  • Editing Client's iWeb pages made by another Mac user

    So I'm doing this for a client and assumed I'd be able to import the web pages someone else did on their Mac, on their iWeb into my Mac and my iWeb program. If I could do that, it would be easy.
    Problem is it doesn't look like Apple wants people working on other people's iWeb pages. There is no open file, open folder, or import functionality that I can see. And of course always the path of least resistance is to publish it to your own .Mac.
    I imported it into Dreamweaver but that seems to be like importing ImageReady web pages. They don't see eye to eye and it becomes a mess without trying too hard because I don't know all the code. Of course if I knew how to code myself like a bat out of ****, this would all be so simple, right? Then there is the idea of what will happen if the other mac user comes back to change or overwrite the work done outside of iWeb.
    Thanks in advance for any support.

    Of course you can edit an iWeb site created on a Mac on your Mac. You don't do it by importing however. All you need is a copy of their domain.sites file, where all the data is stored and you can easily edit it. Make a copy from User/Library/Application Support/iWeb and place the copy in the same place on your Mac and you will be able to edit away and then re-publish.
    iWeb is not an html editor so cannot import, but if you have the domain.sites file you can do it.

  • How do I edit a site I made in iWeb 06 with iWeb 08?

    I have an older site that I made in iWeb 06 that I would love to edit in my newer iWeb 08. Here's the catch - iLife 08 is on another, newer machine and I have already created two sites with my iLife 08. Is this possible to do?

    Easily done. You just need to move the Domain.sites file from the older machine running iWeb06 to the new machine.
    Make a few backup copies of this Domain file, because it contains all of your work, created in iWeb. It lives on your hard drive in your Home folder's Library/Application Support/iWeb. Once you have backups of this file, transfer it to the new machine using an external device of some sort (flash drives work good for this). Put it on the desktop and double-click it. iWeb08 will launch, prompting you to update this Domain file. Click update, and you are on your way.
    You can put the domain file in it's default location, on the new machine (Home folder/Library/Application Support/iWeb), or keep it in it's own folder.

  • Mainstage 2 crashing when loading concert made on another mac

    My Mainstage [2.2.2 on Lion] crashes when I try to load a concert created on someone else's mac. I have tried loading it several times but it crashes every time. Any ideas why this might be? I would post a crash report but it never finally crashes just endless spinning colour wheel and 'stuck' loading status bar!

    Hi thecamptain,
    If the version of the concert you´re try to load is different than yours than probably that´s the problem.
    Some missing plug-in may lead to it. Can you tell what´s the content of the concert? guitar setup, how many patchs, etc.
    You could try this:
    Export (Command + E) each patch or export the set by click on it
    Then Import (Comand + I) it to a new concert in your Mac
    Post your results
    Hope i´ve helped you

  • Made on a mac icon

    I noticed that the made on a mac is actually an active link. It takes the viewer to a the Apple moble me site.
    https://auth.apple.com/authenticate?service=DockStatus&realm=primary-me&returnUR L=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5tZS5jb20vd28vV2ViT2JqZWN0cy9Eb2NrU3RhdHVzLndvYS93YS90cmFtcG9saW 5l&destinationUrl=
    I looked but could find, is there a way to disable this link? I'd prefer that my viewers don't go to another site from my home page.
    I'd like to promote that the web site was made on a mac, but don't want them going to another link.

    Jeff,
    You can do it with a bit of jiggerypokery. To begin with delete the default image in iWeb. Now all you have to do is insert it again as a normal image. To find it on your mac, open Applications in Finder and then right-click (ctrl-click) on the iWeb icon. Choose Show Package Contents and open the Contents folder followed by the Resources folder. You should now find loads and loads of image files (and a few others). You need to search for a folder called English.Iproj. Within that folder is some more images and lots of folders. Search for two images called:
    mwmac_white.tiff and mwmac.tiff. Copy and paste them to your desktop (or anywhere else). Now go back to iWeb and add them as normal images.
    Hope that helps.

  • Upload site to .Mac made in another app

    Is it possible to upload a site made in another application to .Mac without disrupting an established iWeb site? I have a domain name for my club site (made in iweb '08) but have made other sites with another program. I am too frightened of losing the first site to even try!

    You can put any webpage on iDisk, either in the Sites (= HomePage) folder or the Web>Sites (= iWeb) folder.
    iWeb and HomePage create a index.html file in the root of the server.
    You can overwrite the file if you want or leave it.
    Best practice is to put your own pages in a folder of their own.
    You have to experiment to see how iWeb/HomePage handle their files.
    Here's how I do it: http://web.mac.com/wyodor/

  • Does anyone know how I can edit a site created by another user on my imac?

    Hi,
    We are a family new to our imac. One of us created a site with iweb. Now I want to get to the site and edit it? I don't see the site when I start iweb...Can someone provide an answer and any recommendations on how to set up multiple sites so that we can share editing privileges?
    Thanks!
    imac   Mac OS X (10.4.10)  

    elegantKB,
    Welcome to Apple's Discussions area, and congratulations on your new iMac!
    Here's what you need to know about creating/sharing websites with the iWeb application; iWeb stores everything you create with the app in a single file, called Domain.sites. It lives on the hard drive of the computer that created it here. If you duplicate/copy this file and move it to another Mac using the same version of iWeb, that machine will open it and you will be able to edit the site. If you configure the second machine to publish to the same .Mac account (assuming you are using .Mac), you can not only edit the site, but you can also publish the same from two separate machines.
    You will need to keep track of the latest version of this Domain file if you share it.
    Be careful with this file and back it up often. It contains every single page and/or Site that you create with iWeb.
    See these notes for more details on how to edit and publish the same iWeb site from two separate machines.

  • IWeb - Moving iweb site from one mac to another mac.

    Hi,
    I am using iWeb 08 and would like to move the iWeb site that was created on one mac to another mac to continue editing on the other mac. Any one now how to do this.
    Thanks
    tsofa

    Hi Tsofa,
    You need to locate and copy the Domain.site2 file which iWeb creates.
    By default this is usually located in User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/
    You can copy this to any location on the other mac. As long as you use this file to start iWeb, it will recognise it as your default.
    If you want to create a new one, but still keep the old, just rename the file and start iWeb, which will generate a new Domain.sites2 file

  • Transfer site from another mac

    how can I transfer into iWeb a site that was designed with iWeb on another Mac?
    thx

    If you do not need to edit it on 2 or more computers but simply want to move it from 1 computer to an other :
    locate the iWeb file in the Finder : user(you) / Library / Application Support / iWeb / Domain.sites2
    copy this file to the same default location on the other computer: user(that one) / Library / Application Support / iWeb
    Kind regards,

  • My URL has been duplicated since moving my site from another Mac

    When I originally made my company site it was just a normal www.website.com and thats how it appeared in the address bar.  I then moved the site to another Mac (cant quite remember the steps I used) and did some updates to it and republished it and now it appears as www.website.com/WebSite.com/Home.html.  Nothing has changed with my hosting company or anything like that.  It literally changed just from moving it to anoter computer which is why I suspect that something happened with the folders or something with iWeb.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You want to have your cake and eat it too?
    Well, you have to choose. Do it the iWeb way, the situation you have now, or your way, publish to a folder and upload the content of that folder to the server.
    As it was before.
    You can't have both.
    BUT.
    As always, there still is a way to eat the cake.
    Read this :

    It works. I know, I baked the cake.

  • How to open and edit my sites (made on my old computer) on my new Macbook?

    Hi, I have bought a Macbook and I would like to edit my Sites which
    I have done so far on my iMac G5. How should I do this?
    And if I edit them later on my laptop will they automatically save on iMacG5?

    this is very easy. you need to get the following file from your old computer:
    /Users/USERNAME/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites
    you need to copy the domain file!, copy it to the same folder on your new computer (if the folder is not there then open iweb once, do something, save and close). replace the existing file on the macbook with your G5 domain file.
    now open iweb up and your website is there! see here for a better description:

  • How do I restore my iPad to a previous backup made on another computer (Mac)?

    How do I restore my iPad to a previous backup made on another computer (a Mac)?
    I made copies of the backup in the /mobilesync folder and put them on a hard drive. Now I'm in an endless cycle of restoring/syncing which keeps erasing data off of my iPad on the new computer (which is just a hard drive reformat...it's the same computer, technically, but in theory brand new after a hard drive formatting).
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Normally backups are incremental, and you can only restore the latest. EXCEPT that a backup of an earlier version is archived, and the first backup of the new version is thus complete. You should be able to restore a 6.1.4 backup to iOS 7. Click the Restore Backup button. The dialog that comes up should have a dropdown where you can select a backup to restore. If the old one does not show up it cannot be restored.
    However, since you appear to have a Mac, if you use Time Machine you can restore an earlier backup over the current one from your Time Machine history.
    You can also back up to iCloud, even if you don't sync to it. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5262
    One well hidden feature (for future use) is archiving backups. If you go to iTunes Preferences/Devices, right click on the current backup and choose "Archive". The next backup you make will be a competely new one, and the old one will be preserved and can be restored at any time.

  • Can I edit a project on one Mac remotely from another Mac?

    As far as I know, you can access and control a Mac from another Mac that is not on the same network, say if you are travelling with a MacBook Air and need to access files and applications on your iMac at home.
    I'm wondering if it's possible to work with Final Cut Pro X in this way. So you could access the project on an iMac from a MacBook Air, see the screen of the iMac and enjoy all the power of the iMac for editing and exporting in FCPX while controlling it from your MacBook Air.
    If so, that would be so convenient, whether it be while travelling or even when at home and wanting to make a quick adjustment to something from the MacBook Air resting on your lap.
    Has anyone here ever done this or know if it's possible?
    Thanks!

    There are ways you can access the iMac and the screen and the software but it's not useable as an editing platform. The response time over the Internet is way, way, way to slow. Plus no keyboard shortcuts work. Everything has to be mouse driven.
