IWeb 'hijacked' my site

After going through iWeb earlier made pages and without saving a Google search now results in a wrong header. How is this possible and how can I undo this so that people who search for me get my URL propoerly?

Hi, thanks for the reply. This is my URL: www.raoulteulings.com and the search url is: http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=raoulteulings.com&ie=UTF-8&o e=UTF-8
The title le Moulin du Merle is from a site I made in iWeb and has just been checked by me without saving anything. After that I saw that by googling my name it popped up. And now I hear that people cannot find my website because they are getting confused by the search result. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

  • Teachers sharing one dot mac with iWeb need help- sites are being lost

    Sorry to be lengthy- Here's the question and issue first and then the background.
    Question/Issue: Anyone know a way we can have multiple people (eventually 20 or so) with their own computers creating sites in iWeb and publishing them to a common dot mac account without wiping each other out?
    Background:I am a teacher and at our school we have a single dot mac account. A few of us have been using iWeb (2 on iWeb 08 and 1 on iWeb 06) and posting our sites to dot mac with no problems. The iWeb 06 sites went to a folder under Web> Sites>iWeb in our dot-mac's iDisk; the iWeb 08 sites were directly under the Web>Sites folder. When sites were uploaded from different computers there was no problem (they all had unique names) and it worked great until this week.Even the 2 users both on iWeb 08 could send their sites to the iDisk and nothing would be deleted, just more site folders were added.
    We are now all on iWeb 08 and so nothing goes into the folder on the dot-mac's iDisk under iWeb, they all go as unique sites- no problem I thought.
    Our problem is now that when any one of us update our sites, it wipes out everyone else's site (since their site isn't on our computer). It didn't used to be that way 2 weeks ago !!! Could this be something new with the migration to mobile me (if it is, this really ***** for us)
    I know a solution is to publish the sites to folders and then drag to the dot mac in sub-folders under Web>Sites instead of publish and each of us can have our own folder, but its a pain and not all of the teachers will be able to do this.
    I think there is a feature in iWeb06 called personal domains, but I think we can only have 2, so not sure if this will help.
    Does anyone know a way to set the defaults in the domain.sites2 file or in iWeb so it will use a sub-folder when loading up to dot mac? This way each of us can have our settings different and it will load for us automatically on the iDisk.
    Does anyone know why this used to work and now it doesn't?
    Any other ideas- Help Please

    From my own experience.
    When you publish to dotMac the index.html file in the root redirects to the top Site in the list of the iWeb domain file.
    I use ca. 40 Sites in some 30 domain files. And most are customized after publishing. Plus a lot more irregular stuff.
    iWeb remembers what Site in which domain was published last.
    When I choose a different domain file, iWeb will create a new index.html file to redirect to the "new" Site.
    As far as I could determine, none of the either published Sites are deleted. If iWeb did delete previous published Sites I would not change domain files.
    In your case the following will happen. Every student publishes his/her Site(s). The last one published will be the default Site.
    As long as no-one changes his/her Sitename or add a new Site at the top of the list, the default Site last published will be that.
    Make sure everybody's Sitename is unique.
    I use a custom index.html file in the root. So I have to pay attention that when I publish a new site, the custom index.html page is overwritten. I keep a copy of that index.html file in the root. I can replace the index.html file in case of emergency.
    Does anyone know a way to set the defaults in the domain.sites2 file or in iWeb so it will use a sub-folder when loading up to dot mac? This way each of us can have our settings different and it will load for us automatically on the iDisk.
    Don't look for hidden settings. If it was possible, it would be visible in the preferences. Accept the way iWeb/dotMac does its job. It wasn't designed to be used by multiple users with multiple computers and only one account. That should give you a hint.
    All other problems are purely organizational. Personally I wouldn't trust multiple persons on one account. Give them their own account. If they mess up things they are responsible. Or find another solution.

  • Mea Culpa - Internet Explorer now renders my iWeb 2 test site correctly?

    After umpteen server tweaks I finally got my iWeb 2 test site uploaded
    http://www.mjweber.com/mjwredsite/mjweber/welcome.html
    It displayed as designed in Safari on my MBP. I then fired up XP in Parallels and loaded the site in Internet Explorer. I didn't expect it to work but it did. Now I'm really stymied!
    I've had numerous compatibility issues with iWeb 2 and IE in the past week paralleled here by hundreds of other posts here. Now, when I finally upload the site, it suddenly works?
    Either the Internet gods are playing with me or the IE incompatibility stems from launching a published iWeb 2 folder from a local XP hard drive. That's where my navigation menus didn't display. What else can I say? I'm going to have a drink.
    I'd appreciate independent site validations by anyone not using Safari or OS X... Linux, Unix, Windows, Netscape, IE, etc. Thanks!

    Hi thanks for the advice, the text is centred vertically , left aligned and there is plenty of space at the end. I will try increasing width/height but not sure if that will help as box is already much bigger than text.
    In fact it works perfectly on another web page ...thats what surprising ....even the html for the two pages is identical from what we can see!
    Take a look at
    www.cibsys.com/cibsys1/index.html on the UK site and run down the various pages on the left side to see what happens (if you have IE on a PC). On the PC on some pages perhaps 30% eg workflow services the menu on the left fails to draw correctly leaving the text un readable.
    Thanks

  • If I switch on my iCloud will I still be able to access my iWeb created web site currently on MobileMe. I understand I need to find anotherhost before June, but I would like to access iCloub before then.

    If I switch on my iCloud will I still be able to access my iWeb created web site currently on MobileMe. I understand I need to find another host before June, but I would like to access iCloub before then.

    If you want to migrate your MobileMe account to iCloud you do so at http://me.com/move . You will need Lion 10.7.2 on your Mac to be able to use its facilities. Your calendars, contacts, bookmarks and email will be moved to iCloud.
    Your iDisk, including website hosting and Gallery, will be unaffected and can still be accessed as before, though the migration process will probably sign you out in System Preferences>MobileMe and you will need to sign in again there.
    You will continue to be able to use your iWeb site as before. As you say, this will cease at the end of June. This page examines some alternatives:

  • Where does iWeb save the site file?

    Sorry guys but this is a lazy man's question.
    Where does iWeb save the site file when you click the save button?
    Is it saved as a seperate file or is it hidden within the program?
    I not talking about publishing it.

    Yes there is...I'll refer you to Apple's own technote...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303670
    But you probably don't want to keep it on your iDisk. The file could be huge and the back and forth network bandwidth involved may make iWeb opens and saves unbearably slow. I've always recommended one of those cheap USB flash drives to keep a potable Domain file on.
    Has this been "helpful" to you?

  • IWeb 09 published site does not match what I've created!

    So after working countless hours on a website, I finally finished it and used Cyberduck to upload the files. Once it finished I was so excited to check out the website only to find that a lot of the content does NOT match what I have created on my desktop iMac. Even widgets youtube and html snippets aren't working, but are working fine within iWeb as I have created the site. The fonts have uploaded all wrong and even borders and frames look different or aren't there all together. Also, the Google Map widget is causing some error through cyberduck upload and says it can't load it. How come my iWeb site looks great on my computer, but is totally hosed when uploaded to the FTP server? I'm freaking out and am desperate for help.
    The website is www.mikewarobickgolf.com
    I'm running Lion as well.
    What do I need to do to get all the content of my iWeb site uploaded properly to the server? Please help!
    If I am already screwed from running iWeb 09 with Lion, can you recommend an iWeb replacement? I'd rather get the site up now with iWeb and work on replacing it a later time if at all possible.

    You need to upload the Scripts folder to get your Widgets to work.
    Try getting the full embed code for your Google map and pasting it into the HTML Snippet rather than use the Widget. According to Cyclosaurus ( the only person outside of Apple who seems to understand widgets), the Google maps widget won't work when MobileMe closes down at the end of the month.
    I don't recommend any of these apps. As long as iWeb functions OK after the end of the month, I would continue using it until something better comes along.
    In theory, Flux is probably the best bet since its a hybrid of code entry and drag and drop. In my opinion its too complicated and is not going to produce leaner code unless the user learns how to work with an external stylesheet. By the time you add inline styles and all that positioning info you're going to end up with more bloated code than an iWeb created site!
    I don't know why someone can't come up with an app like iWeb that will utilise an external stylesheet and uses code injection and plugins. The big problem with iWeb is that apple didn't allow third party developers to create new widgets and responsive templates.
    The main reason that I stopped using iWeb for new sites is that it can't produce responsive designs for mobile devices such as the iPhone. To extend its life, I did come up with an idea for producing a mobile version which may help some iWeb users...

  • Is iWeb designed webpage/site uploadable only to .mac?

    If I create an iWeb designed webpage/site will it be uploadable to any other web host or is it designed to work exclusively with .mac? I already have registration with and plan to use Godaddy.com. If iWeb is incompatible, then what is a good, basic, software program for designing a basic business webpage or site consisting of no more than 3-4 pages? Thanks.

    Hi,
    Don't get the idea that iWeb works only for small sites. I have two sites, each encompassing over 100 pages of text plus graphics. it works fine for them, so long as no webpage is too long -- in which case, only part of the page shows when it is published to .Mac. I solved that problem by ending each page before the point where it quits publishing, and then add a "NEXT >>>" link, which carries the reader to the next webpage where the information continues.

  • Iweb password protected site has errors

    I password protected my site on iweb in the site inspector awhile ago (and published this change).
    I go to Safari, and go to my site.
    It asks for the password which I put in correctly. I don't check off "remember in my keychain."
    It then displays another pop-up that says:
    To view this page, you need to log in to area “idisk.mac.com” on web.mac.com:80.
    I then enter in my username/password again, and it keeps popping this window open.
    I usually end up quitting Safari to get rid of this error.
    I tried these steps with just clicking Cancel instead of adding username/password on the idisk pop-up, and it still keeps popping the login window.
    So, I tried to login my website on Firefox, and there was no problem whatsoever. I put the username/password in, and it went to the site.
    What could be causing the error in Safari?

    Have you tried deleting the iWeb preference file, com.apple. iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder and then try again.
    Additionally, the following was posted on the MacInTouch site yesterday. Although for a different problem the fact that it clears the MobileMe preferences it may help in your case.

    After waiting a day for the rolling restore to happen, I called AppleCare because Apple had sent an email saying my service was back, and it wasn't. I still could send and not receive using Mail.
    Here is what fixed it. Go to MobileMe (terrible name) in System Preferences, log out. Then enter a garbage name and password and try to log in. This apparently clears the MobileMe preferences. Then enter your real UserName and PassWord. For me this was lights on.
    I am left wondering how long ago I could have had email had I known this preference reset scheme."

  • IWeb 09 Multiple sites with multiple MobileMe accounts

    Hi guys, one more for you,
    i have my MobileMe account and my website, i also create to more small sites just for testing purpose, i want to know if i can have multiple websites on iWeb and each one with their own MobileMe account.
    (e.g)
    -- site1 ( [email protected])
    -- site2 ( [email protected])
    -- site3 ( [email protected])
    i have only One Mac computer and i have to work on 3 different sites with only this computer.
    Help please... I am new to Mac world ( but i love it )

    Do you really have 3 separate users or just want to publish 3 separate sites? If it's the latter then you can do all of them with just one MMe account. In your domain file with three sites the top size will be the "alpha" site in that if you enter the minimum URL, http://web.me.com/YourMMe_AccountName/, the top site will come up. To go to the other two sites you'll need to add the site name on the end of the URL above, i.e. http://web.me.com/YourMMe_Account_Name/Site_1name/.
    In this economy if you can do what you want with one account that's saving some $$$$.

  • MOUSE-OVER MENUS & iWEB:   my crippled site

    For hours and hours, over the last several months, I've been working with a brilliant programmer who managed to write html/java script/CSS code that created mouse-over menus on my iWeb site. With the help of two additional programs - mass-replace-it and key-maestro, with one stroke, iweb properly exported to a local folder, mass-replace-it introduced my mouse-over code into all html files which were then uploaded to Go-Daddy via an ftp program.
    The result: a 95% near-hit––however, due to our inability to achieve 100% fully functional mouse-over/pull-down menu code, we both finally gave up.
    No joke, this has been one of the deepest disappointments of my adult years.
    Here's the link:
    www.petersolon.com
    I plan to keep up my crippled site for the nest 24 - 72 hours, hoping someone out there can convey why, when any one of a number of pages (for instance, go to "mission" which is one of the Intro pages) - in fact, when most pages, are refreshed, once, twice, 3 or 4 times (particularly in Firefox) - suddenly, entire navigation strings jumps down and beneath the line they should be straddling. In other words, for some unknown reason, again primarily (but not entirely) in Firefox (yes, we're using the latest version) refereshing page several times, at some point, pushes the primary navig. menus to a spot they should not move to.
    We tried every trick in the book, introducing older programming gimmicks like fixed tables, lengthening the "place-holder" iWeb entities that welcome/introduce the appropriate code for each page, getting the iWeb header out of the way, etc, etc - and yet, refresh 1, 2, 3 or 4 times whop/wham: primary nav menus jump down 100 pixels or so, below the very line they should be over - as if some "onload" or java script command or some unfathomable interaction between firefox and iWeb won't allow it to work.
    If anyone can help.....please––we came so close. Finally, programmer gave up due to sheer exhaustion, lack of options, as did I...

    It's a font rendering problem, and it's a repeat-able
    problem in firefox, and to some degree in other
    browser also. I see it in firefox and safari on vista
    machine.
    Try to set monospace font size to something big like
    16-point, and minimum font size to none; play with
    font settings. You will see the problem.
    Cyclosaurus, I really appreciate your taking time to see if it reproduces.
    But it's not a font rendering problem--that much I know.
    In iWeb generated sites - probably sites generated by other software as well - upon refresh, there's often a slight bounce or movement and then movement back--this is for text, graphics, whatever. ("onload" command (??).
    On my site, in the code - only upon refresh (which is the really weird part) - there's something about the positioning of the primary nav string and its relationship to the pink graphic. At one point, each indiv primary navigation menu would "jump over" the pink graphic. However, we "tied" the indiv. primary nav menus to each other using a fixed table, (I'm not a programmer but from what I've heard, I guess this was a programming strategy that was common prior to css.) Anyway, now the whole string either jumps over the pink line - or doesn't - and - again, upon refresh - it also jumps back to its proper position. When it jumps back to its proper position (relative to pink graphic), mouse-over menus work fine.
    It seems to be related to primary nave string's position vis a vis pink graphic - and (weirdly) refresh.
    We tried removing the "on-load" command from iWeb's code but that didn't work. Tried removing height commands - but that didn't work. Tried removing all elements from a typical page, one by one - but that didn't work.
    Any further help would be appreciated...thank you much again....

  • I am unable to open my iWeb-created web site, for which I have a backup.

    My web site is online and I want to access it to make changes. It does not appear when I open iweb, but I have a backup copy on my desktop. When I move backup onto icon for iweb, it doesn't open it. How can I open it again? Since my last opening of it, I've installed the new OS-X software - 10.9
    I'm not very computer literate, but I did download the file:
    file:///Users/monicaanderson/.Trash/iWeb%20Switch%20Domain.app/
    file:///Users/monicaanderson/.Trash/iWebDrop%2013-50-25-235.app/
    I copied these links from my download folder and neither would open.
    Can anyone help me -- in simple terms
    Thank you

    iWeb has no import facility, so is unable to open any published website at all.
    All the data from your iWeb sites is stored in what is called your domain.sites files.  These can be located under your User Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites.  Find this file and double click it and iWeb will open it.
    The User Library is hidden in Mavericks, so to display it you need to click on the Go menu at the top and then click the alt key and your User Library will then be displayed and then you need to go to Application Support and then iWeb and then you will find your domain.sites files from there.
    If you can't find these files, then you are looking at re-building your site from scratch and there is no way in which you can alter your site because unfortunately the backup of your site that you need is your domain.sites files and not a published version - this is not good in iWeb because iWeb has no import facility so cannot open it.

  • Saved and published updated website, changes not saved in iweb.  Have lost all work in iweb but correct site is on the internet.  Can I retrieve site from internet and replace to iweb so can continue updating?

    Just finished updating web site, saved and published.  Showed up on the internet finr, went back to do a few tweeks and all my days work is gone!  Fine on the net gone in iweb!  I don't want to loose the days work.  Is there any way to get the website from the internet and stuffit back into iweb, without redoing all the work?  Why didn't it save?  Wjat can I do to prevent this happening again?  Where did I go wrong?

    Publish you site to a folder on your hard drive and open it locally with your browser.  Check to see if the site is all there.  If not
    Try the following:
    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 publish to the folder 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.

  • Iweb 08 new site

    I know its a bit cheeky, but if anyone has created a new site using the new features of iweb 08, can i have a look at it? Cheers, Rob.

    Here's my web site:
    http://www.theblueparrot.info
    It's a pop culture/entertainment blog site with new content 6 days a week.
    I had been using iWeb Enhancer to add html snippets so using the Widgets is a pretty simple change. I've got a Paypal button and an Amazon Honor System button, as well as a Technorati piece. Some of my blog entries have had YouTube videos as well. All seem to work ok, so far.
    I'll also be adding a Photo gallery in the next few days. Little by little.
    The site has some formatting issues with the Safari 3 Beta, but so far so good in Firefox and on IE on the pc side of the world.
    The most annoying issue is the naviagtion bar won't display properly.
    I have another site I'll be exporting to a non dot mac host later today. Will be interesting to see how it makes the transition.
    I haven't had any issues with iWeb crashing and find it is a bit faster in some things, especially when publishing.
    Overall, my iWeb '08 experience has been postive.
