Publishing a Podcast to a NON .MAC account?

I searched the archieves but could not find an answer on this one. I recently moved my site from .MAC to another server. Everything is working except my Podcast. Anyidea why? I did check that the Podcast Folder did get FTP but it does not work.
Here is a the link:
http://thereconsulting.com/Podcast/13D73BC0-F523-4635-9843-4C301D91084C.html
Does anyone have any ideas?
Cheers,
Rick

The root
directory looks pretty much like you described except
that the index.html is in the thereconsulting folder,
not in the root.
This is the issue. Yes, there is an "index.html" file inside the "thereconsulting" sitefolder, but the RSS feed that iWeb generates actually is expecting "thereconsulting" to be one of the subdirectories of your domain, which means that you must have an "outer" index.html file.
In my iWeb application I manage about 8 websites, so
the index.html that is in the root folder of my iWeb
is not the one related to thereconsulting.
I think I am understanding your problem a little better from this statement now. Are all of your 8 websites published to your domain or do you keep them published in separate places? Anyways, for the purpose of your "thereconsulting" site, when you do the "Publish to Folder" action, "thereconsulting" must be the default site so that the appropriate "outer" index.html file is generated. Then you must upload this "outer" index.html file along with the "thereconsuling" folder to your domain root directory. (Also don't forget to put in "http://www.thereconsulting.com" into the URL box for the purposes of the feed generation). THEN your feed should work perfectly.
I know it's a lot of work to go through, but iWeb really has a very rigid structure, and in order to get things working correctly it's important to play within this structure.
Sorry it took so long for me to reply. I missed your original followup.

Podcasts don't play m4a files on a non .mac account.

So here is the deal I created a podcast site using iweb. Saved to a folder and uploaded it to www.damntourist.com/testcast
I didn't change anything. Just created it and ftp'd to the web.
If you click on the sample podcast, it doesn't load. Seems that mp4 and m4a files do not work on non .mac accounts.
You can also check out www.damntourist.com/audio/rss.xml
This is for another test that I did. Here you will see that the m4a or mp4 files can not be downloaded but the mp3 files can. All of these files are in the same folder.
The files do play just fine from my hard drive in itunes, on my ipod and through quicktime.
Does anyone know why m4a and mp4 files can be played and downloaded from a .mac account but not another server.
I don't mind doing things a little differently. I also don't mind working with my hosting company to make changes to their server.
I have spoken with the Apple Genius Bar folks and they don't have answers.
Is this enough information?
thank you for your help,
-bill

You bet it can't play what it can't find. Problem is, the file is right where the code says it is. Everything is in place. That is what I am talking about. The files are there. The code points to the right place and yet something doesn't work. I even had Apple Genius staff confirm file structure and naming.
It can't play what it can't find:

I broke the link (added a space) to keep this from
stretching this page.
The .mp4 file isn't on the server or is named
different than the HTML code.

Can we have multiple Podcasts with the same Mac Account?

Hi all,
Can we have multiple Podcasts with the same Mac Account?
For example, I have a single .MAC account and create a website with multiple Podcast pages...or within iWeb I create multiple sites, and each has a podcast.
Is there a problem?

Its not possible for the same development object. Only 1 person can access an object at a time and if mutiple users modify an object new TASKs are created under the same TRANSPORT.
Only after releasing the tr you can create a new tr on the same object.

Publish web gallery to a different .mac account

Hi Friends.
Can I publish web galleries to both of my .mac accounts from the same Mac?
It seems like I might have to create a different user account on the MAc itself and make the other .mac account the default for that different user. I would really rather not do that, as I have one iPhoto library with all of my photos for every aspect of my life and work.
Thanks for any guidance.

To make is more convenient to do that you could create a second user account, set it up for the other .Mac account and publish from there. You could either use two separate libraries or put your library on an external HD so both account could use it without ownership/permissions issues.
You can also set up fast user switching so you wouldn't have to log out of one account to get to the other.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

I'm trying to publish a web site through my .Mac account using a UK2 domain

I've registered a domain through UK2 and am trying to publish this through my .Mac account. I've created a CNAME entry to redirect the domain to apple but the site is still not live! Can anyone help please?

How to publish from iWeb to two different .mac accounts

my household has two separate .macs account and we want to publish from iWeb to the two different accounts which I cannot figure out. thanks

I discovered I could duplicate Domain.sites2 (~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2). I named one "Domain de.sites2", and the other "Domain daru.sites2". Then I opened daru's site and deleted de's, then I opened de's and deleted daru's, and I have two separate sites (with aliases in the dock) that I presume I'll be able to upload separately. Once I get .Mac sub groups created...
If it works, it saves the hassle of creating other user accounts, since only my wife and I use the computer. Right now, .Mac is telling me I can't create a sub account in my wife's name because she already has a .Mac ID (and a two month free trial account she had to agree to, to join the group) for a group site I manage. I don't think she ought to be required to have a separate identity every time she logs into .Mac.

IWeb Publishing error: "Can't connect to .mac account"

I have been able to publish fine until three days ago. I wait for my movies to be created then get a dreaded " Cannot connect to .mac account. Check internet connection. Try again later. I can log in to access my idisk, get e-mail, and generally do everything else. Why suddenly can't I publish? I'm using OS 10.4.10 and ilife'08. Thanks

I WAS a happy iWeb camper until two days ago. When I tried to add a page to my site today, it told me I was out of space, and to change my configuration, dump some files, or purchase additional storage. I dumped some pages that broke my heart to get rid of, published my iWeb to a file, then did a "get info" check - I'm only using 4.4 GB of space, I reset my mail to 30 MB, and it still tells me I'm out of space. The last time when I published the whole site I got the message that it could not connect to .mac account, to check my internet connection and try again. I'm just totally aggravated over this now. I spent a lot of time on the pages I got rid of for no apparent good reason, and still can't publish my new page. After all the aggravation when I installed Leopard on the 24" aluminum iMac, I thought I'd have smooth sailing now that they resolved the freezing problem. As Waylon Jennings said in his song, WRONG! Sure hope someone comes up with a fix for this one. Thanks, Deb

Mail - alias non-Mac account

We have an account with a provider (non-Mac) and 1 alias. In Mail, I have addded the alias to the e-mail address field as per the instructions. When I send out e-mails from the alias, the receiver does not see the alias, but the main account name. When I try to add another POP-account, I get stuck under username and login-name because it does not accept the same entries as for the main account, while that is all the provider accepts. Mail coming in works fine. How can I solve this?
Thanks for helping me out.

You cannot access a .Mac account alias as a separate account in Mail.
The following was copied from Mail Help:
If you have a .Mac account, you can send and receive email using .Mac email aliases. An email alias is an alternate email address for your .Mac account.
To send a message from a .Mac email alias:
Choose File > New Message to open a compose message window.
Click the Account pop-up menu and choose the email alias.
When you send the message, it will appear to come from your email alias.
Messages addressed to your .Mac email alias will arrive in your .Mac account inbox.
To set up a .Mac email alias, choose Mail > Preferences and click Accounts. Select your .Mac account and click Account Information. Click Edit Email Aliases to go to the .Mac website. Log into your account. Click Accounts and then, in the Email Aliases section, click Create Alias (if none exist yet) or click the Add button (if at least one exists already). Enter a name for the alias and click Create Alias. The alias will then be available in the Account pop-up menu in new message windows.
If the Account pop-up menu doesn't appear in the compose message window, click the Action menu in the lower-left corner of the message header and choose Customize. Select the checkbox next to Account and click OK.

Can I publish a site to a non-.mac domain?

I am a real new mac user, less than a week. I just got a power mac G4. I bought iLife, and set up a web site. I have had my own domain for a few years now. I published my site to my .mac account, and pointed my domain to it. The domain is www.hanklambert.com. My question is can I also create sites for others who have their own domains (my mother) and publish it directly to her hosting domain? If so, where can I find out how to do that.
Thanks in advance,

Yes, you can. But to keep things simple, I would suggest that you create multiple accounts on your computer to publish the different sites. That way you don't run into issues with two or more sites in the same Domain file, switching Domain files, etc.
Just create a new login account to your computer...say, for your Grandma's site. Open up iWeb there and you should see a blank slate. Once you have her site designed, just publish to her .Mac account or "publish to a folder" and you can FTP it to her webhost if she doesn't have .Mac.
The whole point is to keep your site separate from other sites that you might design. The easiest thing would be to have a different user account for each site if you are going to be administering these sites regularly.

Turning Red Page Icons to Blue w/ Non .Mac account?

The only time the pages changed from red to blue was when published to a .Mac account. I no longer use .Mac and when I publish to a folder the red page icons remain red, so I have no idea which pages have current changes which need uploaded to the server. If you don't use .Mac, how do you make the red page icons turn blue?

That's kinda my point - publishing to a folder 'should' do the same. It's easy for the app to check and see if there is a .Mac account (which it already does). If no .Mac account, then publishing to a folder should turn the pages from red to blue.

Wants to publish to a different owner's .mac account

I have designed 2 iWeb sites, one for an artist, and one for a vacation rental. Each owner has their own individual mac.com account.
I am opening the iWeb sites individually for updating by double clicking their icon, rather than opening the iWeb app.
At the bottom of the iWeb page for the vacation rental, the mac.com address for the artist appears, rather than the mac.com address for the vacation rental.
When I want to publish the vacation rental site to mac.com, "FILE/Publish to .Mac" is greyed out, and my only choice is "publish all to Mac.com.
Each iWeb site file is stored in a different place. Why doesn't the mac. com address at the bottom of the vacation rental page match it's owner, and how can I change that?

What you can try is going to System Preferences and logging in with false info to try and clear the system and then logging in again - try your MobileMe account details first and if successful try hers again and see if it works that time.
The only way you will sort this out is by her rememberingw hat her MMe username and password are so that you can log into her account and publish the site. The only other way is to contact Apple to try and get the correct username and password. You could just set up a new account of course, but more money!
The only way that you can sort out the problem with publishing the site is to be able to log into her MMe account so that the website is published under the correct account. If you don't have the correct username and password you can't do this.

Using iWeb to publish to a non mac account

I guess the question is in the subject.
I'm just wondering if it is possible to use iWeb to create your website, but then send it to a different domain/server?

nuorder72,
Welcome to the discussions.
Easily done. Create a new folder on your desktop, and name it for your site. From the file menu in iWeb, choose File/Publish to a folder..., and select this new folder. iWeb will deliever your site, in it's own folder, and the index.html file needed for the site. You will upload both of these as they are to your server, using an ftp client.
Some good tips and more details on this can be found in these notes by Tom Gewecke.

Publishing to non .mac account problem

Hi
HELP!
I think I have bitten off more than I can chew....
Having fallen in love with iWeb I took the plunge and published
the website I created to my Partners site (as the iWeb one I wrote was 100% better than his)
I used 'Easy Iweb Publisher' to upload the site
his domain is www.st-erasmus.com
All I get is blank white screen. In the public_html folder there looks like the files I uploaded are sitting there.......
any suggestions?

You'll have to check with your host as to where exactly the files need to be uploaded. But typing in your domain results in the white screen as you mentioned, resolved to a file called "HOME.html". This should give you a clue as to where to publish. Wherever this "HOME.html" file lives is probably the same place you want to publish. Then you'll have to find out where there is another index.html file redirecting to this file, as you'll want to replace or at least edit this file too.

Best way to publish multiple sites without a .mac account?

Hi, all you mac geniuses out there!
So, I have a mac and a .mac membership and iweb. I use and love all of them. I also have a business in which I am about to incorporate the service of designing websites for various individuals. I would love to be able to use iweb for this. However, I can't put it all on my .mac account. So, my questions are the following:
1. Do I charge people extra and buy them a .mac account so they have their own idisk even though they won't need the e-mail and other .mac features?
2. Can I create a website for them on iweb, buy a domain name for them through godaddy or somewhere, publish to a folder, and then upload to a separate hosting space (like through godaddy or somewhere)? And if that's the case, what is the best (and easiest) place to host a site and how exactly does one go about uploading the site once it's published to a folder? Will it still look like the iweb layout?
3. Any better suggestions?
Thanks!
Lisa

1. Do I charge people extra and buy them a .mac
account so they have their own idisk even though they
won't need the e-mail and other .mac features?
I don't think this would be necessary...
2. Can I create a website for them on iweb, buy a
domain name for them through godaddy or somewhere,
publish to a folder, and then upload to a separate
hosting space...
Yes. The best thing for you to do would be to get familiar with a program called "iWebSites" ( http://mistergregg.com/cocoadrillosoftware/ ). I'm sure you don't want your personal .Mac website to be mixed in with your client websites. In addition, you will appreciate the ability to be able to publish your various websites INDEPENDENTLY of one another, so that you only publish your personal site to your .Mac account and your client sites individually as needed. iWebSites helps you to create separate Domain files for iWeb so that each website can "live" in its own space and be edited and published separate from every other site.
But yes, as far as your client websites go, prepare for a new site with iWebSites, design the site in iWeb, then "Publish to Folder" and then register and upload to the appropriate domain name server directory. I think this would be a slick way to run your business....full service, right?
Let me know if you have any other questions.

Publishing to a non .mac site

Hi, is there a step by step procedure to publish a site to a non .mac host?
Thanks

I changed the name, uploaded the folder, and still
nothing.
When you look at your web space with your ftp program, you should see two items: index.html and a folder called Kiiskakuna. Do you?
When I hit publish,
it automatically publishes to iMac. I have to use
Cyberduck to upload to the other server. Is this
correct?
Yes. You do not hit publish, you use the menu item to publish to a folder. It is a good idea to select your desktop as the place to publish to so you don't get mixed up. After publishing that way, you should see two items on your desktop, index.html and a folder called Kiiskakuna. You use Cyberduck to upload these to your web space.
Right now it is clear that there is no index.html in your web space, so you must not have uploaded that. It must be outside the folder Kiiskakuna and it must be the one that iWeb created outside the folder Kiiskakuna. There is another one inside the folder, but that and everything else there should get uploaded automatically when you upload the folder.
What is the name of the topmost page of your site inside the iWeb app?
