I made a website for a friend using iWeb and now she want me to move it to her computer but I dont know how to do it. Any ideas?
 
In the user's library, in the Application Support folder, open the iWeb folder, and the file named "Domain" is the one you want.

EDIT: nevermind
 
Copy the file ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain to the same folder on the other machine.

:confused: I can only get as far as Application Support there is no file for iWeb or Domain...... I have an iWeb site.... what;s up with this???
I would like my son to be able to help my out with my website. He is a pro + I am a beginner..... We are both using Leopard - but he is living in NZ for a while..... He can access my screen, but not my website to be able to help me with it
 
Make sure you are looking at the Library folder inside your user folder, not the library folder directly from the root of your hard drive.
 
A perfect way of doing it is to use Backup_3.1.2.dmg for leopard just select to do a custom save for iWeb save it to a folder of your choice then just re-run Backup on the other machine & select restore. Also note that if they already have an existing site then when you restore it make sure to only restore new files that way the previous sites are not lost. Now if they don't have any iWeb sites just do the normal restore and all will be put back in Place as it was on your machine.

Moving iWeb from one mac to another

Copying the iweb folder under the path listed above from my imac to my mbp worked like a champ. thank you.
 
can you help please

Make sure you are looking at the Library folder inside your user folder, not the library folder directly from the root of your hard drive.

Ok I have my domain folder which retrieved form a backup. i have my site file. And have new sites on i web which I do not want ti interfere with. So how do i get my older site folder and the domain file to launch on i web alongside the existing ones


cheers
