Cannot publish album to web gallery, nor to iweb

today, I tried publishing an album to my web gallery and iphoto "quit unexpectedly" then (after the relaunch), I tried going to preferences, which caused it to quit again. nothing I do seems to resolve this (I've restarted, and have also tried deleting the prefs file - numerous times).
then I tried to send the album to iweb - and iweb "quit unexpectedly" as well. even worse, now iWeb won't even launch! (keep getting the "quit unexpectedly" error. (I've tried deleting the prefs file for iweb and iapps as well, to no avail.)
otherwise, iphoto works fine - it's just when trying to send to iweb, publishing to web gallery, or accessing the preferences that it freezes (and quits).
the last time I tried coordinating these apps (and publishing to my web gallery) was a month ago, and everything worked perfectly. could this be related to a bug in a recent software update?
can anyone help me figure out what's wrong? I'm terribly frustrated...
thanks!

Thanks for the link, I just installed the update and rebooted. Unfortunately, the problem persists!
iWeb does not launch at all - I get an 'opening' message, then the "quit unexpectedly" error message appears. here's first part of the report:

As for iPhoto, it launches and works okay unless I click "Web Gallery" or try to open Preferences. Here's the error report (similar to the one for iWeb):

Any other ideas? Thank you so much for your help.
(The irony here is that I used DreamWeaver/Photoshop/ftp upoaders to design and publish my previous sites and, as a new mom, thought I'd save time by taking advantage of Apple's seamless (albeit boxed) software to make a simple and easily-updatable photo site for my daughter. This was supposed to make my life easier! )

Cannot publish album into web gallery !

It keeps saying "An error occurred while publishing the album. Request to the server failed."

Mark:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try creating a new library, import a few photos and see if you can publish form it. If so, then your old library is damaged. If that's the case you can use iPhoto Library Manager to copy your photos and albums to the new library and keep the comments, keywords and titles intact.
If you can't publish from the new library either log into another account or boot into Safe Mode and try from there. Again, if it publishes OK your account is the culprit. It might be a damaged pref file from some other application that iPhoto interacts with. Here's one way to check that out:
Trouble Shooting Preferences
Go to HD/Users/Your_name/Library. Move the Preferences folder (in its entirety) to the Desktop and make a second copy of it so you have Copy A and B. Now try the the process again and determine if problem is fixed.
If the problem IS fixed, then go to the new Prefs folder that the OS will have created and open it up.
Open Copy B on the Desktop and select all of the items inside. Drag them into the open new library folder. When the Copy window comes up check the Apply to All check box and then click on the Don't Replace button as seen here. That will keep the new files created and bring back all of the others.
If the problem is NOT fixed, trash the new Prefs folder and move the intact Copy A folder back to the Library folder .

Reorder Albums in Web Gallery?

Is there a way to reorder an ALBUM in Web Gallery? In iPhoto you can change how the ALBUMS are ordered/shown (which ones come first). I can't seem to get it to work in Aperture.
Shouldn't Aperture get features before iPhoto?
thx

Well on top of that, I would like to be able to sort the iPhoto ones I have with the AP2 ones. As it goes now, the AP2 ones go to the top. I wish we could do it using iDisk or something.

IWeb cannot see my .Mac Web Gallery

Hello All,
I have some albums in my .mac Web Gallery. When trying to do an insert->.Mac Web Gallery, iWeb says "no albums or movies available", even though I do have stuff published.
Any ideas why could this happen?
Thanks a lot

I found that I cannot insert "protected" galleries. Simply allowing "Everyone" access to the gallery, publising, then giving iWeb a chance to catch up -- poof -- it shows and I can add the .Mac gallery.
After the fact I have gone back in and "protected" the gallery with no ill effects. Other than not seeing it on the insert .Mac gallery menu item again.

Arranging albums in Web Gallery

Can I change the order in which albums are arranged on my web gallery?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. As Larry pointed out we're stuck with the order that iPhoto gives us, the last published is last in line, i.e. chronological - ascending.
Do you Twango?
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. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Remove album from Web Gallery (not in Iphoto)

I have a album in my Web Gallery but it's not in my IPhoto. I am trying to remove it from Web Gallery but can not figure out how?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Go into iPhoto's Preferences/Web Gallery. If the gallery is listed then select it and hit the Stop Publishing button.
If the gallery is not listed then mount your iDisk and go to the iDisk/Sites/Web/_gallery folder. If you have more than one gallery you'll have to look inside each of the gallery folders (they are just numbered and hard identify which is which) to determine which is the gallery you want to delete. When you find it drag it to the trash.

Web Module: Works great, but is it possilble to publish an HTML web gallery that does not use thumbnails, but just displays all photos (one above another)?

It would be nice if a published web gallery did not require clicking or sliding in order to view a new picture. Is there a template that just puts up every image in the gallery, full-size, one above another? That's how I like my webpages - see, for example, www.sgrhoa.net/betz/150205/ .
Thanks!
Bill

The built-in templates do not do that. At a quick glance, none of the available templates from Adobe's site do that either.

Aperture 2.1 only loads 100 images per album to web gallery

The web gallery project on Aperture contains 199 images but only the first 100 loaded. What gives? I've loaded albums before from iPhoto and didn't seem to have this problem, or if I did I never noticed it.
Thanks,
Mike T.

Aperture 2.1.4 is unsupported on OS X Mavericks and there are known issues that have been reported here.
I think you can roll back to an older OS X version (Snow Leopard?) or pay the $79.00 to upgrade to Aperture 3.5.1.

Wrong number of photos listed for an album in Web Gallery

Howdy,
I've tried resynching my Web Galleries and it hasn't solved this problem. The number of photos listed for any particular Album appears wrong. For example, two albums contain 3 photos, but it says there are "4 photos." One with 14 photos says it has 22, and and another Album with 31 photos says it has 62. I can't think of a mathematical expression that describes the incorrect reporting.
However, the using the mouse to preview the Web Albums shows thumbnails of all of the correct photos, the slider in carosel mode shows the correct position, and everything appears to be working otherwiser perfectly.
Thanks!

This sounds like a problem that you can recreate by dragging photos to an weg gallery album WHILE the Web Gallery album is syncing to the web - try exporting on of the albums and I suspect you will get the 4 photos - If this is the case, The best way I have found to fix this is to export the photos, delete the web gallery, go to your iDisk (iDisk ==> web ==> sites ==> _gallery) and be sure it is gone (Deleting it there too if necessary) and then recreating the web gallery (you may want to move the photos to a local album for ease of finding them for the new gallery)
Web Galleries still have some issues

I'm logged in to Creative Cloud, have saved a web gallery within Lightroom, and am trying to publish my first web gallery. All seems to be going well until it looks like it's almost finished and I consistently get the same message, 'An error occurred sen

Am logged in to Creative Cloud, have saved a web gallery, and am trying to publish first web gallery. Consistently get the same message, 'An error occurred sending the file : connection to the server failed'. Can somebody help me to resolve this?

Firstly, have you entered the correct FTP settings as given by the host where you are uploading to?
Next, try using Export and then uploading via an external FTP program like Filezilla. FTP from Lightroom isn't as robust as a dedicated FTP program.

Can't delete albums from web gallery

How Can I delete an album from my web gallery, when the album icon isn't showing in bottom left side corner of my iphotos application??
When I upload the same album, it's duplicated next to the one i'm trying to delete. Now, I was able to delete the one I just uploaded, but not the original one.
Can somebody tell me how to solve this one????

Go to Finder/Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites folder, open the _gallery folder, and then you can delete what you want.

No .Mac Web Gallery visible in iWeb

I published a gallery with 3 albums in it and can see them in Safari. However, when I try to use Insert/.Mac Web Gallery, there is noting available to insert. How do I make the Gallery visible to iWeb. Also the .jpg files are low quality. Is there some way of publishing higher quality .jpg to the iGallery?
I'm now trying to use the Gallery since I have not been successful with publishing my web site onto .Mac with ~200 photos. There are also .avi files. Not sure if this is causing the trouble with publishing.

UPDATE:
It does appear as though it's an issue of security. If the Web Gallery is password protected, it won't show up in iWeb. I removed the password protection in iPhoto, and it showed up and I'm able to add it to iWeb. Now, it's not behaving quite like I thought it would, but that's another issue.

Web gallery use vs iWeb photo page

I really like the quick layout of the gallery. Would I be saving more iDisk space by using the Aperture Web gallery vs iWeb photo pages?? My guess is yes because I can control the size in page/detail and more when I save to my .mac. The only feature I would lose is the flow of navigation with the other iWeb pages.
My thought was to create a main photo page with iWeb and have a small snapshot to hyperlink to the homepage.mac gallery created with Aperture. This allows flexibility in adding/removing the galleries if space becomes an issue. I dont have much in iWeb so far and it takes a really long time to load as it is. I'd hate to bog down more with photo galleries.

hello, me100finn
quote: "The only feature I would lose is the flow of navigation with the other iWeb pages."
You can always manually make a link to the other web pages which is what I do.
Just a few more added features to Aperture Web Gallery and Web Journal like an advance option feature to view & change the CSS or source code (without going to GoLive or Dreamweaver) or something along the lines of "would you like to add a link to another url?" would be tasty.
quote: "My thought was to create a main photo page with iWeb and have a small snapshot to hyperlink to the homepage.mac gallery created with Aperture."
Yup, my thoughts too. Maybe version 2 (i hope). I'm making the site first in Aperture (the heavy lifting) and then making minor additions and tweaks in GoLive.
To do this add the image, select it after the export in a wysiwyg html editor and point it to the proper linked url.

Can't navigate using back button from web gallery linked to iweb page

I have a web gallery that I enabled as a hyperlink to my iweb site. When I go to the gallery from a web page, I don't have any problem navigating to the gallery to view photos, but I am unable to navigate back to the web page using the "back" button. Instead I have to relaunch my web page in Safari; otherwise I would be "stuck" on the gallery unable to navigate to other web pages.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Load the gallery in your browser and copy the URL.
Create a text or image link and in the "Link" inspector select it as an eternal link.
Paste the gallery URL into the box and check "Open link in new window".
This way, the gallery window can be opened and closed but your original webpage will remain.

Unable to publish album to MobileMe Gallery

When I try to publish my album on MobileMe, nothing happens.
You see that on the screen that it is "publishing", but afterwards nothing has happened.
I do not receive any error message what so ever.
Your advice is highly appreciated.

Have you tried making a new MM Gallery and use a different photo and publish? I have had a gallery be corrupt. I would make a new gallery, add one photo you haven't used before and try publishing.
If you login into mobileme.com and go to the gallery here, do you see anything? In your iDisk the Web folder is in there right? If not, then you will need to contact Apple support.
