Lost my Web Gallery

Sometime after the last upgrade of QT and loading the latest Flash Player I seem to have lost the ability to load my web gallery pages in Safari.
They load in Firefox.
Anyone have an idea what might have happened?
OS 10.4.11
PowerBook 1.25 GHz G4

I am embarrassed.
I figured out the problem.
Simple >> I emptied the Cache on Safari.

Web Gallery Captions get lost

Love web gallery - spend time typing in all the captions to inform family and friends, wait for the upload, watch all the "pending" signs disappear, and then see the captions disappear once it's on the Gallery site.
Any ideas?
What am I doing wrong?
Do I need to speak to my machine nicely?
Please help - thanks.
Julian

Julian:
Others have had that problem also. A work around is to use this script to write the comments to the Title. The title is displayed in the web galleries. When you want the file names back just use the "Photos->Batch Change->Title to File Name" menu option.
NOTE: Before compiling the script in Script Editor remove the one occurrence of the character Å in the script.

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.

Issue Updating Photo Names in Web Gallery

There is a sync issue with Web Galleries when the photo name is updated in iPhoto while another update is occurring simultaneously. The changes made in iPhoto are lost.
The 7.0.2 Update does not fix this issue.
It seems there should be the option to "update now" and make the web gallery look just like the iPhoto version.
Anyone else have this issue?

pschlampp:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. The syncing works correctly for me. Try clearing out the iPhoto Cache folders that are in your User/Library/Caches folder and delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist that's in the User/Library/Preferences folder. See if that will let you update titles as intended.

Iphoto 6 and web gallery question

I'm a newbie, so please excuse me if this sounds stupid. I have iphoto 6 and have successfully made photo pages, but I can't figure out how to start a web gallery. (I want other people to be able to upload their photos.) I've tried looking at tutorials & stuff but they all have to do with iphoto '08. Am I just blind? I haven't subscribed yet to .mac, I'm still in the trial, does that make a difference? I'd appreciate any help,

I was referring to the customer reviews of ilife '08 on the Apple website. You're right though, most of the negativity was regarding iMovie 7, and the majority of the iPhoto complaints were about their current published photo pages being "all messed up". That doesn't bother me so much because I want to start over with a new web gallery anyway. Also, a guy I talked to said that he was having trouble with iPhoto 7 and his photoshop work. (Like I said, I'm new to this, so my feeble brain lost the exact terminology he used.) I think I will trust what you say though and go ahead and buy it just because it looks so **** pretty. Thank you for your help!

Broken character encoding in Web Gallery / Journal

Hi,
Is there another place to submit bugs to Apple than posting here?
I noticed that the web gallery and journals are exported with HTML indicating iso-8859-1 encoding, but the characters are actually encoded with "MacRoman" (which isn't supported in most browsers and doesn't have a standard encoding name).
I put an example here:
http://tmp.askask.com/2005/12/aperture_bug/
(See the ø in my name be messed up on the bottom line).
Speaking of character sets; it really should export UTF-8 rather than iso-8859-1. (But anything else than MacRoman would be an improvement!)
- ask
Quad PowerMac Mac OS X (10.4.3)

After i read elsewhere in this forum that you can "hack" the HTML Templates I thought I give it a try and change the encoding settings.
So I went to Apperture.app/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/WebThemes/ and went into the Directory of the Theme I used, Pictures. I opened detail.html, gallery.html, journal-gallery.html and journal.html with BBEdit (I think TextEdit is just fine, too) and changed the charset to macintosh as this seems to be the official name of the MacRoman encoding as stated here: http://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets
I saved everything (you might make a backup of the original files first) and opened Aperture, exported my Web-Journal to a shared folder with my wife's PC and made some tests.
The encoding was recognized perfectly and automatically by Firefox (PC, 1.0.7), InternetExplorer (PC, 6.0) and of course Safari and Firefox on the Mac.
So it seems I can work around my second "favorite" bug in Aperture...
(My "favorite" is that I lost some projects when naming them with äöü's, it's soooo good to have a backup at hand)

Syncing Web Gallery album

Prior to upgrading to iPhone 2.0 and iTunes 7.7, I could select a Web Gallery to sync to iPhone from within iTunes. Now my Galleries don't show up for me to select and sync.
My only guess is that they just want you to go directly to the Web Gallery using your browser. Given that I have a 1st gen, some of my larger Galleries take a long time to load when I'm on the cell network. Because of this I like to have my Galleries cached on my iPhone.
My only work-around is to create a standard album and manually transfer pics to both albums when I want to add photos. That will work, but I'm kind of bummed that they changed the way this works.
Cheers!

I absolutely second that!
I filter my key photos to Web Galleries, available to friends and family across the globe. So far I have synced the same selections of photos over to my iPhone, so that I can show these when offline, for example when overseas, in planes etc.
Is this really a lost functionality?? If so, it is time to file a functionality request with Apple!

Can't Download from Web Gallery

I have a small picture album with some pictures of my newborn daughter. I have the permissions set to allow everyone to view, and that people can download images.
However, when you go to the page, you can click the download gallery button, but the download icon on individual images is greyed out and doesn't function. Also, there is no way to view the full size image and manually save it that way.
Does anyone else have this issue, or have a workaround?
In case you want to see, my gallery is http://gallery.mac.com/djfriar. There is only one album up there.

I just created a new Web Gallery and in the iDisk folder it created 2 files named large (original resolution but compressed further JPG) and web. This was before I'd opened the gallery. After opening the gallery other JPGs of intermediate size for thumbnails and reflections appearaed, so it looks as though the images for these galleries may be rendered on the fly from an Apple server the first time they are viewed.
Sounds has though Tom had reinstalled everything from scratch though, so wondering if somehow iDisk has lost these 'original' files named large.

How to recover web gallery password?

I found how. Cheers.

Web gallery module - saved galleries disappear

LR 4.2, Windows 7 x64, i7, 16GB RAM
In the Library, I create a Collection. In the Web module, I create a web gallery with the Collection. When all the parameters are set, I click "Create Saved Web Gallery" (upper right corner). I give the web gallery a unique name and save it. The web gallery appears in the list of Collections, including the little 3x3-grid icon to the left of the name. When I hover over the name, the little right-arrow appears to the right of the gallery name and if I click the arrow, LR switches to the Web module and displays the gallery for that collection. This is how it should work.
Here's the problem: After opening and closing LR several times after creating the web gallery, I have noticed in the list of Collections that the web gallery icon (3x3-grid) has changed into the regular Collection icon and the little right-arrow is gone. The unique name I gave the web gallery is still there. This has happened with several saved web galleries, although not all web galleries. I am baffled by why it is happening intermittently.
Has anyone else noticed this problem? A solution?
Thanks for any help.
John

FOLLOW-UP:
In trying to figure this out, I noticed that if I am in the Library and click on one of these web galleries that "lost" its 3x3-grid icon and the right-arrow, and then right-click on the gallery name, the last item in the context menu reads "Open Old Contextual Web Gallery." If I select that, LR goes to the Web module and displays the gallery. The option to "Create Saved Web Gallery" is at the top-right of the preview window. If I click, name and save, then another gallery is correctly saved in the list of Collections, along with the 3x3-grid icon and right-arrow. Since I just discovered this, I don't know if this newly saved gallery will remain.
Odd behavior.
Note: I regularly Test Integrity and Optimize my catalog on exiting LR.

IPhoto '08: Events, (Smart) Albums, Web Gallery & Slideshows ???

I recently upgraded to iPhoto '08 and I am confused.
I must admit I used iPhoto before to look at my pictures but I never bothered with any albums or slideshows or whatever, but now with more and more pictures I need to organize.
So this new iPhoto comes with all sorts of way to organize such as Events, (Smart) Albums, Web Galleries & Slideshows. Quiet frankly I am LOST as to what to use when or for what ???
Okay I can get Web Galleries is for posting on the .mac as a gallery. Why did they do this again if you iWeb that creates photo pages???? Why is this not integrated in iWeb????
Now moving on. What's the difference between Events, (Smart Albums) and Slideshows. They seem to be ways to organize your photos. BUT why have THREE of them? When to use which one?
Any help or comment appreciated as I am confused ....

Events, Smart Albums, Albums and slideshows are different. Here is a short explanation of each:
Events= Every time you import photos from your camera or via drag & drop a new Event is created. This is the basic (automatic) way that iPhoto organizes your photos. Events are date based and can be split or merged based on your preferences. For example, you go to a birthday party and take a few photos, a few days later you go to a picnic and take a few photos. When you import the images, iPhoto will split the pictures into two distinct events. (Check The iPhoto Preferences/Events for some options).
Albums= These are containers that you create to easily group photos in any way you prefer (ex. Combine photos from a couple of holiday parties into one album). You can drag and drop photos in Albums. When you delete a photo in an Album it does not get deleted from the main library. Albums contain links to the photos, not the actual photos. You can manually re-order the photos in an Album. It is always a good idea to create an Album first, edit and re-order your photos there and then create a slideshow, book or web gallery from the Album.
Smart Albums= These are Albums you create that have specific rules, they automatically get updated every time a photo meets the specific set of rules. Smart Albums (SA) can have one or more rules. ex. You have 2 different cameras and you automatically want to see the photos captured by each camera. You create 2 Smart Albums that contain the Rule = Camera Model > is > Nikon D40 (or whatever). Next time you import photos from that camera, the SA will show these photos automatically. (Note: These are links, but if you delete an image, unless you delete it permanently it will re-appear in the SA, as long as it still has the required value of the SA. You can sort by Keyword, Ratings etc using Smart Albums, and you can have multiple sort rules, like Keyword = Birthday and Rating is 5 stars.
Slideshows= iPhoto has 2 types of slideshows available. The first is the "quick" slideshow. You can select any Album or Smart Album click on the Play button, set the transition select the music and you are ready to go. The 2nd type, the Cinematic Slideshow, are albums created specifically as Slideshows. They contain photos you selected and you want to see on your screen in a slideshow presentation. You can set specific transitions between slides, set individual slide times, select music and specify where the Ken Burns effect will start in a slide and where it will end. They are more elaborate than the Quick slideshows.
Web Galleries = are a quick way to share photos with friends, you just select the Photos and click on the Web Gallery button. You set some basic options and publish. Visitors get to see the photos in 3-4 different views including a slideshow, but you can also allow the viewers to add photos to your web gallery. Every time you add a new photo to a web gallery album in iPhoto, it will update the web site when you click the little publish icon next to the name. You can also set tan option to make this happen at specific intervals. (Check the iPhoto Preferences/Web Gallery).
I hope this answered some of your questions. Good luck.

Aperture 2, Stacks and Web Gallery

I have had so many issues with this lately. I shot photos today, picked my favorites and created a web gallery. I then ordered my 40 photos in the web gallery in a very specific order to tell a story.
1st I noticed that the order sorted some how and I lost my custom sort. So I reordered it into a specific order.
Then I was working with stacks. I wanted to organize the rest of the photos in the project to find others that I missed before and to promote images to find better picks.
Then I noticed the Web Gallery would then automatically add all images in the stack next to the single photo in the Web Gallery.
2nd. My web gallery has hundreds of photos, mostly ones that I did not want displayed. Also my custom order was lost and I once again had to try to reorganize.
To make what could be a longer story short, I had to break all the stacks that I spent time on in order to remove the unwanted photos from the web gallery.
Are we forced to make a choice between using Stacks and Web Galleries? Can they NEVER be used together?

After much frustration and time looking at this issue, and reading this topic in forums, discussions and the Aperture User Manual (pg. 562 - 567) - for which there is no clear explanation of this - You can only use the stack pick in the Web Gallery.
Exactly!
Which means : If you want maximum flexibility in creating Web Galleries, DO NOT use stacks.
I suppose this depends on what you are using stacks for. If you are grouping images in stacks that you want to use, you can certainly do that, but that will be problematic in Aperture in places other than gallery, because that is simply not what stacks are designed to do. If you have several shots so similar you will only use one, but don't want to throw the rest away (you might change your mind later) put them in a stack. Makes it easy to compare and "pick" which one to output. If you have a number of photos that are roughly similar, but you will be using more than one - you can initially stack them, but will probably be better off splitting the stack later. Say I am shooting sports and get a high-speed sequence of a breakaway. I could put the whole sequence in a stack initially, but some of those images are different enough that I might want to publish two or three (out of, say, 15 shots). I might get them all in one stack through auto stack, or even manually stack them initially, but I will probably set one pick and extract a few others. The alternates will be there in case I find a use for them later. Same thing with portraiture. When shooting portraits, I can get a lot of almost identical images - with small nuances in facial expression being the only difference. Another kind of stacking I often do is when I create new versions from the master and make color and exposure adjustments.
What happens to the thousands of stacks that people have already created in Aperture and would like to simply get photographs online? You must rework your entire organization (if you use stacks) to accommodate this inconsistency.
I think Aperture is actually pretty consistent regarding stacks and alternates. Alternates are ignored if you try to create a web journal, web gallery, web page, or a book. I see no problem getting them online - the picks will display, extract alternates if you want them to display also.
And to further complicate a situation, when you select one photograph in a stack, and create a 'Web Gallery', once created, every photograph in that stack is put into the 'Web Gallery'
In other words, there is no 'Ignore Stack Groupings' option in Web Galleries and since Picks can be anywhere in the stack - this creates an organizational nightmare.
Yes, if you try to drag a single image to another project or album, the rest of the stack comes along for the ride. I know this bugs you, but I actually like the way it works. Where you see this as inconsistent - I see it being very consistent. If I create a stack - that stack is identical in all locations. I can change the pick for different albums, but if i alter a stack in any other way - it is changed everywhere. This doesn't take up an real space on your computer - it is all just referencing back to the master images anyway. If seeing all those alternates in the stack bother you, just close the stack By the way, your pick cannot be "anywhere in a stack" - the pick is always on top. Your "album pick" can be anywhere in a stack, but close the stack and the album pick is what you will see.
Maybe you would do better using albums for the kind of organization you are doing - it sounds to me like you are using stacks kind of like albums anyway. Just select a stack and "create album from selection." Then you can unstack your stacks and work with albums instead. Then when you drag an image to a web gallery you won't get alternates.
But leave the stacks the way they are please - I love them just the way they are

How do I use Brige Web Gallery in a Flash website

How do you use the output of a Brige Web Gallery for use inside of a Flash Website?

Hi there -
I'd try posting your question over in the Flash general forum. You could also try the Flash site design forum. The folks over there will probably be able to help you solve your issue

Brigde CS5 in Windows 7 64bit - drops out photos in Web Gallery preview

Is there a limit to the number of photos that web gallery will display? I created a web gallery and then started over again as instructions I read stated that I should put the TITLE on each photo. Once I put the title in, out of 24 photos that use to display, only 20 now display.
Can someone explain why this is happening? I haven't even gotten to the point of trying to embed in my website yet. Perhaps Bridge isn't the best tool to use?
Thanks to anyone who can offer any insight as to why this is happening.
Daisey

And right you are! After posting this message I started reading through all the help files and finally did find the same answer. Now my problem is the linking as I have a very strange hosting set up. Two sites, same directory. So all my images have broken links. Something new to work out!
Cheers!

Bridge CS3 Workspace Adobe Lightroom Web Gallery Creator

A while back I was looking around for an easy way to create sharp looking image galleries with minimal work, and I came across a workspace plug in for Bridge Cs3. If I remember correctly, it was labeled Adobe Lightroom Web Gallery something or another. Anyway, I recently formatted my computer and reinstalled everything, but for the life of me I can find no trace of that handy workspace plug in. Does anyone know where I can find it? It had a bunch of customizable flash galleries as well as a customizable html gallery as well. Any help would be appreciated!

Do you mean AMG( Adobe Media Gallery)? You could download from LAB.
