IWeb 08 files completely missing

After some general desk top spring cleaning, my iWeb files all disappeared.
I open up iWeb and see only the first page furnished by Apple when the program was new. Site is still on iDisk and info is still on the web but I need to bring it back down to where iWeb is.
I have transmit ftp program but can't seem to connect to my web site on the mac server because I don't know what to put into www.mysite.com field.
Any ideas on how I can open existing web pages in my iWeb program which now has no files in it?

Thanks, all. I am going to mark this problem as solved, though for me it's not.
Here is what happened: on a back up disk, I found the domain.site from two months ago and dragged that into the current user/library/application support/iWeb folder and replaced the blank one that currently appeared this afternoon.
Now I can work in iWeb in a two month old version.
LEARNING EXPERIENCE: don't think that iDisk backs up your files. It did mine, but it didn't back up the domain file...so I'll be faithly backing up that little baby from time to time.

  • Iweb files are missing - can Time Capsule restore them?

    All of my iWeb files are missing.  How can one find these files in Time Capsule and restore them?
    Thanks, José

    iWeb stores the website data in a Domain.sites2 file whose default location is shown here..
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/iWeb-Tips.html
    Locate the file in Time Capsule and restore it to your Mac.

  • Iweb Files are Missing since Upgrade Yeasterday

    Yesterday, my computer did some automatic upgrades. Now when I open iWeb, it just brings up a blank new template. Where did my previous iWeb file go? In the past, when I opened iWeb, the files were just there! It was published to .Mac, but I cannot seem to figure out how to open the file again in iWeb. What happened? It just seems to be gone!

    This problem of the "disappearing domain file" seems to come from updating to V 2.0.2 and not doing a restart.
    You need to try a spotlight search for your "missing" domain.sites2 file to see if it has been moved to another location on your hard drive - failing that, do a manual search. Others have been successful with this.
    One of the things you have to realize about iWeb is that it doesn't back your files up anywhere. You have to backup the domain.sites2 file yourself and update it every time you make changes.
    If anything goes wrong and you don't have an up to date domain file - you're screwed!

  • I have been dragging my files to a external drive to have a back-up for them and I lost some of my folders. They just went completely missing. I didn't delete them, and it was all stuff that I have worked on in the past month. How do I get them back?

    You really should be doing backups with an actual backup application, especially one that will work automatically, and, if your external HD is large enough, back up your entire system.  These can automatically back up only what's changed since the  previous backup, and some will keep "archive" copies of things you've changed or deleted, also.
    Too many things can go wrong, such as your internal HD failing, and you'll have a major project to reinstall everything.
    You already have Time Machine, built-in to OSX.  You might want to review the Time Machine Tutorial, and perhaps browse Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.
    #27 in the second link mentions some alternatives, too.

  • Iweb 1.1.2 won't open, error message, index.xml file is missing

    i am using version 1.1.2
    i opened iweb and made a very very minor correction.
    i went into 'inspector' and saw that 'make all links inactive'
    was checked so i unchecked. i published and when i opened it again
    it was checked. so i made an extremely minor change on one of my pages....
    changed the angle of a drop shadow 1 degree....then published again.
    now iweb will not open. i get an error message that says
    'index.xml file is missing. none of my copies of the domain file will
    open. none. including old copies that i copied to a disc. all domain files
    whether on the hd or exterior drives get the same error message.
    i'm guessing that some how that file got corrupted.
    how do i install iweb again and if so how do i retrieve all my work?

    I't not iWeb that got damaged but the domain file. The index.xml file is inside the domain.sites file that's located in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. Do you have a backup of that file you can revert to?  If so then do it.  Otherwise a long shot but try the following:
    close iWeb.
    delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    go to your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
    launch iWeb and try again.
    If that doesn't help continue with:
    move the domain file from your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
    launch iWeb, create a new test site, save the new domain file and close iWeb.
    go to the your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
    move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
    launch iWeb and try again.

  • Tried loading the latest version of itunes but the download would not complete. Now when I connect my phone to a usb i get an error stating required files are missing, reinstall itunes. I tried that but the reinstall keeps timing out?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • "Install completed successfully", but many files are missing.  (J2SE)

    I have had nothing but problems with java so far and I am about ready to consider it a mediocre and unpredictable programming language that I can do without. Please help as i am quickly losing patience, especially on 56k when i have to download non-functional 80mb files. Anyways, this problem is happening on winxp home ed. thanks

    . I did it on HSD cable
    this time and again the file sizes match. but, when i
    go to a command prompt, and type java or javac, they
    are unrecognized commands.You need to set up your PATH environment variable to include the path of the java.exe and javac.exe files. For the current command prompt, typing in:
    set PATH=%PATH%;C:\j2skd1.4.2\bin
    Would do the trick. Change the directory, if you've installation is different. Then java and javac should be recognised.
    and when i try to compile
    an applet in netbeans that i wrote before and works
    fine with an online compiler, it gives the error:
    java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: main
    Exception in thread "main" Netbeans is treating your applet as an application. You should tell it it is an applet. I'm not sure how to do it, sorry. Best thing would be to use NetBeans to compile, but load the applet in an external browser.

  • Tried to delete an FM book, but won't delete; however files are missing

    I'm using RH7 in TCS1 in Windows Explorer.
    I imported FM book files by reference into my project. I had forgotten to check abook file prior to import and didn't notice that the book file did not have the necessary graphics.  So I fixed the file, then tried to update the book file in RH7.  The graphics did not import into RH, so I thought I would start over from scratch and delete the book file in RH.  It will not delete and causes RH to crash.  The delete option is available, but it doesn't delete them.
    So I went into Windows Explorer and deleted the files from there.  Then I get a message that says files are missing, and that I need to delete them from Project Manager which is what I was trying to do in the first place.
    Can someone please help me delete these files?

    Just an update to this posting.  I did not have the latest RoboHelp patches installed.  For some reason, RH wouldn't let me install
    them.  So I had to have a complete uninstall of RH, then reinstall it.  Once I did
    that I installed all of the patches and my book files were deleted.

  • How do I Import my iWeb Files from one Mac to Another

    I have iWeb files that are on one Mac and want to import to another Mac.
    How do I do this with having one domain file, completely erase the other domain file that has different files?
    This is BRUTAL trying to move, copy and import iWeb files between family Macs!!!

    You are actually better to split your domain file so that each site can be loaded individually into iWeb and published separately. See....
    http://iwebfaq.org/site/iWebMultiplewebsites.html
    You'll note from this that you can also use a third party application to handle these file and iWebsites used to have a merge function. I don't use it so I don't know if it works with the latest version of iWeb.

  • ITunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing.  How

    I have tried the "repair" option to fix my "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing error message."  No luck.  I have rebooted.  No luck.  I am afraid to reinstall iTunes.  I have already lost my music once when I fried my computer.  I don't want to have to purchase my music AGAIN.  Is this really the only way to fix this?  Do I have to uninstall before I re-install?

    There are a few ways to fix this. For me, going to add/remove programs and then clicking on itunes, CHANGE, then REPAIR worked. I was also getting an issue that after a few days or a reboot, it would kill itself again..
    Others have to completely uninstall itunes and quicktime, erase their program files directories, then reinstall quicktiem first then itunes.
    Others have to uninstall itunes, go to internet explorer and clear the recent downloads and the cache, then close ie, redownload, and then install itunes.
    Good luck!

    If you have 64bit Vista or Windows 7, look for the seperate download of iTunes for that further down the page.
    Once installed, use the Apple Software Update under your Start Menu to fully update all Apple components.
    Your content will remain on the drive in the Music > iTunes Folder, nothing is deleted.
    You should be making backups of your content regularly, either through iTunes or via copying the iTunesFolder in your Music folder to a external drive.
