The critifcal file to have for iWeb to work on your websites is named Domain.sites2 and is located in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder.
If you don't have a backup copy of that file you will have to rebuild your sites from scratch. 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 creation of the new site.

After update to Lion and going back to snow leopard, iWeb doesn't recognize my website

I upgraded to Lion thinking my files were backed up on MobileMe as set up. After finding out most of my favorite programs had no upgrade to Lion, I had to erase my hard disk and re-install Snow Leopard. Some of my programs don't work now and iWeb won't recognize my personal website, so I can't update it. What and how do I correct this issue? I also can't get my printers working in spite of numerous re-installs of their software and internet updates. HELP!

My iPad suddenly started to show crazy colors. I turned it off and had to use the two button trick to turn it back on. Now it shows only green stripes for a few seconds and goes back to sleep.

My iPad suddenly started to show crazy colors. I turned it off. It would not reboot until I used the two-button reboot. Now it shows only green stripes. only for a few seconds and goes back to sleep. HELP!

Standard troubleshooting...
1. Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider. Slide to power off. Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
2. Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider if, it comes up. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
3. Remove all apps from Recently Used list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
- Press the red to delete all apps from this list.
- Press the home button twice when done.
4. If still a problem restore with your backup.
5. If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

I recently bought the new Iphone 4S on the Bell network. I subscribe to visual voicemail, and when I get a voicemail I can listen to them but when I go to delete them it freezes the screen for a second or two and goes back to the homescreen.

I recently bought the new Iphone 4S on the Bell network. I subscribe to visual voicemail, and when I get a voicemail I can listen to them but when I go to delete them it freezes the screen for a second or two and goes back to the homescreen. Anyone else having this problem? I've called Belland they're clueless about this, and Apple support doesnt seem to know much about it either.

I was mislead as well. It turns out that visual voicemail is only partially supported by Bell. You can only playback voicemail. It doesn't show the caller ID either. You still have to call your VM in order to delete messages (which kinda defeats the purpose). According to Bell tech support they're "working on it" but I wouldn't hold my breath.

My iphone 3g stays on the apple logo for about 4 minutes then flashes white and goes back to the apple screen, it repeats untill battery is flat, every now and then im lucky enough to get it to turn on but not very often and then it freezes and repeats??

hello my name is kirstie, i updated to firmware 4.2.1 .....my iphone 3g stays on the apple logo for about 4 minutes then flashes white and goes back to the apple screen, it repeats untill battery is flat, every now and then im lucky enough to get it to turn on but not very often and then it freezes and repeats the same problem?? (if i turn the phone off my pressing the two buttons it wont keep rebooting, its only when i leave it after turning it on)
I have reset the phone, full firmware restore, even downgraded back from firmware 4.2.1 to .3.1.3 official by using dfu mode and still doesnt fix.
(i correctly got out of dfu mode after the downgrade)
i can enter dfu mode and recovery, and update through itunes with no problem, but it doesnt fix the problem,
i have searched and found no answer to this problem, every option availible to try that i know of i have tried and failed. i dont care about preserving my content i just want a fix. i have a good understanding how to operate software on a computer and shouldnt be too confused by any advice given, so plz even if the answer is very complex i wish to try anything, please help me to get my iphone working.

Anyone have any suggestions? or is everyone else just as clueless as me !

Hi, I've been playing Smurf's village for a year now and just last week, i tried to get into the app but it keeps rejecting and goes back to the main page. Is there any reason for this? I've been updating the app everytime and now it's not letting me in

Reset the device, restart the device, try downloading any other app.
All of these are basic steps that could have been found by a simple search of the forums as a resolution for the issue.

Just restore your bootable backup/clone or Time Machine backup.

So my iTunes Radio is not working and whenever I press or choose a station, it goes into the song it was going to play and goes back out to the stations menu. I have great wifi, great cellular option or whatever it it, So how do I get it to work again?

Hi Jbierrie,
There is an issue with Photoshop specifically related to recent updates in which causes the licensing to revert to trial after a certain number of launches (typically 2-3).
The current workarounds are to either:
- Sign in with your Adobe ID again every few launches
- Uninstall Photoshop CS6 and then reinstall it but don't install any of the updates
The issue with the updates is planned to be fixed in the coming weeks. Sorry for the inconvenience.

STUCK IN GUIDED ACCESS ON IPAD. TRIPLE-CLICKING AND FORCER REBOOTS DON'T WORK, THE IPAD JUST UNLOCKS ITSELF AND GOES BACK TO THE APP I WAS IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stuck in Guided Access on iPad. iOS 7!
- Triple-clicking won't work, the Accessibility Options pop-up and I tap Guided Access, it unticks, but no passcode input screen comes up, and the iPad stays in guided access.
- Forced reboots don't work, the iPad just unlocks it self (no lock code) and goes back to the app that I am stuck in, which is Google Chrome.
- Lost Mode is not an option, location services are off.
- When I plug it into my computer, iTunes says that it is locked with a passcode, so I can't back it up.
There seems like no possible way to get out.
Help!?

If you are prepare to wipe your iPad.
FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Hold Sleep/Wake button down and slide to turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTune (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port. Do not release button until you see picture of iTune and plug.
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER

Double tap your home button to bring up the most recently used apps (task bar). With your finger hold it on any of the those apps until they all start to jiggle. Each app will now show a in the upper left corner. Touch the minus on the Mail App to fully close it. Touch your home button once again to stop the apps from Jiggling, then again to get back to your home screen.
I would then Reboot your iPad: Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.
Try the mail app and see if you can navigate again.
If neither option helps, it sometimes helps to delete the mailbox, then reinstall it.

FCPx answer: At least the answer that worked for me...
I had the same problem, as I believe many others had.
In my case the problem was with one of OSX Mavericks' new features: APP NAP.
It looks like this is ON by DEFAULT for ALL Applications and that FCPx, or Compressor for that matter, will not work if this is enabled on them.
I just disabled App Napp on FCPx and now it works, again, like a charm.
This is how you disable App Nap: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57612009-263/how-to-disable-app-nap-in-os-x -mavericks/

Imessage is buggy, i can login to it but does discontinues to verify and goes back to the login page,

The problem with imessage with me and same thing too for my facetime, i can login but discontinues to verify and goes back to the login page. This is the second time where imessage is not working, the first time was "Unable to verify email" error, but i manage to solve it by just restarting my ipod. The second time, restart doesn't solve the issue, i wonder the iMessage app is pretty buggy, or servers are busy etc. I need help on this, does anyone has the same problem?

Restore in iTunes. See

Look at no. 5 in this text which was copied from Apple's support site for troubleshooting Messages and FaceTime activation.
Troubleshooting Apple ID activation
After each step, toggle iMessage and FaceTime off and then on again in Settings > Messages and Settings > FaceTime.
Update to the latest version of iOS.
Ensure that you have an active Internet connection. You can complete activation using Wi-Fi or a cellular data connection. Check your Wi-Fi network using standard Wi-Fi network troubleshooting.
If you receive an error when signing in to your Apple ID, visit myinfo.apple.com, sign in to your account, and ensure that the primary email address has been verified.
Ensure that FaceTime has not been restricted: Settings > General > Restrictions > FaceTime.
In Settings > General > Date & Time, ensure that Set Automatically is on. If Set Automatically is on, but the incorrect time zone is displayed, turn Set Automatically off and then choose the correct time zone, date, and time. Then turn Set Automatically on again.
Enable iMessage and FaceTime while connected to another Wi-Fi network in a different location.
