If I make a photo album in iPhoto,will it read well in an iPad? I want a photo flip book? Or is there a better app for me to create a digital scrapbook that I can share?

Hi, I'm interested in creating a photo scrapbook in iPhoto, but I want to send it as a gift in digital form?  Ideally, I want the pictures, writing and images to view well in an iPad, like a customized FlipBook. Can you recommend an app or program that I can use, that doesn't require printing?
Thank you,
Tania

iPhoto is a consumer level photo storage and manipulation program,
It stores it's files in the iPhoto Library, which appears to be a file, but if right clicked on and "show package contents" is actually a folder with it's sensitive guts inside, including a folder called Modified and Originals which you can Finder > File > Duplicate and transfer out.
If you use iPhoto to delete a photo, it IS removed off your hard drive as well but only from the iPhoto Library folder/package, not anywhere else on your drive as iPhoto is supposed to import a copy if say you have some on your desktop already and import them into iPhoto.
So it shouldn't touch anything outside your iPhoto Library. So how you organize photo's outside your iPhoto Library is your business, however don't expect iPhoto to respect your wishes inside the iPhoto Library package, that's really reserved for iPhoto use only.

    The current 27-inch iMac can. Other iMac models can't outside of a VNC setup or ScreenRecycler; all such solutions require a standalone monitor for setup and troubleshooting.

  • Creating an offline website that you can share with other people

    I want to create a dynamic document where my client can click on something on the document and it will link him to another document. I have created a document that can do this through dreamweaver in the form of a website. The only problem is that my client does not want the information in this documentation to be online. So I need to find a way to basically make my website available to him offline.
    So in essence I need to be able to share my website through a more discrete form, such as dropbox or email. The problem with this are the links. I can obviously easily share all my html files to my client but all the links will be broken since he will place the other html files on his computer. I have thought of trying to put the files on dropbox and just link them to that but it does not seem to work.
    Has anyone done something like this in the past? I think what I need to do is make the link look within its own origin folder or maybe I'm looking at this from the wrong angle.
    I would say my level of competence with dreamweaver is about beginner to novice and I understand the fact that I could create a website with password protection or something similiar but that is not ideal.
    Thanks

    You hit the nail right on the head there.
    I've created literally hundreds of HTML "local" site documents like that. I've run them from Flash Drives, CD-ROMs and Hard Drives. The KEY is to create the site in its own folder and make SURE all links point to files within that Root folder and don't have the "absolute" path. ("page.html" - NOT "File:///C/users/[username]/documents/sites/sitename/page.html")
    Once you have it done, you can zip it or burn it or copy it to another drive and the links will work as long as all the files are in the root folder and subfolders.

  • I want to create a network so that I can share a printer, but I don't want to connect it to the internet. It is just for the laptops to connect to the printer. Is that possible with the airport express?

    I think I should be able to, but both at the apple store and when I called apple, the sales people told me it can't be done.
    I've read the manuals for both the express and the extreme, and I can't see why this is not possible.
    Can anyone enlighten me on this?

    Yes, this is possible ... but understand that you would need two switch wireless networks between network/Internet access and for printing.
    The AirPort would not get a Public IP address, but it would have a Private IP address of 10.0.1.1 ... and it would be providing wireless clients connected to it with Private IP addresses in the 10.0.1.2 - 10.0.1.200 range.
    AirPort Utility > Select the AirPort > Manual Setup > AirPort > Wireless

    Wireless Network Name: <enter a desired Network Name or SSID>

    The AirPort will still report at least three errors: 1) Configuration of WAN, 2) SNMP over WAN, and 3) Double NAT. These can all be safely ignored to stop the AirPort's status light from flashing amber in this configuration.

  • App for accessing remote files on a mac that you can play in another app

    Hey all,
    Anyone know of an app that will allow me to access files stored on a mac connected to the same wifi that I can play the file through another app in the iPhone without the file being transferred to the phone?
    For example, I want to be able to access a m4v stored on my mac over wifi, within the iPhone, to be played with a video player that I can send to a TV with the composite cable.
    I found NetPortal, which works quite well, but you need to transfer the file to your iphone and even then, it wont open with many apps. I tried transferring a m4v file to my phone and it only gave me goodreader as an app to open the file with. I could simply transfer the file I want to access using my USB cable to my iPhone much faster.
    Simply, I want to be able to stream movies from my Mac, through my iPhone to a TV and I am finding it hard to find Apps that allow such a thing.
    Any suggestions?

    I already have that setup at home. I want to be able to use this when I am on the road.
    I already use StreamToMe and Airvideo, but sometimes the quality is quite bad, which is mainly cause by my low upload speed. So I am looking for higher quality alternatives. I carry around a macbook air a lot so I figured I could store lots of movies for on the road to be played on other's tvs when were taking it easy.
    I am always so amused by responses on this forum. The solution is always to buy something.

  • I imported 635 images into an iPhoto album so that I can share them via a photo-stream. However, iPhoto says there are only 600. When I try to add the missing images it says they are already there. Why can i not see these images in iPhoto?

    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.

  • HT2265 for some reason the only photos that do the random scrolling are events, can I include the albums from iphoto to scroll as well.   the know the albums have synced because i can view them in slideshow

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    I assume you are referring to the screensaver. You can change the photos used by the screensaver in the screensaver settings. Note if you have a large number of photos in the collection you choose for screensaver, not all of them will be used due to the limited storage available to the Apple TV.

  • HT5129 all of my albums in mobile me came from my albums in iPhoto. will mobile me recognize that, or would it place a duplicate copy back to my iPhoto?

    all of my ablums in mobile me came from my albums in iPhoto. will mobile me recognize that? or would it migrate duplicates back to my iPhoto? thanks.

    OT - Unfortunately, Apple hasn't made it that easy.  They've tried, but didn't get there.  I have been logged out of MMe from the System Preferences for months, and I am still getting the new message now every time I open iPhoto to migrate my albums to iPhoto from MMe.  I deleted those photos (which I had also like fatsojung loaded from iPhoto in the first place, but now have divided some of those to separate libraries for space), and even had deleted the albums from MMe!  Thought I was DONE with MMe months ago!!  Now I'm getting the following message when I try to delete my MMe account from my iPhoto preferences to stop the message:
    "31 albums will be removed from your IPHOTO LIBRARY."!!!!  Is that a typo??  Shouldn't it say "MobileMe gallery"?  As those photos are still in my iPhoto library, I certainly do NOT want them deleted from iPhoto!    And why does it still have all 31 albums in there when I deleted them from MMe months ago??  I feel like I'm in a horrible loop that won't let me go!
    It's just a pain if I have to let it download all those pictures into my iPhoto trash, then delete them AGAIN.  And frankly I'm a bit worried that it will confuse it with my originals that are still in that library.  Good thing I have Time Machine! 
    Any insight as to what actually happens when we click "Remove"?  Thanks.

  • Can two Apple IDs be linked so that they can share data? My iMac and iPad have the same Apple ID and sync contacts, bookmarks, etc. My wife's iPad has a different Apple ID. Can it be linked somehow to mine to share contacts etc?

    No. You cannot link your contacts to hers. However, you can use Home Sharing to share the information:

  • I attempted to move my iTunes library so that I can share it with the other accounts on my computer. Now it won't play on any account.  How do I restore locations without losing all my songs etc?

    I was following directions on a mac board on how to share my iTunes library with my kids accounts on my computer. I must have not followed the directions correctly, as now I can not listen to any music on any account including the admin.  I don't remember where I got the instructions or what I did to reverse the things that I moved.  How do I restore my ability to listen to all the music that I have without re-aquiring it? 
    And then how do I get it so that I can share with the other accounts on my computer?
    thanks

    Without knowing what changes you made it's impossible to say what you can do to fix it, but I would suggest checking two things in the Preferences menu:  first, under the Parental Controls, make sure you haven't disabled any of the areas that won't play; second, go into the Sharing area and uncheck the "Share library on my local network" box, then go back to the main library and see if the songs will play.

    Not exactly your own app store, but close.  Apple has an App Store Volume Purchasing Program for Business > http://www.apple.com/business/vpp/
    It allows you to purchase apps in any quantity you desire and pay using a company credit card.  You will receive a spreadsheet of redeem codes which you distribute to your emloyees.  The program guide has complete information > http://images.apple.com/business/docs/VPP_Business_Guide_US.pdf

  • I am trying to find out how to sync my outlook calendar, which is my default calendar, with my gmail calendar so that I can share it with my wife so she knows when I am going to be out of town for work.

    My primary calendar that I use on my iPhone 5 is my outlook calendar.  In the past, on other phones, I would sync this with my gmail calendar so that I could share it with my wife so that she would know when I am out of town for work.  Any suggestions for doing this or is there a better method to accomplish the same thing?

    Hello SMEvans32
    You can use iCloud to share the Calendar, that way she will always be up to date on that particular section of your work calendar. If you want to use iCloud, I would recommend backing up so you have a safe copy of your data.

  • HT3705 How do I save a Pages document to jpeg so that I can share on social media?

    I have created a brochure and would like to post it on Facebook. How do I save a Pages document to jpeg so that I can share on social media and email? Do I have to save it as a jpeg or what other format can I save it in?

    Ashe,
    In Pages, Print to "PDF > Open PDF in Preview". From Preview, File > Export to the format or your choosing, one page at a time. For text, PNG would be better than JPG.
