Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Once you get the plugin installed this demo page may be of interest in getting the resulting SimpleViewer presentation on a MobileMe site: SimpleViewer. It has a sample presentation and directions of uploading the files to the iDisk and adding them to an iWeb page.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) 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 created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), 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. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

  • Anyone using Simple Viewer?  How do I change the background color?

    To match my website better, I would like to change the background color to white. Any ideas... Hopefully automatically?

    Hello TandA4,
    You need to open up the folder you created. Locate the file called "index.html" and open it with text edit. Find the following three pieces of text:
    background-color: #181818;
    <param name="BGCOLOR" value="#181818" />
    scale="noscale" bgcolor="#181818" type="application/
    In each case change the "181818" (or what other numbers or digits are there) with six F's. It should look like: background-color: #FFFFFF.
    Kind Regards,

  • Upgrade Simple Viewer

    The "Simple Viewer" website indicates that the viewer will now work with iPhones and other non-Flash enable applications. Yet, when I build a gallery in Bridge using Simple Viewer it does not work without Flash. Is this an upgrade issue? And, does anyone know how to upgrade so that it will work through Bridge?

    Well, you are probably correct. It is included with the default installation of Bridge as one of the slide show templates. When you open the output tab in bridge and create a web gallery, there are three "Airtight" options: Airtight Postcard Viewer, Airtight Auto Viewer and Airtight Simple Viewer. "Simple Viewer" is a nice, simple web gallery show that looks good when embedded into a Dreamweaver page.
    But, as I said, it only works if Flash is installed. When I went to the Simple Viewer website (via the hot link embedded into the template in Bridge) the description says it works on iPhones and other browsers that do not have Flash installed. So, I was just trying to figure out why it says that, when the version that came with Bridge does not work on sites that don't use Flash.
    I'm guessing that Adobe Bridge uses an older version of Airtight Simple Viewer and 1) I am a little surprised that they don't update it since it comes with the default installation of Bridge and 2) since it was installed with Bridge, I'm not sure how to update it even if I download the update file -- I don't know where Adobe Bridge puts the file or what I have to do to update it. The Simple VIewer site allows you to download the product and run it as a separate action, but I did not find any instructions on how to incorporate it into Bridge, so that if replaces/updates the Bridge plug-in.
    I was just hoping for some guidance, thinking (apparently incorrectly) that Adobe would offer some support/assistance/guidance for a product they include with their default installation of Bridge.

  • I can't view old iphoto libraries. It wants me to use a new version of iphoto but from all the commits here, no one likes it. Help! how do i get to my old libraries???

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you see when iPhoto opens?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is you library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?

    I have a iPhone 5.  In usage, it says i have 2.1 gigs used because of photos and camera.  I have deleted all my photos via iPhoto and now reset the phone back to factory settings in order to try to solve this problem, to no avail.   Both iTunes  and the phone say that 2.1 gigs are being used, even though the phone now has nothing on it.  What is going on?

    Yeah it works fine over wifi the problem is when I try to use it over my 3G. It's really stressing me out now.

  • Simple viewer help

    Hi all, I need your help. I have created my website, and I'm linking it to mobile me galleries. (no problem). But-- instead of mobile me galleries I would like to link to Simple Viewer.
    No problem creating the SV galleries in iphoto , but getting them on my site is baffeling.
    I have read all the posts, and have had no success. I am a novice and the nominclature is rough
    As I said , I created the gallery folder and placed it in the sites folder on my idisk. when I click on the index folder within the gallery appears and the address is file:///Volumes/rgardnerimages/Web/Sites/slideshoe/index.html nothing I do is linking it to a web page. Any help in simple language would be helpful.
    My website is http://www.richardgardnerphotography.com/RichardGardner/richard_gardnerhome.html
    Thanks in advance
    Richard

    Its so long since I did this that I to look back and see where my files were uploaded and how they are organized.
    Its seems I have the following files uploaded to the main folder on my server:
    flash_detect.js
    image data.xml
    images
    PostCard.html
    thumbs
    viewer.swf
    PostCard.html is the index.html file renamed so that it doesn't conflict with the index.html file generated by iWeb.
    If you are using MobileMe to publish you can upload these files to the Finder/Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites folder and the URL will be..
    http://web.me.com/username/PostCard.html
    Its probably better to upload them to your website folder. The path is Finder/Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites/WebsiteName folder and the URL for the link to it will be ....
    http://web.me.com/username/WebsiteName/PostCard.html
    These uploads are done by drag and drop. Follow the path from the Finder/Go menu or do Shift - Command - I from any Finder window and then double click the Web then the Sites folders to get to your actual website folder.

  • Need Flash Help - configuring AIrtight Simple Viewer Pro

    I need some help configuring the Airtight Interactive simple viewer pro, which requires flash. I am a complete beginner with flash, and I am reluctant to undertake the learning curve, though I am very tech saavy.
    My ideal would be to locate someone who could do this FOR me, though resources are very limited for this project. Any suggestions of where I might connect with someone interested in doing this?
    Alternately, I could undertake it myself, with someone qualified to coach me rather thouroughly through the whole process. That could be offline, or here where others could benefit from the thread. If someone offers this, I will post the precise details of what I need. The project is medium challenging, not extremely complex, but more than very basic.
    Many Thanks.

    Hi:
    When you create the simpleviewer slideshow with iPhoto's plugin there should be a folder created on your HD that contains the items seen in the screenshot below:
    The folder was named simpleviewer because that's what I named it during the export from iPhoto. That's the same folder as I refer to as "Slideshow folder". It can be whatever you name it when exporting from iPhoto. Upload that folder to your iDisk/Web/Sites folder as shown below:
    In the iFrame code use the following URL to the index.html file inside the simpleviewer folder:
    http://web.me.com/YourMMe_AccountName/simplerviewer/index.html
    That should do it.

  • Simple viewer help needed please

    I need help with this exact problem please which was posted by Kirby on 9th Feb
    I can't save into the idisk/web folder although I can copy the files over after they refuse to open (if that means anything)...
    "This is for Old Toad. I checked out your demo site which is awesome. I read the tutorial,
    Examples of SimpleViewer and Flash Album Exporter Slideshows (plugins for iPhoto)
    ADDED USING HTML SNIPPET AND IFRAME
    This was great but I am still running into a roadblock. The issue seems to be that in the URL that is given on your demo page...
    http://web.me.com/youraccountname/slideshow folder/index.html
    ....it says to enter my account name (which I did).
    I am uploading the simple-viewer folder to my iDisk using the Go menu but inside of the Web/Sites folder there is no folder called Slideshow Folder. So am I right in thinking that the URL has nothing to point too because that folder isn't there? Why isn't it there? And is there anything I can do to solve this? Is there another place the simple-viewer folder should be on my idisk?"

  • Error-can't view photos in photo library using this version of iphoto .

    Hi, I recently bought a macbook air and wanted to transfer pictures to it from my old mac (macbook 10.4.11). I viewed the pictures through file sharing, but was unable to finish saving most of the pictures that day.
    When I try and view my iphoto photos now from/and on the macbook or the macbook air, it tells me I am unable to view the photos (you can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto. You have made changes to your photo libray using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto.) I can't download the latest version of iphoto on that computer because it's 10.4.11. When I try to view the photos on the macbook air through file sharing (like I had done previously and it worked) it gives me the same message as above and I have the most recent version of iPhoto on the macbook Air. Anyone able to help me out?? I am unable to view any of my photos, is there any other way of opening photos other then through iphoto?? Thanks, Bo

    If you opened an older iPhoto library with a newer version of iPhoto you received a warning that the library would be converted and that this can not be undone so you will have to either:
    1 - Load your backup from before the conversion;
    2 - upgrade to iPhoto '09 on the old system (which will require an OS upgrade too); or
    3 - create a new library on the old system and reimport the photos form the originals folder on the library that you mistakenly upgraded

    Hello George,
    I don't have any personalization set on the info space. Also I am using mapped Account in BI to connect to HANA. The confusing part is that it is able to validate the infospace with the input parameters and index it. However query does not return any results. I even tried running the same query which explorer sends to HANA in the SQL editor and there too the same results,the query does not return anything. The model does return data when I do a data preview and if accessed from other tools like AAO.
    Also when I use SSO connection to HANA, indexing of the infospace fails. Where can I see the error log?
    Thanks,

  • I need help with color pallette in iPhoto 11. I have created a book and would like to use a different color background than those given in "background." I have found the color palettes but can't seem to incorporate them into my backgrounds palette.

    I need help with color pallette in iPhoto 11. I have created a book and would like to use a different color background than those given in "background." I have found the color palettes but can't seem to incorporate them into my backgrounds palette.

    That is not a feature of iPhoto - suggest to Apple - iPhoto Menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback.
    Additionally I have no idea what you are saying here
    I have found the color palettes but can't seem to incorporate them into my backgrounds palette.
    And it always helps for you to dientify the version of iPhoto that you are using

    No, you will need something more advanced, like Photoshop.

  • Can't open current photo library using this version of iPhoto... HELP

    Is anybody out there that can hlep me. I have bee ntrying to import pictures of my canon but I keep getting this error message....
    "you can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto. You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto."
    Here is the thing... I have never imported pictures yet on this program. If I check for updates it tells me I am current on all updates. Any suggestions??
    Thanks

    OK, first you need to create an iPhoto Library folder that's compatible with your version of iPhoto -- drag the existing iPhoto Library folder from your Pictures folder to the desktop. Launch iPhoto and choose "Create New..." from the dialog that's presented. Quit iPhoto when you see the new empty library view.
    Next, you're going to plop the incompatible iPhoto Library into the newly created iPhoto Library folder. In a Finder view, drag the iPhoto Library folder that was moved to the desktop INTO the newly created iPhoto Library folder in your Pictures folder (you want to have your old iPhoto Library folder inside your newly-created iPhoto Library folder).
    Finally, you're going to rebuild the library database. Start iPhoto while holding the option+shift keys. Don't release them until you're prompted to confirm the rebuild intent. Click "Yes", then click "Save".
    After you've verified that iPhoto is again functional, you'll find two iPhoto Library folders in your Pictures folder. The rebuilt library will have a "_1" at the end of the folder's name. The other one (the 'Library within a Library") can be moved to the trash if the rebuild is satisfactory.

    hi i have an iphone 4 that needs to be updated but my phone is using the cellular company simple mobile via gsm chip and my phone isnt jailbroken will this mess up my phone.

    If your iPhone is truly unlocked - purchased as unlocked through Apple
    or through wireless provider that sells unlocked iPhones or unlocked
    by a wireless provider, then the update should not mess up your iPhone.
    If your iPhone was jailbroken or hacked to change wireless providers,
    then the update will relock it to the original wireless provider if you are lucky
    or turn it into a useless brick if unlucky.
    Back up first to protect against glitches or other problems.
