, there was a mixup with the pages and I thought I had fixed it.
    Then I worked a little more on my husband's Memorial Site and tried to publish and got the same bad message as above, meaning that it wasn't just the page about Lerma but any page I might be doing since doing her page.
    NOW THIS IS THE ODD PART:
    I went to the website on Safari browser with the intention of checking out the other earlier pages, only to discover (happily) that my husband's memorial page (the beginning of it) WAS THERE even though I got that message saying that there had been a network error. Lerma's page, however, was NOT there.
    I am between happy knowing that a page can show up on the website even though I get a message saying that it did not, but anxious knowing that if I am getting Publish Error messages, something is screwy with the program.
    I will continue to try to publish to the Internet, but meanwhile I welcome any observations and happy accounts of how they got the same message but everything ended up fine after a while.
    Meanwhile I am going to be working on my pages even though right now I am getting those messages saying that they could not publish due to network error.
    I need a break.

    Hi Lorna!
    Sorry to hear that you're getting the dreaded
    "Publish Error" message from iWeb. Lots of people
    have reported getting this type of error...and I
    don't think it ever really has much to do with the
    network...at least nothing that can be fixed. The
    fact that you have been publishing just fine up until
    now is a good thing. Some people have NEVER been
    able to publish to the web. Hopefully this problem
    will clear itself up. Maybe it's just sunspots or
    something. Probably someone thinks you need a break,
    too.
    Is this the kind of thing that would warrant me going back to the Apple Store to get an exchange???

  • I can't publish - iWeb crashes every time I try

    For the past 3 days, each time I try to publish, iWeb begins republishing all the pages and then just quits. I have been using the program for many months now and everything was fine. I added a lot of new photos. Could that be the problem? As far as I can tell, that is all I did. Any suggestions for getting back to my blog?

    I am having the same problem. I have added another page to a site and iweb crashes. I have watched and it crashes at different times during the publish. I have tried to move the page around but nothing works. The last message I got was:

  • Can I stop iWeb from making png image files for text boxes?

    I have a web page that contains one text box - the TextEdit file from which I pasted the text is 4 KB. The html file from iWeb is 12 KB. The shapeimage_2.png file is 132 KB! Is this necessary? How do I stop this. This is just text. Arial font, regular, 15 pt. The formating in the TextEdit version and the iWeb version is identical.

    Some tips from this forum for reducing the number of png files in a web site:
    1 - do not use and frames or borders, etc. around photos.
    2 - don't use any reflections.
    3 - create your own navigation bar with linked text* and turn of the iWeb Navigation bar. That's because the nav bar is all png based.
    *Put your linked text directly under the Navigation bar. Then turn off the nav bar in the Inspector window. The nav bar will disappear and the linked text will move up to the top of the page as seen in this screenshot.
    4 - use only the web safe fonts from the Font pane.
    5 - do not use drop shadow on fonts.
    6 - turn off smart quotes
    7 - if you add a jpg to a page don't resize it in iWeb as that will cause it to be converted to png. Resize it to what you need before adding to the page..
    The above will reduce the number and size of files associated with a web page quite a bit. Photos with fancy frames and reflections can generate a thumbnail png of around 110KB whereas the plain version will be a jpg of only 28KB. Although it doesn't sound like a lot, it will speed up loading of the page and be more darkside (i.e. PC) friendly.
    Run a test with a test site and publish to a folder. Then follow the hints above and publish to another folder and compare folders.

  • How can I publish iWeb site in root directory in place of a prior site?

    Hi there... I have created a family web site and published it to my .mac account. The problem is that I had previously published another site and that site remains in the 'root' directory of my account. Practically, this means that if anyone types in:
    web.mac.com/[username]
    ... they will get my old site instead of the site i wish them to see... Is there any way I can move my new site so that typing the more simplified 'root' address (above) will bring up the site I wish for them to view?

    Do you have both sites in iWeb together? If so, then simply look in the Site Organizer, select the site that you want to come up by the short URL and drag it to the top of the organizer. iWeb will make whatever site is at the top of the Site Organizer the default site. You should probably do a "Publish ALL to .Mac" after doing this so that all the files are in the right place. So once you do this you can access the default site with the short URL http://web.mac.com/yourname and then you can access the second site by using its URL directly... http://web.mac.com/yourname/iWeb/sitetwoname You could also provide links from site one to site two and vice versa to "link" the two sites together.

  • Where can you publish iWeb creations?

    Hi,
    I am very new to iWeb and am trying to learn how to make it all work. Once a page has been created in iWeb, I want to learn where I can go to publish it. Obviously, MobileMe is one option. However, I have read here at the forums all about the agony that MobileMe brings and I am not prepared to go down that route. My interest in computing will quickly evaporate if I experience anywhere near the frustrations that MobileMe users get every day.
    So what other options are available? Free is good but I'll gladly pay for quality service. My goal is just to produce a blog using iWeb.
    Thanks very much for your help.

    Free usually means not so good. I use Host Excellence for publishing but, if you are blogging and don't need an actual website, you would be better to forget iWeb and use something like Blogger or Wordpress.
    The iWeb blog is one of its least desirable features and can cause many frustrating problems. If you publish to a server other than MobileMe you will lose the commenting feature.
    You can create a far more professional and trouble free blog courtesy of Google and publishing is absolutely free....
