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?

  • Faces / Places and Mobileme Gallery question

    Hi all, i could not find much on this but my question is when using faces / places and Mobileme gallery does this actually take up hard drive space ? With faces and places does that actaully create another image or is it just linked to your main library ? And for Mobileme Gallary does that actually download the images to your Mac ?
    Thanks

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

  • 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.

  • Aperture and MobileMe galleries

    Hi,
    I have the problem that the sorting criteria of my MobileMe galleries always change during the synchronisation process. I want the newest images to be shown on top. That's why I choose "date" as criteria. When I sync the gallery the sort criteria is set to "manual" automatically and the oldest images are shown on top.
    I hoped that the newest update solves this problem but that is not the case It's still the same situation.
    It is really annoying because you never know how your images show up in the MobileMe gallery.
    I use Aperture 3.0.2 on a Macbook Pro 15'' with 2,4 GHz C2D.
    Thanks for your feedback.

    I think you are talking about the order of the Galleries here. If so it is very easy to change them but certainly not intuitive to say the least. You need to log onto your MobileMe account through a web browser. The easiest way to get there is: Apple Menu: System Preference: MobileMe button: Account tab: Account Details button.
    You then log in with your name and password.
    Click on the Gallery tab (sunflower) and you can drag your MobileMe Galleries into whatever order you want. You can also change the main Gallery name here.
    Now I'd be real happy if I could make multiple sites and not just additional albums in the same site.

  • Aperture and mobileme = washed out picture after downloading?

    Hi,
    Synced a few albums from Aperture to a few mobileme gallery's so a few friends could download the pictures very easy. One of them asked me why i screwed up the pictures because the all appeared to have a washed out look on his pc.
    Tried it myself and it's true.
    If i download a picture from the gallery and open in in Xee on my mac it appears to be washed out, in preview it looks ok. On a windows pc in the default picture viewer same result.
    Opening the file in photoshop it appears to be ok.
    Tried to talk to a mobileme support guy but he couldn't help me with it.
    test album: http://gallery.me.com/reinoutsmit#100099&bgcolor=black&view=grid

    Don't fully understand what you are observing in Aperture. For me originals show Adobe RGB, as do the images seen in the MM gallery within Aperture, and as do Downloads from that MM gallery. (I primarily use SmugMug these days, and not MobileMe galleries).
    Secondly, I don't correlate what William said with viewing of a Download -- but would perhaps with Online? Any download should view fine, unless the problem is with the viewing app? And as I said, everything I could view a download with displayed fine.
    Third, another discussion, unrelated to Aperture discusses similar issues with profiles -- see:

  • Aperture and MobileMe Sync

    Syncing photos out of Aperture to a MobileMe Gallery results in missing photos and double photos in the web gallery. Workflow as follows: selected and marked Photos in my Library, clicked MobileMe button, created new MobileMe Gallery, waited sync to be complete, checked result: 305 photos in the web gallery, 435 photos in my Aperture MobileMe album. Seems the sync comes with some bugs and flaws. Help highly appreciated!

    I'm still having trouble with the same problem as described. I've followed the instructions as described below which make perfect sense...
    @ Rienzo: Currently MobileMe will only sync photos with one program at a time. You need to go to www.me.com, go to the gallery page, and for each album change the setting to sync photos from iPhoto to Aperture. The settings button looks like a light switch on the top bar.
    ... After selecting an album and the "light switch", I don't see the option listed to chose Aperture. Under the Album Settings dialog, there are three choices under "Allow", two under "Show", and one under "Advanced" non of which allow the selection with respect to Aperture vs. iPhoto others are seeing; where am I going wrong here?
    OS-X is up to date as are all applications.

  • HELP! Sudden weird behavior in Aperture and MobileMe!

    So, I am running the latest version of Aperture and have been successfully publishing many albums to mobileme.
    I have several external hard drives connected to my computer, and almost all of my image files in aperture are referenced. Lately I have been importing the images from SD cards directly into the aperture library, editing, then relocating the masters so that i would only store the keepers (i went this route because it was unclear to me whether or not originals were also deleted if i deleted referenced files--the pop up wording seems vague to me). I usually back up the new image files on the harddrives manually, and then back up the aperture library to a vault after every major import. I also wait until I have done this to reformat my sd cards.
    Of course, this morning, something happened. We had a power outage, and although i have my entire system on UPS units, i had to shut everything down because the batteries only last so long. I did not have time to perform my usual Vault back up. I had a handful of projects with masters in the aperture library (not yet edited and masters relocated). There is one project I do not still have on sd card so that one (and inconvenience for the others) hangs in the balance.
    The situation is this: When I rebooted after our power outage (i reiterate that all hard drives as well as the main mac were shut down safely and properly on battery power), all referenced file projects appear normal, but I cannot see any images in the projects with masters stored in the aperture library. The weird part is that if i put the pointer over those projects, i do get the little balloon that tells me how many versions are in each project. It's like aperture knows they are there, but I don't see them. And another weird thing--the REJECTED images from these projects DO appear when I click on the Rejected Smart Album. And the starred images from those projects DO appear when I click on the one-star-or-better smart album. I don't get it.
    I also cannot see some of the mobileme galleries within aperture when i select them. When i went on-line to see my gallery, there is some weird behavior...some albums are acting strange, confusing images from other albums, or not accepting my username and password settings (I know they are right), or giving me a different album when I select one to look at.
    PLEASE HELP if you can. If I need to, I can always restart from my vault version of the library and reimport last week's stuff from the sd cards, but i'd rather not do that, not to mention there is that one project i will lose.
    I'm here waiting for anyone who thinks they can help!
    Thanks,
    Heather

    Hi Heather
    I was wondering if I was the only one with this problem. Unfortunately I don't have an answer. I'm running Aperture 2 on a MacBook, with my library on an external drive. The problem is increasing; it seems that most (but not all) recent projects are affected, but none that I created before the problem first started.

  • IWeb and MobileMe Gallery

    I am trying to upload pictures from the MobileMe Gallery.  I have albums published but when I move the MobileMe widget to the web page I am creating it reads "No albums or movies". Please help.

    I've jumpstarted the MMe widget with the following 2 fixes before:
    Try this:
    quit iWeb
    go to the System/MobileMe preference pane and log out of MMe.
    login with a bogus username and password like "Ying" and "Yang". This clears the caches.
    login with your correct username and password.
    launch iWeb and try again.
    Ahother method that worked one time was:
    delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
    go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
    launch iWeb and try again.
    HOWEVER, a way to embed your MMe gallery and not worry about fixes is to go online and get the URL of your MMe gallery and plug it into the following code in an HTML snippet:
    <script src="http://gallery.mac.com/g/flash/photowidget_iefix.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
    writeObj("http://gallery.me.com/MobileMeName/XXXXXX", 226, 199);
    </script>
    Thanks to Wyodor for the code.
    Where XXXXXX is the number of your MobileMe gallery

  • Aperture to MobileMe gallery - shots are not sharp

    I use both Zenfolio and MobileMe and export from Aperture 2 to both of these sites, but my photos on MobileMe look a bit fuzzy on MobileMe, while they look great in Zenfolio. Anyone have this issue or have any tips?
    THanks,
    Peter

    I also want to add to what Mr Endo said...
    A) It shouldn't be possible to select a folder and then have the option of publishing to Mobile Me, Facebook or Flickr. For me those are all grayed out when I have a folder selected in the sidebar.
    B) Are you referring to a project or an album by chance? If so, then you will need to select the photos, in the Browser, before choosing to upload to an online service.
    Cheers,
    Owen

  • IPhoto and MobileMe gallery

    Since switching from MobileMe to iCloud I am unable to add a new album to my MobileMe gallery. If I do add a new album it is removed almost immediately.
    I am also unable to 'share' it from MobileMe gallery before it is removed automatically almost immediately it is put on.
    Could anybody explain why and how to fix this problem.

    I would like to add to this thread.  Same problems with updating to the iPhoto 11 and the "cloud".  The photo's taken on my iPhone are displaying in my "Photo Stream", I add the photo's I want from the Photo stream to my iPhoto library stored locally, and then publish the album to mobile me.
    Problem is, as soon as the seldected photo's are published to mobile me I go to the "web" pane on iPhoto in order to send an email to my friends that a new album is posted.  As soon as I select "web" on the right hand selection pane in iPhoto 11, I receive the following:
    iPhoto displays "The published album has been removed from Mobile me". 
    The album is saved from photo stream to my iPhoto album, but the selected photo's will not publish to mobile me.  This is a problem with apples new Lion OS and iPhoto 11.  One more example of how Apple has rolled out new products that are not ready.  I moved from PC to Mac 10 years ago because of this same problem with PC software, now Apple has lost its way and is putting new software on the market that just doesn't work and I suspect the OS will become irrelevant agian if the company doesn't focus on what drew customers to their platform.  So disappointed with Apple again...its becoming very common.

  • Aperture and .Mac Gallery

    Hi there! I downloaded the trial version of Aperture 2 on my G5 Dual 2.0Ghz. With my X800 XT it sounds to work faster the the first version, but I have got some troubles with .Mac gallery. I have installed Little Snitch on my G5, and when I run Aperture, it asks me the authorization for logging to .Mac gallery. Well, I allow the connection, but Aperture becomes unusable, absolutely slow. From the monitor network of little snitch I see that there is always an exchange of data from Aperture to .Mac gallery. This strange connection is always active even if I don't have any .Mac gallery in my library, or when the .Mac gallery is already published. I already checked that if I don't allow the connection, no data are sent ore received and the speed of Aperture is good. Can anyone tell me how it's possible that?
    Thanks for all replies
    Fabry

    I've been researching the same issue. I have a .mac account and have been playing with iPhoto '08, creating albums and publishing them on my .dot mac Web Gallery. I love the features of the Web Gallery (syncing, downloading pics, other people uploading pics, subscribing). All of these features at the touch of the Web Gallery button at the bottom corner of iPhoto have made me a Mac Convert!
    That said, I like the "expanded" features offered in Aperture (referencing to masters, editing, seemless editing with Photoshop, better templates for albums and web stuff). However, I recently created an "Album", a new "Web Gallery" from that album and then clicked the "Publish to .mac" button. Voila! It sent it to Homepage in .mac instead of "My Gallery" (the one I set up via iPhoto). Both are visible in my .mac account, but there should be a way to publish my Aperture album/web gallery to "My Gallery" instead of Homepage. I'm trying to avoid importing the Aperture photos into iPhoto because it copies them into iPhoto creating a nasty disk space issue for me. In fact, that's one of the major reasons I wanted to use Aperture (so I could simply "reference" the photos on an external drive).
    Let me know if you hear of any solutions.

  • Changes applied and MobileMe Gallery

    After uploading a gallery to MobileMe I changed some picture's settings (exposure an such) within Aperture. I expected Aperture to upload the new versions with the next MobielMe Gallery sync.
    But it won't. What am I doing wrong?

    Have you refreshed your browser? Maybe you need to clear your cache and reload the page.
    Does both the visitor and owner pages show the old versions of the pictures?
    You could create a duplicate version of the images and add those to the MobileMe album. Then. delete the old version and sync the album.

  • Aperture and MobileMe - Unable to make galleries

    Anyone else having this issue... If I try and make a gallery of say anything that is over 20 photos it takes Aperture FOREVER to upload and then always gives me some error after say 30 minutes saying it was unable. Only after I try uploading the same album a few times does it seem to finally upload. What gives?

    I'm also having a problem though slightly different. SInce upgrading to Aperture 2.1.1 now my Web Galleries (now Mobile Me galleries) only upload small screen resolution jpgs even though I am setting it correctly to upload the original files. I've tried deleting the galleries in question and building new ones but I get the same results. I hate to be down on Apple because there's so many people out there that will begrudge them anything but the Mobile Me debacle is obviously not over yet.

  • Faces / Places and MobileMe Gallery?

    Hi all,
    I have all my photos stored on MobileMe, which were uploaded from my Mac at home, which had faces and places all set up. However, I've just set up iPhoto on my MacBook Air, to just use the MobileMe galleries (to save hard drive space), and the faces and places data hasn't transferred. I don't mind setting it up again, but I can't seem to get started - I can see Faces has scanned all my photos, but there's no way of adding any names to the photos. How can I do this?
    Thanks in advance!

    Splitting the Library will not save you any disk space, and will, in fact, use more as the database and support files will be duplicated. Also, it's less convenient as you can only access one Library at a time. If you're worried about disk space you can run a Library from an external disk.
    That said:
    Duplicate the Library in the Finder.
    Open the first one - lets say it's the 2009 one - and remove all the 2008 elements from it.
    Then Open the second one and remove all the 2009 elements from it.
    Result: two libraries, intact for the respective years.
    To choose a Library to open: Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    Managing Multiple Libraries - including moving pics/albums/rolls and metadata between them - is greatly facilitated by using iPhoto Library Manager
