IPhoto 6 MobileMe Albums Missing

I came back to my computer today and noticed in iPhoto that all of my .mac/Mobile Me albums were missing. Does anyone know how to sync iPhoto with MobileMe galleries or another way to get them back? Just the albums are missing, crazy!

I did that a couple of days ago. But after I while the problem re-appeared. I used Photoshop for editing, so probably that is one of the issues.
So after several times of trying this solution, I decided to go the hard way and export the corrupted files to the desktops, delete them from iphoto, and re-import them back. That seems to do the job...Frustrating, I know, but so far effective

Iphoto and mobileme

I've noticed that in iphoto my mobileme albums that sync with my albums on mobileme have disappeared. The albums are still on the web at my mobileme account and the preferences are checked to sync with iphoto, but still aren't there.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Are the photos still in your library? Where is this "other folder"? Are you referring to an Event? When MMe went away and one upgraded iPhoto to the newer version the MMe/Web section was removed and replace by the iCloud section. No photos that have been inported into iPhoto previously were deleted from the library.

How do I get iPhoto to stop asking to merge MobileMe Albums?

How do I get iPhoto to stop trying to merge MobileMe Albums? I don't have any! I never did!!! The problem is that each time I open iPhoto it wants to merge something that doesn't even exist.

When the "mobile Me" alert panel appears, select the "Learn more" button, not o.k. Ignore the web page that will open,
Then open the "iPhoto preferences > Accounts" panel and remove the Mobile Me account.
Also open the System preferences , go to the "Mobile Me" preferences and sign out of Mobile Me.

IPhoto Albums and MobileMe Albums - Synchronization (Sync)

I am very interested in how the iPhoto and MobileMe operate together.
I like that if I publish an album to MobileMe, those photos are then kept in sync with that MobileMe album and vice versa. If a change is made to the photo in iPhoto, the same change takes place in MobileMe. If a change is made in MobileMe, that change is pushed to the copy in iPhoto. I like this!
But here is something I would like that I am having trouble accomplishing.
I want to create an iPhoto album (smart or otherwise) and publish it to MobileMe. I would then like any photos ADDED to that album to also be published the same MobileMe album. Can this be done?
Ideally, any photos also posted directly to the MobileMe album would be pushed back to the iPhoto album as well.

No. Instead of adding the photo to the album just drag it into the MMe gallery and it will update the online gallery.

MobileMe albums not visible in Aperture after upgrade from iPhoto

I've just upgraded from iPhoto to Aperture and all went well, except that my mobileme albums aren't appearing. I published a test album which worked, but my existing ones don't appear.
I've read on another thread that a dodgy character in an album name caused a similar problem but I can't see anything that looks odd in my mobileme album names.
Any ideas?

I had the exact problem and found the solution here.

Updating sync between iphoto album and mobileme album

I have created a 'mobileme album' from an album in iphoto. However when i add a new photo to the 'iphoto album' it does automatically sync into the 'mobileme album'. Should this happen or do i need to recreate the mobileme album every time?

Neither
Just drag the new photo(s) to the MobileMe gallery in the source pane on the left under MobileMe galleries (and to the original album too as a backup) it will update automatically - do not make additional changes while it is updating - this may cause problems and duplications
MobileMe is updated when- and only when - you change the gallery in the MobileMe gallery section of your source pane.

Every time I launch iPhoto I get a "Moving MobileMe albums..." message

And a never ending wheel spin - program frozen. Relaunching, rebooting and repairing the database have not helped. All software is current. I have a 2010 iMac. All help greaty appreciated! Be more than happy to just delete the MobileMe albums.

(Force) Quit iPhoto, then relaunch.
When you see the "Mobile Me" panel, press the "learn more" button, not the "o.k." button.
In iPhoto open the Preferences, "Accounts" tab, and delete the Mobile Me Account.
Then go to the System Preferences - Mobile Me Tab- and sign out of Mobile Me or press the "Visit me-com" button to go to your galleries and delete or download the albums.

MobileMe album doesnt show in iPhoto

I uploaded two albums last night and i left the computer alone and when i returned i saw that iPhoto had crashed. When i reopened iPhoto i saw that the two albums i uploaded showed up in the mobileme dropdown but when i clicked on them to see the photos i couldnt see any of the pictures. Then i logged into me.com and i saw that there were duplicates where the duplicates had 0 images in them and the other two had all the uploaded images. So i went back into iphoto and deleted the two mobileme albums that had no images in them. Now I'm trying to get the two albums on my mobileme gallery to show up in the mobilme iphoto dropdwon menu. How can i do that?
Thanks

Hi Matiar. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Now I'm trying to get the two albums on my mobileme gallery to show up in the mobilme iphoto dropdwon menu. How can i do that?
Unfortunately, that won't work. As you state, the galleries have "0" images in them. So you should probably delete those corrupt galleries and start again. Log back in to your MobileMe account online:
www.me.com
...go to the galleries in question and delete them there. Then recreate the albums again in iPhoto, and upload them to your MobileMe account once more. That should work. But as long as the corrupt galleries remain online you will have problems. Cheers!

HT5132 If I've already moved MobileMe albums to iPhoto, how can I stop the prompt asking me to move them to Aperture?

If I've already moved MobileMe albums to iPhoto, how can I stop the prompt asking me to move them to Aperture?

To William Lloyds recommendation I have to add the following: I tried to implement the suggestion and thus to have the Mobileme-account closed to avoid the lenghty process mentioned, however, I am given to understand that if one choose to have the account closed, ALL of the galleries/albums etc, so far hosted within Mobileme will ALSO be deleted within APERTURE!! And that is not exactly what I want, in as much as I am intending to move everything (Galleries etc) to Smugmug...any suggestions as to eliminate the migration suggeted within Aperture?

IPhoto albums missing

After no space on start disk, restart and empting trash all albums but the last one created are gone.
The events are there, but all albums missing.
Please help,
Lior

One response given by Terence to the missing iPhoto album problem was that there was insufficient space on the hard drive and the library was subsequently damaged. However, I have 490 gb on my hard drive and I've just lost all of my albums in iPhoto '11. All pics and events are available. I was all ready to say that this is not the problem and was preparing myself for psychological devastation because I lost all of those carefully constructed albums.
However, I figured out the real problem--at least in my case. For some reason, the albums were just hidden from my view. I just accidentally discovered that when I hovered over the word "Albums" in my iPhoto library view, a link that said "show" popped up to the right. All I had to do was to select "show" and--poof--all of my albums were visible again. (No psychological devastation now necessary!) I don't know how this got changed because I've never intentionally selected "hide." Nonetheless, this might be the problem for others as well.

I have multiple iPhoto albums, so this move is pushing thousands of pictures to each library. Why doesn't this come with a "No, Thanks!" option since I've ALREADY ensured the MobileMe albums were captured? I've never seen Apple force an action like this!
Worse - According to http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4328, "photos you published to MobileMe from your library may be moved from their original events into a new event called "From MobileMe"." - so the forced move has probably scrambled my events in every library. The 'fix'? Search for matching photos and if not found, copy and paste into the desired event. It will take DAYS for me to recover from this undesired and ill-considered forced action.

Load your backup from just before this and when you launch iPhoto click on learn more. Go back to iPhoto and in the iPhoto preferences remove all references to MM and do likewise in the system preferences

"Tell a Friend" email from MobileMe album - no images or formatting

When I use "tell a friend" from a MobileMe album, it usually calls up "mail" with fancy body text with images of the key album photo with links and a nice layout.
Now, when I use it, it just comes up with plain text as the email message. I don't know why or how I can change it back to the way it used to be.
I've tried rebuilding the iPhoto library using the cmd+option launch and checking the last three boxes. Anything else I have missed out? I'm not using any email encryption software as well. Just Apple "mail".
Thanks,
Howie

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Is your Mail preferences set for RTF formatting or just plain text? That might be the reason. Set it to RTF if it's not that already. Other than that try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, reboot and try again.

How do I split my albums in iPhoto, so not albums to bee seen, only 1?

How do I split, or seperate, my albums in iPhoto, so not all albums can be seen at once?? This, if I send the link to someone, about +one specific album+.
Some albums are for other eyes only.......
Now, it seems, that everybody can see ALL the albums, after they have received the link for just 1 album.....
Help!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If you're referring to MobileMe albums created from iPhoto bring up the Info window while viewing the gallery and click on the Change Settings button.
Next check the Hide album on my gallery page checkbox and set the Album Viewable by: to Everyone. Now you can send the URL for the gallery to visitors and when they go to the gallery they will not see the other albums.
Click to view full size
This will give you a galley like this one: Space Station Photos. It's isolated from the other albums in my gallery.

IWeb 08 / Aperture 2 / MobileMe albums "No albums or movies available"

I've searched the forums and there doesn't seem to be a resolution for this. It seems the issue has been known about for quite some time now; hard to believe Apple is just ignoring this.
basics:
I created MobileMe albums via Aperture 2. I open iWeb '08 and go to insert the album and get this message: "No albums or movies available"; this message also appears via the Widget add. The albums are NOT password protected.

Well I have found a work around... Though others need to test it as well as me.
Log into me.com and open the gallery you prepared in aperture.
Select the "Adjust the settings for this album" button at the top, then select the pop-up that says "Syncs with" and choose "iPhoto" instead of "Aperture".
Press "Publish".
That's it, the gallery now appears in the iWeb Widgets list!
Also it still syncs with Aperture, both way

IPhoto 11 & MobileMe Gallery

iPhoto 11 + MobileMe Gallery.
All the iPhoto Albums are shared (synced) with Me Gallery.
I'd like to know what is the best way to have all the changes synced.
For example, when I make changes in an album (add or delete photos) I' d like to have the changes also appear on Me gallery.

I am not happy. I hope the guy who wrote the new codes will just talk with the people who wrote the iPhoto 9 codes and also talk with the guys who wrote the MobileMe Gallery codes. It gives people the impression that the left hand does not know what the right hand is doing. This may affect the Apple stock price. Wonder if Steve is aware of the problem; does he use iPhoto 11 and MobileMe; does he permit it; and what is he doing about it. This has been taking way too long to resolve.
