Change Photo Album Thumbnail

Hello Everyone,
I am sorry if someone asked this question before but I couldn't find it even after spending too much time. Anyways, I am a new iPhone user and have created some picture folders using iTunes.
What I understood after reading some articles that the thumbnail used the last picture uploaded into the folder. I amy be wrong but is there any way I can assign picture from within the folder instead of system assigns it's own.
Thanks.

I have a Mac and use Apple's iPhoto application for storing and managing my photos with selected iPhoto albums transferred to my iPhone.
The first photo available in the iPhoto's album transferred to my iPhone is the photo icon or thumbnail for the album on my iPhone.
Since you are selecting a folder or folders that contain photos to be transferred to your iPhone, is it the first or last photo available in the folder which is assigned as the photo icon or thumbnail for the album on the iPhone?
Regardless, this cannot be changed on or from the iPhone. If it is the last photo file available in the folder that contains the photos, you need to place the photo file that you want as the photo icon or thumbnail for the album as the last photo in the folder on your computer, etc.

Changing Photo Album Frame Size

I am having my first attempt at designing our business web page with IWEB. In reference to the My Albums Index page, the frame styles all seem to only suit landscape style photos. All our photos are portrait layout, and so they appear within the album frame with the top and bottom missing. I cannot see how to change this, without changing the photo format, which I would rather not do. Please help.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. I don't know how to change the frame size in the album layout but you might consider using either SimpleViewer for Flash Album Exporter plugins for iPhoto which create flash based slideshows/galleries. This demo page has some examples of them. They appear to handle portrait oriented photos well. Instructions on how to embed them in an iWeb page is included.
There is one portrait oriented photo in each example.

ICab - HomePage Photo Albums/Slideshows

I've been trying iCab recently and have encountered a problem with HomePage albums and slideshows. (No problems in WaMCom and IE.)
iCab support replies have been helpful but produced no solutions.
Clicking on a HomePage photo album thumbnail opens the slideshow window but no picture loads, the activity wheel just spins. The browser then 'half stalls': windows can be closed and menus are available but no page can be loaded via link or URL. This happens using all identities.
However if I click on 'Start Slideshow' that works OK with identity set to iCab, Firefox or Safari. But as Opera or IE the slide show starts, but with no picture, just a tiny frame where the pic should be.
Broadband, no firewall. iCab memory set to 75000.
Any thoughts, please?
Michael

Great photos!
The slideshow works with iCab 3 (OS X and Classic), and iCab 2.9 (using Classic).
Clicking thumbnails works with iCab3 (OS X) and iCab 2.9 in Classic, BUT clicking thumbnails doesn't work with iCab 3 using Classic. (I'm not booting into OS 9 to check this out;-) This was with iCab using the default preferences.
I'll double-check this in the morning with the non-public iCab ß423. If it still doesn't work, I'll email Alex. It's probably JavaScript related, but I believe the InScript engine has been updated since the last public beta, so I'll have to check that out first.
I'll post back.

Photo album - text change

Greetings.
I am making a website and i want to put a photo album in it. But the website is in czech language and texts in photo view are english (like Back to album, Download etc.).
I published the website into folder and found in Scripts-Widgets-DetailView a file called localizedStrings.js. I changed some text and now it is showing what i want (changed Download into Stánhout - yes i want it like this). But i dont want to change it everytime i update the album.
So, my question is: Can i change it directly in iWeb?
Many thanks for your help. (sorry for my bad english)

you can change the text in two ways:
1) because there is no localization for czech language so localiztion fall back to enlish by deault, so you need to edit localizedStrings.js in english lproj folder. to get to it:
a) switch to finder... hit command+shift+g key... then copy&paste the following... then hit return key:
/Applications/iWeb.app/Contents/Resources/Widgets/DetailView.iwdgt/en.lproj/
b) duplicate localizedStrings.js file for back up.
c) edit the localizedStrings.js file to what you like.
after that iweb will generates the code as you put in localizedStrings.js file.
2) you can use javascript to change anything in iweb widgets with html snippet
have a look:
http://temp.cyclosaurus.com/revolving/keyImageAlbums/Pages/PhotosFFWebkitShadow. html
click on any thumbnail.
both methods do not require any post editing.
you will need to change all the text in three widgets: header controls, detail view and footer controls widgets.

Captions under thumbnails in photo album

Hi,
I've been trying all sorts of things to get a simple caption
under each thumbnail in a photo album. The page is on:
http://www.georgeglazer.com/globes/table20/table20inv/table20inv.html
This is the code for the thumbnail that I have tried to make
work. The thumbnails all display and sort fine. But no captions
appear:
<div id="thumbnails" spry:region="dsInventory">
<div spry:repeat="dsInventory"
onclick="dsInventory.setCurrentRow('{ds_RowID}')" style="height:
130px; width: 100px;">
<img src="{tn}" alt="{title}" name="tn{ds_RowID}"
id="tn{ds_RowID}" style="left: 0px; right: 0px; height: 100%;
width: 100%;" />
<p class="caption" style="width: 100px;"><span
class="whitetext">{@maker}<br
/>${@price}</span></p>
</div>
<p class="ClearAll"></p>
</div>
Among the things I have tried that did not work are:
1. Adding id="{ds_RowID}" to the <p> tag.
2. Putting a spry:detailregion="dsInventory" div around the
caption text.
3. Using {maker} and {price} instead of {@maker} and
{@price}.
4. Changing the height in the spry:repeat tag to something
larger than 130px, but that just distorted the thumbnails (which
are exactly 130px each).
Any help is welcome!
Thanks,
Helen

Kin,
Actually, I had omitted the @ signs originally, and it didn't
work either way, but thanks for explaining that. I looked at the
CSS for the div containing the thumbnail, and there's nothing
limiting height (not specifically, anyway).
Here is the CSS for the div containing the thumbnail:
#thumbnails {
clear: both;
margin: 5px auto;
#thumbnails div {
position: relative;
float: left;
margin: 4px;
padding: 0;
display:inline;
#thumbnails img {
height: auto;
width: auto;
position: absolute; }
...and for the div that contains the thumbnail div:
#previews {
border-top: solid 1px #404040;
border-right: solid 1px #404040;
border-bottom: solid 1px #3a3a3a;
border-left: solid 1px #404040;
padding: 5px;
margin-bottom: 5px; margin-right: 5px;
float: left;
I do have the overall size of the preview pane specified
(style="width: 370px; height: 590px;") but that should be more than
enough room for 5 photos with 2-line captions. Is it the relative
or absolute positioning that may be the culprit?
--Helen
PS Let me assure V1Fusion that I did read everything
previously posted in this forum about photo album captions prior to
posting my question -- they all addressed the main image but not
the thumbnail, nevertheless, I tried various things suggested in
those posts before giving up figuring it out myself...

Cannot Create Albums: Clicking on Photo in New Album Changes Photo

This is really strange.
When I import photos from a USB device the import seems to work O.K but if I create a new album when I click on any of the photos in the album, the photo is changed to a different photo from my library. This occurs even if I create an album of old photos. iPhoto seems to randomly change photos into other photos when I click on them.
Any ideas?

Sounds like minor database corruption.
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.

Batch change photos in album to lower resolution

I want to burn about 500 photos in an iPhoto album to a CD with Toast. At full res, they would take four disks. I want to lower the resolution so they'll all fit on one disk. Can I batch change the album in iPhoto?

You can only reduce the quality of a file on export. So select the Album and go File -> Export and examine the options in the resulting dialogue.

IPad not displaying more than 44 thumbnails in Facebook photo albums

Hi All
Whenever I try and view a photo album in Facebook on the iPad it only shows me the 1st 44 thumbnails then after that I just get grey boxes. I can view the photo's if I click on the grey boxes but it is very annoying. It does this whether I use Safari, Graze or any of the 3rd party Facebook apps.
I have just updated to 3.22 and the problem is the same. Any advice welcome.
Thanks
David

Other people have experienced similar occurrences. Deleting Safari's cache and history (in settings) may help but the real problems seems to be because of the iPad's limited (256MB) of memory)

How do i change the title to my photo album:(ios7)

How do I change the name of the title for one of my photo albums in ios 7

When you set the podcast up in WordPress you must have entered a title; it's presumably there that you can change it, and then re-publish it, though I can't advise on WordPress.
One caveat, though: some podcast creation services derive the feed URL from the title: I don't know whether WordPress is one of them, but if it is you shouldn't change the title because if you change your feed URL withouth redirecting iTunes to a new feed in the proper manner you will lose control of your podcast.
The method of changing iTunes to a new feeed URL requires the old feed to be left in place with a special tag added to it (I don't know whether this is possible in Wordpress) - the method is detailed here:
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/podcast.html#move
However if the feed URL is not affected by changing the title then you can just go ahead and change it.

"All Photos" album order mixed up after restore (device change)

I recently had to back up and restore an iPhone 6 to a new iPhone 6.
I did a full backup to iTunes, then restored to the new iPhone 6 from that backup.
Everything was restored, including all photos... (I have iCloud Photo Library turned on)... EXCEPT in the "All Photos" default album on my phone, the photos are not in the usual date order. They are all mixed up, mostly in large consecutive chunks, but with some individual photos randomly dispersed. No pattern that I can see otherwise. It looks like: (Jan-Mar 2010)--(Apr 2013-Nov 2013)--(Apr-2010-Feb 2013)--(Dec 2013-Feb 2014)--(Apr 2014-Sep 2014)--(Feb 2015 to today). Something like that.
The "Photos" tab, where you see collections, years, etc, is in date order. On iCloud.com, it is in the right order in the "All Photos" album. However, it is in the *wrong* order on my iPad, where I also have iCloud Photo Library turned on.
What I have tried:
1) Turning off, then turning back on iCloud Photo Library beta.
2) Full erase and restore from iCloud
3) Full erase and restore from a new backup
One more option would be to try restoring from the backup I made before the new iPhone 6, but then I would lose changes since then (about 2 weeks), and I would rather try to avoid that.
Has anyone seen this before? Why is this happening, and what else can I try to fix the order? I saw another thread about out of order events, but this seems different.

I have noticed this as well. The actual dates in the meta data of the photos are correct, however they are displaying completely out of order in 'All Photos' in iOS and OSX Photos.

One thumbnail missing from a photo album on iPad 2

Hi,
I have an iPad2 (iOS5) and have a few photo albums on it. In one album, while the actual photo is there and visible, the thumbnail is missing. In its place is a gray box with a ? in it. Tap on that and the full image appears. Film strip also has the box with the ?. I'd like to get the thumbnail back. I've tried rebooting but that did nothing. Ideas? thanks!

You can only copy photos into albums that you've created directly on the iPad. If the albums were synced from your computer then the only way to add photos to them is to copy them into the folders on your computer and re-sync them - you can't add photos to synced albums directly on the iPad
