No joy with Personal Domain

Hi,
4 days ago I changed the CNAME for my domain to web.mac.com. - including the "www" and "*" records...and set my domain in .mac's personal domain settings. I uploaded a site to .mac a few days before... But nothing's happening when i try my domain."Not Found
The requested URL / was not found on this server."
Have i stupidly left anything out?
thanks!

yeah!

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

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.

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.

Help with personal domain and GoDaddy

I have created a website using iWeb.
I have added my personal domain to my .mac account
I have changed the www CNAME to point to web.mac.com (at GoDaddy)
If I enter www.mydomainname.com to takes me to my parked site.
If I enter mydomainname.com (without www)it takes me to my website.
Any ideas on why this is happening and how to fix it?

I have been trying for the last week and a half to put my iWeb on Godaddy and am having a terrible time. How did you do it???????? love, Mary
If you are still talking about uploading to Godaddy via FTP, please respond in your earlier thread.

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.

Remote access/desktop with personal domain

Just setup whs 2012 essentials r2, everything works fine so far except one thing. I setup the microsoft domain xxx.remotewebaccess.com everything works on there including the dashboard and remote desktop from outside my network. Then i purchase my own
.us domain name from domain.com, and i am url forwarding the new domain to my xxx.remotewebaccess.com, here is where the issue starts, i get the dashboard just fine, but when i go to remote desktop from my purchased domain, it does not work, it as if the url
forward part is not working from my domain provider. Is there any additional settings i need to add or delete? for the record the reason i chose to url forward is because i have a dynamic IP and the microsoft domain name keeps the ip updated.

Hi,
Did you purchase the DNS dynamic update protocol service from your domain name service provider? DNS dynamic update protocol can let anyone on the Internet gain access to resources on a local network when the IP address of that network is constantly changing.
In addition, why don't you set up the domain name automatically and choose a domain name service provider that supports the domain name extension that you want to use in Remote Web access?

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.

Personal Domains and Email Accounts

I have a client that wants to use personal domain names and also wants to use email addresses with these domains. Do we need to set him up and have the website point to his .mac pages and then have the email set up on another server? Can you create email accounts to work with personal domains through .Mac?
Holla at me and let me know!!!

Problem with iWeb after associating a personal domain name with my MobileMe

I think I did this by the book. I associated my personal domain name with my MobileMe account, then changed the CName pointer at GoDaddy to MobileMe (MM), then went back to MM and hit 'Done'. iWeb now lists my MM account as 'My account name (personal domain name). It took a little while for the DNS pointer to propogate, but now I can go to a browser, type in my personal domain name, and MM delivers my iWeb website as I wanted it to, apparently from my domain, not web.me.com. The problem is, as soon as the DNS propogated, MM delivers my MM site OK, but iWeb can't find the files for it anymore. All my pages immediately went red (unpublished) when I tried to update the site, and any attempt to Publish gives me this error "iWeb couldn’t connect to MobileMe. Make sure your Internet connection works and try again." I'm cable connected to an ADSL router, and Airport connected to a cable router, and neither service has dropped out. I've rebooted, and retried, and the website is up under my own domain, so GoDaddy and MM both got it right. What did I do wrong? Thanks, someone... anyone?

This is now sort of resolved, but not very satisfactorily. One of the trainers at my local Appple Store found an old support issue in the archives going back to 2008, which blamed security settings for update problems. Coincidental with associating MobileMe with my personal domain, I had checked the privacy box and added an ID and PW to the site. That was the problem, not the personal domain, that was preventing iWeb from finding my MM account. Uncheck that box and my site happily updates. Of course, now I have a site that I cannot make private. In this case, not a show-stopper, but disappointing. I have reported it as a bug in the latest version of iWeb. Thanks for your help.

How to use iPhoto web gallery with iWeb & personal domain name

So, another question about iWeb 08:
I've set up my site to use a personal domain name, like www.mypersonaldomain.com. I've configured everything with my DNS settings so that it actually points to my iWeb site, and I'm happy about that.
However, I've imported a few iPhoto '08 web galleries into my site, but when I browse to them by going to www.mypersonaldomain.com and clicking on the link for my gallery, it goes to a URL that actually shows my .mac account, i.e. gallery.mac.com/sockdaddy/gallery1/photo.jpg
Is there any way to have the web galleries that I'm using become a more transparent part of my iWeb site, and use my personal domain?

I've never done this on .Mac but I do use this on my server. I don't see why it wouldn't work.
In iPhoto select your web gallery and in the "file" menu select "export" and then "Web Page".
Select your options and click "Export" to the desktop.
There are now 4 folders and an index.html file.
Change the name of the index file to whatever you want to call the page e.g WebGallery.html
Now go to Finder/Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites and open your website folder.
Drag and drop the 4 folders and the html file from your desktop into this.
Create a link to this from your website in the "link" inspector and choose "external page".
The URL for the link will be the same as any other page on your site except WebGallery is substituted for the page name.
If you check the "open link in new window" you won't have to worry about the fact that you don't have a link back to your site from the WebGallery page.

Quick Question - Setting up Personal Domain with godaddy

Hi there
Just a quick question to make sure I've done this correctly?
Ok, I've published my iWeb website.
I've purchased a personal domain with godaddy.
I've set up the personal domain in my mobile me account.
I then logged into my godaddy account and went to 'Total DNS Control and MX Records'
I changed the following under CNAME (Aliases)
www web.me.com 1 Hour
and then added a new CNAME Record
www.*******.com web.me.com 1 Hour
Have I done this all correctly?
Will it take a few hours to take effect?
Anything else I need to consider?
Thanks for reading.
Ross

CNAME settings can take up to 24 hours to take effect.
As long as you have forwarded your domain name to web.me.com, then it should be okay.
