I don't want a slideshow

Brand new to iWeb. I want to create a simple gallery page, that will have thumbnails in a grid on one side, and when you click the thumbnail, you get a full size photo on the other side. I don't want visitors to have to go through a slideshow, I just want them to click on a thumbnail that looks interesting, and be able to see the whole photo, on the same page. Is that possible?
This is kind of what I'm going for:

You can get that kind of effect with Simpleviwer.

You can also install FAExporter as an iPhoto plugin instead of using iPhoto Export.app.
Here's a page that demonstrates Postcard Viewer which is available from the same developer.....

Don't want slideshow

I want to use a photo template page to place stills of movies to use as links to my individual movie pages (I don't want tons of movie links in my navigation menu). Can I remove the slideshow feature from the photo template page so that these images can be links? Or does anyone have a different solution?
(I'm a newbie to iWeb)
Thanks!

Just drag thumbnails of your movies to fill the photo template. Then use the shape tool to make rectangles to cover the thumbnails completely. Attach a hyperlink to each of your movie pages to each rectangle shape. The select each rectangle shape and change the opacity to 1% to let the underlying thumbnail show through. This way, you have made a gallery page for your individual quicktime movie pages. You can then uncheck the "include in navigation menu" box for each of the movie pages and just have this gallery page show in the menu.

These are your options:
1. Restore the iPhoto library from the most recent backup that predates the issue.
          Advantages: Always works, if library damage is causing the problem and the backup is intact.
          Disadvantages: Impossible if you don't have a backup. All changes made since the backup are lost.
2. Repair or rebuild the library. Be sure to back it up first.
          Advantages: May solve the problem with no loss of data.
          Disadvantages: May fail. May take a long time if the library is large.
3. Scavenge the library with a third-party application called "iPhoto Library Manager," which you can find in a web search. From the application's menu bar (not the iPhoto menu bar), select Library ▹ Rebuild.
          Advantages: All images should be preserved.
          Disadvantages: All books, calendars, and slideshows will be lost.

Portrait Photos don't show in Slideshows...

Okay, so I was making a Slideshow to send to iDVD when I noticed that while previewing the show, none of my portrait photos were showing up. The landscapes, however, were OK. After going back to the portraits, I saw that for every single portrait, a gray box with an exclamation point took the place of the photo. I tried remaking the slideshow many times, but I always got this error. What's going on and how can I fix this?

That is a very likely cause for the issue you're having, yes.
Using iPhoto Diet to tamper with the iPhoto Library Folder is not a recommended activity. It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss.
If space is an issue then the best solution is to use a firewire external HD and run your library from there.
If you don't want - or need - version control (the ability to revert to the original image) then my best advice is to use another Photo Organiser. Version Control is at the heart of iPhoto and trying to defeat it is - as you're discovering - a risky business.

Don't want autoplay

I don't want autoplay for my slideshow DVD, but I seem to get it no matter what. I have a cool menu and I want the menu to be the 1st thing a viewer sees when they put the DVD in. But as soon as I pop in the DVD, it always goes straight to the full slideshow + music. I dragged a picture to the project icon (1st icon in DVD map), but that doesn't even show up when I insert the DVD. It always goes straight to slideshow.
Anyone know what I can do??

Idvd menu - don't want one!

I've been looking for an answer all day without any luck. Maybe someone can help me..pleeeze. I'm trying to burn a dvd of several short videos without a menu. I just want the dvd to stop after each video and then advance to the next one when I press play on the player. Is this possible on idvd? I don't want a silly theme or menu. If not, what software out there can help me. Someone told me Toast, but that only burns and copies. if you can please help me.

Hi VideoTeach
Welcome to apple discussions. Just so you are aware, Toast does much more than what you pointed out above.
But if you wish to stay with iDvd as an Autostart Dvd then consider using a manual advance slideshow w/in iDvd (btw, the slideshow feature works great for both photos and movies; and especially shorter movies).
Once you've completed your manual advance slideshow (which also contains all your short movies) then go to Map View and drag and drop said slideshow to the very first/top box. Don't forget to use the loop feature as shown below so that you are not confronted later with a menu at the end of your presentation. Essentially the menu is hidden from your audience and your dvd will now play in Kiosk Mode w/o returning to a menu.

Should work fine but if not just come on back. Good luck.

Images don't show on slideshow screen

Do the IPhoto files have to be in a certain order in specific files. I was making a slideshow and trying to organize them and my slideshow worked find and then suddenly, all of the images show at the top but the screen is black. Can anyone tell me where the file needs to be or what I've done wrong. Thanks

redchick,
Are you saying you did your own organization in the iPhoto Library folder that is in your Pictures folder. If you did, then read these links...
Two Apple kbs for you to read
Don't tamper with files in the iPhoto library folder
About the iPhoto Library folder
since you have very little you can start all over and import the images from the old library.
Close iPhoto
Rename your messed up iPhoto Library to "iPhoto Library_old"
Drag this library to your desktop
Hold down the Option key and launch iPhoto
This is the window you will get
Create a new library or choose a library to open
Choose to create a new library
Once this new empty library is open it is time to import the images from your old library
Go to File>add to library
Navigate to the old library on your desktop and highlight it in the window, then click the "open" button.
iPhoto will start importing the images from your old library
This is what to expect:
Your images will be imported in nice dated rolls. (make sure your view is set to sort by rolls to see it) There are a couple of caveats to this. You will get rolls named "Originals" These rolls will contain your video clips and your original images that you had edited. If you had RAW files they would be in those rolls too (I don't do RAW, so I don't know for sure) Delete what you don't want from those rolls. You will also get the jpeg pointer files to your video clips imported. They will just be jpegs and will not point to the video clips anymore as iPhoto made new ones when the clips were imported again. You can delete those. they should be in a roll right next to the newly imported video clips so they are not hard to find. The thumbnail files don't get imported as iPhoto makes new ones when the images are imported.
Once all you images have been imported, check through the library and make sure everything looks ok.
You can now start making your Albums, and do your keywords or any other organizational steps.
You can also delete the old library on the desktop.
It is also a good time to backup this new library to CD/DVD by burning the iPhoto LIbrary folder in the Finder, or copying the iPhoto Library folder to an external drive formatted for Macs, or copying the iPhoto LIbrary folder to an iPod.
Good luck and keep me updated on your progress!

I don't want a menu

The only thing that I want to save and play is the slideshow. I don't want a menu page at all. I want the slideshow to start automatically when I open up the saved file. Does anyone know if this can be done? If so, how would I do this?

I need to make my own apple id because I'm older and don't want to share everything with my family but if I do, how do I get all the music and everything I bought?

I don't want to share my apple id with my family anymore but I own over 2000 songs and a few other things I bought so would I be able to get them if I got a new apple id?

You don't. Everythng downloaded with one Apple ID can not be transfered to another Apple ID. So you would need to buy it a second time. This is one of the Pit Falls of the whole Download only model.
That is why I refuse to buy things like music or movies that are tied to a specific User Name, ID.

How can another user on my system share their document if they cannot access a public drop box, do not have an email account setup on the system and we don't want to use iwork?

Please help. My DS created a document under his login on my PowerBook and now, I cannot seem to access it. He doesn't have an email account of his own, I can't seem to save it as a public document in a drop box like I can from my own login and we do not want to use iwork. Is there a way to save it so that I can access it from my login to email to his teacher. I don't want to have to retype it into Pages under my login.

Save the document from his account to an external drive or thumb drive.
Set the permissions (using Finder > Get Info) for "Everyone" to Read and Write.
Your DS will likely be the owner of the file, so you may need his login password to change the permissions.

Barry

How can I disable Game Center in iOS6 if I don't want to go public?

Even with all notifications and banners, etc., turned ofgf for Game Center, some games still demand a SignIn/Out before allowing play. I don't want to compete with other users, and don't care how well they play either. There should be a general Opt-Out that works for us curmudgeons.

I just wanted to play Backgammon tonight. It looped through the signin pages ten times before I could. Forcing Game Center on me just insures that I won't every buy another game...

My husband and I are using the same computer. He has a ton of songs in iTunes that I don't want...but when I sync my iPod I get all of his songs too. Is there a way of setting up another ITunes account without having to untick all of the ton songs iTunes

My husband has a ton of songs in iTunes that I don't want on my iPod nano. Is there a way to set up a separate account on the same computer in iTunes? Do I have to un-tick all of his songs (would take forever!! And then he would have to tick them again)....when we sync our iPods?

No. Its not possible.
Alternatively, create another user account in your computer. Install iTunes in that account with the library you wish to sync.

How I can solve this problem or manipulate it ports 80,443 are closed by ISP and they don't want to open it

hi,
I see that I have a particulier abonnee of my ISP , which has closed all the ports for security reason and they don't want to open any of it 80,443 ect.
suppose If I want to use Essential server 2012 how I can solve this problem , essential wants domain name whith A record.
I asked DDNS service provider if I lease from them a domain name whith A record would that help to open or manipulate the port 80,443 they said that I have to solve this problem myself . they lease only domain names with dynamic dns records.
so what can be a solution the ISP provider won't open this ports , how I can solve this problem . domain name with ip adres is not helping so what it's go to help?
thanks
johan
h.david

The domain name in this instance is only used for remote access, and is seperate from the active directory domain name.
If your ISP blocks port 80 and 443, and you dont intend to use remote access anyway, the wizard will likely not complete successfully whether you have a valid domain name or not.

Can any one tell me how can I move to a different folder pictures, that I've cloned, without them staying aggregated? They all come together to the other folder and I don't want that- thanks

There's more to it than that.
Folders in Aperture do not hold Images. They hold Projects and Albums. You cannot put an Image in a Folder without putting it in a Project or an Album inside that Folder.
The relationship between Projects and Images is special: every Image must in a Project, and can be in only one Project.
Images can be in as many Albums you want. Putting an Image in an Album does not move it from the Project that holds it.
You can make as many Versions from a Master as you want.
What you want to do may appear simple to you, but it still much adhere to how Aperture works. I still can't tell exactly what you are trying to do (specifically: Images don't live in Folders; moving an Image from a Folder is non-sensical).
It can be very confusing (and frustrating) to get going with Aperture -- but it does work, and can be enormously helpful. If you haven't, take a look at the video tutorials on Apple's Aperture support site.
I feel as though I haven't helped you much -- but we need to be using the same names for interface items in order to get anything done -- and my sense is that you still haven't learned the names of the parts.

I have Firefox 19.0 on Mac OS 10.6.3. It downloaded an update and threatens to install it next time I run Firefox. How do I prevent this? I don't want it.

I used "Show package contents" to open Firefox.app, and I see a Firefox icon named "updated". Can I just delete this, or will it also remove Firefox entirely? If so, can I get my old version of Firefox back? Until I can figure out how to not install this update, I won't restart Firefox. Thanks!

Sorry, I don't want it. I didn't ask for it to download, and I don't run programs I haven't chosen specifically to install. Is there a way to get my old Firefox back? If not, I won't be using Firefox anymore. Thanks!
