Moving website from old Mac to new Mac

Hello, I have read a few of the discussions and I am sure that the reply to this question is in there somewhere but thought maybe someone could answer me directly as I didn't understand some of the other discussions.
My husband took our old macbook pro with him on business for 3 months and I had designed two websites on it. We only paid for one .mac account and on one of the websites we paid to have a domain name (www.heliwagon.com) if that matters.
So my question is how do I get those websites on my new mac so I can edit and work on them. I read in the other discussions about getting them on a thumbdrive and copying them to this computer but that isn't an option as I am not able to get to his computer for months. I also read about signing out and logging in as him but there is only one account set up on this new one and it's me....maybe I missed what they were saying on that one but hopefully someone can step me through it as I am a new mac user and need all the little steps.
Thanks in advance for any helpful hints.

Yes, that is exactly it. If you don't have a copy of the domain.sites file from his computer then there is nothing that you can do. You need the domain file to be able to make any alteration to your sites.
If you go into iWeb on your new computer, as you have found, unless there is a previous domain file with a site in it, then yes, iWeb will ask you to create a new site.
You will either have to wait until your husband returns to make the desired changes or e-mail him and ask him to do it.

  • Moving iWeb from old computer to new

    I just bought a new computer with iLife 08, the old computer has iLife 06. How do I move my website from iWeb to the new computer? I saw one internet suggestion that I look for a file in users/myname/library/application support/iweb. This folder does not exist on my old computer. Thanks for any help.

    On the old computer the domain file for iweb is only in the library folder under the main HD and not in the user library. I copied this Domain, and on the new computer the only iweb folder was in the user library (which there is only one user) so I pasted the domain file there. This did not work, when I open iweb I still get he start up for new user screen.

  • Moving apps from old citrus to new Phone

    I am upgrading from a Motorola Citrus to a Samsung Stratosphere, which is supposed to arrive tomorrow,

    Your apps are all connected to your Gmail account.  Once you sign in they are supposed to re-install automatically on the new phone (though that doesn't always happen).  If it doesn't happen, you have two options, you can either access the Play Store on your computer here: https://play.google.com/store and click on My Android Apps (top right), then go through them and click install on each one (make sure your new phone is signed into your Gmail account, and open the Play Store on your phone at least once) and they will be pushed to your phone.  Or, you can open the Play Store, then press menu>my apps, then swipe to the right.  This will give you a list of every app you have ever installed, and you can pick which ones to re-install.  I find the computer method to be easier, but hopefully they get pushed to your phone automagically.

  • Moving iPhoto from old Mac to new Mac

    I got a new iMac and have been trying to move my iPhoto library from my old one to the new one. I followed instructions I found here in these discussions, but I'm still having trouble. Here's what I've done:
    I copied the library from my old computer (from the Pictures folder) to a flash drive.
    Then I moved it from the flash drive to the Pictures folder on the new Mac.
    Then I opened iPhoto.
    Nothing happened, except a yellow sticky-note looking thing is there that says "To get started, do any of the following..."
    I had read something else here about going to File and selecting Switch Library, so I did that and still nothing happened.
    I even tried downloading the iPhoto Library Updater (something else I read about here), but it said it didn't need to be uploaded.
    Any ideas?

    I tried hooking the computers together when I first got the new one last month, but it must have been too confusing for me (can't really remember why it didn't work) because I decided to just do it with a flash drive instead. Do I need to trash the iPhoto library that's on the flash drive before I format it, or will formatting delete it anyway? I thought I read that this flash drive was already formatted for Mac OS before I bought it, but maybe not. And if you have any instructions for me as to how to format it, I would greatly appreciate it. You've probably guessed I don't know much about all this.
    Thanks for your response

  • Moving music from old mac to new mac via iPhone

    I have synced my iPhone with my iMac since I got it (July 07). I now have a Macbook and I want to transfer everything from my iMac iTunes library to my Macbook. Can I do this with my iPhone without messing up my iPhone. I have about 250 songs and few ringtones that I need to move to my Macbook. I also have about 40 photos and lot of contact information on my iPhone. All help will be appreciated!
    I have both songs I bought off iTunes and songs from cd's, if this helps.
    Message was edited by: MacTexas

    No. The iphone is not a storage device. It is designed not to allow this.
    You can use migration assistant to move everything from your old Mac to your new Mac. I have done this and it works great.
    You can transfer itunes purchases, however. In itunes, with iphone attached, click File>Transfer Purchases.
    Photos are optimized for viewing on iphone and are a reduced quality. Like music the photo sync is one way - computer to iphone. You can e-mail them to yourself one at a time. They will be of reduced quality.
    Again, Migration Assistant (included with your Mac) is intended for this very thing. Why not use it?

  • Moving Library from old mac to new

    I just bought a new IMac and want to move my IPhoto library to the new Mac. Old mac is running IPhoto 7, New one has 8.0. I haven't been able to find a definitive answer on how to do this. I need to keep my Keywords. Tried to start Migration Assistant but after 20 minutes spinning it's wheels "calculating size" I gave up.
    Is there an easy answer to this?

    John,
    iLife '08 contains iPhoto '08, which is the name for iPhoto version 7, which should now be updated to 7.0.2. The previous version is iPhoto 6, from iLife '06, which has the highest update at 6.0.6. Is that clear as mud?
    To move your library, copy the entire iPhoto Library folder as an entity to the Pictures folder of your new Mac. Then follow Old Toad's BatChmod fix to correct any permissions problems that may arise from the move:
    "...download and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, putting your administrative name, long or short, in the owner and group sections. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field."
    If that is the only library in your Pictures folder, then launch iPhoto and it should tell you it needs to upgrade your library to work with the new version. iPhoto will take care of the upgrade from there, and when it's done your library will be converted and opened in all its new v7 glory. If you already have a library in your new Mac, be sure to give the old library a distinct name before you copy it over to avoid overwriting the new one. Hold down the Option key while launching and you can choose which library you want to open. To merge libraries, you can use iPhoto Library Manager.
    Regards.

  • Moving iTunes from Old Computer to New Computer

    I want to move my iTunes music files and playlists from my "old" mac to a "new" mac. All music on "old" mac was loaded from CDs; there are no iTunes Store downloads in my iTunes Music Folder. In addition to the music files, I also want to move the playlists.
    I know how to move the Music Folder. But, how do I move the playlists I have created on the "old" mac? Can my iPod assist in this effort?
    I would appreciate a little guidance. Thank you. Dale

  • Moving iDVD from old MBP to new MBP retina.

    My old MBP (with internal super drive) is running 10.7.5 and has iDVD on it.  Obviously the new MBP Retina does comes with 10.8.2 and does not have iDVD.  Is there a way I can get iDVD off the old machine and install it on the new one?  (I have the external Apple Super Drive and need to burn some DVDs)
    Thanks!
    Trey

    I think you can copy iDVD from the /Applications folder on your old Mac to your new Mac's /Application folder. If that doesn't work, you can use your SuperDrive and install iDVD from your iLife DVD.

  • Moving files from old iMac to new iMac

    I am about to buy a new iMac and wish to move all of the data from my old iMac to the new machine. I have backed up data with both Carbon Copy Cloner and with Time Machine. Which of these should I use to move my old data over to the new computer?

    Last week I had to do this very thing. Both Macs ran 10.6.2, the old SL Retail; the new had a new 'SL Build.' (10C2234) (Only bought Retail a short while ago and now it cant be used on the 27" .. Duh!)
    In the past I have had problems using MA because I did not migrate the User from the old Mac I created a new user before doing so.
    In this case I booted the old Mac in Target Mode (on boot hold "T" key down until FW floater seen), connected it to the 27" via FW 800 and booted 27".
    I checked migrate the lot. (There are many upgrades to previous basic SW so I didn't want to go through all these upgrades.)
    1H49m shortened to 45m or so and all done.
    I opened Eudora only to be told Rosetta wasn't installed! No invitation to 'Get IT?' I installed Rosetta from the Retail DVD.
    I rebooted and got kernel panics.
    I booted from SL (Cloned previously to a FW drive Partition on TM) and got KP's again.
    I booted the 27" in Safe Mode (Hold Shift down on boot until spinning gear runs) and set about trashing all 3rd Party stuff in HD>Library>StartupItems Folder.
    Stil got KP's when booting normally.
    I ran DiskWarrior 4.2 on the 27" from the FW Partition after booting this Vol in Safe Mode, and DW got confused requesting to CD boot ... you cannot boot 2009 (Late) Macs from the 4.2 CD/DVD.
    'Phoned Apple and found there was ANOTHER StartupItems Folder ... System>Library>StartupItems.
    This had 3 Folders that were put there by Parallels 5 running on my old Mac. Copied (dragged) to DT, deleted from StartupItems, rebooted and no KP. (Thanks Apple Help!)
    Trashed the copied Folders as they were of no use.
    So far there have been no major problems; Camino quit 4 times, now stable? Snitch needed registering again.
    Runs much cooler than the C2D iMac.

  • Moving contents from old iPod to new iPod

    I would like to shift all the contents on my old 30g iPod over to the new 160g I just bought. I haven't kept everything on my iTunes library, so is there a really simple way to do this without losing things? Any help would be appreciated.

    The songs from the old iPod will have to be moved to iTunes, then transferred from there to the new iPod.
    Check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it is a little more involved than other methods.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Another free program is Pod Player.
    SharePod is also freeware.

  • Moving content from old ibook to new macbook

    I am going to trade in my ibook for a smart new macbook but am interested in how to move all my stuff from one mac to another ( Itunes etc ). Is there an easy way to do this ? I run the back up utility to a remote hard drive and wondered if I can simply back everything up and then "restore" to my new macbook ?
    Any advice would be welcomed, thanks.

    Richard,
    I would be careful using the Migration Assistant. It works wonderfully, but even Apple has acknowledged migrating from a PPC Mac to an Intel Mac may cause some software not to transfer completely/successfully.
    If you do data only, you're golden, just beware of the above if you copy everything.
