Publishing to .mac and go daddy

I have a .mac account that I publish to. I work for a non-profit and they want to re-vamp their website via iWeb. We have a go daddy account that our site currently uses. Is it possible to publish create the new work website in iWeb then publish it via the go daddy account without interfering with my personal .mac account?
If so, could someone walk me through the process before I get in too deep?
Thanks!

Is it possible to publish create the new work website in iWeb then publish it via the go daddy account without interfering with my personal .mac account?
Here are some tips for using another server like Godaddy:

Publish to .mac AND other server

Question:
I already publish to .mac - no problems there. I need to publish another website on another server. I published to a folder, used Fetch to upload it - works great (I know I lose some of iWeb's features, but that can't be helped).
Here is my question - now when I publish to .mac - the second site I created for the other server loads on my .mac space also. This is not a huge deal - I have no links from one site to the other, it just seems like a waste of space. Is there a way I can choose to upload only my primary site to .mac and not the other one as well?

Hi Scott,
The best thing to do in your case is to separate your two sites into two separate Domain files. That way the two sites can be edited and published independently from one another, so you don't have to have both sites uploaded to .Mac.
If you are in sort of the beginning stages of doing this second site, it might be easiest to start over in a new Domain file. If however, you do not wish to start over with the second site, then splitting off this second site to another Domain file can be done as well.
I'll refer you to a page put up by Mark Heaton (Apnewbie) on the process of domain separation...
http://web.mac.com/mark8heaton/iWeb/DomainSeparation
You might also find this iWeb helper application called "iWebSites" useful in managing your multiple domain files and creating new domain files, etc...

Publish to .mac and redirect

Is it possible to publish a site I made with iweb to .mac and then have it redirected to another domain name?

They are asking for the IP address but I only know
the URL. What do I do to redirect to .mac now?
You can't use the IP address, only the URL. If the people you are working with will not offer you the kind of "Domain Forwarding" service that uses the URL (sometimes they want to charge extra), you will need to change the place where you have your domain name.

Using iWeb to publish to .mac and separate web page

Hi all,
I have a rather complicated question. I am in the process of developing three web pages: 2 pages will be developed with iWeb and hosted off of .mac. For the third website, I have purchased a domain name and would like to publish it with iWeb.
Is this too complicated?
How is this done? I have some technical knowledge with regards to website but am new to the apple web publishing world.

To keep things separate create a new user account on your machine for the non .Mac Site.

Can I hybrid-publish to .Mac AND another host?

I have a site with a lot of video clips, and am rapidly approaching the 4mg max for .Mac. I love the convenience of using iWeb and publishing automatically, and would like to continue utilizing the ease of that without bothering with having to FTP it to an outside host site every day. So I’m thinking of creating a hybrid – does it sound like this will work?
I use the Blog or Video archetypes to create new entries, so that visitors can subscribe and be notified of new entries. What I would like to do is archive older video entries on an outside host – these would be pages that won’t be changing anymore, so I think I could just do an Archive page and “link to a webpage” for them without iWeb needing to reload anything every time I publish. A “Return” button would bring them back to the Archive page on my .Mac site.
Workable? Crazy? Any votes?

Hi Cynthia!
I am already doing something similar... I am uploading my videos and stuff to Google Video (http://video.google.com) and then editing the HTML pages that iWeb publishes in order to show the videos through my page. Here is an example...
Putt-Putt's Deleted Scenes
I use the basic method of adding HTML to iWeb pages to reserve "windows" on the iWeb page so that the videos can show through via Google video (by means of the embedded HTML code from Google). Here are the instructions for adding external HTML to your iWeb pages...

Let me know if you have any questions! Good luck!

General inquiry - Why ar .Mac and publishing/accessing iWeb sites so slow??

Greetings,
I do realize that that general topic has been addressed somehow many times, in whole or in parts. I am just shooting for a general update on the subject(s).
I have grown fond of iWeb and just renewed my .Mac subscription. I am also a user of Dreamweaver and FrontPage. I just find the iWeb/.Mac combination so straight forward and... irresistible fun to play with!
BUT, before i commit more to that environment, I need to know - again:
1. Why is .Mac/iDisk so slow in access?
2. Correspondingly, publishing to .Mac and iDisk is slow. Why, actually?
3. Difficulties in accessing iWeb sites published to .Mac/iDisk when using InternetExplorer (which, whether we want it or not, IS the predominant browser out there...). We know Firefox is better at it.
4. Ultimately, would publishing iWeb sites to other servers (I have a couple of non-iWeb websites currently hosted elsewhere) make publishing AND accessing such sites speedier?
I will appreciate any advice, input, assessment.

I think it's because it's more a social server with a lot of server side features available for .Mac users and iLife applications. Therefore there's a fair amount of server work when users use it for email, web sites with slideshows, backing up, etc. A commercial server will be much faster. There are othesr here that know more about servers than I and can give you a more technical explanation. But you're right, it is slow but convenient.

Publish Error Workaround - Manually Publish to .Mac

If you are having problems publishing your iWeb sites, you can manually publish to .Mac and still get all of the special .Mac-only features by following these steps:
1) Choose "Publish All to .Mac" from the file menu.
2) As soon as you get the message that your site upload will continue in the background, open Applications > Utilities > Terminal
3) In Terminal type:
open /var/tmp
4) A Finder window will open. Find the folder called "folder.SomeNumber". Open it and then open the TemporaryItems folder. In it should be several folders called com.apple.iWebSome_LongNumber. In one of them you will find a folder called "sites" that contains all of your sites from iWeb ready to upload to .Mac.
5) Copy (Option-Drag) this "sites" folder to your desktop
6) Now you can upload the contents of that folder to the proper location on your iDisk (the correct path is iDisk/Web/Sites/iWeb/)
I hope this helps some of you get your sites published. It worked for me.

Hi geebee - bit long winded but this is the full fix that I wrote up for someone else - it worked for them so good luck.
1. To create a new login, open system preference folder and open accounts. Unlock by clicking on the padlock icon. Now click on the plus icon which will allow you to create a new login name and password. Tick allow user to administer computer. Lock the padlock again and close window.
2. Go to apple logo top left of screen and logoff your username - you will be prompted shortly with choice of logins and choose the new one - you get a fresh screen which looks like when you first switched on the mac. You can test iweb here by publishing any old template to see if it works. It should do. Assuming all is ok, this next is how to publish your existing site.
3. Go back to your normal login. Find the domain file and copy it to dvd - domain file can be found as follows: open finder > click on house icon (yourname) >click on library >click on application support >click on iweb and here you will find domain file - copy it.
4. Log out and log on to new login again - find domain file in this system and delete it then in its place put your copy domain file from the dvd. When you open iweb in this system you should see your web files and hopefully you should now be able to publish them. This is where I succeeded.
5. If successful I have since discovered that you can do the reverse - ie. delete the domain file from your main login - copy domain file from your new login and put it back in the original system. I found this shook off whatever the problem was. I have also discovered since that I seem to have lost some functionality in that the slide shows don't seem to work now so I guess I might have to rebuild some of the pages - but the important thing is it will now publish.
Hope you can follow this and hope you have the success I had. Let me know if there is anything else I can help with, and let me know if it works.

Publishing on .Mac versus another hosting plan

I published the same Blog on .Mac and another hosting plan and get different results. To publish to my hosting plan at aPlus.net I first publish to a folder on my disk and then ftp that folder to my host.
At ,Mac the Blog works fine. At aPlus.net when I click on the first entry I get the following error
Not Found
The requested URL /Investing/Blog/Entries/2007/8/18The_week_afterpillâ€¦.html was not found on this server.
Note the strange characers inserted after pilla....I have published the same stuff several times to a different folder and have ftp-ed several copies of this folder to aPlus. but the results are different compared to .Mac
You can check it out by going to these two sites and click on the first entry
http://www.flemishDNA.com/Investing/Blog/Blog.html
This is the copy residing on .Mac
http://www.dokuspublishing.com/Investing/Blog/Blog.html
this is the same blog residing at aPlus.net
Where do these strange characters come from and how come publishing to .Mac and to another host turn out to produce different results ?
Anyone?

Non-.Mac servers sometimes have more restrictions on characters they will accept. Yours is perhaps not accepting the ellipsis in UTF-8.
One thing you could try is to put an .htaccess file in your web space with the entry "SecFilterEngine Off" and/or "SecFilterCheckUnicodeEncoding Off" (without quotes).
A utility for fixing filenames with accented characters is available here.

Help! I reinstalled my Mac and erased my iWeb page in the program.Its published, is there any way to download the pages from Mobile Me?

To download your pages from MobileMe simply mount your iDisk.
Then navigate to the Web > Sites folder where the pages are.
You can't do anything with them however, since iWeb cannot import them. But it's nice to know that you can download them.
You need the domain.sites2 files, iWeb uses to store its assets. Perhaps you have a backup?
See this page for pictures and movies to learn how to use the domain file :

Try iStudio Publisher

Links are broken, and iWeb won't publish to .mac

Hi,
Just installed ilife and immediately ran update, and tried to continue editing/updating my site.
After publishing, the look of the page was fine, however, all the links to my blog entries were broken. Tried republishing, changing themes, and other to get it fixed. Still links are broken.
Now I am getting this error from .mac and iWeb:
An error occurred while publishing file “/Web/Sites/My_Page/Blog/Entries”. Try publishing again later.
Is this a known problem thats being fixed?
I hear of lots of people having problems. Any ideas? Anyone?

Well, I first took a lot out of my site by deleting from my Idisk so I could go down to a small site to be published. I checked on my sign in with .mac and discovered my husband's signin was current...not mine, so I changed that to mine. then proceeded and was successful. Hated taking down so much but it is still in Iphoto so can reconstruct.
For some reason I was getting a Publishing Error message so I would recommend checking on your settings for your .mac signin. i still am showing that I have 4.95GB in my site. I just need to reconnect some of my links and then all should be fine. Good luck.

Publishing to .mac - how many domains can i have?

ok.
I have a .mac account.
I have a domain name outside of .mac.
I have used iWeb and have published my pages to .mac.
My domain name, let's call it myname.com, is pointed to my .mac domain.
So instead of going to web.mac.com/myname, it goes to myname.com
Wonderful.
I have used iWeb to easily design my personal webpage.
I can use myname.com and no one has to bother with the big, long hard to remember .mac domain.
Exactly what I wanted.
Now:
I bought 2 more domain names.
One is for my art project.
One is for my writing project.
I want to use the same easy process detailed above:
Use iWeb to design and publish each one to their designated domain names (like one would use a dreamweaver type program)
The Problem:
The .mac account seems to only want to publish to ONE designated domain name.
It seems that .mac only HOSTS ONE with the annual membership.
I don't want to have my personal site, my art project, and my writing project to be linked.
I want them to be THREE TOTALLY SEPARATE WEBSITES with THREE TOTALLY DIFFERENT DOMAIN NAMES. I would like to pay apple to host all three websites. Let's call them:
1) myname.com
2) artsite.com
3) writingsite.com
I've read many posts on this forum and noticed that many people have had this same issue but haven't really had their question answered.
I UPGRADED my membership to a FAMILY PACK thinking this would resolve my issue - I get 4 more accounts with .mac and I can HOST AND PUBLISH up to 4 more totally separate websites by paying the additional $80/year.
I tried this and when I log out of my main mother account that holds myname.com
and i log into my sub-account that holds artsite.com,
it does not seem that I can HOST AND PUBLISH to a BRAND NEW .mac domain.
it seems the family pack does nothing but give you extra email and iDisk storage, etc.
it seems to NOT offer an additional HOSTING AND PUBLISHING feature.
My QUESTION:
Does anyone know if it is possible to have a .mac account OR have a .mac upgraded family pack
that will allow me to host and publish to three totally different unrelated websites?
the iwebsites program only allows you to keep the iweb designs in separate folders - THIS IS NOT MY PROBLEM. I want to use iweb to design my websites (the way one would use dreamweaver, and use my .mac account to host the 3 separate websites).
Is this possible?

You can host only ONE domain at dotMac.
As a matter of fact, iWeb is irrelevant in this matter. You can create your own pages in any HTML editor and dotMac will happily serve them. With or without a domain.
I know that iWeb is irrelevant, however I am choosing to use it to design my webpages and would like to use it to publish to several different domain names that i want to have hosted through .mac
If you bought more domains then follow the advice you quoted.
which advice i quoted?
By +Your hosting company+ is meant the company where you purchased your domains. In your case Network Solutions.
I have forwarding too (at [DynDNS|http://www.dyndns.com>). I forward to any page I want. If a webpage is visible in a browser window you can forward to it. With or without masking.
No where on Network Solutions does it give me the option to use web forwarding or web masking in my account options. Apparently this is because I do not pay for hosting. I only have paid for the domain name.
When you have a family pack you have 5 dotMac accounts. Each can be used to host a domain. At least that's what I understand from the dotMac Help.
I refer to the dotMac forum (again) for further help.
I have posted here as well as you suggested and I have had zero posts or replies, but I do appreciate you noting to do so. Hopefully someone will know!
I would say that Apple should not mention the relation between iWeb and Personal Domain and just say that the Domain points to the /iDisk/Web/Sites folder and that there should at least be an index.html file present.
But then, I'm not marketing the stuff.
True, but I'm not confused about how iWeb relates. I'm only using it because I'm choosing to. I can get dreamweaver but don't really care to install it since iWeb can do what i need.

Event invitations not published to .mac web page with rest of calendar

I've published a calendar to the .mac web server successfully, and the web page for the named calendar shows up fine in browsers at the appropriate URL.
However, when I receive an invitation from somebody else, and accept it, and put it into that (published) calendar, that event does NOT get published to the web page. Any idea why?
Example
- Joe uses Google Calendar to invite me to a meeting
- Google calendar sends me a .ics file in email
- I open the .ics file (click in Apple Mail, which launches iCal)
- I view the invitation in iCal; then change the status to "Accepted" (from Invited), and change the Calendar for this event to the Calendar I've published on .mac
- (iCal properly notifies Joe via a reply .ics via email that I've accepted)
- iCal is properly updating my schedule on .mac for all other events besides this meeting invitation; but the meeting invitation does not get pushed to the .mac web page for my calendar
Item of note: In this use case, I am NOT the event Organizer; somebody else is. Is this why iCal doesn't do it? Or is there something I'm not setting correctly in iCal? Or...?
This renders .mac-web-published calendars effectively useless, since a good share of my calendar is made up of people who email me .ics invitations, and (for various reasons) the person who manages my schedule has to use the .mac web UI for my calendar to know when she can dish out my time. (She doesn't actually put things in my schedule; just allots time.)

LINUX USB install (NOT LIVE) that works on a Mac and PC

I've installed linux on a USB and I can use it on any pc I want. I just change the boot device and I'm in my private linux os with all my stuff. But if I buy a macbook can I use it on a mac, how?
There are planty tutorials how to make a LIVE USB (boots using ram - like a LVIE CD), but nowhere I can find how to but an actuall install of linux from USB on a mac that also works on a PC, is that possible, it's just a key combination or a boot order in bios or is not posible at all?
I never had a mac in my life, forgive me if this is a simple "Just hit F2, stupid!" question.
Again no ISO, no LIVE, I want the install to have my stuff, I don't want to install flash and my stuff everytime I boot.
Thanks in advance.

You can use a Linux Live USB or CD on any PC is because the hardware drivers are freely availalbe.
On Mac's that's just not the case, until later on someone who gives a ratts behind and runs Linux on a Mac, and is a command line guru can get them and publish them for others to use.
Also Mac's have all sorts of other drivers to control the fans, etc., that if one tries to boot off Linux causes issues.
Installing Linux on a Mac is a big no no, unless your a computer science graduate, because Linux installs it's Swap folder into the hidden EFI partition and reformats the Macintosh HD partiiton with OS X on it and other horrors as it's not a generic PC like people think it is.
You can install Linux into a virtual machine like virtualbox, then OS X is still controling the hardware and virtualbox is taking care of the under the hood things
