IWeb own domain name blocked on MobileMe

Dear Apple experts,
I had a website created via iweb, hosted at apple with its own domain name www.onetobe.be I didn't manage this myself and the person who do it forgot to cancel the site before mobileme closure and even if the CNAME has been modified at the registrar, the domain still point to mobileme. The new web site works with the root name onetobe.be but any configuration I set at the registrar give either mobileme closed page or nothing. Who can I contact to cancel all registration of this site on apple system.
Thank you

Dear Wyodor,
Thank you for your swift and polite answer, I'm not an expert, So sorry if I look like a "rtfm" guy, but this is the reason why I asked for help.
I'm a great apple fan and I was very sad when apple turned down these so useful and easy services such as iweb, idisk, gallery. It seems to me that the "digital me" concept of late M. Job is, well, changing now.
the new web site system for my site (wix) seems to give kind of the same option as redirecting the own domain name to the actual real web site at this wix provider.
If I set the forwarding for onetobe.be to only http://oliviervanhorenbek0.wix.com/onetobe it doesn't work
So I'll asked the registrar how I can un-masquerade the www.onetobe.be.
Any additionnal info for how I can configure the domain "properly" will help me.
Thank you again for your time.

  • Problem with iWeb after associating a personal domain name with my MobileMe

    I think I did this by the book. I associated my personal domain name with my MobileMe account, then changed the CName pointer at GoDaddy to MobileMe (MM), then went back to MM and hit 'Done'. iWeb now lists my MM account as 'My account name (personal domain name). It took a little while for the DNS pointer to propogate, but now I can go to a browser, type in my personal domain name, and MM delivers my iWeb website as I wanted it to, apparently from my domain, not web.me.com. The problem is, as soon as the DNS propogated, MM delivers my MM site OK, but iWeb can't find the files for it anymore. All my pages immediately went red (unpublished) when I tried to update the site, and any attempt to Publish gives me this error "iWeb couldn’t connect to MobileMe. Make sure your Internet connection works and try again." I'm cable connected to an ADSL router, and Airport connected to a cable router, and neither service has dropped out. I've rebooted, and retried, and the website is up under my own domain, so GoDaddy and MM both got it right. What did I do wrong? Thanks, someone... anyone?

    This is now sort of resolved, but not very satisfactorily. One of the trainers at my local Appple Store found an old support issue in the archives going back to 2008, which blamed security settings for update problems. Coincidental with associating MobileMe with my personal domain, I had checked the privacy box and added an ID and PW to the site. That was the problem, not the personal domain, that was preventing iWeb from finding my MM account. Uncheck that box and my site happily updates. Of course, now I have a site that I cannot make private. In this case, not a show-stopper, but disappointing. I have reported it as a bug in the latest version of iWeb. Thanks for your help.

  • How do I use my own domain name  with Mac server with iWeb

    For a number of years I have had my own domain name that when typed into a browser it would redirect the browser to my site on the .Mac server. I hear with iLife ’08 I can have my own domain name hosted by .Mac so I know longer have to have the long addresses for each pages the I have now for my site (i.e. the http://web.mac.com/thewildhearts/WildheartPhotography/NatureGalleries.html). How do I go about getting my domain name (wildheartphotography.com) so that Mac will host it and do I need to notify the current host that Mac will be hosting my site now?
    Thanks. I really appreciate the help I get from this forum.
    Pat

    It's very easy, really. You go to your domain control and redirect the address. IPower, for example points the domain name very easily: you just type in the URL of your site and it will point to your mac server.
    I've used GoDaddy before and it is a bit more difficult to "point".

  • Can't seem to get my own domain name to work

    First of all I'm sure this has been asked a lot so apologies if it's a repetitive post I'm just at the hair pulling stage!
    Well. I've had no issues joining mobile me (joined a week ago) and publishing my site from iWeb.
    But then I wanted to get my own domain name.
    (i got it from 123-reg.co.uk just in case that is is anyway significant.)
    This is where my question becomes a bit "Balloon" shaped.
    When setting my CName on 123-reg I was asked to enter info into two boxes. (That seemed to tally with the help files I have read.)
    I entered web.me.com into the first box and my domain name into the second. I'll just call it for now www.mywebsite.co.uk
    Then it asked me to enter my website IP which I located by using one of those pages you can type a domain into and it searches...
    Sorry if this is dumb but does that sound about right?
    Some questions-
    -Is it correct to put www.mywebsite.co.uk as well as web.me.com or should it be something else?
    -Would there be any mobile-me issues while I'm still on the free trial?
    -Are some domain name providers incompatible with mobile-me?
    -And if I change the CName with the registrar should I delete and reconfigure myown domain in my mobile me-account?
    If anyone could enlighten me they would basically be my new hero!
    Thanks.

    Oh one more thing..
    When asked for the IP of your website does that mean the IP of your own website or the host (being Mobileme of course? i.e. the IP of www.web.me.com/mywebsitetemporaryname or me.com?

  • How to publish custom web site with own domain name?

    Hey out there. I wonder if anyone can give me any tips on how to publish a web site with my own domain name.
    I have a web site I'm building and I want to purchase a domain name and then publish the site using that domain name.
    I know how to buy a domain name. I have a .mac account so I'm hoping that .mac can host the site. What I don't quite understand how to do is get .mac to host the site using that domain name. I looked through Apple Support but couldn't find what I was looking for. Just wondering if anyone has been in this situation. Thanks in advance.

    Dave ~ Welcome to the discussions. .Mac was re-branded as MobileMe last July. If you're not building your site with iWeb, it's considered to be a "custom" website. These Apple docs may help:
    MobileMe: How to publish a custom website
    iWeb ’08: Using your own domain name
    ...Use this search page to find such documents:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=search
    Note that you don't need to have iLife '08 to be able to direct your domain name to your custom website published to MobileMe. As someone wrote on another thread:
    "My personal domain is linked to my MM but i don't even have ilife on my mac. When you go to the options in MM to link your personal domain to your MM it provides directions that will guide you with setting up your godaddy settings."
    ...Where "MM" is MobileMe here:
    http://me.com/account
    ...+Personal Domain+ tab, and "godaddy" is wherever your domain name is registered.

  • Using your own Domain Name

    This is what I have as my url now...
    http://web.me.com/seanfahey/Black_JackPress/Welcome.html
    I'm trying to put in my own domain name that I purchased from GoDaddy.com. Please help!
    Much appreciated.

    You need to enter your domain name into your MobileMe account first - log in under System Preferences and then go to the Personal Domain name settings and enter your domain name in here.
    Then go to the DNS settings at GoDaddy and set up a new CNAME with your alias as your domain name - 'www' that is then forwarded to web.me.com which is your host.

  • Using own domain name , duplication of web address HELP !!

    Hi all,
    Although this is not a big problem it is quite annoying. I am currently building website within Iweb 09. I have managed to set up my own domain name with no problems at all. The only thing is I get a duplication of my website name on the browser here it is :
    *http://www.topviewweddings.co.uk/topviewweddings/Home.html*
    I would ideally like to just have *http://www.topviewweddings.co.uk*
    Anyone have any ideas on how to do this ??
    cheers
    T

    One way would be to use standard domain name forwarding (not CNAME) and enable masking. That would put http://www.topviewweddings.co.uk in the URL window of ALL your pages. The downside to that is visitors can only bookmark your first page which may or may not be a problem. My tutorial site, http://toadstutorials.info , is set up that way.

  • Creating own domain name

    I am really new to apple and iweb, so please bare with me! Anyone know how I can create my own domain name?
    Thanks!
    CATRYEM

    There are lots of companies that will sell you the rights to your own domain name. One of the most popular places is www.godaddy.com. Once you get your domain name, you can set something called "Domain forwarding" so that people who type in your domain name will get forwarded to your .Mac or iWeb address.
    If you find that this reply was helpful or even answered your question, please mark my reply as either "helpful" or "solved". Thanks.

  • HELP: is it possible to have my own domain name forward to a .mac/iwebblog?

    Just got a macbook pro last week. brand new to this/have no idea what i'm doing. want to get my own domain name. is it possible to buy a domain name ie
    'Testing123.Com' and have it so that when i publish my blog on my .mac/iweb account, the domain name forwards/links to the .mac blog?
    in other words, the .mac/iweb blog address is too long/convoluted...i want something catchier. so is it possible? please advise...would be eternally grateful. thanks so much,
    Emily

    Emily:
    Yes, you can purchase a domain name and have it forwarded to your iWeb produced site. You'll need to buy the name first. GoDaddy.com seems to be a very popular site to purchase domain names.

  • MORE THAN ONE DOMAIN NAME WITHIN MY MOBILEME ACCOUNT ?

    I own more than one domain name. Can Mobileme host more than one of them and keep them separate for viewers so that somebody logging in to website 1 does not also get the files etc for website 2 ?

    mrs green wrote:

    Welcome to the discussions, Mrs Green. MobileMe doesn't host domain names +per se+ — MobileMe accepts a re-direction of a domain name to its servers. MobileMe will accept only one domain name re-directed via CNAME, but can accept more re-directed domain names via "WebForwarding".
    ...and keep them separate for viewers so that somebody logging in to website 1 does not also get the files etc for website 2 ?

    Why?
    Probably because you want that and configured your domainname accordingly.

  • Error message unable to qualify my own domain name

    Hello
    I have two systems at a remote location. The user reports they see the following error message sometime after the login screen is displayed.
    "Unable to qualify my own domain name(prec7b12)--using short name"
    Unfortunately we lost our admin so I am trying to fill in and my Solaris experience is more advanced user than admin. If you could point me in the right direction on this I would appreciate it.
    Best Regards
    Robert

    Put the domain name in the /etc/defaultdomain and add the fully qualified domain name as an alias in the /etc/hosts file
    ex.
    /etc/hosts
    1.1.1.1 <hostname> <hostname.domain_name.com>
    also add the domain to the first line of the /etc/resolv.conf file.
    ex.
    /etc/resolv.conf
    domain <domain_name.com>
    [nameserver <IP of DNS Servers>]
    [] means it is optional
    The above is the correct way to set it up. Now the quick and dirty ways to fix the problem.
    Option 1. Ignore it, it is only need if you are doing internet e-mail from the local box.
    Option 2. Put the full qualified domain name in the /etc/hostname.hme0 file. Depending on your computer the hme0 may be different.
    Option 3. edit the file /etc/mail/sendmail.cf.
    Search for Dj just above it you should see the following.
    # my official domain name
    # ... define this only if sendmail cannot automatically determine your domain
    #Dj$w.Foo.COM
    Add the following line below it.
    Dj<hostname.domain_name.com>
    I have found that the $w does not always give you the desired results so just use you fully qualified domain name.

  • Using my own domain name

    I'm thinking of changing my broadband to BT infinity.
    This a warning I'm consistently getting from others...
    "If you're looking to move to BT I'd strongly recommend you get e-mailed confirmation that the service they provide will allow you to send e-mail out from your own domain name, as many of the consumer BT packages don't allow this, forcing you to use a BT based address. Clearly not suitable considering you have your own domain etc."
    Can anyone confirm that using another providers SMTP is permitted, and will work?

    Hi. Welcome to the forums.
    Not sure where you got that warning from, as in general it's not true.
    The only thing that is true, is that ISPs typically prevent access to their smtp servers when not connected to the ISP, and if using a non ISP email address - that needs extra steps to be able to send using the ISP smarthosts (e.g. mail.btinternet.com).
    "Home ISPs" are different to specialist domain sellers.
    I use BTinternet and my own smtp server name for my domain without any issues.
    It actually depends how your domain name has been set up and whether it's just a name, and not specifically using any associated smtp server.
    In this case, you need to go through something called address verification (with BTinternet) and associate a domain email address with the BTinternet email address (e.g. see my shortcuts - link below - option 0e).
    You typically can't use mail.yourdomain etc as the smtp server, unless that's been specified as part of your domain package - usually at extra cost as you would be using the domain seller's servers.
