  • This video help me decide to build my site in iweb. I bought a domain as well as a popular posting site (Dyndot). I did everything I'm supposed to do, but cannot get my site uploaded by Easy iweb, nor through and FTF exporter Cyberduck. It's been a week now of going back and forth with the host site staff neither I, or the staff there can figure out what I'm doing wrong. I built a web site through iweb about 4 years ago and remember have huge problems back then. Anybody else?

  • How can I publish from iWEb to Tumblr.com...Im so confused

  • i don't have the "Publish to folder" Option

  • @roelsluper Do you know when you first opened iweb ? There was a 'site' button in the top left corner . Click that and the the mobileme thing comes up . Then there is a drop down menu click 'Local folder' from there its pretty much the same :) Hope this helped xx

  • i dont have the publlish to a folder option

  • I just tried it but got a red dot that said, Remote Directory does not exist.

    Any ideas? My domain is hosted by yahoo.

    I got pretty far thanks to your video but can't get passed this hurdle.

    Thank you in advance!

  • hi could you tell me were to find 'publish to a folder' it is not under file as in you vid were else will it be i have iweb 3.0.1 and cant find it any were

  • @nospoc Click on the website name in the left website layout directory column. Your first option under Site Publishing Settings is publish to and you drop down menu choose folder. His video was for the old version. Hope this helps.

  • @JMRsDesk  you are a gent ,

  • hi could you tell me were to find 'publish to a folder' it is not under file as in you vid were else will it be i have iweb 3.0.1 and cant find it anywere

  • Thank you, I've been dealing with firezilla and have been utterly confused. I really appreciate the clarity, it's working perfectly.

  • where do you find your isp??

  • Out of all the video tutorials that 'help' you upload iWeb sites to the internet - yours is the best by a million miles and was the only 1 that worked for me. Cheers dude!

  • If a person publishes the site to a folder instead of mobileMe and use easy iweb publisher, he cannot access personal data on a different computer connected to the server using files in his external or flash drive.

    Is there other way to let two people work on different macs without having to use mobileMe?

  • dekuscrubbyfan.. Hey sorry this didn't work out for you. I'm not the author of the tutorial. Was just saying that if you have iWeb09 and you know the FTP address of your hosting sight, you can put that in the server box of the FTP settings section along with the user name and password you created for your hosting sight. My recommendation is to go with Mobile Me for the $99 then you get hosting, email, 20GB disk storage and more. Remember, you have to purchase your domain name first. Approx $5 US

  • Also, I think after reading lots of the comments - it should be re-named.

    :)

  • I have done everything in this video. It sais the configuration is 'OK' but then it says 'Failed to upload file'. Does anyone know why this is? Cause I am stumped. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks.

  • Thank muchas gracias!!!! me sirvio mucho From Mexico Congratulations!!

  • Thanks so much. This works for older versions of iWeb, but this is now incorporated into newest iWeb in iLife 09.

  • @cscottred Thanks for telling us this

  • @cscottred Uhh, this isn't bloody easy at all! It won't let me publish my website and I've done everything in this stupid tutorial! >:(

  • That is awesome! Thanks Jason!

  • this crap has not been working... i am an advanced mac user and this crap takes forever and dosent even work...

  • i dont have the puplish to a folder wtf

  • I finally got the configuration right and a "Site successfully uploaded" once I submitted. However, when I go to the website via Safari, none of the updates are up. Does this take some time? I updated the entire site so I may just be being impatient. Any thoughts? TY in advance.

  • dont do it this way use DropBox coz its also Free and u can make the name of your site what ever you want just look on youtube on how to do it coz im not going 2 tell

  • Brilliant! Thank you SO much!

  • can anybody recommend hosting companies for hosting an iWeb site on that isn't mobileme?

  • x10hosting is free hosting.

  • what is its ftp?

  • This sucks.

    Everything worked out great but then when i went to see my site, it said it couldnt find the website.

    Wow.

  • How do u get an ftp address thingy??

  • Great video.. Thanks so much. You rock!

  • You can publish directly to an independent ftp client in iweb 09 som this video only apply to iweb 08 or earlier versions.

  • ...Or You Can Use Dropbox...

  • I don't have the publish to a folder option please help!

  • @willythetomato - did you ever get a response because I'm having the same problem

  • @bman1209 maybe you use iLife 09? Try and click on the Main Page (the first page) and select: Publish to Local Folder

    Hope that helps :)

    anyway, if their is someone out there, please help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • is there a limit to how many websites you publish? or can you only make one?

  • Not sure if you got the answer but this might help. I think you have to publish all your websites at the same time and if you want to publish them separately download iWebSites 2.4 for Mac 08.

  • Thanks so much for this!

  • I don't understand how to get the htp. Can you please help?

  • I can't wait to try this later this week! I've been stressing about paying $150 a year for Mobileme, and I don't want a .mac domain name because that's not standard. This seems easy enough but just in case, I have an appt at the genius bar for Saturday if I need troubleshooting.

  • i still don't get what to put in for the "fttp://"

    does putting in the IP number works??

    I NEED HELP!!!

  • good stuff, Jason!

  • i paid for a domain host, can i just do that too? or do i really need a web host first?

  • yo it does not work at all

    i got the iweb 09

  • It does work. See:

    To publish a website to a folder, select the site you want to publish by clicking its name in the sidebar on the left of the iWeb window.

    In the Site Publishing Settings window appears, choose Local Folder from the Publish to pop-up menu.

    Hope this helps.
