File names in Mobileme Gallery

How do I get the file names of my images to show in MobileMe gallery ?
I now get the file name with the #20 wherever there is a space in my original file name.
I'm using file referenced on a HD.

My mistake
I had forgotten that it's just what Aperture does for some
unreasonable reason !
It puts 20 if there's space ? !

  • Photo names in MobileMe Gallery?

    Is there a way to make Aperture use the photo's caption field as the title for the photo in the mobileme gallery?
    There's the checkbox to tell it to use the version name or not which doesn't seem very useful to me.
    Should I just copy and paste from caption to version name?

  • Using captions (or, hiding file names) for Web Gallery with Aperture 2.0

    Is there a way to add captions to pictures displayed using the Aperture 2.0 web gallery without changing the actual file name? I'd like to keep the file name but add a caption to each photo if possible.
    Thanks

    Hi John
    I'm not making extra versions for this, just using the version name as the name in the web gallery. If you are not already using the version name then it lends itself to web gallery naming nicely. If you are using version names already, perhaps reconsider how necessary this is to you as you are tying up this other potential use.
    My file names all contain a date and index number but I try and use more 'user friendly' version names if part of my final output will be for web galleries. This is good for clients as they don't have complicated names to order, but it's also a cinch to find the files using the search bar in Aperture.
    Hope this helps

  • File name font (web gallery output)

    I am using CS4 with adobe bridge.  I have created some web galleries and have selected the option to show the file name.  This shows up just below the picture in the gallery.  The problem is the font is too light to show up against my chosen background font.  I am wondering how to change the font color of this file name for the output web gallery.  If anyone knows how to do this, I would greatly appreciate it!!!  Thanks!

    Hi,
    You can change the font colour in the Output Panel, under Color Palette (the order it appears and the options it shows depends on the template you are using). Simply double click the colour swatch sqaure to open up the colour picker and choose a new colour.
    See attached screenshot if you are unsure where to look..

  • Automating creation of MobileMe Gallery from audio files in iTunes

    Hi
    I am wanting to create a MobileMe Gallery of a few songs in my iTunes library. The only option to do this is to wrap MP3 files in a .mov container as MobileMe gallery doesn't support audio files. I have worked out all the necessary steps to do this and would now like to automate the process. Here is the sequence I follow manually:
    1. Select tracks in iTunes
    2. Convert these Apple Lossless files to MP3
    3. Add MP3 files to playlist
    4. For each track in playlist:
    5. Convert album image (.jpg) in album folder to max 640 width (so movies will play on iPhone)
    6. Open resulting image in Quicktime Pro
    7. Open Audio File in Quicktime Pro
    8. Copy Image and Paste into Audio File in Quicktime Pro
    9. Share File to Email using Quicktime Pro (this is the best way I've found of creating a small .mov file which just creates a container the same size as the image file and the audio file - presumably there's a way of exporting in the same way)
    10. Drag .mov file created from Email created to MobileMe Gallery in iPhoto.
    11. Repeat for each track
    So I am looking for a way of automating this as much as possible, and wondering if applescript or automator would be the best way to go.
    Ideally I would also like the script/automation to be able to create a .mov file slideshow of all images in the album folder (sometimes there is more than one image there), dividing the number of images by the length of the track (perhaps using the 'Add to selection and scale' feature in Quicktime Pro).
    Finally one issue I am experiencing - converting the image file to max width 640 does allow the movie file to be played in the MobileMe Gallery from an iPhone, but the file that opens in the Movie Player on the iPhone doesn't show the image(s) in the .mov file, it just plays the audio. I wonder why this is happening?
    Any advice on any of this would be much appreciated!
    Thanks

  • When importing photos with iBooks Gallery widget, is anyone aware of a technique for simultaneously importing the photo's description (or jpeg file name) and writing it into the iBook Author caption field for the imported photo?

    When importing photos with the iBooks Author Gallery widget, is anyone aware of a technique for simultaneously importing the photo's description (or jpeg file name) and writing it into the iBook Author caption field for the corresponding imported photo? I have 4,800 stills to import and can't imagine it's necessary to copy and paste the description for each.

    As always, feel free to use the 'Provide iBooks Author Feedback' menu item for features you'd like added in the future, etc.

  • How do I create an Lightroom HTML Gallery and preserve the - in the file name?

    How do I create an Lightroom HTML Gallery and preserve the - in the file name?
    The hyphen (-) is more search engine friendly, so I label all my photos using hyphens (-) to separate the keywords in the file name
    Here's a sample file name - it's for the "Guess Where Berkeley" flickr site
    guess-where-berkeley-serkes-xx-s-curve.jpg
    I created a Lightroom HTML Gallery and posted it to the following link.
    http://www.berkeleyhomes.com/tests/lightroom/lightroom-test-1/
    Though it looksl like the HML gallery shows the original file name in the web page, it looks like Adobe Lightroom modified each photo's file name by changing the - (hyphen) to an underscore (_)
    Originally
    guess-where-berkeley-serkes-xx-s-curve.jpg
    After Adobe created the HTML photo gallery the name became
    guess_where_berkeley_serkes_xx_s_curve.jpg
    Is there any way to preserve the – rather than the _ character
    Thank you!
    Ira Serkes

    InDesign's interactive PDF support is a small subset of what you can do in Acrobat Profesional.
    I think you probably want to create a button (or change an existing button) in Acrobat Pro that causes Acrobat to close the document -- that should be analagous to "exitting the CD." I assume your autorun file is opening the PDF in Adobe Reader? You have not included it and are not specific, so it is tough to say.
    I believe in Acrobat Javascript you can close the document with this.closeDoc(). You'll probaly need to ask on the Acrobat forums (possiby Acrobat Scripting) for more detail.

  • FCP to MobileMe Gallery: to save time, want ONLY medium file. How?!?

    Hi there,
    It takes such a long time to publish a finished project from FCP to my MobileMe Gallery. But that's partly because the default mode publishes a large, a medium and a small file. I just need the medium size on my Gallery. But I see no way of configuring Share this way.
    Can anyone advise please?
    thanks, Malcolm

    Hi -
    The "Share" function was clearly added for convenience, and varying from the preset features, while certainly not difficult, is not as . . . convenient.
    To post only the medium size version only to your mobile me account:
    1) With your finished sequence selected go File>Share
    2) In the Share window that opens, select "Other" from the choice of delivery formats
    3) In the window that opens, select the folder Apple Devices, then put a check mark next to H.264 for iPod and iPhone 640x480
    4) Click OK
    5)With "Desktop" selected as destination, click on export
    6) Your movie will be compressed and placed on your desktop
    7) You may want to rename your movie at this time.
    8) Open your browser and log on to your mobile me account via www.me.com
    9) Select your galleries (the sunflower button)
    10) At the lower left corner is a + sign you can use to add a new gallery
    11) Click the upload button, and use the window that opens to navigate to your movie, and click select.
    12) Your movie will be uploaded
    13) Click on the url in the gray bar a the upper top left and you will be taken to your gallery where you can use tell a friend, etc.
    Hope this helps.

  • No File name or number after uploading to MobileMe

    After upgrading to patch Nov 4 with iphoto 11. The number or file name will not show up after uploading to MobileMe for sharing to others.

    Same thing here. Can't get iPhoto 11 to display filenames in MobileMe galleries. I've already filed 2 bug reports from 2 different Macs with the same issue. I recommend you do the same. Just go to the 'iPhoto' menu, then select 'Provide iPhoto Feedback.'

  • Image Gallery: Show File Name

    I am a yearbook adviser and am making an iPad edition of our yearbook.
    Am hoping there might be a way to have images in the gallery show the filename of each image, for example, by default in the caption or title. Say I have a senior portrait image. If I named the image John_Smith.jpg, then the caption or title would read John_Smith.jpg. 
    Probably not possible, but thought I'd ask.

    I think you'll find it not an option w/iBA, sorry.
    There are graphics programs that will tattoo your images with the file name, I think, if that's enough for your needs. A Keynote slideshow may help with thumbnails...

  • Web gallery download file name

    I noticed when I renumber photos in Aperture and upload them to a web gallery the number stays the same until I download the photo. When the photo is downloaded the name reverts to the original file name. Since these are clients I don't want them to see the original file names but rather the number I assigned in Aperture.
    I guess the other question could simply be: How do I permanently change the photo name after I import it into Aperture?
    Thanks,
    Jeffrey

    I have not used the mobile me service so not to sure of how the gallery service handles files, someone else on this forum may, it would also be worth checking out the mobile me gallery forums

    there may be something there that helps, let us know.

  • Any way to keep original file name as image name for web gallery?

    Hi,
    I wonder if there is any way to keep the original file name as image name for a web gallery (instead of "picture-1.jpg)
    People often send us the thumbnails or the image from the web and we have to search forever to find the image in AP - if we could keep our original filename then this would be a second away.
    Hope somebody has an idea
    thanks

    Hi William,
    I finally had time to play - unfortunately it does
    not work the way you described above.
    I´m just exporting a set of images using the "Stock
    Black" Theme - marked name only - batched the
    filename to masterfile - but the actual picture names
    are still "picture-1.jpg" - "picture-2.jpg".
    did I miss anything? thanks
    I see what you want, you don't care about the screen name so much but want the generated file names to be the same as the version names. From earlier messages though I am not quite sure why this is a problem, since you said other people were picking the images they wanted - say Image1 and 23 and 8. That to me says those people are going through the directory using Finder or Explorer, not using the HTML.
    Is it the case you are giving people web galleries on CD? If so, then perhaps also export a "browse" directory with exported images using the version names, so that people can use the right name.
    Or perhaps it's the case that people are downloading the images from the web, and then using the downloaded file names to send you requests. I'm not sure how to fix this yet and do not know if 1.1 offers something for this.

  • Web Gallery - need file name on thumbnail and large image

    I think I have tried all the CS3 templates, but haven't found what our client is requesting. Is there a template that shows the file name on both the thumbnail and large image, and will make large images of 600-800 pixels (long dimension)?
    Thanks in advance,
    Dan Clark

    Thanks for your reply Nini. Yes, I had gone through all the presets and options. Was hoping I might have missed something, or that someone knew a trick/workaround. We've been using Table-Minimal for years, which is my overall favorite. I like to ability to make a large image, but it can't do what the client is requesting. They've made a list of selects from some very large galleries (200-300 shots each), and now want to jump directly to the shots they've previously chosen, in order to show their coworkers. I've also considered "Add Numeric Links", but I find that either confuses people, or they give me that number, instead of the file name/number, which makes a lot of extra work for us.

  • No captions in MobileMe gallery?

    Is there no way to publish a MobileMe gallery with pics that have captions underneath them? I wrote the captions in the info pane of each pic in iPhoto, but when I published, the captions were not there. I hope I'm missing something, because not being able to post captions is ridiculous.

    MM:
    There is a way to do what you want. It involves running an Applescript that replaces the photo's title with the captions before you publish. You can then revert the titles back to the file names with the Photos->Batch Change->Title to File Name menu option.
    The Applescript can be found here (be sure to read the comments to the post to catch the error in the script): An AppleScript to copy iPhoto Description to Name
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Iphoto crashes when settings clicked in mobileme gallery

    On both of my computers, an Air and a Pro with Leopard, when the settings "gear" icon is pressed in a Mobileme Gallery, iphoto freezes and must be force quit. The browser version of the gallery can be accessed but settings such as allowing downloads, uploads or changing passwords is not accessible.

    Start with the troubleshooting basics:
    1. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    2. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
    3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.
