IWeb Photo Download

From an iWeb page can you download photos onto a computer? It used to work if you right click and you could save a picture, but now the pictures are only in .gif format and they are transparent.
Are there any settings that I should choose or correct?

On your photo page there should be a download link.
On mine there is three links that were in the template (Back to Album, Slideshow and download). If you click the download link it opens the picture in a new browser window and you can right click download.
I'm not sure if all themes have these links but they should.

IWeb 08 and Photo Download Size not sticking to Original (Full Quality)

I am using iWeb 08 to post personal webpages and photo galleries but even when I select *"Original (Full Quality)"* under Photo Download Size in the inspector it slips off full size and make smaller pictures. I almost always want to offer full resolution image to my friends and family. Is there a way to make this work more reliably? Is it being fixed?

I found in this iWeb test pertained more to the image pixel dimensions than the jpg compression level of the downloadable file as you found out.
Happy New Year
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. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. 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's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

IWeb Photo Page download

Are people able to download any photos from iWeb photo pages? During the slideshow feature it says 'download', does that mean visitors to my site can download my content?

To illustrate the difference I duplicated a page that allows downloading and changed the copy to not allow downloading. You could still take a screen shot of any image on the web but the quality isn't high.
Here are the two pages:
Allows downloading:http://web.me.com/phelpssculpture/Site/proofs_available.html
Doesn't allow downloading: http://web.me.com/phelpssculpture/Site/proofsavailable2.html

IWeb Photo Sharing problems

We have a iWeb photo page where visitors were able to click on a picture and save it on their own computer with it being a normal file size. Now, it seems when you try to save a picture it is shows up as "transparent" and only allows you to choose .gif or .bmp as the file extension.
I am not sure what changed....any thoughts??!!

...same question here: some of the photos on my site (www.christelvanmeeuwen.eu - still under the old iWeb for now) are from families, and, though they've let me use them for my site, should not simply be available for download, unless with explicit permission. On the other hand, I want to make some other photos available for free download, e.g. is someone wants to use them on his site or so (the Creative Commons philosophy).
So it would be quite convenient to be able to switch the download possibility on or off.
(I know that its virtually always possible to download an image on a site, one could always use a image grabber or so - but having the download button always there of course doesn't help...)
Any hint would be helpful,
Kind regards,
Christel

IWeb Photo Sharing

Is there a way to turn off Photosharing in iWeb 8.0? That is, turn off photo Downloading. DetailView.js can be modified to accomplish this but that seems like a kluge...

Photo Download Size

All photos were brought into the web page by using the iWeb "Media" button and navigating to the iPhoto library.
Then, in iWeb, I go to *Inspector > Photos*
Under "Photo Sharing," I set the Photo Download Size to "Original (Full Quality)."
Then, I test my web page. The downloads are roughly 400K. As a sanity check, I go to iPhoto and export. As expected, the sizes are roughly 4 Meg.
What am I doing wrong? What is it that I don't understand?

Actually, the issue is even worse. As I indicated in the first post, I'm unable to allow full-sized downloads. Further, for those photo pages where I do not wish to allow any downloads at all, I'm unable to turn off the downloading capability! I discussed these issues with an Apple tech and he duplicated my results. He's now investigating to determine if there is any workaround.

Avoid photo download option

I am facing this problem:
When publishing a photo website with iWeb there seems to way to avoid the 'download' (phot) option!
What I want is to show pictures but not to offer a download. Any ideas?
Thanks
Thorge

If you're putting the photos in a Photo page or Album page layout go to the Inpsector/Photos/Photos pane and set the Photo Download Size to "None":
However, that won't stop someone from taking a screenshot of the photos. There's no way to stop that but it will only give them a small version of the photo that won't be much good for printing. If that's a concern you can add a watermark to the photos. Go to MacUpdate.com and search for "watermark" to get a list of potential application candidates.

IWeb Photo's?

Ok, so im looking at starting a Photography buisness, and have already pretty much setup my website on IWeb. I know using the "Inspector" i can go to photo's and Turn Photosharing (Small/Medium/Large/Orginal/None) to none. but does that stop people from "Right-Clicking" (Copy and Paste) My pictures?
I have all my pictures watermarked and all of them have my name save in the metadata. i just want to make sure at all possible no one can steal my pictures.
Anyone that can inlighten me on the issue. please do. i just want to be Tripple sure, no one can steal my stuff.
And i also plan to post my website using mobile me. Using IWeb 3.04 (I think) not sure what year that it is.
Thank You

If you use iWeb and create a photo page with your photos you can set the Photo Download Size to None using the Inspector/Photos/Photos pane so there will be no downloading of any files from the site.
Click to view full size
Code can be added to an HTML shippet on the page to prevent right-clicking to download the visible image. HOWEVER, there's no way to prevent someone from taking a screenshot of the image (which would be the same size as the right-click method).
Watermarking will prevent use of the photos without knowing whose photo it is. A determined person can remove the watermark with some effort. But to do that on a screenshot version of the photo would seem a lot of work for the usable size of the file that one could obtain.
Lastly, If you don't have a MMe account you won't be able to host your site there. MMe is being discontinued on June 30,2012, and new accounts are not being taken.
Features Unavailable When Publishing to a Non-Mac Server:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
◼ RSS Feed Widget
All of these feature that will be lost when MMe no longer exists can be replaced with 3rd party replacements. In addition there will be a problem with the popup slideshow for the photos page. Once the MMe servers are offline the forward, pause, play and back buttons will not display:
Click to view full size
They should look like this:
Click to view full size
However, this tutorial describes how you can modify the iWeb applicaiton so that the buttons will display correctly after the MMe servers are gone: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued
Since you site is for business you should choose a 3rd party host like HostExcellence.com, GoDaddy.com, etc. They offer unlimited storage space and bandwidth, password protection with multiple usernames and passwords of single files or folders and email addresses with aliass. Some offer a free domain name with the package.

Quality of photos downloaded from web gallery

If someone downloads a photo from my web gallery, what quality is the photo? When you share a photo through email it asks you if you want to send it "Actual Size", "Large (higher quality), Medium, etc. Also, is the quality of a photo downloaded in a web gallery the same as a photo downloaded from my iWeb website?

If you select the option to let others download photos from the web gallery they will be downloading the full sized, pixel-wise, image. However, there will have been some jpg compression on the file. iPhoto does that so as to speed up uploading time and not fill up the iDisk as fast. The amount of compression is 9 on a scale of 1 to 12 where 12 is the highest quality. This was determined by saving the same file with Photoshop to different quality levels and comparing.
I was hardpressed to see any degradation in image until I compared them side by side at about 200% magnification. Exposure histograms for each image were the same.
Do you Twango?

Iweb photo page resizes photos

It seems no matter what I do I cannot get an iweb photo page to NOT resize my photos. On a photo page I have gone to the inspector and selected none and original for the photo download size and iweb still resizes the photos when I publish to a folder. I am pulling the photos in from iphoto. In iphoto the photos are full size (3MB +). Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

ImageWell allows you to resize photos either by dimensions or by total size in kilobytes, and then you can upload them. It has a batch option too. Seems as though iPhoto should allow this but I haven't found it.

Adobe Bridge Photo Downloader Results without using Photo Downloader

I always used the Photo Downloader to download files, rename them and organize them into folders named by date.
I recently upgraded to a Network Attached Storage device that has a USB Port directly on the front of it and allows me to dump all my camera files straight onto the external hard drive. However, it does not rename them - so it uses the raw file names that the camera assigns them and doesn't organize them in any way.
This is really handy for me as I don't have to copy 16gb of photos across a wireless network when I want to clear out a memory card. However, I haven't found a way to organize the files after the fact.
Is there any way to have Adobe Bridge (or any other Mac software!) go through those files and move/rename them the same way that Photo Downloader always did directly from the camera? How?
Thanks!

If you are sure your files have the metadata, in other words you can place your memory card into a reader and the information is there,
next step, is a total Bridge Preferences reset
Start Adobe Bridge and immediately press Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS) until the Reset Settings dialog box appears. Select all three options--Reset Preferences, Reset Standard Workspaces, and Purge Entire Thumbnail Cache--and then click OK.

Adobe Photo Downloader has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Error Code: c0000005
Address: 75e32f71
I clicked on the OK button and the downloader closed.
I did a search on this error code (c0000005) and there seems to be a workaround but no solutions, why is this? I ask that because this problem seems to be years and years old, going back to at least 2005 (do the math that is 10 years).
I don't even have the Camera hooked up and I get this error on download. I redownloaded everything and reinstalled. I allso saw the AVI issues reported with this proble so i updated Quicktime though without the camera being hooked up when I get this error I didn't expect that to work. I tried support and they wouldn't help because I bought it in March this year. Pretty frustrating as I have re-purchased Elements about every 2 years. I think I might need a new CODEC? I had this problem on an Earlier version And I seem to remember that being the Fix but this may be something completely different

I finally found that it was missing a picture so the Catalog was "corrupted". I just deleted the picture and it started working.
I hate Adobe and their total lack of support - thanks for nothing Adobe . Also get this - they offered me to upgrade to 13.0 ( My 12.0 is only 6 months old but they still don't support it on errors. Only install errors!
I have upgrade and repurchase this product 4 times now. I will find something else next time!

Adobe Bridge CS3 photo downloader won't auto-open.

Hi,
This is my mystery:
I can open Bridge/File/Get Photos From Camera/, and select my cf card drive. But the Photo Downloader box USED to pop up when I first put my card in the reader. This does not happen any more - and I can't figure out why, or how to reset it.
Any ideas?
Bridge 2.1.1.9
Windows XP Pro 64-bit
Thanks,
Karl G

This may add Bridge to your list of "Open XXX with" programs.
1) Using Windows Explorer, browse to any of the photographs on your system - not necessarily on your camera card. It's helpful if all of your photographs are JPGs or TIFs, but not necessary.
2) Right-click one of the photo files and select "Properties".
3) Near the top of that dialog is "Open with <program name>", and there should be a "Change..." button to the right of that. Click the Change button.
4) On the "Open With" dialog, click the "Browse..." button and browse to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Bridge CS3\Bridge.exe and click OK.
5) Now, still on the "Open With" dialog, make sure the "Always use the selected program..." check-box is turned OFF. (If you can't turn it off, that shouldn't be a problem.
6) Click OK and then close your Windows Explorer.
At this point, you should be able to complete step 6) from my previous post. (Of course you'll have to follow all of those steps from my previous post.)

Photo Downloader doesn't retain previous settings (again)

Please see previous post because this issue involves Photo Downloader and ACR.
I'm using 10.6.8, CS5.1 and Bridge 4.1.0.54
I have just reloaded Camera Raw 6.4.1 due to the bug in ACR 6.5 that prevents selecting a destination folder in Photo Downloader and causing Bridge to freeze.
6.4.1 solves the freeze problem, but now it's back to the problem that none of the settings in Advanced Dialog are retained, nor does Photo Downloader default to Advanced Dialog anymore. I've added the CS5 folder as before (User/Library/Application Support/Adobe) alongside the existing CS5.1 folder, but it hasn't solved the problem. Is there a new solution to this yet?
6.4.1 works fine on my MBP using the above workaround (CS5 folder added). Because I now have a dozen new student iMacs to set up, my three-part second question is: has ACR 6.6 been tested for these two bugs; should I wait before setting up the iMacs; how long before ACR 6.6 is officially released?

Thanks Omke. I¹ll try that next time I¹m in the lab. However, on my
MacBook Pro I checked the CS5.1 folder, and there is no ³APDPreferences.xml²
in that location (it is there in CS5 folder but I couldn¹t open it). On the
iMacs, I¹m only running CS5.1. Is there a different location for it in
CS5.1?
I¹m wondering if I¹m the only one running Mac OS 10.6.8, Bridge 4.1.0.54 and
ACR 6.5 who¹s having this problem?

It¹s baffling,
That is to put it mildly you mean, can't imagine that is the only word that
came to your mind... Have you tried to repair permissions for OSX
again? I don't have the 5.5 installed so can't compare but if one system
does work, another not and you have compared both files and folders
existence in the two systems it does seem to be OS related to me? There is
also a file called "APDPreferences.xml" (user/library/Application Support/
Adobe/Bridge CS5) Can you open the files on both systems and compare the
content, it contains the settings made in advanced dialog.

CS4 Photo Downloader imports photos in wrong order

I decided to give Photo Downloader a whirl with a batch of photos I took this weekend. I had about 400 photos spread over three cards, so I had them renamed with the date and a counter. I was using the high-speed drive mode on my camera (5Dmk2) and I noticed in one spot where I blew off a run of photos, Bridge imported them in some order other than the filename counter in the camera.
I was looking at about a half-dozen shots of someone shooting a basketball and noticed that it looked like the ball came out and then was shot again, something that didn't happen in the game. Fortunately, I had Bridge embed the original filename from the camera into the XMP data and sure enough, Photo Downloader screwed up the order of the photos.
How does Photo Downloader determine the proper order to download photos? There are no options to change the import order and the software clearly doesn't just read the filenames to get it sorted out.
Any ideas? Or just stop using Photo Downloader? Or do I have to download the files, then rename then in filename order in Bridge?

It is a known issue that Photodownloader can't get this sort order right every time, the higher frequency of motordrive used the more it will screw up.
However when you don't use the rename function in downloader it will be more accurate. Feel also free to file a bug report about this using the contact button top right of this page, the more complaints the faster it will be repaired you would hope...).
I rarely have sessions with that high speed but it occurred to me also and using no rename did suit me :-)
You can then easily rename them in Bridge (also with more options) but it would be preferable that it worked right in downloader!
The ups for using downloader are still great, without this rename setting for speedy jobs you are still left with the possibility to keep the original filename (and disable that in the Bridge batch renaming option), convert to DNG, make a back up copy and add a metadata template in one go :-)
