IWeb counters can prevent publishing.

I've had a **** of a time with iWeb publishing lately.
When I try to add a counter button to any of my pages it prevents iWeb from publishing. I get a "Cannot publish: Uknown error" message.
If you have problems publishing try removing the counters, it may help.
Just a suggestion.

Where are you publishing to? - .Mac or another hosting service?

  • IWeb '08: Can I publish to sites other than .Mac?

    I'm new to using a Mac but I was wondering if iWeb can be used to publish to sites hosted by other servers like godaddy or something similar?

    Yes. Publish the site to a folder and then upload the files as instructed by the host.

    I have upgraded my iWeb to 2.0.1 twice, installed the program twice, and spent hours "re-dialing" (as suggested by some comments in the discussion) web.mac by trying hundreds of time to publish all the files. I have done this for over a week. The files seem to "appear" on both my end and .mac, but when I try to "visit" the page via any browser or the iWeb menu, I am told that the page cannot be found. Is there any way I can access my files via Dreamweaver?

  • How can I Publish to a Folder just one of the several websites I have created using iWeb?

    How can I Publish to a Folder just one of the several websites I have created using iWeb?
    it drives me nuts having to emove all the other websites when I want to upload one.

    For iWeb, I like to do only one site per domain file.  I move domain files out of the Application Support folder and place them inside project or client folders, or in DropBox. Once you duplicate a domain file and begin customizing it, it will load and behave as a separate project/site.
    I publish each iWeb domain/project direct to a server via FTP. Sometime I publish to a folder, then upload via FTP manually.
    iWeb is a remarkable tool, especially when you work from scratch with blank tamplates
    Here are a few of my iWeb sites:

  • I upgraded from iWeb '06 to iWeb '09-now I can't publish to a folder

    I'm having 2 issues after upgrading from a powerbook G4 running Tiger with iWeb '06 to a macbook pro running Snow Leopard with iWeb '09. I migrated my website created with iWeb '06 over to iWeb '09 and I'm having 2 issues.
    1. Every page in the website brings up a window that says "The following errors occurred while trying to open this document: Type: Substituted Font; Description: The font "Arial-BoldMS" was substituted for..."
    Then it says "To include missing fonts, add them to your fonts folder, then quit and reopen iWeb."
    This happens every time I open iWeb, even after I click "Continue" in the dialogue box. Where can I find the font that is being replaced--it doesn't list it in the dialogue window. And how can I download it to add to my fonts folder?
    2. When I try to "Publish Entire Site" or "Publish Site Changes," a dialogue window pops up saying "Publish Error: Can't create the file "index.html." The disk may be damaged or full, or you may not have sufficient access privileges."
    I am the administrator user, so that's not the issue. I have over 300 GBs of free disk space, so that's not the issue. The disk is not damaged because everything else is working just fine.
    I am not familiar with the way iWeb '09 publishes. In iWeb '06, when I selected "Publish to a folder" from the File drop down window, it brought me to a screen in order to select a folder to which to publish. That feature is gone in iWeb '09, with the "Publish entire site" and "Publish site changes" taking its place, but I don't see where it has options to configure FTP or even input where you want your site to go and what domain name it is. How do I direct iWeb to publish the site to a folder or upload it to my Godaddy.com web host?
    Thanks for your help.

    For the font problems, try the "Safe Mode" suggestion in this old thread:

  • I can't publish to iWeb, it doesn't seem to be able to login to my icloud account. any ideas?

    I've been trying to publish a site on iweb. It seems that iweb is unable to sign in to my icloud account. I push the publish to mobile me tab, push the sign into your account tab,( already a member). I get the barbers pole for 30 seconds or so, and then, nothing happens.  Any ideas anyone?

    MobileMe closed in July last year.
    iCloud does not offer webhosting.
    You have to find a webhost.
    It's been discussed for the past 2 years in this forum, the MMe forum and all over the planet.
    Browse this forum.
    In short :
    Find a webhoster.
    And since you use iWeb 08, publish to a folder and use an FTP app to put the files on the server.
    Oh, and look to the right. I see these topics :

  • Can't publish larger files in iWeb 09

    Hi
    Have recently updated my iWeb to 09 and had accidentally deleted my old Domaion file so had to rebuild site from scratch. Anyway, since I have, it gets stuck on pages that have any larger files on them (movie and audio files) despite having plenty of space in my MobileMe account. I get "Try again later" message.
    Have managed to publish successfully to a local folder which I then tried copying with index to 'Sites' on my iDisk but that that too presents a problem saying "The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in "" could not be read or written. (Error code -36)
    I'm baffled! All I want to do is publish my site without any hassle, the files aren't that big only about 40 MB each. Can anyone suggest anything? Have had a look at iwebfaq and on here and have tried a few things but nothing seems to help so far. Any suggestions would be very gratefully received! Thanks!

    That error code is -36 ioErr I/O error. Can you publish a different site? Crate a small test site and see if it will go thru. If not then it's not just your primary site.
    If you expect to revise the site occasionally or want your visitors not to have to wait for those large files to load while the host page loads you might look at these ways to add a movie or audio file.
    Movie: QT Movies and Opening Item in New, Specially Sized Window. The code used is shown.
    Audio: Flash Audio Players - 3 different types of flash audio players. The code used is shown.
    These methods require loading the movie or audio files only once and do not load on the pages until they are played.

  • Can't Publish to a folder on iWeb

    I host two web sites for a genealogy program ( USGENPROJ ) and have been using an old Pagemill program , with Fetch for my FTP. I just bought iWeb ( part of iLife 8) and started transferring some of my pages over from Pagemill to iWeb. I click "publish to a folder" ( as I'm not using .Mac ). The dialog box asks for my URL ( which I copy & paste right from one of my two existing web sites). When I click to transfer the info to the folder I always get an " unknown error" notice. I've tried a number of times and always get the same error . Please help.

    Roddy: In Pagemill, I select a block of text and "copy" it. Then I open iWeb & choose a "blank" template , draw a text frame and then click "paste". Now I've transferred my selected text to my iWeb page. Everything is working ok at this point and the text is now on my iWeb page. Next, I choose " publish to a folder" as I'm not using .Mac . I want to "transfer" my text to the folder so that I can see what its going to look like on Safari. A dialog box opens up asking me to insert the URL exactly as it will be seen on the web site, so I go to the existing web site and "copy" the URL, then back to the dialog box and "paste" in the URL, then I click" create". At this point I get the "unknown error" message. and a couple of times the Safari site opens up saying it doesn't recognize the URL and it shows something like the following: /users/monty/desktop/site/blank/. I believe I'm following the instructions but it always ends up with the error notice. Thanks for getting back to me -- Monty

  • Can't publish iWeb due to .png error

    can't publish iWeb due to .png error

    With as many people that have this same issue, I am very surprised that support is still sleeping at the wheel.  Some of the suggestions border on the absolute absurd (e.g. create new user account, check the system clock, etc.).  I've tried them all, including exclusion from AVAST, resetting router, etc etc etc.  iCloud status shows all green.
    As the owner of a software development company, I find it hard to believe Apple, of all support, has been unable to get this issue resolved once and for all.  It would certainly make sense, as well, to collate this issue into a single thread instead of bouncing users off the moon and back.
    I spent 1/2 day on the phone with Apple support trying to get iTunes to backup and was promised a call back from the next tier of support.  That was 4 months ago and I still haven't been able to backup my iphone 4S.  I've never seen software that is more kludgy and unreliable with every passing upgrade (sorry, but it's the truth)!
    After two years of not being able to back up my phone, I am considering going to a more reliable platform.  After 6 years on the Apple bus, maybe it's time to get off.

  • IWeb error messages -- can't publish large site after upgrade.

    I just upgraded to iLife 09 and all of my websites showed up red in the new iWeb - indicating that they needed to be published. I hadn't changed any of them since the upgrade but I figured it was part of the upgrade to republish all of them.
    Whenever I try to publish the sites I get the following message:
    An error occurred while publishing file “/private/var/folders/pM/pMWBd0yEF04cfDIeAZkuPE+TI/TemporaryItems/com.apple.iWeb7281_TEMP_288612390_15/sites/JW/Things_and_Such_files/shapeimage2.png”. Try publishing again later.
    I've tried all the usual suggestions. I threw away the preferences files and cache files for iWeb. I logged out of MobileMe and logged back in. I tried to publish from an older version of my Domain file from Time Machine. If I tell it to publish the site to my desktop then it works just fine. The site that it has problems with creates a 179MB folder on my desktop when I publish to my desktop. The other two sites that I have in iWeb publish perfectly in MobileMe but are not bigger than 3 MB each.
    I tried moving parts of the larger site out of it, publishing the significantly shrunken page and then adding the rest back in smaller pieces. It will publish the smaller selection with no problem. It won't let me add the pieces back in, however. IWeb freezes up when I try and I have to reload the previous Domain file from Time Machine.
    So, my question is: Is there a limit to the size of site that can be published using iWeb? If so how do I get around this?

    Reboot fixed it.

  • Can someone help explain why my iWeb website doesn't publish correctly...

    I'm a professor and I'm trying to build a professional website--nothing fancy, six or seven pages and perhaps a blog. The site I have built on iWeb looks wonderful in iWeb, but once I publish the site (GoDaddy is hosting it), various text boxes, fonts, and background shapes get randomly distorted. Moreover, the site has different errors when viewed on my iPad, when viewed on my Macbook in Safari, and when viewed on Macbook in Mozilla. From what I've been gathering, web developers don't like iWeb. I'm not a computer expert, so I like the usability of iWeb (I'm not using any of their prefab templates--that might be the problem). I just want the site that I've built in the program (which looks good) to actually publish correctly. Any help would be greatly appreciated, even if it is just pointing to other software...
    Thanks!

    What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand?   Also if you're considering some serious blogging I suggest you create your blog on one of the established blogging sites like Posterous, WordPress or Blogger. This will allow you to manage your blog from any computer anywhere and even from some mobile devices.  With an iWeb blog you must have a Mac and the domain.sites2 file used to create the site.
    Then you can embed that blog into one of your iWeb pages as shown on this demo page: Embed a Site Within an iWeb Page

  • Can I publish to a desktop folder in iWeb 9?

    Trying to sett up a website via Machighway. There is aknown bug that lets you connect to the server but can't publish the site because the publish button in iWeb is grayed out. How can I get around this? Please and thank you.

    In iWeb 09 you can publish to MobileMe (now canceled), FTP or a folder.
    Click the Sitename on the left and then choose "publish to folder" from the popup menu.
    Then upload the published index.html file and site folder with a FTP app of your choice.
    I'm sure you must have seen it when you configured the FTP settings.

  • DO NOT UPDATE TO iWEB 2.0.3 - I did and I can;t publish anymore!

    Ah, crap. I should have know never to download a new iWeb update before its been out for a few days. Ever since upgrading to 2.0.3 I get the dreaded "An unknown publishing error has occured."
    Once again, Apple f's up iWeb.
    What a joke.

    Hmm. I'm having the same problem. Have tried deleting tffs and pngs just in case it is an old problem recurring (or at least older posts regarding this "unknown publishing error" suggest the images are the culprits). This didn't fix my publishing problem.
    Your fix suggests that the "publish to .Mac" function is (1) different from the "publish all to .Mac," since one works and the other doesn't, and (2) that the "publish to a folder" function is certainly NOT the same as the "publish to .Mac" and (probably?) the same as the "publish all to .Mac". My worry is that if I delete the site folder and then can't publish to it after all, then I might be stuck with no site instead of a dated site. I suppose that simply dragging the site folder from .Mac space to my desktop (and then dragging it back should the fix fail) might work; but, there's no guarantee.
    Has anyone tried a "publish to folder" save after employing this work-around?
    Thanks.

  • Can I publish my iWeb 2.0.4 site?

    Can I publish my iWeb 2.0.4 site? I designed it, hit "publish" and it went to now-defunct Mobile Me...

    I do believe you can publish your website to a folder.
    I think (it's been a while since I have used the older version) in the File menu you should have an option to publish site to a folder.
    Then you will need to use an FTP application like Cyberduck to upload files to your web host.
