Drag multiple photos to create many blog entries at once?

I wanted to make many blog entries at once from some photos. This is trying to catch up with many entries at once, and make basically photo pages with one photo and more than just a caption (like you get with a photo page).
I did this by the usual method when I first tried iweb (try something, it works...). Then I noticed that it just assigned today's date to all the entries. I didn't want that, so I deleted all of them. Then I found out you could edit the dates...
Now, I want to recreate all those entries again, and I can't for the life of me repeat that initial 'try it, it works' of just making many blog entries all at the same time. I can't remember if it was a drag in, or what...
help!
Doesn't help that iweb goes to SBOD when I first open the media browser for 10 min...

Peter...
I have not tried this myself, so I'm not sure if this is what you did....but try this...
In iPhoto, select all the photos (Apple-click to select multiple photos) that you want to send to your blog pages. Then do you see the iWeb icon at the bottom of the iPhoto window there??? Click on it and select "publish to photoblog". See if this is what you were looking for...

    Try this general troubleshooting procedure:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete the contents the following folder: User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto

  • How can I drag multiple photos into a new iPhoto library from search box?

    I lost but found my list of photos that were in my iPhoto library. I am unable to drag more than one photo at a time from the search box into the new iPhoto library box. Am I doing something wrong or do I have to drag one at a time? (That would take hours.) Please help if you can!
    Thanks,
    Laure

    Roam,
    Thanks again. I know how to highlight and drag multiple photos or a list of files, but the only place I found my list was by going to Finder>File>Find then a dialogue box comes up. In the dialogue box I put in iPhoto and checked that then put in "kind" "is" "image" and "size" "is greater than" "30" KB. When I click search, the entire list from my library comes up but that is when I am unable to drag more than one file at a time. The box that comes up when I search isn't (at least I don't think it is) a "folder" as such. Any suggesttions?

  • Recovered missing photos, but created many duplicates, not showing in album

    I tried to clean my hard disk. It seemed that many of the same photos were saved in 'data' file, and an 'original' file, which I located in Pictures AND my computer. I felt they were duplicate files, not duplicate photos, and sent them to the trash-not yet emptied, and then copied one of the folders containing every photo on to an external drive.
    After I re-opened iPhoto, saw that many photos were missing, I did research and learned that I shouldn't tamper with 'Picture'. Since then...
    1. I have imported the photos back into the Library. Success--except that the gray boxes with dashed lines are still there for some photos and not others, and many of the photos have created duplicates.
    2. I ran 'duplicate annihilator', but I didn't feel like it didn't do the job.
    3. Then, I launched iPhoto with Command+Control, which I believe restores the old library, which is helpful--but now I have almost twice as many photos as I originally had.
    Even though, if the photos are restored, which they seem to be (gray boxes with dashed lines still there for some photos, but not all) the individual albums do not seem to be restored.
    Although tedious, I don't mind sifting through the photos and recreating the individual albums, but:
    -is there another way?
    -how can I be certain that all the photos have been restored?
    -do I delete the gray boxes?
    -what can I do with the album 'recovered photos'?
    I feel like I've done all the research, and everything possible to recover the photos, but I'm missing a link or two connecting all the dots.
    Thank you, in advance.

    HI Myrtle,
    You can start all over and import the photos you had saved to the external drive.
    Drag the iPhoto Library folder in your Pictures folder to the desktop.
    Launch iPhoto and at the message screen choose to create a new library.
    Once the new library is opened, go to File>add to library and navigate to the external and choose the folder of photos to import.
    The albums will not be restored this way as you are creating a new library. I really feel this is better for you than trying to undo all the duplicates and gray boxes you had.
    Once you are sure all your photos are imported you can delete the old library on the desktop or burn it to disk first just in case.

  • How can I drag multiple photos from iPhoto into a Word Document

    I'm creating a collage of photos for a friend and in order to get the photos to the right size and print them without trouble I need to drag all of the photos from a certain album in iPhoto into an empty word document. Is there a way to do this? If not, why not?

    It's best to drag one photo at a time from the open iPhoto window into the open Word document window.  Resize the photo.  Then drag the next one and resize.
    If you have iWork a better solution is to use Pages.  That way you can resize the drag the photos into any location on page, even overlapping other photos, whereas in Word it has to be on a separate line or small enought to fit two on a line. You can access the iPhoto Library from the Media Browser in Pages without iPhoto  having to be open.

  • Photos in text of blog entry do not port to main blog page

    I have posted before about the photos from my entry page disappearing when ported to my main blog page. I have yet to find a solution so I'm asking for help again.
    I'm am trapped using iWeb 1.1 until I find a solution. I use the Modern Template with modifications. Usually I delete the snowboarding surfer placeholder. Please note I'm not concerned that this photo doesn't port. I don't want it to. I do however need the photos that I have embedded via text wrap within my blog entry to port to the main blog page. They do not.
    I have tried keeping the snowboarder place holder and redoing entries with wrapped text, but my additional photos are still missing. I have checked the box in iWeb 2 that says show photos. My layouts conveted to iWeb 2 look perfect on the entry's page, and horrible with missing photos on the summary page.
    This problem is beyond frustrating. My blog can be seen here, however it is still the iWeb 1.1 format.
    http://web.mac.com/knittsings/iWeb/knittsings/knittsings/knittsings.html
    As you can see, almost all my entries have numerous photos. I want them to display on the main blog page.
    Am I missing something very basic? I have seen others with this same question but no one seems to have had any luck resolving this problem.
    Thanks,
    Kathryn

    And that's the way it should be.
    If you look at this page about navigation you'll see that the main navigation uses eternal links and the sub navigation internal ones....

  • Dragging multiple photos into albums

    iPhoto 5 seems to have stopped allowing me to select multiple photos and drag them into appropriate albums. I've tried deleting the "com.apple.iPhoto.plist" file from the preferences, but it hasn't worked for me. Anyone have an idea of how to fix this?

  • Different ways to create a blog entry

    I'm using iWeb '08. I have set up several blog pages and want to allow people to update them outside of iWeb. Is there a way to accomplish this?

    No. iWeb is required to make new entries (but not for comments of course).

  • Creating Wordpress blog entries with Safari 3 loses carriage returns

    Hi all,
    Ever since I started using Safari on Leopard, I've been losing all my carriage returns in my Wordpress entries. I don't know what's causing it, but Safari for Tiger, and Firefox 2.0.0.8 running on Tiger, Leopard, and Windows XP don't cause this to happen.
    Anyone have a clue as to why this is happening? The carriage returns are apparently getting erased somehow because where there should be a <p />, there's instead no space between the last period of a sentence and the first letter of the next.
    eg:
    This is the end of the line.This is the next line
    I'm not sure this is fixable by the users.

    Hi all,
    Same safari/wordpress problem here.
    And not the only one! (cookies, crashes)
    With the safari troubles I am now using camino more and more often. If it did copy formated text properly it would now be my first choice.
    However I do like safiris search/find a lot!!

  • How many photos are too many to import at once?

    My good ol' iPhoto 6.0.6  crashes these days when I try to import photos from my iPhone to my MacBook. I inadvertantly have built up to more than 4000+ photos on phone (at least 3000 already on iPhoto but I did not delete from phone) so trying to get most recent set imported (using 'only import non-duplicates). (And yes, will want to delete a good chunk off of phone once I know they are safely stored elsewhere, and backed up, so that iPhoto doesn't have to search and compare thousands at a time.)
    I suspect I am out of luck bc. I see that I already have 12 890 photos (38.GB) in iPhoto. Using OX 10.6.8, 1GB ram and have 156 GB available. Is my set-up too old/small to handle such a big import all at once? It seems to quit part way into the import and when I open iPhoto the next time there are files to be recovered. I wanted to upgrade to the newest iPhoto but I think my OS doesn't support it. I know I will have to upgrade my whole computer soon but had hoped among other things to get these photos sorted with what I have now.
    Any help gratefully appreciated.

    With 1 gig of Ram yes it will be very easy to overwhelm the import process.
    Use Image Capture (in your Applications Folder) to get the files from your phone to a folder on the desktop, then import from there in batches.

  • Photos on blogs entries

    I've successfully created many blog entries. I always use the standard new blog entry and put a photo in it. Twice, I have gone back after publishing and changed the photo on the blog entry page. After I publish though, the main blog page never updates with the new photo. As a result, two of my entry pages out of about a total of 30 have a different photo then what appears on the main blog page. Is there a way to correct this?

    The photo on a blog page is dropped into a placeholder. When you changed the photo you probably deleted it and dragged in a new one. By doing this you deleted the placeholder.
    Go to another "correct" blog page, highlight the photo in the placeholder, copy it and paste it to the page you are trying to repair. Now you have a placeholder and can drag a new photo in to replace the one that's there.

  • Adding a photo gallery to a blog page?

    I see the last queries about being able to do this are from 2006.  I'm wondering if it is any easier now.  I'm creating a website for a film series project.  I used a 'blog' template so I could easily manage about 20 separate films (without having scores of pages to deal with).  Right now each of those 'blog' pages has a large number of free floating photos (shots from the film).  They take too long to load.  I'm wondering if I could create a photo gallery instead, ON the blog entry page, that would contain the pics, and allow for fast loads?
    Just wondering how one might create a photo gallery on a 'blog' entry page.
    Ben

    Having looked at your site, I would say that you layout is very artistic and would be completely ruined by using a photos template.
    DPI doesn't realy come into it as this is used for print. iWeb does have image optimization but its better to turn it off and reduce the image to the dimensions (in px) that it will appear on the web page before dragging it into the app.
    If you want to maximise the SEO and make the pages more interesting for us humans, I would add descriptive captions to the images and put them in the spaces between the staggered image layout.
    If you are comtemplating designing for mobile devices, you need to use every trick in the book to to reduce file sizes and cut content to the bone.
    I have been using responsive designs for quite a while now and learned a lot of hard lessons along the way on what works and what doesn't on mobile devices. Some more examples HERE.
    iPads are big enough for a traditional website to work on them as long as you pay attention to making the links and other user controls finger sized. I did figure out a way to make an iPhone compatible site using iWeb if you are interested...
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/Mobile-iWeb.html
    I must admit that I detest Wordpress although there are some responsive desgns available now. I did a test with one of the free ones but its a total pain and there doesn't appear to be any plugins for HTML5, responsive media players. I had to figure this out all on my own. If you click the Blog button on this page you should get there.

  • Counting number of blog entries

    I was wondering if there was a way to count how many blog entries you have made. You know, just so you can easily say, this is my 100th post
    Thank you!

    Thank you so much Cyclosaurus!
    Much appreciated.
    I do have another question - is it possible using iWeb and the Movie template page to add comments to the movies - like you can for Blogs and Photos?

  • Lightroom 4 Keywording Multiple Photos

    I'm in library mode and trying to add the same series of keywords to a group of about 60 photos.  All these photos are highlighted at the bottom of my screen but one photo appears to be highlighted more brightly.  I've typed in a group of keywords in my sidebar and then clicked enter.  I thought that action should tag all 60 photos with the same keywords but it doesn't.  Only the brightly highlighted photo gets the keywords.  Surely there has to be a way to tag multiple photos with the same keywords all at once.  I've watched Cris Orwig's video on Adobe and am following the same steps he demonstrates but the keywords are only tagged to the one photo.  Am I missing something simple here?
    Thank you
    Mark

    I just reviewed http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-lightroom-5/adding-keywords/ in which Chris Orwig clearly shows adding keywords to multiple images in the filmstrip, NOT in the grid view.  Of course, MY Lightroom doesn't allow me to add keywords to multiple images using the method shown in this video.  And just an added note that this is the EXACT same video shown under the label "learn-lightroom-4/adding-keywords/ so I don't know if this could be done in v4 but not in v5 and someone just screwed up by reusing the same video.....  Thanks Jim Wilde and everyone else for your help.  I was starting to pull my hair out. 

  • IWeb losing, and then corrupting photos in Blog entries

    I have an odd problem, and really need some help!
    I've been posting blog entries with pictures at the end of the text for many months now (over 150 entries), and only recently have run across this problem. After creating a new blog entry, I post the site, and after the site is published, will go to the site and see that the picture in the blog index is fine, but when anyone visits the page of that blog entry, the pictures at the end of the text are gone, and the picture at the start of the blog has a box with an X in it. When I go back into iWeb, the file will either be fine, or will have the X and all of my past posts will have it as well. When I try to re-drag the picture in, it is saying the picture is corrupt. Yet somehow, the next day on the web, the pictures magically appear and all seems fine (after trying to republish several times). This has happened for the past week or so, but seems to be worse as of late.
    I don't know if this is because of occassional connection outages (which seem to happen fairly often) and pictures not completely loading, even though iWeb thinks they are, or if this is from problems on the .mac servers, or problems on my computer with iWeb. I've tried quitting and rebooting, which worked the first time or two that this happened, but no longer helps.
    It's one thing if iWeb is not working correctly, but if this is now corrupting my photos in iPhoto, this is a serious defect! Apple, PLEASE make the next version more stable - we're I just getting started and seeing this, I would have dumped iWeb, but after 4 months and many many entries, it is not easy to move this to a TypePad or other site.
    iMac 24"   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   MacBook Pro, 5.5G iPod Video, G4 Titanium Powerbook

    I'm having this same problem. Is this a known bug?
    On my iWeb site, the pictures in my blog keeping getting "corrupted" and are unusable, and the only way I can get iWeb to accet them again is to export them from iPhoto, do a save-as, and re-import them into iPhoto.
    Please tell me there is some sort of fix.
