How do I backup iWeb?

mynameis · May 17, 2006

Well, I sold my iBook, so I need to do some backup. I don't know how to keep my iWeb sites in a format that I can edit them in iWeb on my new comp. Anyone?

Everything seems to be in the users/username/sites folder.

Not there for me. You sure you didn't publish to that folder?

strange as that is the only place the site shows up in spotlight.

Edit: See if this helps.

I didn't realize how nice Backup 3 was, I am just going to use it.

That URL is correct. It stores it all in that one file. I viewed the contents and it's all in there. I never really paid attention to where it saved it all till now.

Indeed it is, but with Backup, I am getting everything. It is a bit slow...

That's cool. I am glad though you asked as now we both know where it saves to. It might come in handy someday.

You getting a new Macbook? White or Black?

I didn't really like it too much in person, seemed kind of excessively bulky like the iBook, so I went with the MB Pro.
