Photo file issues with iWeb and Aperture....also too much duplicating!!

A little background, before I get into my iWeb issue.....
Years ago I tried iPhoto, but I didn't like how it duplicated all my photo files and I wasn't very fond of the file structure it created. Years later (last month) I got Aperture. Aperture (still has a long way to go) also duplicates all your files and places them in their own file structure. If I can get along with Aperture (and if it will get along with my other programs), I won't mind putting all my files into the file structure it creates. But for now, I still have my original files in the original file structure I have had for many years as a back up.
On to my issue with iWeb and Aperture....
To add photos to iWeb, you can either go into the iWeb media center or you can drag and drop photos from other locations.
1st: iWeb media center
To get my photos into the media center, I would have to load them into iPhoto (iP 6 does allow you to keep your original file structure, but it still creates .jpg files, which fills up your hard-drive. More duplicates I don't need or want). So that is out for me. iP6 will let you view and use your Raw files.
Another way is to drag and drop your file structure directly into the media center window. I don't think this duplicates any files (at least I haven't been able to find any), but it takes an awfully long time to thumbnail all your photos (several hours and still waiting for 22K + files). Also, it won't show any Raw files. Again, out for me.
Aperture won't let you drag and drop its library into the media center at all. So if I was to move all my files into the Aperture Library, I wouldn't be able to access them for iWeb at all.....Out for me.
2nd: Drag and Drop
I was able to drag and drop Raw files directly into iWeb from C1 Pro, Adobe Bridge and Adobe Lightroom.
As I said before, I am trying to move over to Aperture. However, Aperture won't let me drag and drop photos. What is the deal here??? These are both Apple programs and they won't play nice with each other. Very annoying.
Anyway, I put a link below to my iWeb test webpage I made. All the photos were Raw files that I did a drag and drop from C1 Pro, Adobe Bridge and Lightroom. There were no problems with the publishing.

So, does anyone know if they can get photos from Aperture to work?? Thanks for any responses.

Jedi,
Perhaps you are right.
I am not a web developer and I will never be. I don't feel like spending countless hours learning how to use Dreamweaver or some other Pro web app. iWeb looked like a way to start making websites of my photos for my friends and family (much easier and better than Home Page on .Mac). All I was asking was for a way to drag and drop my photos (especially Raw files) with Aperture. Which I can do with Lightroom, Adobe Bridge and C1 Pro, and without using iPhoto.
I am not a Pro photographer either, but I purchased Aperture based on what was advertised on the Apple website. From that ad, Aperture fit my photo needs almost to a tee. I am looking to adjust Raw files, Crop, Archive and keep my use of Hard Disk space down to a minimum. I can use Photoshop for the other 5% of things I do. However, Aperture has some issues (if you own it, then you already know. If you don't, you can read the Aperture Forum) This is one of the reasons I never went to iPhoto for archiving. I didn't like the way it duplicated all my files, taking up more disk space and its file structure. So even though Aperture won't play nice with other programs, I was surprised that it wouldn't play nice with any Apple programs.
After reading your post and based on what you are saying, everyone either needs to have/learn/use Pro apps only or have/learn/use iApps only. Don't Cross the Streams!!
I guess that means Apple will need to fix DVD Studio Pro. It uses photos that are in your iPhoto library and music from iTunes (iApps in a Pro app??....for shame...."it was never intended"). Also, DVD SP won't read the Aperture library. Does that mean there are 3 platforms? Pro, iApp and Mediocre??
Now I have 2 questions:
1. Can someone please tell me which apps are Pro and iApp, or if there is Mediocre? I don't want to mix them up and "Cross the Streams".
2. Again....is there anyway to use Aperture with iWeb?
TIA,
Narvon

When I launch iWeb, it never displays on my desktop only in the bar below. It's like it is minimized and I can't see it.

I launch the software and it's no where to be found except in the bar below. This was after I had upgraded some of my other MAC software. What happened? Anyone know a fix?

Try the following:
1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iiWeb.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder.

3 - launch iWeb and try again.
If that doesn't work launch iPhoto, select a couple of photos and use the Share ➙ iDVD menu option. It might take a couple of tries.

Issues Migrating iWeb Site

I'm having trouble moving my iWeb site from my old MacBook to my new MacBook Pro.
On my old Macbook, I have iWeb 08 (version 2). On my new MacBook Pro, I have iWeb 09 (version 3). I've already moved (from my old computer) my iWeb project (Library > Application Support > iWeb) to the same folder on my new computer. When I launch iWeb on my new computer, the site loads fine, but it looks like I need to re-publish it. However, it's taking forever and it hasn't finished yet. Is there another step I need to do? Is it not as simple as simply moving the iWeb folder contents?
Thanks!
B

That's way too long. Stop the process and try the following:
1 - go to the System/MobileMe preference pane and log out of MMe.
2 - login with a bogus username and password like "test" and "test". This clears the caches.
3 - login with your correct username and password.
4 - launch iWeb and try again.
Next, try:
1 - close iWeb.
2 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
3 - go to your User/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete the contents.
4 - reboot.
5 - launch iWeb and see if there's any improvement.
Lastly try Koeklin's fix from his post in this topic: Topic : can't open a domain.sites.2

I made several websites in iweb. since upgrading to 10.8.. NONE of them work. they all show up with 'start a new website' upon launching iweb! HELP!!! x

When I launch iWeb, nothing shows up on my screen

When I launch iWeb, it seems to open but then nothing shows up on my screen.

Try the following:
delete the iWeb preference files, com.apple.iWeb.plist and com.apple.iWeb.plist.lockfile, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
Click to view full size
launch iWeb and try again.
If that doesn't help close iWeb, open iPhoto, select a couple of photos and use the Share ➙ iWeb ➙ Photos Page menu option. It could take a couple of tries if its going to work at all.

Strange issue with iWeb site, please help

Hi everyone,
Until recently, I've been keeping an iWeb blog of my time in India. Nothing too complicated, just stories and photo albums. However, recently something strange has happened, and the website is no longer displaying correctly. It looks fine in iWeb, and when I publish it in a folder and open it locally, everything is fine. However, after uploading it to my hosting provider, it looks like this:
http://www.egbertopreis.nl/India/
(screenshot of what it looks like here: http://egbertopreis.nl/website_screenshot.PNG )
This is a screenshot from iWeb of what it should look like: http://www.egbertopreis.nl/iWeb_screenshot.png
I'm using the 'darkroom' theme, but as you can see, something is clearly wrong. It is not displaying the menu correctly, the layout looks strange and it isn't loading any of the articles. The other pages are accessible if you navigate there directly, but there you have the same problem.
It looks like, for some reason, the CSS and javascript elements cannot be loaded, although I have no idea why this might be the case. They are all just static files, and it worked fine until about a week ago.
Although I'm an IT professional, I have literally no idea what could cause a problem like this. I went with iWeb because I wanted to use an 'easy' solution and not over-engineer something for once
Usually what I'd do in a situation like this, is just purge the whole site and re-upload it. However, since I'm traveling around, I don't have fast internet access anywhere and the site is now so large that it would take forever to completely re-upload. This is also the reason why I can't troubleshoot it properly myself...
Any help (or even words of encouragement :-)) whatsoever would be extremely welcome. Thanks in advance!

Edit: Forgot to mention what I already tried myself;
- deleted the HTML and XML files and let iWeb do 'publish changes'. Everything was re-uploadeded, but issue remained.
- Deleted the 'Scripts' folder on the remote host, and manually re-uploaded from locally published folder. No effect.
- Tried randomly changing layout items in the hope that any potentially corrupted files might be overwritten after publishing. No effect.

Hi Roddy, thanks for your reply. It wasn't just me though; a lot of other people from back also reported the same issue. I was also getting the same thing from behind a wired connection. You can still see and experience the issue yourself if you look here.
I've since 'resolved' the issue by getting a .Mac trial account. A friend helped me move the whole blog over there, where the site works as it is supposed to:
http://web.me.com/eggmeister/India/
Therefore the issue has to be with the hosting. Right now I'm suspecting it might be some obscure configuration issue with the hosting company's server. Maybe something like too low a setting for Apache's 'MAX REQUESTS'. This might cause issues with all the javascript going on in the iWeb pages, loading elements back and forth. I'm in contact with the hosting provider, and will let you know what I find. Might be useful for future reference.

IE issue with iWeb site

1) Images don't load
2) in IE 8 : HTML email snippet does not show up
How can this be resolved?

IE Scolling/Lag issues with IWeb Published Site

Has anyone had any issues with scrolling/lag with Internet Explorer on an iWeb published site? I have a site that runs great on Firefox and safari but terrible on Internet Explorer. I'm thinking it may be the template/design i used?
Anyone every seen this? Any suggestions?
Thanks,
JC

I've only ever used the Modern Frame, so I can't say if there would be a performance issue using a different template. I have about three pictures on each page.
I noticed on your site that you're using the "reflection" effect on some of your pictures. Just for the purpose of testing, perhaps you could try turning off that effect and then re-uploading your site to see if that is causing some of the problem? I believe the reflection is rendered using javascript code, which may be causing the poor performance in IE. If that does turn out to be the problem, you can decide whether it's worth it to keep the effect or not.
By the way, I don't get that same error message in IE when I open your Videos page. Maybe it's caused by a security setting in your IE being set at a more restrictive level?

Can't launch iWeb-very strange

Trying to launch iWeb08 gives this message:
"You can't open the Application "iWeb" because it is not supported on this architecture."
I noticed this around the time I tried to install the 10.5.2 update so it may be related but not sure. Had 10.5.2 problems but those were resolved by running disl warrior and reinstalling the software, but it looks like I am still having iWeb problems.
Other iLife 08 apps OK.
Anyone?

No worries. I deleted iWeb and reinstalled. After downloading the update it works.

Issues launching iTunes windows 7 64 bit

Hi people who are hopefully a lot smarter than I am,
I can't launch iTunes on my computer. I've searched the discussion boards and tried all the fixes I've seen suggested and nothing is working. When I double-click on it it does nothing; if I hold down ctrl-shift to start it in safe mode it does nothing; I've repaired, uninstalled and reinstalled QuickTime several times; I've repaired iTunes a million times as well. It isn't showing up in my task manager at all either. The action center just keeps telling me to download the most recent version to fix the launch issue and like I said that's done nothing. I even connected my iPad via USB and that didn't get it to launch and tried deleting SC Info .sidb and .sidd files. Also, it's not responding to my storm of curse words. I've tried so many things I can't remember them all.
I'm not sure if this is related, but a couple days ago the action center already showed iTunes had failed to launch several dozen times and then my computer would freeze when it was trying to load Windows and the diagnostics were indicating HD failure. I booted to a CD of SeaTools for DOS that I had from when my HD failed over a year ago and it failed the short test and found a bunch of errors in the long test but it was able to repair them. I can get back into Windows now but my super good friend iTunes is still holding out.
What I would really like to do is fix it with a hammer, but something tells me then nothing else on my computer will work either so I'm open to any other suggestions. Has anyone else run into this issue and found a fix?

Someone else? asked the same early this AM.
I'd guess your registry was at fault to begin with, and that you need to reset all the program and file types back to defaults is all.
But then look under the hood for why as it is very uncommon and maybe Windows is at fault.
Consider total uninstall AND use Revo and maybe CCleaner 3.12 as well as clean out %TEMP% folder and run chkdsk

Start up application automactically launches IWeb?

All of the sudden when I turn on my macbook pro lap top, running tiger os x 10.4.9, I find that a program named IWeb has launched. No big deal but its annoying that I have to close it first before I continue. I have tried to research how to turn this off but my computer skills are on the fringes of a beginner. Could someone tell me what this is called so I could look it up or maybe just tell me where you go to change this? Thanks so much in advance.

Hi
Have you looked in System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items?
If iWeb is there, highlight it then click the - button to remove.

Issue launching Cisco WebEx from Safari after 10.6 install

Since the 10.6 install I found that launching Cisco WebEx from Safari failed - it just hung with the 'Please Wait' message in the browser.
WebEx tech support do not have an official fix for this at this time, but we did go through setting-up Safari to only open as 32-bit, and this appears to be a valid work-around for anyone with this issue.
Go to APPLICATIONS - control click SAFARI - select GET INFO
Check the 'open in 32-bit mode' option - restart Safari
WebEx should now launch ok from Safari.
Hope that helps!
Chris.

William - is 32-bit mode going to cause issues for any other application within Safari?
Just trying to decide if I should only switch to 32-bit when using WebEx, and stick with 64-bit the rest of the time?
Thx.

Can't launch iWeb?

Hi its been in my Dock unused for a year but now I want to try it out and I can't launch iWork - any ideas? All other iLife 06 apps are fine FWIW.

Maybe you have accidentally deleted the application or moved it somewhere.
Look in your applications folder to see if it is there and, if not, try a spotlight search.
If you have lost it completely you can reload it from your OSX disc. To save you the trouble of reloading everything you can use a utility called Pacifist.

Once you have got iWeb don't forget to run the update!
