Changing personal domain from enom to .mac--what did I leave out?

Help! I have been reading all of the great advice posted, but am still not having success. I'm sure I probably left something out, but this is what I have done so far:
I am changing my domain name with enom to .mac and have made the following changes: I have changed the www to web.mac.com/mymembername/iweb/mysitename and chose url redirect. I also put web.mac.com for the cname alias, with mydomain.com (no www) in the address portion. Was I suppose to edit the dns server info by adding the numeric equivalent of my personal domain? Also, I have seen opposing opinions on whether or not to change the A address(s).
I have also confirmed that .mac recognizes my domain name. However, when I type in my address, it turns into the web.mac....but an Apple error page shows error code #424 trouble syncing...etc. What does that mean?
By the way, it has been 48 hours since my changes (above.) I would so appreciate some help. Thanks!

I had already tried that one and got this...
below is screen shot of what is on the new mac mini
and what is on the external drive now connected to the new mac mini..
There are no media files on the mac mini just the library files and on external just media files..
Do I need to copy anything over from the old mac mini ? xml files ? .. the itunes folder on old mini is about 840mb in size which looks to have artwork ect ? .. I am fairly computer literate, but this one has me stumped.. ?
thanks for help

    HDMI cable connected from TV to Mac, what do I click on to get the movie on my laptop screen to show on my TV screen?

    When you first hook it up it will probably have the display set in Extended Desktop mode. The Menu Bar and Dock will be on the MacBook display and your background screen on the TV but you can move the cursor onto the TV screen.
    In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the TV and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen.
    The TV will now have the Dock and Menu Bar and windows will open on it. But you can move the cursor to the MacBook screen and move windows from the TV over to the MacBook screen.
    You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the TV your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.
    Or if you want to use the MacBook’s keyboard and trackpad to work on the MacBook screen while showing it on a TV you can check the Mirror Display box on the lower left hand side of the Arrangement tab under the two monitors box. That will give you the same screen at the same resolution on both the MacBook and the external monitor.

  • Remove Personal Domain from MMe

    I have added a Personal Domain to a MMe account. However, the domain transfer process is going to take a few more days, because of the grace period built into the process. As soon as I added the personal domain name in MMe (I have not clicked the "Done" button.) all of the page icons in iWeb turned red, indicating they needed to be republished. I have not republished. I can still get to my site using the web.me.com/username address, of course. I have made a a number of changes that I would like to publish.
    Do I need to wait until the domain transfer process has been completed? I have not done anything to point the domain name to the MMe site at either the previous or future registrar.
    Can I remove the Personal Domain from MMe until the domain process has been completed, and manage the site as before? If so, how do I do this?
    If I go ahead and republish with the domain name in the MMe account (before the transfer process has been completed, and with the personal domain still associated with the account) can I still access it using the web.me.com/username address?
    Thanks...

    Log into your MME account and go to the Personal Domain option. It has remove on the right side and just click on that to remove it.
    Whether your domain name is linked to your site or not, you can always get to your site by using the url web.me.com/username/sitename.
    If you are using iWeb, then your site will always only ever be published to your iDisk and MME and not your domain - it is only an illusion because your domain name is forwarded to your MME account.

  • Delete personal domain from iWeb

    now that .mac moved to .me when ever i post a site it publishes to the personal domain that is listed in my profile but i don't want it published there but rather to the automatic url that mac provides (i.e. http://web.mac.com/username/Site...)
    how do i removed a personal domain from my profile?
    i found no preferences within iweb to do this, nor was i able to do it when i log into my mobile me settings (there i see the personal domain but no way to remove it)
    thanks!

    Do you have a domain name that you have set up with iWeb and MobileMe? If you linked that name to just the default MobileMe URL, http://web.mac.com/username/, then any new site that is published will become the default that the domain name sends you to. You need to point the domain name to the specific site, http://web.mac.com/username/yoursite_foldername/index.html, in order to isolate the other sites from your domain name.

  • How do you change the format from Windows to Mac

    Does anyone know how to change the format from Windows to Mac? When I first bought my iPod I had windows but now would like to change this. Also is anyone aware why some tracks pause for 2 seconds and then carries on.

    Restore the iPod in iTunes for Mac. Restoring will erase and reformat the iPod's hard drive, reload the software with the Mac version and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to sync using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes

  • Can't view my personal domain html hosted on .mac mobleme

    I just set up a mobleme or .mac trial account because I am now using iWeb to redisign my web page. When I publish the site it gives me a message saying I can now view my web page at http://mywebdomain.com but when I click the menu to view it the web browser takes me to the adress but it is the .mac page and it says it doesn't exist. When I check my .mac personal settings the page is listed as my personal domain and the iweb file is listed in my iDisk file menu. so where is my site and how do I fix this problem?

    Okay, so have you entered your domain name into the personal domain setting in your MMe account?
    Have you been to your domain name registrar or hosting company and changed the DNS settings so that you can set-up CNAME to re-direct your domain name to MMe? If not you need to do this before you can view your site. It will be something similar to www, then pick CNAME from a drop down menu or fill in and then web.me.com and CNAME is set. It can take up to 24 hours to take effect though.
    If you have not altered these settings then you need to for your site to be visible. However, you can still view your site by going to web.me.com/username/sitename. All sites can be seen like this even if you have set up a personal domain.

  • How do you set up more than one Personal domain name to your .Mac account

    I have registered 3 domain names changed all the cnames to web.mac.com.
    Now on the menu to set Personal domain on my .Mac account it only lets you add 0ne Domain name?
    How do we add more or is there a limit?

    You can only set one domain name. You can of course use other means to forward the other two to the one you have put in your .Mac Account Settings.

  • I cannot publish my to personal domain from iWeb via the publish button.

    Ive registered the domain at mobile me and entered the cname at the registrar and still nothing. when i publish and its done i go to visit now and the site comes up but when i hit a link from somewhere else like google, i get the old unupdated site.

    Firstly, no you do not register a domain name at MobileMe. MobileMe does not register domain names, it just hosts them. So what you actually did was enter your domain name into your MobileMe account under the Personal domain name settings.
    Have you checked for sure that you have set up CNAME forwarding correctly? Check that you have as you need to forward your domain name (alias) to web.me.com (host).
    Sometimes CNAME forwarding can take a little time, so you might find that your updated site is there now. What you can do however is go back into iWeb and publish the site again, so click publish all to MobileMe and this might work having set up to connect with your domain name.
    You could also go and check your iDisk to see if the most current site is in your iWeb sites folder.

  • Change my iPod from windows to mac

    I am trying to change my iPod from a windows format to a mac. What do I need to do?

    My daughter recently got an iPod Nano as a gift. Unfortunately, it was formatted for a PC and we are unable to load songs onto it from our Mac. If we simply reset the Nano, will we have the option to format it for the Mac? I realize we will lose all the content during the reset, but it is more important for her to be able to load her new music from the Mac.

  • Just bought a mac.. want to change the ipod from win to mac

    how can i do that and save the playlist, purchases, etc ??

    You can transfer all of your song files from iPod to Mac using a third-party utility. Macs can read the Windows format, so it should work even if the iPod is formatted for Windows.
    The free utility of choice for Mac seems to be Senuti.
