Ways to upload via another computer?

Hi, I have made a website in iweb but would prefer not to put my Mac on the net as otherwise it is literally only used for music and is running fairly smoothly. Is there any way that I can somehow transfer it as a file to my internet pc and upload it from there? There are a few links to audio files if that might make any difference.
Many thanks,
Richard.

Basically, In iWeb you would do: File > Publish to a Folder...
That folder could, for example, be on a Flash thumb drive plugged in to the USB port of your Mac. Once you've published your iWeb site's HTML to that thumb drive, you would unplug it, and plug it in to your PC. (There are alternative media options such as re-writeable CDs.)
Once you've got your folder of HTML on the PC, there is something to consider when publishing to .Mac:
.Mac's iDisk requires WebDAV instead of FTP as the protocol. So when choosing a PC file transfer tool, it would need to have WebDAV capability.
And when publishing to a non-.Mac host, such as GoDaddy, you would need an FTP tool on your PC.
Hopefully, other forum readers will chip in here as to the feasibility of the above -- since I've never actually tried it!

    In trying to transfer iWeb pages (not uploaded) to another computer I went into the Library and transferred the domain onto the desktop. Disaster! On opening iWeb all previous (uploaded) sites have disappeared. On opening the domain all I can recover is the many component parts, and when unzipped the code. Help! Mike

    Code in a domain file - really?  That is not possible because the domain.sites file does not contain any html or css code at all - the domain file is your iWeb data file and you won't see any code until you publish your website.
    If you can see html code, then you have the wrong file and it is a published version of your site which iWeb can do nothing with - iWeb has no import facility so cannot open any html files.
    Go back and ensure that you have the correct domain.sites files that can be found under your User Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites and if you have Mavericks then you need to go to Go and press the alt key to reveal your hidden User Library, so that you can then get to Application Support and then iWeb and then your domain.sites file.
    You will also need to go and download either DomainCracker or iWebSwitch which allows you to open individual domain files under Mavericks, because from Lion onwards, you cannot open individual domain files.
    Also, it says that you are still using iWeb 08?  If this is so, you'll either need to upgrade to iWeb 09 by going to Amazon and purchasing the iLife 09 or 11 boxed set, both of which contain iWeb 09 or you need to switch to newer software that is actively being supported and developed such as EverWeb (http://www.everwebapp.com).

  • CD tray broken-can I erase disk via another computer?

    My old 233 has a broken tray, but otherwise still works fine. A non-profit wants it but I am afraid to give it away without it being erased. Could I somehow ethernet it to my other G3 (running Panther), load the original restore cd from the 233 in it and mount the disk on the older one?
    Also, once I do that I want to clean the iMac500 to give away/sell. Is the preferred method to use the original restore disks, then install Panther? It came with OSX and 9.2 disks.
    Thanks, as always.

    1. Unfortunately you can't erase the hard drive on the iMac 233 because you must use that hard drive as a boot drive in order to supply the network drive to another machine - and a Mac won't allow you to overwrite it's own start-up disk. So the options include:
    Erase all your data as normal and then create a large innocuous file and duplicate this until the drive is full, then delete these files. This is a very crude way of overwriting the erased data.
    Remove the hard disk and erase it in another computer.
    Find an external USB CD Drive.
    2. For the iMac 500MHz just boot from the disk choose Disk Utility with the Installer and do a Zero-All-Data (or for even more protection the 7-Way-Random data write) and then do and Erase and Install. You can then use Pacfist to extract the free software included with the iMac it's OS X Install Disk.
    The buyer can re-install OS 9 if they wish.

  • Best way to upload via FTP

    Is there a way to upload my iWeb files to my web server so that ALL the files don't need to be uploaded each time I publish?
    I'm publishing a podcast with large mp3 files. I don't want to have to upload those files each time. What settings should I use in Cyberduck? Will "Synchronize" accomplish that?
    Any advice would be helpful.

    I use scp and rsync - two command line tools. SCP is like FTP, only it doesn't send your password in the clear for anyone to see. Rsync will figure out for you exactly what files have changed and send only the changed files.
    If you web server is a linux or mac box, then you're in luck - this should work no problems. If you're publishing to a Windows box, then look for a different web hosting company.
    Anyhow, this is how I publish:
    1) open the Terminal (I know, un-mac like, but it's just one line you have to type, and for me, it's always just an up-arrow key away)
    2) rsync -vr ~/Sites/yoursite/ [email protected]:~/public_html
    A little explaination for step two:
    rsync is the command. -v makes it verbose, r makes it recursive (handles a directory).
    ~/Sites/yoursite - this is the directory you want to publish. It's the directory you chose when you chose "publish to a folder".
    [email protected] - your.server.com is your server, what you normally would FTP to, and user is your username you would use to connect with.
    : - this separates the user information from the target directory
    ~/public_html - This is the directory that gets served up, e.g. Sites on a Mac.
    Rsync is great - it can figure out if a file is new or changed and only send over files that fall into one of those two categories.
    Let me know if you have any problems using this.

  • Best way to connect to another computer via Internet

    Hello,
    I would like to be able to help my students from time to time remotely, that is, by accessing their computer via the Internet so I could make some demos whether on my own screen our theirs.I know that we can do this at school via Apple Remote Desktop. I read a few post on Apple's Forum's Web Site saying that it was quite simple to do but there where many conditions required.
    A simple way is neede here since I'm will be talking mostly at starters on the mac and maybe some will be on a PC.
    I will need to give them simple instructions to connect easally.
    I am not that familiar with "File Sharing", I know the option is there in my Mac. But I'm not sure all of my students will be on the same network and maybe some will be on PC also?
    Do I really need Apple Remote Desktop, some other software or via a Web site such as "logmein.com" or others?
    Thank you for answering and looking forward to read you,

    HI,
    Thank's for answering. I've cheked the product and it seem's quite simple effectively. I even talk to a person on the phone who explained to me what where the possibilities. It seem's like if I want to show how I do something on my Mac to one of my student the student need then to also download the software. As soon as I told the ladie it was between my students and I, the sofware is no longer free (30$ a month?...). So I guess I would have to be cautious about using that product free of charge with my students, as long as I do a "Pear To Pear" connection...
    Are there other Internet Services such as this one?
    Thank you for answering,

  • Iphone 3g sync problems with itunes 9.2 after updating on another computer

    Hello
    I have an old mac which will not allow me to update itunes to 10.x. So I have been updating my iphone via another computer (which apple support to itunes 10.x) and my old mac has been able to see it still and therefore I have been able to backup/update it.
    However after updating to ios 4.2, my old mac has not been able to sync to it and itunes tell me that I have to update to itunes 10.1 (which I cannot).
    Last time I updated, I had to restore my iphone due to various problems (mainly to do with itunes 9.2 allowing me to download the unsupported ios 4.1). I didn't have to restore this time and this maybe what has caused me the problems. Does anyone know whether I can solve my problem of syncing to itunes 9.2 by restoring my iphone and reinstalling ios4.2? Or is ios 4.2 not supported by itunes 9.2 at all and now I need a new computer?
    Sorry, I originally posted this in the wrong section.
    Cheers for the help

    Yes, I had the same problem this time and had email communication with Apple about it when ios 4.1 came out. Apple have made it so 10.4.11 is not supported by itunes 10.1, and so stuck with itunes 9.2.1.
    When I had this problem, I decided to update on another computer (as I did this last time). But I didn't have the same problems as before (requiring a restore of my iphone) which I suspect solved the problem I have now.
    However, if the restore doesn't solve this, then I have an iphone without any music on it! Or any of the apps as well.

  • I have an iPhoto event on my computer that I have photo-edited, named, key-worded, and place and dated. How to I transfer that event to another computer in a way that includes ALL the information?

    I have iPhoto '09, version 8.1.2. I have an event in the Library whose photos have all been edited, faces named, keywords added, and place and dated. How do I transfer the event intact (with ALL the editing, names, dates, places, etc) to another computer? Exporting does not include all the information (no dates or face names), nor does burning a DVD (it shows the location pinned on the map, but doesn't write out the name of the place).

    File -> Export:
    Kind: Jpeg
    Check the boxes at Include...
    This will get everything you mention except the Faces data. There is no way to share that on any system.
    Note that this information including the dates is written to the IPTC and Exif metadata. So you'll need an app that understands these things as the Finder doesn't - a Photo app for insstance.
    There are two kinds of metadata involved when you consider  jpeg or other image file.
    One is the file data. This is what the Finder shows. This tells you nothing about the contents of the file, just the File itself.
    The problem with File metadata is that it can easily change as the file is moved from place to place or exported, e-mailed, uploaded etc.
    Photographs have also got both Exif and IPTC metadata. The date and time that your camera snapped the Photograph is recorded in the Exif metadata. Regardless if what the file date says, this is the actual time recorded by the camera.
    Photo applications like iPhoto, Aperture, Lightroom, Picasa, Photoshop etc get their date and time from the Exif metadata.
    When you export from iPhoto to the Finder new file is created containing your Photo (and its Exif). The File date is - quite accurately - reported as the date of Export. However, the Photo Date doesn't change.
    The problem is that the Finder doesn't work with Exif.
    So, your photo has the correct date, and so does the file, but they are different things. To sort on the Photo date you'll need to use a photo app.

  • Is it possible to install OSX on another computer via Target disk mode?

    Hey there...
    a friend of mine has an older iBook. the drive on this iBook is broken (snapped off) so there's no way of using it.
    is it possible to install OS Panther from another computer (use OS X panther install running on a MacBook, or G4) targeting the iBook via Target Disk mode?
    thanks!

    Hello Again SCHPiLKAS!
    As roam posted, you cannot use the Intel MacBook install discs, on the PPC iBook.
    Additional info in these links.

    If the iBook meets the Panther System Requirements, and the Additional Panther System Requirements, and you have a Full Retail Version, of the Panther Install CDs, you can use Firewire Target Disk Mode, to install the system.
    The Panther discs should look, exactly like the images in the above links, and not say Upgrade, CPU Drop-in DVD, or "This software is part of a hardware bundle purchase - not to be sold seperately." on them.

    Home Sharing, which seems to be what you're describing, needs iTunes 9 or later.

    I have another computer that a virus may have taken over and I cannot log into it anymore.  I just downloaded Itunes on a new computer but most of my songs are not on there.  Is there a way to still access or find those songs?  Remotely or another way?  Or do I need to take it to a tech to get my files off of my hard drive?

    Edit > Preferences > Store check Music under Automatic Downloads.
    Open the iTunes Store from left hand column, then select Purchasedfrom the column on the right, click the Not In My Library button and select the tunes you want to download again.
    That said, you seem to be under a misapprehension as to how iTunes works, or at least how it has worked in the past. It has, until recently, been up to you take care of your purchases once they have been downloaded. You had a one-time download which you were reminded to back up. With the recent change to this policy you can at least download your store purchases again, but having a personal backup of your iTunes store purchases, stuff purchased elsewhere and files ripped from your CDs will still be preferable to gathering all the stuff together again in the event of a disaster.
    For a backup strategy see this User Tip.
