IDisk location

I published an iWeb '06-created website to ".Mac" and I wanted to use Rage's SEO tool with it. But SEO can't find my iDisk, or something. SEO asks for username and password, and when I enter them absolutely nothing happens. Where is my iDisk?
I tried performing SEO while I was logged in to .Mac (Mobileme) or not.
It's not shown in Finder.

You probably need to have your iDisk open. Click on the desktop and in the “Go” menu select “iDisk” and then “My iDisk”. Then try using the software.
You may need to use the software each time you update your site. When you edit a page in iWeb and publish it iWeb recreates the page, including the html code which SEO is modifying. I would only use the tool when you site is completely done.
Personally I wouldn't bother. My site has been found by Google etc, just by leaving it there awhile.

    That is from iWeb 1.0. URLs of iWeb 08 are : www.mydomain.com/nameofsite/
    this is what I want
    www.mydomain.com/Home.html
    Read this : [Publish to MobileMe without the Sitename in the URL|http://www.wyodor.net/blog/archives/2010/03/entry_309.html]

    There are no variations. Only clear instructions.
    You publish to MobileMe. With or without a domainname.
    To use your domainname, follow the instructions in your MobileMe account where you setup Personal Domain:

  • I can't remove event handler functions

    Hi guys!
    Please help to remove event handler functions of a
    FLVPlaback. I add some functions for an FLVPlaback instance and
    that's why doesn't work the control panel (play button, pause
    button and so on) Here is a link:
    http://sexaid.fw.hu/vg/vg.html
    to understand simply the problem. thx every ideas!

    I would prefer not to announce the URL to the world on this forum, but I can say the old website still starts with the standard .Mac URL http://web.mac.com/username/iWeb and the new one until I set up to use my own domain was the same I believe.
    Empty the Cache has no effect I can still go to the URL and explore the various pages.
    I do not think that the .Mac websites are hosted from the iDisk location as I have defiantly deleted them from my iDisk and I have rechecked every file in the iDisk for any sign of them also my new iWeb '08 website never appeared in the iDisk. I would presume that the .Mac websites are hosted from a particular location on the Apple servers and I need to some how pull them off separately because publishing another new site with iWeb '08 has just left me with two sites and the old one remains and does not exist in iWeb '08 so I can unpublish it.

  • Applescript to detect network/internet connection?

    I created a simple app using Applecsript to mount my iDisk volume on startup.
    mount volume "https://idisk.me.com/username"
    Works a treat and I use it on my iMac and Alu MacBook. However, there will always be a situation where I'm connected to a network, but not the internet - EG: My universities Wireless network, where I have to goto the student login page before internet access outside of the university system is granted.
    So for the Applescript on my MacBook I want it to detect if it has an internet connection. I was thinking possibly sending a Ping to the idisk location. Anyone have any idea how to do this?
    Thanks
    ~Ben

    Oh yes I am aware of the network icon rather than the iDisk icon. But I did it this way for security reasons.
    If I had my username and password in the script then anyone who got hold of the script could just double click it and have full access to my iDisk. This way, the computer its running on must be connected to the corresponding MobileMe account for that iDisk.
    I'm also not too fussed about the icon, I set a custom one (copy paste into the get info box) which thankfully remains persistant across all machines that connect to match the rest of the pack I downloaded. http://cavemanmac.deviantart.com/art/OLED-Drives-144076760?q=&qo= (if you're curious)
    I also had no idea that Applescript automatically detected errors when doing a shell script. So on 100% packet loss it ended the script then and there.
    Thanks
    Works a treat

  • Weird HTML snippet frame behavior...

    Hi, I am using the HTML snippet to do some CSS stuff. Pasting the code in the HTML snippet box and clicked the Apply button.
    Wow! the snippet frame (normally with 6 small white squares for you to resize the frame to display all the snippet content) suddenly expands to 7,124,555 px in width!!!
    I can't use this snippet without spending 10mins to reduce the width to the proper width.... does anyone come across this problem and found a solution?
    BTW, the HTML code in the snippet references 1 CSS file, and 1 javascript file stored in the proper location on my idisk (the same idisk location iWeb08 would publish my site), and iWeb08 is reading the files OK. If the CSS and JS files are not referenced properly (ie, the files do not exist on idisk), the snippet won't exhibit this weird behavior....

  • How to Resize Web Gallery Slideshow

    I uploaded some photos of my wifes Xmas party
    http://gallery.mac.com/kjritchie#100068&bgcolor=black
    I elected just to allow viewing, no downloading. My understanding is each photo upload is 800x600. How do I prevent Web Gallery slideshow displaying these photos in full screen mode? 800x600 expanded to fill a 20" monitor looks bad.
    Kelvin

    Kelvin:
    You can't. The software that generates the gallery and slideshow is server side and there are no files to edit to change the size. I suppose you could mount the iDisk, locate the gallery folder in the Web/Sites/_gallery folder and replace the 800 x 600 file with a full sized version. However, each photo has it's own folder and several different image files and they are not the same file name as what you have in the iPhoto library. The file used for the slideshow is named web.jpg. So you'll have to rename each file web.jpg and put it in the folder for that photo.
    Happy Holidays
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Excluding items in a given folder from a Smart Folder Search

    Hi: Looking for a tip here. I would like to exclude what pops up in a smart folder based on what folder it is. I do NOT want to exclude that folder from my general spotlight search ability, just in that smart folder.
    Reason asking: I have a folder in docs that I use everyday, and backup (with a 3rd party utility) to my iDisk folder. This way I have backups on my home computer at virtually all times. (iDisk is good for backups, Dropbox for 'sharing') I have a smart folder that displays all the stuff that i've worked on in the last day. I've used a lot of 'not' tricks to exclude all but the file types I use, but I always get a double copy in that folder. The one in my working folder and the one on my iDisk. What would be perfect is to simply say exclude what is found at the iDisk location, but that doesn't seem to be an option in the search criteria. I could exclude the while iDisk from spotlight in general, but I still want to be able to find things when I type them on the standard search.
    Any thoughts?

    thanks, Michel. it had occurred to me to put a scratch tag on the folder, but I was hoping for an easier way. in future I'll do as you suggest though, because it's easier than what I have been doing.

  • I Can't Remove My Old iWeb '06 Website From the Web.

    I can't remove my old iWeb '06 website, I have delete the original website files in my iDisk and even published a new website using iweb '08, but I can still go to the old website URL as well as the new one.
    I have read the apple support pages on removing websites and unpublished website and none of them are of any help because my old website does not exist in iweb '08.
    How do I eradicate my old site so nothing is left of it anymore and I have the space back on my iDisk.

  • The hard drive on my MacBook died and I had it replaced. I can't locate my website files and every time I try to open my idisk it looks for a name and password (even reset my apple id as prompted) I keep being told that it's the wrong name or password?

    Is it possible I have ended up with a large fragmented file that has become "invisible"?
    Is there a way to check for, or locate file fragments and defrag an iDisk?
    Otherwise, is it possible to reinstall that feature on my MacBook Pro?

  • Saving to original location

    I have been helping some friends switch over to Mac. One of the most common questions is "why doesn't it save back to where I opened the file from, like on the pc?"
    Does anyone know how to make files save back to their original location? Thanks. -dr

    First off, behavior with a network may be different than using and saving files on your local drives, since I'm not on a network, I can't check that. However, behavior for local files should be just what everyone has said: it will save to wherever you opened the file.
    Thus, I just launched TextEdit, it created a new file, and I hit Save--the location that appeared was the last folder I had saved something to. Closed the file, opened one in the Documents folder, hit "Save as" and the location was the Documents folder. Closed the file, opened a file from a folder on a different drive, buried 4 steps deep on that drive, hit "Save as" and the location was the folder the original file is in. I then opened a file on my iDisk, in the Sites folder, hit "Save as" and the default location was again just what I expected: the Sites folder on the iDisk. AFAIK this is the default behavior for all applications that use the standard Apple suite for Save and Save as. However, as has been pointed out, applications don't HAVE to do this, they can write their system for default behavior, and some do. There are applications that have in their preference the ability to set a default folder of the user's choice to automatically offer as a first choice.
    Also, you can often use the drop down menu next to the name of the suggested folder in the Save or Save As sheet to select a different spot in hierarchy, or a different folder from the "Recent Places" which appears after the hierarchy listing. Furthermore, you can drag 'n drop any folder you have open in the Finder into the navigation pane to start from there in the Save sheet.
    Finally, if you want to open the folder your file came from in Finder, just hold the Command key and click on the title in the title bar of the open file. You'll get the path list for the file, click on any item in the path to open that in Finder.

  • How can I have 2 iMacs in different locations communicate?

    I have 2 iMacs located 100  miles from each other. Both are connected to internet by highspeed cable. Is there any way I can get something from the hard drive of the other, communicate between the two? Thanks for any suggestions.

    Hey Leslie,
    It sounds like you are a little amateur at computers, so I would recommend using LogMeIn Ignition, which is a free service that let's your access all your computers from your mobile 3G device, or even your other iMac. If you only want to move certain files over to the other computer with ease, you can currently use iDisk, and later use iCloud when Apple releases that later this fall. Advanced users can use web servers to access disks via FTP or STP.
