IWeb 08 - my site works on my laptop, but is MEGA slow on a Windows machine

My iWeb constructed site - published to a folder, then uploaded to my domain using Transmit (which is fully functional!) works on my laptop(s) but is MEGA slow on a Windows machine....and considering there's a lot of 'sheep' using Windows out there...AND the website involved is a business (a shop) www.ukdk.dk then I'm losing some business.
What could be the problem?
It works on BOTH my 2 Mac laptops (a G5 & a G4) , I've checked with the web-host/provider and all is fine there. When I used my old G4 to construct a website there was no problem of this manner. It's since iWeb 08 has been used.
I've got the latest updates, have slimmed down the website to 'try' and make it faster (which takes away it's groovey look, which detracts the charm of the site so that's a bloomin' nuisance) and have done everything within my power/knowledge to sort this. To no avail.
HELP!

The business is a shop. A small one. Even before (note: BEFORE) I let anyone at all know about the site's existence I checked it out on both a Mac - my own 2 - and a dreaded Windows machine. Worked fine with Mac, but not with Windows. This isnt with any traffic other than MYSELF visiting the site! I'd love to hear of other iWeb '08 users and their sites so I can check them out to see if they have the same problem. It's strange that I didn't get this when using my iBook G4's iWeb software.
Maybe I'll try transfering the domain file from laptop (New MacBook with iWeb '08) to laptop (Old iBook G4 with older version of iWeb) and seeing if that helps. A thorough pain in the backside if so, but at least the site will be working!
"Technical support!!!" Lol.
Just as an aside....what are the settings I should use at my host/web-hotel for optimum performance? I have them set already, but I want to double & triple check 'em. Better safe than sorry etc.
Thanks in advance!!! :))

There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it.

I have a WiFi home connection. It works on my laptop but has stopped working on my iPad, which I tried resetting but it didn't help. It recognises the SSID but then asks for IP Address, Subnet Mask, Router etc. Any ideas on what to do?.

Hey janicem42177174,
Adobe no longer supports the installation and use of Acrobat 6 as it is a very old version which is not compatible with Windows 7.
I would suggest you to please use the latest version of Acrobat i.e. 11.0.10 which is fully compatible with your OS with its enhanced features and functions.
You might download a free 30-day trial version of Acrobat from here:
Download Adobe Acrobat free trial | Acrobat XI Professional
Let me know how it goes

Youtube, twitter, facebook doesnt work on my mac (10.4.11). It works on other networks, at the same time, these sites works on other laptops in this network

Yutube, twitter, facebook doesnt work on my mac (10.4.11).
I checked my mac with other networks, it worked.
I complained to my network provider, but to my surprise, these sites
works on other systems (HP/DEL etc) on my network but
it doesnt open on my Mac pro.
I wonder what the reason could be.

I'm running v10.4.11 on an older Mac laptop with Safari 4.1.3 installed and no problems accessing those sites. Click your Apple menu / Software Update just in case there's an update available.
Check Safari / Preferences - Security. Make sure Java is enabled.
Cookies could also be a culprit. Back to Safari / Preferences - Security. Click: Show Cookies.
Delete the YouTube, Twitter, and FB cookies. Quit then relaunch Safari.
If it's not cookies, try uninstalling then reinstalling the Flash plugin which is required for all three sites.

Site works in the app, but not in the browser.

Hello iWeb experts,
I've got problems.
Last night I published my site. And while it appears, and functions, properly in my iWeb app, it doesn't do the same in Safari, Firefox, and Internet Explorer.
Two issues...
FONTS
I chose Bellamie, Univers Condensed, and Marydale as my fonts. From reading these forums, I've discovered those won't wysiwyg on other computers if the fonts aren't available and open on them. So my two choices are to make every bit of text a graphic or to use a set of more universal fonts, correct? So my questions are...One, is there a list somewhere of fonts that will work in any browser? And, two, is there a short-cut, or easy way to transform type into a graphic without having to create image files?
FUNCTIONS
Here are the functions that work fine in iWeb but have gone haywire in all of the browsers I tested...
• The type in one nav link appears smaller than all the rest.
• Some links are active, others are not.
• Rollover highlighting works on some links, but not others.
• Most of the rollover links appear in the proper static color, a few do not.
I've tested these functions on three Macs, one PC, and in the three browsers mentioned above. All of them show the exact same problems. So something must be going wrong with iWebs coding, or my host server musn't like iWeb.
Any thoughts, suggestions on these two issues? Thanks much for any advice.
John
PS - For reference, see: www.johnrunk.com

Fascinating, Kirk (+he types with one raised eyebrow+).

When I drag across your page most of your links do not change. The "text" portion of them doesn't change, either. Something is covering them.
I can see that. But for the life of me, I don't know what could be covering those links. In my app, when I click in the area of the links, the type is the first item selected. Unless, possibly, it could somehow be the faint reflection of my black-and-white image (me & the ground I stand on). Hmmm...
QuickTimeKirk wrote:
Single click (outside the boundaries of your page contents) and an "outline" will appear. It shows the image file dimensions and locations.
This I don't see. An outline? As in "an object outline," or as in "a list of dimensions and locations?" When I click outside my page contents, I get nothing.
Thanks, QTK. I truly appreciate your troubleshooting here.

Sites work using manual proxy but not with automatic detect

I asked this in the ISA forum but they said since the WPAD file isn't generated by ISA to cross-post over here.
We have an ISA 2006 build 5.0.5712 operating as our web proxy. We have WPAD configured both in DNS and in DHCP to point to this ISA server. There are two sites (rentsentinel.com and epmsonline.com) which when we use the 'Automatically detect settings' option
in IE8, it either gives red X's in part of the homepage (rentsentinel), or doesn't show the page at all (epms). If we manually specify the proxy settings for this same server, it works fine. It would also appear that one can browse fine on random sites, but
once we attempt to browse to one of these two sites, that further browsing to other sites no longer works, even those we visited in the same browsing session.
If I manually specify the http://wpad/wpad.dat file in the config field, no change in behavior. But if I use that same entry in Firefox, both websites render fine. Our wpad.dat is included below, with our internal domain
name switched to domain.com.
I'm looking for help on getting these sites working correctly with automatic detection. Thanks!

Hi,
Sorry for the late response.
Since the issue is complex and difficulty to troublshooting, we discussed for some time corssing the specialty. Here is some direction we may let you know to do further troubleshooting:
capture network trace to confirm whats happening across the wire.
confirm the wpad.dat is the expected.
If you have any difficulty when doing this, we suggest you to contact with IT Pro Support via the link below:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/ms772425?WT.mc_id=SMCfoot_ENUS_TEXT
I think it can help you define the root cause via some deeper tools due to the complicated symptom you have.
I appreciate your understanding and time.

Extras notes --- iPod works fine in iTunes, but doesn't show up in Windows

Hi all!
Gotta wierd situation.
My iPod works fine in iTunes.
I have had 'Enable for Disk Use' enabled for a long time. However, my iPod doesn't show up under My Computer on WinXP.
I'd like to add some new Notes and remove some old ones, but you have to do that thru Windows, not thru iTunes.
Any ideas how to fix this problem?

hi marky!
i noticed one thing. the iPod is formated as FAT32, but i have my HD in NTFS. could this be related?
no, that one's normal. we need to leave her as FAT32. see:
iPod no longer plays music after formatting or partitioning the hard disk
hmmmmm. it's like the "enable disk use" setting is just refusing to stick for you.
but maybe we've got a window of oppportunity while it's doing that initial sync. the rules seem to be different for you then.
maybe try switching enable disk use off. then eject her, and plug her back in again (while you've got itunes already running).
the second she shows up in the itunes sourcelist, try diving into the preferences tab, and re-enabling disk use.
(i checked, and it's possible for me to do this with attractive beast ... hoping here that doing the "enable disk use" under these circumstances might get it to stick for you.)

I purchased Adobe Acrobat 9 standard. It still works on my laptop but not on my desktop. It says Error 1311 source file not found setup files.

I tried the "repair" feature but it does not work. Please help.

Rave,
Thanks for your response. I purchased my Acrobat 9 standard online. It is still functioning fine on my laptop. It is the desktop I am having issues with.
A while back I downloaded the trial version of Pro. After 30 days, I determined that I didn't want it, so I declined to buy it. Right after that, my install files were gone. I suppose when they uninstalled the trial version they took my original files as well. I see nowhere to download from the Adobe site my replacement original files. What else can I do??

My site works in Composer preview, but not on the web.

I have just created a site w/ composer(through mozilla) and it works when i preview the index.html in the mozilla browser. So I am now using the fetch demo to ftp transfer my files to my domain(www.swansondesignline.com) which i registered through nameroute.com. when i view my page everything works except for my images. yes, they are all .jpeg & .gif....no, there are no spaces in the file names....no, i have not changed the location of these files. any help?

Looks fine here too. However, since this discussion forum is for iWeb, you may find better support in a forum that is specifically for composer.
