Website function lost in mobileme to godaddy transfer

hi, i did a website using iweb, that, when hosted by mobileme, allowed readers to post comments and pictures on a number of blog-like pages. now that mobileme's no longer hosting websites, i changed to godaddy, and all the comments disappeared, and readers can no longer add comments to the website. is there a way to get the comments back (i can actually still find them, but not at the new godaddy address), and to enable readers to add comments again?
the website is:

thanks a lot, jeff

Regarding your blog: the only hope for keeping your visitor comments is to try the Convert Your iWeb Blog to a WordPress Blog | iWeb to WordPress for Mac OS X application offered by Rage Software. However, one user reported having a lot of problems with it and when contacting Rage was told it was going to be withdrawn till fixed. As you can see from the link it hasn't so you'll have to proceed are your own risk. Obviously some users have been successful because these forums have had only one posting of such failure.
Generally speaking about iWeb as you now know iWeb and iDVD have been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. HOWEVER, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
◼ MobileMe Gallery
Currently if the site is published directly from iWeb to the 3rd party server the RSS feed and slideshow subscription features will work. However, if the site is first published to a folder on the hard drive and then uploaded to the sever with a 3rd party FTP client those two features will be broken.
All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows. Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.

However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone. How to is described in this tutorial: iW14 - Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
NOTE: the iLife 11 boxed version Is no longer available at the online Apple Store. To get a copy you'll have to try Amazon.com or eBay.com.

ICal data lost after MobileMe to iCloud transfer

Completed the transfer from MobileMe to iCloud and set up all devices..no issues there.
Opened iCal and found that the entries had all been duplicated - after deleting the duplicates (1st mistake) then found that after a sync - all was lost.
Luckily I had backed up before the updates - so imported the data back into iCal - but as soon as it syncs, it reverts back - no imported data remains...
Seems that the iCloud is overwriting the restore iCal on the mac....
Anyone else having this issue, or have any suggestions?
DJ

The issue with the backup I had was that it was an "archived" export so I found that when I tried to import it back into iCal, it would bring the old MobileMe settings with it, which would then get overwritten by the iCloud settings and wipe the cal.
This is essentially what I did:
1. Disconnect from Internet (so iCloud cannot interfere)
2. Import archived backup into iCal (thus re-creating your diary as it was)
3. Export each calendar individually (file-export-export = .ics file for each calendar)
4. Re-connect to the Internet and on iCal app, ensure the account sync creates an iCloud ID within iCal settings (if not, delete the account and using your apple ID, create a "clean startup")
5. Ensure any iCloud calendars are deleted (minimum of 1 must remain so I created "temp").
6. Create new calendar names which match your previously used ones ("work", "personal" etc).
7. Check that the newly created calendars appear across all iCloud devices.
8. (Within iCal) Select file-import and choose your .ics file back up, it will ask you which calendar you want to use, pick the category ("work", "personal" etc) to which the back up applied.
9. Repeat step 8 for as many calendars as you have.
10. After syncing, all devices and the cloud should be showing sync'd calendars.
Good luck

I have iWeb '08 and just switched from Mobileme to GoDaddy and using Filezilla. Now when I make changes through iWeb it doesn't actually publish to my desktop folder. In fact, it doesn't publish at all but says that it did.

What's the format of your video? That will give you a hint as to what plugin is failing (or missing).
If you don't know, what's the URL of your site - it shouldn't take long for someone to work out the specifics.

Move Podcast from MobileMe to GoDaddy

I know similar questions like this have already been asked. I've read the various discussion and answers. I think I know what I need to do, but I want to confirm it here on the boards. A mistake could very well cost me listeners.
I have moved my site (created with iWeb) from MobileMe to GoDaddy. Both sites are still live. Now, I want to change the RSS code on my MM site to point subscriptions to the GD site. Here is what I understand (thanks to reading Roger Wilmut's info at http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/podcast.html#move):
1. In the RSS code (MM site), I need to add the following line of code: <itunes:new-feed-url>NEW URL FOR YOUR FEED</itunes:new-feed-url>
2. This code needs to be added between the "channel" tag the first "item" tag. My first question is: should it be right below the channel and BEFORE the <title> info?
3. Now, here is the big question: what exactly should I put in for the NEW URL? My MM and GD site / podcast information is below.
MOBILEME SITE: http://web.me.com/markandjill/SW_Miniverse/Welcome.html
MOBILEME PODCAST: http://web.me.com/markandjill/SW_Miniverse/Star_Wars_Miniverse/Star_Wars_Miniver se.html
GODADDY SITE: http://www.swminiverse.com
GODADDY POSCAST: http://www.swminiverse.com/SW_Miniverse/Star_Wars_Miniverse/Star_Wars_Miniverse. html
Any help is greatly appreciated!! I think I know what to enter for the NEW URL, but I want to make sure I don't make a mistake. Thank you!

I'm glad you checked, because it looks as if you were about to paint yourself into a corner. You've quoted the web pages for the two versions of the podcast: what matters are the feeds.
The original, MobileMe, feed is at
http://web.me.com/markandjill/SW_Miniverse/Star_Wars_Miniverse/rss.xml
The Godaddy feed is at
http://www.swminiverse.com/SW_Miniverse/Star_Wars_Miniverse/rss.xml
Since iWeb doesn' provide for adding the tag, you are going to do it manually. Please follow these instructions very carefully.
Mount your iDisk on the Desktop (command-shift-i). Open the Web folder, then within that the Sites, folder, then the markandjill folder, then the SW_Miniverse folder, then the Star_Wars_Miniverse folder and locate the rss.xml file. Drag this to the Desktop to download it.
Now open this file in Text edit in PLAIN TEXT mode (not Rich Text which is often the default). Three lines down you will see the <channel> tag. Make a new line beneath this, reading:
<itunes:new-feed-url>http://www.swminiverse.com/SW_Miniverse/Star_Wars_Miniverse/rss.xml</itunes:new-feed-url>
All one line, no returns within it, and I should copy this line to make sure you get it absolutely right.
Save the file as rss.xml - TextEdit will offer to add .txt on the end - don't allow this.
Drag the file to the Star_Wars_Miniverse folder on the iDisk, replacing the existing one. Leave it severely alone for at least two weeks. Do not publish anything from iWeb to the iDisk or you will over-write it.
You can check that it's worked; go to your iTunes Store page at
http://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/star-wars-miniverse/id326698031
Click the Subscribe button below the image. Go to the Podcasts section: control-click on the line with the podcast name (not an episode) and choose 'Copy Podcast URL'. Paste this into TextEdit - you should see the GoDaddy URL. It will take the Store page a few days to catch up. Subscribers will be automatically redirected to the new feed.

Will I still me able to keep my blogs and websites with iWeb after Mobileme is discontinued?

My wife and I use iWeb via Mobileme for our websites and blogs. Mobileme is being discontinued for iCloud. Can anyone reassure me that I can keep my iWeb websites? I feel iWeb was a good thing that almost got better but has been neglected in the last version of iLife so for the first time didn't upgrade. I am anxious that Apple will just let it slip away. Perhaps not?

I don't have any insider information, but I would have to guess that Apple would keep a web hosting option to its chosen successor to MobileMe. iCould is clearly a Hosted Exchange Server alternative and web hosting would seem to be needed for many small businesses who are using this service as an alternative to web hosting. It also helps push their iLife product line. If you kill webhosting, iWeb becomes a weaker product. That said, I would keep a backup.
I think that as iCloud gets nearer to release date, we will see more options get released. I'm sure that Apple will be willing to sell more storage space, that web hosting will be available, etc. My gut is that probably won't charge for the hosting, but will draw down from your data pool. It just seems like a cleaner way and will actually get more people to take the jump. I wouldn't be surprised to see a Sharepoint type service emerge as well. Only time will tell, but Apple's philosophy is to make all their pieces fit together and work better than than anyone else's. A web hosting component seems to make sense.

RSS feed from MobileMe to GoDaddy

Hello,
Forgive me for asking this queston late in the game, but I previously made the switch from MobileMe to GoDaddy. Could somebody please confirm my new RSS feed with GoDaddy (or maybe I need assistance confirming my old feed)?
Is the new feed
http://www.warbirdshow.com/Warbird_Show/Warbird_Show/rss.xml
Was my old feed
http://web.me.com/warbirdshow/warbird_show/warbird_show/rss.xml
I don't do a lot of podcasting, but was trying to successfully transition from MobileMe to GoDaddy and save my 7 podcasts.
I realize I'm asking this late in the game, but any assistnce would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

http://web.me.com/warbirdshow/warbird_show/warbird_show/rss.xml - there is no file at this address.
http://www.warbirdshow.com/Warbird_Show/Warbird_Show/rss.xml - there is a feed at this address.
Your iTunes Store page is http://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/warbird-show/id408763490
and it is indeed using the second feed, so you are all OK. Ideally the old feed should have been left in place for two weeks so that any subscribers could be seamlessly redirected when they checked the feed, but it's too late to worry about that. They would be able to re-subscribe from the Store page.

Lost my mobileme password how do i reset

lost my mobileme password how do i reset

Your MobileMe address is an Apple ID and you can reset its password at http://appleid.apple.com - however MobileMe itself closed last July. If you migrated your account to iCloud before August 1 you can sign in in System Preferences>iCloud with it (Lion 10.7.2 minimum required); if you didn't migrate the account you can open a new iCloud account the same way but you won't be able to retrieve emails and other data previously held on MobileMe.

Moving website hosting from MobileMe to Godaddy... how to?

Greetings!
I recently created a website using iWeb and hosted it on MobileMe using my Godaddy domain.
I am interested in moving the hosting abilities to the new hosting I purchased on GoDaddy. So far, I have changed most of the settings, I will try and list them all below. The issue I am having is that I publish the entire site (I know it takes some time to reflect) but when I visit the site, I expect to see the stock GoDaddy page without my site for the time being, but what I see is a link to MobileMe.
I changed:
The CNAME from www.me.com or whatever it was to the GoDaddy specs.
The CNAME alias from www.me.com to the @ sign like it requests. Under DNS manager
I just removed the forwarding to www.me.com or mobileme (cant remember -- in any event I removed it) so maybe that will fix it.
Should I have the nameservers set to a hosting account with these domains (which I assume links to my godaddy hosting and domain I purchased) or should I use the specific nameservers that godaddy specified based on the date I purchased the domain -- NS01.DOMAINCONTROL.COM and NS02.DOMAINCONTROL.COM?
Any other thoughts on changes I need to make on the GoDaddy side to complete the transition? Thank you for the feedback!

Its bizarre when I upload the entire site using the option to Publish the Entire Site in iWeb 09, it lets me visit the site and it shows up. But when I go to firefox to try and get to it, it redirects me to MobileMe.
I upload it by logging all of the information on iWeb. Server address, user name (godaddy), password, etc... all of it correct, and the click FILE>Publish Entire Site.
I see now that the name servers option has been clicked on the one indicating a specific nameserver hosted by GoDaddy, which is the option I believe you were having me select. It has been that way overnight, so it never changed.
I am at a loss here why it would show up once, and then redirect me back to mobileme. I removed the forwarding to web.me.com and deleted the domain from my mobileme account too!

Why are calculation functions lost from Reader Extended PDF when downloaded from website?

I am creating PDF forms with most fields performing calculations. I am saving the forms out as Reader Extended PDF> Enable Additional Features. When I email the form there is no problem with the person using the form, all calculations work. The person is able to save the form and all info is present.
However, when the same file is posted on a website with a clickable link to download, once downloaded, all the calculation functions are missing from the fields. Additionally, when the user fills the form out anyway, the info in the fields is invisible.
I am on a MAC OS 10 using Acrobat X Pro. The majority of the people going to the website and using the forms are on Windows. What am I doing wrong?

It sounds like you're actually using the Preview application when viewing the form on your Mac. It does not support JavaScript, which is how the automatic calculations are implemented. It also corrupts forms when it saves them. A result of this corruption is when the form is subsequently opened in Acrobat/Reader, the fields are blank unless a field has the focus. For more information, see: http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/885/cpsid_88564.html

Iweb, mobileme, and godaddy HELP!

I purchased a domain from godaddy.com, designed the website on iweb '09, and have chosen to host the site through mobileme.
After an initial CNAME error on my part, I have been assured by godaddy reps that everything is correct on their end. I have set up the personal domain on my mobileme account, and have published the site from iweb '09 to mobileme. I have waited for the site to propogate onto godaddy servers, and the website is not pulling up. I get an error message that states that the website is temporarily unavailable. I tried republishing through iweb, and nothing seems to help.
My mobileme account is not set to private, and all of the mobileme information is showing correctly.
What do I do to fix this--fast?
Thanks!

Thanks for your help. I spent 4 hours yesterday at my local apple store to see if anyone had additional ideas, and finally a representative deleted the site from my iweb and had me create a new user on my mac. I set up the site through iweb under the new user, but we were still having issues, so we went into godaddy and changed the url forwarding and then masked the site. It was the only solution that worked, and I am thrilled that the site is up and working. I had followed all of the godaddy instructions on the site, and so did the apple reps, (we were troubleshooting mobileme, iweb and godaddy simultaneously) but nothing provided by the godaddy site or godaddy representatives worked. It was just a long process of trial by error that eventually brought us to a solution.
Thank you, everyone for your suggestions, and please know that I tried each one--multiple times. I truly appreciate the help.

IWeb website functionality (PHP/HTML) help. Please, anyone?

I used to use the gosh-awful Word-Press and now i switched to iWeb '09, it's pretty easy to design the site, but how do I make it actually work, i.e. such that site users can type in fields, click on stuff that will link them to other stuff...basically, how do I give the website any kind of functionality? Right now, it's just a dud, as in you go on there and you can't click on anything or what not (other than the widgets that come with the site). Do I need to do PHP or HTML to do this? Please help.
P.S. I'm not s computer scientist, so please respond as if I were a 5th grader : )

Website forms require a script on your server. You can't do this if you publish to MobileMe.
Some info here......
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Tricks/Forms.html
.... and a couple of suggestions for alternatives if you publish to MobileMe near the bottom of the page.
There's a lot of stuff about HTML around......
http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_forms.asp
A search of this form should reveal a lot if stuff about iFrames and embedding music, movies etc.
Here's an example of a flash banner in an iWeb page....
