Announce MobileMe Gallery in Aperture

I have recently made the switch to Aperture.
I have created a new MobileMe gallery. How do I announce this gallery in Aperture? It was easy in iPhoto.
TIA
PK

G,day,
When you select the Mobile Me gallery, in the Library Inspector, it loads the images in Viewer, Browser or Split view, (what ever you have selected)
Then at the bottom right of the screen is a little drop down arrow lablled MobileMe
It offers you three options, the third is "Tell a friend".
Click and it will open a mail message, (I happen to use Mail, but I'm really old fashioned like that)
It will have a small photo icon from the gallery and a View Gallery button.
You add the name of the recipient(s), any info you want and send. Hi-presto, job done.
Hope that helps

Trouble creating a MobileMe Gallery with Aperture

I'm having trouble creating a MobileMe Gallery from within Aperture. In the past it work flawlessly but now it isn't working at all. This is what happens: I create a gallery from within Aperture by clicking on either "New/MobileMe Album, or "New From Selection/MobileMe Album." The gallery is made and appears in Aperture. However, when I visit the MobileMe site the Gallery doesn't contain any images. When I sync it again the gallery disappears from within Aperture all together.
Any ideas?

I resolved my problem by rebuilding the Aperture Library from the Aperture Vault. Apparently, and this makes sense, Aperture can't build a Gallery if the photo version, or photo itself is missing. I think the reason why it appeared visible is because the Preview file was embedded...

Aperture Crashing when Announcing a MobileMe Gallery

I am having a consistent problem announcing MobileMe galleries in Aperture. When I click "MobileMe Gallery" and "Tell a Friend", Apple Mail spawns 2-4 e-mail messages to announce the gallery but the content of the message(s) has no links to my gallery and all the information in the e-mail is generic. For example, where the title of my gallery should be it just says "TITLE" in the e-mail. Also, where the e-mail address should be to allow users to e-mail photos to MobileMe and attach them to my gallery it just says "EMAIL_ADDRESS" instead of the gallery e-mail address. In addition, Aperture crashes every single time without fail when I attempt to announce one of my galleries. I have announced galleries in the past without experiencing this issue.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Some others have had problems with the announce feature within iPhoto. Have you tried visiting the web gallery online and doing it from there with the Tell a Friend button? At least until the issue is resolved?
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's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

"Removed" images still appear in MobileMe gallery online

1. Made a MobileMe gallery in Aperture
2. Published it. Gallery appears OK on MobileMe.
3. In Aperture, removed two images from album (Right-click->Remove From Album)
4. Sync from Aperture, expecting images to disappear from MobileMe online
5. Pictures that were removed appear again in Aperture
6. Remove pictures again, re-sync, multiple times
7. Removed pictures finally stay gone in Aperture, but are still on MobilMe
How do I delete them from the online gallery?
Thanks.

I haven't experienced this, but you can always go delete them on the sever side. e.g., logon to the Mobile Me site and delete them from the gallery there. It does sounds like a temporary syncing glitch as mentioned above.

Add old/existing mobileme galleries to Aperture?

I have created mobileme galleries with iPhone and iPhoto on another computer, and would now like to be able to manage them on Aperture 3. Is this possible?
I have imported the old iPhoto library, but none of the mobileme galleries imported.
I have already created a new mobileme gallery from Aperture, so I'm signed in ok.

You might try this.
View your mobileme gallery via your web browser.
Single click on your gallery.
Then click on the "Adjust settings" button (Looks like two sliders)
Look towards the bottom of the pane and you'll find "Syncs with"
You might be able to change that from iPhoto to Aperture

MobileMe Gallery

I have Aperture 2 installed on my iMac and notebook. I typically use the iMac but am going on a trip and will be bringing my Macbook with me. I'd like to upload photos from Aperture to a MobileMe gallery that I have. Is there a way to insert an already published MobileMe gallery into Aperture on the MacBook?
Thanks,
Bill

http://gallery.mac.com/userid
or
http://gallery.me.com/userid
obviously replace userid with your MobileMe login but the iPhone does challenge you for your ID properly and will let you view the gallery.

MobileMe Gallery - image sharpness

I'm noticing that when I create a MobileMe Gallery from Aperture 3.0.3 the images look unsharp and fuzzy. The same images look perfect to me on-screen in Aperture and when printed to my Epson 3800.
I have even adjusted some test images and set the sharpening to it's max value but don't see any noticeable difference on MobileMe.
I've searched here and Google but can't see any mention of this problem - surely it's not just my images that look unsharp ?
Mark

It's understandable that photos in your Mobile Me galleries look soft, and as if they need additional sharpening. The root cause, however, is that the displayed image is just too low resolution if you try and display anything near full-screen on a reasonably-sized monitor.
When you build Mobile Me galleries with a hi-res .jpg file, the Mobile Me server makes up to 4 copies of it:
large.jpg (Optimized or Actual size, if specified)
medium.jpg (427 × 285)
square.jpg (160x160)
web.jpg (1024x640)
The largest image the Mobile Me servers will ever display in a web page is the web.jpg version, even if you specified Allow Downloading of Actual Sized images in your Mobile Me gallery settings - that setting only applies to images you download, not display. No amount of pre-sharpening will make that image look sharp if you display it larger than 1024x640 in your web browser.
(This resolution limit is one of the reason I mostly gave up on Mobile Me galleries except for those quickie "fun photos for friends and family" slideshows - which, in fairness, is really the application that Apple intended for these galleries. Though I've mostly switched to Flickr galleries, they're actually not that much better...)

Trying to delete a MobileMe album causes Aperture 3 to crash every time.

I published an album to my MobileMe Gallery from Aperture 3 (as a test), and now I want to delete it from MobileMe. However, every single time I tried to do this in Aperture 3, the app crashed (and I sent those reports to Apple). As a last resort, I logged into MobileMe directly and was able to delete the album there, but it still shows up under "MobileMe Galleries" in Aperture. How do I fix this problem? I am up to date on software, I think (3.0.2). Thanks for any help you can provide.

TThanks for that Linc.
tried that but mail still crashed. So modified it a bit. I archived my important emails and then erased the mailbox itself so that all messages were deleted. This was successful.

MobileMe gallery link

What is the best replacement for MobileMe gallery with Aperture?( if there is such a thing?)

You can publish your Aperture web pages and smart webpages to your disk, and then upload them to the ftp-server your internet provider offers. I am using CyberDuck to upload my web pages.
You may find Roger Wilmut's site useful:
Migrating from Mobile Me:

And if you are using iWeb to publish your site see this help text by Old Toad and Roddy to keep iWeb working after the end of MobileMe:

Can Mobileme Gallery upload edited versions?

I'm trying to sync Mobileme Gallery. Aperture uploads unedited versions instead of edited versions. I want to upload edited versions. Is it possible?

Ok, thanks. Aperture will upload the edited versions but when I have edited a photo with Dodge & Burn, Aperture makes a tiff file. And when I put this tiff file in the gallery folder, Aperture puts both versions in the folder because the make together a stack. Then it uploads only the original version. So I have to unstack and then it works fine. I hope that I didn't have to unstack them...

Aperture 3 and mobileme gallery

I hope this makes sense to someone!
I purchased aperture 3, imported my iphoto pictures and then started to upload my newest photos into mobileme through the mobileme gallery button. It has created the albums and uploaded them (I can see them in the aperture side bar), but it has created a new gallery folder on my mobile me space rather than popping them into a folder already set up that is the one my iweb is using. So when I log into iweb I cannot see the newest albums. So, after all that, my question is: how do I get aperture to upload the new albums into my existing iweb linked gallery? Or how do I merge the two?
Phew!!!
many thanks

Drop them on the desktop then upload directly from the MoMe Album.

How to add uploaded photos (not from aperture) in Mobileme Gallery to a project

I shared some photos using a mobileme gallery where I allowed friends to upload their photos to the gallery. Now the gallery exists with both the photos from my aperture library (and project) and my friends photos (which appear in aperture with a little symbol).
I would like to have the photos that were uploaded by my friends to be added to a new project without moving or erasing them in the mobileme gallery. Is there a simple way to do this? I know if I select photos from a project and drag and drop them to another project aperture moves the photos but I don't know if this is how aperture handles mobileme galleries in the inspector.
Jeff

Just drag an image from the MobileMe Gallery to a project it will copy the image, not move it. Aperture will move images that are stored locally in the library but since these images uploaded by friends are only stored on the MobileMe servers, Aperture will make a copy when you drag them to a project.

Putting Mobileme Gallery Photos into Aperture Project

Hello,
I was recently on vacation with my brother and we each took pictures with our cameras. We used a laptop to load the photos to a new mobile me gallery. When I got home, I opened aperture and the mobileme gallery appeared under the mobileme gallery list. My question is how can I get those photos into a new aperture project, where the photos become the master photos locally on my mac? I tried selecting and dragging them to a new project but each photo has a globe on it and I am worried that if I delete the gallery, the photos will disappear.
Jeff

Hi,
I have one image in my Aperture Library that has a globe badge. I've been struggling to understand what it means as this badge is not explained in the manual and I can't find anything on the web.
Are you saying this happens when you pull photos from MobileMe? I've never done this, so it's a bit strange. I do often send galleries from Aperture to MobileMe, but have never done the reverse.

MobileMe Gallery - not respecting Aperture security setup

I have around 5 albums on my MobileMe gallery which are synchronised with Aperture (in fact I create them in Aperture).
Of these albums, 2 are password-protected and 3 are public. I haven't created an album in a while (probably since Aperture 2!) and I have been trying to create a public (i.e. no password) album to no avail.
Basically, although in Aperture, the settings for the album are listed as "public" access, whenever I try to access the album on the web through MobileMe Gallery, I am asked for a password. I have tried re-syncing, tried creating multiple new albums - whatever I do I am always asked for a password and the thumbnails of these newly created albums have the padlock icon denoting that they are password protected.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
thanks in advance
Raf

Hi there
I tested with an empty library and discovered that it was definitely an issue linked to 1 particular library (rather than the app as a whole).
Thanks for linking to the Troubleshooting page for Aperture - although I had previously trashed preferences and selected "Repair Database" this did not solve the problem so I tried the "Rebuild" option which always scares me but it did work this time (I made sure I had a Vault backup just in case)!
Thanks and hopefully this thread may benefit other Aperture users in future!

Aperture and MobileMe Gallery

I have a website which was created in Aperture and uploaded to my MobileMe Gallery some time ago. Since upgrading to version 3 it seems that the gallery has lost its link with the Aperture Album. The MobileMe gallery shows 'Sync with Aperture' in the info window but the Gallery does not show in the MobileMe Gallery Section of Aperture.
Is there anyway I can re-link the Gallery and Aperture manually?
Thanks,
Chris

No one able to offer any insight to this issue?
