IWeb not opening after some issues with an existing site...

Hi there~
I’m a relatively new Mac user and a former PC/Dreamweaver user. I’m having a bit of an issue with iWeb. I’ll do my best to keep what happened relatively brief:
1. I had created and published a site a couple of months ago, but the page that contained photo albums seemed to have become corrupted. Every time I tried to open that page, iWeb would crash.
2. I recreated that page but then was not able to delete the corrupted version. So I recreated the whole site.
3. I published the new site, and everything seemed to be working well in the live version.
4. To avoid confusion in the future, I wanted to get rid of the old site. When I deleted that site, I saw that it said something about deleting it from the Web as well. I realized that this may cause problems because most of the pages would have the same names, but I was hopeful that since the new site had all of the pages I could just republish.
5. The new site did indeed get messed up after I deleted the old site. So I set the new site to republish, and then I got an error message.
6. I figured just for safety’s sake I would undo the deletion of the old site and just leave it for a while in the hopes that the new site would then work again.
7. After I did this, the old files reappeared, but then iWeb froze. (I think... My memory is a little fuzzy here...)
8. I closed and reopened iWeb, but all that appeared was that little right-hand box that lets you see the properties of certain things (Page, Photos, Text, etc). I also restarted the computer, and now when I open iWeb, that little box is still all that I’m getting.
I grabbed what I could from the live version and my history files so that I can recreate the site from scratch if I need to, so I’m not terribly worried about getting my files back. I did have another site created in iWeb that seemed to be fine, it would be nice to not have to start over with that one, but obviously I can if needed. Maybe those files can be found elsewhere on my computer?
So will I be able to get iWeb back? Do I need to reinstall it? If so, how do I do that? (Maybe that’s a question for another forum. iLife was installed on the Mac when we got it, I looked briefly for the files on the Applications CD but got a little scared off when I saw something about bundled applications...)
Thanks so much for any help. I called tech support and was directed here, this is new for me, so I hope I’m going about this in the right way. I’ll spend some time looking around to see if anyone has addressed this elsewhere, I just wanted to get things down while it was all relatively fresh in my head.
Thank you!
Jen

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
. Every time I tried to open that page,
That sounds like the problem described here with potential fixes: iWeb & iWork: Applications may suddenly quit after updating to Mac OS X v10.6.2. This is another possible fix: The million dollar trick or how to fix iWeb in 10.6.2

  • Help. My iphone will not charge after some contact with water and it is dead. What do i do?????

    My phone made some contact with water but after putting it in rice, it was fine. The only problem was that it had stopped charging and now the battery is dead and I don't know what to do

    If you try to have it repaired and it still doesn't work, you'll be out that money and still need to buy a replacement phone.  Water damaged phones rarely work well again.  I know you're looking for a lower cost option, but spending the money and getting a phone that works 100% seems to be the best option.  It's your money and your choice, but I wouldn't try to fix a water damaged phone.  Maybe that's just me.........

  • IWeb not opening after iTunes Upgrade

    This evening I downloaded the update for iTunes, now 8.2.1 (6), and since then I have been unable to open iWeb using either the application shortcut in the Dock or via Finder. The iWeb toolbar appears but attempting to click on any of the menu items simply produces the multi-coloured wheel.
    Before the iTunes upgrade was installed I had never had a problem with iWeb or any of the other applications.

    iTunes is the biggest pain on a Mac and I have it set not to open! I haven't updated for so long that I can't remember if a restart is required.
    If you didn't do a restart after upgrading, follow the steps under "Fix iWeb" here...
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/WebMusic/iWebTips.html
    I always restart after updating any Apple software and do it at least a couple of times a week and then run Disk Utility to repair permissions.
    Macs are fairly bomb proof but they do need routine maintenance. I run an weekly incremental backup to a bootable external firewire hard drive every week using Super Duper. This application automatically repairs permissions and then I do a restart.
    Time machine makes us lazy in this respect!

  • I am experiencing some major problems with my MacBook Pro. I have had some issues with it turning on/off at random times, but today, when starting, I get the grey start-up screen and a recovery bar. After filling in approx 1/4 of the way, the machine dies

    I am experiencing some major problems with my MacBook Pro. I have had some issues with it turning on/off at random times, but today, when starting, I get the grey start-up screen and a recovery bar. After filling in approx 1/4 of the way, the machine dies. After starting it in recovery mode, it will not allow me to download OS X Mavericks- it says the disk is locked. Any ideas? I do not have a back-up and do not want to erase everything before I have explored my options. Help?

    try forcing internet recover, hold 3 keys - command, option, r - you should see a spinning globe
    most people will tell you to do both pram and smc resets (google) and if you still have issues, either clean install (easy) or troubleshoot (hard)

  • Withh some issues with itunes I removed then reinstalled itunes.  Now  it tells me "We could not complete your itunes store request.  An un known error occured"  Anyone have this problem?

    With some issues with itunes, I uninstalled then reinstalled itunes. It now Gives me the message "We could not complete your itunes store request.  An unknown error occured"

    "Error 42023" through "Error 42408"
    These alerts might occur when trying to authorize iTunes or during launch when iTunes checks for authorization information.
    Install the latest iTunes from apple.com/itunes/download/
    Remove the SC Info folder.
    If that does not resolve the issue, see iTunes: "Error 42408" or "Error 42404" after upgrading to iTunes 9.0.3.

    Can you attach a screenshot or link to the instructions you are following?
    You are on the 3.6 release and Firefox 7.0.1 is out. You can download and install the latest release from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ if you would like to update now. The 3.6 version will be maintained for a while longer, but you should update when you can.

  • Organizer will not open after I tried backing up photos on external hard drive on Mac. Editor opens, but not Organizer. This is a repost of a problem first reported 10 days ago.

    Organizer will not open after I tried backing up photos on an external hard drive on Mac. Editor opens, but will not launch Organizer. Have tried clearing the catalogs, but nothing works. This was first reported 10 days ago. Had to be out of the country for a week - without photoshop working-- and now I'm back with the same problem. Can someone please help, or do I dump this and try to get some help just reloading the program?

    jnrmendonca
    It had 4 years of photos and videos on it.
    To what did your camera record those photos and videos - camera's internal memory, inserted memory card, other?
    Any remote chance that the latter may still exist for you to use to download the camera files to your new external hard drive?

  • Why new contacts are not appearing after some time?

    I Am using iPhone6, iPad New and iPad mini. The contacts which I saved in iPhone are not appearing after some time. I don't know whether it is related with synchronisation of other devices. Please help me if you know the reason.

    Hi, 
    Have you checked the filtering option in contacts? Open contact menu button > filter. Perhaps you have a filter hiding the contacts.
