How to publish iphoto slideshows to iweb?I

I want to publish slidshows that I made in iphoto on my website. Each time I try to load the pages, they appear to load, then I get a message saying that "work will continue for several minutes behind the scenes . . . leave this application open." After a long while, I receive a message saying my pages didn't load . . . "check your internet connection."
How do I get the slideshows onto my webpage with a reduced file size. I suspect that the slideshow files are too big. I see the slideshow folders in my movie/media list as .mov files, but I can't open the slideshow folders in imovie to reduce the file size in quicktime. When I try to click an drag them off the desktop or try to export them from iphoto to imovie to work with the file size, the folders just bounce right back.
What am I doing wrong??
Also, I have a .com hosted with another host for my photography business. How do I link the slideshows to that website. I want to use the slideshows as a way to do a quick "proof session" with my clients.
Thanks for the advice!

iPhoto gives you three size options to export your slideshow as a QuickTime file.
The smallest is not very good but gives the quickest download time. Just because iWeb tells you a movie is too big doesn't mean you have to listen!
Its a trade off between quality and download time.
.Mac galleries, iWeb galleries and Photo pages all go to thumbnails and the viewer has to start the slideshow.
You are going about things the right way to get a slideshow only. Once you have loaded it onto the iWeb page you can go to the "QuickTime" inspector and select "autoplay" etc. and also drag the placeholder to whatever size you want.

How to publish PSE slideshow to the web

I can't seem to figure how to publish the slideshow I created in PSE 7; I have a website, and want to post the show on it. Are my only options to save it as a .wmv file or a .pdf?? I can get the .pdf to publish, but when I try to publish the .wmv to my site, all that pops up is the black Media Viewer box and an error message that says the file cannot be found.
Any idea what I may be doing wrong?

The problem is that you are using formats that are not suitable. For some people, a pdf is always going to show as just a download (and that will put plenty of stress on your bandwidth if lots of friends are downloading those slideshows). The WMV file is also not quite the way to do it. The better solution is to create a so-called online album, which is really a flash slideshow, and upload that to the server of your choice.

Publish iDVD Slideshow on iWeb

I have created a slideshow with music in iDVD and burned several DVDs. I would like to publish the content to iWEB in my .Mac account but have not been able to figure out how to do it.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,

There is no easy way to use the DVD slideshow created by iDVD.
Why not just create the slideshow in iWeb. Try the iWeb forum at http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=188 if you need help.

How to publish Aperture projects to iWeb

iPhoto has a button that enable one to publish photos directly from iPhoto into iWeb. I can not find such a button since I moved up to Aperture. Am I missing it? Or, I may be going about it the wrong way. I currently use MobileMe to host a family photo web site published by iWeb, and linked to several dozen MM photo galleries. When MM dies next year I would like to keep all of this stuff together in the easiest way possible. I know that I will need to use another web hosting service to host my iWeb published site. But, I need to get my current MM photo galleries, all published via Aperture, "into" iWeb, not simply linked to it. One way, if I were still using iPhoto, would be to use the iWeb button and republish all of the galleries directly into iWeb. Can I do this from Aperture? thank you!

I don't have hands-on experience with this aspect of Aperture, but it seems that Chapter 24 covers the Creation of Webpages. It appears it is not using iWeb.

How do I get my iPhoto slideshow into iWeb

I made a slideshow in iPhoto, set to music, and I want to get it into iWeb. I see options in iPhoto "help" for exporting photos and photo albums, but not for exporting slideshows, unless I want to export to iDVD. Is this a necessary intermediate step? Thanks!

Hi CrannieM,
Select the slideshow in the source column and go to File>export
choose the size...smallest is the best for the web.
Caveats to this:
if the slideshow contains a lot of photos and transitions and music it will be a large size.
if you used songs purchased from the ITMS others will be asked for your password in order to hear the music. (I think you will even get a message on exporting now that the music will not be heard by others or something to that extent. In order to use purchased music you have to do some work arounds first.
Once you get your Quicktime movie, drag it into the movie template in iWeb.

How to edit iPhoto slideshow?

In iPhoto '11 version 9.2.1 how can I add additional text slides to the photos after a slide show has been set up with some text slides initially entered? I am using the Places theme, and when I select the thumbnails at the top the Text Slide buttom at the bottom of the window is not active.

Do you have a library on both machines?
IF not, then simply copy the iPhoto Library Folder from one machine to the other.
If yes, then you'll have to merge the two libraries, and for that you'll need iPhoto Library Manager, a shareware. It's the only way of doing a merge. You can download it from here:
http://homepage.mac.com/bwebster/iphotolibrarymanager.html
You may need to change your Slideshow to an album first, then back to a Slideshow at the other machine. But give it a try.

How to export iPhoto slideshow to quicktime and then view on video iPod?

How do you export a slideshow to a Quicktime movie (from iPhoto) so that the resulting Quicktime movie is then viewable on an iPod?
I've exported slideshows (with transitions, specified Ken Burns effects, music, etc.) to Quicktime movies to try to view these on my iPod. I don't want to view my photo albums since they don't have of the effects that the slideshow has. There is an option to save the slideshow in a small file size that is presumably viewable on an ipod. About 80% of the time, however, the Quicktime movies are then NOT viewable on my iPod. My iPod just freezes when I try to start the movie.
Here are the steps I use to export
1. From iPHoto Select the slideshow / File / Export / select small movie
2. From iTunes / File / Import / select the Quicktime movie that was created from the slideshow
Background info
1. Apple G5 purchased in 2003, 2 CPUs, CPU Speed 2 GHz. Memory 2GB. Bus Speed 1 GHZ. CPU TYpe PowerPC 970 (2.2)
2. iPhoto '08 version 7.1.1 (354)
3. Video iPod purchased in May 2006. (60 GB). Uses iPod software version 1.2.3 (most current version for this iPod)
4. Quicktime Player version 7.3.0 Player Version 7.3 (7.3)
I've tried synchronizing my iTunes with the Quicktime movie to a new iPod and that doesn't work either. I've tried many different approaches but none of these ever work. I'd really appreciate any thoughts or ideas you might have. Thank you!

You probably will need a 3rd party application to convert the . mov QT file that iPhoto creates into a format for the iPod. Some are VisualHub, ViddyUp, and iSquint. You can find them at VersionTracker.com.

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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), 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 08 libraries and Leopard. 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.

How to publish a BOOK from iWeb blog

During 2011 I kept a Blog in iWeb on me.com when my little 7 year old daughter was suffering from liver cancer. the Blog was read and commented by many people. I have been her Living Donor for the liver, and so far she is a "survivor" with sparks in her eys that represent "life".
We have had a lot of support from people that are close to us and I want to thank them all by "publishing" a book from the blog. I kept it on my Macbook wich also still has iWeb on it. I a 'just a user' and not a freak, so I do not have a clue if this is possible to do or just Wishfull thinking. I presume you can never get back to me.com, so the ' web counter' as well as 'feed back' might have been lost, but I sure want to publish this blog in a book. It would be a great gift to thos who supported us and other people that go through this as well, as well as for my little girl Joy, so when she is older she knows what she has been going throug. Is there anyone that could support in the steps I need to undertake to get this done?

To give you an idea what is possible, I used Chrome on my iPad and printed a webpage as pdf to Google Drive with Google Cloudprinter.
This is the webpage :
http://www.wyodor.net/mfi/cultureclub/Blog/Blog.html
This is the result :

Nice isn't it, all these technologies at your fingertips? And my fingertips were actually the only moving parts :)

How to embed iPhoto slideshow in WordPress?

My wife is asking me.

Tell her to export the slideshow from iPhoto. That will make a QuickTime movie of the slideshow. Once it's exported she'll need to upload it to her site. From there she'll need to contact Wordpress support for specific details on embedding.

How to customize iPhoto slideshow themes?

You can select between black and white on the Sliding Panels theme, but that's about it.

How to set iPhoto/slideshow to 25fps?

is there any 'dirty hack' to set the exported framerate of an iP slideshow to 25fps?
I'm here in PAL land, a 30fps is of less use..
maybe manipulating the plist +et al+ ...??

Karsten:
One workaround would be to export the resulting iPhoto QT slideshow out of QT Player (Pro might be required) to DV-PAL where you can change the fps to 25. However it took a 12 MB QT movie I made in iPhoto and created a 247MB PAl movie. The original was 480 x 360 and the only PAL option is 768 x 576. However if the user is coming from a 640 x 480 iPhoto QT file the jump in file size probably won't be as dramatic.

How to publish custom web site with own domain name?

Hey out there. I wonder if anyone can give me any tips on how to publish a web site with my own domain name.
I have a web site I'm building and I want to purchase a domain name and then publish the site using that domain name.
I know how to buy a domain name. I have a .mac account so I'm hoping that .mac can host the site. What I don't quite understand how to do is get .mac to host the site using that domain name. I looked through Apple Support but couldn't find what I was looking for. Just wondering if anyone has been in this situation. Thanks in advance.

Dave ~ Welcome to the discussions. .Mac was re-branded as MobileMe last July. If you're not building your site with iWeb, it's considered to be a "custom" website. These Apple docs may help:
MobileMe: How to publish a custom website
iWeb ’08: Using your own domain name
...Use this search page to find such documents:
http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=search
Note that you don't need to have iLife '08 to be able to direct your domain name to your custom website published to MobileMe. As someone wrote on another thread:
"My personal domain is linked to my MM but i don't even have ilife on my mac. When you go to the options in MM to link your personal domain to your MM it provides directions that will guide you with setting up your godaddy settings."
...Where "MM" is MobileMe here:
http://me.com/account
...+Personal Domain+ tab, and "godaddy" is wherever your domain name is registered.

Iphoto slideshow no music possible ...

in iPhoto I can only use the tidbits of music that was delivered with iPhoto but not o n e of my own songs or playlists. They show up but don't play.
I have already played around with div. aple.com.playlists but without success. I hve deleted iPhoto and loaded it again from the store, the same situation as before.
Please give me an advice how to get iPhoto-slideshows w i t h music.
Thank You
Roland from Austria

Roland and topcop1,
I am experiencing the same problem... All the iPhoto Slideshow menu items appear to be working as they should, and I'm able to select iTunes songs, but they simply do not play in the slideshow... Have the same problem on two different computers...
The music does, however, play if I open the iPhoto Library in Aperture, and play the slideshow from Aperture.
I'll continue to investigate...will probably send feedback to Apple...
Bob
