Iweb with personal domain

i have my own personal site, and i put in my iweb site anda appears 404 error, can you support me to know the correct way..

What is the URL of your site? We need to know this. Also, are you using MobileMe or some other webhost? It sound's like your website isn't published correctly, but we need to know this information to help you.

  • Using iweb with personal domain, but without a mobile me account

    hi, i recently purchased a domain from google (enom) and i want to upload a website that i created with iweb. However, i don't want to use a mobile me(or .mac) account to forward it. i know there is ftp involved and although other forums have explained it, they didnt go in depth enough for me to understand how to do it. a guide to doing this or some kind of explanation would be extremely helpful. thank you

  • Site made with iWeb using personal domain name

    I have created a web site on iWeb 08 and have a personal domain name through Network Solutions.
    The website was published to Mobile Me after "set up personal domain" was done. The C Name record was changed at Network Solutions to web.me.com. When I write the domain name in the browser a box comes down asking "idisk.mac.com" wants user name and password.
    1. Why is it asking for this?
    2. every ID and Password I put in, it tells me is incorrect? Ahhhhhhhh What does it want from me?
    Please help - I've waisted so much time on this (since last week).
    The website name is www.theplazarealty.com is you want to take a look.
    Thank you

    This relates to a problem I can't find in the iWeb manual. Where is my iWeb site actually published to, so I can accurately update it using FTP software, and which method to use for publishing it to domain names?
    I have created two websites for two different purposes each with a personal domain (one hosted, the other with webforwarding), and through ignorance have done all three options Publish to MobileMe / Publish All to MobileMe / and Publish to a folder (my home computer user Sites folder). As a result I have three Sites folders each containing both 'mysites'- Computer/user/Sites/sitename, or iDisk/user/Sites/sitename, or iDisk/user/Web/Sites/sitename - all different sizes, worryingly, leaving me unclear which is doing what. What is the diff between Publish All to MMe and Publish to MMe - they both seem to entail both sites totally republishing even if only one page has changed. Each time, of course, it takes several minutes or more to clear through the publishing process, and then some 20-30mins more to synchronise with FTP before I find out whether I've only used the duff old version after all. What is the difference between the three Sites destination folders? Can the difference be used productively? Should I, eg, ensure my sites exist both on my computer and iDisk as backup?
    Further confusing factor is that when I log into MMe and look at my folders icon on my iDisk, which are Sites and Web/Sites, the contents of the two 'mysites' folders listed under both areas are different from the SITES/iWeb display listed below them, which seems to be a truncated sort of merger of the 'mysites' contents without their separation into two. Is that iWeb item under SITES on the folders page listing a fourth set of the contents,or what?
    Now to synchronising/updating: which Sites folder to use to synchronise the websites with. Can I get updating in sync with republishing? My domain host UKcentric does not provide the CNAME options you have all talked about and they are unobtainable on my hosted domain page. I sent him the web.me.com message as described in the iWeb Personal Domain instrux, but he has persistently instructed me to use FTP software to upload and update the sites. He is not Mac-friendly, he admits. I have now used three programs, ClassicFTP, FileZilla and Cyberduck, all of which seem to be rather different and none of them has told me the sync has completed (the connection drops out, etc - it does take a long time, say 30-40mins to do, and I never know when I "resume" whether it'll pick up where it was or go back to zero start). If I am stuck with this laborious method of regular manual updating, I want to know I am using the correct Sites folder to synchronise the website with. None of this is clarified in the iWeb manual. Can anyone help?

  • Multiple Web Sites with Personal Domain Names - Overview

    I have read through the last 10 pages of these discussions and have almost worked this out, but I need some help.
    Problem:
    I want to publish and edit two separate web sites with their own, individual, personal web addresses
    from the same user account on the same Mac using iWeb '08 (2.0.2) and my .Mac account
    _So far:_
    I have purchased and registered the two domain names (with Cheap-DomainRegistration.com)
    I have configured the CNAME to point to web.mac.com, and "Set up a Personal Domain" in iWeb successfully, but using a separate Mac for each web site.
    The two sites work great.
    _What (I think) I need to know:_
    (excuse me for copying these posts out, but I can't find a way to link them to this post)
    1) Should I be using iWebSites as suggested by Old Toad (posted Jan 24 in response to StAnNe's "Multiple Websites--HELP!!!")?
    I use iWebSites to manage multiple sites.. It lets me create multiple sites and multiple domain files.
    2) Should I be using Mireille's approach (also posted Jan 24 in response to StAnNe's "Multiple Websites--HELP!!!")?
    Yes you are correct in the thought that with a family pack you can use different accounts and that is the easiest way to upload with one click to .mac. But it is still possible to publish differents sites to one .mac account if that is all one has. Even if the sites are in one domain file each purchased mysite.com domain name purchased can be pointed to a different page in the site
    Look at it this way
    Original Poster has
    site1 page 1 page 2 and so on
    then he/she has brothersite page 1 and so on.
    They each have a domain name purchase wherever
    then site1domain.com is forwarded to site 1 page1
    and brotherdomain.com is forwarded to brothersite page 1.
    Even though both sites are in the same file they do not have anything to do with each other.
    This is one possibility there are others but for a novice user this could be the way to go for simplicity.
    (Mireille, if you're there, can you clarify what you said - thank you)
    3) Would I use Roddy's fix (posted Jan 23 in response to canadensis' "Publishing Multiple Websites?")?
    Here's an example of how you can separate two websites that are on the same domain file.
    Quit iWeb
    Create a new folder on your desktop and call it "iWeb Sites".
    Inside this folder create two more - Website A, Website B.
    Go to Home Folder/Library/Application Support/iWeb and copy your domain file - command C
    Paste this into folders A and B - command V - and also paste a copy of it somewhere else - like in Docs - in case you make a mistake!
    Double click the domain file in the folder Website A - this will launch iWeb.
    In the left column, delete site B, save and quit iWeb.
    Double click the domain file in the folder Website B to launch iWeb.
    Delete website A, save and quit.
    Drop the iWeb sites folder into your Home Folder.
    If you want quick access to this folder you can highlight it and do command L to create an alias to leave on the desktop.
    From now on, to launch any site in iWeb you open its folder in the iWebsites folder and double click the domain file.
    This is not necessary when you are working on only one site as iWeb saves the domain file of the last site you were working on to Home Folder/Library/Application Support/iWeb. When you open the iWeb application, the last site you worked on will be launched.
    Summary:
    I'm not sure if some of the answers in previous discussions allow for personal domain names, which is what I need.
    I would be very grateful for any suggestions as I'm getting bogged down.
    Many Thanks,
    Jeff

    When you said, "you don't need to do CNAME for both sites…", would this method still allow me to use personal web addresses for both sites?
    Yes. With "Ordinary Forwarding" you normally just type your .Mac url (web.mac.com/username/sitename) into a form at the place where you have your name.
    I thought I was using 'web.mac.com' as the 'www' CNAME (alias) for my personal domain name (web address), so that when someone typed in my personal domain name they would 'go' to the domain registration location, which would then pass it on to the .Mac server, where my web site is hosted.
    That's exactly right. It's just not the only way to do that. Ordinary Forwarding is another way, but it differs in terms of what appears in the address bar of the browser. Either you will see web.mac.com/username/.... or, if you add "masking", you will see your personal name for all pages. The CNAME method results in a address bar that reads www.myname.com/sitename/pagename.html.
    Am I way off?
    All help gratefully received,
    Jeff

  • Multiple sites created in iWeb '08 / Personal Domains for Each?

    If I create more than one site in iWeb, can each site have its own Personal Domain?
    So far, I have created 2 sites: When I publish the first one, it shows up on the web as http://web.mac.com/myname/nameofmysite/etc (which is fine). But I would like for the 2nd site to go to my personal url.
    I registered my domain name with GoDaddy, and have gone thru the process of assigning the CNAME at GoDaddy and Personal Domain at mac.com
    The problem is: When I click on Visit Published Site in iWeb, it goes to my domain name (www.mydomainname.com/my2ndsitename), but still showing the standard "placeholder" home page at GoDaddy.
    What do I need to do to make my ONLY my 2nd site show up at my personal url? And do I still need to do something else at GoDaddy to make my actual site appear at my personal domain url?

    The site you want to use CNAME with must be the topmost site in the organizer at the left side inside the iWeb app when you publish (or the last site you publish if you are using separated Domain files).
    It would be good to provide your url(s) if you want further help.
    Only one CNAME type pointing can be used per account, but you can use ordinary forwarding/masking for other sites, where you just type the longer url (http://web.mac.com/username/sitename) into a form at the place which has your name.

  • IWeb 08 Personal Domain Setup - HELP!!!

    I own a domain through Godaddy and host my iWeb site on .Mac. I have always used Godaddy's domain forwarding to redirect www.lucascantor.com to web.mac.com/lucascantor. Now that Apple has included a personal domain feature in iWeb, I followed their instructions to set up my site so that instead of redirecting to web.mac.com/lucascantor, www.lucascantor.com simply is the url. Now www.lucascantor.com just goes to a Godaddy page. I have waited 48 hours and nothing has changed. Even if I re-enable domain forwarding, I still see the godaddy page in place of my site.
    My settings look like this:
    Apple: http://tinyurl.com/34dlp4
    Godaddy: http://tinyurl.com/33k75x
    Somebody please let me know if there is something I need to change,
    Thanks!

    You have two ways to use a personal domain name with .Mac:
    a) The one which has already been available for years, namely using domain forwarding and masking. I guess that is what you are doing now
    b) The new one which has you make a CNAME entry. This has a number of advantages over a), including a url in the browser address bar of the form http://www.mydomain.com/sitename/pagename.html, no forwarding/masking involved.
    If the place you have your domain does not let you do b), then you are stuck with a) or you need to change the place where your name is located.
    If you want something else, best host your site on a different server, as least for the next couple years.

  • IWeb and personal domain

    Is it possible to create a website using iWeb and upload it to personal domain (www.mydomain.com) without Mobile Me?

    Yes, you can.
    Sign up at a webhost, with or without a domainname, and publish.
    Before you do, you can practice on your own computer :
    http://www.wyodor.net/Tutorials/iWebDemo/sFTP.html
    And you don't upload to a personal domain. You upload to a server.
    And browse this forum. It has been discussed several times a day every day since June last year.
    Can any one recommend a web hosting company

  • Issues with Personal Domain & mail forwarding.

    Hi all,
    I have (after several weeks of fiddling, tinkering, messing and stressing) finally got my personal domain pointed at my iWeb site. It took long enough, but now everything is as it should be.
    Except for one small annoying thing.
    I have mail forwarding set up at my domain registrar. This works fine, expect when sending mail using .mac mail. In other words, when someone sends mail to an e-mail address which uses my domain name - it arrives in my inbox. But it someone sends it using the mac.com servers, then it gets returned as undeliverable.
    Anybody got any ideas?
    Thanks in advance,
    Paul C.

    To clarify, if I've registered the domain "mydomain.com", my registrar forwards any e-mails that are addressed: [email protected] to the mailbox of my ISP.
    This works when e-mails are sent to this address via an ISP's smtp server and via most webmail. But when sent via mac.com servers, it comes back with a failure stating: "reason: 554 5.7.1 Recipient access denied.

  • Using existing .Mac pages in iWeb to personal domain

    I've tried to find a way to take my existing .Mac pages and move them to my new domain. I made these pages way back when .Mac first started. Does anyone know if it's possible to bring in your existing .Mac pages, then change them to a personal domain?
    Message was edited by: Pup

    Can't be done, as iWeb cannot import anything.
    If you have a MobileMe account, then it should be possible to move your homepage and place it in the Sites folder on your iDisk.

  • IWEB, CNAME, Personal domain name

    If anyone could provide some advice it would be very much appreciated - Tom thanks for you earlier help. I attach the latest email to Apple Support.
    Hi Arthur, (The Apple Support Consultant)
    We still have the same problems, even after entirely deleting all websites, idisks etc and carrying out the steps you asked (even though this is what we had already explained to you that we had done!). To requalify we have:
    a) Ensured that we have a proper domain name (www.mpi.com.au)
    b) Ensured that we have created a CNAME alias (www.mpi.com.au -> web.mac.com)
    c) Associating the name www.mpi.com.au as our personal domain
    d) Allowed more than 48 hrs
    e) no case sensitivities
    f) publish to site WITHOUT registering www.mpi.com.au to dotmac, works perfectly (ie from web with http://web.mac.com/mpimpi/Sites/index.html and when you log into .mac ([email protected]) and check My Pages, any of the pages work properly.
    g) more interesting is when you log into .mac ([email protected]) after registering www.mpi.com.au as our personal domain and republish whole site and check the account settings personal domain you see www.mpi.com.au listed and when you click on it you see a redirection to web.mac.com and then to http://www.apple.com/dotmac.
    h) Further interesting effects occur when you log into .mac ([email protected]) and check My Pages, any of the pages (ie "About Us" redirects to http://www.mpi.com.au/Sites/About_Us.html) and then to http://www.mac.com/account_error.html. (Apples I'm Sorry - Our records show that the account you're attempting to connect to either does not exist or is currently inactive page).
    i) the account is paid for and appears to be active!
    DNS entries:
    Host Record type Value
    64.13.248.146/24 PTR mpi.com.au.
    ftp.mpi.com.au. CNAME mpi.com.au.
    mail.mpi.com.au. A 64.13.248.146
    mpi.com.au. NS ns.mpi.com.au.
    mpi.com.au. A 64.13.248.146
    mpi.com.au. MX(10) mail.mpi.com.au.
    ns.mpi.com.au. A 64.13.248.146
    webmail.mpi.com.au. A 64.13.248.146
    www.mpi.com.au CNAME web.mac.com.
    Arthur, we realy need to get this resolved can we get developer/senior problem solver assistance. I think that the items points g & h are very relevant!

    After great assistance from Apple (thanks Arthur!!) and our new DNS service provider we have our website online and working as required. The resolution required a switch to another DNS service provider.
    We are now using SecuritySpace (www.securityspace.net, www.securityspace.com). They are extremely competent, very responsive and a pleasure to deal with. I've suggest that Apple list a set of known DNS providers that dotmac clients should deal with. I cc'ed SecuritySpace support on this mail.
    Best regards,

  • Help with personal domain and GoDaddy

  • I can't use iCal invitation with personal domain-mail

    Hi,
    I use iCal on iCloud with my personal domain mail [email protected]
    When I invite another user that have an email address with the same domain like [email protected], the email invitation doesn't arrive!
    Why??
    I try the same thing with google calendar, and the invitation arrive correctly...

    You have transported all your old copies of those applications onto your Mavericks system. You can't do that nor do you have to. Please do a proper reinstall:
    Install or Reinstall Mavericks, Mountain Lion, or Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    OS X Mavericks- Erase and reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Erase and reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Erase and reinstall Mac OS X
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • I want more than one site, all with personal domain names

    I have a dot mac account and I created a personal website using iweb (www.personalname.com) and now I would like to make a site for my business using iweb (www.businessname.com). Is that even possible? I've followed directions from other people. i know that I need to go into iweb and under file click new site and choose the templates and so on. But once I do all of that, I click publish and a box comes up and says this new site will now be published under your www.personalname.com.
    Am I missing something, or do I have to buy a completely new dot mac account for my business? Someone please help and walk me through this.
    Thanks a bunch!

    As Wyodor suggested have your domain name provider activate domain name forwarding for the second site. You'll need to open that site in your browser and get the actual URL to give the provider for forwarding.
    To make it easier to edit and publish individual sites I use iWebSites to manage multiple sites.. It lets me create multiple sites and multiple domain files.
    If you have multiple sites in one domain file here's the workflow I used to split them into individual site files with iWebSites. Be sure to make a backup copy of your original Domain.sites files before starting the splitting process.
    This lets me edit several sites and only republish the one I want.
    If you expect a lot of traffic to your business site you might want to consider having it hosted on a commercial hosting site that will not be bogged down with all of the bells and whistles that the MobileMe servers are in order to provide all of the special features. A commercial server will be faster and more reliable. Depending on where you purchase your business domain name you can host it on their servers.
