Thanks, all, for responding so quickly.

I downloaded Cyberduck, but it would not open even though it was installed.
Not only that , but also I am expereiencing the very bad jetlag
and cannot think straight right now.

After I posted the above, I saw something on my desktop with Cyberduck. I clicked on it. It did something, and now the FTP client opened up correctly.

Now I have to figure out how to work this thing.

Thanks again, everyone.

After I struggled with Cyberduck, I noticed Safari on my desktop. It looks like Safari does only anonymous FTP, while I need to be able to do is to connect to my server to upload my corrected html files.

I was able to connect to the anonymous FTP server side of my site, but I have not figured out how to connect to the pub.html side. This requires the User ID and the password. I downloaded the Japanese version of Cyberduck. I was wondering whether I should have downloaded the full version.

Perhaps anyone else who might be able to help me uploading (or downloading) to the pub.html directory, please post a reply.

Thanks in advance.

If you have Dreamweaver software, it has FTP capabilities. You’ll still need User ID and password. But in anycase, your Server provider should be able to walk you through the steps to connect.

rbrowser is shareware, but can be used as a good ftp client for free. look here: http://www.rbrowser.com/

My choice is transmit but either will work well for you.

Thanks for your tips on how to connect using Safari. While I was able to connect, I could not upload the file to the server. I e-mailed my Web server for help.

Their FAQ and tutorials on FTP are assuming Windows, and not helpful to Mac users.

Since I have had issues of connecting to the control panel at my Web server, I think it would be best to get their opinions first before purchasing anything.z

Since this trip to Tokyo is partially a family visit, so I won`t be able to deal with this issue until I return from my visit of my father, more than one hour away, tomorrow.

Thanks to you all. It is great to have people chipping in from many corners of the world.

has a fre mode (FTP Only) and a paid mode with more features.. they make a version for Tiger and Panther. Easy to use, drag and drop, full featured for a free app..

I use it all the time..

Lunarpages` reply was to use the Terminal, a text-based ftp client. They also suggested to google
for gui FtP clients that everyone is suggesting to use.

In short I looked up the needed commands by googling and was able to upload the corrected 404.shtml successfully. I am going back to bed to get a little more sleep before I really get up at 6:30 am.

I have tried Dreamweaver once although it was a trial version and did not like it. I much prefer to know what is behind it, so I use the text editor to type in html codes.

In any case I have certainly appreciated all your suggestions coming from every where. This is a great community.

P.S. If you need any info from Tokyo, Japan, don`t hesitate to ask me. Hopefully I`m heading to Kyoto for an overnight and a few other spots on this trip.
