Aperture to MobileMe sync

OK, working in aperture, have a folder that I would like to upload to to my mobileme gallery... i select the folder and then hit the mobileme button at the top... it places the album under mobile me in the inspector. The problem is, is that it only uploaded one photo from that folder, i have tried by hitting the sync button, but it still will not upload anymore of the photos that reside in that folder. Anyone have a clue?
Thanks!!!!

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

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.

How do I stop MobileMe Sync with Aperture 3?

Hi All,
I just published my first gallery to MobileMe from AP3. It was quick and easy and I like that it's easy to share to friends. However, is there any way to leave the gallery up while disconnecting or preventing Aperture from syncing with it? I don't plan to make any changes to this gallery now, after the initial upload and I'm wondering if one can just upload and be done with it (letting the gallery live on the web) - and not have Aperture try to continually connect to the gallery for updating. Or, is there a way to just update manually?
Thanks.

Hey narfee,
I found an article that can goes over how to unregister your computer from syncing.
MobileMe Sync: About registering and unregistering computers
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1074
It depends on what type of computer you're using, but I pasted the relevant steps below:
Unregister a computer from syncing
If you no longer want a computer to sync with MobileMe, you can unregister the computer from syncing. You can unregister any computer that is registered for syncing from any other computer with Mac OS X v10.4.11, v10.5.8, v10.6.x, OS X Lion, Windows XP, or Windows Vista, as long as you know your member name and password.
Unregistering a computer from syncing does not delete any data.
To unregister a computer from syncing:
Mac OS X v10.4.11
Open System Preferences
Click .Mac
Click Advanced
Select the Computer you wish to unregister
Click Unregister
Mac OS X v10.5.8, v10.6.x, OS X Lion
Open System Preferences
Click MobileMe
Click Sync
Click Advanced
Select the Computer you wish to unregister
Click Unregister
Note: In Mac OS X v10.5.8, if you unregister all computers you may be prompted to delete unwanted sync data. If you are no longer syncing with MobileMe, you can delete the unused sync data from the MobileMe servers.
Windows XP or Vista
Open Control Panel
Click MobileMe Preferences
Click Sync
Click Advanced
Select the Computer you wish to unregister
Click Unregister
Cheers,
David

Aperture - iWeb - MobileMe... WORKFLOWS WANTED!

I come seeking advice, and hoping this online essay will spark some discussion on the much-needed integration of Apple-apps online photo sharing and display capabilities -- and I promise to keep the rants to a minimum...
*What I'm trying to do:*
Create a series of Aperture-published (or at least Aperture-based, since that's where my pictures reside) photo pages, pages on which visitors can...
1) Quickly peruse the thumbs (with column&row arrangement, sizing, and framing options all determined by me), while also reading some descriptive text I've provided re the overall event being showcased;
2) View individual shots at a modest but adjustable display size in Slideshow mode (with transition options I've set), and simultaneously see the associated Caption, Date and whatever other Aperture-stored metadata I've chosen to be displayed for that set of images; and then, if they so desire...
3) Download selected images at their original, FULL-pixel dimensions (assuming I've set the page to allow that).
4) PLUS, I want to have each of these individual pages indexed on an iWeb "Album Page", which allows for the contents of each individual photo page to be mouse-skimmed before actually clicking and going to that page.
*An Impossible Dream?*
Not really. Everything I've just described is relatively easy to do -- but only in bits and pieces, it appears -- using Aperture, Aperture-published MobileMe Albums (aka Galleries) and Aperture-published Web Pages, iWeb '09, iWeb's Media Browser, and a MobileMe account. So now I find myself playing Dr. Frankenstein (that's "Fronkensteen"), and trying to stitch together a new form of photographic life online.
In other words, I'm just trying to create the kind of truly functional and flexible photo pages which SHOULD be a no-brainer by now, since all the features I'm imagining already exist! (Then again, I shouldn't ask for too much -- I mean it's not like Aperture, iWeb, and the MobileMe service are all from the same company, right?)
*In OTHER other words...*
I want to publish Gallery-esque pages from Aperture, but ones which automatically include and display whatever combination of Caption, Title, Date, or any other Metadata I select. And ones which can be INDIVIDUALLY indexed on an iWeb Album Page, as opposed to simply dragging in iWeb's MobileMe widget (which so far as I can tell just gives you a single link to ALL your Galleries in one quick but inelegant whack).
OR...
I want to publish Aperture Web Pages, but ones which aren't given a ludicrous "homepage.mac" URL (cripes, how old is THAT code?), and which can be easily seen by iWeb once published, so they can then be dragged into iWeb Album pages for convenient indexing and one-stop skimability by the user. (Also, pages for which Aperture has some sort of "Settings / Visit Page / Announce Site" pull-down button as it does for every MobileMe Gallery -- that's just being consistent.)
OR...
I want iWeb's Media Browser to let me select and drag into iWeb the contents of specific Aperture Projects and/or Albums, but with all Caption, Date, and other metadata for the selected images included, AND (if I so choose) at their FULL resolution -- rather than only at their currently-designated Preview size, which is now the case.
*Whichever way you describe it...*
I'm not really asking for anything all that new, just for some long-overdue integration between the already-existing photo-publishing abilities of Aperture, iWeb, and MobileMe. But before I start submitting more pages of "isn't this obvious?" input to their respective Feedback sites, I'd love to get anyone's thoughts, reactions, or best of all, suggestions as to how to at least partially achieve, the kind of Aperture-based photo publishing & sharing sites I'm still hoping to create.
Many thanks (if only for reading this far!),

Many thanks to both David and Bob for the above posts -- it's just nice to know I'm not alone in this frustration.
Sometimes I desperately wish Apple would appoint a CAO (Cross-Application Ombudsman), a "Minister for Inter-Application Affairs", someone whose only job was to track the functions and features in different Apple apps, to correlate that understanding with relevant user input from a dedicated AppleWorkflows Feedback page, and whose mandate was to then:
a) make sure that the interface of each app behaved in a consistent and predictable manner (so that, for example, Option-clicking a disclosure triangle in a Viewer window list of video filters in FinalCut had the same functionality as Option-clicking a disclosure triangle in a Finder window list of folders and sub-folders -- which it currently DOES NOT);
and
b) - most importantly - make sure the individual apps talked to each fluently and interacted in logical, productive ways (the subject of this thread being a prime example of where that's NOT happening).
This person would have the authority to force the programmers working on different apps to actually talk to each other BEFORE new versions get released; to imagine intelligent, creative ways in which the different apps should interact-- and then require the programmers to implement those scenarios. Essentially, the CAO's only reason for coming to work each day would be to oversee the conception, development and implementation of cross-app workflows which benefit and free up (rather than block and frustrate) the multi-Apple-apps user.
The key is that this person (or persons) would have to be given some real power -- not just to recommend, but in many cases to actually require. (For instance, this person would long ago have required the Aperture team to release a free update which no longer published anything to a "homepage.mac" URL. All together now: "Duh".)
And, as mentioned above, they would have their own separate and well-publicized AppleWorkflows Feedback Page (plus a dedicated public discussion forum as well?), to which users would be actively encouraged to submit their ideas on Inter-App problems and possibilities.
Call me crazy -- but that's my dream, and I ain't givin' it up.

Can I get rid of the MobileMe sync icon in Mountain Lion?

I recently set up a new MacBook Pro by using setup assistant to restore from a Time Machine backup of an old Snow Leopard machine. In general it's worked fine, but I still seem to have the old MobileMe sync icon in the menu bar, and as far as I can work out it's now totally functionless. MobileMe no longer exists, and there's no longer any MobileMe preferences screen to turn it off. Clicking on it just shows a message saying 'no devices syncing'. Does it serve any useful purpose in Mountain Lion, and if not, how can I get rid of it?

Does nothing at all now.

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.

Problems with mobileme syncing ...

Hi everyone. I'm having massive problems with mobileme sync with my iphone, my macbook and MacPC G5. Essentially I want the iphone contacts and calender data to overwrite anything on laptop and pc but I keep getting message that contacts couldn't be synced due to inconsistent data. Despite me overriding it. I'm not sure how I go about confirming that the computers data is valid and actually whether I want to because its the iphone data I want. Then despite saying its synced calenders its not updating on my macbook or PC ... any suggestions gratefully received. Its doing my head in! Oh I'm on Leopard OS.

Hi Chris, Thanks for the advice, I haven't tried that yet. Will do so and pray that it will work. This however doesn't solve the problem of appointments I'm putting on my iphone not updating on PC and laptop - they do however update on mobile me cloud! Any advice greatly appreciated!

Aperture isn't syncing to iPhone in chronological order

I just moved from iPhoto 09 to Aperture, and when I synced my iPhone with Aperture for the first time, Aperture isn't syncing to iPhone in chronological order like it did in iPhoto. All my images, albums, etc. are sorted by image date in Aperture, but there doesn't appear to be any rhyme or reason as to how iTunes/Aperture sync to my iPhone 3G. I'd like to be able to scroll down to my newest photos on the iPhone like I did when I synced with iPhoto 09. Anything I need to do differently? Thanks.

This has been discussed on the iPhone forum. The best way to "fix it" is change the album sort in aperture to custom (drop down menu). This seems to fix it.

Aperture with Mobileme

I have uploaded pictures from within Aperture to Mobileme and have had no problems getting them there. The problem is the picture Size, they are coming in at about 250k every photo with some going to 300k. This may not be a problem for fast broadband, however we live in a very slow broadband Rural Area. I need pictures at about 60 - 100 k max but i cant find the settings in Aperture or Mobileme. I can see the Email size in aperture but no picture Export settings. Can anybody help me with this problem.

Hi, as I stated in another post, I am curious to hear the answer to this question. MobileMe publish function doesn't have any controls for size and compression, unless I'm missing something.
I have to figure out another way -- publishing to MobileMe using the normal web export function. Suggestions?

'MobileMe / Sync Now' menu bar item

A MobileMe / Sync Now icon has appeared on my menu bar in Finder (2 semicircular clockwise arrows), which I am unable to remove. I cannot see a check box in System Preferences>MobileMe giving me the option to show / remove this icon. Is there another way of doing this?

Launch iSync and open its preferences. You should see an option to "Show status in menu bar". You can also often remove items from the right side of the menu bar by doing a command-drag.

"This password is different" Issue with MobileMe Syncing

Hi all,
I am getting an issue on two of my Mac's at the moment, which are both MobileMe sync'd (Contacts, Calendar and recently, Bookmarks) which is that saved passwords are no longer being pre-filled and when i enter the password it states "This password is different. Would you like to replace the saved password with this one?" even though the password is correct and the one that is stored.
It's obviously something that has happened when i turned Bookmark sync on, but I don't know what, not how to undo it. Obviously I have taken Bookmark sync off now, but it hasn't rectified the issue.
Any help welcome.
Regards
Bill

O.K., I'm not a computer guy so I don't know why this caused it, but I found out what my problem was and maybe this will help. I had loaded a plug in for a school site that the only way to get it to run was to do a "Get info" on the safari app and check "Open Using Rosetta." The plug in ran fine and I forgot about it. I finally went back and unchecked that box and now my passwords/usernames are working fine after about a week of frustration.
Good Luck,

MobileMe sync problem

After upgrading to Leopard on a Macbook can't seem to enable MobileMe syncing.
I have entered my account info into System Preferences->MobileMe and can see my Account Status info, iDisk usage, etc.
But if I check the "Synchronize with MobileMe" button in System Preferences->MobileMe->Sync, the schedule pulldown and the checkboxes below of Bookmarks/Calendars/Contacts remain grayed out. And if I click anywhere else in the window after checking the "Synchronize with MobileMe" button, the button becomes unchecked.
?

Hi,
You may need to click the Advanced button and Reset Sync Data but proceed with caution unless you are confident either MobileMe or your Mac contains the latest data to sync from or to. It's worth keeping a back up of your current contacts, bookmarks, calendars and such before attempting to reset sync.
Alternatively, consider opening a live chat with support, go to http://www.apple.com/support/mobileme/ click on Synching with Mobile Me > Troubleshooting MobileMe Sync issues > Chat Now.

Push mobileme syncing in one direction only?

I have just inherited an iPhone 3G from a son who has upgraded to the new iPhone. I am having problems with the mobileme syncing. It only seems to push in one direction! Entries to iCal made on my MacBook and pushed to my iPhone but entries to iCal made on my iPhone are NOT pushed to my MacBook.
any suggestions? thanks
Ron Bailey

Acros-Krik
I did my reset and it seems to have speeded up the 3G iPhone somewhat but not cured these syncing anomalies.
I am syncing three way
Mobileme
MacBook iCal
iPhone iCal.
I have sent test diary dates from each source
Mobileme and iCal are playing nicely but the iPhone is sulking and won't receive or send diary events.
In my iPhone my Systems Prefs are...
Accounts: mobileme
Fetch new data: Push
my email on my iPhone is working well with email Mobileme and email on the MacBook is also working well with Mobileme.
curiouser and curiouser.

Migrated to iCloud, MobileMe sync menulet still there

how can I remove the now unusable MobileMe sync menulet from the menubar?

Didn't know that!
Thanks! Anyhow, disappeared somehow before. But your answer could be helpful sometimes....

Missing calendars on one of my MobileMe Synced computers.

I'm using MobileMe Sync to sync calendar data between Work & home iMac, Laptop and iPhone. All of my calendars that I am syncing show up except on my laptop. 3 of 5 calendars show-up and are syncing. 2 are missing from the laptop.
I have reset the sync data, unregistered and registered the laptop, replaced data on the laptop with MobileMe, still the calendars do not show up.
I'm running 10.5.7 on all the computers. Any suggestions?

This has just started to happen to me as well.
On my iMac, Macbook Pro and iPod Touch I have just noticed that I have complete calendars missing. However when I check on the mobile me web account, the missing calendars are still showing there but I can not get them to resync.
A completely missing calendar is easy to spot, and not good at all. I'm also really worried that I have individual calendar entries missing as well which will be impossible to notice
Anyone any idea's what's going on or how to restore these calendars.
