Iweb won't open at all

i don't know why but all of a sudden i can't open my iweb, i've hardly even used it and i didn't delete any of the files, when i try to open it is say an error has occurred ya da yah, and it says to reset the default settings and try restarting....... that didn't work, so any suggestions as to what could be wrong? i have like 180 gigs of free space and 512 mb of ram, so i don't think it's a memory problem.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try deleting the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, from your User/Library/Preferences folder.

Iweb won't Open After All Steps

Hey all. I woke to an unresponsive Iweb this morning, and have gone through all known steps to revive it. I've moved the domain, trashed the prefs, caches, etc...... I have reinstalled it more than once, and it still persists.
It simply hangs up when trying to open, and then "unexpectedly quits".
Can anyone tell me what my next option may be, and hopefully not a full system reinstall?

Try the troubleshooting steps here....
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/WebMusic/iWebTips.html
.... and also make sure that you followed the steps for the reinstall as outlined on the same page and test for a corrupt domain file.

IWeb won't open-cannot find "index.xml" file

I've been having kernel panics lately and ran off my hard drive to another Mac (iMac) -not using migration assistant-and upon returning back to my main computer (MacBook Pro) and after diligently saving my Domain file, iWeb won't open because it cannot find the "index.xml". I have the site up on my idisk and when I open up the package in Domain, there's plenty in there. How do I get back to where I was-an iWeb site that I can manipulate.
Any way I can get what I do still have to work? Or do I have to make my site from scratch again even though I have loads of files all over the place and only this one missing?
I think Apple needs to tell us "how" and "what" to save when we need to vacate a computer because of kernel panics and the like-wouldn't you say? I ALWAYS suffer from something missing when I have to put the OS back on the computer from scratch-not to mention hours of wasted time downloading updates again and having to find keycodes and various application discs!

Welcome to the discussions, RPashman.
I got this message before when I was editing multiple Domain.sites. I believe it happened when I tried to Publish when the Domain was not in the iWeb folder. During the Publish, it places a Domain file in the iWeb folder (maybe because it has to publish from there even though the actual file is elsewhere??) and if anything goes wrong, iWeb when it next opens will default to that improperly created Domain.sites file.
Check in the iWeb directory (Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites
) and see how large the Domain.sites file is. If it's something under a meg, then maybe this is what happened to you. Move it out of that directory (I held mine just in case) then relaunch iWeb. Since there's not a Domain.sites file there anymore, it should ask if you want to create one or open an existing one.
Not sure if this happened to you, but it's possible. It happened to this user as well.

Can't open file Domain.sites2 - OS 10.5.8 iWeb won't open.

hi, can anyone help?
I haven't installed Lion. i'm still using 10.5.8
I last edited my website on December 5,2011 and today it won't open at all.
Geting an error message Can't open file Domain.sites2
I've tried copying the file to a new location - but it won't open there either.
i've tried restoring a version from December 10th using Time Machine but it won't open that file either...
any ideas, anyone?
thanks
Kat

In Lion the 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 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 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.

ITunes won't open at all... only error messages

hey guys,
no idea what's going on with my iTunes its really annoying though here's the scoop i got a lot of bad crap on my comp. so i had it formatted by a guy at work came home installed itunes opened it up it worked great all the sudden it closes itself and now it won't open at all i've redownloaded it at least ten times... nothing works... soon as i click on the iTunes icon it says iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close i sent the error report and it said Apple had a solution to my problem.. but after hours of searching i have found nothing so i'm just going to post this up hoping someone knows whats up (um just for some info i went to my add/remove hardware and quicktime wasn't in there... that's not right i think someone let me know lol)
any help would be much appreciated really wanting to update my new songs on my iPod

No thats not right, iTUnes uses parts of quicktime to play audio and video. You need to go here and download the stand alone version of quicktime. Now apple has recently changed this page to include quicktime with iTUnes and then qwuicktime only. get the one WITHOUT iTUnes,

Mail suddenly won't open at all

I clicked on the stammp icon for my mac mail about 3 days ago and it won't open at all. No matter how often you click, it does nothing. If I access it through the web, it works on the web, but not straight from the icon. My ical program quit opening the same day. Any ideas about how to fix this?
Thanks!

In the Finder, go to /Applications/. Can you see Mail there? Try to open it by double-clicking on it.
Verify/repair your disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
Now, take a look at the following article, in case this is a font issue:
Font Management in Mac OS X Tiger and Panther
You may also want to read the following article:
Multiple applications quit unexpectedly or fail to launch
If the above doesn't work, proceed as follows to try to identify the problem:
1. Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
2. From the File menu, choose either Open Console Log, or Open System Log, or both, so that the Console application displays the contents of both system.log and console.log.
3. In the Finder, go to /Applications/, and try to open Mail by double-clicking on it. Look at the bottom of the Console windows for messages that might be written there as a result. They may provide some clues as to what the problem is.

Safari won't open at all

When I try to open Safari the icon just bounces a few times and the rainbow wheel spins for a bit and then nothing happens.
Safari doesn't open, the icon stops bouncing and everything just goes back to as if I never clicked on the icon to open Safari. I don't know what is going on. Safari has always worked fine and this just started sometime yesterday out of the blue.
I've read some of the other posts and I tried to open Safari via a different user account and that did not work. I did the cache/library suggestions from my user home and that didn't work. I also did the 4.2.2.2 suggestion in the DNS Server and that didn't work either. Safari just won't open at all. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried to repair the permissions? This is usually the first thing I do when something is not working right. If you recently installed a new application, sometimes the permissions can get messed up for other applications. Run Disk Utility which is in your Utilities folder to do this. You can find out more at http://www.learntomac.com/index.php/2006/10/15/repairing-permissions/
Hopefully this will work for you!

Firefox has been crashing when I try to close it and now won't open at all.

For some time now, Firefox has been timing out when I tried to close it, making it necessary to "force quit." Now it won't open at all. Even more strangely, I'm not able to send a crash report to Apple (I get the message "submission failed").
I've tried downloading the newest version, downloading plug-ins, and starting in "safe mode."
Also strange, in my bookmarks section the little icons had disappeared lately.

Sorry I do not use Mac s Unless someone provides a better answer I suggest you start with looking at
* [[latest firefox issues]] (watch for any updates about new issues)
* [[firefox crashes]] <br> That article provides general tips and suggestions, and explains how to obtain a crash ID, something that you can do even when firefox will not start
You may need to investigate the possibility of a malware problem, but try to obtain a crash ID first, that may provide a clue to the problem.

Invalid Library File - ITunes won't open - AT ALL!!!

hi, need some help! ITunes won't open, at all. Have followed Apple's advice to recreate library (by locating library.xml and moving it to the desktop, while trashing the ITunes library.itl file)ITunes still doesn't open. Connecting Ipod to laptop does nothing either! Any advice would be great!

Hey try this out:
Turn Norton 2005's Personal Firewall OFF, (turn it OFF Permanently until your ready to turn it back on) then click CONFIGURE.
Under the PROGRAMS tab remove any reference to Apple iTunes or iTunes or iTunes Helper Module or anything related. and reboot.
After coming back go back to Norton 2005's Personal Firewall, click CONFIGURE. Under the PROGRAMS tab click ADD at the bottom, a SELECT A PROGRAM
window will pop up. Add the following files one at a time, iTunes.exe, iTunesHelper.exe, QuickTimePlayer.exe, qttask.exe, QTInfo.exe. The last 3 are found
in your Quicktime folder where that is in your system. Click OK. Turn Norton 2005's Personal Firewall ON, and try starting iTunes again.
This worked for me. It seems the Quicktime files were never automatically entered into my Norton 2005's Personal Firewall allowable programs listing. Adding them
manually should help. I also noticed that from my previous version of iTunes the program listed in the Firewall was named Apple iTunes and not iTunes after I upgraded to 6.
Let me know if this works out.

Itunes won't open at all in Windows 8

Ever since my computer froze and had to be shut down earlier today itunes won't open at all. When I click nothing happens. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling everything apple related, restarting my computer, moving folders around, etc. and no solution I've found online works. This used to happen on my old laptop (Vista) but restarting would always make it work again.

Did you actually download the installer from Apple or did you use Software Update. You can download the installer http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Maybe I'm old fashioned but I would consider repairing permissions first using Disk Utility because something caused this to go wrong the first time. And of course make a backup of your whole library first. It shouldn't happen but some have complained about their libraries being wiped out by iTunes updates. Better safe...

Sounds like an activation issue. Quite Premiere Pro. Sign out of Creative Cloud. Restart Premiere Pro. Sign back in: http://bit.ly/CC-sign-out
Hope that works for you.
