How do I transfer iweb site to new macbook pro?

I used migration assistant to transfer from old macbook to new macbook pro. Both are using lion. When I open iWeb on the new computer it does not show my site. Both computers are connected by firewire, where do I find the files? This site is not published to mobile me, it is hosted by godaddy.
thanks
Joe

In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder. Once you've unhidden the library it's a simple matter of copying the domain file from your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder on the old Mac to the same folder on the new one.  You may have to create an iWeb folder on the new Mac if there is not one.
For opening your domain file in Lion for the first time 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.
Just launch the applicaiton, 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.
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 compiiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
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 transfer itunes to my new macbook pro

    I have just received a new macbook pro (Merry Christmas) and am trying to figure out how to transfer my music from my iPhone to the MBP.

    You can copy only your User folder using Migration Assistant.
    This will bring over all your user data (emails, application settings, bookmarks, Music, Movies, Documents, etc.)
    Copying the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder will copy the entire iTunes library.
    This is done when using Migration Assistantl to copy your user folder.

  • How do I transfer Aperture to my new macbook pro?

    Hi, I've just bought a powerbook pro (no optical drive) and I have aperture 3 on cd which I've installed on my iMac. How do I get Aperture 3 on my new powerbook?
    Thanks

    It is safer to install Pro Applications like Aperture by running the installer than migrating them.
    Just for completeness's sake two more options:
    You can also download the Aperture Trial installer - it will install the same version you are having on CD - download from here:   Aperture 3.1 Trial 
    Then update it immediately from the Apple  menu> Software update, launch it, and enter your serial number(s). Don't try to launch Aperture on your libraries, before you have run software update.
    Or,  use Disk Utility to create a Disk Image from your CD and copy  this to a thumbsdrive. Then open the disk image on your new Mac and run the installer.
    Just in case, that you get an error message "check with the developer to make sure Aperture works with this version of Mac OS X" don't worry, some of the older installer DVDs give his error message, because a developer certificate expired. This easily solved by resetting the date before installing to a date before February 2012, see the thread below.

  • How do I install iWeb on the NEW Macbook Pro running Lion?

    I just got my MBP replaced from the one running Snow Leopard to one running Lion.  I have a web site that I run with iWeb and I am trying to figure out how I can go about installing iWeb on Lion.

    Here's the iWeb forum:

  • I have recently had to fire my web designer who was using iWeb.  Now I'm trying to figure out how to get the site to open in iWeb on my new MacBook Pro.  Is there a way?

    I have recently had to fire my web designer who was using iWeb.  Now I'm trying to figure out how to get the site to open in iWeb on my new MacBook Pro.  Is there a way?

    Firstly iWeb CAN'T IMPORT any kind of published html code as it has no import facility.  You can however add html code, javascript and css by selecting the html snippet and placing it on your page the entering the code in here and clicking on Apply.  You DO NOT create a shape as you say - you use the html snippet and place your code in there.
    There are not really a lot of ways in which you can write code - if you want to enter small amounts of code, then you would use an ordinary text editor to do this such as Text Edit on a Mac or Text Wrangler.  If you want to add code to iWeb like this, then you would either use the html snippet method in iWeb itself or you would have to publish the site to a local folder from iWeb and open the relevant html page with a text editor and add the additional code in this way and then publish.  However, if he decided to add the code with a text editor, then you would have to upload the pages directly to the server using an ftp client - if you try to upload the site directly from iWeb, all the extra code will be overwritten.
    As for checking whether the site was created using iWeb, all you need do is view the site in Safari and then click on View and then select View Source Code and it will tell you.
    Even thoough extra code was added to the site and he might well have done this by publishing to a local folder and adding the code with a text editor, he should still have the domain file for the site too.
    Ask again.  I'm sure that for adding quick code, most would not want to use programmes such as Dreamweaver, but a simple text editor will suffice.  As OT already said, if he claims that he does not have the domain.sites file, then try Flux 4 which is a web design programme and has full import facilities.  At least this way, if he just gives you the published version of the site, you have some way of opening it.
    You can download a free trial of Flux 4 and you can also purchase the full version from the Mac App Store if you decide you like it.

    The only way to do that is to Purchase it from the Mac App Store.

    In that case... Install it on your New Mac using the Disc(s) and have all your Serial Numbers handy in case you are asked for them during the Install.
    After the successful install... run Software Update to get any and all Updates... Then Restart your Mac and you should be good to go.
    PS:
    Make sure your MBPr is connected to the Mains for this Long process...

    How to migrate PowerBook G4 Tiger to new MacBook Pro 15" Lion via ethernet cable? Migration Assistant to old to update, apparently.

    Ah, a Powerbook. I miss that.  Anyways, I believe that the Powerbook G4 has an Firewire 400/800 port.  Why don't you do that?  It's fast, and you don't have to set up one of those funky reverse wire ethernet cables.  I wouldn't use Migration Assistant, but that's just me.  Too many issues.  I'd start up your brand new MacBook Pro and during the setup assistant, it'll ask you to transfer data from an older Mac.  Using firewire with a Target Disk Mode, it's pretty fast.
    If you have already opened up your new Mac and are using it, then use Migration assistant, but also with the Firewire (preferably 800).

    In which application?  (There is no system wide punctuation.) 
    And how is the computer supposed to know what is the correct punctuation?  For example "Let's eat, Mom!" versus "Let's eat Mom!"  (Sort of depends upon whether your computer has weathered the zombie apocalypse, I guess.)

  • How quick to export HD footage on new Macbook Pro?

    I have a mid 2007 Macbook Pro (2.4 ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 gig memory, 7200 rpm hard drive) and will be editing HD footage soon. I've been told I should avoid it with my laptop though it seems to work fine on the whole.
    What it does seem slow on is exporting and was wondering if someone could help me judge this....
    I exported a Quicktime Movie of 2 mins 59 secs of XDCam EX footage shot at 35 mbs and it took 10 mins 51 secs. (I put a couple of lower thirds on it and few video tracks.) Just how does this hold up against a new Macbook Pro? Is this good or bad?
    Thanks

    do some searching here.  My experience has been to set up my xdcam sequences  to render as prores.  I thought this sped things up as I think every bit of an xdcam sequence has to be rendered even if you're exporting with current settings, but I seem to remember a recent thread saying this wasn't true.
