How do I get my old web1. sites into my iWeb08 sidebar so I cn work on them

My laptop was just upgraded to iweb 08 and I have 4 sites that I made using iweb1.something but my old sites are not in the sidebar to work on and update. I tried dragging the url over but it doesn't work. I am not finding any info with searches or looking through the forum
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Lynnette

Hi Lynnette,
The only way to get iWeb pages back to iWeb and edit those pages is to double-click the Domain.sites2 file where iWeb stores its files. To find that file go to
User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2
If you can’t find it here search for it with spotlight. Note that the extension .sites or .sites2 may be hidden, also search for Domain only.
To get the site showing up in iWeb just open the Domain.sites file by double clicking on it and your sites and pages will show up on the left side in the iWeb page browser. Note that the location, where you put the file, doesn’t matter.
If you don’t have this file anymore and did not make a Backup of it but the website still is on the .Mac or on another server the only thing you can do is copy&paste the content from the pages to new pages in iWeb. You shouldn’t do that by selecting all and then paste it into iWeb, it’s gonna be a mess. The best way to do it is text field by text field. The pictures can be transferred by drag&drop.
Regards,
Cédric

  • How do I get my old iweb sites into the new iweb 08 after upgrading?

    I upgraded and now the new iweb 08 does not see all my old web site pages. How do Igetnthem into the new application?

    I had a similar issure after buying a new iMac and trying to get my iweb sites onto the new computer. I called Apple tech support and they told me to copy the file "domain.site" form the user/library/application support/iweb folder from my old imac into the iweb folder located in the same directory on my new computer. Once it is copied to the new location, double click on the "domain.site" file and it should open in the new iweb program. They told me to check all the pages to make sure it works OK in the program. My problem is that the new iweb program crashed everytime I double click on the "domain" file. Hope this helps.

  • I had to do a re-install of Thunderbird after a crash. How do I get my old address book into my new one?

    I had to do a re-install of Thunderbird after a crash. How do I get my old address book into my new one? There are only a few of the contacts I had, so there must be a location where the rest are, but not sure where to look. And once I find them (with your help), how do I get them into the address book?

    If you copy abook.mab or history.mab into a profile folder, they will show up as Personal Address Book and Collected Addresses. But if the mab files have names other than abook or history, they can only be imported to TB with the use of [https://nic-nac-project.org/~kaosmos/morecols-en.html MoreFunctionsForAddressBook].

  • The photos in my IPhoto have all become mini-thumbnails and I can't open or edit them. When I print the image it comes out normal size.  How do I get the thumbnails back to the standard size and be able to work with them?

    What version of iPhoto and system are you running?  On the guess that you're running the latest iPhoto, 9.4.2, Try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the thumnails, Option #2.
    2 - It may take 2-3 attempts so don't give up after only one attempt.

  • How do I get my Old iWeb Sites off my External HD (1 Domain file) and onto my new internal HD?

    I justrecently had to replace my internal HD on my iMac. Before doing it, I backed up my 2 iWeb Sites (the Domain File) onto my external HD.
    Now I have a new Internal HD on my iMac.
    When I open my domain file located on my external HD, iWeb opens. Now I'd like to save the file back onto my internal HD.
    How do I save my 2 web sites that I now see on the left back onto my internal HD. (When I click on "File", "Save", it just saves it again on the external HD, because it's reading the file from the external HD?)
    Thanks....
    Brian

    You need to copy the domain.sites file from the external hard drive into your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder on the new hard drive. If there is no iWeb folder in the Applicaiton Support folder create one.
    Be sure it's your home library that you're working in.

  • How can I get the old view of iCal back on my MacBook Pro and iPhone?

    How can I get the old view of iCal back on my MacBook Pro and iPhone?  The Mavrick version is crisp and clean but a colored dot is not the same as a highlighted word. I rely on my iCal on my MacBook Pro and iPhone 5 to help me track which of the 8 sites I visit for my job during the week - the color coding is (was key) to organizing and tracking meetings.  I hate the upgrade! 

    If purchased through the Mac App Store then it can be installed on up to five authorized CPUs. Otherwise, it's controlled by the license that came with the software.
    To install on another computer copy the downloaded installer application to the other computer.

  • Firefox is stumbling when pages with PDF content come up. how can i get my old version3.5.6 back?

    Question
    firefox is stumbling when pages with PDF content come up. how can i get my old version3.5.6 back?

    Thanks for your response Cor el, I'll try that the next time it happens, it's completely random. One moment it functions normally then suddenly it changes its mind.
    Restarting my pc usually brings it back to normal until next time.
    One thing I've noticed, but not 100% sure there's a connection here.....I edit my websites online and log into cpanel which opens new pages in separate tabs, as it should do. It seems that this problem occurs when I'm logged into cpanel...if i'm logged in then open a new tab for regular browsing of other sites then all links on those sites also open in new tabs.
    Ican't say for sure if it's always only happened when logged into cpanel, but certainly on the last 3 occasions.
    At the moment it's behaving normally so much I can do to check your suggestions, but will try them the next time it occurs.
    One other thing I forgot to mention too....since i've had the new firefox, I've noticed that when I log into yahoo and post comments, I often find myself having to log on for each new post. Everything was fine with old firefox and there have been no other changes to my pc .

  • How do I get my old printer "HP Laserjet 4mv" to work on my newer Macs with OSX?

    How do I get my old printer "HP Laserjet 4mv" to work on my newer Macs with OSX?
    There is no HP support for this old printer. I have tried to connect via ethernet (thru ethernet router), and it does not show up in printer preferences. The printer worked fine on system 9x but when I went to my new macs with system X no luck. This is a great B&W printer that prints at 18 x 24". I would like to keep it and not junk it, but its been sitting on my desk unused for some time now. Any thoughts or JUNK IT! Thanks, R.T.

    Does anyone at Apple have help for this sort of question - I too have an old printer (HP LaserJet 5MP) that I would like to keep using on my Mac. (Mac OSX 10.6.8).
    I got it working by getting a USB cord that connects to it - but every once in a while it just stops working for weeks. The mac 'sees' it and it sends the data because the printer lights start blinking but then it just doesn't do anything. Is there no one who can tell me (and raterada) how to get some new life into these old printers. I would rather not add this (and a new toner cart) to the landfill just yet. . .

  • I hate this new version of iTunes.  How can I get the old version back?

    Anybody have any ideas how I can get the old iTunes version back?  This new one is almost impossible to use, at least the way I use it.

    In the old version, when I logged in to the store, it automatically updated the podcasts to which I was subscribed.  The new format carries no dates and very little identification so that I know what I don't yet have when I go to a new podcast.  The music I searched for was sorely lacking; I know they have more Brubeck than what I found because I have done a similar search in the past and there were many more choices.  It's just a mess trying to find what I want.  I'm afraid to plug in the iPod for fear of this new program screwing up what I have.  I don't want to have to reload all my music and reorganize it.  It's good to know I'm not alone in my dissatisfaction.  And Apple makes it very difficult to give them direct feedback.  Most sites at least have a "Contact Us" option.  I've gotten a ton of email since I posted this afternoon.  Hope that wasn't a mistake.
