IWeb not updating photos

When I update photos on iWeb (I have a Photos page with 9 albums), sometimes the published website "ignores" the updates. Although I save and update a new photo, it just doesn't appear on the website. This doesn't happen every time, or with every album. And sometimes even if I rearrange the albums, to try to give iWeb an extra "push", it doesn't see that change either. Forced updating of the entire website doesn't fix the problem. Any ideas? Updates work fine on other pages, and on some photo albums. I'm running iWeb 3.0.4 on Lion, and the website is not hosted on mobileme. The url is http://www.hsvbrushstrokes.com/HSVBS/Home.html

First you need to make sure you are emptying the browser cache before visiting the published site.
To make sure that iWeb is actually adding the images, publish you site to a local folder...

... and launch it in the browser by double clicking the index.html file. Are the photos present in this version of your site?

IWeb not updating site changes, even overnight!

Hi iWeb-experts,
Having problems with iWeb and have waded through the site and other forums and yet to find a solution.
Site is marccheckley.com. I successfully moved the site before MobileMe closed shop and made updates to the site a few months back.
Now I'm trying to upload further changes but iWeb has stopped functioning. I get no status that the site is being changed, as it was previously. And I know this has not happened as I have it linked to my Facebook and no "updated website" has popped up on my Wall.
I even left it overnight to update website changes and still nothing. Even clearing brower's cache etc. I tested the FTP connection all good and nothing been changed since my last updates a while back.
All 'pages' of site remain red, not updated in iWeb.
Really not sure what's happened. Nothing but probs since the closure of MobileMe, my podcast is still on hiatus due to linking problems, now website issues with iWeb.
Anyone have an idea and fix?
Always appreciated.

If you are using the iWeb FTP to upload make sure the box next to "Update my Facebook profile when I publish this site" is unchecked. Checking this box prevents the FTP from working.
Also make sure you have no bad file names with spaces or special characters - particularly image files. This will halt the upload process.

IWeb not updating web site.

iWeb started out working okay. I kept a blog and updated it. Then I went on a trip. Even though I had wireless internet the whole time, updating kept failing. No error message, but the update clock would stop after being about one-quarter filled. When I came home, there was no difference.
Although this started months ago (before the whole .Mac to MobileMe changeover), I do believe my recent inability to update my web site is related to it. The reason is that although I can access the last updated version of my web site at "web.me.com/myaccountname", when I go to my current iDisk and open the "sites" folder, it's empty!
Is it possible that my account has not yet been changed over to MobileMe yet? I have already installed all OS updates, including the MobileMe update. My account logs in fine.
Any ideas?????

Hey maybe you need to replace only the page that was updated, do not change all the published site, try I just did it and it work I have change a page and a file to be downloaded from the web site, now I can see the changes live on the web. this is what I wrote to others.
Hey I have found not a solution but a way to publish without iWeb, Just did it and I have seen the changes on the web site. If you guys want to try:
I have published my updated web site to a folder on my desktop. then open iDisk from the web (where my web sites files are stored for everyone else to see) then open both windows side by side and only replace the files of the updated pages from the desktop folder to the iDisk folder, there is always a file and a folder with the same name. I just replace them, I then checked on the web and Woalah! changes were made. Well... it did work for now without iWeb, not sure if is the right thing to do but if you are brave enough to follow this go ahead and go to bed as I will until the bug is fixed (hopefully tomorrow) then we can go back to normal. Hope is clear and it help! Rog

IE 10 Will not update photo captions.

Hi I have updated to IE 10 BUT when I view photos from a web site the photos change but the captions do not.
It worked with IE 9 and works with Firefox and Torch but not IE 10 this is a bit annoying when I am trying to vote for my favourite photo. Also it does not open links from a Google search in new tab as it did before.
It did work with IE10 before I installed IE11 then after I had issues with IE11 went back to IE10 and now it does not update the captions also it does not open links from a Google search in new tab as it did before even though I have set Tabs up
in internet options to do just that open a link in a new Tab.
I am running Win 7 Home Premium SP1.
Looks like I am leaving Microsoft and going to use Firefox form now on.

Hi Yolanda,
I have rolled back to IE 9. I tried to post the link in my first post but was not able to due to me not being... something I can’t remember. I am still having the same problems with IE 9 and
have been all over the internet looking for answers to these problems with IE 10 & IE 9 to no avail and by all the posts on many many sites including the many Microsoft sites there are more people having these same problems than people not having problems.
So I am now, after more than 15 years, going to abandon Microsoft and Internet Explorer for
Mozilla Firefox it seems more stable than IE. <o:p></o:p>
So thank you for taking the time to answer but I have had enough with Microsoft not fixing there problems. Oh I did ring the service centre here in Australia, where the call centre is I don’t
know, and the guy told me it's my hardware but with all these other people having the same problem I don't believe that.<o:p></o:p>
Regards<o:p></o:p>

Iweb not updating pdf links

I am using iWeb 3.0.2 and have made a site with many pages and links. Many of the links are to pdf pages. I have recently changed many of the pdf files - but kept the names the same. After publishing the updated site the pdf links still open the old versions of the pdf files. Other links just don't work at all - as if they are not links.
I have tested the site in Safari - after emptying the cache and Firefox.
Any ideas? Help is needed soon. This site is for my department and it is supposed to go on line before the holidays.
The site can be looked at here: http://web.me.com/wijtman/VAS/Home.html

How did you add the links to the pdf files to the page? Did you use the Inspector/Link/Hyperlink pane and use the link to file option? If so I've found that that often does not update as you're experiencing.
I suggest you do the following:
1 - Create a folder titled pdfs and put it in your iDisk/Web/Sites folder.
2 - place your pdf files in that folder.
3 - link to the files as An External Page
Click to view full size
with the following URL:
http://web.me.com/wijtman/pdfs/file_name.pdf
Now when you want to make a change to a pdf file just upload the new file to the pdfs folder on your iDisk replacing the old file. There is no change required to the web page using iWeb.

Error -208! iPod will not update photos!!

My iPod doesn't update my Photos at all. When I plug in the iPod I immediately get the Error -208 message, it skips over the photo update, and moves right to the music update, which the music updates just fine, but not the photos. Any solutions?
I took my iPod to Apple Store a few weeks ago to see what they would say. We tested it out on a computer there and it updated everything perfectly of course, so they couldn't do anything for me. They told me to try and rebuild my iPhoto library when I got home, so I tried that, but it didn't work.

Error -208 is a java error, I believe. You may want to reinstall java on your computer. If that doesn't help, maybe reinstalling iTunes will . . .
Good luck!

Media in iWeb not showing photos in Photos library

I recently upgraded to Mavericks on my iMac and am now attempting to load more photos to my iWeb website. As a result of Mavericks, my iPhoto library has been imported into the Photos library now and no longer show up in the Media panel of iWeb as they did before. All my audio, movies and widgets are still available in the panel, but no photos are found/displayed. I tried to drag and drop directly from the Photos library to my web page but the photos were not incorporated. Is there a way to connect the new Photos library to iWeb or is there an alternate way to connect these two?

The iWeb app hasn't been updated in about 6 years and was dropped by Apple 3 years ago. It's just not compatible with the those features in Yosemite.
You can still use iPhoto if up previously had a version of iPhoto o 9.x or later. Go to the App Store and under Purchases find iPhoto 9.6.1 and download. That will open the iPhoto library and you'll be able to access it from within iWeb 3.0.
At this stage you should consider migrating over to a website application that is supported and has all of the new features that iWeb doesn't. One that many migrated to because it is so like iWeb in it's interface and features is EverWeb.

IWeb not updating published status within application

I'm having a strange iWeb problem that just started up within the last day or so. When I publish any of the sites within my domain (I have seven separate "sites" that are all part of the same domain file) the updates get published to my site, but the icons in iWeb do not change color back to blue. This happens whether I choose to publish changes or publish all.
Another symptom of this problem is that my published site (http://www.adamreisinger.com) does not reflect the changes online until about five minutes after iWeb gives me the dialog box that my site has been successfully updated.
The only thing I've changed on my system recently is applying the last round of software updates, including the iLife update. I've tried trashing the application preferences and the iWeb cache and re-publishing, as well as logging out and logging back into MobileMe within System Preferences.
Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried the steps you outlined, and unfortunately the problem persists. Also, because the files were deleted from the Web folder the iDisk, iWeb is now under the impression that EVERY page has been modified, which has actually increased my publishing time.
Some other troubleshooting steps I've taken to try and narrow down this problem:
- I've tried publishing the domain from a newly created user account on the same computer (MBP running 10.6.2 and all latest updates applied)
- I've tried copying the domain file to a different computer (one that has not had the latest iLife support update applied) and publishing from there
- I've tried publishing to a different MobileMe account (a test account set up by Apple)
- I deleted an entire site from the source list in iWeb (one that, fortunately, was not needed)
After all these steps -- tried individually -- the issue persists.

Iweb not finding photos after move to external hard drive...

so I moved all my photos by copying the iphoto library to a external hard drive, deleting the old library, and telling iphoto to look to the external to find the photos and iphoto works fine.
I launched iweb, tried to go into media, and it said please launch iphoto 2 or later to show photos...I did so and nothing.
How do I point iweb in the right direction in order to work with my photos on the external hard drive?
Thanks so much,
Steve

Might be a job for symbolic links!
I thought there used to be a GUI way to create symbolic links, but maybe there never was.
Anyway, here's a "little" background.
http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=2001110610290643
And, if you're comfortable in the terminal, what you want to do is create a Pictures symbolic link that points to the one on your external drive (not sure what problem this might cause iPhoto... may want to point it to the symbolic link as well).
Something along the lines of
cd /Users/username/Pictures/
then
ln -s /Volumes/name-of-external/iPhoto\ Library iPhoto\ Library
or something like that.

Media Browser in iWeb not showing Photos

Hi
I have read through many of the threads on here from people who seem to have the same problem and tried many of the suggestions, but still do not seem to have improved matters.
I have the message saying that I need to open iPhoto 2 or later. I am running iPhoto 6 and iWeb 1.1.2. I have an iBook G4 with 1GB Ram.
I know it is nothing to do with the little dot and I have also tried deleting various preference files.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

I am having the same problem in Pages 2, Keynote 3, iWeb, iDVD, iMovie ....etc.
iTunes and iMovie's material will show in the Media Browser in all the above apps. But iPhoto will not. If I move the iPhoto Library to my desktop and open iPhoto it will ask me to build a new library. I do, and in all the above apps I can see iPhoto and the library tree. If I grad some of the picture in the Originals folder on my desktop and put it into the new iPhoto library, it imports them just fine and then I open Pages 2 (Media Browser and there is the iPhoto tree.
Sounds like a solution right? Nope!
When I got back and import the rest of the photos from the Original folder on my desktop the Media Browser "loses" or drops the tree and I am left with the Message, "Open iPhoto 2......"
I then deleted the new iPhoto library, keeping my Originals on the desktop and created yet another blank library, opened Pages 2 or Keynote 3 and again I can see the iPhoto tree.
I went to my desktop and put one folder at a time into the new library via iPhoto, then open up Pages 2 (Media Browser) and I can see the tree. YEAH! Then I went an put another folder from the desktop into iPhoto and the tree in Media Browser goes away.
I have found no reason or particular file to be causing this. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is this a Media Broswer error or iPhoto? iWeb?
Notes:
I ran the test each time by completely opening and closing Pages and iPhoto. I am running iPhoto 6.0.6 and Pages 2.0.2

IWeb not updating to MobileMe

hello everyone. I have never posted to this forum before and I am relatively new to macs, so please go easy on me if I come off sounding like an idiot.
I have a webpage that I had previously published through my .mac account. After the update from .mac to MobileMe, my computer can't seem to publish my page. When I click the menu items in iWeb, there are still options that say "publish to .mac" and "publish all to .mac" and NOT "publish to MobileMe." I have checked for new updates to the iWeb software, but the software updater says everything is up to date.
Is there something I need to change within iWeb to make it communicate with MobileMe or is this a central Apple issue? I should mention that I have been able to log into MobileMe and my addresses, calendar, etc. has updated to MobileMe just fine.
I appreciate any and all suggestions. Thanks in advance for your help!!

These issues are happening for everyone it seems. The whole reason I subscribed to the .Mac (MobileMe) service was to be able to use iWeb and publish my own personal site. I'm not a big fan of the Web 2.0 (Facebook, MySpace, etc.), so using this service was a no brainer for me to keep my family and friends updated in the lives of my boys and I without all the work and drama of the other sites.
Anyhow, I know that although my pages are actually publishing, it is quite annoying to be getting the error messages. It's just a constant reminder that Apple still doesn't have things working the way that they should.
I'm sure they will have a fix soon as I'm sure that there are quite a HUGE number of customers out there who are actively seeking out other alternatives.
This situation is annoying, disappointing, and very unprofessional on Apple's part and I'm just a Ms. Everyday Person. I can only imagine these emotions are intensified for those of you who do rely on these services for professional purposes.

IWeb not updating blog site

I am trying to update my blog but even tho iWeb on my computer shows the change, the archive on the web site also shows the change, the home page does not. Does anyone have any ideas for why this doesn't work? My blog page is:

if you want to take a look at it and see exactly what I am talking about.
Thank you.

Hi,
I see it all fine. You must have fixed it or....
Maybe what you had was a cache problem. Since your pages weren't cached in my browser I saw it fine. But the old pages were most likely cached in your browser. After you update....clear the cache in Safari. Another method is to add a question mark at the end of the url address. That forces it to clear. Also over time it will natually update......so after awhile you will see the changes w/o clearing the cache.

Photo Stream not updating photos taken while PC out for repair

Hi Everybody,
Odd issue here. I sent my PC out for repair recently. While it was gone, I took a number of photos on my iPhone. The PC came back, and none of the photos are downloading to my PC. The odd part is that any NEW photo that I take IS downloading (I took a picture tonight that downloaded to my PC very quickly). How can I get it to pick up those other photos, and why is it not picking them up?
Thanks!

Bump... any thoughts? I've Googled the crap out of this and just can't come up with any solutions.
