Captioning and Keywords NOT retained on download of photos from Web Gallery

I noticed that the CAPTIONING information for photos on a web gallery ARE viewable while on the web gallery page(clicking on info), but are NOT included if you choose to download the photo. Not seen in the photo on download by viewing EXIF info, or "get info" from the Finder, nor available if I reimported the downloaded photo back into iPhoto 8.
Am I missing something regarding the way to store information. I had uploaded a lot of photos with important information for family members downloading embedded in the captioning??
BTW, the keywords ALSO were not downloaded or retained.

Scott:
When published to a web gallery that information is not added to the file but to the slideshow files. The only time that info is written to the files is upon export with the checkbox selected to add Title and Keywords and Comments.
Even if the metadata is written to the files at the time they are imported into iPhoto, the files that get uploaded to the iDisk have that metadata stripped out of the file.
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.

  • Safari will not open or download pdf files from web?

    Safari will not open or downlaod pdf files from web? IS there a setting, or something else to do this?

    Open browser preferences
    ex Safari>Preferences>Extentions   and un-enable any ext that mabe interferring , ex divX
    or open Help> installed Plug-ins and remove Adobe Acrobat.
    if still a problem
    Quit Safari.
    In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, copy the text on the line below into the box that opens, and press return:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
    A Finder window will open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Desktop, leaving the window open.
    Launch Safari and test. Its settings will have reverted to what they were they first time you launched it. If it works as expected, recreate the settings and delete the item you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, quit Safari again and put the file you moved back where it was, overwriting the newer one created in its place.

  • Can someone download photos from web gallery?

    Can someone download individual photos from my web gallery? I am posting about 40 photos in the web gallery.I want people that visit to be able to download the photos they want. I tried it and it is set to download the entire album compressed. The visitors probably will only want 1 photo. Maybe there is a better application for this type of use.
    I am new to this and any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Yes, individual photos can be downloaded. Looks like you already have the Allow Downloading setting on since the entire album (compressed) is available.
    If a visitor clicks on any thumbnail in an album, and loads the corresponding screen-sized photo, each photo has a little toolbar that fades in at the bottom where a down-pointing arrow is the button to download the individual photo. This will be the (up to) 6 megapixel-sized photo and not the screen-sized one.

  • Downloading friends' photos from my gallery

    I've set up a web gallery which a few friends have uploaded photos to. Their images show up in iPhoto, but I'm wondering to what extent they are actually 'downloaded' to my computer? They don't show up in the events window so if I delete the web gallery do the photos disappear? If so how can I add them to my library permanently? Copy/paste doesn't seem to work. I've worked out I can export and reimport them, but I thought there might be a simpler way. Thanks.

    Of course it's that simple. Thanks Terence.

  • Just downloaded a photo from Shutterstock. Need to edit text.

    Dear Monika,

  • I have lost all my captioning and keywording for a large number of .dng and raw files on transfer to LR6 CC - any help!

    I have imported my old LR5 catalogue into LR6 CC but appear to have lost a lot of my captioning and keywording to a very large number of files which are either .dng or other raw formats. I am working on a Mac. Can somebody please help as I am very worried about losing vital information.
    Thanks!
    Gerry

    OK, I may have pinned this down to the problem, and it may not be LR6 related. Reimporting my LR5 catalogue shows that the information is there on files that are marked as missing from catalogue (i.e. marked '!'). These are missing because I have renamed them, and it would suggest that the renamed file is not linking with the old .xmp file. Do you know of a way I can link the renamed file with the old .xmp file? Would I have to laboriously go through all my .xmp files and rename them for instance?

    Not using any mouse pad, I have a very smooth desktop. But I just tried to use a sheet of A4 printing paper, but no result, the problem persisted.
    Someone on this forum suggested, that USB3 may interfere with the magic mouse.
    I have 2 LaCie HDD's about 70 cm away from the mouse, I use them on Thunderbolt. But in operation or not - the result is the same, the mouse plays up! Just now I was clicking the desktop and the mouse created a new folder!!
    Thanks for the advice, Bee
    Cheers, Gerd

  • In trying to download Firefox 4.0, it "paused" at 37% of the way and will not finish the download. Why?

    I could not open NY Times articles today because Firefox would not let me. I reported this twice. I received a window telling me to update Firefox ~~ and I'm trying to do this. As I said, Firefox download4.0.dmg paused and will not finish the download. It's been over 10 minutes and I don't know how to proceed.

    You see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden, so you need to hide the Menu bar to get the new appearance.<br />
    If you need to access the hidden Menu bar then press F10 or hold down the Alt key to make the Menu Bar appear temporarily.<br />
    You can place the Tab Bar on top.

    Hello, Thought I had just downloaded Mountain Lion butcannot find any evidence that it was installed. It is not showing as an icon anywhere and is not listed in downloads and is not listed under purchased apps. Have I just sat here for two hours watching a download that didn't happen? I do have a folder of incompatible software that's all.
    How do I know it has been installed?

    Hello and thanks. I downloaded the upgrade again after your reply to be sure and I believe all is operating smoothly now. Your reply gave me some confidence. I suspect I should not have clicked on a 'x' symbol soon after the download which may have accidentally deleted something before the download/installation process had been completed. Oops probably all my fault.  Birdie39

    I tried to download some photos from a corrupted CD and now every time I try to open iPhoto the frame pops up but nothing will load.  I just get the spinning color wheel.  Any ideas???

    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
    Regards
    TD
