Can't modify "My Photos" template page

Hi
There has to be a simple solution to this: the white "My Photos" template page has 3 pictures across in a row. I can't edit them at all, i.e. can't replace the template's images with my own. If you click on one of the 3 default images, all 3 are selected (indicated by a blue frame) but that's it. Can't change a thing. How do I get rid of them so i can place my own?

You get rid of them by dragging other photos onto
them. They are merely place holders to show you
where the photos go. If you have used iPhoto to
arrange the photos you want to use into an album, you
can just drag the album to them. You should see a
blue line that encompasses all the photos show up.
When you do, let go of the album or the photos.
If you use iPhoto, an easy way to do this is to use
the Media Browser (there's a button for it at the
bottom of the iWeb window) to locate the pictures you
want to use.
I did that and if the picture you want to replace the placeholder picture with is smaller, you can still see the dummy photo under it. How do you eliminate that? Also, when I drag a bunch of photos to the page, when I publish the page and click on the start slideshow button, the only images that play are the dummy images. What's with that?

Can 'SUBSCRIBE' be removed from photo template pages in iWeb??

I am using photo template pages on my website (designed in iWeb 08). My site is an artist portfolio site so the photo template pages work well for dealing with all the art images I am posting.
One problem: there is a subscribe button on my pages which lets people subscribe to my iPhoto library. I cannot figure out how to remove it.
Any ideas on this?
Thanks!
Christine

Click on the Inspector at the bottom of your photo page, then click on the Photos Inspector (just to the left of RSS).
Next click on the Photos button, then uncheck "Allow visitors to subscribe".
The Subscribe button will disappear from your page.

Problem adding photos to a photo template page

I am using iWeb 3.0.4. After selecting a Photo template page I tried to drag an iPhoto event from Media sidebar that has 32 photos in it to the photo place holder on the page. Only 9 of the photos were transferred. Trying to drag any other photos, even a single photo, caused a text box with the name of the photo in it to be placed on the page and the Inspector window to open with the Link tab active.
Does anyone have any ideas on why or what to do?

Your library is damaged and my not be able to be totally recovered, i.e. recover albums, slideshows, etc. along with the photos.
If the original files for your photos are inside the library package (even if iPhoto can't display them) the following should create a new library with all of your photos.
Start over from scratch with new library
Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
1. Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
2. Open the library package like this.
Click to view full size
3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
4. Drag the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
Click to view full size
This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects. Check it out carefully to see if all of your photos are represented in it.
Your current library will still be available for further fix attempts.

Photo template pages

When I selected a photo template page, I got 4 slots for pictures. Does that mean I can only, actually, have 4 photos? I can't seem to grab it to duplicate it nor find a place to simply increase the pictures to 6 or 10 or whatever.
Should I just skip that template and use a blank page and perhaps drop in a photo album from iPhoto? I mean, it seems silly to think that Apple has only a page for 4 photos.

Actually you can drop in up to 99 photos into the photo template area. Or you can drop in a few at a time. The template will automatically expand as you drop more photos in. Just drag your photos over the thumbnail area and you will see the template box highlight in blue and your cursor will turn into a green "+" sign. Then let go of your photos and they will be added to the thumbnails!
And yes, you can also use iPhoto and select up to 99 photos and then click on the iWeb button and select "photo page". That will work, too!

How can I print multiple photos per page? It was simple in earlier versions of iPhoto.

How can I print multiple photos per page? It was simple in earlier versions of iPhoto.

Do you want to print several different photos per page or multiples of the same photo?
If you want to print several different photos,select them all at once and press command-P for "Print". Pick the Custom Layout and adjust the photo size suitably.
If you want multiples of the same photo, duplicate the photo several times and select all copies at once, then press command-P.

How can I modify the Contacts Template to display additional fields with out selecting "add field" everytime?

How can I modify the contacts template in either iCloud, my iPhone, or my iPad to display additional fields that I always use ... example: How can I get Job Title to always be a fillable field with out selecting "add field" everytime?

Let the HairSalon implement the java.lang.Comparable interface. You'll need to write code for
public int compareTo(Object o1, Object o2)
The compare method would cast the Objects to HairSalons and return the difference in price.
Then use java.util.Arrays.sort(Object []);

Can see only one photo per page. How to revert to multiple images per page?

First noticed on my iMac and now on my Macbook (10.4.9)--I'm no longer seeing a month's worth of photos on a single page. Only one photo per page, sometimes with miniature ones in the top border. I thought it was simply an inadvertent click on by part and easily corrected. But all attempts on both computers and reading of Help index haven't led to restoration of an entire page of photos and elimination of the annoyance. I'm wondering now if something I downloaded might have altered iPhoto program itself, making it impossible to view large numbers of photos at the same time. Any suggestions appreciated.

Cap,
This view, with the one photo big and the thumbnail strip across the top, is what happens when you double-click a photo with "Edit in: Main Window" set in the Preferences. There should be a button visible that says either Done or Return, to exit edit mode and return you to the library. If you still see only one photo, use the size slider in the lower right corner to reduce the photo size and get more thumbnails on the page.
If, for some reason, you can't exit the edit mode, you may have a corrupt preference file. Quit iPhoto. Use the Finder to navigate to Macintosh HD/ Users/ (your user name)/ Library/ Preferences/ com.apple.iPhoto.plist and move that file to the Trash. Launch iPhoto, and you should be returned to the main viewing mode. You'll have to go in the Preferences and reset them to your liking.
Regards.

How can i modifying my flash template using flash software?

like changing text pictures...in an existing template ..i do
have flash but how can i use it?

If your template requires flash to modify, then you are going
to need to learn some basic flash functions to modify it. There is
no easy or fast way to modify a flash template, other than learning
some flash itself.

I can't modify synced photos or album on my iPod touch 5

I can't delete synced photos or synced albums from my iPod. I can't add mobile photos to my synced photos or synced album on my iPod either. I synced photos from my computer to my iPod. I threw away my old computer when I bought a Macbook Pro. I want to delete my previously synced photos from my old computer. How can I unsynced the photos now? Can I ask Apple to allow synced photos to be deleted from the iPod? Can I also ask Apple to allow me to add more photos on my iPod to the album of synced photos?

Apple has not said why they do not allow deleting synced photos/albums directly from the iPod. You either have to unsync them or use a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView.
You can do this and just not copy the synced photos to the computer via a third-party program

How can I print more photos per page?

Hi
I have an HP Photosmart printer
When I send an email with a photo attachment to my eprinter it prints the photo 1/4 of an A4 page for each photo. This is ok, and great quality, but it means i'm using a while peice of photo paper for each photo. Even if i flip the paper and reuse it I'm still only utilising 1/2 the A4 page leaving 1/2 wasted. I have two important question.
1. Is it possible to set the printer up to prlint a photo at full a4 size?
2. Is it piossible for the printer to print 4 photos per a4 page?
Thanks in advance.
Henry

Hello theatty,
If you are using the ePrint service to print photos here is what you need to know. ePrint settings can be changed by logging into ePrintCenter, and selecting print options on the left side of the ePrint panel. Here you will find settings for color options and paper size. Print options only apply to documents not photos. Here is the answer for question 1 Photo files will always be printed in 4x6. Here is the answer for question 2 currently there are no ePrint options to print multiple photos on 1 page.

How can I modify supplied WP template & keep the changeable fields eg date

Sorry couldn't find any details on this. If I use one of the supplied 'letter' templates - it includes a date field which is created when I create document. If I modify the rest of this template and then save it as a template - I lose this automatic date insertion facility.
Also is there a method of automatically inserting the document name into the 'insert filename' field when the file is saved?
Has anybody written a guide on advanced template design?

Hello fruhulda
It seems that the OP is facing a behaviour which was described several times.
In some Apple delivered templates, is a date field which grabs the current date when we create a new document.
This date remains as is whe we re-open the saved document some days after.
If we create a template, we may insert a date and ask it to update when re-opening the document.
If we save such a document as a template, it will apply the creation setting so, when we use it to create a document the date of this new document will continue to change on opening which is annoying.
Getting the behaviour of the Apple delivered template requires a bit of surgery in the Index.xml file of the custom template.
This trick was described several times in a Pages forum.
A quick search with the keystring *_template AND date AND index.xml_* brought the dedicated messages to the surface (of course I enlarged the time range to search to All).

How can I modify the about:config page to automatically install/allow a new addon that I dropped in the profile folder?

We are pushing policy to create an add-on for our workstations in our labs. It is the click once .net assistant, and when we push the folder, prefs.js, and config.ini with policy the add on works, but FFx comes up with the 'allow installation' tab every time. Is there a way to enable/install the addon without that page coming up?
We work in a 'frozen' environment (Faronics DeepFreeze), so using policy for fixes like this is nice, but we are hoping to clean it up so we don't see that allow installation tab.
Thanks for the help!

I can't modify a photo viewer AS3 file

I found a photo viewer tutorial that fascinates me, and the
author allows use and modification. I like the way it looks except
for the 10 buttons (which I believe are present via XML). I need
tips on how I should go about replacing the buttons with a
scrolling thumbnails movie clip I have. Thus, I will need to assure
that the image sizes of the gallery coincide with the positioning
of my scrolling thumbnails because my thumbnails are 100x100.
I believe the code was created dynamically based on the
number of items loaded from the xml file (10), and it centers to
the top of the stage.
yours sincerely

Unlock the lock in that window & change it to Read & Write, assuming this file is on your hard drive.
