Facebook comments in Aperture 3?

I recall, i think back when i used iPhoto, that i could view comments that Facebook users made on pictures I posted from iPhoto to Facebook. Aperture doesn't seem to have this functionality. Is it hiding in there somewhere?
Cheers,
Jim

Great! Thanks Gawky! Makes perfect sense but was a bit harder to find than in iPhoto. Makes sense I guess because it's a more 'serious' tool but can't help but think it would be popular if a) was easier to find and b) you could make comments within Aperture and have them publish to FB without having to go to the browser.
Cheers,
Jim

Why are my photos not as sharp when I import them into Facebook from the Aperture Projects file, compared to when I 'share' them with Facebook within the Aperture programme? There is a noticeable difference and has been spoiling my photos for some time.

Hi all, I take wildlife photos (mostly birds) as a hobby, and have become frustrated with the quality of my photos recently when shared online, particularly Facebook.
I started blaming my camera ( a Canon 7D) as I changed it a few months ago from a Canon 550D, and I soon noticed that the images were not as good. Then I realised it was when I started using Aperture.
I started by using the 'share' option within Aperture but I soon realised that then I have no control over the creation of an album, and the photos start appearing on facebook before I have finished uploading them and given them captions. Plus if I subsequently move them or export them to my back up drive then they disappear from Facebook!
So I started creating albums within Facebook and then importing the photos from the aperture projects file on my computer. Because they are imported I can then delete or move the aperture file and the photos stay on facebook. Otherwise my macbook was becoming completely full.
However to test my theory I have today uploaded the same photo edited in Aperture stored in the same projects folder using the two different methods described above, and there is a very distinct difference between the quality of the two images. The shared ones are very much sharper than the imported ones.
I am a computer novice and don't know how to check what the quality settings are, or how to adjust anything to improve the way the photos go into facebook. I do have a manual but I just cant understand it :-(
I have tried a free sample of Lightroom 5 and my photos look amazing, there is such a difference, but I don't want to give up with Aperture unless the problem really can't be solved.
Sorry for such a long first post, I would be very very grateful for any help you can give me!
Regards
Susan

Generally I would not use Facebook for sharing any photos, it compresses the photos substantially, and when you have shadows and dark colours you get visible "bands" where there should be subtle gradients, ie at sunsets and sunrises.
It sounds like you are using two methods to upload to Facebook:
1. Sharing from within Aperture, which basically syncs Facebook with your Aperture album, so any changes made at either end gets synced, hence the deletions from Albums, although the original file should still be in your library, just removed rom the album. It is like a playlist in iTunes.
2. Exporting pics and uploading to Facebook from the browser.
I am not sure how method 1 gets compressed, but I know that uploading hi-res jpegs to Facebook using method 2 results in poor quality images.
I wouldn't even bother comparing option 1 or 2, and they will both be poor images once you view them on Facebook, as opposed to viewing uploaded images on proper image sharing / hosting sites.
Your problem is not with Aperture, it is using Facebook for showing your work.
If you export pics form Aperture at high res jpegs or TIFFs your images will be fine.
If you insist to use Facebook as your way to share your work, then your workflow should be this:
1. Right click images you want to share.
2. Select Export version.
3. Export as 100% size and ensure the export settings are set at 100% quality.
4. Upload this pic into Facebook.
This will get you the best image size and resolution on Facebook.
See how you go.

Adding facebook comments to large product page

hi guys I just wanted to go over the facebook intergration process *** ive read this http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/kb/add-social-media.html
but couldnt find the container.html page in admin, only dreamweaver.
plus when ive checked out the forums on intergrating facebook comments there seems a work around because the current module doesnt work the way people want it. to.
Is this still the case or should I go about intergrating facebook as described http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/kb/add-social-media.html
What I want to do is use it on this site on the large product section instead of the comments module ive inserted
http://www.ceramicplanet.co.uk/bathroom-tiles/relief-white-5445-25x33cm
would adding the script to the large product template manually work better than adding it to the facebook container.html page in the social modules folder?
plus I got the impression peeps had trouble having the comments for that one item showing just on its own page. I want just comments for the product on show appearing on that product page not just any old list of random comments. Is this easy to do now or is there extra url tags needed?
any advice or help will be greatly appreciated
Dave
oh just to say this is the code facebook gave out when I pressed get code but Ive noticed different versions on forum pages, is it right to use this
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/all.js#xfbml=1";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>
<div class="fb-comments" data-href="http://example.com/comments"
data-colorscheme="The color scheme used in the plugin" data-numposts="5"
data-width="420"></div>

If you just want to keep it simple, Facebook has a social widget system that works from the URL, as long as the URL stays the same the comments will he there for that product or whatever you need.
It is very easy to implment and even has a wizard to help you config the size and look.

I'm having the oddest situation... On my 13" MBP, when trying to enter text into a Facebook comment box; my delete key is totally non-functional. I works just fine everywhere else, just not in the comment box. Cannot delete characters.

Add Facebook Comments to a Lightroom HTML Gallery template

If you prefer displaying your photos on your own website using Lightroom’s web galleries over uploading your photos to Facebook then one of the drawbacks is the lack of commenting. Fortunately, there’s a way to add Facebook Comments to your own website and gallery. See an example here. To implement this solution see the step by step tutorial:
http://so.ca/?p=265
Does anyone know if Lightroom templates are over-written when upgrading to a new version of Lightroom? It would be annoying to have to repeat these steps with each version upgrade.
Thanks.

Hi Jerfrank,
If you are looking outside of SharePoint, I would suggest you to check Facebook SDK to integrate with your site.
Here are few links to start with -
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/javascript/quickstart/

And a bing search for "Facebook developer API" could also help you.
Hope this helps!

Why Firefox 25.0 does not show Google ads and Facebook comments and likes. All other browsers do.

I've just upgraded to FireFox 25.0 and I have issues viewing Google ads and Facebook comments and likes on my website (wellfitstyle.com). All other browsers show Google adds in the right sidebar and Facebook comments and likes under each post. Great number of people in Eastern Europe (where I am) use FireFox and I would like to know how this issue can be fixed.
Tnx.

Hi there,
Starting in Firefox 23, if a secure page includes certain types of insecure content, Firefox blocks the insecure content and a shield icon will appear in the address bar. See this article for more information about the new mixed content blocker: [[How does content that isn't secure affect my safety?]]
To temporarily allow the mixed content to be displayed:
*Click the '''shield icon''' [[Image:Mixed Content Shield]] in the address bar and choose '''Disable Protection on This Page''' from the dropdown menu.
[[Image:Fx23MixedContentBlocker]]
To allow insecure content to be displayed in all secure pages, enter '''about:config''' in the address bar and double-click on this preference, to toggle it from true to false:
'''security.mixed_content.block_active_content'''
You can also use this add-on instead, to toggle the preference:
*[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/toggle-mixed-active-content/ Toggle Mixed active content] add-on
You may want to do this only for the current session, then reset the preference back to "true" and check back with the site to see whether it's been fixed, since this is a global setting that exposes you on all sites, not just the one you care about.

Facebook Comments plug-in pushes footer down.

I have placed a Facebook Comments plug in into my website. Here is the link: http://www.vpacreative.com/logo-and-stationary-design.html.

Using Facebook Comments for iWeb Blog (non mobile me domain)

Upon moving from a mobileme hosted iWeb created blog to a personal domain, I obviously lost ability to use iWeb commenting. That in-of-itself was frustrating, so I've been scouting out new possibilities. Some have recommended IntenseDebate and others, but I'm curious if anyone has had luck using Facebook Comments? http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/comments
I've been able to use the Facebook Like HTML as a Widget not a problem, but haven't been able to get Comments to work.
www.kellerowski.com
Thanks in advance!

That is because it is a plugin and plugins won't work with iWeb as far as I am aware.
I would try http://www.intensedebate.com. It is very easy to set up and it works and you will be notified by e-mail every time somebody posts a comment. I use IntenseDebate on my own site and it works very well for me.
Your other alternative of course is to ditch the iWeb blog and create a blog link to a blog created in WordPress - you can use http://www.wordpress.org too if you uploading to another host, so you will then have www.domain.com/Blog.

I have two facebook accounts availible when I click the facebook icon in aperture it tries to log into the disabled account. It doesn't give me any option to continue making an album for the enabled account. Why?

I have two facebook accounts availible when I click the facebook icon in aperture it tries to log into the disabled account. It doesn't give me any option to continue making an album for the enabled account. Why?

I suppose I could delete it, but the whole point of multiple accounts is so I can post to either. One is mine, one is my wife's. If it is not enabled why would I need to log into it to post to my own account. The system has no problem associating existing albums with my account, I is only failing to allow me to choose only my account to create an new one. It is clearly designed to handle multiple accounts, but seems to have a bug directing it to ask for the password for a disabled account instead of allowing selection of and posting to the enabled one.

Facebook Comments Module

Hello I am getting the error
Warning: http://invalid.invalid/ is unreachable.
What URL should I put when getting the code from the Facebook website. It wont let you leave it blank. I tried
url="{tag_itemurl_withhost}"} &
url="{tag_itemurl_nolink}"}
Also what URL should I put down when interting the module into my template. Again, I tried both that was listed above without luck. I am trying to put these facebook comments for individual blog posts.

Can you post the full context of this and where are you putting the code?
You mentioned template but you showed tags, those types of tags do not render in templates. Only in the layouts such as web apps that support the tags.

Can't copy-and-paste in Facebook comments

Suddenly, I am prevented from copy-and-paste in Facebook comments. What do I need to do?

Does pasting work if you temporarily disable JavaScript by toggling the <b>javascript.enabled</b> pref to false on the <b>about:config</b> page after the page has finished loading?
You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location/address bar.
You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

Safari facebook commenting - bug?

I can't believe I'm the only person experiencing this, but I can't find a reference to it anywhere. It's been happening for maybe a fortnight(-ish), and I'm wondering whether it might possibly have started with the 10.9.5 update.
It seems to be unique (so far) to typing Facebook comments in Safari on the mac. (Doesn't happen using safari on the ipad or iphone, and nor does it happen using Chrome on the mac.)
When I begin to type in the comment box, the first character does fine, but typing the second character seems to trigger a find-on-page search (i.e. with the search box at the top right of the tab / window) - with the result that the second and subsequent characters are all entered in the page search. That leaves the first character of the intended comment languishing forlornly in a forgotten comment field. And I also have the behaviour normal to a page text search - i.e. the grey 'fog' over the whole window and instances of the first letter of the 'search' highlighted.
Happens every single time, and only solution is to manually scroll back to the comment field and continue.
Needless to say this has made safari useless for Facebook-ing, so I'm now using Chrome for FB.
Ideas anyone?

Try a restart.
Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

Re-attach facebook images with Aperture library items.

I have been publishing subsets of my images to facebook for a while, since way before the integration was built in.
I have several facebook photo collections, which now show up in aperture, but there is no connection between the local library image and the remote (FB) one.
I would like to re-connect the online image to the offline image, without loosing the comments, likes etc that are attached to the online image... I HAVE all the images in Aperture, and they have the same names in FB "collections"....
To date, I can find no way to re-attach the images, i really really do not want to loose the FB interactions, but i really really want to re-link the images to the original... I am guessing i am going to have the same problem when i get to sort out flickr too.
I would also like to get a watermark in them too.. but i guess that is another thread in the making.
Thanks in advance for any advice or handholding to sort this one out...

Could you clarify this
To shift / update the library between desktop and laptop I have been exporting the library - jpeg full size
If you are exporting projects as libraries then this is confusing.
Is it possible when you first looked at the size (how are you doing that by the way?) Aperture had not finished generating all the previews and when you checked the size again it had?
Have you done this workflow since your first post? Has the library continued to grow? If you do the steps again does the library change size?
You coild get a program like Download OmniDiskSweeper for Mac - it is free and will list break out the Aperture library showing you how large each piece is. This might show something.
However it is possible that there isn't aeven problem here.
regards

TS3274 I have Facebook "comment" window open and cannot close it or move to another area on Facebook

Read "comments" on Facebook post but cannot get it to close now nor can I access anything else on Facebook. Suggestions?

Hello kingsley2012,
It sounds like the Facebook app on your iPad is stuck on a specific page. I recommend following the steps in the article below for an issue like this (you can skip step 3 since it is not related to this issue):

Firefox freezes when there are pop up boxes or any box you have to click on to type in information e.g Facebook comments, Firefox About window

I have both the latest Firefox 3.6.12 and Adobe Flash. Firefox will freeze up for no apparent reason. It's most commonly happened when there's a box that needs text information adding into it (like the comments box on Facebook pages) or when a smaller window opens up like the save file/open with box, or even the About Firefox window. When this happens, I cannot enter text into the boxes or close the boxes or Save/Open file. The main browser window stays "greyed out" at the top, like it's inactive and I cannot type into the URL bar. Nor can I close the window, I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL to close the program and try again. THe only thing that's changed recently was the updates for both Firefox and Adobe Flash to the latest versions.

I do not have that box checked... so now what?
Thanks
