Problems overwriting when I publish to a folder

When I publish to a folder the updated content of my website I get an error message like "files can be damaged or you don´t have enough privileges to do this". I have to delete all the folder and publish it again in a new folder.
Does anyone know how to solve it?
Thank´s

Publishing to a folder is all or nothing.
Either say yes to replace the folder or publish to another location and only replace the page (including the folder that's used by that page) you updated.
As an added note, you should never put custom stuff in such a folder after publishing.

  • IWeb slideshow giving a 404 error when I publish to a folder

    When I publish to a folder and post to my Verizon web space I get a 404 (not found) error on slideshows. I uploaded the same site to my office staging server and it works fine (see test link below) so it must be a problem with Verizon but I can't figure out what. I tried different file names, even a test page with just one image, but no luck. Any thoughts?

    Did you use an ftp program to upload to Verizon? Can you verify that you have the same files and structure on both servers? I'm wondering if something got left out in the Verizon space.

  • "Search" is missing when i publish to a folder

    I've been looking for the answer for 2 days, but no one seems have symptoms like mine.
    anyhow...
    when i publish to a folder, everything works fine including RSS subscribe but, search field is gone in the blog and podcast pages.
    everything else is there on the place, except missing search field.
    So, i registered .Mac 60 days free and it's working on .Mac. But in local folder and on my non .Mac server it doesn't show up.
    I don't want to buy .Mac for me it's not worth. and i just bought non .mac server just two days ago.
    PLEASE HELP!!!
    and if you have any idea using comment on blog for non .mac server, please let me know. i use iComment and working well. but it doesnt' look good

    Blog Search is a feature only enabled when publishing to .Mac. If you publish to a folder, the search won't publish. It's in the iWeb Help.

  • When publishing to a folder page looks awful once uploaded. Can anyone help

    Hi,
    I've read through at least 30 pages on this forum and seem to be unable to find something to help me remedy my problem.
    I made a really simple site in iWEB. When I publish to a folder and click the "visit this site now" button, everything looks perfect. However, once I upload the site, using Fetch, the site looks awful. The Arial font is replaced by something else. The "made on a mac" image disappears. The navbar is non existent, and none of my other pages display properly (when I manually enter there addresses).
    I read a previous post about changing my Fetch settings so that data uploads in binary (raw) form and did that. I tried changing text-encoding in my browser to UTF-8, but that did not help either.
    I've cleared the folder on my home computer a number of times and tried republishing and re-uploading and that does not help. I've tried viewing the page in Safari, Mozilla, and Explorer, and it looks terrible in all 3. The site is:
    http://web.syr.edu/~ljames
    If someone can help me I'd greatly appreciate it. If you need any further info from me, please let me know and I'll do what I can to assist. Thanks.

    You have changed the permissions (or they are incorrect) on your home_files directory. I get a forbidden message when trying to access that directory. The sylesheet (css) and other files there dictate how the home page is diplayed. Make sure that all the permissions on the directories for your site are set correctly.

  • Finder runs near 100% cpu when I open a specific folder.

    I noticed my mac pro battery went to the red zone in under two hours, it normally goes all day. I checked activity monitor and it showed finder using 97% cpu.
    To keep it short, I discovered there's a problem only when I have a specific folder open. I don't have to be accessing the folder, finder goes near 100% anytime this folder is open, even when there are no other apps running. It's a relatively large folder - about 3300 items counting all files and subfolders. Is there a maximum size finder can handle under snow leopard or, perhaps, on an intel processor? I tried moving half the items to another folder and the problem seemed to stop. This isn't a good solution for me, however, as I need all the files located together.
    There is no problem with this folder on my good old power pc running 10.4, so I'm processing it there for the time being.
    HELP? Thanks.

    No, info is not checked, nor is arrange by nor show icon. Thanks anyway.
    However, curiously, if I change view from icon to list, finder cpu % drops down to near zero. Change view back to icon, and finder goes crazy again. Maybe this'll mean something to someone?
    Meanwhile, I can now use that folder, just have to remember to set it to list view.

  • Problems when I publish

    Hi!
    I use Iweb but now when I try to publish it says unknown problem.
    I recently had to replace my harddrive and I used an external harddrive for a complete backup. So in 10 min the computer was up and running again.
    Everything seams to work except this.
    Does anyone know what I can do?
    Would be very greatful.
    Take care.

    Lisa,
    The error you are receiving, as you probably suspect, is meaningless. I think it's a default error message that results from iWeb, using WebDav, failing to keep a consistent upload "relationship" with the .Mac server as it publishes. Right now, the .Mac servers are taking all they can, with iWeb 2.0's release. I personally have never received publish errors since I began using 1.0 shortly after it's release--but I do now. When I try to publish, I get the same series of error messages each time, almost as if iWeb/.Mac "runs through the list" before it will grant a successful upload of the site. Immediately upon receiving the error message, I go to File/Publish to .Mac and do it again. In my case, persistence pays off.
    If you don't mind a little 'aggravating leg work', here's a way to publish the site with no error messages.
    From the file menu in iWeb, use the Publish to a folder command and choose your Desktop as the folder location. iWeb will deliver your site in a neat little folder on your Desktop, named for your site, and an index.html file beneath it. Since you have already published to .Mac successfully, disregard the index.html file; it already exists on the server.
    Now open a window in the Finder, and navigate to the iWeb folder location on your iDisk, following this path:
    (1.1.2)
    Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites/iWeb/DropYourFolderHere
    (2.0)
    Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites/DropYourFolderHere
    Click yes for replace in the dropdown window.
    Your site will be uploaded at about the same speed (maybe a little longer than a "first time publish") as a normal publish from iWeb, and with no publish errors.
    Post back if you run into difficulties and I'll give all the help that I can.

  • IWeb header does not retain its altered width when publishing to a folder

    I already had assistance to widen the web page header, and thought the problem was solved as below:
    I want to use Watercolor template in iWeb 3.0.4 but when I widen the page the full image does not follow.  Is there anything that can be done?
    iMac 7,1 Intel Core 2 Duo, Mac OS X (10.6.8), 2.4Ghz
    This solved my question by Roddy  on Apr 6, 2012 1:04 PM 
    If, for example, you mean the header background image you would need to go into the iWeb package contents and replace the image with a wider one.
    Here's an example of a page that's the "standard" 980 px wide instead of the iWeb default of 700px.
    Control click the iWeb application and select "Show Package Contents"
    Drill down through Contents/Resources/Themes
    Control click  "Watercolor.webtheme" and "Show Package Contents"
    Open the "Shared" folder to get the image
    I used EasyCrop to crop and resize the image to 980px X 90px and replaced the original with this wider one.
    However, when I publish the site to a folder, the old size is retained.  I have created new pages using the new enlarged header, but alas it is not retained when I publish.
    I have noticed the privileges of the altered file have changed. Originally it was assigned to be read by Wheel. But as soon as the file is altered, Wheel no longer exists.  Could this be the problem?  Is there a work around?
    Thanks

    Is there a work around?
    you can change it with javascript:

    copy the code in my page.
    add an html snippet to your page, paste in the code, click apply button.

  • FTP publishes to nested folder, problems ensue

    Hi,
    I'm trying to publish my iWeb site to a domain hosted on my university's server, and have made a successful test connection to that server, but when I publish the site to that server, it ends up in a nested folder, which my school's server doesn't allow read access to for the general public. I need for iWeb to publish its pages directly into the directory I provided for the FTP path. Does anybody know how to do this?

    One of the problems with the iWeb FTP is that it uploads the whole folder created by iWeb and this creates a sub directory which, in your case, you don't want.
    Publish your site to a local folder and upload the contents of the folder and not the folder itself.
    If you need an FTP app get the freeware Cyberduck here.....

  • When I publish my site on one specific page where i've added {tag_pagecontent} I get the error:Some files on the server may be missing or incorrect. Clear browser cache and try again. If the problem persists please contact website author.

    I'm trying to get a blog module going, I've even deleted the html insert bog with the tag in and re-published which then I don't get the error but as a result no blog either. But then I add the tag in again and publish the error comes back. I've used the dev console and it says that my musicians sample.css is out of date but why is it only out of date when I add in html to my muse site?
    HELP!!!! I've searched other threads and to no avail I'm publishing so no direct ftp going on. the only thing I changed in business catalyst was the module stylesheet in order to style the blog. I've tried uploading and replacing all files nothing seems to work. the site is here:
    http://www.musicstudentsforhire.co.uk/musicians-samples.html
    It's only this page as it has the blog on. Also I've noticed when I've re-published occasionally it will show the mobile version on my desktop and not the desktop version??? no idea why that's happening so I've had to turn that off. any explanation on why that is happening would also be much appreciated.

    I haven't received an answer as of yet, I'll post t on here when I do. I de-activated the mobile site because it's my clients site so he needs it to be operational during the day. I hope someone gives me an answer soon.

  • A magazine's app on my iPad has stopped working.  When I open the Newsstand folder and click on the app, the screen dims briefly, then returns to the Newsstand folder. The other app in my Newsstand folder (Wall Street Journal) opens without any problem.

    A magazine's app on my iPad has stopped working.  When I open the Newsstand folder and click on the app, the screen dims briefly, then returns to the Newsstand folder. The other app in my Newsstand folder (Wall Street Journal) opens without any problem, and this magazine's app opens just fine on my wife's iPad.
    I have deleted the app and reinstalled it from the Apple store and that makes no difference.  I have also done a hard reboot on my iPad with no result.
    Any thoughts about what might be wrong? 

    Hey everyone in Apple world!
    I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP!  Yessssss!!!
    I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process.  Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal.  No flashing yellow screen anymore!!   
    (Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
    Let me know if this works for you!

  • The problem is when we create and then publish to ibooks review it can not be shown completely. How can I solve this problem?

    The problem is when we create and then publish to ibooks review it can not be shown completely. How can I solve this problem?

    If you are saying, that you published the book to  the iBooks review team and cannot be seem in the store.
    Use your iTunes Connect account > Manage your Books to check on its status. It takes time so you need to allow a few days.
    If its a problems viewing on your iPad Follow  the above advice and another option is is export your  book, open iBooks on your  Mac and drag the  book into  iBooks.
    You can iTunes > add to libray and sync to your iPad.

  • Hyperlinks not opening when site published to folder... suggestions please!

    I have published an iWeb site to a folder so I can burn the contents onto DVD for students, rather than putting it out on the www.
    A PDF file I have hyperlinked to opens fine when I visit the site. A powerpoint show and a word doc however do not. When those hyperlinks are clicked, it opens the folder that it is published to, with the correct file in it, and with that file highlighted. This needs to be clicked on to open the file. How can I get the files to open as soon as the hyperlink is clicked?
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    You can't unless you publish your site to either MobileMe or a server. Your students will probably not be able to open the files that you have linked to anyway if you burn your site to a DVD, as if you have published your site to a folder, then all your files will be on your hard drive and not on a server, as is the case if you had published your site.
    With all links to files, if you publish your site to a server, then all the relevant files are uploaded to your server and this is not the case if you publish to a local folder - this is where your files are and the links are created to where your documents are on your computer. If you want the files too, then you need to ensure that you burn those to a DVD.
    Why not publish your site to the web as was intended. Publishing to a folder is only really meant as a way of checking out what your site looks like before publishing or for uploading purposes.

  • I have problem when update to belle the folder of ...

    I have problem when update to belle the folder of games disappear??  c7
    I need to solve ??? Plus

    Do you mean that pink folder w/ the controller icon on it?  I lost that too on my N8.  Actually, lost all of the folders that came with Anna like Applications & Music.  Wish I could get them back as now I can only make the generic yellow folder which isn't as aesthetically appeasing.
    However, reading articles on Belle there was a picture of a Belle N8 with the games folder shortcut on the homescreen - so maybe it still exists & I just cannot find it.
    Good luck & I'll let you know if I figure this out.

  • Some page links not working when I publish iweb site to desktop folder?

    I just created a photo website using iweb. All the links to pages, etc. work fine in the programme but when I go to publish it to folder to check it on a web page some of the page links don't work?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    - Ricky

    Even though you have deactivated the iWeb navigation menu, the navigation layer still exists and is blocking your custom links. Open the Inspector Page tab and try changing the value for Header Height to zero. See if this does anything for you. If not, then try increasing the Header Height value incrementally. This pushes the navigation layer down your page and maybe out of the way of your custom links.
    Of course, there is also the question of whether you custom links are placed on the page as a header element or as a regular page element. You can put elements into the header or footer layers by holding down the Apple key while dragging the elements until you see the header/footer outline highlight in blue.
    If your custom links are header elements, then increasing the header height to push the navigation layer down will probably help. If your custom links are page elements, then decreasing the header height to zero might be more likely to help.

  • When I publish to folder, the 'blank' pages are a mess

    When I 'publish to folder' everything is fine, except for the 'blank' pages.
    I've put lots of word on the blank pages, and underlined, done the letters in different colours etc. But on the published blank pages, they're a mess. The words are all different sizes and colours, loads of letters are underlined, they're all over the place.
    On the original pages, I have neat paragraphs, it looks all tidy, all laid out nicely.
    Why does this happen? It's driving me nuts!
    Please help!

    Blank pages are for doing anything you want. Add text, images etc and put them anywhere.
    I always start from a blank "Black" or "White template and never use any other theme.
    For web safe colors, open the color window in any application and go to the swatches icon at the top - that's the middle icon. Click on Palette: and select "Web Safe Colors.
    This page will give you a better idea....

    This site is made from blank pages and doesn't use the default iWeb navigation as it is built in sections and all the individual ones are reached from the main menu via external links.
