Is there a way to adjust the length of time images appear in the slideshow?

Iweb 08 and SlideShow Pro 1.0.3 plugin for Lightroom 1.3.1

I have an iweb site I did last year using iweb 06 and slide show pro with the iphoto plugin and then used the slide show pro in Flash. www.mattmosher.com
That worked great just paste the html code into the exported iweb site and put the slide show folder and swf file in the folder and it worked great.
NOW
iweb 08 and slide show pro for lightroom gives you a realtime visuals of your slide show. Awesome plugin.
However when I paste the code into my html document the slide show does not show up. It also generates 2 swf files named loader and slideshow pro. Along with 2 xml files named param.xml, images.xml along with a js file swfobject.js
I really do not know how to fix the problem.
Does anyone have any knowledge on this topic???

I don't want to sound mean, but you should'nt have got any firmware updates from any other site other than Apple's or through iTunes, I'm afraid. I think that's where the problem has come from.

How to publish a photo book and slideshow in iWeb

Is it possible to (or how do you) publish a photo book and slideshow in iWeb created either in Aperture or iPhoto?

Here's an example of E Books. They're created in iWork and loaded into iWeb as a compressed PDF for download. The photo of the front cover is used for the link.

For a larger file, you can upload it to a folder on your server and create a link to it from your website.

IWeb and Web Gallery

what is the difference between iWeb and WebGallery in iphoto. I am getting ready to revamp my old mac website and don't want to mess it all up.
Can I use them both together???

iWeb is an application for building websites.
A web gallery published from iPhoto is purely for publishing photos.
You can link to a web gallery from your iWeb built website or use the web gallery widget in iWeb to do this.

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.

IWeb and SEO Tool - best practice?

I have made an iweb website (published to a MobileMe account) and have downloaded iWeb SEO Tool.
I have understood that there is one certain procedure in doing SEO that's a lot better than the other.
What I usually do after making changes in iWeb is choose publish to MobileMe. But after following the instruction video from iWeb SEO Tool they say one should choose publish to folder and then open the iWeb SEO tool and the local folder and after that make tags and publish to mobile me.
I have noticed that my counter sometimes disappears when I have published (and have from other topics understood that this can happen if you do the procedure with SEO-ing the wrong way). I would just like to set a SEO-routine that I always follow after making changes in my site. Pleeeeeease can someone follow me through easy step by steps from saving changes in iWeb and to publication.
Many many thanks in advance!

If you publish to a folder and then upload the files it's the same as publishing to a non-Mac server with these restrictions:
Features Unavailable When Publishing to a Non-Mac Server:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Blog RSS Subscription
◼ Hit counter
◼ Enhanced slideshows
So if you use any of these features you will have to published directly to MobileMe to keep them.
However, if the hit counter is your only loss you can add a much more informative 3rd party counter, like that from StatCounter, which would not be affected by the publishing to a folder. StatCounter also gives you much more information about your visitors other than just number. Old Toad's Tutorial #13 - Adding a StatCounter as an HTML Snippet has more information on that.
If you decide to go the 3rd party counter method you can publish to a folder on the desktop, process with SEO Tool and then use the free Cyberduck ftp client to upload the files to your MobileMe account. Cyberduck has the capability of uploading only the new or changed/editied files saving considerable uploading time.

Disabled iWeb photo slideshows

I have created some photo collection websites with iWeb and they run fine as "slideshows" on my computer. However, the same slideshows won't work on my iPad. Does this have something to do with the incompatibilty of Flash on Apple mobile devices?? See what I mean at:
http://www.jimznet.com/PHOTOS/menu.html
Thanks,

Past experience has taught me not to rely on media player assets on third party servers. Yahoo pulling the plug on the EasyListener player is a case in point.
As OT has pointed out, the slideshow works on other servers but, according to Cyclosaurus, some necessary assets are on the Apple server.
Wouldn't it be reasonable to expect that Apple will make these assets available after the demise of MobileMe if enough people requested this?
The iWeb method of getting media onto websites leaves a lot to be desired and there are a lot of other ways to display music, movies and photos. The photo page is one of iWebs few triumphs but there are many alternative slideshows and banners.
Most of these methods require that assets are uploaded to, ideally, your own server but its not so difficult once you grasp the concept and the basics of FTP.
iWeb does provide two other methods of publishing apart from MobileMe. The built in FTP is just as quick, easy and convenient as publishing to MobileMe once you set it up.
Publishing to a local folder and uploading via an FTP app. allows you to add SEO tags and optimize the files for faster download.
A good FTP application makes the task of uploading media player assets very easy - drag and drop.

Create and manage multiple web sites using iWeb and GoDaddy

Now that Mobile Me is going away and the other comments in this discussion relate to iwebsites were written several years ago, I am looking for new and up-to-date information.
I have been building and maintaining a website using my MobileMe account and porting it over to GoDaddy.
I need to re-write the site if for no other reason than it is getting cluttered and needs freshining.
I would also like to create some other seperate web sites with their own URL
1) Is iWeb capable of doing this?
2) All the information I have found on iWebsites is at least 3 years old and there does not seem to be updates to that software.
3) Are there other tools that will allow me to do this?
And finally, does the group have any words of wisdom for me.
Thanks Dunc

It is now generally acknowledged that iWeb, and iDVD, has been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
However, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
◼ MobileMe Gallery
All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken. If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows. Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.

However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone. How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
It now appears that the iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on. However, the iLife 11 boxed version that is still available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD. Those two apps were listed in small, gray text on the iLife 11 box that I bought.
Personally, if I didn't already have a copy I would purchase one to have it for reinstallation purposes if ever needed.
This might be of some interest to you at this time: Life After MobileMe.
If you're running or planning on running Lion the following will be of some interest to you:
In 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.
For opening your domain file in Lion for the first time or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
Just launch the applicaiton, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain. This applicaiton can be use with earlier versions of the OS to select and open multiple domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

Why did Steve decide to eliminate superior products like MobileMe and iWeb and not just raise the price?

I've been looking into moving 3 web sites that I easily created using iWeb and Mobile me and it is unbarably difficult to use what non Apple users have to put up with. I was so happy that I could throw a site together for someone and it would just work. Now I'm looking at 5 times the cost and 1/5th the quality. Why didn't Apple just raise the price if it was unprofitable? MobileMe and iWeb are a GREAT service to Apple customers. I feel this discontinuation is very unfortunate for many.

Actually, the discontinuation of MobileMe is an opportunity to move on to more professional website hosting and management. MMe is just too social networking oriented and lacking in serious webstite hosting capability.
Now I'm looking at 5 times the cost and 1/5th the quality
You've got to be kidding! Web hosting that has more hosting features that MMe had is readily available for as little as $3.95/mo. That's only $48/year - aboiut 1/2 of what MMe costs. Included are a domain name, unlimited storage and transfer, subdomains, multiple email addresses, advanced security features and, something MobileMe never had, 24/7 actual ear-to-ear customer support! What a novel idea. Actually quickly contacting and talking to a real person to get help on a problem.
I moved about 30 websites from MMe to my new host in about an hour once the new server was setup. This describes how I did it: iW13 - Easily Transfer Website Folders From MobileMe to a 3rd Party Server.
This tutorial explains how I host multiple sites with just one domain name: iW16 - Using HostExcellence.com with iWeb. The same can be done with subdomains but the folder method I used was easer in my opinion.
Depending on your website's design and intented use iWeb an still be a viable web builder. However, for more complex websites and connecting with mobile users one will have to begin using other applications. Read the following:
On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. HOWEVER, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
◼ MobileMe Gallery
All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.

IWeb and Quicktime

i made a slideshow of Photobooth pics with iPhoto, comrpressed it with iMovie, saved it for iWeb, and tried to publish it with my .mac account. the quicktime play buttons works in iWeb but is nowhere to be found when i view it with Safari.
any suggestions?

Your file is 141MB's.
Even on a very fast connection it will take a long time to download and play.
Export it using smaller dimensions a lower frame rate and a 8 time lower data rate.
It should be under 20MB's.

How do I access iWeb and iDVD on my new Macbook Air?

I just bought a new MacBook Air and read that I can load iPhoto 11, iMovie 11, and GarageBand from the app store, which I did. I don't see iWeb or iDVD anywhere, on the MacBook or in the app store.
I guess iWeb and iDVD are part of the iLife 11 package, which does not come with the MacBook Air (thought it did), but I wanted to check in case I am overlooking something.

If you have another Mac that you can connect to your Air with a local area network or int the Target Disk Mode, Transferring files between two computers using FireWire, you would be able to run the iLife 11 installer disk on the other Mac and select the Air as the location for the installation.

I am using a new imac with osx lion 10.7.5 and have bought a copy of Apple iLife 11 on dvd a so that I can install iWeb and idvd, when I click on install iLife I get a message saying "iLife.kpg was signed with an invalid certificate

I am using a new imac with osx lion 10.7.5 and have just bought Apple iLife 11 on dvd so that I can install iWeb and iDVD, as macs no longer ship with these apps. When I click on install iLife I get a message saying "iLife.kpg was signed with an invalid certificate.
Next problem is that when moving through the installer and get to custom install, as I only want to install iDVD and iWeb, I am presented with the option to install iDVD, Sounds & Jingles and iWeb, but not sure what is going on with the other 3 options iLife Support etc, they seem to be greyed out but still look like they may install over the top of the newer versions already on my imac. Is it ok for me to just go ahead and hit install? Or do I have a problem?

Yep, just install iDVD (plus sounds and jingles) and iWeb if you want it (but note that iWeb apparently won't work if you upgrade to Mountain Lion).
Then use Software Update to get any late iDVD updates.

IWeb and multiple users

So i'm trying to see how i can set up a website in iweb and edit that website from multiple computers and it stay up-to-date. is there a way to do this?

thanks, that does help a bit, i think i can figure that out. my next question is what happens to my existing iweb sites if i try to open a different DOMAIN file from a different source?
ie: i have like over 20 iWeb sites in my iWeb 2.0 that are in a DOMAIN file stored in the default location. if i go to open (by double clicking) a DOMAIN file from an iDisk for instance to edit it and it opens iWeb, what will happen with my other sites? and will this set that iDisk DOMAIN file location as my default?
