Update iWeb Blog page from iPhone

I'm brand new to the whole blog thing so please be patient here. I put a test blog page on my iWeb site and was wondering if there is a way to add to that blog on the go from my iPhone? I'd like to take pics of the days events and upload them to the blog along with some text. Is this possible?

The iPhone can't make new blog posts on iWeb-generated blogs, because it doesn't run iWeb. However, if you set the blog to accept comments, you can post a comment from your on blog from your phone; that's how I do updates when I'm in the field.
iWeb has an option where you can allow attachments to be included in comments. I never tried this with my iPhone, so I don't know if that would work or not (I'm not sure how you would locate the attachment on the phone). Of course, if you select this option, ANYONE can post attachments to your blog comments, which isn't necessarily a good thing unless your site is password-protected.
Of course, this only applied before Apple screwed everything up with the MobileMe transition; currently, no blog comments are working at all, and Apple has given no estimate of when it will be fixed.

    ...parse wordpress entries so that they appear "iWeb'sh" even though being created and maintained in Wordpress?

    I'm having similar problems with the automatic RSS Feed link that the iWeb blog page uses.
    I also figured I could create my own custom RSS icon/link for the page, but that still doesn't resolve the issue for the RSS Feed link that is automatically generated by the Firefox or Safari browsers I'm online with a MobileMe Support rep now (crossed fingers)

    please tell me what media i need or i need to update to transfer videos  from iphone to pc xp ... i used to i think but cannot anymore using kodak transfer, photos are ok

    See the Windows XP section near the bottom of iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    Also, note the following quote from near the top of that section:
    Windows XP can't import video files larger than 500 MB using Camera and Scanner Wizard. You can transfer these files from your device by selecting them in My Computer and dragging or copying the files to your computer's hard drive.

  • Firefox doesn't know what to do with iWeb blog pages.

    Why?
    Firefox doesn't know what to do with iWeb blog pages. All the entries are missing, and in their place are the words, Blog Summary Widget. Is this a problem with just my version of Firefox (like maybe I'm missing a plug-in or something?) or is this a failure on iWeb's part?

    There have been some quantum leaps in design and usefulness between FF1 and FF3. I'm not surprised that FF1 can't handle it. Download the latest FF for Mac and/or Windows here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html

  • Update iWeb blog from Internet

    Is there any way I can update my iWeb blog when I'm not with my macbook?

    I came across this solution: http://automator.us/iphone
    It is geared towards using the iPhone, but it would likely work from any email app.

  • IWeb blog pages versus TypePad, Blogger / Blogspot

    Hello bloggers,
    I want to start a blog to share my thoughts, ideas and photo snapshots.
    My question is: should I do that with iWeb and my dot Mac account, or use one of the on-line services like Blogger.com?
    What are the pros an cons of those two worlds? Any experiences you can share?

    Viviti is browser-based. I applied for and received a free account — there was nothing to download and I experimented with making some pages via Safari on my Mac. And I would be able to update those same pages via Internet Explorer on a PC, say, in an internet cafe.
    I think I'll wait till mobile.me is launched. Maybe that has something new.
    It doesn't look like the first incarnation of mobileme will have anything new as far as online creation of pages or blogs goes. For its feature set at launch in July, click here...
    But probably in the future we'll see improvements to include that type of functionality.

  • Post wiki/blog entries from iphone?

    i gather from what i have read of the docs, that the default presentation of blogs and wikis on the iphone is read-only.
    i'm wondering if i might be able to pick up a blog-editing tool (along the lines of ecto or something, but simpler and for the iphone) that would make it possible to make quick posts - i.e. to take a photo or video and post it to a blog from the iphone with a short caption.
    i'm kind of surprised that apple chooses to feature "iphone support" on the page describing the snow leopard collaboration services, but that their idea of supporting the iphone is so limited - especially since when they introduced the iphone 3GS, they demo'd uploading videos to youtube.
    anyone have any ideas? i see in the wikiserver documentation that the server is supposed to support the AtomPub and MetaWebLog API's, but then i don't see any mention of support for apple-snow-leopard-wiki-server (what is it actually called anyway?) in the documentation of any tools in the itunes store.
    Blogwriter - bad reviews. no mention of supporing os x server wikis/blogs.
    Wordpress - right idea, but afaik, this works only for wordpress blogs?
    Blog with iBlogger! - by the folks who do ecto for the mac. looks vaguely promising, but does not list support for 10.6 server blogs and has mix of positive/negative reviews. also costs $10.
    Blog Press - similar in scope to Blog with iBlogger!. $3. some bad reviews.

    Is it possible to add a new blog entries from an iPhone ?
    No, you can't do anything to an iWeb blog without using iWeb. Use something else for your blog.

  • IPhoto Album updating iWeb Album page

    OK .. I'm lost! I created an iWeb Album page and a new matching iPhoto album to put the photos in. Now I've added new photos to the iPhoto album and they don't show up in iWeb. There is a lot of work on the iWeb page with a lot of descriptions etc and I don't want to have to delete the page and drag in the new updated album. What am I missing? How to I sync any newly added pictures in the iPhoto album with the iWeb album?
    Thanks...

    The iWeb pages don't automatically update like iPhoto Web Galleries do. You will have to add the new photos to the iWeb photo page and republish that page.
    If you were using a iPhoto Web Gallery in an iWeb page then all you would have to do is click on the publish button in iPhoto and the gallery would be updated when accessed via iWeb.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Automate iWeb Blog Posts from Mail

    Would it possible to use Automator to fetch text from an email with a keyword or from a certain sender that would then be put into a blog post in iWeb? I know that there is an "iWeb Action Pack" for Automator that gives it similar functionality when adding pictures or movies.
    I ask because I'm looking to be able to post blog entries from a Windows computer at on the go or elsewhere. Does that seem feasible? If not, why not? If so, would you please suggest a reference I could use?
    Thanks in advance!

    i have the same problem. and i also want to add a share button on every post so people can share it through their status on facebook. do you know how to do it? anyone?

  • I updated to 09 pages from 08. Will my documents now be in 09 or must I move them

    09 pages shows in my apps, but also 08 pages still shows as an app as well. It also appears some of my documents in 08 did not move to 09. Is there something I need to do?  Do I now need to also delete Pages 08?

    T,
    When you open a Pages 08 doc in Pages 09 and then Save it, it becomes a Pages 09 Doc. Until you do that, it's still a Pages 08 doc.
    Make sure that you don't have a Pages 08 icon on your Dock, and other than that, you should be good. If you open Pages from the Dock and check Pages > About Pages and find that it is Pages 08, then pull that icon off the Dock. There's really no need to delete Pages 08 from your system.
