Photo RSS reader for PC's / AOL?

Can anyone suggest an RSS reader that will read photos from a photocast? My father uses AOL, but could work through IE if necessary.
Thanks,
Billl

Have her try Firefox. See my post here: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=4531492#4531492
You have to change the url a little according to the site I'm quoting.

Do you Twango?
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 written 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Rss reader for systray

    Started working on a little project. An rss reader that sits in the systray. Its pretty bare right now, but its downloading feeds and opens them in the browser when i click on them.
    http://i.imgur.com/ldvS3.jpg
    -- mod edit: read the Forum Etiquette and only post thumbnails http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/For … s_and_Code [jwr] --

    Fixed that bug, kind of, i'm not sure if it's the proper solution, but it seems to work. Relevant code:
    def build_submenu(self, feed):
    menu = Gtk.Menu()
    for i in feed.entries:
    menuitem = Gtk.MenuItem()
    menuitem.set_label(i.title)
    menuitem.connect("activate", self.construct_command(i.link))
    menu.append(menuitem)
    return menu
    def construct_command(self, link):
    def open_link(self):
    webbrowser.open(link)
    return open_link
    Lambda expression inside a loop seems to overwrite itself during every iteration, like here:
    l = []
    for i in range(10):
    l.append(id(lambda x: x*i))
    print(l)
    # OUT: [139721358186400, 139721358186400, 139721358186400, 139721358186400, 139721358186400, 139721358186400, 139721358186400, 139721358186400, 139721358186400, 139721358186400]
    print(l.count(l[0]))
    # OUT: 10
    As you can see, id of the lambda expression is the same in every iteration, despite being a different function (i is different in each lambda), so when the for loop finishes, you'll end up with only one callable object, that every menu item executes on activation.
    EDIT:
    After a bit of screwing around, i found that this also works:
    menuitem.link = i.link
    menuitem.connect("activate", lambda x: webbrowser.open(x.link))
    Instead of passing the arbitrary address to the lambda it just extracts link from the menu entry itself.

  • Tutorial to create a basic rss reader for my site?

    Can anyone point me to either a text or video tutorial, new to the whole iphone sdk business, trying to offer our readers an iphone rss application so they can get all of our stories right on one interface. Any direction would really help.
    Thank you

    Hmm. My apologies. Not sure as to what you have all tried, but I am guessing you have done a bit of research, which is good.
    I am not positive that there are really any excellent tutorials out there as of yet. Have you had a look at this one?

  • Mac RSS reader for iphone delivers incorrectly sorted posts

    The web page http://reader.mac.com/ is supposed to deliver RSS feeds to my iPhone.
    I create the XML feed by arranging a variety of posts for a given day. The posts are in a specific sequence, which is ignored by http://reader.mac.com/.
    The Problem: The software at http://reader.mac.com/ is re-arranging the posts in a different order from the sequential order that I've imposed. It seems to be looking at the creation date of the post rather than the creation date of the feed.
    This is a big problem for me. I can't trust that my feeds will look correct in the mac reader. Can I change the settings so that the posts are ordered correctly?

    It is a webapp.

  • Linking to a Specific Spry panel (modified for RSS Reader)

    Hi – I would like to implement the following tutorial however have it work for the Spry Framework RSS Reader: http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/spry_url_utils.php
    I understand the concept of this article and have been able to implement the solution up to step 4 however for my solution I am not working with tabbed panels or an accordion widget but the RSS Reader from the latest Spry Framework. I would like to have a specific feed and article selected on the page depending on what link the user has come from.
    So instead of working with the tabbed panel and accordion variables I would be using the variables:
    var dsCategories
    var dsFeeds
    var dsChannel
    var dsArticles
    I would like to know if anyone can assist me in modifying the solution to suit this scenario? or if it is even possible?
    Thanks.
    Michael.

    Hi Ben,
    Thanks for pointing me to this tutorial.
    To keep things easier for myself I have kept the variable name as row. I have added the following code to the head of my called page:
    On lines 9-10:
    <script type="text/javascript" src="js/SpryURLUtils.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript"> var params = Spry.Utils.getLocationParamsAsObject();</script>
    On lines 19-26:
    //define the data set
                var ds1 = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("data/LocalFeeds.xml", "feeds/feed");
                //get the url parameter for the row number
                var params = Spry.Utils.getLocationParamsAsObject();
                //set an observer so that when the data is loaded, we update the current row to the url param value
                ds1.addobserver({ onPostLoad: function(ds, type) {
                                                                                                                                ds1.setCurrentRow(params.row); }
    Currently my called page is still not loading in the wanted state with calling page passing the parameter row=2.
    I aren’t sure what I am still missing but think it is perhaps something to do with setting the spry:region and spry:repeat to equal ds1? But not sure where I should be placing this.
    Am I nearly there?

  • RSS/news reader for the N97 Mini?

    I use Google Reader a lot for keeping up with news and developments in my field. 
    However, it's a real pain to access Google Reader through the built-in browser in the N97 Mini. And there seems to be no simple, straightforward way to insert all the feeds (on my gReader account) into the phone. 
    Are there any news reader (RSS, Atom) applications for Symbian/Nokia phones that you would recommend?
    There are many excellent free RSS-reader apps for the iPhone and Windows Mobile, but I can't seem to find a half-decent one for Nokia phones.  Even a search on Ovi Store only brought up two. Both are not free and don't have spectacular reviews. (If I'm going to pay for it, I want to know it's a great, bug-free application first!)
     Thanks. 

    the best out there is currently google reader. its not an online app, but more of a webpage, the interface is similar to the full blown google reader. visit www.google.com/reader from the default web browser.

  • Scrolling RSS reader HTML for iWeb 09

    Hi
    Anyone know whether it is possible to replace the standard RSS reader widget with something a bit flasher, quite fancy a scrolling reader that would roll through say 10 entries in a box. I've had a trawl through here and Google, but seem to be drawing a complete blank.
    Thanks

  • Looking for best RSS reader

    Need one with swipe left/right to navigate to the next item and also has adjustable text as well as has a full screen reading mode. It would also be nice to find one which also has share to Google+.  Byline has the the 1st feature I want/love by doesnt allow you to change the font size to smaller.
    Do any rss reader apps exist with all these?
    Basically my favorite Android app gReader Pro had all of these features. But now I have the iPhone 4 and need replacement.

    To be honest, you are better off using a computer and this software:
    http://calibre-ebook.com/
    It will convert ebook formats...if you buy a reader, you are committed to that environment.  WIth the above and a computer, you can install the PC version of your favorite ereader and use the software to convert other formats to it.

  • Rss reader application

    I am using google reader and I am almost happy with it, but I would like to find a separate rss reader because of two things:
    1) Filtering. I am subscribed to rss from a newspaper.some.domain, and I am getting ALL articles through rss feed. Now it contains a lots of stupid boxing match/football game stuff and I would like to exclude all articles that link to newspaper.some.domain/sport/ page, leaving all the other news.
    2) Image previews. Google reader shows image previews for feeds from flickr/photosight/etc. But from any photo hosting site I see 2 image previews one above another on iBook, and ~3.5 on iMac. I want them to be in columns, I guess one could fit ~6 previews on iBook in 3 columns and quite a dozen on iMac.
    Anyone?

    Do you mean it is an open source and I could change it to suit my needs?..
    It does exactly opposite to what I want - it copies google reader - no filtering by criteria (like NOT, OR, target url includes, etc.), no compact preview mode - look at the screenshot - all this white space I want to be filled!
    Really would like some advanced filtering and columns/mosaic mode for image preview. Anything actually, but specifically thought for image previewing from rss. It would be nice to have both in one app, like to filter out 'still lifes', but even two separate apps would do - one with filtering for news and another for images...

  • Safari cannot connect to the App Store so I can setup an RSS Reader.

    Let me be clear about a key point first - I can connect to the iTunes Store in the program, I can connect to the App Store in the program, and Safari has no problem acting as a browser.
    BUT, I want to use RSS feeds and this is where things fall down.
    If the Podcasts app is installed then all XML links to RSS feeds default to being opened in the Podcasts app, and I wouldn't mind this if the Podcasts app could actually display RSS feeds, but it can't. No problem, I'll just remove the Podcasts app.
    Now when I click on a link to an RSS feed, Safari gives me the following error,
    Cannot Open Page
    This is a link to an RSS feed. Would you like to search the App Store for apps that can display RSS feeds?
    And my options are Cancel or Search.
    I click Search, because when I find an RSS feed on a page I want to subscribe to I don't want to have that error again.
    The App Store opens and I almost immediately get the error,
    Cannot connect to iTunes Store
    However, once I click the OK option, the App Store works fine. I can connect to the App Store.
    So, I pick an RSS app anyway to install it. It downloads fine, and I go on browsing in Safari. I find another link to an RSS feed, and this pops up again,
    Cannot Open Page
    This is a link to an RSS feed. Would you like to search the App Store for apps that can display RSS feeds?
    Excuse me? I've already installed an RSS app... and by now I've installed 5 different apps in the hopes that at least 1 of them will do what Podcasts obnoxiously did before and claim the default app status for XML links.
    So, Safari works as a browser, the iTunes Store App works, and the App Store app works, but if Safari opens the App Store then I get an error. If I could somehow set which applications opened what links and document types then this wouldn't be a problem either because I could just manually set what I wanted, but I can't.
    ಠ_ಠ
    What the heck? Why was RSS ripped from Safari with nary a word, leaving in its place the pathetic Reading List function? Bookmarks are for reading later, RSS is for push to me updates, Reading List is just plain pointless and a waste of code. And why can't I set what programs I want to open what file types? /rant
    I've already tried the Change Date trick, the Reset All Settings trick, the Turn Off Genius trick, and every other trick I could find where ever the phrase, "Cannot connect to itunes store" popped up in these forums and on the web, and none of them work - I suspect that this is because the App Store does work fine normally for me.
    All I want is for Safari or an RSS program to open an RSS feed when I click on the link while browsing the web. Why is this so darn hard?

    Hi alèna,

  • How do I move photos in iphoto for ipad from album to album ?

    how do i move photos in iPhoto for iPad from album to album ?

    If you want to move a photo, then you need to use a PC or a Mac. In iPad, you can copy, but this is just a link to the original. It's something I've been wanting to do for a while...but it looks like it needs another photo program to do it.

  • Safari 5.1.2: Where is the built-in RSS Reader theme stored?

    Hi all,
    Safari's built-in RSS reader menus are displayed in wrong language on my system - does anybody know in which library Apple's blue RSS reader theme and/or it's ressources are stored, so I could check for missing language files? All hints I could find on the web are describing pre-5.1 versions of Safari, and after investigating my current libraries I'm sure the ressources changed, e.g. the SyndicationUI.framework under /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks.
    Does anybody have any hints for me?

    OK, here's what I'm talking about. This is a screen capture of a tab from the Macintosh version of Safari:
    Notice how the "X" to close the tab is on the left-hand side and the text of the tab is centered on the width of the tab.
    Here is a screenshot of the Windows version of Safari:
    You can see how the tab is much smaller for one, but also how the text is justified to the left with the "X" to close the tab appearing on the right side of the tab instead of the left.
    I don't really prefer one over the other (ie. left or right side), I just wondered if there's some setting to make them act the same way on both so that I don't have to constantly remember what OS I'm on in order to remember where the darn "X" is to close the tab.
