Can I share my iPhoto book?

I created an Iphoto book for my twins' 12th birthday and ordered copies for each; however, my parents and other family members may want to view or order copies. . Any way I can share it with them on-line?

Create a PDF file of the book as follows:
1 - in the book mode type Command+P.  In the print window click on the PDF button and select Save as  PDF from the menu.
2- email the PDF file to those who might want to order a copy.
Another way to share the book is to create an iDVD video slideshow of it according to this tutorial: iP05 - Creating an iDVD Slideshow From an iPhoto Book and burn DVD video discs to distribute.  I do it with all the books I give away as gifts.  Lets the receipient view the book (with music) on their TV set rather than thumbing thru the book with family members.

    Purchase iLife 11 (includes iDVD) ON DISK.
    IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

  • Can i share an iPhoto library between 2 computers ???

    Can i share an iPhoto library between 2 computers, it I store my library on a AS drive connected to an AirPort Extrême Base Station ?

    on a AS drive
    Do you mean NAS drive? No.
    iPhoto needs to have the Library sitting on disk formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Users with the Library sitting on disks otherwise formatted regularly report issues including, but not limited to, importing, saving edits and sharing the photos.
    Will it be wireless? That's good for viewing but...
    A strong warning: If you're trying to edit the Library (that is, make albums, move photos around, keyword, make books or slideshows etc.) or edit individual photos in it via Wireless be very careful. Dropouts are a common fact of wireless networking, and should one occur while the app is writing to the database then your Library will be damaged. Simply, I would not do this with my Libraries.

    How can I share my itunes book with my tablet (non-Apple product)?

    If it's an ibook then you can't - they can currently only be read in the iBooks app on an iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch (there isn't even a Mac or PC reader for them).

  • How can i transfer a iphoto book created on one mac to another mac.

    how can i transfer an iphoto book created on one mac to another mac. i am aware of pdf saving but it doesn't help! need to see the iphoto book on other mac.
    and how can i view in slide-show double pages instead of single pages?
    anybody has an idea?

    Stephan:
    If you want to be able to view the book with iPhoto on the other Mac you'll have to copy the library containing the book to the other Mac. You won't be able to import that book into the other library.
    Make a duplicate copy of the library containing the book and rename the folder "Book Library". Open it with iPhoto and delete all of the files that are not in the book. Then copy the Book Library folder to the other Mac and open. You can also burn the Book Library folder to a CD as a way to archive the book in case you decide to order another copy at a later date. I create a separate library for each book I create and order and archive it to CD when I've ordered.

    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.

  • I am a Canadian staying in England for a few weeks.  How can I get an iPhoto Book printed win England and sent as a gift to an English relative? With my account, it seems that Apple only allows for my book to be printed in Canada.

    in the iPhoto preferences  change the print products country to the UK and give it a try - there may be some restirctions on billing but it has worked for some people

  • Can I send an iPhoto book to my parents as a PDF? I need their input before I order the ibook.

    Can I send an iPhoto book to my parents as a PDF? I need their input before I order the ibook.

    You can create a PDF preview of your book, see this link:
    iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040
    The PDF will be too large to email to your parents - copy it to a USB stick or burn it as CD or DVD and send it as a letter.  Or upload it to a server for download, your Dropbox, etc.

  • Can I share my iphoto pictures with AT

    Can I share my iphoto pictures with my AT&T Uverse tv?

    Yes, this is exactly how I use iPhoto on my system.
    You do need to update the permissions on the iPhoto directory after it's moved to the Shared folder. the default permissions will only permit your account to fully access the files, your wife's account will get errors or not see thumbnails correctly when accessing the pictures from iPhoto in her account.
    After moving the iPhoto Library into Shared (and with iPhoto closed), Get Info on the iPhoto Library folder and change the Others access to Read+Write. Let it apply to all enclosed folders, also. Then hold down the Option key while starting iPhoto and choose the Shared version of the folder as your Library. Repeat the iPhoto launch w/option key on the other account as well and each user will access the same set of pictures, albums, keywords, etc. Just make sure you don't open iPhoto from both accounts at the same time. Close iPhoto before walking away from the computer or letting the other person logon.

  • How can I share an iPhoto-created pdf on the web or via email???

    I design photobooks for clients in iPhoto and often use the Print feature to save a book file as a pdf that I can easily review as a final pass. Once or twice I've burned a book draft pdf to a CD and send it to a client for preliminary viewing, comment, and further development requests. That's slow, clunky, and expensive compared to being able to either posting the pdf somewhere on the web that my client can access or email them the pdf (which is usually much bigger than my Mac mail account permits).
    Can anyone tell me how I can turn my iPhoto books into a view-only file that I can easily share online with my clients? I'm also about to create a marketing web site for my little design studio and I think understanding this better will help me figure out how to post selected excerpts from the variety of iPhoto (and also Bookmaker) books I've designed and produced over the past year or so.
    thanks in advance for any help and ideas you can offer!

    ImagineThat:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. There is a 3rd party application, pdf-RecoverPro, that will let you lock the file to printing, changing, etc. You set two passwords, one to let the user view it and one to unlock the restricted features. Just provide the first password and send the file. You can try the demo version. It just saves one page in demo mode.

  • HT204655 How can I access a iPhoto book from time machine without it being modified by Photos?

    When I updated to Yosemite I didn't realize the ramifications for iPhoto (silly me). When I migrated my iPhoto library to Photos I have somehow lost a couple of iBooks I had created. I have a number of older iPhoto books under projects, just not the most recent ones. I have checked my other libraries and they are not there. I realized that Apple might have the book in their system from the print order I made a few weeks ago, which they did. And I was able to reorder the book from my invoice for the last order and with help from some very nice Apple support people. However they cannot migrate the book back to me. So now I need to try and find it so I don't have to recreate it. I think it must be in Time Machine somewhere but I am afraid if I find it and try to reinstall it, Yosemite will do something with it. I have noticed when I opened another book that Yosemite said the format was no longer available and reformatted it to another template. Help.

    So when I try to uodate iPhoto from my applications folder I am told to uplate IT from the App Store and when I go there I am told the updae is not available in Canada.
    You can no longer buy iPhoto from the appStore anywhere, and also not update it from the "Updates" tab of the AppStore. You can reinstall it, if it is showing among your Purchases at the App Store and associated with your AppleID.
    Sign into the AppStore look at the Purchases tab.  If you do not see iPhoto there, try to unhide your Purchases as described on this page:   Hide and unhide purchases in the Mac App Store - Apple Support
    If iPhoto shows on your Purchases tab, reinstall as described in this User Tip:
    Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS... | Apple Support Communities
    The main idea is to move the iPhoto app to the Trash, so Spotlight does not see it as installed, reload the AppStore, and then to try to download again from the App Store - from your Purchases tab, not from the main page, since you can neither buy iPhoto nor update it, but you can reinstall, if your AppleID is associated with it.
    You may need to unhide your Purchases, if you do not see iPhoto on the Purchases page when you sign into the AppStore with your AppleID:
    See this link:  Hide and unhide purchases in the Mac App Store - Apple Support

  • Can I share an iphoto library on a hard drive

    Hi,
    I want to share pictures between two macs at home. Rather than have the iphoto library on one of the computers I was wondering if it's possible to share an iphoto library from my TimeCapsule hard drive. I've tried this but each time I launch the library on the hard drive it opens the library file on my laptop.
    Any ideas/suggestions on how I can share an iphoto library on an external hard drive between computers?
    Thanks,
    Jason

    Why create one if what you really want to do is move the one you have?
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    Other than that, to move albums/rolls/events and pics plus accompanying metadata between libraries use iPhoto Library Manager

  • How can I share my iPhoto library with my wife's iPad?

    Is it possible to share my iPhoto library (Yosemite) with my wife's iPad? She doesn't have a separate mac, but she does have her own apple ID.

    No
    You can share selected photos using PhotoStream - you can not share the library
    Next year the Photos App for the Mac should be able to share the library on iCloud using iCloud photo library

  • How can I share my iPhoto Library over internet

    My friend and I want to share our iPhoto Library(size 5.19 GB and growing). We don't live together so we are not on the same network.
    We were really hoping we could do this with mobile me. This is what we thought we could do with mobileme(but later found out it's not possible). Not possible but this is what we want to do: *We thought we would be able sync our iphoto library. This way we could work on or off line, make changes in iphoto have it auto sync and when he went to iphoto he would see the changes I made and he could make changes and I would see them when I went to iphoto. No one would have to manually sync or have to remember to sync.* On Mobile Me the sync function doesn't do it with iphoto. Are you aware of a company, software, or service that would allow us to do this?
    Of if you don't know of a way we can have it sync then do you know of a service that we can store our library on and work from. The key would be to be able to work on the file while it's on their server at a reasonable fast speed. Doing it this way nothing would be physically stored on our computers. It would be stored on somoene else's server.
    *Below are our options we are aware of using mobile me*(We are looking for other options:
    We thought we could use mobile me to sync, but it doesn't sync iphoto. We could use idisk(in conjunction to or .mac account). We would upload the library to idisk, then when we wanted to use it we would download it to our computer make changes and upload it and the next person could do the same. The only problem is with it being so large it takes a very long time to upload to idisk/.mac account and up to now I haven't been able to get it up on .mac(I just got off the phone with mac and we tried everything and it the idisk sync just fails everytime.)Even if it did work it's not what we are looking for. The other option I am aware of would be to use *Back to My Mac*(also part of mobile me). This would entail both of us leaving our computers on(not in sleep mode) and we could log on to the other computer and grab what we want make changes and return it.
    If you have other ideas please suggest.

    YOu can share photos via web galleries but not the iPhoto library directly - and even if you were on the same network there is no ability to sync two iPhoto libraries
    As to ahving your iPhoto library on the internet - no to that too - even a wireless connection to the library does not work - too slow and too unreliable - putting it on the net is not possible unless someone comes up with a giant step that direction
    in addition to web galleries you can upload to your iDisk or to a third party service - Back to my Mac I guess would be a way - you would have to update yoru computer and your buddies doubling your work and increasing the time a lot more than that
