IWeb, Paypal and GoDaddy problem

Anyone know the answer to this one. I have built a website for selling products. I used paypals site to generate "Buy Now" buttons for various items and pasted them into a HTML snippet in widgets. I uploaded the site using Cyberduck onto Godaddy (host). On iWeb, the paypal buttons look correct but on the web they are a window to GoDaddy Market Place. I have cleared the cache and no difference, I have also used Firefox and still the same so I guess it is not just what I am seeing but what is really up there. Any ideas, guys? I am new to all this so apologise if this is something really stupid!

Hi Leo
The snippet code is:
<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="hostedbuttonid" value="6223461">
<input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/enGB/i/btn/btn_buynowCCLG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online.">
</form>
and it is the same on all web pages that I have pasted it to. A typical page is:

  • Intel imac G5, Safari and Godaddy problems

    I have an intel imac G5 with OS 10.4.5 with Safari 2.0.3 and can not access my GoDaddy hosted website directly or with forwarding (on or off)...
    I can however access the GoDaddy hosted website with my imac G5 (non-intel) with the same version Mac OS and Safari and with a Windows computer.
    I can only assume this is a problem with my intel imac?
    Another weird problem...my site is still on an SBC webhosting.com hosting server and I can only access the SBC hosted site with Safari not the Godaddy site. SBC has not cancelled the account and has not taken the old site down as of yet.
    I have tried clearing the cache, Firefox, and pinging the godaddy site ip address.
    Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

    very strange...right after I posted, I received an intel mac security upgrade...installed it and the problem was fixed...wow...
    sorry for the post...

  • Iweb, mobileme, and godaddy HELP!

    I purchased a domain from godaddy.com, designed the website on iweb '09, and have chosen to host the site through mobileme.
    After an initial CNAME error on my part, I have been assured by godaddy reps that everything is correct on their end. I have set up the personal domain on my mobileme account, and have published the site from iweb '09 to mobileme. I have waited for the site to propogate onto godaddy servers, and the website is not pulling up. I get an error message that states that the website is temporarily unavailable. I tried republishing through iweb, and nothing seems to help.
    My mobileme account is not set to private, and all of the mobileme information is showing correctly.
    What do I do to fix this--fast?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for your help. I spent 4 hours yesterday at my local apple store to see if anyone had additional ideas, and finally a representative deleted the site from my iweb and had me create a new user on my mac. I set up the site through iweb under the new user, but we were still having issues, so we went into godaddy and changed the url forwarding and then masked the site. It was the only solution that worked, and I am thrilled that the site is up and working. I had followed all of the godaddy instructions on the site, and so did the apple reps, (we were troubleshooting mobileme, iweb and godaddy simultaneously) but nothing provided by the godaddy site or godaddy representatives worked. It was just a long process of trial by error that eventually brought us to a solution.
    Thank you, everyone for your suggestions, and please know that I tried each one--multiple times. I truly appreciate the help.

  • IWeb 09 and Facebook problem

    Hello.
    The updated notification in Facebook don't work correctly. Instead to redirect to www.gianguidozurliphotography.com, it go to www.gianguidozurliphotography.com/GianGuidoZurli.
    The name after the / is the iWeb name of the website, but isn't a page in my site.
    I tried to remove it from iWeb, but is impossible. Any idea?

    I have noticed that since I am now using iWeb 09's ftp transfer function when I my site is published it has the file name of the site along with the website domain... for example:
    Correct:
    http://www.onceuponatimehairdesign.com
    Incorrect:
    http://www.onceuponatimehairdesign.com/OnceUpon_A_Time_HairDesign/Welcome.html
    It still goes to the correct site... I just don't know why it needs to have the title of my site after the domain. I was using another FTP client before iWeb 09 and didn't have that issue... Even though it does add the title I truly enjoy not having to save to a folder then transfer the files via the ftp transmit application.

  • IWeb 09 and Godaddy Search Engine Visibility

    Has anyone used GoDaddy's Search Engine visibility tool with an iWeb 09 site hosted through MobileMe? I love the simplicity of iWeb but would love to add keywords and optimize my site for web searches. Any advice?
    cheers!

    Hey,
    This is a great programme.. it allows you to add page titles, meta tags & descriptions really easily for iweb.
    Good luck!

  • IWeb username and password problem

    I've published a few sites now using iWeb, and just ran into this problem for the first time. The site I'm working on when published now asks for my apple username and password (my apple email address and apple password, for itunes etc etc) instead of the username and password I enter in iweb for password protecting the site. It says something like 'the username and password for your mobile me domain is incorrect. and when I put in my email address and apple password, it works. All my other sites that I set individual usernames and passwords for are working fine.
    Anyone know why it would be doing this? I did copy the pages from another site. could that be part of the problem?

    Have you found a good solution to your problem yet? I had an issue like you describe, where I thought I had to enter my MobileMe user/pass when prompted when browsing.
    The issue with passwords that I saw was when creating more than one site within a single domain.sites file. I have one public site without a password, and then the other several sites in this file do have passwords, and each of them has a different password. With this multi-site and multi-password configuration, I was confused why the passwords seemed to NOT be working.
    The result seems to be that the LAST site published is the user/pass used for ALL of the password protected sites. So right now, after editing a page in one of my private sites, I publish that site, and then I ALSO re-publish the site with the password that I want. This way at least I know the password being used. But it's a single password used for ALL the private sites.

  • OSX Mail Problems and Godaddy Problems

    Hello,
    I have tried to resolve this problem with help from Godaddy and from the local Apple store technician who came out to look at my settings etc. Tried using different ports, that didn't help. These various errors happen several times a day.
    1. I'm getting this error: There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account “[my account name]” or try again. The server error encountered was: The connection to the server “pop.secureserver.net” on port 110 timed out.
    2. Even though password is entered in my email account preferences, sometimes I get this error: Please enter the password for user “[my email address]” on SMTP server “smtpout.secureserver.net”
    3. Another error: unable to access outgoing mail server.
    4. Sometimes it shows an exclamation point next to the inbox on the upper left. What does this symbol mean?
    5. Sometimes it shows a lightning bolt. What do these symbols mean?
    Please let me know if you have any thoughts on these items. Thanks in advance!

    I am having the exact same problem. GoDaddy says I have everything right but I can't send e-mail.

  • PayPal and Firefox Problem

    Hi, I am using the newest OS and whenevr I try and log into my Pay Pal account, it just seems to take forever, sometimes it will eventually log in where as other times it will "time Out"
    I've tried it on Safari as well but it also seems to take ages.
    Is this an ISP issue, PayPal issue, Firefox issue or just a normal behaviour?
    I have cleaned out cookies etc.
    Thanks
    Oh just for the record, I have a Windows seperate machine that connects on the same wireless router and that doesn't seem to take quite so long logging in.

    the newest OS
    Then I can assume 10.5.6 vs what is listed below (10.5.3).
    I'd try looking at your modem's status and connection to ISP; primary and secondary IP for DNS; check that your modem and any router is also current and up to date (might check DSLreports too).
    The Mac Pro's Intel chipset does seem to have high latency and was addressed last fall by Intel, but whether that makes its way into OS X I have no idea or way of knowing.
    There is the Safari discussion, and OS X Leopard "Getting online and networking" discussion.
    One popular test is to create a new test user account.

  • *HELP*  Paypal and iTunes problems!  Billing agreement does not work!

    Hello
    I hope someone here can help me as this is driving me insane
    I want to use PP for iTunes and have set up numerous billing agreements through PP, but iTunes does not seem to recognize them. I go through the whole thing of signing into my account repeatedly and it will send me to PP where I over and over set up the agreement, but when it is supposed to send me back to iTunes it just sends me to a page on PP where it states that my session has timed out.
    I chatted live with someone from iTunes yesterday who suggested as I use Mozilla firefox that I should use IE instead when doing this. SO I took everything off and started over again and nada/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png

  • Iweb publishing and udate problems

    I can't get my iweb sites to publish at .mac, and I can't get iweb to check for updates.
    I can upload to my idisk, I can get other Apple updates, all other web connections are working fine. I can publish the web site to a folder, including one on my idisk. I did publish a test (garbage) iweb site about a month ago, when I first got this machine, and the only way I was able to get rid of it was deleting the files from the idisk. Which I only did after trying to publish the most recent updates.
    The error mesages I get are:
    "The update server could not be contacted. Check your Internet connection or try again later." (when I try and update iweb)
    "There was an error determining the .Mac publish configuration values. Please try again in a few minutes." (when I try and publish) I have tried the button and both publish choices on the file menu.

    Use the second option shown on this page to publish to a local folder...
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/Publish-Website.html
    The double click the index.html file to launch your site in the browser.
    Make any changes in iWeb and republish.
    iWeb stores the website data in a Domain.sites2 file. See this page...

  • A fix to personal web domain name problem between iWeb and GoDaddy

    There are numerous posts about problems with iWeb understanding both your personal name domain with and without the www.prefix. After five days, 25 calls to both Apple and GoDaddy where I was getting much conflicting advice even within each organization, and I experienced many problems such as the site not being found and iWeb asking for password authorization whenever anyone visited the site. The good news is that I was finally able to resolve the problem with these simple steps:
    First, check that your Web site actually exists by going to http://web.mac.com/yourusername
    If that works then you need to set up a forward in GoDaddy.
    In GoDaddy's account manager, make sure that the forwarding address is set to http://web.mac.com/yourusername. This must be the same address that you just checked through your browser. (I also advise you to NOT USE the .ME designation that Apple is moving to. It's not solid yet. .MAC will work for a long time. It's web.mac.com/ that will work).
    Then click on the Total DNS Control and MX Records link.
    This is where my instructions that work differ from many other instructions, but heed my advice and you'll save a lot of time.
    Look in the CNAMES area and make sure that the www host alias points to "@" and not to anything else such as "web.me.com" or "www.mac.com". If you don't have such an entry, then create one by clicking on the "add a new CNAME Record"button. Caution - if you don't use the "@" (at sign) here you WILL run into trouble where your custom domain name will only work WITHOUT a "www." prefix. (While this may not be a problem for your mac friends, most everyone using a PC will think they need to type in a "WWW." and that will cause a problem).
    Then if you wish, you can also go back into your domain forwarding area and click on the masking tab and click to enable masking. This will make your url only show the short personal domain name rather than the very long iWeb mobile me URL appended with your personal domain name.
    Confirm your entry, and then wait anywhere from 20 minutes to four hours or more for the tens of thousands of servers around the world to repopulate those instructions. I was able to see a change take place in minutes where my associate in another state didn't see the change for two hours. Don't worry, just wait.
    If you do this, you should be able to then go to your Web site through either www.YourPersonalDomainName.com or YourPersonalDomainName.com
    Good luck!

    I was finally able to resolve the problem with these simple steps:
    Many people would not be interested in using url forwarding/masking as you suggest to solve this issue, since that makes it impossible to bookmark individual pages of your site. For those who do wish to set the www CNAME to web.mac.com, I think the problem can normally be solved by also setting the @ A Record to 17.250.248.34.

  • Suggest alternatives to IWeb and GoDaddy?

    Hello - As we are all aware there are limits to IWeb and GoDaddy. I'm a Macer in a PC world (this is changing but slowly). My PC pals have a difficult time viewing my website/blog and I want to upgrade my site so my pictures can load and fonts translate to PC. I do not sell anything it's just a site for friends and family but I would like to upgrade the look, enhance the capability with PC and Google and am willing to spend a bit of cash. I've heard of Dreamscape? Does anyone have other suggestions? I do the complete ease of use of IWeb despite some of the drawbacks. Thank you. Tami
    www.curioustidbits.com is my blog.

    Hi Tamis,
    You have asked several questions in your post. I will try to answer each one. I can see from your website that you like the free form style possible with iWeb. I have to caution you that achieving maximum compatibility with all browsers, especially Internet Explorer comes with a price.
    There are a limited number of fonts that are considered web safe. A quick search in wiki will give you the list. Using any other fonts will risk problems with certain browsers. If you want to use a special font in a limited way, for example a title, convert it to an image first then place it into iWeb. The price you will pay if you over use this method is a much slower download time for your pages.
    iWeb uses a number of features such as shadows and reflections that can cause problems with certain bowsers. I have found that it is best to prep your images to the display size needed and save them as jpegs. The results are quite predictable with this approach.
    Choosing an alternative to iWeb will require a change in your approach to web design, a trade off you may not be willing to make. To get a feel for an alternative check out Rapid Weaver. I have used both and they each have their pros and cons. Rapid Weaver will force you into a template design. If you decide on Rapid Weaver there are two plugins that add some of the simplicity of iWeb, Stacks & Blocks. You probably will only need one of these.
    Here is a website created with Rapid Weaver, www.quilts4u.com
    Good luck with your website

  • IWeb and godaddy and MobileMe

    I'm not sure how to reconcile this b/c web design is completely new to me.
    I just purchased a domain name on godaddy.com, and need to find a host.
    I understand that godaddy.com has a hosting option, but it doesn't appear that it is friendly to Mac users -- can you even use their web design program if you have a Mac?
    I have iWeb 08, and would like to use it to design my new site, and I do not have a MobileMe account.
    Do I need to get a MobileMe account and use that as the host in order to create a website in iWeb, and then point godaddy to the MobileMe account as the host? Or is it possible to use godaddy as the host and design the site in iWeb?
    Thanks!

    I understand that godaddy.com has a hosting option, but it doesn't appear that it is friendly to Mac users -- can you even use their web design program if you have a Mac?
    Countless Mac users have sites hosted at Godaddy, no problem. The do not use Godaddy's web design program, they use iWeb or some other Mac app.
    Or is it possible to use godaddy as the host and design the site in iWeb?
    Yes.

  • IWeb 09 and Go Daddy...Help Needed Please!

    I have read many of the posts on this question and still don't know the answer:
    Is it possible to use iWeb 09 and use the built-in FTP to upload directly to my Go Daddy site?
    I've tried and keep getting a "Testing failed. The directory/path couldn't be found."
    So, my question is, can someone who has successfully uploaded from iWeb 09 to Go Daddy please tell me what to enter in the FTP Server Settings of iWeb? I would like to know the following:
    SERVER ADDRESS (do you just use your site name, such as www.mysitehere.net or ??)
    DIRECTORY PATH (some folks say "http://" but this doesn't work for me)
    Also, do we just use PROTOCOL "FTP" or another?
    I am very appreciative of any help here! I basically bought iLife 09 so I could update my site directly from iWeb. In the past I used Fetch, which worked but is a bit of a rigamarole. So, if we can do it directly with iWeb 09 it would be great.
    Thanks for any help here! I'm very grateful!

    I just did this last night for the first time. Watch the FTP loading tutorial for iweb, it helped.
    Publish to FTP
    Put your site name in (what ever you want to put down)
    Server address is your domainname.com (no www)
    User name
    password
    no directory/path
    FTP
    Put your full website URL www.yourdomainname.com
    This will get it onto your go daddy site. It will put all of the files in a folder called whatever you called your site name above. Your website will look funny but that is iWeb FTP for you. It will look like www.yourdomainname.com/www.yourdomainname.com/home.html
    To fix that (I was told last night by go daddy) that I needed to log into godaddy and go to hosting on the left menue. then to manage account highlighted next to your domain name you want to manage. Then go into the folder with the site name you put in iweb and move everything in that folder to the root directory. Copy over anything in the root directory. When I did that the duplication of domain names went away and you are left with www.yourdomainname.com/home.html
    If you have problems call godaddy. They can walk you through it. Only do that after you tested successfully.
