Is it possible to incorporate old photo albums into a Web Gallery?

I created 9 photo albums with the first iteration of iWeb. Now I'm using iWeb '08 and have been consistently adding new photos to an existing Web Gallery via iPhoto. But I'd like to import or add those older albums into the Web Gallery.
Looking for answers...

Perhaps it would be better to just direct you to what I'm talking about.
Here is a URL to the site I maintain for our family photos and movies:
http://www.Derners.ws
Along the top you will see navigation links to Web Galleries, Photo Albums and Movies. The Web Galleries were created as a result of iWeb 2.0 and the overall inclusion of the Web Gallery feature with iLife '08.
The Photo Albums and Movies however, were created back in iWeb 1. These are still online as standalone pages. What my original question alludes to are these Photo Albums. I want to pull the content of the Photo Albums and incorporate it into my Web Galleries, thereby having all of it in one place. So when I complete this process a visitor who browses Derners.ws will go directly to the Web Galleries. No more "Photo Albums", no more "Movies". Just one stop for viewing everything.
Does that make sense?

Where are the photos I uploaded through web gallery?

G'day people
People have uploaded photos to my web galleries but they never appear in iPhoto and never make it into the web gallery either.
I just tried to upload a photo into an event on the web gallery. Everything looked fine and it appeared to accept the upload. However, the photo is not appearing in the event on the web gallery let alone iPhoto itself.
Any ideas?
Al

I had someone upload photos to my web gallery and they would show up when I used Safari to look at the gallery page. When looking at the gallery page in iPhoto only the original photos appeared and didn't include the ones my friend uploaded. The problem was finding out how to get them into iPhoto's library.
I found, somewhere in the "help", a statement that you had to start iPhoto, then highlight the web gallery album, then click on the publish/sync icon (just to the right of the gallery album). This synced
my source gallery page to the published page.
However, I did have a problem arise. My friend uploaded a couple of duplicates. I was able to delete one of the duped shots but cannot get rid of the other one. No matter what I do, each time I click on the "publish icon" the dup shot comes back!
One last thing, to get the new uploaded photos into iPhoto, you have to select them and add them to the appropriate Event, otherwise they exist only on the web gallery and do not reside permanently in iPhoto. At least I think this is how it is working!!!!

Need help editing scanned images of old photo album pages PSE 9

Before I begin this project, I thought I'd get some advice from someone who has undertaken a similar project. I have three photo albums from the 50's and 60's. The albums were made by my mother who mounted the photos (mostly black and white but some color photos) on construction paper (of various colors) using the corner holders or glue. She hand cut the construction paper so each page is not a perfect rectangle ( about 11" tall, 8.5" wide). The pages were punched and put into a three-ring binder.
She added text to the edge of the photo and/or to the construction paper. Each page contains one to 6 photos and text. Each album has about 120 pages. I want to keep the notes on the construction paper so I scanned each page into a TIF files, 400 dpi and stored the images in a separate folder for each volume.
I use (poorly) PSE 9. I see it has a auto straighten/crop feature that can be used one photo at a time. I tried the divide scanned images function and that did not fully separate all images on the page and also created an image for stray objects on the page such as an unused corner holder. (I know those things have a better name but it escapes me now.)
I plan to create photo books for my siblings. I am now thinking of cropping the image of each page (rather than each photo on the page) into a uniform size, adjusting levels, contrast and sharpness, saving this image to a JPEG file, and using these edited JPEG images to create the photo book. Since each page was hand-cut, there will areas of white where one page was torn or cut smaller than another page. Some pages will have blanks where old photos have been lost leaving behind only the corner things. It won't be perfect but it will be an image of the album as it exists today.
My questions are:
The pages are about 11 by 8.5. Does anyone know a photo service that prints photo albums in a portrait layout in this size? I have been unable to find one; it looks like most online photo books are wider rather than taller.
Let's assume I use a company such as Shutterfly that offers a 12x12 format. I assume it would be better to edit the images in PSE9 rather than any online software. What should I do to keep the proportions in the current images true but make the image fit a 12x12 page, for example?
IS there any other editing software anyone can recommend that will speed this up, hopefully a software that would take multiple photos at one time, auto-straighten and auto crop to a set size? And also auto contrast/level/sharp. If I could use such auto features on these images and then go back and adjust the photos that did not play well with the auto features, that would save me time.
I appreciate anyone's input. I dread doing this but we have one set of photos and 5 siblings so it has to be done. Thanks!

Hi,
Mentioning your issues one by one:
1) PSE does not have any portrait Photobook available, so your thought was the best way to get the work done is by choosing the 12x12 - shutterfly one.
2) PSe does a good job of editing the images. You can set your images of approx. 11x8 size to fit to the 12x12 page. Just choose a one photo page Layout for the page and then right click on the image to " Fit photo in the frame".
3) If more edits are required for the image, you can easily go to Advanced mode and edit your photos, layouts, move the frames, images or add effects to the images.
4) Photo book creation sure takes time. because, you want it to be the best. I am sure PSE would help you best here.
Go ahead and create you photobook. Inc ase you get stuck somewhere, you can always post here to get help!
Cheers,
Swarnima

HT1688 need help, i backed up my iphone 5 to my pc and for some reason, some of my old photo albums sync back into my iphone, these are photos that i do not wish to have on my phone, i think i need someone to help me reset my itunes settings,

Hi as I have listed above, I backed up my iphone5 to my pc and for some reason, some of my very old photos from my itunes account sync to my iphone, theres no way for me to delete them i've already try. These are photos that i do not wish to have in my phone, pleas if someone can contact me and help walk me thur this mess i really appreciate it, thank you.

you can change the sync settings in itunes. plug your phone into the computer, select the device in the side bar (it should have an iphone icon next to it), then select the tab for photos to modify the settings for what will and will not be synced.

Placing Web Photo Album into Dreamweaver Template?

I have a templated through the Dreamweaver program that I am
using to create a site. The first page is great. I saved the index
page as a newly named page to copy it to make my next page. I then
want to replace a section of that page with a web photo album
created in Dreamweaver/Fireworks. How do I embed that file into my
2nd template page. It says to copy html into the page (did that)
and the photos and files are not refreshing on the server to show
them and the template codes properly as they are on my index page).
any help please would be great.

Do you have a URL to look at?

Dragging photo albums into iWeb

Hi. I'm trying to drag an iPhoto album into a albums page on iWeb but its not working. I've done this in the past and its worked fine so i know what to do, but it's just not working!
Please help.

What system are you running and what version of iWeb and iPhoto?
Try this basic troubleshooting fix:
delete the iWeb preference files, com.apple.iWeb.plist and com.apple.iWeb.plist.lockfile, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
Click to view full size
launch iWeb and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder. Once the library folder is visible you'll be able to find the two files mentioned above and delete them.

How to delete an Album in .Mac web gallery?

I sent a couple of albums to my .mac web gallery using iPhoto for organization.
A couple of months later I eliminated that particular iPhoto library all together when I re did my photo organization.
I've since re-done the photo organization and made up a new iPhoto for just the web gallery photos (having them a smaller size)
I published the new photos from the new iPhoto library to my .mac site but noticed there are 2 albums still there from the old iPhoto.
Since the old iPhoto has been eliminated, how do I eliminate the old albums on the iWeb site?
I looked and tried to find them in the hard drive library, apps support but don't see anything that says iPhoto or iWeb support.
How do you eliminate an album on the .mac site if the original photos are not on iPhoto? I assume there should be a place on the hard drive, but where do I look?

Go to iDisk>Web>Sites>_gallery and delete the folder.
Perhaps it's wise to check the content of the folders if you have more than one.

Better to post photos and video to web gallery than to add to the page?

Hi there
Is it better to post video and photos to web gallery than it is to put directly on the web page? If so, how do you make the link on the web to the gallery?
Thanks
Carl

If you publish your web gallery from iPhoto and link it to your site you have a number of options.
Select your album and from the Share drop down menu select "Web Gallery".
A popup gives you the following options:
Allow:
Album viewable by everyone.
Allow Downloading of photos or entire album.
Adding of photos by email.
Show:
Photo titles.
Email address for uploading.

Is it possible to password protect Movies in the new Web Gallery?

I have loaded several iPhoto albums onto my new Web Gallery - and I can password protect each using a different name and password for various friends and family. This is great as they each then have their own privacy. Some I have left open to view by everyone. BUT, I would like to password protect some movies from iMOvie '08. Can this be done for the movies as per the photo albums - and how? If yes - can it also be done for movies already published or will they have to be re-published?
thanks
Alan

The best I can figure out is that if you post your movie, but do not select the option to "Show project on Web Gallery home page," the video will not show on your home page for random visitors, but you can send the direct link to your video to whomever you want by copying it from the confirmation page after the video uploads. Not perfect, but the only option I see right now.

Can you change the album order in Web Gallery?

I can't seem to change the order of albums i publish to the web gallery. The gallery presents the albums in the order you upload it.
Any suggestions besides uploading my oldest albums first?

Just found the answer to this here. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306164 Apparently the order is not (at this time) flexible once the albums are uploaded. And what's more, the predetermined order is not exactly intuitive. Shouldn't the most recently uploaded album go at the end of the list so things are more chronological? Maybe this will get a fix in a maintenance update.

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.

Is it possible to delete entire photo albums in iOS

iphone 5s / iOS8.1 - iMac / Yosemite
When i transfer important pictures from iPhone to Aperture I like to keep them on my phone until I know my Mac is backed up. Once backed up I want them off my phone. However, as far as I can see, photos in iOS camera roll can only be deleted individually and right now I have about 6 albums with 800 pictures.. I don't want to delete them individually I want to delete the whole lot - am I missing something? Surely there should be a simple way to select and delete an album?
By the way, i am not talking about sync'd pictures here so it's not a case of deselecting sync'd albums in iTunes.
any ideas?

I haven't done it in a while but you may want to connect the phone to your Mac and open Image Capture on the Mac. I don't remember that it allows deleting by folder but if not it still would be faster than doing it one by one on the phone. The delete icon is at the lower left (red circle with line through it).

Got A new hard drive - will my old photo albums stay on facebook?

Hey everyone,
My harddrive crashed last week and was replaced by with a new hard drive by apple support. I wanted to know that when I try to use iphoto for the first time and upload more pictures to facebook, will the albums previously uploaded to FB with iphoto on my old hardrive be deleted? Because I lost all my albums on my harddrive when it crashed, i'm worried I'll lose the albums that are on fb if I try to sync. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

No - i didn't - but my albums are still on fb. I'm wondering if i reconnect to fb with a empty iphoto if it will delete the pics already on fb.
Any help would be appreciated.

Is it possible to transfer old photos on my camera roll to iCloud, and if so, how?

I'm all set up with icloud and photo stream, but I can't figure out how to get all the photos in my camera roll
onto photo stream. Any takers????

Hi Gareth,
For the license issue, we also recommend you to connect the Microsoft License Support, however, I found this article may be helpful for you to tranfer the OLP from one company to another:
How to transfer ownership of an Open License Agreement - Microsoft Open License Basics
I hope this helps.

How to export iPad photo album into iPhoto.

I had my Windows laptop and iPad 2 stolen in a house break-in . The laptop had my iTunes library and photos. I have an 1st gen iPad with several albums on it that are not part of the camera roll or photo stream. I want to export these to my beautiful new MacBook Air but when I connect the iPad to the Macbook it doesn't appear anywhere even in iPhoto or remote devices.
Any help and advice would be very much appreciated.
TIA
Jo

Hi Tom,
thanks for the tip - i did as you suggested and yes my old ipad showed up but only the pics that were taken on the ipad it self showed up for import.
The albums I am trying to retrive were put from my old laptop onto my ipads through iTunes. As my library was on the laptop that was stolen I suspect that this is the root of the problem.
