Godaddy and Mobileme

I have successfully hooked up my domain name with my iWeb page, but the problem is that when I go to www.domain.com, it's fine - but when I go to simply domain.com (without the www.) it goes to the Godaddy domain page.

I understand that godaddy.com has a hosting option, but it doesn't appear that it is friendly to Mac users -- can you even use their web design program if you have a Mac?
Countless Mac users have sites hosted at Godaddy, no problem. The do not use Godaddy's web design program, they use iWeb or some other Mac app.
Or is it possible to use godaddy as the host and design the site in iWeb?
Yes.

IWeb and godaddy and MobileMe

I'm not sure how to reconcile this b/c web design is completely new to me.
I just purchased a domain name on godaddy.com, and need to find a host.
I understand that godaddy.com has a hosting option, but it doesn't appear that it is friendly to Mac users -- can you even use their web design program if you have a Mac?
I have iWeb 08, and would like to use it to design my new site, and I do not have a MobileMe account.
Do I need to get a MobileMe account and use that as the host in order to create a website in iWeb, and then point godaddy to the MobileMe account as the host? Or is it possible to use godaddy as the host and design the site in iWeb?
Thanks!

I have iWeb '08 and just switched from Mobileme to GoDaddy and using Filezilla. Now when I make changes through iWeb it doesn't actually publish to my desktop folder. In fact, it doesn't publish at all but says that it did.

Choose the destination in the publish settings page as shown in the second example on this page...

Up-to-date contacts on iPhone and MobileMe won't won't update the Mac

Hi,
I just got an iPhone GS and there's a glitch that's driving me mad. (I had an iPod Touch before this so it's not all new.)
First of all I had duplicate Calendars and Contacts ("On my Mac" and MobileMe) so deleted those on my mac by following the instructions here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1922950 which just left MobileMe.
After a bit of fiddling and resetting the Calendars now work so that when I update the iPhone it appears on the Mac, and vice versa.
However, this is not the case with Contacts, and since repeating the process (resetting the Mac, deleting on iPhone and starting again) now if I make changes to contacts on the iPhone they do update MobileMe, but MobileMe does not update the Mac. When I update MobileMe on the website it won't update the Mac either.
I've done everything I can think of/have read about and would really love to get this working as it should.
Many thanks,
D

Yet more information:
I went ahead and clicked "Replace" and then got the following error message:
"You are attempting to reset Contacts on MobileMe from this computer.
Contacts have recently been reset on Mobileme. Are you sure you want to reset the Contacts on MobileMe?"
But nothing changed (didn't even lose the up-to-date contact changes on the iPhone) but then I get the error messages again and again and again...
Please help!
Thanks,
D

Back to my Mac - will it work between iCloud and MobileMe?

Just updated my MBookPro to Lion so it would work with iCloud and my new 4S. Everything moved over OK but there's one thing I'm concerned about: will Back to My Mac work now between machines that are not part of the iCloud account? I ask this because my Mac Pro at the office is still on Snow Leopard (and may remain that way, since I use it for editing+graphics and prefer to keep it clean and stable) and I use BtMM all the time to look at the MacPro while I'm at home. I took the precaution of logging out of MobileMe on the MacPro before I moved the account to iCloud on my laptop so there wouldn't be any weirdness. I imagine that if I went and logged in on it now I would no longer have the option of using BtMM on the same Apple ID anymore, yes? I have another Apple ID that's still under MobileMe, so I wonder if I could start using that one now on both machines under the old MobileMe system pref and link the two machines back together?

UPDATE: forget about signing in with a different MobileMe account once you've signed in to iCloud; even though both prefs exist, Lion will NOT let you sign in to both iCloud and MobileMe at the same time, even if they're different accounts.
Grrrr...guess it's back to Remote Desktop for me.

When I opened iweb it opened as a file I deleated. I have a published website with godaddy and would like to update. How can I open the existing iWeb app to the site that is already published?

You cannot retrieve the already published site as iWeb CANNOT open it - it has no import facility.
You need your domain.sites file, which you can find under User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites. You do not need any kind of account for this because it is your domain.sites file that resides on the hard drive of your Mac anyway. Find this file and you can alter your website.
Use a spotlight search to try and find it and if this does not work you can download something called Find Any File. If you really can't find it, then you'll have to start from scratch because iWeb cannot open a site that is already published.

Outlook 2007 Calendar and MobileMe

I have one need with this which is synced calendar across iphone 3G, Dell laptop running vista ultimate and mobileme. At first it worked perfectly.
This morning I noticed that Outlook would show any appointment made on iphone or on mobileme calendar but then delete them almost immediately. Even opening the appointment (made on iphone/mobileme ) in Outlook while it was still visible and clicking save and close did not work. Like other users I got the message that a data file had not closed properly but I had got that occasionally from Outlook before iphone 3g or mobileme were used with the laptop. A strange thing is that appointments made in Outlook are synced with iphone and mobileme calendar. At the moment it seems that Outlook isn't happy receiving data in the form it gets it from mobileme but will send it happily and effectively. Being generally suspicious I look warily at Redmond (I can remember the non fatal error message in DOS). But the balance would seem to say that this is an Apple issue: it needs swift and decisive resolution.
Message was edited by: generallysuspicious

An update: did the scanpst routine. It only reported minor errors. Repaired anyway. Problem persists but I noticed a new twist. While the appointment made on the iphone disappears from Outlook shortly after appearing following sync, the appointment is visible in the TO Do Bar for longer. Once Outlook is shut down and restarted it also disappears from there.
If this issue could be resolved my needs of calendar management would be met. As it stands the Mobileme is usable but does necessitate updating Outlook manually. I suppose I could abandon Outlook. Maybe the guys in infinity loop are getting even with Redmond?

Multiple folders created by iCloud and MobileMe in Outlook

iCloud and MobileMe have created a slew of calendar and contact folders in my Outlook. Several problems were created.
The default calendar and contact list are not the ones opened when Outlook launches. I have to manually select the iCloud folder in each. The iCloud contact list is identical to the one that used to be my personal folder contact list (this is good). The default file folder in Outlook is still the personal (no contacts shown), but I get some scary warning from Outlook if I try to change it to iCloud.
The personal folder on my computer (even though it exists) shows NO contacts and no calendar entries. It should show several thousand contacts and be identical to my iCloud contact list (at least starting off).
Outlook will not let me delete the MobileMe generated calendars or contact lists. The delete option is grayed out. In most cases I cannot even open the calendars that MobileMe created. I get a “The set of folders cannot beopened. The information store cannot be opened”.
Any ideas?

The problem is...I can find each individual folder by using "show in finder"...but I can't find where they all are! I think they may be the thumbnails from iCloud Photos??

IPhoto Albums and MobileMe Albums - Synchronization (Sync)

I am very interested in how the iPhoto and MobileMe operate together.
I like that if I publish an album to MobileMe, those photos are then kept in sync with that MobileMe album and vice versa. If a change is made to the photo in iPhoto, the same change takes place in MobileMe. If a change is made in MobileMe, that change is pushed to the copy in iPhoto. I like this!
But here is something I would like that I am having trouble accomplishing.
I want to create an iPhoto album (smart or otherwise) and publish it to MobileMe. I would then like any photos ADDED to that album to also be published the same MobileMe album. Can this be done?
Ideally, any photos also posted directly to the MobileMe album would be pushed back to the iPhoto album as well.

No. Instead of adding the photo to the album just drag it into the MMe gallery and it will update the online gallery.

Syncing with iCloud AND MobileMe

I have 3 Macs, all of them sync to the same MobileMe account. Only one is running Lion (for now). If I move to iCloud on one of my mac, will that mean I will no lover be able to sync to the 2 macs running MobileMe?

I have the same problem. My MacPro isn't on Lion, as I have lots of software that isn't compatible yet. But I have 10.7.2. on my MacBookPro and iOS5 on my iPhone and iPad.
I would like to go to iCloud for those devices that are capable to run it, but I do not want to loose sync services for my MacPro which is on 10.6.8. Will iCloud and MobileMe be in sync until 30.06.2012, so I can use them in parallel, or do I have to wait until all computers are updated to Lion?

Aperture 3 and MobileMe are now solved?

I am still on with Aperture 2.1.4 and have just had trouble with creating a new MobileMe gallery again, as Aperture remarks after it has uploaded the previews and made the gallery - til there is all fine - it could not communicate with MobileMe. This comes further if I like to made some changes to the gallery within Aperture and try to sync them - nothing happens, only the error comes up. This bug is til I upgraded my system to SL and Aperture 2.1.4. Any idea? Does Aperture 3 still has this bug or is it solved?

Okay ... further to my original note ... has anyone seen this?
Using Aperture 3 and MobileMe ... do you need to create unique passwords for each album?
(that seemed to fix the generic password on multiple albums)
No I have not seen this kind of problem, and no you shouldn't need unique passwords for each album.
I have specific groups that I regularly share sets of albums with. When I create a new MobileMe album, I specify which group has access (or limit the access later via the Aperture-MobileMe album settings). I established the group name (and password) once. For subsequent albums I just specify that group. If I use the Tell A Friend... option to announce a new album, it will share the group/username and password.
IF I enable uploading additional photos via e-mail, that does create a unique/generic e-mail address for each album -- has to as you want any photos to upload to THAT album.
I know this answers your question, but quite likely does not provide a solution. If you can be more specific as to EXACTLY what steps you are taking I might be able to replicate your process and offer a specific solution. Hopefully the pieces I've offered may help you find a solution though?
Best wishes!

Godaddy and mail.app

hello,
i've been having some troubles for a while and looking for any magical advice. i have a hosting/email package with godaddy that i'm happy with except their outgoing mail server which never works reliably for me (hit or miss). i have tried all i know how (call in support, all the various ports, etc.) and never resolved it. i have tried to use my local isp servers and they're not much better. as a note gmail is very reliable for me so i can have accounts that work well. is there any known issue between godaddy and mail.app or any other info someone might have that can help me? i'm not located in the us if it helps. if the answer is godaddy's outgoing servers are not good which i have heard does anyone have a recommended option? i need to use my own domain and not a gmail account and anyways i don't particularly like the way gmail works but their reliability i can't complain. i'm thinking also there might be some kind of outgoing server i can sign up for even pay if it will work with my godaddy mailboxes. any thoughts and thanks so much,
rick

thanks for the replies. yes that seems to work the best but unfortunately in my case not quite good enough. i was never able to fully resolve the issue even after much help from godaddy. all i could do was switch my outgoing server to someone else. but i will gladly try it again one day hoping it might work a bit better for me.
thanks,
rick

Faces / Places and Mobileme Gallery question

Hi all, i could not find much on this but my question is when using faces / places and Mobileme gallery does this actually take up hard drive space ? With faces and places does that actaully create another image or is it just linked to your main library ? And for Mobileme Gallary does that actually download the images to your Mac ?
Thanks

Drop them on the desktop then upload directly from the MoMe Album.
Allan

IPhoto 11 and mobileme

I'd like to know if you modify (add faces, change order, delete, edit) photos on an album which syncs with mobileme gallery will it auto syncs the changes to the mobileme gallery also?
As far as I can see when I changed the content of an album that is also published to mobileme nothing happens...
Explain: I've made some changes and after 24h period nothing happens to mm gallery (the photos that I delete doesn't delete)
Message was edited by: SpilioG

I am not happy. I hope the guy who wrote the new codes will just talk with the people who wrote the iPhoto 9 codes and also talk with the guys who wrote the MobileMe Gallery codes. It gives people the impression that the left hand does not know what the right hand is doing. This may affect the Apple stock price. Wonder if Steve is aware of the problem; does he use iPhoto 11 and MobileMe; does he permit it; and what is he doing about it. This has been taking way too long to resolve.
