Importing photos others have uploaded to my web gallery into my library

My web galleries seem to be working great...a few people have uploaded their own photos and they have synched down to my web galleries. But what is the best way to import my friends' photos into my iPhoto library? I want them to appear in my Events, not just under the Web Gallery section.
I tried to select my friends photos and copy them to my library and it didn't look like it worked, so I tried again. Then I noticed that all of a sudden I had 100 photos in my web gallery, when I only uploaded 20 and my friend added another 10. There were several duplicates of each.
Help! What's the best way to do this? Thanks for any help!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If you publish a gallery as you indicated, hidden, visitors to your public web gallery will not see it and have access to it unless they are given the URL by you. Conversely, visitors to the hidden gallery will not have access to the other galleries from that hidden gallery.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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), 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. 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.

  • Import Others' pictures uploaded to my mobileme gallery

    I've successfully created a Mobileme gallery and have allowed others to uploads pics to it. Is there an easy way to import pictures other have uploaded into Aperture? When I sync the gallery I see those pics in Aperture but they don't appear to actually be imported.

  • Others uploading to my web gallery

    I was hoping someone here can help. I have set up a web gallery from imovie, where people can view my movies, but i was hoping that they could also upload to it and put their videos in. I thought this was possible, but for some reason, the upload button does not appear.
    Have i got the wrong end of the stick, and its not actually possible, or am i missing something. If you can shed light on this, that would be great!

    did you make yours in imovie or iphoto?
    You may well be correct here. Test galleries were first duplicated in both applications for comparison purposes in earlier version, later deleted, and re-published by single application with "Upload" option selected to see what it would do. Last month the 2007 photos were archived to DVD and iMovie "events" were deleted (keeping Mini-DV tapes as archives) as part of my annual "Spring Cleaning" effort. All I really remember was being presented with the option to select the "Upload" option and using either a "Browser" and/or "E-Mail" application to allow relatives and "party goers" to add their own files but not one person elected to do so and I stopped including the option.

    somehow lost access to my iTunes library.
    What does iTunes have to do with this?   Also more specific information might be helpful.
    What system and iPhoto versions are you running?
    Where are you being asked to select a library?  What kind of library, iPhoto or iTunes?
    What do you see when you first launch iPhoto?

  • Importing a premade photoshop web gallery into flash

    I am using a pc and I have made a photoshop web gallery is
    cs2 and I wish to import the .swf file into adobe flash so I can
    add a few navigation tools for example a home and a blog button but
    when I import the .swf file into flash it says cannot open a
    protected movie if someone could help me with this that would be
    amazing because all I need a few damn buttons for my website to be
    perfect thanks here is my website TomFowlerPhotography.com in case
    you wanted to see what I was talking about thanks so much

    I am not familiar with what PS CS2 creates, but you should
    check whatever publish settings there are for that feature to make
    sure that any file protection features are not enabled. That may be
    the source of the problem.

    I have uploaded a mini HTML gallery to my website host using Lightroom.  should the gallery be placed in the assets folder (i.e. public/assets/galleries/alexis)

    When I see code errors, I stop trying to trouble shoot  because code errors account for 98% of browser rendering problems.  When you clear up your orphaned tags: mismatched <p></p> and <li></li> tags, then I'll take a closer look.
    PS. Being able to work with code is essential to using DW and 3rd party plugins.  Without basic coding skills, you're going to be lost most of the time.

  • Adding web gallery into existing website

    Hi,
    Does anyone know if you can add/import a lightroom created web gallery into an existing webpage? I am redoing my website (originally created with Frontpage, now considering using Expression Web) and want to create photo galleries using lightroom. I know you can create the same type of gallery using Flash, however I don't want to buy a new program when I have lightroom already. I don't have enough experience with HTML to use Dreamweaver.
    Thanks!
    Nancy

    This previews just fine from Dreamweaver but when uploaded non
    of my images load. Please see www.jakgallery.com/19701979
    All I get is the circular wait icon. Thanks very much for any help you can give. It seems I am one little step away from making it work.

  • Embed Photoshop Web Gallery Into Site

    I have been furiously scouring the internet for a tutorial,
    walk though, or simply any information at all on how to embed a
    Photoshop Web Gallery into a website that I'm creating using
    Dreamweaver; unfortunately, I have found nothing of value. The
    closest thing I found is someone saying "I just copied the html to
    a table in dreamweaver..." which doesn't help a complete novice
    (like me) at all.
    If anyone could direct me to a thorough tutorial or writeup
    the steps to take it would help me
    tremendously. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

    > Is it possible to embed a Web gallery that is in my
    remote files into a
    > template page so it will match my Web site?
    Yes. Let's see your page as it stands now. Can you upload it
    and post a
    link?
    The Object Not Found message means that there is a javascript
    object that
    has been left out of the page. A look at the code will tell
    which one that
    is.

  • Windows 7 64 bit Dreamweaver CC 2014 & Lightroom 5: Trying to insert a lightroom web gallery into a template in Dreamweaver

    I am using a template for my website in Dreamweaver CC 2014. I installed a lightroom 5 web gallery into the template. I have an editable region where my main content goes that is where I inserted the web gallery. The main content css height is set at Auto. The web gallery shows up but only the very top half of the gallery. The whole web gallery wont push down the main content section so you can see the whole gallery. If I set the main content at height 700px then the whole gallery shows up, but because this is a template it screws up all my other pages because of the height setting. I need that to be variable. What am I doing wrong?

    Most likely that main content area also contains a floated element and you are not clearing the float before closing the main content container. Floated elements are removed from the normal flow. Being removed from the normal flow means that a container for that floated element does not regard the floated element as being in it, and will collapse around its non-floated content. To prevent this from happening you should clear the float before closing the container, e.g.,
    <div>
    <img src="very-tall-image.jpg" style="float:left">
    <p>some content</p>
    </div>
    This div will only be as tall as the paragraph tag requires, thus truncating the image.
    But here -
    <div>
    <img src="very-tall-image.jpg" style="float:left">
    <p>some content</p>
    <div style="clear:left;"></div>
    </div>
    This div will show the whole image.

  • My imported photos won't upload to my photostream.

    I imported photos from my camera.  I shared the photos to photostream and it says uploading images in the right hand corner but days have gone by and it won't upload.  I have rebooted, turned off photostream and restarted it and reshared the images but nothing happens.  I am very frustrated.

  • Uploading photos from browser to an existing Web Gallery

    Hi:
    This question is related with this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1077164&tstart=15
    but I fell that not receiving the right answer because the topic doesn't describe the problem fine.
    I uploaded a web gallery from iPhoto with success, but when try to add pictures using the upload feature in the Gallery itself in the browser, the process run fine but the new photo never appears in the gallery and cannot find it uploaded in to the iDisk either.
    Tried updating the gallery from iPhoto but no success.
    Hope someone can give some directions. Thanks in advance.

    Hi:
    I can upload using the email feature, but no way with the upload button. Anyone?

  • Photos uploaded to my Web Gallery show up where in iPhoto??

    I created a Web Gallery and asked my family to add to it - which they have done. I see the photos in iPhoto under the 'MOBILEME GALLERY' in the sidebar - but they are not in any of the Events. When I try to manually add the photo, it says it's already in the library?!!?
    I have tried labeling the photos and then finding them via an iPhoto search, but they just aren't there.
    Where does iPhoto put photos added via Web Gallery??

    Yes - that was one of the 1st things I tried. I also gave the photos specific keywords only used on those photos, "yellow" for example. Searching photos for any photo having the keyword "yellow" shows no results.
    If I right click on the photos in the MOBILEME GALLERY sidebar of iPhoto and click 'Show File' - it opens a folder named 'Jan 18, 2008', and the photos are sitting there.
    Dragging the actual files to a new gallery gives the same warning, that the files are already in the library.

  • IPhoto wants to import photos that have already been imported

    A couple of days ago I upgraded my iPhone to iOS 5 - today was the first time since the upgrade that I've tried to import photos. I have about dozen or so new photos and videos on my iPhone to import, however iPhoto is showing 246 photos to be imported. The other 200+ photos were already imported from the iPhone (and have been in the library for a few years now) so why is iPhoto asking to import them again?? Shouldn't it recognize that it has already imported them?
    I should note that I have over 2,000 photos in my iPhoto library; so not sure why it chose these particular 200+ photos to import again.
    If I have no choice but to import those photos again, is there a way that I can check and get rid of duplicates in iPhoto? Short of manually searching and deleting them one-by-one?
    Thanks!

    I've just found this discussion, I too have the same problem:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3429399
    I have already submitted feedback to apple... Hope for the best..
    Did anyone tried to manually move the newly imported video in the folder of the event where it belongs?
    I am afraid of messing things up.. If it is a problem of "flagging" the file at the filesystem level maybe this could help.. but if the flagging happens at the iPhoto Library level... no hope:(

  • Imported photo all have three star ratings -- why?

    When importing photos from a card reader into LR 1.1 on an Intel Mac the photos are loaded into Lightroom with three star ratings. Why is this happening and how do I prevent it in the future? I want the photos to come clean from the memory card.
    After editing on my laptop on the road I want the images to retain the ratings I assign when I export them to an external hard drive and then import them to my desktop Mac for further work. I'm afraid that Lightroom will import all images into my desktop with three star ratings, thereby wiping out my earlier rankings.

    Do you have more than one Computer? or can you install 1.2 under another user and try again?
    Like I said, I have never heard of this sort of thing happening before And I have used LR since Beta 1.

  • How do I type captions to the photos my friends send to my web gallery ?

    Web gallery is great...yet can I add captions like I did with my own photos?

    Once you refresh your gallery in iPhoto and get the externally added photos to show, just change the title in the web galley and republish. The online photo will be changed to what you entered in iPhoto.
    Do you Twango?
