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.

  • How can I edit a website that someone else did with iWeb?

    A friend of mine she has a website that her ex-husband did with iWeb. Now she wants me to edit it. How can I do this in iWeb?

    The file needed is titled domain.sites and would be located in the Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder on the ex-husband's computer.  If that file can be obtained you can edit and continue to manage the site. 
    Otherwise you'll have to start over from scratch. 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.

  • How do I add a type tag to my enclosure with iWeb?

    I encode my video with QuickTime, manage my website with iWeb, and upload it to the web with Transmit.
    A few episodes ago, my podcasts stopped updating on Podcast Alley. Tech support pointed out the problem: There are no type tags on any of my enclosures.
    From what I gather, the type tag tell you what kind file it is - ie, a .m4v
    I don't have any idea how to add a type tag to an enclosure using iWeb, and I don't even know if its possible. I would think that iWeb would do it automatically.
    Also, how do I change my feed? I originally just used the feed iWeb created:
    http://www.leilajones.com/jonescast/...esCast/rss.xml
    But then set up a feedburner feed - which I now submit when I submit anywhere new.
    http://feeds.feedburner.com/jonescast
    But how do I change the rss feed on my website with iWeb... I love the simplicity of it, but it's so limiting...
    Also, how do I change the feed in iTunes to the Feedburner feed?
    Thanks for your help,

  • How do I edit a site I created on my desktop, onto my Powerbook??

    So I created a site on my G4 Desktop using iWeb -
    then when I logged into iWeb on my new Powerbook, I couldn't access any of the sites (which are stored on my iDisk)
    How do I open or transfer over the page info to be able to edit from my second computer which also has iWeb?
    Is there a way??
    I published my sites to folder, then copied that folder over - and iWeb wont let me open it... any advice??

    wow - not entirely show HOW it worked - but it did!
    Thanks!!
    Now this is merely copying today's version onto my powerbook correct?
    Let me explain -
    I just transferred sites from my Powerbook to my G5 office computer...
    My sites now open up in both...
    But my Question is - If I go back and edit something on my Powerbook - the G5 Office computer version won't change, correct?
    There is no way to sync the pages up via iDisk yet?
    AND LASTLY - to confuse matters -
    My original iWeb pages are on my G4 Desktop at home... So I have three Computers that I'd like my sites to be on...
    If I go add my G4 desktop sites to my powerbook sites and vice versa - they won't erase whats already there, right?
    And the duplicating on that program you gave me, thats not duplicating anything on the idisk, right? just merely converting sites so they can be transferred?
    Let me know if I lost you... LOL

  • 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!

    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.

  • How do I edit FrontPage sites with Dreamweaver 8 without messing them up?

    I have to edit a friend's Front Page site using Dreamweaver
    without messing up her ability to publish also.
    I'm running Dreamweaver 8.0. I already installed an extension
    for dreamweaver mx called "Import Front Page Site Wizard for
    Dreamweaver" but it doesn't seem to work. Is there a version of
    this for DW8? When I "import" the site using IFPSWFD it says
    restart DW to complete the process, and when I restart it says the
    new site "has been added" but I don't see it in my list of DW
    sites.
    Does anyone have tips on using DW8 to edit FP sites without
    corrupting them?
    Thanks for your help!

    i won't touch front page sites where the client/user/owner
    intends to keep
    on using frontpage. Not even with a borrowed ten foot pole.
    if they will keep there fingers out of it, yes; it can be
    worked on. If they
    want to keep using fp, no because in cleaning it up i'll
    break it as far as
    they and fp are concerned. Or worry about breaking it which
    is worse and not
    worth the aggravation.

  • How can i transfer a site i made on iweb on my old computer onto my new computer?

    hello,

    Locate the Domain.sites2 file that's located in the  Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder
    Click to view full size
    on your old labtop and copy it to the same folder on your new Mac (if there's no iWeb folder there then create one first).

  • How do i edit a site created with iweb

    I created a site last year with iweb, but now when I try to open it, it only lets me create a new site.  I can see the thumbnail in my finder view, but cannot edit it. Help.
    Thanks in advance

    Try this:
    To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • How do I edit the CSS of a Dynamic Menu with Dreamweaver and Business Catalyst.

    I've watched tutorials on v2 menu module and it obviously was not made for someone just starting out in Business Catalyst. I want to edit the CSS of my Dynamic Module, preferably V1, but if I have to use version 2 I will. The problem I am running into is that the width of the menu I am trying to make is not big enough. The menu is extremely simple, I could whip it up with css and html in a matter of minutes. Just black words horizontal layout with a dark red hover color and selected state. I can change all that in Business Catalyst Site Manager just fine, however, the width of my menu when I look at it on the site, is way too small. Probably only 750px wide. I want it 1000px wide, but I haven't the faintest idea of where to find that information to change. When I add the menu module to my html code i get this: {module_menu,1534789}. How do I add or find css/html to edit the properties? I know I can add classes to the items inside the menu in the Site Manager, but where do I find the html code that shows those names?
    I'm obviously missing something important and probably really easy, so I hope someone can help.
    Thanks, Evan Schmidt

    I went ahead and built the navigation without a module, easier than wasting all this time trying to figure it out.
    But initially my main problem was when I add the Menu module to my html in dreamweaver, this:  {module_menu,1534789} would be put in my html instead of css/html code. Now if publish my site and look at the page source, it shows the css/html, but it doesn't in dreamweaver. So is that the only way to edit the css/html code, copy the page source and replace the {module_menu,1534789} with the copied code in dreamweaver?

  • How do I edit a PDF file that was created with Acrobat 6

    I was given a PDF catalog file from one of my manufactures to use on my web  site, I was told that I need to edit the file and take out the last page which  is for my eyes only not the public, but the way they instructed me to do so has  not worked, so does anybody have an idea on how to do this?
    Also they have tried to  send me a corrected file with the last page removed but the file size is to big  to be sent through email. Any help would be great. Thank You

    To see if there is security, open the document, go to File>Properties>Security. It will tell you what is allowed and what is not allowed.
    Keep in mind that Acrobat Pro is not $200 unless you have a qualifying older version to upgrade from. If not, it's more like $449.

  • How do I edit photos  stored on external wifi drive with iPad?

    I have stored many photos on a Seagate Wifi external drive and would like to edit them using my iPad.  Only photos stored on Camera Roll come up for editing.  Can anyone help solve this problem please.

    I don't have either the device or the associated app, but from a quick glance at the Seagate site it looks like you would have to follow a three- or four-step process:
    * Use the Seagate Media App to copy photo(s) from the external drive to your Camera Roll.
    * Use the editing program of your choice to edit it/them.
    * Use the Seagate Media App to copy the edited photo(s) back to the external drive
    * Optionally, remove the editied photo(s) from the Camera Roll.

  • How can I edit events in on the iPad syncing with mobileme beta version?

    We use MobileMe to sync events in Cal between an iMac, a MacBook and 2 iPhones. We just migrated to the beta version of Calendar in Mobile me and it works fine. We share calendars between our machine successfully using MobileMe (Beta).
    We just got a brand new iPad (WiFi 16GB) and configured it without problem except one. All the events are visible but cannot be edited on it. We can create a new event on the iPad but it won't show on the iMac.
    This issue does not exist with the Contacts or the Mails
    I guess this requires a specific parameter setting in MobileMe in this case. What do we need to change?
    Thank you in advance for helping.

    Actually we just found how to configure the iPad in the information provided by Apple in the MobileMe page (Calendar Beta for iPad)

  • How do i edit a flashdrive usb power point presentation with a pptx file
