Www as part of website address?

I have recently uploaded a website I created in iweb. It looks great, but I've discovered the address can't include www. If you try to access the site by entering "www.web.mac.com/myname/iWeb it tells you there is an error. Is this because I am currently only on a "trial" .mac account, and will it change when I purchase a full subscription, or will my site address still need to be http://web.mac.com/my name/iWeb...without www?
Maybe I have made some other error in setting the site up? Has anyone got any ideas on this question

I use goDaddy for my domain names, as do many other and I forward them to my .mac account.
How to set up Forwarding in goDaddy
Once you have logged in to godaddy.
Click on Domains, lefthand side, from the drop down menu, choose, My Domain Names.
Now, tick the box next to your domain name and then click on Forward Domains, just above.
In the Forward To: box Enter the url you want to forward to. (http://web.mac.com/YourUserName)
If you are running more than one site on your .mac account then you are better off to forward to http://web.mac.com/YourUserName/iWeb/SiteName, make sure that the W in iWeb is a capital W.
To use masking (Users only see www.YourDomainName.com in the address bar)
Tick Mask Domain
The in the Masked Title, enter www.YourDomainName.com
Now click Save Changes
and logout!
Here are two examples, both my sites.
Forwarding only www.willg4pb.com

  • Why can't I forward pictures, graphics, website addresses included in an email to me, to other people in my address book?

    When I attempt to forward an email with a picture, graphics, website address included in the body of the email, the picture, graphics, or website address either disappears entirely or fades out to where it cannot be used.

    Firefox does not do email and does not have an address book. You need to indicate what you are using for email. The question does not sound like a Firefox question,
    but if you have the "Google Toolbar" extension it is known to interfere with Microsoft mail applications. But you need to provide more information like did it work before and when did it stop working.
    Some web mail applicatons do use Shockwave Flash and your is seriously out of date.
    Flash -- make sure Flash is up to date -- http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    *the current Flash is 10.3.181.34 -- "More system details" on this page only shows "Shockwave Flash 10.3 r181" which in insufficient to tell if you are up to date or not.
    *:also check all plugins through the '''about:plugins''' link
    *:to http://www.mozilla.com/plugincheck/

    *KwiClick a search add-on and may interfere with Flash ([https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/836717 836717])
    <p>Some people will have a problem with Hardware acceleration, right-click in the flash area, click in settings..., then see if change setting makes a difference.

  • HT4759 Where is the website address for my iCloud content, apps, email etc?

    Where is the website address where I can access and manage my iCloud content, apps, email etc?

    Apps are not in iCloud. They are in App Store and you can access them through iOS device.
    For Email, Contacts, Calendar, Notes, Reminders and iWork go to www.icloud.com from a desktop browser.

  • When I am NOT private browsing Firefox will not allow me to delete or change the website address in the location bar. My only remedy is to open a new window and search in google then click the link to that site through google. How can I resolve this?

    Question
    When I am NOT private browsing Firefox will not allow me to delete or change the website address in the location bar. My only remedy is to open a new window and search in google then click the link to that site through google. When I swap to private browsing firefox allows me to anter the website address directly into the location bar - but this is a slow [prcess to swap back and forth - also by dint of using private browsing I loose my website information.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Website address field doesn't display in safari

    I was in safari and I downloaded a pdf file and then worked on this file.  When I went back to safari, the website address bar and google search bar no longer appeared.  I can open up new windows by selecting the tab + but I cannot enter in a website address because there is no place to type it.  If that makes sense.

    Choose Show Toolbar or Customize Toolbar from the View menu and put it back.

  • Is there a field for the website address when creating a contact?

    is there a field for a website address when creating a contact?

    I ended up getting a new phone, straight through Apple.  I called their technical support and went through all he basics again and they decided to replace it.  Was a pretty quick process - after defaulting and resetting the whole phone (about 2 hours),  I called them back to inform that there was no change, so they set up the order.
    I had to give my CC# so they could hold a charge on it (in case I didn't send my old phone bach, which they sent me a pre-posted package to send it in anyway).  Had a brand new iPhone 4S in my hands in 4 days, which was pretty decent.  I had uploaded everything previously to iCloud, so setting up the new phone was a snap.
    Only thing I really didn't like was they charged me almost 30 bucks for shipping or processing, or something.  Not so sure that should have been my responsibility after spending so much on a brand new product, only to have to have it warrantied after, like, a month.

    Just go to iCloud on your iPad. Click on delete account - this will delete the account on your iPad only. You will be given to keep the addresses and calendar or delete the data.
    Then you create your new account on you iPad by entering your apple id.

  • No address bar up top to enter website address, also I don't see File, bookmarks, etc tabs

    My wife's laptop (Window XP) does not show any website address bar up top and the tabs for File, Edit, Bookmarks, etc are missing. I can't figure out how to get them to show up. I tried downloading the most recent version of Firefox, but it did not work. I was thinking about uninstalling firefox and reinstalling, but wanted to check beforehand.
    Thanks!

    See [[menu bar is missing]], it shows how to restore the menu bar and other toolbars.

  • Website address does not display on pop up window

    Hi,
    I'm running Firefox 19.0.2 on a Win 7 64 bit version PC and have noticed that on popup windows, when the address bar is present, I get the "Go to a Web Site" message on it rather than the address of the website. If I right click on the little world icon on the address bar and choose Customise and then close that window without making any changes, the website address gets populated. Does anyone know how to get the website address to be displayed automatically on the popup? My Win XP Pro PC doesn't have this problem and the popups always display the website address without having to do anything.
    Thanks

    Thanks very much for your help guys! The problem was '''not''' present in Safe Mode so I disabled the Extensions and discovered that the "RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin" was the culprit.
    My Win XP PC did not exhibit the same problem since the RealPlayer plugin was not compatible and as such was effectively disabled.
    Many thanks for your help.

  • Nothing happens when I write in a website address! But it works if I go via bookmarks.

    I also got problem with e-ID. The connecton with the ssecurity program does not work. I have both the program and ID-certificate.
    I installed Firefox 10 yesterday.
    I am in a hurry - I am going abroad tomorrow morning.
