Will existing mac site continue to show after transfer to new host?

I am preparing to transfer my mac iWeb site to GoDaddy in preparation for the June close down. And I don't have a domain name so will buy one from them too.
If I do all this now, will my website continue to show on web.me.com until June 30, or will it disappear from there immediately I transfer to GoDaddy?
Also is it possible to give the new site exactly the same address as the present one? I'm guessing it is not possible. But if it is, then I would prefer do that and forgo the chance to have both sites running together - if indeed that is possible.

If you want to automatically redirect visitors to your GoDaddy website from your MMe site see the Redirection section of Page 2 of Roger Wilmut's Migrating from MobileMe website. Method 2 can be applied using the iWeb SEO app (Site Settings section) to the MMe version while they are on the MMe server.
Another method would be to add the following code to each page of the MMe site again using the Site Settings section of iWeb SEO:
<meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="5;url=http:/domain_name.com/page_name.html"> </head>
Each page would have a different entry based on the page name.

Will my Mac Book continue to work after spillage?

I spiled a large amount of tea on my MBP on 17 March, it shutdown immediately. I tried booting up the next day and it would not, so I then brought it to an Apple technician for a diagnostic. I was told it would require a new battery, powerboard and keyboard, all costing as much as a new one to purchase. I decided to go ahead and make the new purchase, until yesterday the 25th, when my husband pressed the power button and it started up without any trouble. It has been working fine since then, except that I have to use the charger as the battery will not charge. My question is, will the machine stay working like this, or will hidden problems occur and cause it to deteriorate over time? I am just looking for some advice as to what is the best to do going forward, thanks in advance.

Easy way to link to your existing .Mac site...

After reading the PDF file that came with iWeb... it says on page 20, first go to your .Mac site in your browser, then click to highlight the address in the address bar. Now go to iWeb, and in my case, to my initial Welcome page, then just click and drag your existing .Mac site address from the browser (Safari) to the top banner in your iWeb page and drop it along with all the other pages you have listed at the top.
Jeez, it worked the first time!
I guess there's a reason they take the time to type these Help files...

All Mac apps don't work after cloning on new hd.

All Mac apps don't work after cloning on new hd.
I used CCC to clone 10.6.8 then onto new drive. Everything works BUT all Mac apps.
Error: You can't open the app(s) because it is not supported on this type of Mac. (On MacBook 2011)
Thanks for your help.

All good. Just drag and dropped each application and they worked until I did a restart. Then repaired permissions and everything works.

Will existing Time Machine back ups build after 1 account migration

I have one i-Mac happily backing up with Time Machine to an external hard drive.
I have just bought a second i-mac (the old one's filling up) and propose to use migration assistant to move an admin account from the old to the new i-mac leaving two other accounts (and their files etc) on the old one. I see from some posts that it seems as if Time Machine will start a new back up series for the new i-mac's back ups (cos its a new MAC address). But what about the old i-mac? Will that continue to extend the existing (old) Time Machine back up files, albeit without my transferred account and its files? I'd like to end up with the old i-mac continuing to work with and build its Time Machine back ups (less my account and its new files) and have a new back up series from the new i-mac building to a separate partition on the external drive.
Second minor point: I have read that putting a partition on the external drive is the best way forward as it will stop competition for space and allow changes in one set up in future to have no impact on the other. Is this the best way forward?
Does this all make sense?
Sorry but I can't see an answer in the forum to what must be a reasonably common issue in this expanding mac world.

I then tried to move it (TM back up files) off with Restore, whilst preserving the TM back ups but I couldn't seem to do it to the i-Macs hard drive nor to partition that to allow this to happen (assuming the lack of a discrete partition was the problem).
That's likely correct. This only works if you restore one entire partition to another, and check the +Erase destination+ box.
The problem was that I could not (maybe for the same contiguous reasons) create a new partition on the old i-Mac just to temporarily move the TM back up to. Without it I could not 'empty' the WDC firewire drive and partition it prior to returning the TM back ups to it albeit contiguously in a dedicated partition.
Unfortunately for me to retain the TM back ups for the account I moved to the new i-Mac, I will have to leave that account on the old i-Mac as well. I can't see a way around that? If I delete the account on it then surely I will lose the ability to Log onto it and then to click TM and see back in time on that account?
If I understand you correctly, that will be true eventually, but not immediately, as TM will, eventually, delete it's copies of anything that's no longer on your internal HD. That will depend, of course, on how long TM can keep it's backups. But while they're still there, if you log on with Admin privileges, you should be able to view the old backups.
Not sure I explained myself clearly. Sorry. Having understood from your earlier help that 'migrate' actually means 'make a copy in another place', I have the migrated account in two places: one now dormant, on the old i-Mac and two, where it is migrated to (the new i-Mac). But TM continues to back up all accounts, indeed everything, on the old i-Mac by dint of its MAC address. So to see the migrated account's past history I assume I have to access the version on the old i-Mac. To put it another way, when logged into one account on the old i-Mac I believe it is not possible to see the TM history and files of another account on that i-Mac despite TM backing the entire HD. You have to be logged in to that account to see it. On the new i-Mac, with its different MAC address, TM is busy creating the first TM back up and I assumed that in the migrate it did not bring TM history as I had read that it is MAC address specific.
The only issue (apart from having this account's history spread over two machines (pre-today on the old i-Mac's TM and today onwards on the new i-Mac) is that I have all the files on both machines. I am not worried about security only unnecessary usage of disk space. It isn't critical, there's lots of it, but it just seems wasteful and untidy. Unless you guys know otherwise?
If I understand what you've done, you do have duplicates of the current contents, but only one copy of the old backups (on the old F/W drive).
On the old i-Mac I have the two accounts I wanted to stay there plus the now dormant account I migrated. TM continues to work away at memorising ALL these although there will be no further changes to the dormant migrated account as I will not be running it on the old i-Mac. On the new i-Mac I have the migrated account of which TM is now creating its first (huge) back up but starting today. There is no history here. So I have copies of everything; its just that the old history of the migrated account remains on the old i-Mac and a new history (does that make sense?) is building from the new one. My point was that if I were to delete the dormant account from the old i-Mac, then I could not access it to use TM with it. I believe TM only shows the history of the account and screen you're in at the time?
There is an option in TM that will allow you to selectively +Delete all backups of+ selected items. +Enter Time Machine,+ locate and select the item(s), click the "gear" icon in the Finder window's toolbar, and select the +Delete all backups of ..+ option.
What you can't do is, keep the backups of only previous versions of things that were changed or deleted. It's all or nothing.
Not sure I understand this. What would have been nice but I do not think is possible is to have moved the account to the new i-Mac together with the TM's back ups of that account and continue to build it up (whilst having access to its history) on the new i-Mac. If that were (is?) possible I could have totally deleted the old account and with it its files from the old i-Mac, freed up some HD space and had a full AND growing TM history all on the new i-Mac.
Many thanks for staying the course and for your continuing help.

I changed my website's host and although I can access all existing mail and folders via the cpanel at my new host, my PC account now doesn't show the folders?

I had to change the details of my mail accounts to the new mail server details of the new host and also the port. All files have been deleted off the previous server.
I did have a lot of folders with emails stored and I can access these through the mail option on my new host's cpanel. However, they have disappeared from my still existing version of TB that I have running on my PC.
I did do a back up copy a few weeks ago but I don't know how to reinstall that. I also figure if it exists on the new server / host, there may be a way to 'pull them back in' to my existing profile?
Thanks in advance for any help :-)

I'd suggest to check with your service provider about their IMAP server. It's functionality may be limited, or you may need to configure something on the server.

After transfer to new IMac "original file could not be found" (more)

The music transfers into iTunes, plays once or twice and then eventually gives me this "original file could not be found" message and takes me to finder.
Now all my music does this though. Some of it transfers and stays.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!

I have the same problem except almost every song I bought from Itunes has this problem. Not only that, but somehow some of the music, about $125 worth has been deleted form my 3 back up discs. This is only happening with my purchases and not any songs I uploaded from cd. How on earth did this happen, and how did it wipe clean 3 different back ups? I have found some of the music where it belongs, but like I said some of them are gone, gone, gone. I run three different back ups and they are on 24/7. Where is all of this music? I still have it on my ipod, but it will not load back into itunes the way purchases used to. Some of the music is purchased straight to my ipod touch, but shouldn't i be able to reload them into itunes? I spent 3 hours going 1 song at a time reloading them from their original location. But I cannot locate about $125 worth of music that I purchased from itunes. I have 6 macs in my family and preach the good news to all who will listen about hows macs are flawless. Now I have egg all over my face and have thrown away a nice sum of money on missing music. Please help!

How to make new Mac Pro with iWeb 08 see my existing .mac site.

About a year ago I bought a new Mac Pro. Before that I had a G4 that I had used with an older version of iWeb to create a basic website for my business. I figured with the new Mac when I opened iWeb 08 it would see my .mac settings in System prefs and automatically open it but it does not. It will only let me creat a new site, there is no way to redirect it to an existing site.
Anyone know how I do this or what I am doing wrong?
Thanks

Youtube, Netflix, and other sites continue playing audio after the tab is closed

If you are watching a video on Youtube, Netflix, or another site and you close the tab, the audio continues to play in the background. Restarting the browser resolves the issue.

I was directed here from my question: "[http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/928868 Flash video stops and starts but audio continues]"
Flash videos freeze momentarily then fast forward/catch up while the audio continues to play without a problem. Interestingly, I noticed on one video it freezes at the same spot (about 27-28 seconds in) each time I try it. Audio does continue for a split second after I close a tab (that's normal) but it ''does not'' keep going and I don't have to restart FF to stop the audio. Also, I am already using FF13 and it didn't resolved my issue.
I'm using Win XP with FF 13 but the problem has been going on for about a month (ie under FF12 as well). The problem also occurs under IE which makes me believe that Adobe Flash is the culprit (I also tested Quicktime videos and they worked fine). Flash video seems to work fine under Win7 (rarely freezes) and Ubuntu.
I looked through similar questions (see above link) and did find one thing that works but it is only a temporary fix for me. One person had HTML5 problems and had to opt out on Youtube. I did the opposite - I opted in and the videos worked fine. However, I like to stick on private browsing which would require me to 'opt in' each time I go to Youtube. Additionally, I encounter the same problem on other sites with flash video and they don't have an HTML5 option.
I also noticed that I do not have the problem at work on an XP machine with same addons in FF. Flash is v11,1,102,62 (at home I think I have the most updated: 11.2.202.235). I updated the XP machine at work to the latest flash and it still seems to work fine.
I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling flash, starting FF in safe mode, turning off my firewall and I my internet speed is fine (15Mbps down). I thought it could be my video card but videos on my computer play fine as did the quicktime video. I'm at a loss.

I have multiple phantom books in ibooks on my iPad.They are no longer on my mac, but continue to show up as multiple ghost- unfinished downloads on iPad

I have multiple copies of phantom books in ibooks on my ipad. By phantom I mean, that they appear to be partially downloaded. They will not resume downloading or allow deletion. None of these books are on my mac, they have been deleted. These are books were not purched from the apple store, they are simply book files that I had on my mac. Any ideas on how to rid myself of these pesky epub and pdf files? Thanks Dan

Hello dallentownsend
Try deleting iBooks app from your iPad and then download the app again to remove any previous books that were downloaded or attempted to download. Then just download your books purchased again.

HT5527 Will my @mac mail account be alive after this?

All I want is the mail address. thx.

iCloud is the successor to MobileMe. MobileMe shuts down forever tomoorrow.
If you only want to use the email portion of your previous MobileMe account you can. You do not have to use all the other features of iCloud, just like you didn't have to use all the other features of MobileMe.
The email account has not really changed at all. Just the server address it comes from.
The sending emails problem you are having, is this on your Mac in Mail, in webmail at iCloud.com or on your iOS device?
When it doesn't succeed in sending, what does it do? Any error message?
What mail server settings are you using in Mail? What version of Mac OS X are you using?

IPhoto - Backup failure after transfer to new Mac

I just migrated everything over from my iMac to the new Mac Pro and plugged in the external hard drive I'd been using to back files up using the .Mac utility "Backup." I made no changes to the schedules I'd set up previously. All backup schedules are working except for the iPhoto one. I get a "Backup has failed" message after it works away for a while. Does this imply my iPhoto file is corrupt in some way, or what might be happening here?
Help appreciated as always.

ICal will not sync in 10.5.5 after erase and new install!!! HELP

I had to do an erase and install of Leopard, and now my iCal will not sync.
Thanks to it being such a great application I now sync my iMac at home, my iPhone, my iBook, and my G5 tower at work all to each other, I now depend on it for client meetings and personal dates and just everyday functioning!
How do I fix this? What do I need to do to get my me.com calendar in sync with my iMac and the rest of my computers and iPhone.
I appreciate any and all advice to get this working again. Monday's already here!
APPLE please do not ignore this!
Thanks
Steve Amaral

Latest update 5 July. I just downloaded 10.5.4 and at least ical opens! The icon is still grayed out (not sure if that is a sign and symptom of some other problem) Not sure how well the program will work with Entourage and the rest of the applications after reading other posts about 10.5.4 Thanks for all the posts and I followed them to a T with no success until I downloaded 10.5.4
NOTE TO APPLE: I bought this machine to avoid the Window problems! It's nice to see you guys are following the leader! This Leopard OS is a mess! I regret nearly every day I made the switch! The IBM compatible laptop I bought after buying this machine (that's right no multiple mistakes) works flawlessly with Vista.

Acrobat XI Pro Serial Number Invalid after transfer to new Mac

I recently got the new MacBook Pro OS X 10.9 and when I started up my computer I transferred all of my information over to my new Mac from my old MacBook (2008 version).
I was happy that my Acrobat XI Pro transfered over, but it only transfered as a "trial" software and all previous records of purchasing my sofware in my account at Adobe are now gone. I thought I would be fine because the trial software frequently reminds me that it is a trial, and prompts me for my serial number. I have my serial number from my previous Acrobat saved and entered that number. When I do, this message pops up,
"This serial number is not valid for Acrobat XI Pro. You can either use a valid serial number for Acrobat XI Pro or use this serial number on the appropriate product."
What???
Please help, my trial ends soon and I've run out of options. I can't lose this expensive software!

Hi NLC alamo,
Adobe does not recommend using any migration software to transfer the software.
Please remove Acrobat and reinstall it and use the serial number to activate it.

After transfer to new mac lots of image not supported!

Hello all.
I have just tranferred to a new imac and copied over my aperture folder.
In one particular project as I click on each image the image breifly shows then appears to currpot and is replaced with a black box saying its unsupported.
they are from a nikon D50 which I believe we supported from the first aperture release.
Further more a lot of the image thumbnails, are showing at 90 degrees and distorted. Selecting the image shows the correct one but the tumbnail remains distorted,
How can I fix this?
Cheers

Sadly that has not worked. All images in this folder are showing the wrong thumbnails and a lot of them have become unsupported.
I really suspect its aperture not really able to cope with some many adjustments. This folder has around 300 images which I call 'on white' simple pictures with a white background. because I don't have the lighting every single one at the minimum has contrast, exposure, sharpening and white balance enhancements and its this folder thats gone wrong. All the other 60,000 or photos it would appear are just fine and these photos only occasionally have adjustment.
Thankfully its not the end of the world, I have not yet sold my old imac which still has the intact images. presumably I can output the original masters reimport them into my new make and make all the adjustments again.
