Step 2. Create association of iWeb with SITES2 files
If, despite the installed application, the SITES2 file does not start in the iWeb application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the SITES2 file with the iWeb application.
Step 3. Update iWeb to the latest version
If, however, after binding iWeb with IWeb Site Design Project there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Apple, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SITES2 file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The SITES2 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the SITES2 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SITES2 or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected SITES2 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of SITES2 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair SITES2 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Apple help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file SITES2 except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the SITES2 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the SITES2 file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
