Publishing iweb site to mobile me. says publish error....

I made two sites on iweb 08 on my old computer and brought the domain file over to my new computer with iweb 09. I updated all the software and etc. And it will not let me publish. It says there is a "Publish Error: Cannot connect to mobileme, check internet connection." I have been on Apple support chat all day troubleshooting different things and nothing has worked. Talked to three different people. The last person then refereed me to apple care...which I do not have and will have to pay for...so does anyone know what i can do to get this to publish??

Try the iWeb forum http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=188

How to upload and publish a non iweb site to mobile me

How do I upload a website I made from a flash template to my mobile me server, I had a iweb website published there, now I want to use my same domain name and publish the new flash site I created to the mobile me server and disable the iweb site.

Just log into your MobileMe account and go to your iDisk and delete the iWeb site that is there.
You can load your other site there by simply dropping and dragging your files for your new site to the Sites folder on your iDisk. Alternatively, MobileMe uses webdav so you can use Cyberduck to publish too.

IWeb site on Mobile me - random pages not showing thumbs, photo's

Not sure if this is the right forum or not, but I'm at my wits end. I keep a family photo web site here http://web.me.com/rotlex
I just noticed over the past few days, that a number of my photo galleries appear to have lost their images and thumbnails. They are still there, in iWeb on my machine, but gone on the site. I see this issue when using either Safari, or Firefox 3. An example is this particular gallery: http://web.me.com/rotlex/home/Archive_Gallery.html
Anyone have any ideas? Does the link above show photo's, or thumbs for anyone? Again, this appears random on the site, not all pages, etc. Thanks for any input.

Thank you! I'm running the Publish all to Mobile now. I didn't even know that was an option! (Guess I should thoroughly read the manuals on some of this stuff eh? (Only been using iWeb since, well it's inception, LOL).
Seriously though, I did as you said first, just changed something minor on a page, published it, and it worked fine. I'm assuming re-publishing the whole site will fix it all.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. 8-)

What do I do with my iWeb site on Mobile Me? The iCal calendar already doesn't work at the moment.

I am so behind the times....sorry. I know Apple now has iCloud. So where does that leave me with an iWeb designed website and it's hosted on mobile me???? The iCal calendar is already not working for some reason. Is it true that the iWeb program is going away all together? Is there no way to transfer it to the iCloud? Why would they come out with iLife 11 with iWeb if they have no intentions of continuing iWeb????? HELP!!!!! I have to make sure the site is active. Do I have to redo the entire frikin calendar on google?
Some one give me answers...Thanks!

Well, it leaves you still being able to host your site on MobileMe until June next year. iCloud and MobileMe will exist together until this time. This gives you time to find alternative hosting for your site.
iCloud will NOT be providing hosting, which is exactly why Apple gave MMe users plenty of notice that this would be happening so that they could prepare and move to other alternative hosting.
What you need to do is have a look at web hosts such as GoDaddy and HostExcllence and purchase a domain name from them as well as hosting and you can upload your website here with no problems. Either publish to a local folder or use the iWeb built in ftp to upload.
iWeb is an application and if you have it you can still use it. It works with Lion and Snow Leopard. No you don't have to re-build. Continue to use iWeb.
Yes, iLife 11 was brought out, but did you not notice that iWeb and iDVD were not updated as part of this? They upgraded GarageBand, iPhoto and iMovie but not the others, so even though it is iLife 11, it is still iWeb 09.
Your website will be okay hosted on MobileMe until June next year and after that you'll need to upload to another host. iWeb will continue and you can still use it - you don't need to re-build all your sites.

DISCONNECT IWEB SITE FROM MOBILE ME

I have a site I created with iweb08. I downloaded the folder and uploaded it to my new yahoo domain and web hosting service.
On yahoo when I look at my site preview it's right but but when you visit the site on the web (www.bradguld.com) it still shows a mobile me closed sign.
How do I disconnect this site from linking with mobile me?

Go back in time and remember the moment you enabled Personal domain at MobileMe and entered the CNAME record where you manage your domainname.
Reverse the process.

Can I publish my iWeb site on iCloud since Mobile Mme no longer exists?

I dont know how to pub lish my iWeb site without mobile me. Any ideas?

it is not possible at all. iCloud has no Gallery, no Website and lacks also lots of other features of MobileMe.
Refer to what has already posted here to find alternatives. iWeb however will continue to work in Lion, so it is not a program issue. You just need to find some ftp hoster that you can use with iWeb.

How do I fix an error "4652747.png" when publishing my iWeb site to iMac?

Every time I try to publish my iWeb site to .Mac I get an error message that says there's an error in " ...files/ca4652747.png." I know this is an image file, but when i search for it on my hard drive it shows a blank image. I've tried deleting the file from the hard drive but when I re-publish, a second file "c00ff001c.png" on a different web page shows the same error. I can't figure out how to fix these errors. It publishes to a folder, or so it says, but i don't know how to check that. I am supposed to publish the entire site at the end of this week and have all the work done but can't get past this point. Can anyone help me? I'm a new mac user and this is my first shot at web design, so I've probably missed something obvious, but would appreciate any help.

k, try this:
backup your domain file! delete the one in the folder BUT HAVE A COPY OF IT SOMEWHERE ELSE. Then open iWeb, create something save it and publish it!
now go to your backuped file,make one more backup!!!!
move one of the backuped files into the Users/username/bblablabla folder and open iWeb. try publish all and see if it works!

Viewing Published iWeb site

Hey there,
I have published my iWeb site to mobile me. and I can see it in my safari browser. However I was told by friends and family that they could not view it. :/
So I tried it on a friends MacBook and sure enough it couldn't be reached.
Any Ideas on how to fix this? I don't even know what is wrong...
Thanks
BP

Ben ~ Welcome to the discussions. If you don't mind giving out your site's URL, perhaps someone here can help. If not, MobileMe live chat support is now 24/7 — see this announcement. Other Apple support options are here.

IWeb site for selling my books

I'm an author who is selling my books on an old web site where my Merchant account provided HTML snippits to create a shopping basket where customers can buy my books. When they put in their credit card data it transfers the $ to my bank account, and I get an email and ship my books to them.
I have created a new iWeb site to replace the old one on NetWork solutions at my domaine www.deepwaterspress.com and do not know how to put my merchant account HTML snippits into my iWeb site on Mobile me. Please advise. Thanks,
Harold Lyon

Harold ~ Welcome to the discussions. The MobileMe Terms of Service states:
"The Service is designed for personal individual use and is not intended to be used for commercial business purposes, including, but not limited to, transacting online sales or software distribution via an e-commerce site."
The addition of an HTML Snippet is briefly shown in this video tutorial:
http://www.apple.com/findouthow/web/iweb08.html#livecontent
An alternative to HTML Snippets is to hyperlink from your iWeb site to a free e-commerce page at Weebly — see the video here:
http://blog.weebly.com/2/post/2009/05/announcing-weebly-e-commerce-features.html
If that's suitable, you may even want to consider building your entire site in Weebly.
By the way, a tip... Instead of posting your site's URL like this:
www.deepwaterspress.com
...include the prefix like this:
http://www.deepwaterspress.com
...then it will be easily clickable in your post. And before posting, you can switch from Compose mode to Preview mode to verify that the hyperlink actually goes to your site when clicked.

How can I edit or remove iWeb pages from Mobile me after I have published it to another site?

I have published iweb pages to another server and now I need to replace the mobile me version with page "pages moved to..." or at least I need to delete old version. However I can't find any way to do this from mobile me or from iWeb.
From Mobile me I cant find any way to even delete pages.
With iWeb I cant edit the old version because I cant find way to have two version of same pages. As I understand what I need is a version of my republished pages that only contains the index page "pages moved to...". But I cant create that because I cant have two versions.

IWeb site suddenly won't publish to MobileMe

Have been publishing my iWeb site successfully with iLife '09 and Snow Leopard for a couple of months now. Yesterday I added a page and published successfully. Then I made changes to some already published pages. These pages are mostly photos and I changed download size from medium to large. Tried to publish these changes and got the error message: An error occurred while publishing file “/Web/.Temporary Web Resources/C-20091129-115210-0500/RiceHS/bavs_Iona_Prep_files/Media/DSC2189”. Try publishing again later.
Have tried to publish just changes and then the whole site again. I always get the error message but the long file name changes every time. I have deleted clientConfiguration.plist, com.apple.iWeb.plist and CachedResources.plist files. Problem persists. Anyone have any idea what is going on?

I have been having this problem for the past month.
My iWeb sites are published to Mobile Me. I update them at least once a day. Every week...usually on a weekend, I have experienced the same error described in this thread. The fact that is almost always happens on a weekend is suspicious. The only other time it happened was at 5AM on a Monday morning.
I have stopped believing that it is somehow related to an error on my computer. I tried deleting preferences in both places (the "ByHost" folder that is inside the user's Preferences folder and the regular iWeb preferences file inside the user's Preferences folder. I can publish to a folder and then drag the files to my iDisk without any problem. In the end, if I wait long enough, the problem seems to go way.
I can't be sure, but I believe this problem began when I upgraded from Mac OSX 10.5.7 to 10.5.8.
To the people who have been having this problem, I can only say that I don't think the problem lies with you and your software.

Issues with publishing my iWeb site to .MAC - Progress bar freezes at 100%

Well, as topic says, i'm having troubles publishing my iWeb site to .MAC now since upgrading to '08. The progress bar reaches full circle, but then nothing. Left it uploading to .Mac for well over 2 hours one time while out of the house...nada. Sometimes i get an error message, sometimes not and have to close iWeb while it's still publishing.
Any feedback regarding this?
Thanks in advance.
/Rich

Update: After 36 hours, I have successfully managed to upload my entire website via the "Publish All to .Mac" option. I now have blue indicators on the left side of my iWeb program in place of those pesky red ones. How did I do it? Well, I'm not sure. But on my last attempt I looked at the problem from a different perspective, so I took an alternate approach. I had a feeling that I was experiencing a network timeout issue caused by a 3rd party software, so I created a Whitelist entry on my website filtering software that allows unlimited access to "idisk.mac.com";; and "web.mac.com";; domains. I've got two kids at home, so I'm running the free OpenDNS Dashboard service on my network which provides content filtering (blocks adult site, phishing site, etc..). I started using this service two weeks ago. My last website update was a week before that. I figured I had nothing to loose by trying. To my surprise, it worked. Now, it took almost two hours to publish, of which the pie indicator was in the "filled" position for a nerve racking hour. To reconfirm, I then made a minor change to one of the pages on my website and re-published. This time using the "Publish to .Mac" option in place of the ALL option and once again it worked. It took less than 5 minutes. Now, I'm not sure if this is a coincidence, maybe Apple fixed the problem, or maybe my website filtering service was causing some type of time out issue all along?? Don't know.. But at least for now, I'm a happy camper since I have my site up.

Re-Publishing an iWeb site with GoDaddy

I am having a very frustrating issue when a attempt to re-upload my already made iWeb site onto a domain that I am paying for through GoDaddy. I started the site two years ago with a two year plan for hosting on GoDaddy. Everything was fine for those 2 years. Then, just recently those 2 years ran up and the web page went blank. So I payed more through GoDaddy to extend my hosting plan for 3 more years. Through doing this, GoDaddy gave me a new web hosting username and password that they told me to put in iWeb when i launch the site. So I went back to iWeb and when I click the "Publish Site" button, a notification drops down and says that the site cannot be published because the username or password are incorrect. However, it displays the OLD username and there is NOWHERE to change it to the new one that GoDaddy has given me. I have been through every menu I could find in iWeb (I am using the iLife '11 version) and cannot find anywhere to change this username and password. This is extremely frustrating because I am paying for the hosting time even when the site is not running. Please Help!!! THANKS!

@Shawn2375 - This may assist you with uploading the site: http://x.co/mXkk Also in hat article it links you to the FTP article to help reset the password if need be. Support is also open 24/7 to assist you as well. Thanks for posting! ^Colby Go Daddy Social Media Team

appreciete your help

Not all of my photos upload to my website when I publish it. when my site finishes publising I get an error that says, "There was an error communicating with the FTP server. Try again later, or check with your service provider."

Not all of my photos upload to my website when I publish it. when my site finishes publising I get an error that says, "There was an error communicating with the FTP server. Try again later, or check with your service provider."

I am publishing directly to an FTP server (option 1). Is this the optimal method or should I be publishing to a folder and then (how do/would I?) publish to my hosting domain?
I'm wondering if this has really anything to do with the publishing process, or whether it just has to do with the photos and/or the photo albums. I've deleted the photo albums with the missing pictures from my site on iweb thinking a file might be corrupt. (I'm getting the albums from iphoto -- drag/drop method into iweb) I then replaced these albums with the same albums as the previous ones from iphoto and then published my site again -- and the EXACT same photos were once again missing in the NEW albums as were missing in the old albums...
Maybe it is a publishing issue, or it could be a photo/file issue. However, these albums aren't very large -- the largest containing 135 photos --
Please! if you have any suggestions or ideas as to what is happening I would be greatly appreciative!
I'm pulling my hair out here trying to diagnose the problem...
