Won't publish my changes....

I use iWeb 09, published my site using MobileMe. It worked perfect. BUT now when I have made changes it won't publish my changes and the icons stays red. I tried Publish site, Publish site changes, Publish entire site. I successfully published my website to a folder on my HD. I updated Iweb, signed out of MobileMe, signed in tried again, over and over and over.... nothing works
Need help!
Thanks

Update: It's working now, for the time being. It's my experience that it's been working on and off for this past weekend up to now. I don't know if anyone else was experiencing problems in that time frame.
I spent that last weekend doing some significant changes to the site, adding a new logo, background and that coverflow animation you see on all the root pages. The site is comprised of 11 pages and 5 blogs, with many entires in each of those 5 blogs. I affected changes to each page, including all the blog entries, and then tried to publish yesterday morning. I think that's when the trouble really started, because I was publishing a high volume of pages at once – MobileMe doesn't seem to like that. This is when I started trying to move the pages to a new site within iWeb, which eventually crashed the program and caused all my early entries in all 5 blogs to get corrupted (that's what I'm calling it at least, because if I clicked on those entries I just got a blank white screen, and if I tried to publish before deleting them I got the "An Unknown Error Occurred" message each time).
What I'm interested in is your suggestion to use Cyber Duck. I've ran into this suggestion before on these forums and so, yesterday, I downloaded Cyber Duck, but am totally clueless on how to use it. I know nothing about FTP but would like to know if A.) will the site load faster going through an FTP service like Cyber Duck or (the other one I hear about a lot) Web Maestro; and B.) If it will make the site load faster, how complicated is the change over and could someone walk a FTP illiterate person like me through the process. I update the site daily and so I can't complicate the process of publishing too much. I hear Web Maestro has selective publishing, maybe that's the way to go?
Also, I've disabled comments on my site anyway, so no fear of that.
Sorry this ran a little long.

  • IWeb won't publish my changes

    Publishing to: FTP Server
    Appears to be functioning normally--no errors or anything.
    I made a change a moment ago that wokred as expected but now it's a no go. Even with saved changes and a reboot.
    I just need to change an"i" to a "u". Silly little typo is crashing my morning! Ugh.

    Try clearing your browser's cache (Command+Option+E for Safari) and reload the site in your browser.

  • ICal won't automatically publish my changes

    I have iCal (3.0.6) set to publish several of my calendars. When I first told it to publish, I DID click the "Publish changes automatically" check-box, however, iCal is simply not publishing any changes. When I right click on the calendar name, the "Publish" option is grayed out, whether there are changes or not. The only way I have found to publish the changes is to get info on the calendar, click "Change Location", then click Ok, and it will republish. This is quite annoying to have to do every time I make a change. Is there anything someone can think of that I can do to fix this?

    Nick,
    That is not the window (http://nickchich.com/stuff/getinfo.jpg) which I see when I use the iCal>Calendar>Change Location... menu choice.
    This is what I see on my system simply using "Get Info":
    This is what I see using iCal>Calendar>Change Location... menu choice.:
    I am not sure what to say about the difference, or what influence it may or may not have with the problem.
    How/When did you update to 10.5.6?

  • Why won't iWeb publish my changes?

    I have a rather involved photographic website that we just updated to include more and recent photos. When I tried to publish the changes, I got an error message. Eventually removed one of the photo-laden pages and tried publishing again, and it gave me the message that the site was published successfully. However, when I visited the site (www.stevefossimages.com) none of the changes were there. Yes, I refreshed, I shut down, rebooted, everything I could think of but none of the changes are there. Even the page I removed (Flowers) is still appearing on the site, even though it's not there in iWeb!
    Please help!

    Try publishing the site to a folder on your hard drive and open the local copy with your browser to verify all changes are there. 
    Once you confirm that they are try uploading the site folder and files to your server with a 3rd party FTP client like the free  Cyberduck. 
    Many users have reported success with 3rd party FTP clients when they've had problems with iWeb's built in FTP client.

  • IWeb won't publish changes to website without adding "/SiteName"

    I'm trying to publish changes to my website with a URL that is an established domain name.
    When I click "Publish Site", iWeb adds "/SiteName" to the URL and the changes are
    published to "URL/SiteName". But when I search for my site on Google (it pops up
    readily as the website has been accessed many many times), the OLD, UNCHANGED
    website with the old URL comes up. To get the revised website, users would have
    to specifically use the CHANGED URL, "URL/SiteName."
    Every time I try to remove "Site Name" from the blank for Site name, iWeb puts
    "SiteName" back in. How do I keep the Site name slot blank so that iWeb will
    publish my changes to the old familiar URL that can be found on Google?
    As a Server engineer commented to me, "There has been a folder called [SiteName] uploaded
    recently to the root [URL] of your account. This make me suspect that iWeb is set to publish in the
    wrong directory. Make sure it is publishing to the public_html directory."
    I put "public_html" into Directory/Path. Still no changes to my website at URL; changes have
    been published only to "URL/SiteName".
    Any help available?

    That is the way that iWeb works and it is normal practice to get the url with the Sitename in it.  As you have found, if you try to leave the sitename blank, iWeb will put it back in.
    The server engineer that you spoke to is correct that your site folder has been uploaded to your 'public_html" folder on your server.
    If you want your url without the sitename included, then you need to upload the contents only from your site folder and NOT the whole folder itself and then your url will be http://www.domain.com without the http://www.domain.com/sitename/page name.html.
    You can achieve this by publishing your site to a local folder from iWeb and then you need to download an ftp programme such as Cyberduck or Yummy ftp.  You then use either of these 2 to upload only the contents of your site folder to your 'public_html' folder on your server and if you just upload the contents and NOT the whole folder itself, then your url will be http://www.domain.com.
    Sometimes putting 'public_html' into the Directory/Path will not work and you'll need to strart from scratch, so you'll need an ftp programme so that you can link up to your server and you can see exactly what is in your public_html folder on your server and delete the site folder and start again, by then uploading just the contents of your site folder rather than the whole folder itself.
    Ultimately, what you need to do is upload the contents and the contents only of your site folder and NOT the whole folder itself to get your url back to http://www.domain.com without the sitename.

  • IWeb won't Publish Site

    Hi,
    Everything works fine until I add a flash music video or any video to the page then it won't Publish. But if I remove the videos from the page it will Publish. (this is not an embed code but instead a link set up from the hyperlink menu when I click on the "inspector" dialog box.
    Or should I instead use the embed code from my upload site?
    Has this something to do with memory? I followed the advice that was posted on another "help" column to change the memory setting in the MobileMe page for iDisk, but that didn't work either.

  • IWeb won't publish to .mac

    For the last 2 days, every time I try to publish iWeb to .mac, a box comes up asking for my password. I enter it, but nothing happens.
    I think I may have an iDisk problem or a .mac login problem.
    Someone please help. I need to republish asap!!!!!

    I have encountered the same problems - my site was fine until yesterday when I decided to change it and now it won't publish.
    Let me know if you figure out what happened
    I'm using iWeb 06 and have not upgraded to the new one. I did install some software updates that come in automatically. I wonder if that might be the problem.
    When I try to visit site - I get a download popup and my pages (name only appear on my desktop but they are blank and nothing happens when I click on the icon. Weird - weird - weird

  • Won't Publish

    I deleted an entry from my Blog by going to the entries page and simply clicking Delete entry. Now I try to Publish the site again so that the changes occur, but I get a message saying that there was an error publishing. So it just won't work. What am I to do?
    thanks

    i can only tell you i have had very bad luck making iWeb publish. I could tell a few things that seemed to have helped other people:
    1. discount a router if you are one, direct connect to your high speed connection (if you have one)
    2. delete the preferences. See other post here for directions. See the 'iWeb Still Won't Publish' thread.
    3. do not have any other network activity going on. No iTunes, no mail, no downloads ETC.
    4. reinstall.

  • I changed my iCloud account ID but my new phone won't let me change it. It keeps asking me for for my old ID password and won't let me delete the account unless I turn off the find my phone feature. It won't let me do this because it will not accept my ol

    I changed my ICloud account  ID but my new phone won't let me change it unless I put in my old password and turn off the find my phone feature. But the phone will not recognize my old password. Can someone help me?

    New iPhones don't come setup with an Apple ID/Password. What you're experiencing is called Activation Lock, & unless you know the original Apple ID/Password that was originally used to first activate this phone, you won't be able to reactivate it.
    You can login to iCloud.com, from any computer, use Find My Phone to locate & erase the phone. But, you'll still need to know the original Apple ID/Password to reactivate it.

  • I want to load Firefox on my computer at home, which is not connected to the internet. I want to download Firefox to my flashdrive and then add it to my computer at home. When I try to download Firefox, it won't let me change the path of where it download

    I want to download Firefox on a flashdrive so I can then download it to my home computer which is not connected to the internet. When I download Firefox, it won't let me change the path and so tries to download on a public computer, which isn't allowed. The reason I want it on my home computer is because I'm creating web pages and I want to view my html pages using a variety of browsers, including Firefox.

    From another computer, go to http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/, click "Free download" button, click "Save File" button, select your flash drive in "Save as" window. "Firefox Setup 3.6.13.exe" file will be saved in your flash drive.
    You just need to insert it in your new computer and double-click on "Firefox Setup 3.6.13.exe" from Windows Explorer and follow instructions.

  • HT201210 my iPhone won't let me change my email when I go to update my apps... please help!!!

    I made the mistake of changing my email, however because it was an email that wasn't activated anymore I thought it would be in my best interest to do so. However with a new email came a new password ... and it seems that my phone can't accept the fact that I changed my email, and won't let me change it - so my password is Always wrong, when I know it's not. How do I change my email? I am about the restore my phone to factory settings... but I'm hoping that is a last resort... please help!
    much appreciated!

    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • My iPhone and iPad are on my moms icloud account and i just got a macbook air and i want all my devices on my own iCloud account - i went to all of my settings and it won't let me change my iCloud account on my phone and iPad. can i change this?

    My iPhone and iPad are on my moms icloud account and i just got a macbook air and i want all my devices on my own iCloud account - i went to all of my settings and it won't let me change my iCloud account on my phone and iPad. can i change this?

    You will have to do more than simply changing settings in your moms account. To set up everything in your own account, go to Settings > iCloud > scroll down and press sign out. From this, check out this link for how to setup iCloud on all of your devices after making a new icloud account on your phone: https://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
    Before you set that up, you will have to make a new iCould account which you can simply do after you sign out of your mom's account on your devices.
    Hope I can help!
