Why  will iweb launch but not open?

iweb suddenly decided not to open. I have several sites on iweb but they will not dislpay. iweb dialoge box says opening but nothing happens. How do find my web site information?

Are you running Lion or Mt. Lion? If so try the script described in the following:
In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • IWeb booting but not opening

    I have successfully moved my Monmouth Boat Club (monmouthboatclub.org) site to an FTP server and it has its ups and downs but generally OK. I am aware of the quirkiness of opening iWeb domain in Lion as opposed to Snow Leopard. And, above all, I back up the domain multiple places. My latest and most annoyng problem is that on my iMac (running 10.6.8), at times the domain will BOOT but not OPEN..... iWeb open innavigation but I can't get the page up. It might open the fourth time I try...or an hour or a day later. In a pinch, I go back to one of my laptops (running Lion) and open it and make changes. However, Ineed the domain to both boot and open every time on my iMac/Snow Leopard machine.Is anyone having a similar problem and can you give me some advice....

    Yes.  Lion has messed up the iWeb preference file.  There is an easy solution for that:
    In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • Elements 11 will launch but not open beyond the icon

    Hi All,
    I have Elements 11 running on Win 8.1 on a Dell XPS.  The Organizer has worked fine before, but now, all of a sudden it will launch from the desktop icon, ask me to find the catalog, but then it simply stays minimized in the task bar.  If I right click on the icon in the task bar, I can see a small image from my catalog, I just can't get it to restore to where I can use it.  (I'm not sure what precipitated this behavior, but it's not the upgrade to 8.1, as it happened before that.)  If it matters, the catalog is on an external hard drive.  This hasn't mattered before.  Also, I share this catalog with someone using Elements 11 for the Mac.  This too, has worked in the past.  The only thing I can think of that might be related is that we upgraded my friend's computer recently and imported the whole collection into iPhoto on her Mac.  But that didn't involve Elements at all.  Any ideas?  I have tried shutting down and rebooting to no avail.
    Note that Elements 11 Editor will launch and fully open just fine.  I tried switching from there, but that, too, didn't work.
    Many thanks,
    copperberry
    UPDATE:  It turns out the Organizer was stuck on a third monitor that was disabled.  Once I extended the screen to that monitor, I could see the Organizer, move it to the screen I wanted and then revert back to my original display setup (2 external monitors, laptop monitor disabled.)

    First, you may need to install the Adobe licensing-service update:

    If that doesn't help, try Adobe's generic troubleshooting steps, which include installing with anti-virus disabled and running as administrator:

  • Why will some email attachments not open with firefox but will with another browser

    PDF attachments and some pictures won't open.

    The latest Reader is 11.0.01, not 11.0.1.  It is named Adobe Reader XI.
    I did uninstall the Reader X and installed this latest one.
    But it did not solve the problem, still could not open the problem pdf's .
    I did find the problem was caused by the MS Office Click to Run error referred to in my original message.  As far as I know we have no use for that on my wife's computer. Not sure how it got there.   I uninstalled it and so far the problem pdf's open fine now.  Problem solved.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Why will my itunes icon not open, when I tap on it on my iphone?

    For the last 5 days I have been unable to open my itunes app from my iphone. Everytime I tap on it, it will open for about 5 seconds then close completely out without an error message or anything. I tried resetting my phone, and powering it off and on, yet nothing is working. All of my other apps work just fine (including the App Store) but iTunes will not open at all. Is there anyone that can help me fix this? It be greatly appreciated, thank you!!

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Also try a  Reset all settings
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
    This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.
    If no joy...
    1)  Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and Restore
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11) Installed on your computer
    iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download

  • HT3775 Why will QT 10.3 not open my .mov files after installing Mavericks?

    Why do some of my .mov files not open with QT after installing Mavericks?

    Were you using Perian before? I'm not sure about this, but I don't think it does anything in Mavericks as the plug-in API changed. I have no idea how to check if Perian is actually doing anything anymore. The developers have ceased supporting it.
    Try playing in VLC.

  • Why will my address book not open it says not supported on this architecture

    When I clicked on my address book widget a received a note that says "not supported on this architecture" and would not open my address book. 
    I have never had this problem before.  Can anyone help me resolve this issue?  I am not computer savy so please be patient with me.

    When I select the AB application in the applications finder when I click on it it gives me the same message about not being supported by this architecture.  I can tell you I bought this computer 3 years ago. Sorry I warned you I am NOT a computer person that is why I have a mac

  • Why will the raw editor not open up in the editor

    I have started to shot photos in raw and after I load them into the organizer, they are converting to jpeg.  When I opened the editor, the photos are all in jpeg instead of raw.  What am I doing wrong.  I tried to delete from the organizer but it is also deleting from iPhoto

    Well, you generally don't want to use both organizer and iphoto, but if you are sending the photos out of iphoto you must tell iphoto that you want it to send the raw files. Go to the iphoto preferences>advanced and turn on Use RAW when using an external editor, or it will always send jpegs.
    But really, double managing your photos will make you crazy, sooner or later.
