Transfering iWeb files between computers

I bought a new iMac and used migration to move all my apps & files off my laptop. However, my iWeb files didn't transfer; I want to keep my site updated using my desktop machine.
Any suggestions how to transfer these files?

iWeb files don't transfer by themselves. You have to do it. Go to your old computer and get the file.

  • Transporting iweb files between computers

    Hi!
    Does anybody know how to transport iweb files between computers? If I have a site that I want to put on another computer without deleting the sites on that computer. What do I do? I have discovered that i can make many copies the Domain file that I have found in the Library/Applications Support/iWeb folder. Is this the only way?
    Thanks!
    /Chris

    All you need to do is copy the Domain.sites2 file that's in your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the same folder on the other computer.
    If you plan to manage the site from both computers then this MacWorld article will be of interest: Managing an iWeb site from multiple Macs.

  • Move iweb file between computers

    I created a blog website on my laptop and now want to move those files to my iMac.  How do I do that?

    The file you need to move to the other computer is names Domain.sites2 and is located in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder.

  • Transferring iWeb pages between computers

    I have an iWeb application on my iMac with established pages... I have a new powerbook with iWeb and I would like to use the iWeb on this computer to publish to my established site. How do I import from my old computer to my new one??? THANKS!

    In ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb
    you'll find a file named domain
    copy that to your other computer (into the same named
    directory of course).
    Thank you Mark, I will try this! For a friend I created some webpages in iWeb so she can update them herself (I made the rest of the site in an HTMLeditor). We tried sharing the files this weekend but it didn't work.
    I will let you now the result in a day or two, thinking that would be nice information for anyone else who comes across the same problem.

  • Transferring KN files between computers

    I have a MacPro desktop and a G5 laptop, both soon to have iWork '08. I wish to create the presentation on the MP and display it on the G5. How do I package the presentation and related files (such as QT movies) so that I can copy it onto the G5?
    Also, do I have to have the presentation's particular theme installed on the G5? I am using a third-party theme from Brian Peat's company.

    In the Advanced Options: settings in the Save dialog box, choose
    *+Copy audio and movies into document+*
    to copy audio and movie files into the document. If you'd also like to carry the theme graphics with you, choose
    *+Copy theme images into document+*
    as well. Installing the third-party theme on both computers would probably mean smaller file sizes to port over, so that may be something to think about.

  • How do I drag and drop files between computers when using Home Sharing in ITunes?

    How can I drag music files between computers while using Home Sharing? An older version of ITunes had a Home Sharing icon in the column browser near the playlist so it was easy to drag and drop.

    Hello cacalenni,
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. I understand that you wish to learn how to import songs using Home Sharing in the new iTunes. The following resource should assist you in doing so:

  • How do I share files between computers (mac's) on the same wireless network?

    How do I share files between computers (mac's) on the same wireless network?

    Turn on File Sharing in System Preferences - Sharing, then you should be able to see them in the other Macs' Finder sidebars (under Shared). Click on them, click Connect As, and log in with the user credentials you're sharing from.

  • How to share files between computers and TC

    What is the best way to share content/files between computers (iMac and MacBook Pro)?
    I thought about using Time Capsule for this...is this NOT wise?
    Thanks

    What is the best way to share content/files between computers (iMac and MacBook Pro)?
    The simplest way to do this would be to enable File Sharing on both Macs.
    On each Mac....
    Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
    Open Sharing
    Enter a check mark next to File Sharing
    Now when you open the Finder or Macintosh HD, you will see the "other" Mac and you will be able to access files/folders, etc. on the other computer.
    I thought about using Time Capsule for this...is this NOT wise?
    The Time Capsule was designed to work with the Time Machine application to back up your Mac(s). As such, the TC will make a complete copy of each Mac on the first backup and backup any changes after that to keep a complete timeline of each Macs files. Each computer normally will only be able to access the backups for that given computer.
    While it is possible to store normal files or folders on the Time Capsule disk, this is not generally recommended as there will eventually be a struggle between Time Machine and the files on the disk as the drive begins to fill up. The other thing to keep in mind is that access to the drive for "normal" files will be quite slow.

  • Transfering Bridge (and files) between computers

    I will soon be switching over to a new computer, which means overhauling my files and unfortunately Bridge. I know that my labels and keywords will transfer since they are attached to the files themselves in the metadata, but what about my collections? I have smart collections which would rebuild themselves once I re-constructed them on the new computer, but I also have some manually built collections that I don't fully remember the criteria for dragging certain pictures in them. I am not sure how to transfer either type of collection beyond having both computers open Bridge and manually reconstruct them. Since I am 1:1 transfering my files for the most part (i.e. keeping the same folder hierarchy), the new computer will have the same relative paths which might work to my advantage or might make no difference whatsoever. Any ideas on exporting/importing collections and other features of Bridge that may not be readily transferable or that are not stored in the metadata?

    You might want to explore the concept of "build and export cache" in tools/cache.  Not all data is written to the file, some is held in an XMP file, which has same name as file.  You want them both to transfer at same time.
    To see if you have XMP files click on view/show hidden files.
    Don't know much about collections.

  • Moving files between computers

    Hello, friends, can anyone plz advice me how best to move a file from one Mac to another? I thinkin there must be some kind of cable I could purchase for this. I want to move a one hour IMovie 6 movie to a larger Mac to burn on IDVD. After 20 continous hours of attempting to burn it on my smaller Mac, I gave up the ship and force quit IDVD. The small Mac Book 2.1 say I have 14 gb available in IMovie for this job whereas the larger, newer Mac has 115 gb! This must be the best way to go!?
    Thanks a ton and a half!

    It's actually very easy, all you need is a single FireWire cable. Here are the instructions right from the Mac's Help menu:
    Transferring files between two computers using FireWire
    You can use FireWire to connect your computer to another Mac and have one of the computers appear as an external hard disk on the other computer. This is sometimes called Target Disk Mode.
    To transfer files using FireWire:
    Shut down the first computer and leave the second computer on.
    Connect the two computers using a 6-pin to 6-pin FireWire cable. (If both computers have higher-speed FireWire 800 ports in addition to the standard FireWire 400 ports, you can use a 9-pin to 9-pin cable with the FireWire 800 ports to transfer data at higher speeds.)
    Open System Preferences, click the Startup Disk, and click Target Disk Mode. (Or, start up the first computer while holding down the T key.) A disk icon for the first computer appears on the desktop on the second computer. Drag files to and from the disk to transfer them.
    When you finish, eject the first computer's disk by dragging its icon to the Trash. (While you drag, the Trash icon changes to an Eject icon.)
    Push the power button on the first computer to shut it down and disconnect the FireWire cable.
    If the computer to which you connect your computer is running Mac OS 9, it must have FireWire version 2.3.3 or later installed. Use Apple System Profiler (located in /Applications/Utilities) to check the version of FireWire installed. If it has an older version, get an update at the Apple FireWire website at www.apple.com/firewire.

  • Project Files Between Computers

    How do you switch final cut projects between computers? I have FCP 5 on both computers and I take the project file copy it onto a hard drive along with the captured material-capture scratch-and I get an Error 41 message and the project doesn't load.
    Please help.

    Run software updates on both systems. Each Final Cut application must be the same version.

  • Suddenly slow transfer of files between computers over LAN

    All, I have the following: HP Desktop, XP Pro, SP3, with Maxtor external HD Dell Laptop, VISTA Business, SP2 Both 32 bit Both running Norton Internet Security 2011, including firewall Linksys WRT54GL router V1.1, connected to DSL The external HD is configured to share over the network. I use it to move files between the twp computers, and to access the Internet. It has been working fine for about 3 years. Everything is still working, except that the speed of transfer, either direction, between the laptop and the external HD has dropped to nearly zero. Files that used to take a minute or so to transfer now literally take hours, and depending on the software, may time out. The problem is not so much the speed over the network, but that the data is only sent in short bursts, with long, many seconds, delays between. As the file progresses, the process gets worse. Typically, it takes as long to send the last 10 % as the first 90%. In the past, the data was sent in a continuous stream. The access between the laptop and the Internet is still fine. I am in a rural area, and have verified that there is no other WiFi to interfere. Using my backup program, I have rolled both my computers back to a time when everything was working. The problem still exists. That seems to point to the router. I have flashed the most recent firmware and reconfigured, but not help. Google turns up lots of hits, but nothing that fits this. Any suggestions on what to do next? For now, I am just swapping the USB drive physically. Alan

    Try to reset the router and reconfigure it.
    Press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds. Release the reset button and wait for 30 seconds. Power cycle the router and reconfigure it.
    Change the MTU size to 1365. Save the settings.
    Go to Wireless tab and click on Advanced wireless settings. Change the Beacon Interval to 75, RTS and fragmentation threshold to 2304. Save the settings. Power cycle the router and see if that helps you.
    Disable or turn OFF the firewall or Anti-virus software on your computer.

  • How do you sync files between computers

    I want to sync files between Macbook Pro (2011) and IMac. File structure for Pictures needs to be Identical, not sure what is best method. Do not want to try until I have a good plan.
    Ashleyriverman

    Hello AshleyRiverman,
    It sounds like you have a directory of folders that contain photos in a specific organization that you want to copy to another computer. You can enable File Sharing to be able to access the photos from one computer on another, and even allow the viewing computer to be able to add photos or delete them, thereby keeping them the same across both computers. This article will help you get that set up and configure the permissions for it:

  • Transferring iweb files back to Home Page

    I have read many of the discussion about PCs not being able to view iweb files. So, for all of those poor folks with whom I need to share webspages o how can I transfer my files BACK to HomePage files (not create a url link). Apparently, HomePage works for them but iWeb does not.
