Publishing Dreamweaver page through iWeb?

I have a website that I've designed through Dreamweaver. I actually have designed the basic look - is there an easy way to past the html into iWeb so that I can use the desgin/layout I have come up with?
Thanks

How do you publish your own HTML with iDisk?
You just stick it in iDisk/Sites and use the url

I updated to os x 10.8.5 today and now I cannot publish changes to my web page through iweb. iweb crashes every time I try to publish

I updated to os x 10.8.5 today and now I cannot publish changes to my web page through iweb. iweb crashes every time I try to publish

First do the following:
1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
Next, in Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

Problem publishing Photo page with iWeb 08

Hello,
I have a problem when publishing photo pages with iWeb 08. Upload starts and then I get the error message that iWeb encountered a problem while publishing. The funny thing is that I can see
the photo page in Safari. The only problem is that when starting the slide show I can not see the
forward/backward buttons. Publishing a photo page with iWeb from a .me web photo gallery works without any error message, but still when starting the slideshow the navigation buttons are not displayed. Actually if you click on the place where the navigation buttons are supposed to be,
you can go picture forward/backward. Any idea ?

I am having the same issue, except I do not get any error messages when publishing to a folder. Clicking on the "index" file within the folder will open the photo page in both Safari and Firefox. Everything functions as designed except no forward/backward/pause buttons are visible below the slideshow. There are text box outlines with a question mark where these buttons are supposed to be located, and I can pause, advance or reverse slides. Eventually these question mark outlines disappear and stay disappeared.
The end result is there are no intuitive graphic indicators on the slide show to even suggest to the viewer that he/she has some control over the presentation. I don't believe I can add explanatory text boxes to the slide show to compensate for the missing icons. This lack of visible control elements in the slide show is a huge issue. I am reasonable sure the problem does not reside within my computer. I've also reviewed inspector control options for a photo page/slide show and haven't gotten any combination of check boxes to make a difference.
I'm beginning to think this may be an unexpected conflict that was contained within a recent software update. It might well be worth a close look at programming code by Apple technicians. In the meantime, can anyone offer a clue as to what might be going on?

Publishing multiple websites through iWeb

Hello,
I could use a little help. I have my main website published through iWeb and the mobleme system.
I would like to make another website (which already has a host) on iWeb but can't figured out how to do it.
Any help would be great. Thanks

Okay, so lets just get this clear first of all - which version of iWeb are you using? iWeb 08 or 09? There are differences - if using 09 then click on the name of the site that you want to publish and there should then be a drop down menu at the top of the page that has FTP Mobile Me, FTP Server and then Publish Local Folder. To publish to a folder just click on the Publish Local Folder option and your site will be published to a folder.
iWeb 09 will let you publish individual sites.
If using 08, then this is an 09 forum and there is an 08 forum that you can post to.
However, in iWeb 08 you can choose to Publish to MobileMe and/or then publish to a folder- in 08 there is no ftp to server option and unfortunately, as you have discovered it will publish all sites rather than just individually. If you want to publish individually, then you need to separate out your domain files or use the programme iWebSites to help keep your sites separate.

Publishing new pages on IWEB

I have created a website and its all worked fine and I have published it to the web. However, when I added new pages and deleted a page in IWEB and went to re-publish the site, the new pages haven't published.
Does anyone know how to get the new added pages published onto the live site?
HELP!!
Thanks

First, after you upload changes to your site make sure you empty the browser cache before visiting the site.
If you have done this then the question is - where are you publishing your website and how are you uploading the files - iWeb FTP or another FTP application?

Publishing single pages in iWeb

If I publish to a folder in iWeb 2, prior to uploading via ftp, it looks like I have to publish the whole site even if I've only updated one page. Is there a way to merely publish to updates page(s) only?
Thanks

It really depends on what you updated and if you know anything about the page and site structure.
Unless you know what assets have been changed in, or added to, the page folder, you should upload this along with the the html file and the feed.xml. Messing with this sort of thing is not advisable and you may end up having to re upload all the files anyway!
A far more sensible way is to use an optimizer app to process the files. After the first pass, it will be able to determine which files have been modified on subsequent updates. Choose one with upload facilities.

Of the ones shown on the above page, WebCrusher is probably the easiest to setup while HTML-Optimizer plus is the most economical if you only have one or two sites and want built in FTP.

1st time publishing my site through Iweb

I have created a under construction page for my site. I have tried to publish the site to my domain and Iweb tells me that it has been published. However, when I go to the site all I see is the mobile me home page. What am I doing wrong?

If you have published your site to MobileMe you should be able to reach it at....
http://web.me.com/username/
.... where "username" is your MobileMe user name.
If you have a personal domain name, have you set it up in the iWeb File menu under "Set Up Personal Domain Name on MobileMe"?

Failure to launch - can't publish through iweb

HELP!!!!!!! Neiter the genius bar nor the .mac support can help with the following: I'm a .mac account holder and can't seem to publish my website through iweb. Every time I hit publish, the system asks me to log in with my mac user name and password which I do and my existence as a .mac account holder and the matching password is validated promptly. Then, nothing happens, my site doesn't publish. :-((( Every time I hit publish I have to go through the same drill of signing in without result - I'm ready to scream!!!!!

I can't recall a specific fix for your problem, although I have heard of other people experiencing this. Want to try something anyway?
Try reinstalling the iWeb 1.1.1 update right over what you have installed there. Download the full update from Apple from this location...

See if it makes any difference at all...

My iWeb always publish every pages... Why ?

I made a second iWeb site recently, and it appears that everytime i publish on .Mac, it takes very long time; when I look at the files that are uploaded to .Mac Servers, I see every single file of my two sites, even the unmodified pages !!
I'm pretty convinced that it is not the normal way of publishing for iWeb...
I thought that "blue pages" , that means unmodified pages, was not uploaded, but only the red pages (modified pages).
Does someone have the same problem ?
What can I do to speed up my iWeb publishing ?

I am having the same problem and as someone who has made a living designing and updating pages Apple's way of "managing" web publishing is obtuse at best.
I currently have three "sites" in my iWeb site organizer. If I simply want to make a single web page with a movie on it for my friends to view, I create a new site, make the movie page, and then try and publish this page (as iWeb sees it a "site") to a folder it publishes every page of every other site to that folder. This does not change when you hold down the option key.
I am either missing something or Apple is a bit daft in its grasp of how people might find use for their web page software. I like the templates and ease with which you can integrate of all your Mac generated media - but I do not see a simple solution for making a "one off" page.

IWeb wont publish updated pages to site using Mobileme

Tried to publish 2 updated pages to my current iWeb site published on Mobileme. Am directed through a Facebook username and password login. (Don't remember this step from prior publishing.) Then nothing happens. No site update. No option to publish site available within iWeb. And no way I see to save my changes made in iWeb before I exit the program to try to figure out. I have lost work twice. What is happening and how do I correct the trouble?

You must have checked the box next to "Update my Facebook profile when I publish this site."
Click the site name at the top of the left column in iWeb to get to the Publishing Settings page to change this.

Cant Publish site through IWEB 09 FTP server in my computer

Hi everyone, I have trouble publishing my site in FTP server in my computer. Each time I tried, its saying my password is not correct.I have Macbook pro 10.5.6 intel. I tried publishing my site through another computer and it did!. I dont know whats wrong with my computer. I have Protec Mac antivirus installed. do I have to remove it? I have tried to disable its scan and still not successful. I have my own domain and purchased a 3rd party hosting service.
Help!

OT,
thanks for the reply. yes I can publish it using local folder. But the web site address in browser is sooooo long and starts with file://user/admin/folder/name of my folder/name of my domain name/page name in my web site. Not a good business image and looks so unprofessional I have specifically purchased a domain name and I would prefer it would show up when a client type my web address.
What I dont understand is that It has published from my husbands computer. Isnt the reason why we buy software and install in our computer is for us to be able to use it whenever we want to? (of course with compliance to rules and regulations) I have Ilife 09 and cant use the IWEB. I know that something is causing this "behaviour" in my computer because I am able to upload my site from another computer. I have to borrow my husband's computer everytime I need to update my small business web site.
can anyone suggest something I can do to resolve this issue?
would really appreciate it a lot!
thanks.

I have iWeb '08 and just switched from Mobileme to GoDaddy and using Filezilla. Now when I make changes through iWeb it doesn't actually publish to my desktop folder. In fact, it doesn't publish at all but says that it did.

Choose the destination in the publish settings page as shown in the second example on this page...

The publishing settings page does not open when I click on the domain name and the iWeb application will not stay on the dock.

Hello,
I have been trying to help a friend who is having problems publishing her website. (She has done so previously using Mobile me)
There seem to be a couple of things wrong with the application,
1 if I drag the application icon onto the dock, it won't stay there
2 I wanted to change where her site is published to (she has bought a domain name and has a hosting service now) but when I click on the domain name I do not get the "site publishing settings page" so we can't enter the new details. All that comes up is the main page of her website.
I would suggest uninstalling and re-installing Iweb, to see if that clears the problem, but as Iweb came pre-installed with her Imac, I am not sure that we can do this.
Any ideas please?
she's using and imac 24 in (approx 4 years old) and running osx 10.5.8

NO - not correct. Even if you are still using iWeb 08, you can still publish to another host and not MobileMe. You do this by selecting the option 'Publish to a local folder" and this will publish the site to your desktop and you can then use an ftp programme such as Cyberduck to upload your site to your host.
MobileMe will not be here after the end of June, so you will have to find alternative hosting. They are not taking any new subscriptions.
On new Macs, iLife 11 is pre-installed, but only iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand are included, not iWeb and iDVD. The Apple Online store is not selling the boxed version of iLife 11 any longer, so if you want to upgrade to iLife, then you'll have to look online at Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk for a boxed set of either iLife 09 or iLife 11. Both contains iWeb 09, which is what you would want.

MobileMe has been discontinued for over 2 years now. You'll need to find a new hosting server for your website.
