Allow others to order iPhoto calendar via Apple Photos Services (or other)

I thought I saw this option somewhere, but I have an iPhoto calendar that I've printed through Apple Photo Services for myself. I now want to make that cal available for others to print without having to be involved in placing the order for them. Is that possible? Ideally, they would not even need a .mac account, but could order as a guest. If Apple does not offer this service, does anyone know of a short-run printer that will take the PDF and make a cal of it? Fed Ex/Kinko's does not have a lot of info on their site for that kind of thing. I will call them shortly.
Thanks.

Thanks Terence. I assume the file is stored on the Apple server for 4 weeks (in which time it is removed), so I'm unclear why they can't assign it a unique number and allow me to send that number to my mom who can use it to order the cal. That does not seem impossible to me and could help Apple make more money on prints.

  • Apple photo services vs Smugmug

    Does anyone have any views on whether Apple Photo Services does a better job with prints than Smugmug? How do they compare?
    Thanks

    If you use SmugMug's high-end service (Bay Photo) the photos quality is outstanding. For images where quality is the most important it's what I'd use… let's say that

  • Ordered Iphoto calendar. One picture is blurred and bad. Can I get a new calendar?

    Ordered an iphoto calendar for 2015. One picture is blurred and bad. Can I get a new calendar? To whom do I report this problem?
    Joan

    Maybe - did you preview the calendar -
    Before ordering your calendar preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered calendar will match it.
    What is the printed size of the image and what are it's pixel dimensions - it need to be no less than 150 DPI for a good, clear print
    You can contact Apple at the address included in your  order confirmation email and see what they will do - but if the picture is too small reprinting will not help

  • Problems with Apple Photo Services

    I've been having problems with Apple's Photo Services. The first time, I'm pretty sure I didn't crop some pics correctly, but they were gracious enough to refund my $$. However, then I got serious about cropping in Aperture 2, and double-checked everything before submitting them. The 20 x 30s were fine, but the 16 x 20s were all screwed up. My $ was refunded for these, but I can't figure out whether the problem is mine, or in the transmission of the pics, or something that went wrong in the Photo Service. When I complain, they always send back a small pdf of what they claim they received, and it always matches what they printed. But that's not what I sent them.
    Anyone else have these problems? Might it be a bug in Aperture 2?
    Sean

    When I do a bulk export from Aperture 2, to anywhere, (flickr, Photoshelter, a set of files, gallery), randomly, (about 2 in thirty images are affected).
    The effect is stretched non-centerd cropping. I think it only affects random cropped images. Not all cropped images, but I am not sure about non-cropped images. ...
    The extra effort to go back to the export, after the fact, just to check up on the quality exported images is a waste of my time, but now made necessary.
    The thing that bothers me the most is that selecting the images that have been exported with the problem and then re-exporting those images produces, for me, the export I originally expected without the errors.

  • Ordering iPhoto calendar

    After working for several hours on a calendar as a gift for my dad, I have been unable to successfully order it. I have an Apple ID that I frequently use with iTunes to buy music, but when I click "Buy Calendar", I can only click on "Set Up New ACcount"; "Account Info" is not highlighted. So then I click on "Set Up New Acct.", sign in with my apple id and password, and then it takes me to "Set Up Account: Step 1 of 3." All my info on Steps 1-3 is already filled in correctly, so I just click next, and then on Step 3 when I hit continue, I always get the message, "An unexepected error occurred. Please try again later. I have been trying for a month now and get that same message every time, though I have purchased several items on iTunes in this past month. It's almost like iPhoto is not recognizing my Apple ID/account. Do you have any ideas? I am very frustrated.
    Thanks,
    Jianming

    Jianming:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Contact Apple via this link: http://www.apple.com/support/iphoto/customerservice/calendars/. Lay out the problem in detail and submit. You should hear back from them in 1-2 days.
    Also log into your account thru the Store button at the top and then the Youre Account on that page, as opposed thru iPhoto, and see if you can confirm your account that way without an error.

  • Scrambled order of images via Apple TV from shared folder

    When I select a folder of images on my computer which are sorted in ascending number in the folder, the set of images I then view on my TV is partially scrambled!  Why don't they appear in the numeric order which I created in the folder?  I have added numerals from 001- on up, to the beginning names of the image files, in order to show them in the order I chose.  What is going on??
    Eilert

    You can try...
    Express Lane (select your country, navigate to iCloud help and enter the serial number of one of your devices)
    However, since this is how it's supposed to work, I'm not sure what they can do for you.
    I'm not sure why you don't want to use iPhoto, but I can put my photos in any order whatsoever using it.

  • Great service from Apple Photo Services Customer Support

    This isn't a question, but I believe in giving credit where credit is due:
    I have some friends who run a small dance school and made them a souvenir book of my photos from their most recent recital. Several parents who saw the book wanted to order copies, and I said I'd get more if they were willing to pay the actual cost. I ended up with nine requests, and told them the books should be ready by the end of this week.
    With plenty of time, I transmitted my order about two weeks ago and specified standard delivery. When the books shipped, the notification email I got said they'd be delivered Monday. On Monday I received the standard small shipping box containing ONE book. The other eight copies were missing, even though FedEx tracking said the delivery was complete.
    I emailed APSCS and got back an email from a support person named Duana. She (at least I assume it's a she) said that sometimes a multiple-book order would ship in two cartons, even though FedEx only assigns one tracking number. She said that if I hadn't received the rest of the books by the end of Tuesday, I should email her back. She said she would be on her "weekend" Wednesday and Thursday, but would watch for my response on Friday when she was back at work.
    By the end of Tuesday, the missing books still hadn't arrived, so that evening I sent another email. I got a reply back from Duana saying my timing was good -- she was 15 minutes away from leaving for her weekend! She said she would re-place the order and try to have it expedited as much as possible.
    Today (Thursday) I received a carton containing the replacement order of eight books, via FedEx Express Priority delivery. I had mentioned to Duana that the books were all for different people, so she also sent me another carton containing nine individual boxes, so that each person could have his/her book in its own box!
    I know that in my own work, when people come to me with a request 15 minutes before I'm supposed to leave for the weekend, I'm sometimes tempted to let it slide. I'm glad Duana is a better service person than I am!
    Her willingness to assume ownership of my problem and go the extra distance to resolve it promptly means that I'll be able to get everyone their books when I promised, and I really, really appreciate that.
    The priority shipping was more expensive than what I had paid for, too, so I'm impressed that Apple gives its support people the latitude to spend a bit more money in order to satisfy a customer.

    Wow, what a great experience! It's what we all expect of Customer Service and rarely get, so it is nice to know that Apple can do it.

  • Elements 7... printing via online photo service

    I'm not sure if this is a hardware or software issue, but I decided to start here.
    I have a Core 2 duo processor (2.67Mgz), a nVidia 7950GT video card, Vista home premium 32 bit (fully updated), and about 3.3 gig of  useable ram.  I have a Samsumg SyncMaster 2693HM monitor and an HP Photosmart 7180 multifunction printer.   I use a Nikon D90 in sRGB mode.
    My issue is that when I upload pictures to a local regional pharmacy's third party photo printing service, they come out darker,  with less vivid colors than when I print them on my printer.
    When I bought Photoshop/Premiere Elements 7 last summer I decided to callibrate my monitor.  I used the software that came with the monitor:  Natural Color Pro-Color management system.  It was just a manaual system, leading through several screens to adjust brightness, contrast etc.  It's done by sight, so I assume the results are far from optimal.  Ultimately, I want to get something like Syder Pro, but for now I would like some input.
    When I start the Photoshop Elements editor I get this error message:  The monitor profile "Samsung-Natural Color Pro 1.0 appears to be defective.  Please retiurn your monitor callibration software.  There are two dialog boxes underneath.........."ignore profile" or "use anyway."  I'm not sure which choice I choose to go past.
    I'm not sure if any of this information directly relates to printing pictures.  I've not tried submit the pictures to another online photo finisher like Costco.  I live in a small town and don't get over to Costco that often.
    Based on the information I've provided, does anyone have any idea why the pictures would be dark and less vivid?  They look good on screen.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Versamail Exchange ActiveSync wireless push e-mail ONLY; Sync Contacts/Calendar via Desktop/USB

    I use a 3rd party conduit, PalmPilot Link for Commence RM CRM software from Commence Corp. which works with the Palm Desktop sync engine to sync my Contacts, Calendar, Tasks and Memos. Recently I tested VersaMail 3.5.5 on my Rogers Treo 680 (despite zero support from Rogers) with push e-mail and loved it until I discovered I could no longer sync my Contacts and Calendar with Commence. Even with the options in VersaMail to sync Contacts and the Calendar unchecked they would not sync via the USB cable to Commence.
    I have come across Palm Article ID: 42600 which states "Once you establish an Exchange ActiveSync account in VersaMail, you will not be able to sync Calendar, Contacts or Email through the USB HotSync cable". It would be nice if this wasn't the case when synching of Contacts and the Calendar are turned off. A call to technical support confirmed there is no way to do what I need with the current product version.
    I have found a competitive product, RoadSync from DataViz does allow me to sync ONLY e-mail with ActiveSync so it would seem to be technically possible.  The problem with RoadSync is it's not a true push e-mail on the Treo 680 as far as I can tell and it seems a little pricey with fewer features than VersaMail, except for one feature which is very important to anyone who depends on 3rd party conduits.
    Please consider releasing a new version or a patch to allow synching Contacts and the Calendar via USB while using Exchange ActiveSync push e-mail.
    Note: The Commence CRM product for Windows has been around for almost 20 years and has supported the Palm OS for about 10 years. Commence users everywhere would love this feature in VersaMail. I do not work for Commence Corp. but have been a user since 1991 and a Palm user since 1999.

  • Setting aperture & apple printing services

    Hello
    I am working in Aperture and plan to order a book (my first one !) from Apple printing services and still have questions about monitor calibration... I want to be sure I do the thing properly in order to get the right results :
    - Should I calibrate the monitor using the gamma 1,8 (mac) or gamma 2,2 (most commonly used) ? From what I read, experts and professionals recommends gamma 2,2 but will it works when ordering book from Apple when the mac world is using a 1,8 gamma (or is it taken into account automatically when ordering books ?)
    - Apart from choosing the calibrated profile in System Preferences / Monitors / colors is there anything else to do in Aperture to work on the picture and order a book which photos will look the same ? I presume it would be good to select a proofing profile like Adobe RGB (1998) to work on the photos ? Which one is best to use for ordering books from the apple printing service ?
    Thanks !

    Hello Kenneth,
    Thanks for the quick feedback
    Indeed I had read this article before posting on the forum, and this one get me even more confused. Gamma 2,2 is recommended, but I am wandering if it is the right choice when ordering prints from Apple, when we know that Apple products are using gamma 1,8 ???
    Concerning the proofing profile I found this article : http://www.apple.com/support/photoservices/preparation_tips/ : it is written that when ordering prints, "the image should be in RGB mode, not CMYK." So I would conclude that I should use a RGB setting for the Proofing profile, right ? The thing is I see 2 RGB profile type : Adobe RGB and sRGB. In that case which one to use for proofing in order to check my work before ordering the book ?
    Thanks !

  • HT2292 I can't find apple time service. Where can I download this?

    I can't run my iTunes in my computer.
    When I click the service tab in the msconfig, I can't find apple time service. Other services are exist. Where can I find or download this service?

    "Rebooting" means restarting &, as fruhulda said, that won't cause things to disappear. If you mean you had the hard drive erased & the system reinstalled, you will have to find the original disk with the AppleWorks installer.
