Changed computers... want to use old iweb site on new one

Hi Guys
I have recently changed my iMac, All my iweb files are on my idisc, but i cant open or access them in iweb again.
Is there a way to import the files so i can continue editing my site daily as i used to on my old imac??
help me please!
I am a recent mac convert!

If you still have access to your old computer you need the "domain" file located in your user library/application support/iweb.
This file can be transfered to the same location on the new computer or a location of your choice and double clicked to access iweb.
If you don't have access to the file you pretty much out of luck. You can not import the published site back into iweb.
The domain file should always be backed up.
good luck

Opening old iWeb site on new computer?

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro and now want to work on my blog with iWeb. I published my site to a folder on my old iBook and then transferred it to the Pro with a usb drive. Now how do I open my site in iWeb on the new computer?

Publishing your site to a folder is useless for your purposes. You need to transfer the Domain file which created the site to your new machine.

Old iweb site into new iweb?

Recently had to redo my computer. My iweb site is out there on mobile me and I downloaded the folder. I can't figure out how to set it up so iweb will open this site so I can update it...

Unless you have the domain file that was used to create your site you will have to rebuild it from scratch. iWeb can't read/import html file. However, Chapter 2.3 on the iWeb FAQ.org site has tips on using some of the existing files, image, audio, video, etc., from the published site in the creation of the new site.

Use old iPhones to buy new ones

Hi,
My name is Fernanda and I'm from Brazil.
I saw some pages saying that we can use our old/used iPhones to buy new ones with some descount.
I want to know if this is true and how does it works? Can I use my iPhone 5s from Brazil as a descount on a new iPhone 6 Plus in the US?
I'm going to the US at the begining of 2015, so if you could answer me I would be really gratefull.
Sorry if I wrote something wrong or not so formal, it's been quite a longe time that I don't write in English.
Thank you,
Fernanda.

Where did you see this? Apple does NOT do trade ins. They might give you some money as part of a recycling initiative which you can then use towards the purchase of a new phone.

Want to publish an old iWeb site - struggling!

Hi, hope someone can help me out.
Approx 5 years ago, I created a website for a mate in iWeb and published it using an old .Mac account. I've since changed Macs and while the website design remains, .Mac is now Mobile Me and my mate has lost the log in details. The account is still live as my mate had the Mobile Me annual fee deducted from their account only recently.
To make matters worse, we registered a domain name and pointed it to the .Mac created domain. However, my mate failed to renew the domain and so there's no way of us seeing the website.
Finally, the email address registered to the .Mac address is now also defunct.
We've now bought the same domain name back and want to publish the iWeb site to that domain, but with no Mobile Me details I'm wondering what the solution is. Any thoughts?
Cheers in advance

You will have to recreate the web site from scratch since you don't have the domain file that was used by iWeb to create the site in the first place. Chapter 2.3 on the iWeb FAQ.org site has tips on using some of the existing files, image, audio, video, etc., from the published site in the recreation of the site.
As for the domain name once you have your site created and published you can forward it to the new site. You can obtain an account on a 3rd party web hosting server like HostExcellence.com and publish you site there.
However, if you have a blog or one of the items listed below they will not be supported on a 3rd party server:
Features Unavailable When Publishing to a Non-Mac Server:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
From iWeb 3's Help
Many 3rd party servers do support php which will allow you to protect pages or the entire site. 3rd party hit counters which offer much more than just the number of visitors can be added. And you can use a 3rd party blogging service to create your blog and embed its page into one of your iWeb pages with an HTML snippet and iframe code.

I want to change my old computer by a new one. What about the Première Eléments License? Can I use the serial number on the new one? Thanks

If I change my old computer for a new one, can I use the Serial Number License of Première Éléments for the New one. Thanks for your answer. Daniel

Daniel Yvelines
More information is necessary to give you an answer that applies to your specific situation.
1. What version of Premiere Elements is involved and on what computer operating system is it running now and on what computer operating system will it be running on the second (new) computer?
2. How did you set up your first computer....purchased online download from Adobe to Window 7 64 bit, followed by install there OR installation from Premiere Elements installation disc purchased in box packaging?
True, Adobe allows a purchased serial number for a given version to be activated on no more than 2 of your computers.
That is a critical consideration. But in itself that becomes moot if other factors do not fall into place.
Looking forward to your follow up details.
Thank you.

I have changed PC's and want to use my Illustrator License from my old machine on my new one

I recently went from using a lap top with little storage to a desk top with lots of storage so I can better use my Illustrator and photoshop programs. I would like to move my license and my access to the cloud from my old PC to the new one is that possible?

AOP,
Maybe someone here has tried it and can tell you how.

iWeb stores the data in a Domain.sites2 file whose default location is shown here...

I have a rather old iMac 20" (mid 2007) and I want to upgrade the Hard drive. How do I change it? How do I transfer all my applications? May I just copy the old hd into the new one? Thanks.

I have a rather old iMac 20" (mid 2007) and I want to upgrade the Hard drive. How do I change it? How do I transfer all my applications? May I just copy the old hd into the new one? Thanks.

There are many online tutorials on how to change out the HD on a mid 2007 iMac. One of the originals is from 2007 and is Upgrade your iMac 20" or iMac 24" aluminum (mid 2007) to 1TB Hard Drive and 4 GB RAM - DIY Guide. As far as migrating your system Apple helps out with that in Setup Assistant which automatically starts when you turn on a new Mac for the first time. After you have installed the new HD you will have to format the new HD to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and then you will have to install OS X. The first time you turn it on Setup Assistant will start. Follow the directions and you will be fine. In order to restore your information you will need to backup what is on the current internal HD first. I'd recommend using Time Machine (Assuming you are using Leopard or later) AND also creating a bootable clone using either SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner.
Please complete your profile so at the very least we know what version of OS X your machine has installed.

junked old macbook for a new one. changed apple id password from a different mac. i want to login and it asks for name and password. no matter what i type i cant seem to login. why cant i just enter my apple id and password. or is there a way to change whatever name and password are on the new one from another mac so i can login. anything helps...thanks

Just open System Preferences>Users & Groups and unlock the preference pane with your root password.
Set the New Account to be an Administrator and fill in the rest of the data and then click "Create User".
I would suggest using this user to be YOU with admin capabilities. I wouldn't use the root user - too much damage could occur if you're not sure what you're doing. If you have files, etc., that you want to move to this account, simply but them in the Shared folder - or if you 'rescued' some old files and the like from your 'trashed' MBP, you can put them in your NEW admin account folders.
Hope I've explained myself well - call back with any questions!

Updating old iWeb site

Okay, so to make a long story very short, I had to reinstall the operating system on my iBook, and after doing so, iWeb no longer opens the site I made in it. Instead of opening the site, it acts as though I have never used the program before and asks me to create a new site. Is there any way to salvage my old iWeb site, or do I have to start over on it? (if it makes any difference, I don't have .Mac)
Thanks...

Hi Everyone,
I have exactly the same problem as Chad. However, I had exported my site to a folder and backed it up before I reinstalled.
I can't work out how to do it, but surely there is a way to re-import my site back into iWeb.
I've been trying the iWebSites program but that doesn't seem to be of any help in my situation.
I would find it hard to believe that Apple could have left out what should be the most basic feature of iWeb, leaving me to believe that they have done this on purpose for some stupid reason.
If anyone has a way to get around this please let me know, it would be greatly appreciated.

I have recently transferred data from my old Mac to my new one. The result was good, but I have 2 users now, whose data I want to merge into 1 single user, so to avoid having to switch from one user to the other to view and use certain files. How to do it

I have recently transferred data from my old Mac to my new one. The result was good, but I have 2 users now, whose data I want to merge into 1 single user, so to avoid having to switch from one user to the other to view and use certain files. How to do it?

Here's an easy way:
Pick the user that you want to eliminate (making sure that the remaining user has administrator privileges) and move all of the data that you want to keep into the Shared folder. Reboot or log out and login to the user you want to keep. Copy all the data from the Shared folder into your account - placing it neatly in folders (Documents, Music, Movies, etc.).
Once the data is moved, log into the account you want to delete just once more to make certain that you've grabbed all the data you want to keep. Log out and log back into your admin account and go to System Preferences>Users & Groups and delete the 'old' user.
That should do it.
