Strange! Cannot update extensive, published iWeb site.

I've been trying to research a problem in Discussions similar to my own but cannot come across a satisfactory answer.
For the past two weeks, I've experienced very slow "Publish" updating of my extensive iWeb site. In the last 24 hours, I've been unable to update the webiste at all. Here's the error message:
"Can’t create the file 'shapeimage2_link2.png.' The disk may be damaged, full, or you may not have sufficient access privileges."
Mind you, I'm well sort of my iDisk capacity, have the current version of iWeb, am running a reliable high-speed connection and have not experienced any hard disk problems that I'm aware of.
I have tried trashing the username/application support/iWeb/Domain file and letting iWeb build a new Domain file — to no avail. I've quit and rebooted — to no avail. I've run Disk Utility — to no avail.
Suggestions? I'm at wit's end!

Thanks, James, for your always helpful replies and information.
Paul, here are two things I tried with some success. I deleted new blog material — those which hadn't published — and added, then published, each new blog one at a time. Somewhere along the line, one of the new blogs apparently corrupted the ability to publish all of them at once. Also, I launched iWeb, put the Domain file (username/application support/iWeb/Domain) in the trash then published. When prompted to save the new Domain file, I chose the folder where the old one resided. Subsequent publishes have gone a bit smoother.
Still, one wishes iWeb were easier and more reliable for updates.

    It's a really bad idea to post your email address - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove it. (Even though I've now noticed you mis-spelled it! - anyway, never post your address in a forum.)
    You have a site here: http://virginiagordon.com/www.virginiagordon.com/WELCOME.html
    If that's not the page you are having trouble with, what is that page's URL?

  • Published iWeb site the hyperlinks formatting

    When I view my published iWeb site the hyperlinks do not all have the same formatting as they did in iWeb. How can I resolve this?

    Hello, I am using iWeb 3.0.4 (601). I publish the website to my local machine (from iWeb) so I can send it off to someone more technical to publish to the internet and manage all of the 'optimisation' etc. This is where I am seeing it is not as it looks within iWeb. Can I 'send' it to you somehow? Thanks for your response.

  • Updating & Editing an iWeb Site

    I am making a website using iWeb for a PC User and uploading it and giving them the exported iWeb file. Can they update or edit the site I create for them using a PC program such as www.pagebreeze.com or another PC Program? Do you have any suggestions? I won't be uploading it to .mac
    Thanks,
    Flippy

    No, they can't.
    Pages created in iWeb cannot be edited outside of the application, in any serious way. Some post processing changes can be made, but not efficiently for a PC user.
    Great opportunity to tell them what a great operating system OSX is....

  • How can I publish iWeb site in root directory in place of a prior site?

    Hi there... I have created a family web site and published it to my .mac account. The problem is that I had previously published another site and that site remains in the 'root' directory of my account. Practically, this means that if anyone types in:
    web.mac.com/[username]
    ... they will get my old site instead of the site i wish them to see... Is there any way I can move my new site so that typing the more simplified 'root' address (above) will bring up the site I wish for them to view?

    Do you have both sites in iWeb together? If so, then simply look in the Site Organizer, select the site that you want to come up by the short URL and drag it to the top of the organizer. iWeb will make whatever site is at the top of the Site Organizer the default site. You should probably do a "Publish ALL to .Mac" after doing this so that all the files are in the right place. So once you do this you can access the default site with the short URL http://web.mac.com/yourname and then you can access the second site by using its URL directly... http://web.mac.com/yourname/iWeb/sitetwoname You could also provide links from site one to site two and vice versa to "link" the two sites together.

  • Anyone know how to publish iWeb site to .mac groups?

    Hi all
    This is my first message here... So... Be patient plz
    I'm afraid that I know the answer, but I hope that someone can tell me(us) more...
    Is it true that it is NOT possible to publish a site from iWeb to a .mac group?
    Why this feature is missing???
    I've heard that this was present in iWeb 07. Is it true?
    Anyone knows if it will be available in a future patch??
    sigh, I've just buyed a .mac accounts to publish project for private groups... :(((
    Thanks to all for support. Excuse me for my bad English
    Mayran

    It's Sad.
    Groups are, in my opinion, the best feature of .mac account.
    Project, club, private site of people... great things.
    It's why I have payed for this account.
    But if you can't use the integration of mac to build up information
    it's very useless and to me it doesn't appear too professional
    from apple to cut off this feature.
    My fault, I haven't seen this particular information.
    Anyway thanks for the information
    I hope apple will reintegrate this feature

  • Publishing iWeb Site on a Personal Domain

    Hi,
    I'm having a lot of trouble publishing my site to a personal domain. I am using iWeb 08 and am publishing via MobileMe and domains.com is my host. For some reason, I just can't get the site to publish on my personal domain. My personal domain is registered on MobileMe and the CNAME is programmed into the domains.com DNS management area. What's going on that's not allowing it to appear?? The site is just blank...please help!

    Works fine for me too, but not if you place the www before your domain name. If you want this too, you may need to go back to your DNS settings and set up a new CNAME for your domain name that includes the www part too, but only if you want to.

  • Changes in iWEB '08 are NOT making it to my published iWeb site

    Never had this issue with earlier versions. I run iWeb to make changes in pages that I have had up for months. iWeb says the changes are published. When I go here:
    http://web.mac.com/tyreeford/Site/Resume.html
    The changes are there.
    When I use Safari and the link:
    http://web.mac.com/tyreeford/iWeb/Site/Resume.html
    I get the old unchanged version.
    I have been using iWeb the whole time. Why did the URL change!? I didn't change it.
    Thanks,
    Ty Ford

    From '06 to '08 the way iWeb handles the publishing thus the url changed.
    web.mac.com/username/sitename/pagename.html is the new '08 url
    http://web.mac.com/tyreeford/Site/Resume.html
    you didn't change it, iWeb '08 changed it. Basically because the /iweb/ was useless and only made the url longer, looks much better now, don't you think so?

  • How do I publish iWeb site with Cyberduck??

    Hi there,
    I am trying and trying, but I can't figure it out. Can anybody help me and tell me how to publish an iWeb site with Cyberduck??
    Thank you so much!
    Marc

    Okay, this is not complicated at all.
    When you want to publish an iWeb site to some place other than MobileMe, then you publish to a folder of your choice on your hard drive and iWeb will create all the files needed. It will create one folder that has the same name that you called your website inside iWeb plus an index.html page. So if you called your site Site in iWeb, then when you publish to a folder, your folder will be called Site, plus the index.html page.
    You then need to open Cyberduck and enter your ftp info, plus your username and password and then you click on open connection. Once you click on open connection you will be connected to your hosting service and there will be a folder there called Public_html. You then need to upload your folder plus index.html file from your hard drive and once these have been uploaded, you just drag and drop them into the Public_html folder on your web space. To upload in Cyberduck, just click on Action at the top and click on Upload. Once you click here you will be shown all the files on your hard drive and all you need do is go to the folder where you site is stored and then click on index.html and it will be uploaded and then click on Site or whatever your site is called and upload this and it will be uploaded.
    It is not difficult at all, but you do need to know what you are doing.

  • Need to update another users iweb site

    I wan't to take over updating duties on another user's iweb site. They can't handle it so they'd like to defer to me. Is there a way to do this?

    You will need to obtain their Domain.sites2 file from their computer. It will be located in their User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. Copy it to your Desktop, rename it to represent the site name, "Site_Name.sites2", and place in your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. Then drag that iWeb folder into the left hand pane of any Finder window so you can easily access the contents of that folder and select the site you want to work on.

  • Error when Publishing iWeb Site (iWeb 1.1.2)

    I am consistently unable to publish my website. The following is the most recent error:
    An error occurred while publishing file “/Web/Sites/iWeb/Site/Worcester, MAfiles/_MG0611.jpg”.
    Before this one, it was a different jpg image that caused the publish to fail. I feel like three pictures have made the publish fail. I have done nothing different, I just try to keep publishing.
    These are the most recent changes that might have effected something:
    1. I upgraded to Leopard.
    2. I edited three pages, removed one page, and added two additional pages.
    3. I did not finish publishing after these changes because I had to board a plane.
    4. I uploaded pictures to my computer, and then ran out of space.
    5. I had troubles, but with Apple Discussion help (thank you) I was able to install my external hard drive, utilize Time Machine, and free up space on my hard drive. (I now have 21G on my internal drive available)
    6. I moved iTunes music folder to external
    7. I added more photos to iphoto, and added another page.
    I have tried to publish several times unsuccessfully. Twice, my network went down. The other times, I get a file error (always a different file). And these were pages I did not even touch.
    My entire website is now "red", meaning it needs to be published.
    HELP!!!! I am sooo distressed.

  • 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

    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.

  • HT1338 Publishing iWeb Site

    I'm using iWeb 3.0.4 and I can't seem to publish the site even though I have an icloud account. When I publish it opens the system preference window and nothing happens. What am I missing?

    If you’re looking for a good hosting I would really recommend you to use IX Web hosting . I have been using them for my own iWeb websites since 2008. I know that it’s working great and that their customer support is great too.
