Transferring website from old computer into iWeb

My hard drive crashed the other day and I just got a new one put in. I had a website created, but can't figure out how to set the old page up in iWeb to edit it.
Anyone know how to make the old page accessible in iWeb?

The files for your iWeb page are stored in User/Library/Application Support/iWeb and called something like Domain.sites2. You would need to copy it from your old hard drive to your new one. This of course is probably not possible if the old drive has crashed so you will have to restore it from a backup. If you don't have a backup file I suspect you will have to start again as I don't think there is any other way of doing it. (By the way the file in question is a package file so if you want to see what is inside it you need to right click on it and choose "Show Package Contents). Best of luck!

  • HT4527 When transferring iTunes from old computer to new computer, even though all of songs were copied over, not all of them went to iTunes, some appear to be stored elsewhere. How can I find these songs, and how do I transfer them to iTunes?

    When transferring iTunes from old computer to new computer, all my songs were copied over, but not all of them were stored in iTunes. It appears they are on the computer somewhere, but not on iTunes. Where are these other songs likely to be, and how can I get them onto iTunes? Because of this problem, Apple will not allow me to update my iPhone.

    You may/must have had music files stored outside of your iTunes library.
    I'd recommend going to the Finder and then via the search box look for files with mp3 aif m4a aac etc. depending on the music format your digital music had. With the list of files shown you should be able to learn which files were stored outside of your music > itunes folder
    Chances are they could be burried somewhere under your documents, downloads, desktop, ... we all have different storage and organization habits.
    Then when you find the missing files, on the new computer you can do add to library and go to the folder on the other computer where the missing files are - if your systems are networked - or sneak them over using a USB thumb drive or portable hard drive if you have lots of files, or if you like to have an extra backup of that music, copy to optical disc.

  • Transferring pictures from old computer to new computer

    I purchased a flash drive but I don't really know what to do when transferring pics from one computer to another.  Help!

    Your first job is to find where the pictures are on your computer. Once you find those files, you need to drag them to the drive, which should be under My Computer. Then, just do the reverse to move them to the other computer.

  • Transferring Files from Old Computer to New Computer

    I upgraded my iTunes to 9.1.1 on my old computer (and new computer). On the old computer, I have everything organized in playlists. When I transferred all my music from my old computer to my new computer (via ipod), my playlists do not show up. All the songs are in Music on the top of iTunes. Is there anyway to transfer the itunes exactly as it appears on my old computer to my new computer? Would a USB transfer cable take care of this problem? Please help

    Hi there,
    what you did is only transfer all of the MEDIA files into your new computer's iTunes. There is no problem with doing this, but all the media files include are well, the media obviously, and the tagging info (which displays name/artist/album/etc.) If all you do is move the media files onto the new computer and load iTunes, a new copy of iTunes (with no playlists/ratings/play counts and new settings) will load up, and put your content in it.
    If you wish to preserve your playlists/ratings/etc, you need to import the iTunes Library File as well. This is by default located in your iTunes directory. So instead of just moving everything from "iTunes Media" (default location), it is best to move the ENTIRE "iTunes" folder, with the Library file and your media files.
    However, one trick may still work. If you transfer JUST the Library file over (iTunes Library.itl), transfer it to your new computer, REPLACE the current iTunes Library file with the old one (so delete the new one, put the old one there). Open iTunes while holding SHIFT down the whole time, until a screen pops up asking you to find a library. Select choose library, and go to the location of the Library file we just moved. Select it, and if all goes well your playlists should be there!
    You might come across one issue however, and that is if you changed the relative location of your media files. For example if you USED to have it on an external drive "my Music" and now it is on the internal drive in a folder labeled "iTunes Music", the computer may not be able to find your songs because it is looking in the wrong place. If that happens, and you are willing to lose your play counts and ratings, it actually might be more of a time saver to start over again and make your playlists from scratch.

  • Transferring ITunes from old computer

    Hi folks....I need some help please.
    I had iTunes on my old PC. I bought myself a new laptop and wanted to transfer my iTunes library across to my new laptop. I created back up discs for my entire library and restored it on the new laptop. Everything worked out fine and had no problems until recently. I went to open iTunes and my entire library had been wiped off. It said that my ipod can only be synced with one iTunes library or PC at a time. This is fair enough as I have not deleted my old library yet, but its not in use.
    I went to restore again on my new laptop, but the songs/videos etc are not saving into the library. I checked to see if the files are still there and they are, but they are not going into the library for some reason.
    Somebody PLEASE help...I have had several problems with iTunes, but this is by far the worst!!
    Any help would be greatly received, thank you.

    Hi there jenshep, I suppose this is a pretty negative message. I have been trying for two months now to transfer my music tracks from my old computer, on to my lap top (which is three years old)Until I achieve this Im not going out to buy a new computer. I have acted on all the advice posted from like minded people. I have e-mailed the i-Tunes help line, who refer me to section this paragraph that, to no avail. I visited 'PC.World' as they addvertise a service "transfer all data from your old-to new computer £30" However when I asked if they could definately transfer my music library, they became hesitant and unsure and said if they were unable to transfer the complete library I would get my £30 back, which pales into insignificance when you consider the money I would first have to put out for a new computer. I used to be with Sony 'Sonic Stage' However i-Tunes swept thier market away So I bought into i-tunes. I backed up all 12,000 music tracks on CDs, that took nearly 500 CDs. then to my cost I found i-Tunes would not read my CDs.about halve of which I had recorded from my old vynal collection A message would come up saying "You Have inserted a blank CD" The CDs. worked perfectly fine on my music center & portable CD. players. I still live in hope of transferring my collection, but I don't think I will live that long. Hope I haven't depressed you.
    Cheers for now Vince.

  • Transferring files from old computer with fire wire

    I'm transferring files from my old computer to my new one. The old one has three hard drives. Everything from the startup drive transferred OK over fire wire, but the new computer doesn't see the 2nd and 3rd hard drives on the old one. Is there a way to link these? Thanks!

    Click here and follow the instructions, setting up FireWire networking from System Preferences if desired. FireWire Target Disk mode will only connect to the master ATA drive on the ATA 0 bus, and will shut down the computer if there's nothing at that location.

  • Transferring music from old computer using ipod

    I recently transferred music from my old computer to my new computer using my ipod by following the directions in apple support (article 300173.) I already had music in itunes on my new computer when I added the music from my old computer. Now all the music that I had loaded prior to the transfer comes up with a message "original file could not be found." Have I lost this music for good?
    MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.9)
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    If you dragged the file called 'iTunes' in to the music folder in the finder and it asked 'do you wish to overite' then it has probably overwritten the folder tha t already existed
    (with the new music in).
    If you haven't emptied you trash it might be in there, but don't click retore the trash just drag the folder onto the desktop.
    Hope this helps.

  • Transfering email from old computer

    Does anybody have advice about transfering email (from Mail.app) from my old laptop to my new MacBook. I have many email accounts set up in Mail and I do not want to a) manually reinput all the settings and rules for each mailbox, or b) rebuild my mailboxes from the server (i.e. download all my emails again).
    I have seen the posts about using the migration wizard and I realize that the general consensus is "just follow the directions" BUT in my case I only want to transfer email.
    Any suggestions?

    I transferred my mail from my mini to my macbook and any message older than a few days says
    "The message from <[email protected]> <[email protected]> concerning “Tackboards!” has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it.
    What does this mean? I copied the entire library/mail file over to my new mac and now I don't have all the emails that in my inbox. If I look in my folders, the information is still there though.
    Any help would be great. This is a work computer issue.
    Thanks,
    Karl

  • Transferring ipod from old computer to new computer

    I have recently purchased a MacBook afer many years of owning a PC. I currently have my ipod connected to the old PC and would like to transfer it to my new computer. I have transferred the music files to itunes on the new computer but the ipod is still only syncing properly with the old computer.
    How do i properly change the ipod from one computer to another?

    You will need to re-sync to your new computer. This will erase all the files on the iPod and put what is in your MacBooks library in.
    Be sure you have all the music off the iPod you want save. I like to use YamiPod to do this. It allows you to pull everything off your iPod in case there is some music there that isn't on your old computer.
    I hope you enjoy your MacBook as much as I enjoy mine. Makes me wonder why I didn't switch to Macs sooner.

  • New computer, how do i get all the music from old computer into new itunes?

    Easiest way is to copy the entire iTunes folder onto an external hard drive and then copy it onto the new computer. Google your query. Lots of step by step instructions out there

  • HT4527 Transfering music from old computer to new computer

    I followed the directions using my ipod as a hard drive to copy the itunes folder from my old computer and transfered it to My Music on the new computer.  The folder is there with all the songs but when I open itunes, the music isn't there.  What am I doing wrong.

    Have you told your computer's iTunes via File > Add To Library that they are there ?

  • Transfering Music from old computer to new MBP laptop HELP!

    I nees to transfer ALL of my iTunes music to my new MBP, can I just put all of my music onto a flash drive and then deauthorize that computer, then put songs from flashdrive on the MBP and authorize that computer? If I do this will my music still be organized like it was on my ild PC? Like album name, artist, title, etc? Answer ASAP please and thanks in advance!

    Okay. What do you want from this process? Do you want iTunes to appear exactly as it did on your old computer?  The way I have described several times before tells you how to do this.  Copy the WHOLE ITUNES FOLDER from your Finder (you do not say what source computer) or Windows browser or whatever, to the flash drive.  Drag it from the flash drive to your new computer and replace the iTunes folder on the new computer (I presume you have nothing in it now).  Start iTunes and everything will appear identical to your old computer.  Playlists, artwork, everything.  Three major steps. Drag, (move flash drive to other computer), drag, open iTunes.
    The video tells you in a somewhat long-winded (and in my opinion not necessarily best) way to end up copying just your media files to a flash drive.  It then adds them all back into iTunes where if all works well iTunes will end up processing them as though it has never seen them before. If that's what you want, fine, because that's what it does.  If the tags are correct on the files you will see the names, etc., but with the qualifiers I mentioned before.  You say you want them organized like they were on the old computer.  For most people this means ratings and playcounts and playlists.  That is not what you will get if you drag just media from drive to drive via the flash drive.  You will only accomplish that using the whole folder method I have described.  If you do not want your old playlists well, I guess you can do the video method, but even then my method is easier and you can always delete unwanted playlists.
    The video method is essentially the same process if the source computer is a Mac, again if your goals is to start over with a fresh library but your old media files.

  • Transferring music from old computer to new

    I lost all of my music while trying to sync my Ipod touch to my new computer. However, I still have my Itunes library on my old computer, which is on its last leg. This includes many songs copied from CD's, which would take hours to duplicate. Is there any way of copying the Itunes library other than with a USB device as the USB ports don't seem to be working? It doesn't seem to be recognizing the ethernet cable either, so CD?

    - You can burn to CD and then import from that CD on the new computer.
    - You could also take the HD out of the computer and place it in an external enclosure that has a USB connection and then connect to the your computer and import.
