IWeb Slower that .Mac

Hi!
My iWeb site is considerably slower than my similar .Mac site. Any suggestions on how to speed it up? I can reduce the size of photos, I know -- but I am using the same shots from the .Mac site.
I have also noticed that iWeb has also INCREASED the size of some single images by 300% or so. (Not the gallery images).
Any thoughts?
I would prefer to make it faster using Apple's .Mac service. If publish this on another, non-Apple server, would it be faster ? Would it be compatible?
Here is my iWeb site:
http://www.danderrico.com
Here is my original site published using .Mac :
http://homepage.mac.com/dansphotos/Menu4.html
Thanks!

If publish this on another, non-Apple
server, .... Would it be
compatible?
Here are some tips for using a non-.mac server:

  • Iweb site on .mac LOADING SLOW! Please Help

    My iweb site loads very slow. It does have a lot of images, but can someone help me to convert some of my text files that iweb made images to text? Or any other advice would be much appreciated.
    Here's my site it's hosted on .mac
    http://youth.kccfamily.org
    Thanks!

    But if that's the solution, then doesn't that mean
    that if I add a new site as a separate domain file,
    it will delete all the old domains again? (my
    bandwidth is not unlimited, though I can use the
    connection at work…)
    No, it won't do this, since any new sites you will (hopefully) be creating in new domain files. The reason it happens after you split the domain files is because each newly split Domain file still had memory of ALL of your sites. So when you deleted the extra sites out to leave one, then iWeb thinks that you wanted them deleted from online as well. That's why it deletes the other sites when you publish one. But after the first round of "Publish Alls", iWeb is satisfied that it has done its job, and it has purged any knowledge of those other sites in the process. So it won't happen again.
    And does using iWebsites complicate matters?
    iWeb won't complicate matters as far as publishing goes.
    How much of a difference does it make, and would it
    be safer to use the manual folder / Domain file
    structure?
    Either method is safe as long as you understand what is going on. All that iWebSites is doing is moving around the different Domain files for you. It also helps you to create new Domain files. It supposed to be easier than doing things manually...or you don't need to know the manual method if you use iWebSites.

  • I have always heard that Macs are less likely to get infected with a virus.  My computer has been running much slower since I installed Maverick.  Just not sure what the problem might be.  Is there a way for me to run a diagnosis?

    I have always heard that Macs are less likely to get infected with a virus.  My computer has been running much slower since I installed Maverick.  Just not sure what the problem might be.  Is there a way for me to run a diagnosis?

    Some have found relief just by reinstalling, but it is more than likely incompatible third-party applications that slow it down.
    You will have to investigate to see what it is.
    Open Activity Monitor and see if anything is using a lot of CPU% or Memory. If they are, check to see if there is an update for them.
    Another place to look is the Console. See if anything is logging repeating messages with throttling and/or respawn in the All Messages list.
    Sometimes it is not that easy to root out the problems, but if you have anything that purported to clean, protect, optimize, maintain, or flush your system, then that is likely the cause.

  • IWeb publishing to .Mac/iDisk- interruptions: does connection speed matter?

    Greetings,
    I posted an earlier message somewhere in the iWeb08 forum regarding my suddenly experiencing lack of completion of publishing iWeb site to .Mac. Publishing just stops - no error message comes up. I have however noticed that my internet connection has been also varying in speed - down to a few dozen kbps in the last day, which is when I started experiencing this problem. Does connection speed affect such publishing? in other words, if connection speed goes down tremendously, does publishing to .Mac sort os "times out"???
    Will appreciate input!

    More than likely you are seeing a cached copy of your website. Sometimes this is a local phenomenon and a simple clearing of your browser cache does the trick (Safari>Empty Cache). However sometimes your ISP is the culprit with caching at their level. This seems to be a chronic problem with ISPs in the UK for some reason. And the only thing you can do is to wait it out.
    You can try adding a "?" to the end of your URL to force Safari to fetch a non-locally-cached copy of your site, but even this won't help if your ISP is overzealously caching material.
    Anyone in the UK can shed light on this ISP phenomenon???

  • Anyone know how to publish iWeb site to .mac groups?

    Hi all
    This is my first message here... So... Be patient plz
    I'm afraid that I know the answer, but I hope that someone can tell me(us) more...
    Is it true that it is NOT possible to publish a site from iWeb to a .mac group?
    Why this feature is missing???
    I've heard that this was present in iWeb 07. Is it true?
    Anyone knows if it will be available in a future patch??
    sigh, I've just buyed a .mac accounts to publish project for private groups... :(((
    Thanks to all for support. Excuse me for my bad English
    Mayran

    It's Sad.
    Groups are, in my opinion, the best feature of .mac account.
    Project, club, private site of people... great things.
    It's why I have payed for this account.
    But if you can't use the integration of mac to build up information
    it's very useless and to me it doesn't appear too professional
    from apple to cut off this feature.
    My fault, I haven't seen this particular information.
    Anyway thanks for the information
    I hope apple will reintegrate this feature

  • Issues with publishing my iWeb site to .MAC - Progress bar freezes at 100%

    Well, as topic says, i'm having troubles publishing my iWeb site to .MAC now since upgrading to '08. The progress bar reaches full circle, but then nothing. Left it uploading to .Mac for well over 2 hours one time while out of the house...nada. Sometimes i get an error message, sometimes not and have to close iWeb while it's still publishing.
    Any feedback regarding this?
    Thanks in advance.
    /Rich

    Update: After 36 hours, I have successfully managed to upload my entire website via the "Publish All to .Mac" option. I now have blue indicators on the left side of my iWeb program in place of those pesky red ones. How did I do it? Well, I'm not sure. But on my last attempt I looked at the problem from a different perspective, so I took an alternate approach. I had a feeling that I was experiencing a network timeout issue caused by a 3rd party software, so I created a Whitelist entry on my website filtering software that allows unlimited access to "idisk.mac.com";; and "web.mac.com";; domains. I've got two kids at home, so I'm running the free OpenDNS Dashboard service on my network which provides content filtering (blocks adult site, phishing site, etc..). I started using this service two weeks ago. My last website update was a week before that. I figured I had nothing to loose by trying. To my surprise, it worked. Now, it took almost two hours to publish, of which the pie indicator was in the  "filled" position for a nerve racking hour. To reconfirm,  I then made a minor change to one of the pages on my website and re-published. This time using the "Publish to .Mac" option in place of the ALL option and once again it worked. It took less than 5 minutes. Now, I'm not sure if this is a coincidence, maybe Apple fixed the problem, or maybe my website filtering service was causing some type of time out issue all along??  Don't know.. But at least for now, I'm a happy camper since I have my site up.

  • ACC slows down Mac OS X Finder (10.8.4)

    I'm an iOS programmer. Knows Mac OS SDK well.
    I downloaded and subscribed Adobe Creative Cloud.
    From then, curious problem appeared on my Finder of Mac OS X.
    If ACC is running background (when ACC is on my menu bar), my Finder slows down or Even cannot access to ANY or some directories.
    At first, it has been observed only in accessing Library folder, but today my Desktop folder was not accessed. Continuous spinning waiting sign....!
    So I quit ACC  and reset Finder, then Everything restores.
    IF I don't quit ACC and reset Finder, then Nothing restores.
    Do you understand this? If not, I will show screen capture video.
    I hoped your new update caught this problem, but it seems not included.
    Be alert to Mac OS X user's voice... I have Windows laptop but it doesn't slow down File Explorer.
    Thank you.

    version of ACC is 1.1.0.213
    Today I executed ACC agent again, and the Finder failed to reach Library folder.
    But after quitting and relaunching of ACC agent, Finder didn't fail to reach to any folder.
    I wil turn it on and will see if those error occurs again.
    Sincerely,
    Hison Kahng

    Hi YerimENTClinic,
    Are you still seeing the behavior?
    What version of Creative Cloud app are you using? (From the Preferences > Account tab)
    Does signing out of Creative Cloud, closing it, relaunching and signing in make any difference?
    Thanks,

  • Running iWeb '08 on Mac OS X server

    I have a problem. I am trying to get iWeb running on a Mac OS X server (Tiger 10.4.10) but when I start iWeb it does not come up with creating new site.
    Can you run iWeb '08 on Mac OS X server?
    Thanks.
    M.

    System requirements for iLife show:
    Mac OS X v10.4.9 or later
    I don't know that the server version would be covered by that. But I also have no personal experience or knowledge.

  • Working on iWeb on 2 macs

    I have 2 macs, a MacBook Pro and an iMac. I think it would be good to work on my website on either machine, sometimes I am home (iMac) and sometimes on the road (MacBook). I followed advice from various web gurus and copied my web site to Dropbox, I did everything they advised and it seemed to work. Now my problem is that the iWeb file won't open from Dropbox and when I try I just get a nice new blank options screen in iWeb. Fortunately I only tried it on one of my machines and my site is safe on the other, otherwise I would have lost my site as it has now disappeared in the old location as well. Here's my question: I can see the file in Dropbox, but I can't open it. How do I get iWeb to recognise and open the file?
    Any ideas appreciated!

    Is your iMac running Lion or Mt. Lion?  If so read the following:
    In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • Open iWeb on another mac using Dropbox or a flash drive?

    I am having a hard time transfering the iWeb file that I created from one mac to another.  I have it saved in Dropbox and have tried to open it from another mac through Dropbox and initailly it wouldn't open it at all.  Then I tried the iWeb Switch Domain and now iWeb will open an extremely out dated version of my site.  And I only have 1 site file.  I have tried transfering it to a flash drive and I get the same result.  Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance for the help!

  • Restore iWeb link to .Mac?

    Hi there,
    I have lost my system data (Not apple's fault) and had to re-install my OS.
    Now I have to re-connect my iWeb with an existing iWeb site on .Mac.
    How do I do that if I don't have a backup? My files are on idisk but how to get 'm back in iweb?
    Thanks
    R.

    Hey guys, thanks for this! Awesome feedback. I'm travelling right now so I won't be able to give this a try till end of the week. I'll be back with the feedback.
    I'm i'm lucky I might actually have that file still somewhere out there.
    However fixing the issue is most important, it's a bit odd that although .mac and most (or all?) of it's services are mirrored thru iDisk that this, where one fiddles with files a lot, isn't a part of that.
    Well, I won't complain, let's just say that iWeb is pretty slick if you want to have something up and running quickly but that we'll probably have to wait til 2.0 for more advanced stuff.
    Later!
    PS My system lost it's integrity through bad memory... things got so bad that it even corrupted the CONTENT of the backup files (Using Apple Backup) while nothing indicated that during the backup process itself. Just be warned... I have the feeling that 10.4.4 is a LOT more picky about hardware! I used 'memtest' (google for it) to identify a faulty 1Gb mem module.

  • Safari 4.0.2 so slow that says you are not connected to internet, & no JAVA

    1)with the new version of safari 4.0.2, and the "loading" imageit is very slow, so slow that then I press any link it says you are not connected to internet. , then I reload again and it loads for the first time the page after a long time.
    this happens so often.
    ... but guess what, I open the connection using another browser and I can see the same pages without problem.
    this version is so low, even when I press to any link... why the loading of pages like apple.com takes too long?
    2)now with this version I can not see applications that runs on java. before it i could , but now it does not display , and the sun page says that for mac one has to check the apple updates, but there is no apple updates until now to complement the java problem.

    This could ( no, will happen if your dsl modem/router is set to give up it's connection when the mac is idle.
    Many dsl modems ( in the UK, at least ) do NOT default to 'always on'.... & a setting must be changed to enable this. Even with 'always on', you will get a similar problem occasionally, but the delay will be just a few seconds.... not 30+.
    Some modems can be accessed by entering 192.168.1.1 into safari - check the instructions for yours.
    Also some(!) isp's don't allow always on & force a disconnection when idle. Mine does - but you can opt-out of it via their website.
    I bet if you mention the make/model of your dsl gear, somebody here can tell you exactly where to find these settings.

  • I just heard on NPR that Macs are now vulnerable to viruses. What should I do?

    I switched to a Mac from a PC because I was told Macs don't get viruses.  I just heard on NPR's Morning Edition that Macs are no longer immune, and that in fact Apple's attitude that "We don't get viruses," makes Mac users perhaps more vulnerable than PC users, because Apple is not as vigilant. The link below gives worrisome details.
    http://www.zdnet.com/blog/bott/new-mac-malware-epidemic-exploits-weaknesses-in-a pple-ecosystem/4726
    What do we do now?

    I just got off the phone with Applecare senior advisers, and here is what they say:
    - Mac can get viruses, just like PCs, they just don't get them as often. The threat is still small, but it is real. Make sure you download all security updates religiously. The advisers also suggested that if I "felt like I needed more protection" there are third party virus protection programs for the Mac. They named McAffee and Symantec. At that point I started getting ugly flashbacks to my PC days of molasses-slow performance and virus scans gumming up the works. I told them I wasn't looking for something to make me feel better, I needed Apple's official recommendation to users. There doesn't seem to be one, but here is additional info I got:
    - For a virus to install itself on your Mac, you will have to invite it in, i.e., a little window will pop up asking you to download or install something. Many legitimate sites ask you to do that sort of thing, so the advice from Apple is make sure you know and trust the site before clicking OK. If you are not sure, open another tab and research the site you were thinking of allowing in.
    - One major reason Macs have not been vulnerable to viruses until now is that they did not present a large enough target for evildoers. The other reason is that the Mac OS is harder to get into than Windows. Smaller target + more work means smaller returns, so crooks have mostly left Macs alone. Now that Apple is the new 800 pound gorilla, it presents a juicier target, and the risk is increasing.
    - As for disabling Java, I don't want to do that, I need it for streaming stock quotes. Besides, that only addresses the current Trojan, and there is no guarantee that the next virus will use the same platform.
    I made a specific request that corporate address the information in the NPR segment. Apple should not ignore this. They need to elaborate and advise users on whether this was legitimate information or an ill-researched scare piece. The "virus-free" environment has been a big selling point for Apple computers, and if it no longer applies, we need to know.

  • Restoring iWeb website from .mac and idisk files

    my hard drive on my PowerMac failed this week and was replaced.
    i am trying to restore my website in iWeb on the Mac. I sync with iDisk and it appears all the content is in directories there under /web/sites/iWeb.
    To start up iWeb with all files in place on my Mac, where do I need to put these files?
    Thanks,
    Jeremy
    PowerMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   2.5 GB RAM

    J....
    all of the iWeb files are saved in a file called DOMAIN on your hard disk. You find it here.
    harddisk/users/username/library/application support/iweb/domain
    THIS is the file you have to back up after you publish or save your site. If your hard disk crashes again, just put the copy into the folder of this path and reopen iweb.
    The post above about recopying the files into iWeb is right. It's not iWeb's fault that your disk crashed. Any program data that wasn't backed up, regardless of the application, was lost when that disk crashed.
    I know this isn't what you needed to hear bro, but I hope it helps for the future.

  • DW8 slow on Mac OS X. Any remedy?

    I've got a G5 single processor 1.8, 2GB SDRAM which is pretty
    OK. All
    apps are working quite well and as fast as one can expect.
    But DW (both
    2004 and 8.0.2 which use now) has always been a major PITA.
    More or less
    each and every command takes 2-4 seconds to execute. It's not
    only
    frustrating to be forced to wait this "long" time hundreds
    (thousands)
    of times each day. Precious time is also going out the drain
    as I lose
    perhaps 1-2 hours/day this way.
    I searched Adobe for info, and found just one "fix" which was
    to trash
    the preference file. I did that, but I can't see any
    increased speed.
    I also have a gadget that's prioritizing CPU power, and I'm
    always
    having DW to get all before any other app. DW consumes 40-60%
    of the CPU
    each time it executes a command.
    I don't have many extensions (10-12) but they shouldn't
    affect DW
    anyway, should they? Further, I don't have more than 6-7
    sites defined,
    the cache folder in Application Support is a mere 5 MB...
    Anyone knows of a fix or tips how to increase speed?
    Thanks in advance for suggestions....
