IWeb Saving problems

I really hope that this makes sense. Using iWeb '06.
Two problems here: I moved my iWeb files around to consolidate and discard duplicate files between my Mac's HD, duplicate files on the desktop and an external drive. I just did an update to my site and to my horror, it "couldn't save media files" - and showed a long list of files. I went and found them from the new location on my HD and re-dropped the movie and picture files in. Then, when I tried to save, it listed three new but non-specific files ("movie" "dropped pict image"). I checked the pages and all pictures are visible. Then when I tried to save again, almost the entire previous list of "Missing" files (most of which were visible anyway) came up again as being unable to be saved.
Then, when saving, it didn't know where iWeb was...
"The location of the document iWeb cannot be determined. You can specify where to save it."
So it called itself "Domain" and it saved itself to the Desktop. Then it told me that it would be replaced...fine. The thing is, it has never done this before. I looked in the Library folder/Application support/iWeb, and there is a Domain file in there too, and it opens the same iWeb as the one on the desktop.
I have no idea why this is happening. Something has gone screwy - obviously it did not like having its files moved around, but I have replaced those files from the same ones in the new location.
I have not tried to publish my site (assuming that I even can) as it's after 3 AM and i have been trying to fix this for hours. My website looks fine - I shudder to think of how it will look after publishing, but I want to make sure that everything is where it should be before publishing.
Thanks for any advice. I thought I'd check here before calling Apple as they keep telling me to check the website anyway!

The sites extension doesn't always show, if you hilight the domain file and go to finder get info then it should say what the extension is. The domain file is where iweb saves all the files so as long as you have that you should be OK. It isn't a good idea to move or re-move files unless you know what they do.

Mail attachment saving problem

Hi,
When I tried to save a Mail attachment today I got the following warning:
Mail was unable to save the attachment “File.numbers” to disk. Please verify your downloads folder exists and is writable.
The warning must be wrong because other attachments, even of the same kind, can be saved without problems. I observed that only such files are effected which contain subdirectories like numbers, keynote, etc. and my suspicion is, that the saving problems may come from wrong file reading/writing rights within these subdirectories, that the sender of the Mail may have imposed to prevent unwanted changes to his/her file. May this be so? Otherwise, what else?
(MacOs X 10.5.6, Mail.app 3.5 and, in this particular case, Numbers08)
Thanks for for help in advace!
Joe.

Hi Kappy,
Nothing at all. No error message but no copying either, and no change in the curser appearance when dragging to the Desktop.
When I go to Mail --> Message --> Forward as Attachment, the attachment in the composer window can be saved like a normal file and has an appropriate size, eg. the desired original file seems to be contained in there. However, I have no Idea how to extract the original .numbers file from that.
Strange, isn't it?
Thanks,
Joe.

Microsoft word notebook layout Saving Problems

Hi
I'm having problems with my microsoft word where in notebook layout it won't allow me to save when the ending is docx, which is the usual saving ending. It allows me to save publisher and normal blank word documents, however not the notebook layout. I'm using Snow Leopard and word 2011, have done the updates, and it's the update version of 14.2.3. When i took it to Apple they couldn't help me besides telling me that maybe i have a corrupted file on my laptop and that i should make a new user and transfer my files over. However, if there is a corrupted file then it would just go onto the new user and it also doesn't allow me to prevent it, if the saving problems happen again.
Has anyone seen this or does anyone know how to fix this problem? Could it be a virus or a corrupted file? And if it's a corrupted file how do i find it to delete it?
Thanks if anyone could help.

Photoshop CS4 file saving problem...

Photoshop CS4 file saving problem: When no file name is specified, Photoshop saves file to the root directory of the drive instead of the current folder. It auto names the image with the name of the folder that was active. Can this be fixed?
BTW: I was using "save for web"--not sure if it that matters.

Bug reports should go in the main forum.
And yes, SFW has it's own file code so that is a very important detail.

Illustrator saving problems

Hello everybody,
In the last months I got more and more saving problems in Illustrator. I used CS5 and CS6 and now I switched to CreativeCloud where I have the same problems.
I deleted my system two times and built it up completely new - but the mistake remains. Even with an update to MacOSX10.8 and CreativeCloud didn't solve the problem.
When I try to save an Illustrator document the program sometimes starts to get inactive (I can't do anything more), so that I just can crash it. The file is saved, but when I open Illustrator again it is often unable to open any document without freezing again. After a complete reboot Im able to open Illustrator again proberly.

Hard drive is a 128GB SSD drive.
I hope someone can help me
Michael

depends on my work - sometimes 30gb down to 5gb - mostly its about 20gb. When I finished my work I save it to our server.
The bug appears at any status of free hard drive space.
What I didn't mention is that the computer sometimes can not shut down after that illustrator issue. The screen becomes grey like on a normal shutdown but it won't ever end. Finally I have to crash the system completely.
What I wonder about is that neither a program update nor a system update could fix it. Is it possible illustrator doesn't like my hardware - the SSD maybe?

IWeb Leopard problems

does anyone know how to fix this?
I installed Leopard today then opened up my iWeb and a very old website appreared dont know where that came from. It is not the one i publish to .mac site nor was it the site i was working on just before i updated to Leopard. I have however saved my website folder to a file but cannot work out how to import it to iWeb
Any ideas?

Alright, so I've published my site to a folder - in my Media folder, which contains my mo3 podcasts and quicktime movie files, there are -'s in between words when the original files contain none. This isn't a Filezilla or any other 3rd FTP program problem, it seems to be coming from iWeb.
Funny thing is, it's not affecting every one of the podcast or QT movies pages. When I click on a podcast the link that is provided has added the ( " ) code %22 in place of ( " ) from the title of the podcast. I use quotes on other pages the exact same way and when you clock on that page, it works fine. I feel like I may just have to rebuild the pages again, and that - I'm not looking forward too. It feels like an iWeb bugout to me.

Iweb/itunes problem - host parameter is null

i use iweb to publish and host our website. everything works fine, except... i have never been able to successfully publish a podcast to itunes through iweb. the error message in itunes is that the host parameter is null. i'm really scratching my head on this, because why would iweb offer an application that does not sync up with itunes automatically? please help!

The feed appears to be OK: it references a media file:
http://www.undergroundfellowship.info/undergroundfellowship/Media/uftv.intro.m4v
However making this URL into a link in an html page and then downloading from the the link produces not the m4v file but an html file called uftv.intro.m4v.html which references the media file:

AA 2.1 file saving problem

I have AA 2.1 on Vista Home ( 32bit). I have used this for 2 years, no problems (besides my computer just being naturally slow), but all of a sudden I'm have issues saving my mixdowns and sessions. I open up the "Save As.." dialog box, and go to type in the name of the file, and when I press the first key, AA shuts down completely. Does it for saving both sessions and mixdowns. I have rebooted the program and my computer mutiple times, changed my save settings, checked all my temps, and everything else I could think of.
I called some colleagues who ahve run AA for years, and they've never heard of this happening. Lots of fast help is greatly appreciated, as I am in the middle of a project and have a big deadline coming up (like...tomorrow afternoon ha ha).
Thanks!!

This sound suspiciously like an issue caused by an application called SPRTCMD by Support Soft. This software is typically installed by ISPs, Computer manufacturers, and other organizations and enables them to perform remote debugging or sessions among other things. Vista SP1 resolved this for all the cases we encountered, but you may want to verify if the service is installed and disable it if you don't want or need it.
1. Click the Start button (or whatever we're calling it in Vista) and type msconfig
2. In the Startup tab, locate and uncheck (disable) the "SupportSoft sprtcmd" item.
3. In the Services tab, locate and uncheck (disable) the SupportSoft Sprocket Service" item.
If you don't see either of these items, you may want to do a system search for SupportSoft and see if you find it somewhere.

Query saving problem

hi, I encountered a problem while query saving.
After I did some changes of a query and pressed the "Save" button, the process was locked there with the message " the Query is saving..."
The process wouldn' t stop running untiil time out,but the query can't be saved. Furthermore,all the queries and calculated keyfigures from that InfoProvider can't be saved no matter if they are changed or not.
If I run RSRT of that query,the process is locked there, too. I wonder what's the problem...
Please give me some help, thank you

Locks exist in SM12,
after i remove those locks and try again to save the query, they appear again in SM12.
All the queries cannot be saved from that particular Multiprovider, others are OK.
Any solutions? Thanks
Regards,
Jessie

Iweb formating problem with photo album

Hi,
Im quite new to iweb but was developing a simple website to advertise a friends photography business.
I've made three pages, one of which is photo gallery using iweb's photo album page structure which seems to work fine apart from one problem.
I adapted one of the themes to have a simple gradient colour fill for the page background and a single colour for the browser background. The problem occurs when i want to view a larger image of the one of the photos - the colour gradient does not extent upwards into the header area and down into the footer area.
Please see http://www.swanmoreweddingcars.com/test/MartinKingPhotography.co.uk/Gallery/Page s/Album_Two.html and click on a photo to enlarge. This problem does not appear when in iweb, only after I've published it to a folder.
If any one has any suggestions about what is going wrong please let me know, as i think i've tried everything.
Many thanks

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, I've tried playing around with all of those settings but with no luck. It appears exactly how i want it to look in iWeb but as soon as i publish it to a folder to upload it to my web server the problem arises.

IWeb link problems

Hello and thank you to anyone who is taking the time to read this and attempts to help me correct my problem.
Recently, my dad enlisted me to assist him in creating a website for his company. With iWeb, I was able to make a decent rough draft and then began expanding on it. In the original draft (I had about five different pages, and used the navigation link that iweb uses to travel from page to page) everything worked fine. However, when I began expanding upon the site and adding my own links (pictures that you could click upon to travel to other pages and larger images) some of them work, while others don't. I have tried replacing the pictures and redoing the links, but only one thing has somewhat worked.
I put the setting so the layout would be shown, and then some gray lines appeared (don't know what else to call them) and it seemed if I placed my pictures inside these lines, then the links would suddenly work.
However, in some cases the pictures are in these lines and yet some still do not work. If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated.
The link to the website is
www.rcqc.com
An example of the "line" phenomena is on the Custom Carpentry page, found by clicking these links: "Photo Gallery" then "Custom Carpentry"
On this page, the top picture do not seem to work, yet the bottom four do--the bottom six are within the "gray lines."

your first three image is inside nav_layer, you need to move them out of nav_layer.
simple thing to do is to start the page over, leave nav bar enabled and enable view layout; these let you see where everything is.

IWeb basic problems? Issue with galleries

Hi,
A while ago I posted a question about a photo gallery I was trying to display, which went something like:
"Hello,
Just finished putting together a website for my brother but having issues with the gallery. I have a portfolio page for his photos. When I'm in iweb the photo album covers scroll nicely between images and link straight to the photo gallery page. But when I put it online I click and nothing happens, as you can see here:
http://www.guycollier.com/guycollier/EdmundCollier_Theatre_Photography_My_Portfolio/Edmund_Collier_Theatre_Photography_MyPortfolio.html
Does anyone know why? This is driving me crazy. I have deleated and uploaded the sight several times from iWeb and also Filezilla and Cyberduck but have the same issues. Please help!
ps. also if anyone knows how to set the title of the page in the browser then that would be great too!"
I have finally got the time to get back to it and have been trying various options suggested by users, including deleating and rebuilding the gallery, but it still doesn't work either online or on a local hosting. It was suggested that I might have some basic iWeb problems. Any idea what these maybe and how they might be resolved?
Thanks
Guy

Thanks for the suggestion. I rebuilt it and without making any changes to the layout it seemed to work ok. However, when I have made some minor changes (putting a frame around the images, changing the layout slightly, removing the navigation menus) it no longer works. Any idea? Might I be deleting something by accident?

Multipul iweb sites problem with own domain name

hello all
i have currently 2 iweb sites (my own personal one with my own personal domain) and another site which has a podcast for my self and flat mates
the problem comes in this.
if i want to subscribe the podcast to itunes it trys to send it as www.garethmob.co.uk/flat6_band ect where the actuall band website does not sit on my own personal website
is there any way i can fix this by having the origional web.me.com/garethmob ect for one of the websites and the garethmob.co.uk for the other?
both are on my mobile me account
thanks for any help in advance
Gareth

If you have more than on site on your iDisk and go to Finder/Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites, you will see that you have two website folders but only one index.html file.
If the domain name www.garethmob.co.uk (Site 1) is directed at that index.html file then that's the one that must exist in the Web/Sites folder.
When you upload another site (Site 2), its index.html file overwrites the existing one and the URL is then directed to the wrong site.
When you upload changes to the site with the MobileMe URL (Site 2), you must then upload a copy of the index.html file for the other site (Site 1) after doing this.
You can do this by publishing your Site 1 to a local folder and then put the index.html file inside a folder and trash the rest.
After you have uploaded changes to Site 2, go to Finder/Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites and upload a copy of the index.html file for Site 1 by drag and drop.

LabVIEW 2011, and Excel 2010: saving problems

Hello to all! I am a student of Mechanical Engineeringfthat very little has been using this software. I present the problem: for a matter which is called Biomechanics, I and my colleagues, we have developed the design of a rheometer, which is controlled by LabVIEW2011. Since we are still at the experimental stage, always has been simulated using labview: the whole experience. So, labview, at present, not only controls the stepper motor through the frequency sets, but also simulates the output (in the specific, the response to the torsion of the cartilage, simulated with a low pass filter of the second order). All this was done by my colleague more experienced than me, who today passed me the finished project that in his pc works perfectly while not in mine (we have the same version of labview, but different version of office). In practice, the program is fine (there is no arrow "Run" broken) and the simulation with the creation of the sine graph (response of the cartilage) is done perfectly. My colleague then set labview in order to save the data to an excel sheet at the end of the simulation, asking the user where to put it (the excel file must already exist, labview does not create it). The excel file should contain two columns and a scatter plot (one column represents the frequency, f, of the stepper motor, the second represent the shear modulus G, which increases as the frequency increases and the graph represent the trend of G in function of f). As soon as I decide to save the data, excel opens, for an instant appear the scatter plot and data in columns but immediately after the graph disappears and remain only the columns with data (so I have to make the graph "manually") and labview gives me the following error:
Error -2147023170 occurred at Property Node (arg 2) in NI_ReportGenerationToolkit.lvlib:Excel_Insert_Char
t.vi->NI_Excel.lvclass:Excel Insert Graph.vi->NI_ReportGenerationToolkit.lvlib:Excel Easy Graph.vi->SaveExcelFile.vi->Progetto 2.0.vi
This error code is undefined. Undefined errors might occur for a number of reasons. For example, no one has provided a description for the code, or you might have wired a number that is not an error code to the error code input.
Additionally, undefined error codes might occur because the error relates to a third-party object, such as the operating system or ActiveX. For these third-party errors, you might be able to obtain a description of the error by searching the Web for the error code (-2147023170) or for its hexadecimal representation (0x800706BE).
What can I do?
Thanks. Regards
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The LabVIEW Report Generator in LabVIEW 2010 and more recent versions does, indeed, work very well with Excel in Office 2010. I helped someone about two weeks ago with a problem saving a series of measurements to a (new) Excel Workbook. Your problem differs in two ways -- you want to save in an existing Excel file (why? Aren't you worried about overwriting data, or are you trying to add a new WorkSheet, or append to the end of an existing WorkSheet?) and making a Chart. I've not tried charts, so don't have advice right now.
Judging by your error message, it is the Chart feature that is giving you trouble. Can you see how your code runs if you eliminate the Chart functions? [You can do that by putting a "Diagram Disable" Structure around the Chart code, clicking on the top of the structure and wiring the wires through in the Enable case].
Give that a try and let us know what happens.

File saving problems after updating to 10.7.2

I updated to Mac OS X 10.7.2 on the 12th. Right after this update, I started having problems under XCode (I had updated it to 4.2). I can not save any changes to my source code. I get an error code saying "The document ImportView.m can not be saved. You don't have permission.
Running Disk Utility and fixing permissions does not help.
I also had problems trying to save a screen capture under Grab. Similar problems when I start MS Word.
So, i'm suspecting a combination of Autosave and Versions.
Any clue will be appreciated.
Thanks,

Once I rebooted (I had not done it for about a week now) all the problems disappeared.
I feel a little bit stupid, but there is no warning about having to reboot after installing a new version of XCode.
