Using new/different mac to update my site

I made my web site a couple of years ago using my Mac Book Pro. The Mac Book broke, I have a new Imac.
On my laptop my site was available as soon as I opened iweb. Using this new machine I can't figure out how
to get past making a new site. I did not transfer any of my old date from the lap top. So how do I open iweb and
access my existing webpage ? Thanks Dave

Were you able to recover any of your files from your old MBP?  If so did you recover a file named Domain.sites2 that was located in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder? 
If not then you'll have to rebuild your site from scratch.  However, Chapter 2.3 on the iWeb FAQ.org site has tips on using some of the existing files, image, audio, video, etc., from the published site in the recreation of the site.
If you do have that domain file somewhere in your backed up files move it to your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder on the new iMac and launch iWeb.

  • Using a different .Mac account in iPhoto

    We have a .Mac family pack. My wife and I each have a personal account and we would like to use a completely different .Mac account to post our web galleries, but I don't want to have to create a new user on my Mac just to use iPhoto. Is there a way that iPhoto can use a different .Mac account than the one associated with my user account on my computer to publish galleries?
    Thanks,

  • How to backup files to ensure future access and use using a different mac

    I recently attempted access backed up data on my LaCie drive from a different Mac notebook. I was blocked. I didn't write down the message, but it essentially advised that the data was locked and I wasn't allowed access. I wasn't given a chance to enter any kind of system password to bypass the lock.
    Here is my problem: I recently spilled some wine into my keyboard. Since then, the system has slowed to a crawl and occasionally weird things begin to happen, regardless of which software I am using [eg iPhoto, Quickbooks, idvd, Photoshop, email, and even dashboard]. I know I am very lucky to have any access to my files at all. While I do, I need to back everything up so that I can have access to my files later on. I plan to have my Mac serviced this week. I don't know if it needs to be replaced, or whether it can be repaired.
    *+If it can't be repaired, how do I back up my files to ensure future access and use using a different mac?+*

    I'll check the example you linked. I appreciate you responding.
    I was not trying to boot another system at all. Actually, I was working on a newer mac laptop. I attempted to load a dvd I had created in my idvd on the other mac from the LaCie. I was using a mac because I knew it had all the iLife software I needed in order to work with my idvd components. Honestly though, I don't know if the mac I was using is intel based. I hadn't considered it. Does Apple sell macbooks with intel? No matter.
    So, let's see -- I was using the other powerbook to read the LaCie via firewire -- and yes, the LaCie has its own power supply.
    If I remember correctly, the denial I received [when attempting to load the idvd file] knew that I had created it. I got the feeling that it wasn't allowing me into the file for security reasons. I just don't remember setting security. Incidentally, I just checked and I do not have a master password set nor do I have FileVault protection turned on.
    I'll check that link you sent. Thx again, M~

  • Using a different .Mac name?

    Is it possible to set iWeb to publish to a different .Mac name than the one that is currently registered under system preferences? I have one for work and one for personal and I'd like to be able to edit my Personal site on my work computer as well.
    Thanks

    You just change the name and password in system preferences/.Mac. iWeb publishes to whatever account is listed there. You might find it easier to set up a separate user account where these prefs would always be set to your other account so you don't have to keep switching it.

  • Limited In Establishing an A/V  Connection Using New 2008 Mac Pro 8-Core

    I will apologize in advance for the long and complicated story that follows.
    I purchased this 8-core Mac Pro two weeks ago. I installed all software fresh on the Mac Pro and transferred no data from an iMac I had previously been using. The Mac Pro was running fine and I was able to have a video iChat with one of my friends across town who has a mid-2007 iMac with no difficulty. I had initially set up my Mac Pro with file sharing turned on so that I could exchange files with my wife who took possession of my mid-2007 iMac. A few days went by and my wife decided to turn off file sharing on my Mac Pro. Suddenly my Mac Pro would not boot at all, showing the spinning black pinwheel and the silver screen with the Apple logo for more than 30 minutes. I tried to repair permissions on the Mac HD, but I got a red error message that the permissions could not be repaired. Interestingly enough Verify Disk ran and report no problems with the Mac HD.
    At this point I did a full erase of the Mac HD, and did a complete restore from Time Machine. After a few minor changes like having to reimport my e-mail, my Mac Pro seemed to be working fine again. However, today I received a iChat video invitation from my friend across town, and when I responded, I soon got a "failure to establish communication" message. I then tried to establish a video chat with my friend. After watching the spinning black wheel in the iChat dialog (which had good video), I soon got the same message. He also got this message on his end. We were able to establish Text Message communication through iChat, but we could not establish either video or audio. My friend's Mac was working fine in iChat because he had just been iChatting using video with one of his friends. The problem thus was firmly on my end.
    At this point, I tried to video iChat from my Mac Pro with my wife in the next room on her iMac. It worked perfectly and we had both good audio and video. However, every time I attempted to iChat with my friend across town with, I always soon received the message that the connection could not be made bacause my friend had not responded, which of course, he had.
    I deleted all of my user preferences related to iChat (four if I recall correctly) but this did not help.
    In summary, I have limited use of video iChatting from my Mac Pro only with my wife next door on her iMac. Incidentally, I went over to her iMac, logged on, and instantly had a video iChat going with my friend across town.
    I have just spent 3 hours on the phone with Apple Suport and went through several layers of tech support. In the end, their only recommendation was to do a complete erase and reinstallation of the OS. I am not willing, at least at this time, to do this since I have every one of Apple's Pro software applications (FCS2, Aperture, Logic PRo 8 Studio, etc.) installed on this machine and it takes a long time to reinstall all that software.
    I would be extremely grateful for any suggestions that anyone may have.
    Tom

    I finally solved this problem by doing three things. I do not know which of the three really solved the problem, but one of them did. Since this is a new Mac Pro the weekly and monthly maintenance routines had not been run. I ran them using a widget called Maintidigit. Second, I reinstalled iChat directly from the Leopard install disk. Third, I rebooted my cable modem (Road Runner) and then I rebooted my Buffalo Router and while power was off to the Buffalo Router, I unplugged and then plugged in all cables to it. I then plugged in the power cable. Video iChatting with my friend across town worked perfectly with no error messages after these three changes.

  • How do I manage my AirPort on my new (different) Mac?

    How do I manage my AirPort on my new (different) MacBook Pro?  I've been managing it on my 2008 iMac for years now, but want to have my MacBook Pro be my main computer.  How do I get the program on my MacBook Pro, that will allow me to log-in and make changes? 
    Thank you!

    You already have everything you need on the new Mac
    Make sure your Mac is connected to the wireless network provided by the AirPort router

  • Making changes to a published site using a different Mac.

    I published a site last year using the previous version of iWeb. I now have iWeb '09 and want to make changes to the site published. I have no access to the original files, only what is on my iDisk. I don't see a way to download those files, open them in iWeb and make changes to them. is this possible or will I have to start over?

    iWeb cannot import published files. You need to have a copy of the original domain file.
    You can however use the published files to help you build the new site.....

  • IWeb doesn't complete publishing - Using two different Mac's, works on 1

    Hi,
    I've recently attempted to edit my sites from two different machines; I have correctly copied and used the Domain file. The problem is that when I try to publish the site, iWeb creates the pages, gets to the empty circle which starts filling up and then it tends to stay like that without completing. This is strange as for a test I was only trying to load a blank page. Futhermore Activity monitor shows that data is being sent, actually it was Mb after Mb for a blank page and after 30mins or so i called it a day and quit iWeb, after which activity monitor showed that the data being sent has stopped. The page hadn't uploaded. iWeb still publishes fine on the other machine and I can write and read from my iDisk manually. But cannot successfully publish from this machine.
    Any Ideas?

    Well i had a problem similar. Here are something to try. TRY
    1. Un-Plug Or Turn Off You Airport Or Internet Cord For Thirty Minutes
    2. Log out of your .mac account from the preferences and then log back in ten minutes later
    Well i hope this works. I just hate it when something is suppose to work and it does not.

  • Can two user accounts of one computer use two different Mac ID accounts?  I'd like to keep separate accounts for movies, music etc.

    I have a Mac Air running 10.8.5, with two users on it.  I'd like to keep separate Apple store accounts accounts for the two users, as we have separate music, movies, books etc.  To date, we've had separate computers, but now will share the one computer.  But when the second account is signed in and we try to sign in to the I-tunes store, or authorise the computer with the second account, the response is "the I-Tunes store is not available" or "we cannot fulfil your request at this time".  Togetherness is nice, but I'd prefer to have some privacy.

    Hi Harrike2000,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you’re running into an iTunes Store connection issue in one of the user accounts on your MacBook Air, and you want to know if the issue is related to using multiple Apple IDs or user accounts.
    You can use multiple user accounts and Apple IDs with one computer, see this article for more information:
    How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer - Apple Support
    For the issue connecting to the iTunes Store, try the suggestions in the article linked below.
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store - Apple Support
    Troubleshoot issues on a Mac
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store, a software conflict or your Internet service provider (ISP) may be blocking your access.
    Update iTunes and Safari to the latest version.
    If you have a firewall, your settings may be preventing you from connecting to the iTunes Store. Follow these steps to configure your firewall.
    You may need to reset your keychain. Connection issues are occasionally caused by keychain issues. Learn how to use Keychain First Aid to resolve any issues with your keychain.
    If you're receiving a specific error message, follow these steps.
    If the issue still persists, contact your Internet service provider and confirm that these ports and servers are enabled over your network.
    Learn more
    If the steps above didn't resolve your issue, be sure that your specific alert isn't listed as a possible iTunes Store error. Then, if your issue is still unresolved, follow these steps.

  • Copy Time machine backup using a different Mac

    A friend has a Time Machine backup from an iMac that he sold some time ago. He's concerned that the drive might fail so wants to make a copy of the backup, but doesn't have a Mac at the moment. So he'd like to use my MacBook to copy his backup drive. The backup is about 400GB, my HD is 256GB and he'd like to copy it to a new 1TB drive.
    All the answers that I can find to similar questions assume that the Time Machine backup belongs to the Mac making the copy, in this case it doesn't. So is there a way to copy a Time Machine backup using a Mac that wasn't used to create the backup?

    Hi ozRob,

  • Shutdown 2003 domain controller, Used new different name; same IP address on new 2012 DC - can I delete the old name object?

    Greetings,
    I promoted a 2012 domain controller, with new name and IP,   shutdown the old DC and re-ip'ed new DC with old IP address.
    after reboot everything is working fine.  I would like to deleted the old DC object name from the AD.  can I do so without interruption?
    Thank you

    Demotion using DCPROMO would have been the preferred way to go. 
    You should however be able to get away with deleting the computer object for the old DC using AD Users and Computers.  The metadata cleanup is now included in the modern UI, so you shouldn't need to use NTDSUtil to do the cleanup of references to the
    old DC.
    I would also manually remove the NS record for the old DC from your DNS zone(s) as this is not handled by the object deletion. 
    Also, have a good look through the DNS records anyway and see if there are any references to the old name (A, SRV records) and delete them manually if you find some.

  • Photoshop CS6 crashes constantly on 2 very different macs, but CS5 running very stable!

    hi
    our photoshop cs6 (with latest update to 13.0.4) keeps crashing daily and is not stable at all.
    so we would work with cs 5 again, as this version is very stable and wont crash even once in a year.
    we are daily/"9-5" working at a photographers´ studio and use 2 different macs:
    - brand new mac pro 6-core (2010/Westmere) with 48GB RAM under system 10.8.3
    - old mac pro with Two 2.66 GHz Dual-core Intel Xeon "Woodcrest" from 2006 with 16GB RAM under system 10.7.6
    (both with standard equipped/shipped graphics cards)
    cs6 crashes daily whith following tasks:
    - frequent crashs: using "motion blur"
    - frequent crashs: using "refine edge"
    - sometimes using "transform tool"
    during our tests, we found out, that "disable graphics card" (photoshop>settings>performance) in the mac pro from 2006, would prevent a crash, when using "refine edge". in the latest mac pro from 2010, we did not find any solution to prevent a crash.
    a "crash", we define as follows: during the mentioned tasks, photoshop is gone from the screen in the blink of second, and an osx sign appears "photoshop has crashed"..
    thanks for your time..

    Instructions for submitting crash reports with your email address: http://adobe.ly/gNJWVY
    As Chris states, this will help us track down your issue.
    I agree is Christoph, I would suggest leaving OpenGL/"Use Graphics Processor" enabled and twiddling the Advanced settings for Drawing Mode to "Basic." Then restart Photoshop and see if the problem still persists.
    That setting is the main difference between CS5 (Basic) and CS6 (Advanced).

  • Using new iPhoto to update old .Mac gallery

    I want to use iPhoto 6.0.3 to update this photo gallery, which was started in an older version of iPhoto: http://homepage.mac.com/lpennock/
    I used to be able to select "share to web" or whatever that option was and update the gallery that way, but now it seems I can only create new "iWeb" galleries that show up here: http://web.mac.com/lpennock/iWeb/Site/random%20summer.html
    If there is a way to move my entire .Mac gallery at the link above to a iWeb photo page, that's fine, I just want them all to be in the same place. Is this possible? Are all the old .Mac galleries now non-updatable?
    Thanks!
    -Lewis

    Lewis:
    The only way I've been able to update my Homepage galleries was to do the following:
    1 - export the files you want to add to a folder on the desktop resizing them to the size of the ones already in the gallery.
    2 - mount your iDisk and locate the folder on the iDisk that contains the files for that gallery and copy your files into it.
    3 - go the the .Mac page and log in and then goto the Homepage section.
    4 - select the page you want to edit and click on the Edit button.
    5 - the newly added files should show up at the bottom where you can edit the title and place them where you want.
    As far as converting from Homepage to iWeb easily, there is no easy way. I'm in the process of doing it now and have to go about it this way.
    1 - create the photo page in iWeb.
    2 - go to the iDisk and download the source files for the Homepage you're converting.
    3 - select all of the downloaded image files and drag into the iWeb photo page.
    4 - with your Homepage open in Safari, copy the general text and photo text and past into the appropriate section of the iWeb page. Tedious work at best.
