Shir - welcome to the Apple user discussion forums
I do not believe that there are any usage stats available for iPhoto web galleries - I have not found any
A good suggestion for Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback

IPhoto 08 Crashes during Web Gallery upload

I have been having trouble uploading a second Web Gallery to my .Mac website. iLife 08 installed fine and I was able to upload one Web Gallery but I have attempted to upload another and each time I upload the crash occurs.
There is approxmimately 400MB of photos and movies taken with a 7.1 megapixel Sony camera in this Web Gallery (all imported from camera using iPhoto). I don't think that 400MB could be consideredn as being too large that it causes this problem.
The biggest pain is that after the crash the whole 400+MB of photos have to be uploaded again from scratch, nothing is saved on the server. Is it possible to allow it to save uploads as they progress so this doesn't happen?
TIA

D2C:
Yes you can. Go to iPhoto's Preferences and in the Web Gallery section you can rename the gallery title.
Do you Twango?
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. 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.

IPhoto '08 & editing a Web Gallery page

Once iPhoto generates and uploads a Web Gallery, can the main page be edited??
Specifically, in the upper left corner is a rectangle with "My Gallery". I would like to edit that text - "Bob's Gallery" or "Susan's Gallery", etc.

How to I get uploaded web gallery photos to auto populate with my events?

When somebody uploads a photo in my web gallery, it syncs with the web gallery on iPhoto. However, it doesn't sync with the original event on iPhoto. I know I can drag the uploaded photo into the event. However, I have many photos and don't know when somebody has uploaded a photo and to which event in web gallery.
Is there any way around this?
Al

Taking this a step further...
I identify the photos that someone else has uploaded to my web gallery.
I select and drag these photos to "Events" in iPhoto, and this creates a new event.
I drag the new event onto the old event to consolidate the photos.
I edit the photos I want to keep and delete the rest.
However, this changes / removes the photos uploaded by the other person in the web gallery. So, what procedure should I have followed to prevent changing / deleting the photos from this person? I would prefer to keep all of the photos in the same event. Will the following work:
1) Select only the photos that I want
2) Create duplicates of them in the web gallery
3) Drag the duplicates to "Events" and consolidate these with my original event
4) Edit the photos
Or, is there a better way?

Can't upload web gallery in LR2

I have tried changing all settings per a search of the forum, but I still can't upload a gallery. I receive a "an error occurred sending file: an unknown error occured" this comes after the images and when it starts building the gallery. tried flash and http galleries, same thing. I can save and upload with cute ftp just fine, but not LR.
anyone know a good tutorial on web galleries?
Ron

Hello - I don't have a solution, but I wanted to post some observations: Each time I click upload, a folder is created or some files are transferred to the host until all the folders have been created on the remote host. In other words, the FTP transfer continues until a MKD command is sent to the host. After that, LR throws an error and stops.
I even went to the extent of deleting all the files from a working gallery structure on the remote host, leaving the folders intact. One click on "Upload" copied all the files into the structure as desired with no error message.
My analysis is that the return code from the FTP host following a successful MKD command is being misinterpreted my LR as an error.
This stops the FTP transfer, but the folder is OK and in the right place on the host. The next upload command either creates another folder, or copies files to the host. Once the folder structure has been created on the host and the Upload contains only files, it goes OK.
A crummy work-around would be to keep an empty gallery folder structure at the client end, copy that via another FTP host, then have LR fill it up.

Slide Shows in iLife, iPhoto, iWeb '08 and Web Gallery

I have iLife '08 abd thus iWeb '08 and developed my website in 2006 using iWeb '06. I also belong to .Mac and therefore have access to that Web Gallery or .Mac Gallery (unsure which name it has). I like the newer slide shows/carousels that are newly available and would like to know whether I can make such slide shows and place such slide shows in my iWeb website.
I realize that another alternative is to make a slide show and put it in the Web Gallery and access it in my website via a URL pointing to the slidehow.
Is it true that ALL OF THE VARIATIONS OF SLIDE SHOWS are created in iPhoto '08? If so, then I guess if I make the slideshows there, I can decide where I want to place them (in my website or in Web Gallery).

I have found an answer thanks to jaxjason in this post:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1086973&tstart=0
Go to web gallery, find out the album ID that you need to delete.
iDisk -> Web -> Sites -> _gallery
Delete the album ID of the albums that arn't in iphoto.
Then resync the albums missing.

Need help with uploading web gallery

When I try to upload a gallery, I recieve the following error message: An error occured sending the file: a response was not received in time.
How do I correct this?

Find the exported gallery on the hard drive, and open the index file in a web browser. If that works correctly, then yes, it's a problem that you'll need to discuss with your web host, rather than a Lightroom problem that we can help with, sorry.

Lightroom not uploading web gallery to Business Catalyst

I generated a photo gallery in Lightroom to use on my Business Catalyst hosted site, but when I go to upload the gallery I get an "unknown error has occurred". After searching this on Google, it appears that this is a rather common problem that has been going on for some time. Any idea why it happens? And more importantly, is there a way to fix it?
Thanks!

Blank page or one from the “home template” files put fine.
But when I use the “default template” nothing happens.
says it is putting and that transfer is complete… but nothing is there… see this page:

Broken links after uploading web site to server

We created our office's web site using Dreamweaver CS4, and uploaded it to the server of our ISP. Prior to uploading, we tested the site in both IE7 and Firefox, and everything worked fine. After uploading, however, all images are lost and several of our links are broken. Any suggestions on where to start looking and how to fix are very appreciated.

Your code is whacked. Your page can't find the Spry files. Your code is like this:
<link href="../SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script src="../SpryAssets/SpryMenuBar.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<link href="../SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarVertical.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
That dot-dot part (../) means the page needs to back up to the parent folder, then enter the SpryAssets folder. Same for your images and links:
<h1><a href="../Images/larger-logo.jpg"><img src="../Images/larger-logo.jpg" alt="logo" width="300" height="150" border="0" align="left" /></a></h1>
Looks like you used a Dreamweaver template and somehow your links/references got messed up. It has nothing to do with uploading to a server. The problem is most likely caused by [a] Dreamweaver site not properly configured, or [b] improper use of a Dreamweaver template. You'll need to either manually fix all the bad code or try to recreate a page based on the template - or even recreate the template.
First thing first - you need to understand the problem. Do you understand - looking at your code - what the problem is? Why those ../ are breaking things? Do you understand the concept of paths? You need to understand that before you can understand how to fix this.

Challenges with uploading web gallery !

Made a nice web gallery in Bridge and uploaded it to my web site, and through Dreamweaver I can see it is there, but there is no index page, and I have no way to access it. What do I do ?

Problem getting bg image to show after integrating Web Gallery in page

Hi,
I'm new to Dreamweaver this year just coming over from the bad guys. I was looking to create a web gallery for my client when I came across a great article by David Powers that really worked well and made it pretty simple. (see here)
http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/gallery/embed1.php
The only problem I'm having is I want to use the background on the page I've created and not use a background color. In both CS4 & 5 The Bridge doesn't give you an option that I could find to insert background image which would have solved everything. Seeing as I'm inserting one page using iforms makes it a bit complicated and I've tried for a couple days but I can't figure it out. I'm more a designer then coder and when it gets to this part I hate it.
The behind the scenes page can be found here. I"m not sure why its showing white but in theory that shouldn't matter as the colours in the bottom I want replaced with my backround image the same as in 'trimworks'.
http://www.homeworks4u.ca/Trimmwork.html
This is my first posting.
I've done as much reading on css and figuring out how to do the web gallary I've run out of time!
Thanks in advance,
Sc.

I checked and flash had it set to opaque...so I tried windows and still nothing. I didn't really want to try the last option as that will reduce performance and the images are already high rez as it is. And this was done thru Bridge. You'd think there would be an easy way just to get a background in instead of the colours. Unfortunatly Flash is covering the entire area that my client wants the background showing....this was a last minute thing...just like the image gallary...we were all set for flash video show with his own tv set and all. Now he's mad cause I can't get a background to work.
http://www.homeworks4u.ca/untitled-7trim.html
Is the page where both pages are combined....including the image gallary...
http://www.homeworks4u.ca/TrimworksWG.html ( don't be fooled, view sorce)
This is the page The Bridge creates and then used Iframes to put it in the above page and want the background to show thru, not the dark colours.
The last one was close, but now I'm afraid with flash completely overtop of the background it could be hopeless. I'm on a time constrain. You all know how it is with clients with every changing ideas 3 days before launch which was last week. Any ideas at all at this point would be helpful. He just wants a photogallary that he can see his background thru! I"m willing to change programs at this point if I have too for something that easily puts the background in for you! I'd trade my time im for that at this point!
Thanks Everyone and Thanks Nancy!

Uploading web gallery

I have created a photoshop web gallery using bridge. I see the thumbs, pages,photos.js and photos.xml file in my folder. I'm using Dreamweaver to creat my webpages. How do I get the gallery viewable or seen on my website. I'm a newbie at this. Please help. It seems so simple yet I can't figure it out.

Ah... have you asked web design questions in the Dreamweaver forum?
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/index.cfm?forumid=12
Quick instructions...
Your index.htm will be in "something like" http://www.mywebsite.com and will automatically start when someone clicks that link (if your web server uses index.htm as a default)
In your index.htm file (again, if that is what your web server uses as a "default" web page) you put a link to the main page of your gallery, such as...
http://www.mywebsite.com/photos.xml
Copy your entire gallery "structure" to the same place as index.htm
Now, when someone clicks the gallery link, photos.xml will run

Can iPhoto autosync to MobileMe web gallery or not?

I can't seem to get a straight answer to this. I'm using iLife 11. I was told to go to settings then web tab and check auto for check for newly published photos but there is no web tab in the preferences for iphoto11. If I upload an album to gallery and later on add photos to that album will those photos auto sync to my gallery or do I have to drag them into the gallery under my web albums manually?

Picasa is a fine app - not the same as iPhoto but similar. It has some extra bells and whistles nd is missing a few too. However, if you want to use Picasa you're best to forget iPhoto. Apple have created a number of ways for third party apps to access the iPhoto Library. Google's Picasa uses none of them. It hacks the library. It can lead to damage.

Add password after a web gallery is published?

I published 9 web galleries of each of my kids and their cousins with over 2000 images and it took 8+ hours for everything to upload.
After I showed my husband he really wants it password protected. I didn't think it mattered because who else would be interested in family photos...
But now I don't see a way to add a password after the fact. I don't want to have to republish everything since it took so long.
Any ideas???

It's sad we even have to think about these things but for a variety of reasons it's probably best to preserve our kids anonymity.
My partner seemed shocked when I said I was putting some family photos up on .Mac gallery until I explained you could password protect etc and that they wouldn't necessarily be available to anyone on the net.
There was an article (NY Times maybe) a few months back suggesting that many young job applicants are doing themselves no favours posting 'humorous' photos on social networking sites as many HR departments now search for prospective job applicants online to see if they've posted anything which would not be deemed respectable by the company - incredible bu true!

IPhoto crashed after uploading photos. Tried restart but crashed again. Message that library is damaged. I don't have a backup. How to restore library?

I uploaded new photos and put into albums. When I tried to open album, iPhoto shut down. Got error message and clicked on reopen. Tried again and it happened again. When I opened it again it said there was damage and offered a button to restore. I clicked it and then got this: "Your photo library is damaged or unreadable and cannot be opened. Please restore from a backup." Help, no backup. Is there any way to recover the library?

1 - you really must ahve a backup - without one it is just a matter of time until you lose all of your files including your photos - bad things happen, hopefully this is not the time but it will happen sooner or later - purchase a large hard drive (2 1/2 times the size of yoru main drive) that is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) and start runnint Time Machine so youwill have hourly backps
2 - start by rebuilding - backup your iPhoto library, depress and hold the command and options keys, launch iPhoto and rebuild yoru database
