How to monitor iWeb publish / upload status?

I'm publishing a website with a few large video files. When I hit publish, it prepares the pages and then seems to start uploading -- the pie chart image appears next to the site name. It's taking forever, however, with no discernable movement in the pie. I'd like to get some more details status from the app... how many MB uploaded, how many to go, estimated time of completion, etc...
Is there any way to find this out? Where does one make feature requests? Given what I've seen in the forum, this seems like an obvious and easy change to make to put many minds at ease.

Adding a movie by dragging it onto the page requires Quicktime to be installed on the computer trying to view your site.  A lot of PCs do not have Quicktime installed.
There are other methods of adding a movie which are compatible with nearly all platforms. Go to the following pages at Roddy's iWeb for Musicians site to learn about players that will let all visitors view the movie: HTML5-Video.html, Easy Movie Player, Fallback Player. He has other pages dedicated to adding movies to a web page.
Most involve uploading the movie file to the server manually and then linking to it with the appropriate code in an HTML snippet.

  • How can I know the uploading status of a Photobook?

    I have some problems uploading an order. I' d like to know the uploading status and the remaining time. How can i do that?
    Thanks

    Cesare,
    if you are concerned about your network connection, perhaps you may want to run the Network Utility (in Applications -> Utilities) for a while.
    The first tab (Info) will give you an overview on the transfer statistics (send errors, collision etc.) and the second tab (Netstat) will give you a comprehensive network statistic, when you press the "Netstat" button.

  • How to view iMovie 10 upload status to facebook?

    I can view status by clicking the little pie icon in the upper right corner, but the message it shows is:
    "Finishing: Publishing to Fa...t of 106.5 MB completed. 8m    X"
    There is no way to expand the elipses.  I tried right clicking, I tried making the main window bigger, it never scrolls automatically or anything.
    Eric

    I have this problem, too. As a workaround, you can open Activity Monitor and then open the Network tab. The "Sent Bytes" column will show how much iMovie has uploaded so far.

    iWeb has two other ways to publish your site...

    ... and the second method allows you a choice of how you upload the files...

    If you have folders of assets outside of the main website folder on MobileMe, download them from the Apple server. From the Finder Go menu, follow the path iDisk/My iDisk/ to get there. Your website files are in the Web/Sites folder. Drag any files/folders onto the desktop.
    Use an FTP application to upload these assets to the root folder on your new server...

    If you have been using a web.me.com domain name, you need to register a new one. Most hosting services give you at least one free and registering with your hosting company will make forwarding and managing it a lot easier.
    Make sure you add the new name to Google and create, upload and enter a new sitemap.xml...

    HOW TO PUBLISH YOUR WEBSITE ..FROM IWEB ..WHEN I USE TO USE MOBILE ME .. BUT NOW THERE IS NO MOBILE ME BECAUSE OF ICLOUD, AND ICLOUD DOESN'T SUPPORT IWEB PUBLISHING?

    When MobileMe goes down the drain, you will need to move your website to standard hosting. Depending on your site size, I recommend A Small Orange, as the Tiny hosting plan they have is big enough for most iWeb sites and much cheaper then shelling out $6 a month for most of the other big names, and if you check out their forum, several of the members have coupon codes in thier signatures. Also, their customer service is great and very fast in getting back to you.
    To upload, I publish the iWeb site to a folder, then using Cyberduck upload it to the host. Cyberduck beats iWeb's FTP uploader because Cyberduck only replaces updated pages, instead of uploading the entire site.
    I hope this helps!

  • Publishing to .mac pay pal buttons disappear/How to integrate iweb enhancer

    When I publish my website to a folder, the index html file gives a perfect working model of my website. When I publish to .mac, the pay pal buttons disappear and leave the same raw input that appears on the iweb page.
    Could it relate to iweb enhancer?I understand how to use iweb enhancer when publishing to a folder. How is it used when publishing to .mac?
    CAN ANYONE PLEASE HELP! I must get the site correctly published ASAP to sell concert tickets and time is running out!!

    It will work just fine publishing it to your own domain / host. Just insert the code as a Web Snippet and upload it as you normally would.
    I don't know about changing the PayPal link but you could try to create your own custom made image and just take the PayPal url from the code they gave you and connect it as a hyperlink in iWeb -- I would think it would work fine.

  • How to create in iweb but upload to something other than .mac account

    I bought my own domain name and have a hosting server all setup through a friend.
    My question is can I create my page in iweb and upload it to my own hosting server which is not .mac?
    If not, how can I pull all files and folders out to copy up using Classic FTP?
    If I cant use iweb at all, what can I use to build my page on my macbook?
    Thank You
    Patrick

    Hi Patrick,
    all you have to do is go to File=>Publish to a folder when in iWeb and then upload the resulting files (index.html & folder named with name of your site in iWeb) to your server using an FTP application.

  • How do I get iweb to upload to different family pack accounts?

    Hi. sorry if this has been covered before, but I can't find this particular problem anywhere. Also sorry this is going to take a while to explain. We feel we wasted an extra 50 bucks on our family pack for mac.com last year to have accounts we never could find out how to upload from our separate iWeb domain files. We needed 4 different "sub accounts" but we use one mac laptop using one desktop. Calling apple customer service was of no help. We have figured out the way to get iWeb to open different domain2 files was to copy and into each person's file (one for the gardener for their garden stuff, one for the budding chef and his cooking stuff, etc). But no matter what domain file is opened and worked on iWeb always uploads it to our main (original) user name thus erasing the site previously uploaded to it. We can't seem to find out how to change the settings in iWeb so when it uploads particular iWeb projects to Mac.com (or now me.com?) it goes to the sub accounts and not overwriting the main account. Our main account is for the entire household's news/photos etc and we don't link to the others from there. We thought by setting up the family pack we could easily get iweb to send up to the other sub accounts. Not so. We ended up last year just doing all our websites on the same iWeb domain file using "new website" function and adding a complete new website to the bottom of the list on our iWeb pages. All of them would be combined into one which uploaded everything to the main account. Not what we wanted but that was the only way that nothing would get erased by anyone else's updates but also not very private as those near the bottom of the list would have a mac.com address as long as my arm. Sorry so long winded here. But if we can't have two iweb domain files on a desk top upload to two separate mac.com accounts or sub accounts, then why pay the extra for them? Is a family pack only good for families with a computer in every room? Our family pack accounts expires in 10 days so would like to know if we need to waste another 50 bucks. And no, setting up separate desktops for for the sake of individual iWeb projects is not an option as all the files are kept together. We tried that once and got so much duplication in photos and stuff, our hard drive was full in no time.

    so you have 45 different users on your one computer? ie: 45 different desktop users or am I still not understanding. To me a "user" you are referring to is what I would go up to the upper right of my toolbar and use the drop down menu and select another name (or in this case another alias of myself) but those additional accounts (users) would all have to be tied into my files on the main account to access them from all users, correct? All my files are on my one main user (myself) and not all of them are in iPhoto or iTunes, for instance any swf files. If I have other iWeb domain files (which I know how to create, duplicate and know about the last one used in iweb etc) then I have to create a separate user name (myself again) in my computer for as many iweb/me.com accounts or sub accounts that I have? But my problem with that is if I copy those domain files and move them into another account/user (which I tried) the link (the stuff at the bottom of the iWeb work window) still says my original Mac.com (me.com) address and will not let me change even when the new "user" has not even logged into Mac.com ever or the second computer is linked to a completely different mac.com account. I would have to start all over from scratch. I am sorry that I am not getting this. I know you are trying hard to explain it to me but it is just a bit too complicated to do a simple task of: I want to create a new iWeb/domain2 file on my own desktop with my own user name and have it go to "here" and not "here" within the me.com environment. I have actually copied and moved over 20 domain and domain2 files between our two macs to work on them, but each time the same connection indicated at the bottom is always the same and they will all upload to the master account at Mac I am referring to thus deleting anything we uploaded before no matter which computer they are located on. Once that domain file is created it is locked into that Mobileme account no matter what. So it has been easier to simply save to folders and purchase hosting from someone else than try to figure out what I am doing wrong with mac and me. (me, not myself)

  • IWeb publishes updates but does not upload in the FTP

    HELP!    
    I have a 'tried-tested-true' website that's been on the internet for 10 years. It's been updated over the years but needed much more as of today.
    The updates perfectly publish within iWeb [3.0.4]. The FTP uploads the site, but when I check it on the internet [Safari 6.2.3], the former version appears.
    I proceeded to troubleshoot by renaming the website and re-mounting the pages. Also, renaming the pages, but after several attempts of uploading each newer version, all efforts were to no avail. It has taken me a full day without results. That is, the original website remains on the internet, which is very outdated.
    I have run out of troubleshooting ideas. All of my other websites have not had this problem. There was an issue this week with the ISP Domain Host services not connecting my site. I contacted them, but have had no response. However, I thought I would try connecting again today in case they sorted out their connectivity issues. I am able to connect to their server. I have good reason to believe the FTP is uploading the updated directory files, but for some reason when it comes to viewing the site on the internet, au contraire.
    Not sure if this is an iWeb problem or my ISP domain hosting services having issues with connectivity. Whatever, it is very perplexing to me as to what to do next after the extensive amount of time I have taken troubleshooting.
    I repeat myself when I say, 'HELP!'

    Okay, I understand what you are referencing. I am publishing my websites to the path of 'Users'-Documents-Website Documents.
    Below is a screen shot of the folder my Websites are located. Is this what you are referencing? It is Site 2 that is having issues with uploading to the domain host server of my ISP. All the other sites have been uploaded successively.
    I use FileZilla as my FTP server and it has been excellent. I have tried CyberDuck, et al. FZ works perfectly well indicating all that one needs to know while uploading. If my other websites were causing the same issues, then it would mean FTP issues.
    However, I believe I am on the same track you are referencing with regards to my published website is in the appropriate location on my HD. I stand to be corrected.
    I believe by my contacting the Forum and reading your information that I am following protocol as I have always done with my 4 websites that upload properly. As I continue the discussion, it is becoming evident the issue is with the Domain Host server, which is not a problem to post on this Forum.
    However, I posted my issue just in case it was an iWeb issue or my not following protocol correctly to publish a website. From what I am gleaning with your information, I am following protocol. Repeating myself when I say it appears to be the aforementioned server. I have contacted them again about their Domain Host server but no response as yet.
    If what I am presenting to you is the correct protocol I have in place at my end, I thank you for taking the time to assist me. By doing so, I believe I will be able to determine it is not an iWeb publishing issue [mostly because all my websites are not experiencing this problem], nor is it the FTP server,FileZilla, but the Domain Host Server.
    As mentioned above, here is the folder where my websites are located.
    I so appreciate your assistance.
