Importing photos to Pages ( or Iweb for that Matter )

Just installed Ilife 08 and Iphoto seems to be working fine in and of itself but I am having trouble accessing my Iphoto Library from Pages ( and Iweb ). If I have an open Pages document and I try to import a picture to use in that document, the Iphoto Library is greyed out: I cannot access the contents to make use of my photos. Any ideas??

you should read TD's discussion in this thread - http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1243085&tstart=90 - to see the other options and ot understand teh potential issues of directly accessing the iPhoto library

Can 'SUBSCRIBE' be removed from photo template pages in iWeb??

I am using photo template pages on my website (designed in iWeb 08). My site is an artist portfolio site so the photo template pages work well for dealing with all the art images I am posting.
One problem: there is a subscribe button on my pages which lets people subscribe to my iPhoto library. I cannot figure out how to remove it.
Any ideas on this?
Thanks!
Christine

Click on the Inspector at the bottom of your photo page, then click on the Photos Inspector (just to the left of RSS).
Next click on the Photos button, then uncheck "Allow visitors to subscribe".
The Subscribe button will disappear from your page.

When I connect my ipad to the computer and click import photos and videos, the computer says that there are no photos or videos on the ipad it says the file is empty I can't even add anything to the file!!!!!

It looks like the card may be the problem, and your best bet is to try the Card Reader - this will make the card accessible by the Finder and you may be able to drag the pics off to the desktop or, at worst, try recover the pics with an app like MediaRecover

HT201302 When I try to import photos and videos, I'm told that there are none

When I try to import photos and videos, I'm told that there are none. And when I go into the DCIM folder (the only folder I can see), there are no files inside. What else can I do to move my photos onto my PC?

Are the photos in question in the Camera Roll of the iPad? If not, where on the iPad are they (in what part of what app do they appear)?

On my Ipad 2, I deleted my photos from camera roll, photo stream and imported photos. I did not know that my photos were also being deleted from my albums. Is there anyway I can retrieve these photos from back up or from Icloud ? Pierre

If you have a current iCloud or iTunes backup you can restore to that.

TS4062 I've done all of these recommended steps. My problem is that I have a new laptop that I am trying to sync my iPhone (and iPad for that matter) via Wi-Fi but both devices are looking for the old laptop to sync. Any other suggestions?

I've done all of these recommended steps. My problem is that I have a new laptop that I am trying to sync my iPhone (and iPad for that matter) via Wi-Fi but both devices are looking for the old laptop to sync. My iTunes is version 11.0..3.42, iPhone is 6.1.4, and iPad 6.1.3. Any suggestions?

All I had to do was complain. I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store. I have no idea why.

When will OS X Lion be compatible with Avid's Pro Tools 9, or any Pro Tools for that matter?

When will OS X Lion be compatible with Avid's Pro Tools 9, or any Pro Tools for that matter?

There's less money to be made from compatibility than there is from "forced upgrades." Why would AVID be concerned with their older product working with the new OS when they can release another version for people to pay $250+ for? Free bug-fix download vs. latest software upgrade? You've got two companies with virtual monopolies on the pro audio market. It's a win-win for them.
So what does that say to me about the handful that do not? The incompatibility is a marketing decision, not a shortcoming.
Am I close?

Photo gallery page from iWeb '08 doesn't work for Mac OS X 10.3.9 user?

I have recently published a photo gallery page with comments on using iWeb '08 (latest update). Displays fine for me and apparently a lot of other mixed-platform users. But one user is saying that his eMac with Mac OS X 10.3.9 and the Safari of the day don't display the pictures. He gets the banner and background image for the gallery, but not the actual pictures. I asked him to try Firefox, but so far no reply on that.
Do the older versions of Safari work with content from iWeb '08?

It was no different when AOL went from version 3 to version 4.
The very complex javascript files written by iWeb 2 still allow older browsers view (limited features) view the basic parts of your pages.
Unfortunately this is not true. On an iMac G4 10.3.9 using Safari you cannot even view the photos, the photo page or even the web gallery itself. You just get a warning. Had I known that my friends and family would have a problem viewing photos I would have passed on the update. I don't expect my Father to upgrade his system to view photos from the "user friendly" Apple programs. That's why we got him an iMac to begin with. I find iLife 08 a very poor release from Apple and more trouble than it is worth.
It was no different when AOL went from version 3 to version 4.
I didn't know AOL even still existed, that alone upgraded!? (haha)
+The images should load but many of the Web 2.0 features will not work (image rollover viewing, changing dimensions or background colors).+
But Kirk, they don't, none of them! and this kind of stuff just seems crazy to some of us. I wish that Apple would TELL US or advertise the facts like, Oh, you only get ONE gallery for each user on Web Gallery (useless) and Oh, you will not be able to edit 06 iWeb pages with 08 iWeb and the iLife 08 version of iPhoto you will not be able to view these galleries without upgrading to the latest Safari web browser. Yes we always expect some bugs with a major update but this is getting ridiculous.
I have not yet had anybody try downloading the newest version of Firefox that will work with 10.3.9. Do you know if that will make a difference? Thanks for your help.

Photo Gallery page on iWeb - Sharing some experience....

I am an Aperture user and my starting point was to create nice web photo galleries from Aperture...
- I got quickly frustrated with the lack of customization of the standard Aperture Web pages (font, color, size...).
- Aperture 2.1 MobileMe galleries are a bit better but not what i wanted either.
- Then i found out that i could easily export photos from Aperture to iPhoto, and then from iPhoto to iWeb, and that iWeb would offer me more customization options.
- Following that route, i imported my Aperture photos into iPhoto, then used the Share/Send to iWeb/Photo Page function.
- Having some experience using iWeb, i was able to customize the template somehow, but got frustrated by the apparently fixed web page size, which at first seemed to stick to a 700x480 format for the photo gallery... and i would like to show the pics at around 1200x1200....
- Until i played with the Album style pop up window and found that depending on the style chosen, the photo gallery size could expand up to 1200 pix width ! (that with the Album style which is on 1st column/3rd row). But then double clicking on thumbnails would randomly expand the given picture to between 700 and 1200 pix width...
This is where i got to. Now a few questions, if you're still with me :
- Am i correct to assume that there is no direct interface available between Aperture and iWeb, and that i need to use this iPhoto intermediate step?
- Has anyone found a way to fully customize the size of photo galleries in iWeb (both for the thumbnail display area and for the magnified picture area)?
- If not, can someone point me to a comprehensive resource detailing the iWeb template creation steps ?
Thanks in advance, and to add a wish : could Mr Apple think of standardizing/optimizing/improving the web gallery generation process across its platform for the next versions ?

I've read in this forum that Aperture has a setting to make it's photos available to other iApps, see this post, via the Media browser but not galleries created by it in the Web Snippet menu, see the last post in this topic.

Trying to manipute the photo page in iweb for a single slide show

I want to add a slide show to my website that I am creating but I do not want all the photos shown individually the way they do on the photo page for all the iweb templates.
Can I import a slideshow from iphoto or do I need to create one somewhere else and then import it?

Importing Photos from iphoto to iweb in proper orientation

I have photos in iPhoto that I have rotated because they were shot vertically but when downloaded into iPhoto they are in a horizontal or "landscape" mode.
When I use the Media browser in iWeb, all images appear as they were originally downloaded, including those that I had rotated to upright position.
Can anyone tell me how to rotate those photos into an iWeb page?
G5 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I think it depends on how and when you rotated your images. If you uploaded to your desktop and rotated in Preview, then it only added a tag to tell the Mac how to display the image. The source file was not actually rotated. This would explain why the Media browser doesn't show the rotations.
Easy fix: import images to iPhoto as they come from the camera and rotate from inside iPhoto. This will create a Modified version of the photo that is actually rotated. The Media browser will show you your Modified versions, and they should go into iWeb correctly.

Hello, I´m using Lightroom 5 with all updates. If I import photos often I get the information, that some smart-"Vorschauen" could not create. I´m using a MacBook Pro. All other functions are well. What can I do?

If you need further information, feel free to contact me.

Hi Andy,
I'm using Mac OSX 10.7.5
No the one with the caps seems to be working normally.This project with the caps now has four files. Originally I created it with about fifteen. I deleted eleven of them and edited the remaining four. The four files each have one version and its original. It wasn't until after I completed this work that I noticed the privious project when opened and scrolled had the entire library in it.
The test I did went like this. With the problem opened I deleted one file that I new existed prior to this problem. I than opened that project that I new it was from to see if it got deleted and found it gone and moved to trash. I think that tells me that if I delete all the files in the problem project I'll be in trouble. I also have inported to projects each with one file that I edited. They are working fine. I took a look in the problem project and this last
two imports show the thumdnails in it.
Currently on my Hard Drive I have 275 GB free space. My photo's take up 138 GB. As I said on Dec. 1st I backed up the system using time machine. So all of Dec. and part of Jan. inports won't be on it. I could work around the problem project and move those file to a safe place. I think it best not to back up the system with Time Machine until I'm confident the Aperture is runing properly. I'm happy that I control these system backups manually.
I'll need to find out how to copy the Aperture library to another place. I'm sure I can poke around and fined out the process.
Thanks Andy for the come back!
