Pointing web domain from Easily to iWeb blog - what address?

I've published a blog with a .co address and share via Facebook. I've bought the .co and need to point it from Easily to my Mobile Me accept and link. Do I need to use all of the Mobile Me url i.e. http://web.me.com/user name/url.co ?

Display a page on your web.me.com website and copy the URL.
Or enable Personal Domain in your MMe account and use the CNAME feature.

  • A fix to personal web domain name problem between iWeb and GoDaddy

    There are numerous posts about problems with iWeb understanding both your personal name domain with and without the www.prefix. After five days, 25 calls to both Apple and GoDaddy where I was getting much conflicting advice even within each organization, and I experienced many problems such as the site not being found and iWeb asking for password authorization whenever anyone visited the site. The good news is that I was finally able to resolve the problem with these simple steps:
    First, check that your Web site actually exists by going to http://web.mac.com/yourusername
    If that works then you need to set up a forward in GoDaddy.
    In GoDaddy's account manager, make sure that the forwarding address is set to http://web.mac.com/yourusername. This must be the same address that you just checked through your browser. (I also advise you to NOT USE the .ME designation that Apple is moving to. It's not solid yet. .MAC will work for a long time. It's web.mac.com/ that will work).
    Then click on the Total DNS Control and MX Records link.
    This is where my instructions that work differ from many other instructions, but heed my advice and you'll save a lot of time.
    Look in the CNAMES area and make sure that the www host alias points to "@" and not to anything else such as "web.me.com" or "www.mac.com". If you don't have such an entry, then create one by clicking on the "add a new CNAME Record"button. Caution - if you don't use the "@" (at sign) here you WILL run into trouble where your custom domain name will only work WITHOUT a "www." prefix. (While this may not be a problem for your mac friends, most everyone using a PC will think they need to type in a "WWW." and that will cause a problem).
    Then if you wish, you can also go back into your domain forwarding area and click on the masking tab and click to enable masking. This will make your url only show the short personal domain name rather than the very long iWeb mobile me URL appended with your personal domain name.
    Confirm your entry, and then wait anywhere from 20 minutes to four hours or more for the tens of thousands of servers around the world to repopulate those instructions. I was able to see a change take place in minutes where my associate in another state didn't see the change for two hours. Don't worry, just wait.
    If you do this, you should be able to then go to your Web site through either www.YourPersonalDomainName.com or YourPersonalDomainName.com
    Good luck!

    I was finally able to resolve the problem with these simple steps:
    Many people would not be interested in using url forwarding/masking as you suggest to solve this issue, since that makes it impossible to bookmark individual pages of your site. For those who do wish to set the www CNAME to web.mac.com, I think the problem can normally be solved by also setting the @ A Record to 17.250.248.34.

  • Has ANYONE created a web site from scratch with iweb 08 that is stable?

    I have tried all the tricks i have been able to find to convert my old iweb 1.2 site to the new iweb08 software. I have tried deleting plist files, and changing the themes and re-saving. I am about to give up, and have two options
    1. recreate the ENTIRE site from scratch. I am happy to do this, so long as there are people who have done it and their site domain files remain stable.
    or
    2. Go back to iweb 1.2 and save myself hassle.
    Can anyone advise on this?
    To apple : You have treated me like a sucker customer. I love you, but you have spat in my face with this terrible software. it destroys everything it touches. Shame on you for treating us all with disdain.

    Hi damoyoungsf,
    I have managed to recreate my website (www.vnlc.org is the domain name, www.studentgroups.ucla.edu/vnlc is the real address) and fixed the bugs as of yesterday, it took around 6 hours of fiddling but worth it for the new features. I used the watercolor theme, and you can visit the webpage to test its stability. The problems I encountered were:
    1. Blog/Podcast pages didn't convert correctly, the yellow/blue band is missing and the picture frames were missing also, also some of the events had incorrect formatting.
    a. Fix: You're going to have to recreate these pages, when a page has errors after a program update like this, its better to recreate the page again rather than keep stumbling with further little bugs that might pop up in the future.
    2. Links to pages with titles that include the symbols : and - and foreign characters do not work.
    a. I think this is a major area in which iweb08 digressed because I used to be able to use foreign and special characters in my links, but now I can't because it would not link appropriately.
    Every other page seemed to work well, or had minor problem like incorrect font colors which can be remedied without recreating the whole page. I did not have the photo page problems that some other people had, my photo pages rendered perfectly and now has nice new features.
    As a final word, iWeb'08 or rather the whole iLife'08 suite seems to be Beta status just like when Mac OS X first came out. Apple likes throwing at us these problematic new software and wait for the bugs to crop up to fix it. After I first got iWeb'08, I knew it would have major problems but I am hoping further updates would remedy our woes.

  • What are my e-mail addresses if I move domain from Yahoo to iWeb?

    I have been using Yahoo for years and have 2 e-mail addresses associated with my domain there. I want to move my domain to Mobile Me but don't want to lose these addresses. I can't find where this question is answered: I have domain www.gillin.us and [email protected] as one of my e-mail addresses. If I use I iWeb to move my domain, can I set up the same e-mail address and one other with @gillin.us on MobileMe? Thanks

    MobileMe is only of use for publishing personal websites and doesn't have the facility to set up web mail and email forwards.
    If your website is a business one you would be better to use a good commercial hosting service.....
    http://www.iwebforbusiness.com/Tools-Resources/Website-Hosting.html
    I don't blame you for wanting to move away from Yahoo as they really are useless.

  • Pointing a Domain Name at my iWeb Pages

    Hi All
    I am pretty sure I've got the Podcasting thing sussed, apart from the RSS thing which of course good old iweb does for you, my question is this: Can I purchase a domain name of my choosing and then point it at my iWeb pages thereby using the RSS feed that iWeb automatically produces, or is it frowned upon to do such things? My podcasts will be video but nothing dodgy, just car stuff
    Thanks
    A.L.I

    yes, that will work perfectly. if you get a domain, here is how you could "forward" or "point it to" you .mac page:

  • Anyway to allow comments from readers on iWeb blogs when hosted on iPage?, Anyway to allow comments from readers on iWeb blogs when hosted on iPage?

    Since Mobile Me is going away, I moved my iWeb pages to iPage.  I started a blog but it won't allow readers to leave comments.  Help says this feature is only available when hosted on MobileMe but MobileMe is going away!  Does anyone know a way to enable reader comments to an iWeb created blog hosted on iPage?
    Thanks!

    The easiest way to correct your color problem is to upload the Disqus code as an HTML doc and display it in an iframe on your page. This way you can keep the black iWeb page and have the comments with a white background.
    Open  a text editor and paste your code. Export as HTML giving it a name like - comments.html
    Upload this to the root folder on your server in a folder named - Disqus
    The URL for the iframe code will be...
    http://www.domain-name.com/Disqus/comments.html
    This is the code for the HTML Snippet and you can change the height and width to suit your layout...
    <iframe src="http://www.domain-name.com/Disqus/comments.html" frameborder="0" style="height:1000px;width:930px;padding-top:50px" scrolling="yes" allowTransparency="false" ></iframe>
    Note that you need to add an identifier to each file if you want to use several - one for each blog entry.
    var disqus_identifier = '0001';
    var disqus_url = 'URL to the blog page';
    The identifiers can simply be numbers like 0001, 0002, etc
    The alternative is to style your own page if you want your comments section to have a black background. Disqus has a customizing option or you can create your own styles and add them to the head of the comments.html doc or reference a separate stylesheet. Disqus has info and guidelines about styling here...

  • Intermittent connection to domain from remote site.. What is the recommended solution?

    Hello,
    I used to have a separated branch office with its own application/db standalone server, and about 15 users locally configured on that server...
    Recently we implemented a Microwave connection (25 Mbps) between the main and branch office, joined the server of the  branch office as a member server of the main office domain and add users' accounts to the domain. So now remote users have there logon
    and credentials from the DC in the main office but still work on there application/db member server located on the branch office.
    The problem in this design is that when the connection occasionally goes down, users can't work on their application although there server is located on their same LAN, because they can't gain the necessary credentials from the DC/GC on the main site!!!
    Would you please suggest any solution for this problem... do I have to make a local DC in the branch office, or create Child domain, or what?
    PS.. I'm working on Windows 2003 domain
    Thank you all

    Greetings!
    If you are not running low on budget and bandwidth is not a concern, consider implementing an additional domain controller in your branch office and make it as global catalog.
    Regards.

  • EPrint won't print web pages from Windows 8 Microsoft Surface tablet

     ePrint won't print web pages from Windows 8 (x64) Microsoft Surface tablet Any ideas?

    Hello JereTanner,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are trying to print web pages from a Surface tablet. What model of printer are you trying to print to? Also, Is there an error, message, etc, when you try to print? Typically, ePrint is used when printing eMails or forwarding documents / pictures to the printers eMail address, is this how you are trying to print the web page? Since this is a Windows 8 Operating System, you may be able to install full feature software and print that way. When I know more about how you are trying to print, what happens when you try and what printer you are using, I will be able to better help. Cheers,

  • Delete personal domain from iWeb

    now that .mac moved to .me when ever i post a site it publishes to the personal domain that is listed in my profile but i don't want it published there but rather to the automatic url that mac provides (i.e. http://web.mac.com/username/Site...)
    how do i removed a personal domain from my profile?
    i found no preferences within iweb to do this, nor was i able to do it when i log into my mobile me settings (there i see the personal domain but no way to remove it)
    thanks!

    Do you have a domain name that you have set up with iWeb and MobileMe? If you linked that name to just the default MobileMe URL, http://web.mac.com/username/, then any new site that is published will become the default that the domain name sends you to. You need to point the domain name to the specific site, http://web.mac.com/username/yoursite_foldername/index.html, in order to isolate the other sites from your domain name.

  • Can you create an iWeb domain from an iWeb sight?

    What happens if the computer you are using to create the iWeb crashes? Your iWeb page is still out there but the domain in Application Support/iWeb is now gone. Can I recreate that from the original site? I feel kind of dumb creating a whole new site that is still active.
    This first came up because we run mobile accounts in our school. I only sync the desktop and documents folders. Then when a student moved to a new computer, the domain was not there. Or at least that is what I discovered. What they saw was when they opened iWeb, all the work they just did was gone. It wanted to start over. Even though what they had done prior was still on the web.
    I am getting ready to show some of my teachers iWeb. I don't want them to have this same problem. Their sites may be quite extensive. And that much work to go lost would be a shame.

    Hi Brian,
    iWeb's Domain file is kept in the user's Home folder Library:
    Users/username/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain
    I think the easiest thing to do in your situation when you're finished working is just copy the Domain file to a usb flash thumb drive. Then you have your work with you and you can open and edit your site(s) from any machine running the same version of iWeb.
    Remember also that flash drives can/will fail at some point. If you are building large sites it's not a bad idea to burn a copy of the Domain to a DVD now and then.

  • How to publish a BOOK from iWeb blog

    During 2011 I kept a Blog in iWeb on me.com when my little 7 year old daughter was suffering from liver cancer. the Blog was read and commented by many people. I have been her Living Donor for the liver, and so far she is a "survivor" with sparks in her eys that represent "life".
    We have had a lot of support from people that are close to us and I want to thank them all by "publishing" a book from the blog. I kept it on my Macbook wich also still has iWeb on it. I a 'just a user' and not a freak, so I do not have a clue if this is possible to do or just Wishfull thinking. I presume you can never get back to me.com, so the ' web counter' as well as 'feed back' might have been lost, but I sure want to publish this blog in a book. It would be a great gift to thos who supported us and other people that go through this as well, as well as for my little girl Joy, so when she is older she knows what she has been going throug. Is there anyone that could support in the steps I need to undertake to get this done?

    To give you an idea what is possible, I used Chrome on my iPad and printed a webpage as pdf to Google Drive with Google Cloudprinter.
    This is the webpage :
    http://www.wyodor.net/mfi/cultureclub/Blog/Blog.html
    This is the result :

  • Using Facebook Comments for iWeb Blog (non mobile me domain)

    Upon moving from a mobileme hosted iWeb created blog to a personal domain, I obviously lost ability to use iWeb commenting. That in-of-itself was frustrating, so I've been scouting out new possibilities. Some have recommended IntenseDebate and others, but I'm curious if anyone has had luck using Facebook Comments? http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/comments
    I've been able to use the Facebook Like HTML as a Widget not a problem, but haven't been able to get Comments to work.
    www.kellerowski.com
    Thanks in advance!

    That is because it is a plugin and plugins won't work with iWeb as far as I am aware.
    I would try http://www.intensedebate.com. It is very easy to set up and it works and you will be notified by e-mail every time somebody posts a comment. I use IntenseDebate on my own site and it works very well for me.
    Your other alternative of course is to ditch the iWeb blog and create a blog link to a blog created in WordPress - you can use http://www.wordpress.org too if you uploading to another host, so you will then have www.domain.com/Blog.

  • Restoring iweb domain from published site?

    I totally gaffed and didn't copy over my domain file from my old iweb application preferences. I just got a new intel imac and opened iweb and lo and behold my site wasn't there. I have it published to my .mac account and I can copy the web site files over from my idisk. Is there anyway I can use these files to get iweb to construct my domain and all its pages again so that I can edit them? I unfortunately don't have any way of retrieving my old domain file. If this isn't possible, can anyone recommend the least painful way of getting there?
    Thanks!

    Kevin...
    unfortunatly.. if you don't have access to the old domain file then it's not looking good.
    The best way for you to rebuild your site is to cut and paste them from your idisk into a new templet in iWeb.
    I did it early on with my site and it took less time than you think... a couple of hours.
    Sorry for the bad news.

  • Can I point a domain name at my web.mac account?

    Hi there, first time poster.
    I was just wondering if there was a way for one to point a domain name to a site that I've built on iweb? And if it is possible, how to find out the information that I would need to point the domain name the web.mac account?
    thanks in advanced.

    Its easy, usually all you have to do is look for "domain name forwarding" with your provider and your in as we say in Australia. Who is your provider?
