IPhone and web galleries

I've made several web galleries via the new iPhoto and put them on my .mac site. When I go to view the gallery from my iPhone I never get past the login window. I type the password really carefully and it just gives me a new blank login window again. It works when I check the gallery from my desktop computer.
Thanks for any help.

Ok - so I think i may have the solution. Apparently, my album name had double quotes in there..( " ). That's what was causing the problem. If I remove the quotes from the name, the iPhone now seems to be perfectly happy with the album.
This seems to be a bug in the way Web Galleries work, but for now, ensuring that the web gallery does not have any special characters may be a start.

  • Client Selection Ability Option in PDF and Web Galleries

    A great improvement for the output section of Bridge would be for selection ability in PDF and Web Galleries.
    I can send clients a pdf or web gallery that has a checkbox for each image. My clients would be able to check the images they want and click submit.
    It would be easier then to taylor fees on a per image basis.
    I would love to hear from other photographers to see if they think having the selection ability option could help speed up the workflow.
    Thanks.

    This would be a feature sorely needed by the otherwise great galleries.  I wonder if any third party has modified a script or something for this?

  • CS4 Bridge and Web Galleries

    This is probably nit-picking, but I liked a web gallery which I have been using on a site which has about 13 galleries on it. The choices for web galleries in CS4 are OK, but when I checked the file size on a web gallery in CS4 with an identical one I did with CS3, the size was about 5 times as large.
    Since I have upgraded to CS4, the old CS3 Bridge isn't available (to my knowledge) and I had to move all the photos from Bridge in CS4 to a folder so I could access the web gallery from CS3.
    Tell me if there is an easier way to use the old web gallery directly from CS4 or a way to access the old Bridge from CS3?

    Hi all<br />It is still possible to create webgalleries and contactsheets in CS4, but you have to copy some files and folders from a folder called Goodies which you can find on you install disk or download as extras from Adobe.com. <br />In the "...Goodies\Optional plug-ins" folder there is a OptionalPluginsReadMe.pdf where they among other things write:<br /><br />"1. From the Photoshop CS4 install disc, drop the //<language>/Goodies/Optional plug-<br />Ins/Automate/WebContactSheetII plug-in into the //Adobe Photoshop CS4/Plugins/<br />Automate folder<br /><br />2. From the Photoshop CS4 install disc, drop the //<language>/Goodies/Presets/Web Photo<br />Gallery folder into the //Adobe Photoshop CS4/Presets folder and then restart Photoshop."

  • IPhoto and compression of uploads to iWeb albums and Web Galleries?

    It appears it's been established that iPhoto automatically sizes uploads to Web Galleries and iWeb albums to 800x600 no matter the resolution of the original picture.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5118968#5118968
    You can clumsily work around this in Web Gallery by uploading directly through the gallery upload button or via email, as discussed here.
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=5168599#5168599
    What I'm wondering is whether there's a way to do something similar in an iWeb album? My experience is that even if I do specify the option in the photo inspector to allow Original (Full Quality) downloads from the album, the files are still heavily compressed somewhere along the line, with 2.2MB originals coming back at 650KB or so.
    Can anyone shed any light on this?

    Hi.
    I don't have iPhoto 08 yet, but had a similar concern in iPhoto 6. I let iWweb do it's thing and then overwrote the images that it produced.
    How? I edited the photos to the way I wanted them in Photoshop or Aperture(!) and saved it out to the largest size (800x600, I believe). Then I set up an Automator action to dupe and resize the pictures to the thumbnail size. When done, I moved the files to my iDisk and put em wher they belong.
    It's a bit of a hassle, but I got the quality that I wanted...also, not sure if that'll work in 08...

  • Versions and Web galleries

    When creating a web gallery I have noticed that only the pick of the stack is able to be published to the web page. What do you have to do to get multiple versions on a page for viewing. Can you split the version set like you do with stacks and then send each image to the web gallery. The whole point of versions to me is to present variations to your clients (color, crop, B+W, etc) so they can select the best one. If you can't publish this to web that's pretty weak.
    Thanks for the help.

    the versions act like stacks ... you can split them at will ...
    and yes web galleries only take the pick of the stack ...
    at first i too was troubled by this, however i have adapted and am now quite pleased that it does this, as it allows me to play around with images and only have my pick show ... if i want multiple versions, i just extract from stack ...

  • Multiple Libraries and Web Galleries

    I just upgraded to iLife 08 and I'm wondering if the web gallery feature is compatible with the web galleries feature.
    Here's my situation: I have several three primary iPhoto libraries: one of family pix, one of photos from Congo, related to my aunt and uncle's mission work (which I use for their website), and one related to the ministry of my husband's church. I have one .mac account.
    If possible, I want to create web galleries using two of these iPhoto libraries, but I'm worried that when I "publish" galleries from the Congo library that the galleries I previously published from my family library will be erased from my iDisk. I searched the forums but I didn't find any discussion of this. Does anyone else have any experience in this regard?
    Thanks,
    kabing

    kabing:
    Web galleries published from different libraries will not remove previously published galleries. Just make sure the gallery names are not the same.
    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.

  • Iweb and web galleries?

    i need to use a password protected program to host online albums for clients through my website. 1) i have no idea how to do this and 2) where to get it... my website is hosted through godaddy.com but is created through iweb.
    - i have been told simple viewer and web gallery wizzard (although i dont know if thats PC only) but im not sure how either works effectively - and/or how to plug them into my website
    anyone have any suggestions or links to help?
    thanks in advance..

    You can create a password protected site with a photo gallery and slideshow with iWeb. If you need more than one site, you can create additional sites, each password protected separately in iWeb.
    If you decide to create multiple sites that way you might want to coinsider using iWebSites. One way to handle multiple sites is to use iWebSites. It lets me create multiple sites and multiple domain files. If you have multiple sites in one domain file here's the workflow I used to split them into individual site files with iWebSites.
    This lets me edit several sites and only republish the one I want.

  • Big Blunder with movies in iPhoto '08 and web galleries

    I've just upgraded to iLife '08 and found a REALLY BIG BLUNDER in the use of movies with iPhoto and the web gallery. As it is, the new 10GB limit won't be enough for diddly squat of movie hosting.
    I've got a Canon A640 that saves to .JPG and .AVI formats. iPhoto opens a gallery with them just fine.
    But .AVI movies take up ~50MB per minute of video. A 2 minute movie I made is about 100 MB, while a 9 minute movie is 550MB in size. So while it's fine to view them on your desktop, you do NOT want to upload them!
    However, iPhoto has no ability to convert .AVIs to any other formats.
    I went into iMovie and manually selected each .AVI clip and Exported it as "medium" to my local drive. Ok, this gets you a .m4v file that's much more workable.
    Going back to iPhoto ... uh, gee, "iPhoto cannot recognize that file format".
    The new iMovie can export exactly ONE format -- .m4v -- and iPhoto thinks it's an iTunes file and won't work with it. Thanks a lot guys. What movie format IS iPhoto expecting to use, exactly?
    I went over to the Apple store and presented my dilemma to one of the geniuses there, and the ONLY solution he could recommend was to get a license for Quicktime Pro and use it to do the conversion to .MP4. But, even then, iPhoto won't recognize .MP4 files in your folder. You have to explicitly import them. Again, iPhoto seems to like movies, but ... in what formats?
    As an aside, MP4 files are smaller than M4V files, but the additional compression takes quite a toll on the image quality.
    I filled up two 4GB SD chips with a couple dozen photos and several movies. The way iPhoto works right now, the only way to get these movies onto a .Mac gallery is to upload them directly, which is NOT a good idea! They take up an ENORMOUS amount of disk space, take FOREVER to upload, and I doubt users will find it very fun waiting for a 500MB download to view them (which download will take longer than the length of the video being viewed).
    iPhoto needs a way to recognize .AVI files and STRONGLY discourage you from uploading them -- offering instead to convert them to something more useful, like .M4V format, WITHOUT having to swith over to iMovie or use Quicktime or some other program to do the conversion.
    It also needs a way to tell it to handle other movie file format besides .AVI files.
    Thanks
    -David

    Errrr.... you guys are totally missing the point.
    Apple sells little Canon cameras, and they have them sitting right next to just about every Mac in the store. Ever noticed them? Maybe you own one? (I suspect not because you probably would have noticed this already if you did.)
    These Canon cameras take two types of images: stills are .JPGs and movies are .AVIs. Got that?
    JPGs are compressed and "ready to use".
    AVIs are UN-compressed and NOT "ready to use". You can play them locally and they look fine. But there's not much to tell you they're HUGE FILES. When I say "huge", I'm taling 50 MEGA-BYTES PER MINUTE huge. That means a measley 2 minute clip is 100 MEGA-BYTES in size. OK? Now, what's the download rate on your iPhone? How long will it take you to view a 2-minute AVI file? But, surely, nobody is dumb enough to load them onto their Web Gallery, right? Keep on reading.
    See, when you connect the camera to the computer, most people have their system set to open something like iPhoto or Aperture when the camera is connected. Agreed? (Maybe YOU don't, but LOTS of people DO.)
    Notice that you can choose to have iMovie or Final Cut Pro or something else launch when you plug the camera in as well. It's up to you. Most people launch iPhoto - or Aperture if they've got it.
    It so happens that iPhoto '08 loads in in BOTH sets of files. Why in the world iPhoto is happy reading in AVI files is beyond me, considering it won't recognize M4V files and has to be slapped to get it to take MP4 files. But it happily reads AVI files with no problem.
    Now, if you've got your iPhoto set to AUTOMATICALLY SYNCHRONIZE with your WEB GALLERY, what happens?
    Well, if you're like me and you filled two 4-GIGA-BYTE Flash cards with movies, and iPhoto launches (like when you plug the camera or flash memory into the computer) and starts to SYNCHRONIZE with your WEB GALLERY, what's gonna happen?
    Did you actually TELL it to upload those files? NOPE! But it DID!
    Several HOURS LATER your computer will finish UPLOADING 8 GIGA-BYTES of MOVIES to your WEB GALLERY! And if you interrupt it, well, it'll happily start over when you turn the computer back on again.
    That's really nice since .Mac now has a 10 GByte limit. Two and a half 4-GB flash cards will fill up your .Mac account if you shoot movies with your Canon camera, have iPhoto set to launch when you attach your camera, and/or have it set to automatically synchronize with your web gallery.
    All I'm saying is that if iPhoto is going to work with movie files, it should NOT blindly upload AVI files, NO WAY. I'd much prefer it if it would let you apply some kind of compression to them, eg., turn them into MP2 files. (MOV files are even bigger than AVI files, from what I can tell.)
    We're not talking about what you THINK about doing. We're talking about the DEFAULT BEHAVIOR of the program for a VERY COMMON SCENARIO -- that you don't HAVE to think about.
    So it's very possible that while you're happily editing your AVI movies in iMovie or Final Cut, iPhoto is happily sitting in the background uploading the same files to your Web Gallery. And you are clueless.
    Is that making sense now?

  • TS1307 cannot recognize mail password and will not send mail..iphone and web work mail no problem

    mail will not send and continuously asks for password and rejects last documented password change. I cannot send mail only receive it on the MacBookPro BUT...I can get web mail and use send on iphone...mail cannot be recieved on iphone now.
    help thankss

    Use the Apple Mail Connection Doctor (Apple Mail's Window menu > Connection Doctor) as a first step.
    Also recognize that Apple Mail tends to (also) toss out the same password error dialog for errors other than password errors.  This means that network errors and network configuration can be reported as password errors.  (And folks that receive the password errors can then reasonably try different passwords, which means that the wrong password can (also) then get recorded in Keychain.)

  • Jpg and web galleries

    I want to click on a picture be taken to the large version and then be able to click on that to download the photo. However, I want to download a large jpg that can be printed at 8x10. If I click on the xxx_large.jpg I only get the larger thumbnail type jpg. Thank you very much.

    There are a number of galleries that do this already, try http://theturninggate.net. If this is a feature request, you're in the wrong place, try http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/products/photoshop_family_photoshop_lightro om

  • Watermarks and web galleries

    When done editing my pictures, I've been exporting them to a folder on the desktop (so I can place a watermark on the pictures) and them importing the pictures into iWeb. Is there a way of importing the watermarked pictures directly into a web gallery from the folder?

    Why don't you use Aperture for the whole workflow?
    You can create web pages and add watermarks on publishing your gallery all in one operation directly from within Aperture instead of exporting images to a folder, importing into iWeb and then publish you images.
    If you have to use iWeb you can add watermarks when you export your images from Aperture.
    You can use drag and drop to get your images into iWeb fast.

  • Stacks and web galleries

    Hi,
    I have a project full of photos and I want to put up a before and after correction web gallery. I have made my corrected pictures the pick of the stack. I then bring the stack into my web gallery, but when I de stack them I get the result I need in the web gallery, but it also de stacks them in my smart lists and project.
    Is their a way to de stack only in a web gallery, or achive the same thing another way?
    Best wishes
    Michael

    You need to use Album picks. This is exactly what they are for!
    http://www.bagelturf.com/aparticles/stacks/albumpicks/index.html
    http://www.bagelturf.com/aparticles/stacks/albums/index.html
    A book or a web gallery is just another album, so they can have their own album picks.

  • Hidden Photos and Web Galleries

    Looks like if you have an event with contains some hidden photos and you publish the event to a web gallery, the hidden photos also get published.
    Is there any say to prevent these from being published?
    Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. No, the web gallery will include all photos in the album or gallery. You can change how you create the web gallery. Open the event, select the photos, not the album icon, and create the event from just the selected photos. That should exclude the hidden photos.
    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) 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger 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.
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Accessing Aperture Web Galleries through the iPhone

    Is there a way of getting my aperture web galleries to show up on my iPhone? The only web galleries that show up are those I created with iPhoto.

    I assume you are syncing your photos to your phone through iTunes, and you have figured out that you have to choose Aperture to sync with. But when you choose Selected Albums, you also noticed that your Web Galleries are missing from the menu. I suppose this is because Web Galleries are not Albums. You would have to create albums of those web galleries in order to selectively sync them to your phone. This doesn't require any more disk space of course so there is no worries there, it just means that now you'll have an Album, and a Gallery of the same images. That's kind of lame. Apple should allow us to sync the iPhone to Web Galleries as well as albums.

  • Aperture 2, Stacks and Web Gallery

    I have had so many issues with this lately. I shot photos today, picked my favorites and created a web gallery. I then ordered my 40 photos in the web gallery in a very specific order to tell a story.
    1st I noticed that the order sorted some how and I lost my custom sort. So I reordered it into a specific order.
    Then I was working with stacks. I wanted to organize the rest of the photos in the project to find others that I missed before and to promote images to find better picks.
    Then I noticed the Web Gallery would then automatically add all images in the stack next to the single photo in the Web Gallery.
    2nd. My web gallery has hundreds of photos, mostly ones that I did not want displayed. Also my custom order was lost and I once again had to try to reorganize.
    To make what could be a longer story short, I had to break all the stacks that I spent time on in order to remove the unwanted photos from the web gallery.
    Are we forced to make a choice between using Stacks and Web Galleries? Can they NEVER be used together?

    After much frustration and time looking at this issue, and reading this topic in forums, discussions and the Aperture User Manual (pg. 562 - 567) - for which there is no clear explanation of this - You can only use the stack pick in the Web Gallery.
    Exactly!
    Which means : If you want maximum flexibility in creating Web Galleries, DO NOT use stacks.
    I suppose this depends on what you are using stacks for. If you are grouping images in stacks that you want to use, you can certainly do that, but that will be problematic in Aperture in places other than gallery, because that is simply not what stacks are designed to do. If you have several shots so similar you will only use one, but don't want to throw the rest away (you might change your mind later) put them in a stack. Makes it easy to compare and "pick" which one to output. If you have a number of photos that are roughly similar, but you will be using more than one - you can initially stack them, but will probably be better off splitting the stack later. Say I am shooting sports and get a high-speed sequence of a breakaway. I could put the whole sequence in a stack initially, but some of those images are different enough that I might want to publish two or three (out of, say, 15 shots). I might get them all in one stack through auto stack, or even manually stack them initially, but I will probably set one pick and extract a few others. The alternates will be there in case I find a use for them later. Same thing with portraiture. When shooting portraits, I can get a lot of almost identical images - with small nuances in facial expression being the only difference. Another kind of stacking I often do is when I create new versions from the master and make color and exposure adjustments.
    What happens to the thousands of stacks that people have already created in Aperture and would like to simply get photographs online? You must rework your entire organization (if you use stacks) to accommodate this inconsistency.
    I think Aperture is actually pretty consistent regarding stacks and alternates. Alternates are ignored if you try to create a web journal, web gallery, web page, or a book. I see no problem getting them online - the picks will display, extract alternates if you want them to display also.
    And to further complicate a situation, when you select one photograph in a stack, and create a 'Web Gallery', once created, every photograph in that stack is put into the 'Web Gallery'
    In other words, there is no 'Ignore Stack Groupings' option in Web Galleries and since Picks can be anywhere in the stack - this creates an organizational nightmare.
    Yes, if you try to drag a single image to another project or album, the rest of the stack comes along for the ride. I know this bugs you, but I actually like the way it works. Where you see this as inconsistent - I see it being very consistent. If I create a stack - that stack is identical in all locations. I can change the pick for different albums, but if i alter a stack in any other way - it is changed everywhere. This doesn't take up an real space on your computer - it is all just referencing back to the master images anyway. If seeing all those alternates in the stack bother you, just close the stack By the way, your pick cannot be "anywhere in a stack" - the pick is always on top. Your "album pick" can be anywhere in a stack, but close the stack and the album pick is what you will see.
    Maybe you would do better using albums for the kind of organization you are doing - it sounds to me like you are using stacks kind of like albums anyway. Just select a stack and "create album from selection." Then you can unstack your stacks and work with albums instead. Then when you drag an image to a web gallery you won't get alternates.
    But leave the stacks the way they are please - I love them just the way they are
