How to copy iWeb blog to new iWeb site?

Hi Folks,
I am able to successfully move, via drag and drop, my blog from an old iWeb site to a new one in iWeb.
However, what I want to do is to preserve the old blog as a backup, and them start updating and chagging the blog contet in the new iWeb site. I actually use the blog on my site as a way to list courses.
I've tried to copy files in the iWeb site files, and then reopen iWeb, and I can't see the blog page listed.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Inoshi

To be able to drop and drag from one site to another in iWeb, you firstly need to have iWeb 09. You then need to open the relevant domain.sites file and you need to have the sites underneath each other, so Site1 above and then Site2 below and all you do is just click on the Blog page on Site1 and just drag it over and down to Site2.
You can't do it individually, but you need to drag from one site to another.
I would also advise that you don't use the iWeb blog, as it is not that good and there are better alternatives out there.
You might like to look at some new software too such as EverWeb - http://www.everwebapp.com. It is very like iWeb, but is actively supported and developed whereas for the last 2 years, iWeb has not been and has not been sold by Apple either.
If you wanted a better blogging system, you could transfer your whole website into WordPress.org. You need to install it on a server at your web host, but it might serve you better and you can create a blog it you want to and you can extend it with the use of plugins. Would not take too long to re-create depending on the size of your site and it is relatively easy to use compared to the other CMS's.
Think about changing before iWeb becomes unusable.

I ordered a battery for my laptop because it said to replace battery soon. How long can I let the new battery sit around as I wait for the old one to run out of more charge?

I ordered a battery for my laptop because it said to replace battery soon. How long can I let the new battery sit around as I wait for the old one to run out of more charge? Will the new one become less effective if it sits around too long?

How much capacity is remaining on your current battery?
Check your power status
From the  menu: Hold OPTION and click System Information... èHardware è Power
Copy and Paste in your reply.
The new battery will become less effective if you store it in a hot or humid environment. It should be stored at room temperature (22 C).
Long term storage (6 months):
Apple recommends that you store the battery with a 50% charge. If you store a battery when it’s fully discharged, it could fall into a deep discharge state, which renders it incapable of holding any charge. Conversely, if you store it fully charged for an extended period of time, the battery may experience some loss of battery capacity, meaning it will have a shorter life.

How to transfer iWeb site to another Mac in Lion

Does anyone know how I can move my iWeb site from my Macbook Pro to my iMac. I've transfered the files, but iWeb doesn't see the data. I've copied the data to the iWeb folder in my User Library thinking that would help as I've read others have done in Snow Leopard. This doesn't seem to work in Lion. thanks for the help. I'm using iLife 11

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.
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 to move iWeb site with missing Domain.sites file

I've been asked to host a friend's iWeb site now that MobileMe is no longer an option. The problem is that the MacBook it was created with is long gone and the only original files remaining are the image files for the site. No Domain.sites file. They are also not sure which version of iWeb was used, if that even matters. Initially I was thinking we could just access the existing site using ftp and go from there - upload the site to my hosting account and use Dreamweaver to maintain it, but everything I've read seems to point to 'Not gonna happen that way'.
Is there a way to transfer an existing iWeb site hosted on MobileMe to a new hosting account and be able to work on it with another editor, all the while not having the original Domain.sites(2) file?
Thanks much,
Mark

Quite a few people are moving to other drag and drop style editors like Sandvox and RapidWeaver although they aren't really any better - just more expensive.
I advise people not to use iWeb for new sites and just to keep it going to update existing ones until they are defunct or rebuilt some other way.
I quit using iWeb about a year ago due to the fact that it, and similar apps, can't create responsive designs for mobile devices although I did figure out a stop gap design for iPhones...

How To Resore iweb Site?

The hard drive in my ibook crashed and needed to be replaced. I used backup on .mac and did a full back up and I have the folder with my iweb site backed up. My problem is, how do I get it back into iweb? My site works fine when I go to it on the web, but I can't get it to come up in iweb so that I can edit it. Does anyone know how I can restore it back into iweb?
Thanks, Ken
I-Book G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Your iWeb data is stored, not in your actual html files, but in a file called Domain.sites which is stored in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. You should backup this file whenever you make big changes to your site, because if it gets lost or damaged, you will have to start all over.
Did you backup your Home folder from before? You might luck out and still have your domain.sites file.

You can't use the iWeb Domain file with anything but iWeb.
You can probably edit published iWeb sites with GoLive and modify and save them. Whether that would make your site more acceptable to IE I have no idea. I don't think GoLive is a simple program. You can probably download a trial from Adobe and play with it and ask questions on the Adobe forums.

How are non iWeb sites able to use non "web-safe fonts?

I know there is a list of "x" number of "web-safe fonts" that we should stick to. However, we all see incredible fonts all over the internet on non iWeb sites.
What is it that makes the non-safe fonts work for them. Is there anything we can do to make those fun fonts work for us? I don't have specific examples (sorry). . .just looking for a general answer
Thanks,

The type of file compression to use for web pages is dictated by the number of colors required. Since graphics slow down a web site, your mission is to get the best overall appearance, with the smallest file sizes. The most popular forms of graphic compression are .gif and .jpg
.gif files are limited to 256 colors which work very well for non-photo types of graphics (logo's, etc) and .gif also supports transparency, where you can actually make a graphic appear to be 'cut-out' against a different color background. Gradients do not work well with .gif files.
.jpg files are more suitable for photo's due to the thousands or even millions of shades of colors in skin tones, vegetation, whatever. Jpg's do not support transparency or animation.
Photoshop Elements would be a very good program to pick as an overall web and photo retouching program. The "Save For Web" feature is sweet. You can even continue to use iPhoto to manage your photo library and choose a program like Photoshop as an 'External Editor' to actually work on the pictures.
Adobe Illustrator is probably not where you want to start. There is a learning curve to work with shapes (vectors) instead of actual dots on a page, and it's native format is not compatible with any web browsers. It's really not suitable for photo's at all. It is very powerful when working with commercial graphics that need to be sharp at all sizes, but probably more than you want to deal with.

ACS 5.3 - How to copy DB to a new instance of ACS 5.3

I need to copy an existing ACS 5.3 database to another instance of ACS 5.3 that I've deployed. I can't set up a primary/secondary between these two and do the deed via replication. So it's going to have to be a export/import or a backup/restore. I've been searching for days for a solution to what surely is a trivial task.
Does anyone have any hints on how to do this? Either the CLI or the GUI is fine with me. I feel like an idiot...
-drh

Hello,
You are not idiot at all. This is a problem that I was facing myself (not exact issue but very similar).
Now, I think there is no supported way to move the DB itself in cisco docs. There is a way where you can copy the DB files via FTP from the old machine and restore them in the new machine. That will need a root patch to have a root access to both boxes.
If you are authorized to open TAC cases then please directly do because they know better about the steps.
But I am thinking about one thing, You can build your new ACS servers from scratsh and put them up on the network then remove the old machine. Keep the old machine up without putting it on the network so that you can access it the time you need.
Let the new DB grow on the new server and after a few months you can just remove the old machine because you don't want that DB anymore (if you are keeping the DB on the old machine and it was operational the old data will be deleted anyway as per your retention period you configure on the ACS).
So, I suggest (which is easier for you of possible) to keep the old machine running with access to the DB and install new servers and keep their own DB. After the retention period passes and you don't want the old data anymore just remove the machine.
one other way (did not try it at all) is to take a full view DB backup from old machine and then configure same repository on the new machine. The full backup file may appear on the "Resotre" page where you can choose it and restore (I am not sure if old and new machines need to be with same hostname for the file to appear. you try it anyway it may work).

Hard Drive Crash - How to Copy from iPOD to new computer

My hard drive crashed and is dead, with over 3000 files of songs in my iPOD library. Can I use my iPOD, which still has the library, to copy those files to a new hard drive recently installed? How? If I just synch with the new version, will I lose anything from the iPOD? (Novice here).
Thanks

Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use our iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
The transfer of content from sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod2PC Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
SharePod Windows Only
iPodRip Mac & Windows
YamiPod Mac and Windows

Floola Mac & Windows
iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

How to copy VI and create new subVI paths

Hi all,
I'm still pretty new to LabView, and I'm not sure how to properly do this..
Basically I have a working VI which validates a chassis, but I want to use the code on another chassis. The only differences (that I know of) are the login name and password for the new chassis. I enter these two fields using string constants in a subVI.
If I simply copy the directory of the VI and all the subVIs to a new directory, and open one of the new .VIs, any of my changes are updated to the original VI. How do I break the links to the 'old' files?
I want to have separate directories for chassis "A" and chassis "B" with all the necessary VIs and subVIs in each, even if the files are redundant on the hard drive (in case the VIs or subVIs need minute changes).
Sorry for the vagueness in the subject, by the way.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Are you using projects?
Copy the code to your new location. Create a project and add the folder that contains your code. Use the conflict resolver to fix your VIs.
In some weird situations, I have also been known to delete the old project, resolve the conflicts for the new project, and then restore the old project from the recycling bin.

How to create iWEB site from OLD iWEB site? (Hosted)

Okay, so the domain is corrupt.
I have the site hosted and downloaded it via FTP, wondering two things, well one really, is there a way to rebuild the site since I have all the folders, assets, html pages, and images? If so, how?
I suppose I can rebuild it page by page but want to change the theme and since I have the folders, was wondering if there was a way I can take the downloaded pages and somehow drag them to iWEB or some other MAC WEB program.
Please advise, also, any other cool programs for iWEB or web design similar to Pulp Motion, Banner Zest, and how to make a site use flash without flash?
Am also curious what else there is out there so the site doesn't look so iWeb and have the ability to change the fonts on say, WELCOME< ABOUT, HOME, and also use flash.
Have used dream weaver, not to inspiring albeit the standard.
Thanks

If you decide to rebuild with iWeb Chapter 2.3 of this iWeb FAQ site has tips on using some of the published files in the reconstruction of the site.

HDD Failed, how to copy restore partition to new HDD?

Hallo,
I have a Compaq Mini netbook, with Windows 7 Starter.
The HDD failed and it's not repairable. However, it seems that the recovery partition is OK.
I want to buy a new HDD, install the driver on the netbook and then use the recovery partition/tools in order to install windows 7 on the new PC.
So, the question is simple: How do I copy recovery partition to the new HDD?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hello s91066.
So your hard drive on your notebook has failed? If this is the case what do you mean by the "recovery partition is ok?" I doubt that this notebook has two hard drives so if you're able to see this partition your hard drive may still be working.
You'll need a set of recovery discs to restore the partitions on the new hard drive. If you're able to boot into Windows, which you probably can't with a dead hard drive, you can follow these steps if you can get into Windows.
If you can not boot into Windows you need a set of discs. You can order these directly from HP. The number for the US/Canada is 1-800-474-6836. If you're in another area you'll need to visit HP Support Worldwide to get your area's contact information.
I hope this is helpful; have a great weekend!
Please click the white star under my name to give me Kudos as a way to say "Thanks!"
