Restoring Lost Site Through iDisk

I just reformated my mac, so everything got erased. But my iDisk has my site still under iDisk -> Web -> Sites and then has my site. So how can I get my iWeb 09 to import the site from my iDisk to the actually iWeb so I can start editing it and etc..

No, because it is not part of your published site, rather it is an iWeb file and can be found under User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites.
Anything on your iDisk or under MobileMe is a published site that iWeb cannot open and it is the same if you publish to a folder, the site is published so iWeb cannot use it.
In this case, you will either have to locate your domain file or re-build your site.

Restoring iweb site from idisk

My hard drive from a Mac with OS 10.4.11 recently died a painful death and was unrecoverable. My files were unfortunately not backed up as they should have been (lesson learned). I have a new Mac and am trying to be able to access my iweb site without having to start over again. All of the files are accessible via idisk, but is there a way to restore them so that I can actually make edits in iweb?
thanks!

Restoring old iweb site from idisk

THrough sheer ignorance, I created a "new Site" in iweb, not realizing it would replace my exiting website, which is far more important. I want to restore my old site. I am able to access the old site through idisk, but have no idea how to relink it so that it reappears as my website. (Someone suggested opening the index.html in plain text editor and correcting the URL, but I have no idea how to do that. Tried opening it in "text Edit" and no URL is there)
Appreciate any help!!!! This is killing me!

TextEdit is what is says - it is an html editor so that you use it to edit html code, so not url will show up as it does in Safari etc. Safari is a browser and TextEdit does what it says on the tin - edits html code.
The easiest way is to go back into iWeb and open your domain file with the site on it and re-publish all of that site and it will be back at the top again. That is assuming that you have the relevant domain fiel and have not deleted it?
If you publish another site in iWeb, assuming that they have different names, they will not cancel each other out, but what will happen is that the second published site will be at the top, so all you need do is re-publish your original site from iWeb and it will be back at the top again.
You can always get to all your iWeb sites via the url http://web.me.com/username/sitename so Site1, Site2 etc.

Unpublish iWeb site in iDisk

Hi
I can see a number of old threads here regarding removing a site through iDisk and I have folowed these but still have a folder remaining (with content) that I cannot remove.
I have navivated to the iWeb/Sites folder but whenever I try to deleye the folder named _gallery I get a message saying I do not have the permissions to access some of the items
Can anyone help me to work my way round this please
Thanks
Patrick

Ha
Thanks for the responses - I think I have it now.
It was not iPhoto - but Aperture, where I had previously published some photo galleries. I had already removed the galleries in Aperture but for some reason one of them still remained in the MobileMe gallery. I was able to delete this in MobileMe directly and the files in iDisk have now gone.
Thanks for your help

Domain sites on idisk

I consider myself an apple addict. Love Apple.
For the last year I have known that apple was moving from the .mac to icloud. I thought our data/mail would be moved from idisk to icloud. I know, silly me. Now, I can't access my files, photos and domain files for the many websites I have made the last decade. This move is like me telling my husband that I am going shopping next June without letting him know I am going to wipe out his bank account at the same time.
Please give me suggestions on how I can access my iweb domain files and idisk files to save to another location.
In the future I will not put so much trust in Apple. Am pretty sure that if I put all of my files in the iCloud, that one day soon it too will just disappear for the next great thing. Anyone heard of the word MIGRATION? AND to think.....I paid good money for a service I did not receive.
Thanks in advance for your guidance and support. I really appreciate all of the experts out there who take the time to address our questions and attempt to relieve our frustrations.

If you migrated your MobileMe account and have Lion, your Mail, Contacts and Calendars would be migrated. You signature says you have 10.5.2 - is this correct? You cannot do anything with iCloud on Leopard except access your email, for which you will need to set Mail up manually:
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard
As announced in various emails and notices on the site, the iDisk was not transferred to iCloud, which does not provide an equivalent service, and it is now closed and the contents deleted. You had over a year's warning to download your files - but you have not been charged for MobileMe since your last renewal date: it was extended for free until the closure.
Any files which were on your iDisk and not also on your computer are irretrievably lost, I'm afraid. However your sites should still be visibile in iWeb as long as you have not lost the Domain file which lives in (user)/Library/Application Support/iWeb. iWeb should open that automatically. (The Domain file was never stored on the iDisk unless you put it there yourself, and downloading your site's pages wouldn't do you any good because iWeb cannot open html pages.)
You will need to find another hosting service - there are plenty to choose from - and you can publish your iWeb site to that, using the FTP option in the Publish pane on iWeb '09 and above, or with earlier versions you will need to publish to a local folder and upload that using an FTP program such as Cyberduck.

Backup and Restore My Sites

Hi,
I was hoping for a bit of clarity regarding this topic.
As I understand it, there are two sides of MySites, the Site Collections that are created through self-service site creation for users content, and then service application that provisions the site profiles.
For site profiles, I believe that the Farm Backup and Restore procedure in Central Administration takes care of this, and a backup and restore can be done by selecting the service application in the long list of tick boxes available in the Farm Backup options.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
For the Site Collections, as far as I can tell, you can either back them up individually using the SharePoint native backup tool (not feasible for thousands of site collections), backup the content db using SQL backup, or Powershell. As far as I can tell,
this has the limitation of only allowing you to backup and restore ALL sites collections at once, not individual site collections. Is this correct?
If so, is there a way of backing up the site collections so that an individual site collection can be restored should it be required, without having to painstakingly backup all the site collections individually? I didn't know if there was a script for this
or failing that a 3rd party tool.
Any thoughts and input would be much appreciated.

Re: SQL backups, yes. When you attach the content database it attaches all the site collections in the database.
There is no out of the box method to restore individual site collections unless you perform individual site collection backups. You can automate this with PowerShell.
Something like this would work:
$mysites = Get-SPSite -Webapplication "My Sites"
$Path = "\\path\to\place\backups\"
foreach ($site in $mysite) {
$filename = $($site.ServerRelativeUrl -replace "/", "_") + ".bak"
Backup-SPSite -Identity $site -Path $($Path + $filename)
This creates a site collection backup of every site collection in the My Sites Webapplication (you could customize this as necessary for your environment). Note that it replaces forward slashes ("/") in the site collection URL with underscores
("_") as you can't have the slashes in a filename.
This is a quick and dirty script as well. You'd probably want to add outputs or set the site locks, or whatever.
Alternatively, most third-party SharePoint backup solutions offer more granulated restore options -- with a single backup you can restore everything that an OOB backup would contain, plus you can get lower within the content -- so site collections, sites,
lists, libraries, items, documents.

Restoring Mailbox data through Transaction logs

Hello all,
We're running Exhange server 2007 on a dedicated VM.
We're currently running Tri-Daily VM backups and Daily backups via tape in 1 set, and 4 weekly sets of tapes.
Our issue is that now the tape drive has broken and we're trying to source a replacement and or repair of the tape drive, we need to work out how we're going to restore lost data without having to purchase more hardware for VM backups for dailys.
We know that transaction logs can be used to roll forward to a point in time of when the last VM backup was taken, to the time the server went down. to restore as many lost emails as possible.
Our SLA to our users is currently 2-48 hours of lost data on the system, but we'd like to limit this as much as possible, and as it's tri-daily, we run the risk of over running that SLA.
So the main question is, how would we roll our database forward using the transaction logs?

Great link from Ed and regarding rolling logs there are a few things to keep in mind.
1. in order to use ESEutil to roll logs you MUST have a database that is in a dirty/inconsistent state, i.e. system stopped abruptly (was not shut down gracefully) or an Exchange aware backup was made and you are able to restore the DB to disk without rolling
up or mounting the DB.
2. You can only rollup/apply a set of logs to a dirty DB one time, i.e. lets say you have a backup of the DB that is still dirty and the backup was from 1/1/2014 and you have logs up through today 3/11/2014. So you could then make a copy of the logs
through say 1/31/2014 and use eseutil to roll them up and bring the db to a consistent/clean state.
3. However if you want to rollup data through say 2/15/2014 you cannot do so with the DB that was rolled up to 1/31/2014 in step 2 because that DB is now in a clean/consistent state and therefore it will not accept additional log rollup for the logs through
2/15/2014. To solve this you would need to do the following;
A: get a copy of the 1/1/2014 EDB that is dirty/inconsistent
B: copy the logs from 1/14 to 2/15 into a separate directory
C: Roll the logs into the DB using eseutil.
Search, Recover, & Extract Mailboxes, Folders, & Email Items from Offline Exchange Mailbox and Public Folder EDB's and Live Exchange Servers or Import/Migrate direct from Offline EDB to Any Production Exchange Server, even cross version i.e. 2003 -->
2007 --> 2010 --> 2013 with Lucid8's

When I am NOT private browsing Firefox will not allow me to delete or change the website address in the location bar. My only remedy is to open a new window and search in google then click the link to that site through google. How can I resolve this?

Question
When I am NOT private browsing Firefox will not allow me to delete or change the website address in the location bar. My only remedy is to open a new window and search in google then click the link to that site through google. When I swap to private browsing firefox allows me to anter the website address directly into the location bar - but this is a slow [prcess to swap back and forth - also by dint of using private browsing I loose my website information.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Sidebar missing from iCal in Lion - seeking a third party product to restore lost functionality

Apple has removed the sidebar, the always-on list of calendars that required no click.
The shallow popover that appears only when clicked — obscuring part of the calendar before disappearing — is to me (and some others) an unacceptable substitute for working with multiple calendars, especially where calendars are grouped across multiple servers.
I'm aware of third party alternatives to iCal. (Most full-featured calendar interfaces do have an always-on full-height list of calendars. Probably the best known alternative to iCal is BusyCal.)
This topic does not seek alternatives; I do wish to continue using iCal, albeit in a way that is less frustrating than what Apple forces upon users of 10.7.
This topic seeks:
a third party product that will restore lost functionality to iCal.
To any developer who reads this topic: please, I beg you, on my knees, submit your iCal sidebar app — or whatever you wish to call it — to the App Store as soon as you can. I'll gladly pay, and more than gladly help to test any pre-Store development version.
Other readers please note: whilst I'm extraordinarily frustrated by Apple's design decision, this is not an invitation to rant. Let's gain something constructive from this discussion.
If you wish Apple to restore the sidebar to iCal, as an option, then please:
submit iCal feedback to Apple, with your use case; explain why for you personally the limited disappearing popover is a poor substitute; explain how the sidebar will improve both (a) your productivity and (b) your appreciation of Apple's software.
Side note: no category includes iCal, so I file this opening post under Using Mac OS X v10.7 Lion.
Thank you
Graham

the new way
Many things in the new iCal are beautifully designed. I am certain that the new iCal will be enjoyed by people who use the new multi-session screen sharing for Mac OS on iOS (that should be a separate topic).
iCal's aqua popover default may be perfect for people who have only a handful of calendars.
Critically
The new design fails completely to offer an always-on full-height list of calendars — invaluable when working with more than a handful of things.
The screenshot below, taken whilst evaluating BusyCal, shows a subset of my list of calendars (more than the average user, that's why an always-on list is so valuable). In shot: three accounts on a CalDAV server. I have other, lesser used accounts on other CalDAV servers. Also some use of Exchange servers. My own case is extreme but there's a guiding principle for a variety of use cases:
some users need to see the list of calendars all the time.
What's exmplified below has become impossible in iCal 5.0 (1535) in Mac OS X 10.7 (Build 11A511).
I plead with Apple, or a third party developer, to restore the sidebar list of calendars to iCal.
Apple's limitation is acceptable when the user has only two calendars —
— but for some other classes of user, completely inappropriate.
The percentage of users troubled by the loss of functionality may be less than the percentage enjoying the popover, but that in itself does not reduce the trouble, the frustration.
The sidebar was present in 10.4, removed in 10.5. Many users of 10.5 complained.
The sidebar reappeared in 10.6. Removal in 10.7 is almost completely dumbfounding.
I would like to say, "give it time — the more you use it, the more it will be appreciated" but for me this is not true. For some weeks I tried to work with this build of iCal and the more I used it, the greater the frustration. I grew to avoid iCal.
In most ways the feature set of iCal is unequalled. Support for many standards is excellent. The removal of the sidebar is a blight on this brilliance.
I plead with Apple or a third party developer to fix this at the earliest opportunity. I want Apple iCal — but user-friendly, not crippled.

It is getting connected to the Organisation network & showing "path does not exist,check the path and try again".
Whether, Is it possible to restore the site deleted from share point designer in site collection recycle bin. or
Is it possible to copy the site from Production server to test server.
Waiting for an response at the earlier.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Badri,
1.You could not restore site deleted from SharePoint designer in site collection, you can only restore the site deleted from
UI in site collection recycle bin, deleted from end user recycle bin.
2.You can export the site from production server, then import it to test server.

How could it be possible to completely restrict other users to view any sites through firefox browser with the help of password ?

I want complete control of firefox browser for my computer.
For example:
There is a similar feature in Internet Explorer which is called 'Content Adviser'.
To restrict others for viewing sites through Internet Explorer here is what has to be done:
1. Click to open Internet Explorer.
2. Click the Tools button, and then click Internet Options.
3. Click the Content tab, and then, under Content Advisor, do one of the following:
*Click Enable. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
*If you've previously enabled Content Advisor, click Settings, and then type the supervisor password. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
4. To allow others to view restricted content, click the General tab, and then select the Supervisor can type a password to allow users to view restricted content check box.
5. To allow others to view unrated content, select the Users can see websites that have no rating check box, and click OK.
6. If a supervisor password has not previously been set up for Content Advisor, you will be prompted to create one.

Looks like verdana is selected to 'off' in font book. Not sure if this could be the reason as to why i'm experiencing problems.

Can't access some secure sites through proxy?

can't access some secure sites through proxy server on osx it just keeps going local authority couldn't be contacted, i had the same problem with parental controls, but now that is off and its still doing it, is there a setting or something i need to enable?

In my original post, not today's, I had said I was having the issues on the Mini, running OSX 10.6.8 and Safari v.5.1.5 for my bank's pill pay. I should have been more specific as to which machine and OSX Safari browser I'm having the T-Mobile problem with. My mistake.
It is on both the MacMini and now the Air too. A moment ago, I was able to log in to my.t-mobile.com on the Air, but after putting into my Bookmarks folder, I can't do it anymore. The Log in button comes up greyed out instead of green.
I'm also still having trouble with my bank's bill pay section on both computers too.
I wonder if it's related to the saving of the log in info or putting in the Bookmark Folder?

Managed Metadata appearing in wrong columns after Restoring a site to a new Site Collection

I've restored a site with some libraries that have Managed Metadata (MM) columns from one site collection into another site collection inside the same web app so it should all subscribe to the same Managed Metadata
Service Application.
There are two MM columns in one library, one holds a single value which is what type of document it is, the other is a general tag field that allows the user to add multiple MM values to it if they want.
What we've found is that data has randomly disappeared on some MM fields, on others it appears in the wrong column, and in other cases it appears fine.
I used native out of the box GUI backup and restored with the command line,
I've done it twice with the same result, so it’s not a one off corruption during backup. It's the same story in a different doc library based on different term sets as well.
Of all the things to not work properly, MM was probably last on my list to expect, it's knocked my confidence in it a bit, as well as worried me about future upgrades.
If anyone has any ideas over what may be the cause of this, it would be appreciated, I've read lots of blogs, but nothing quite like this has cropped up.
Thanks,
Jon

Most of the ISV offerings will allow you to 'Migrate' content from one SP location to another. I'm pretty sure AvePoint and a few others have tools specifically developed for shifting bits and pieces around SharePoint farms.
It is a limitation but the ISV tools tend to do a good job and maintain nearly full consistency.
There's scripts around that can do much/most of the migration and you could always extend them to do the same things as the ISV migration tools however the cost to do so can quickly get to the same ballpark as buying an already made tool.
Paul is also in the London office, we often work together when projects requiring his brains and my beauty crop up.
