I can not publish my iweb site to moblie me

I had originally written and published a site with no problems.
However since then I tried to publish my changes and the iweb would show up as "not responding"
I tried other avenues to change my site which at first worked then failed so I deleted the site amd tried to start over thinking that may solve the issue.
It still will not publish merely stops reponding
Just to clarify - I found that I was able to make changes by publishing the iweb to a folder and then uploading the altered files to mobile me. This worked fine to start with but then I added some hyperlinks then uploaded the replacement html pages again - this caused the whole layout to change. This is the reason why I basically deleted the site.
I can still not publish my site now - same problem when I click the publish or publish all it freezes!

Hello Frank,
The good thing of all your efforts is that you could determine the problem to iWeb.

Well, there are at least 2 more well known issues that you didn't verify yet, at least I didn't see it in your post.
i get a portion of the files published only.
This is a clue to these 2 issues: a wrong filename or a problematic widget.
Go back in history to the point where you had your last successful 'Publish'
Have a good look at the filenames of the pages you created since then.
Is a very big chance there is a "wrong" character in the name or 2 spaces..
With a little bit of luck, when you do a Publish, you can see iWeb hanging on the name
of the problematic page (not always).
If it isn't the filename, try selectively remove widgets and do a Publish.
The moment Publish works, you've found the villain.
As this tip involves deleting things, make a backup of your domain file first.
Let me know if these tips don't apply to your situation.
I still have one radical solution at hand.
Kind regards,
Leo

  • Can't publish my iWeb site - has index file something to do with it?

    Hi, I've been trying to publish my iWeb site (not on a .Mac account but through ftp upload) but it hasn't worked out so far... I phoned my webspace provider's support service and the wguy I spoke to was convinced that it's due to the index file not being an .html file (he thought that the problem lies with the index.xml.gz file). Searching the discussions on this site, I figure that this isn't what's causing the problem after all...
    To continue working on the site while using another computer, I copied the 'Domain' over. Now that I've brought it back to the original computer, it seems to be causing these problems. Any idas what I could do or where the problem lies? I'd be really grateful for any hints as it's driving me 'round the bend! Cheers, A

    Did you name any of your site's pages "index"?  That can cause problems.
    Are you able to publish your site to afolder on your hard drive and open it locally with your browser?  If you haven't tried  do so and see if you can.  If you can and the site works as you designed it then the issue is in the uploading of the files.
    In that case you might try using  Cyberduck to upload your site folder and  index.html file to your server.

  • Can not publish to iWeb 3.0.2, maybe a sync problem, how to solve it?

    My earlier MacbookPro died and I got a new one. Since then the iWeb does not work at all. I have a valid Mobileme subscription till spring next year, but iWeb does not show the existing sites (which are in the other computer) and does not start publishing and does not want to sync the existing sites into the new one. I can publish to Homepage, though.
    The only action iWeb does is to take me to the Sync window, it confirms that I have a valid subscription, but thereafter nothing happens.
    This must be a problem with sync settings, I gather, but where do I find it, and the key to solve it?
    I do NOT want to sync all information from this computer to mobileme or viceversa, otherwise I loose info stored from the previous computers to my iDisk and mobileme spiderweb.

    You need iWeb's Domain file from the other computer (your old MacBook Pro) — here's a diagram of where it usually resides:
    ...But since it "died" and presumably inaccessible, see this Apple doc on How to back up MobileMe data. It says:
    “Any websites you have published with iWeb should still be available within iWeb. iWeb stores everything in a Domain file, normally located in the ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder (although it can be moved). If you no longer have this file, you can view your currently published pages and manually recreate them within iWeb, but *there is no way to import published pages back into iWeb*. You can manually back up the Domain file, or use Backup to back it up.”
    By the way, here's the normal procedure when your old computer has not died:

  • Living in Brasil can I publish my iWeb site on a foreign hosting site?

    Hello folks,
    I have a web site developed with iWeb and presently published in a hosting site in Brasil, but I am unhappy with such hosting site for several reasons,  the main one is that it doesn't "speak" iWeb  and Apple language, making almost impossible to update my site, but also, their cost and Customer Services aren't good.
    Mobileme ends today and iCloud won't host iWeb sites, so I wonder if other, iWeb friendly sites, not located in Brasil, or even Brazilian ones,  would host my site?
    Thanks in advance   Paulo

    You can host your website with a host from any country. The only thing you may run into may be the added cost of telephone support. Most of the larger webhosts also provide pretty good instant chat or email support. I have not actually had to call my current webhost for any of the minor issues I have ran into. They have been able to solve my issues within quick order via intant chat or email. 
    I have been using IX Webhosting for several years now with little to no problems "usually the problem was something I did" and they have been quick to solve any issue I have come across.

  • Still can not publish by iWeb

    always show publish error "an error occurred while publishing file /Web/Sites/xxxx"
    and I can not find any problem. Please help.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. First try the basic fixes: 1 - repair disk permisisons; 2 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple. iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
    Next try to publish to a folder on the desktop? If still not successful get the name of the file that's giving you problems and try the following:
    1 - *first make a backup copy of your domain.sites2 file*.
    2 - open the working domain.sites2 file and see if you can located the problem file.
    3 - move that file to the desktop.
    4 - open iWeb and check each page to see if you can tell what was removed. If ithe item was one that you added, i.e. a photo or graphic, you may have to add it again.
    5 - publish again to a folder. If you get it published to a folder, open the site in your browser and check the pages carefully to make sure all elements are present.

  • Can not publish to iweb after upgrading to icloud

    I have upgrdaded my mobileme account to icloud but did not realise that iCloud does not support hosting iweb and that I will have to find a new host, But the support page tells me I can still publish any changes through mobileme until June 2012 even though I have upgraded.  But I can't see how. When I press 'publish site'  I get a message saying that I have upgraded to icloud. Can anyone help me!

    Try this:
    go to the System/MobileMe preference pane and log out of MMe.
    login with a bogus username and password like "Ying" and "Yang". This clears the caches.
    login with your correct username and password.
    launch iWeb and try again.

  • Where can I publish my iWeb site?

    We are creating an iWeb site for our wedding, and we know that MobileMe is no longer accepting new accounts. Where can we publish our site? I've never done this before, so any help is appreciated! Thanks!

    If you have internet access it usually comes with some webspace. Check with your ISP.
    Or search for : webhosting <name of your community/town/province/country>
    Or look in the Yellow Pages. You know, that stack of paper with a yellow wrapper. Old fashioned, but still worth the search.
    The world is larger than MobileMe. For some that's terrifying.

  • Can I publish my iWeb site on iCloud since Mobile Mme no longer exists?

    it is not possible at all. iCloud has no Gallery, no Website and lacks also lots of other features of MobileMe.
    Refer to what has already posted here to find alternatives. iWeb however will continue to work in Lion, so it is not a program issue. You just need to find some ftp hoster that you can use with iWeb.

  • How can I publish my iweb site using Jumpline as a host?  Anyone done it?

    My dad has a hosting account with Jumpline and can have an infinite amount of websites with unlimited storage (type of account is no long available fyi), so we have it set up on his end (thanks to help from a true IT guy, but he is a PC IT guy) but now I need to know what to do to publish the site from the iweb end...

    Nevermind!!  I didn't realize I could use the FTP option for this server - it's publishing right now! 

  • Search engines can not find my iWeb site!

    Could anyone please help me, I am rather new on this subject. A few weeks ago I published my own weblog at web.mac.com. But I noticed that Google, nor any other search engine, can find my page. I visited Google's Webmaster Tools page
    https://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/sitestatus?hl=en
    and entered my the URL of my weblog
    http://web.mac.com/tina.k.noume/iWeb/loketlindelaan/Home/Home.html
    This is what Google told me:
    "You have entered a URL to a file. Please enter the site URL."
    I do not understand! What can I do?
    Thanking you for you help!

    because it is a blog?

  • I can not publish with iWeb.

    I seem to be in a circle of prompts. "sign in to mobile." I do and "your account has been upgraded to iCloud." How do I now publish my website?

    Are you really on 10.5.2 as your signature suggests? - because this does not work with iCloud in any event.
    Assuming you are actually on 10.7.2 and have migrated to iCloud, you need to go to System Preferences>MobileMe and sign in - the migration process tends to sign people out. Then iWeb should work OK, publishing to MobileMe just as before.
    iCloud does not provide any website hosting or general files storage in the manner of iDisk; as MobileMe will be terminated next June your website will disappear then unless you find another host for it. You can publish to another host using iWeb provided it is up to date. More details here:

    How can I save my iWeb site as an interactive doco for a presentation? It is not published to the net.

    mashett wrote:

    That's exactly what you would get. Create a folder with a suitable name: publish to it. Zip it; email it. Tell them to start with the 'index.html' file inside the folder. The rest will follow - they will see it exactly as they would see an online site, links and all.
    Note that there is usually a 20MB limit on email attachments so if your site is image-heavy you might have a problem. An alternative is to post it to your webspace - you could post the zipped file and give them a link to it - that will download it (and it's a preferable way of handing a large file anyway, as they can download it at their convenience rather than being forced to in order to get their other mail).

  • How can I publist my iWeb site to a Windows Server? (FTP is not an option, neither is a Linux server))

    So I need to publish my iWeb site to a Windows server on a secure I can't access directly.  I believe I need to export my iWeb site to a local folder on my Mac, then transfer those files to the computer that has access to the server.
    I tried this earlier today with the tech in charge of the system and we had trouble getting the files uploaded.
    I don't get any error messages, the new site simply doesn't show up.
    Can anyone offer any help here?  I know that iWeb users have had problems uploading to Windows servers, but If you know of specific work-arounds to the problems encountered, please let me know.
    Thank you in advance.  Any and all help is appreciated!

    What ftp programme are you using to upload the site?
    Also, where are the files being placed on the server - if they are not in the root folder on the server then they might not show up - (root folder could be anything from "public_html", "www", or "htdocs".  This differs on all servers).
    Also, when you published the site from iWeb to a local folder did you see all the files that iWeb produces - did you see firstly the Site folder, the separate index file?  If you did, did you transfer this folder and file to the computer in question? 
    When you uploaded the site did you upload the whole site folder?  If so, then you also need to upload the separate index file so that it points into the site folder - this needs to sit outside the site folder itself so that it points to the index file in the site folder.
    If you don't want to upload like this, then what you can do is simply upload the contents of the site folder instead of the whole folder itself and place all the contents of the site folder - that being all the html file and the resultant css folders for each page to the server instead.
