Iweb photo pages are totally wacked (plus the program destroyed my sites!)

I am having the same problems that everyone else seems to -- missing images, crashing issues, working very slowly, etc. I'm rebuilding ALL of my pages -- I use these sites for work! What's most disturbing is that the photo pages don't work at all for me -- I can build them, but once I close iweb or it crashes, they come back up nearly blank, no images, and the navigation is really weird and different and won't change, and the space to add photos looks really big and weird. What the heck is going on? Please, I need help!!!! I have to update my sites for business.

I had a problem with photos missing from Photo pages. I just talked to Apple support and we were able to fix the problem for my domain!
The Apple support person said that some domain files are not being properly updated to 2.0. In those cases, peoples are experiencing missing pictures and text as navigation on photo pages.
One indicator if your domain was properly updated to 2.0 is to look at the filename in User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/. In my case the file was Domain.sites and not Domain.sites2 so the initial conversion did not complete properly.
The solution was to replace incorrectly updated Domain.sites file above with the original backup that I made before installing iWeb 2.0. (NOTE - The readme clearly states to backup this file before installing and luckily I did.)
After copying the file to User/Library/Application Support/iWeb, make sure that iWeb is closed (not running). I then double clicked the Domain.sites folder and patiently wait for the Progress bar to complete. (Thank you to another poster on another thread for this suggestion.) You will not receive any success message other than the file will be renamed Domain.Sites2.
After multiple saves and publishes, it appears that everyone now works correctly. The Apple support person was very interested in user feedback and wants more people to report issues via phone. He took my original domain file (via his iDisc account) so he could submit it to engineering for them to study. It sounds like they could still use a few more examples of Domains that fail the initial upgrade to 2.0.
Hope this helps.

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.

Some Photo Pages not showing no matter the browser

I'm using iWeb '08 and have 2 separate sites. I noticed last night that, only on one of the sites, the photo pages are not showing the photos. Yet, on the other site, the photo pages are fine. It's really weird.
Anybody have any thoughts?
BTW, I tried to view them in both Safari and FF.
Thanks!

Are those 3 pages constructed like the other with photos placed on the page rather than a photos page with a slideshow? Those three pages don't show the photos being uploaded. They are not listed as missing, just not included on the page (go to Window->Activity menu option). In the sites that do display correctly the photos are listed as shapeimage_3.png or something like that.
You might try republishing the entire site to see if that will jump start those three pages.

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 photos page missing

iweb 2 keeps deleting the contents of my photo pages. All the other pages stay the same, but when I save and quit the program and re-open it, the entire contents of the photos pages are missing.
Does any one know how to retrieve them, or make it not happen again?
Thanks!

Web gallery use vs iWeb photo page

I really like the quick layout of the gallery. Would I be saving more iDisk space by using the Aperture Web gallery vs iWeb photo pages?? My guess is yes because I can control the size in page/detail and more when I save to my .mac. The only feature I would lose is the flow of navigation with the other iWeb pages.
My thought was to create a main photo page with iWeb and have a small snapshot to hyperlink to the homepage.mac gallery created with Aperture. This allows flexibility in adding/removing the galleries if space becomes an issue. I dont have much in iWeb so far and it takes a really long time to load as it is. I'd hate to bog down more with photo galleries.

hello, me100finn

You can always manually make a link to the other web pages which is what I do.
Just a few more added features to Aperture Web Gallery and Web Journal like an advance option feature to view & change the CSS or source code (without going to GoLive or Dreamweaver) or something along the lines of "would you like to add a link to another url?" would be tasty.

Yup, my thoughts too. Maybe version 2 (i hope). I'm making the site first in Aperture (the heavy lifting) and then making minor additions and tweaks in GoLive.
To do this add the image, select it after the export in a wysiwyg html editor and point it to the proper linked url.

I just upgraded my old versionj 3 of photoshop elements to v13 when I import photos they are not imported in the same order they are mixeds up

hi can I have a reply to above question: I just upgraded my old versionj 3 of photoshop elements to v13 when I import photos they are not imported in the same order they are mixeds up

In the documents screen - sorry, new to this so not sure if that's the right terminology... Basically the screen showing all documents, if you drag down, there should be two options at the of of the page: Date and Name. Select Name and your list should now be in alphabetic order.
Hope that helps.

Thanks , wish I was smarter. Tom

Hi!
I had this issue about a month ago, so scheduled an Apple One-to-One session, which easily solved the problem. You cannot use the iWeb "Photo" page template if you want to add a Paypal button. As much a pain as it is, you must use the iWeb "Blank" page template.

Each time I create a new album in IPhoto, photos from another album or from photo stream are automatically dumped into the new album.. how do I create a blank album and then import photos from a flash drive into the new album?

Surely you meant "just import the photo"? The Spell checker is dangerously creative !

How to print page no/total pges in report programing?

how to print page no/total pges in report programing?

Hi
This is an example:
In TOP-OF-PAGE you can write:
WRITE: SY-PAGNO, '/', '-----'.
When the program has finished to print all data, run a routine like this:
Declare a variable
DATA: L_PAGE_COUNT(5) TYPE C,
      V_LINE TYPE I. "The line where page number is written
* In my example I suppose the page number is always
* written in the first row of the page.
V_LINE = 1.
* Copy this code to the end of program
* Page count will be printed on each page here
WRITE sy-pagno TO l_page_count LEFT-JUSTIFIED.
DO sy-pagno TIMES.
    READ LINE V_LINE OF PAGE sy-index.
    REPLACE '-----' WITH l_page_count INTO sy-lisel.
    MODIFY CURRENT LINE.
    ADD 1 TO sy-index.
ENDDO.

The computer I use at work is a PC. I know you are allowed to install the programs on two computers, one work computer and one laptop. My laptop is a Mac. Is it possible to install the second copy on a Mac?

I'm not sure if I'm in the right forum for this question, but I don't know where else to ask about installing on cross platforms. So, the computer I use at work is a PC. I know you are allowed to install the programs on two computers, one work computer and one laptop. My laptop is a Mac. Is it possible to install the second copy on a Mac?

Which Adobe product exactly?
Cloud: yes.
Creative Suite: no.

Well, you downloaded a bootleg copy of iOS 7 beta and have installed it on your phone without being a developer. It has bricked your phone and you cannot get help here because doing what you did has voided your warranty. Have a nice day.

Can visitors download full-sized photos without using the iWeb photo page?

Neither the photo page nor album page suits the needs of my site, so here's what I would like to do:
Import my pictures into a blank page. Instruct visitors to right click to save.
Will they be saving a full-size version of the photo? Or will it save a thumbnail?
An alternative is to make the thumbnail itself a link to a page with a larger version of the same photo.
By not using a pre-formatted photo or album page, I do not have access to the iWeb download photo quality selector (it's grayed out in the menu).
Thanks for your help.
Greg

The quality that you upload will be the quality that viewers can download.
Here's a way to do it without using a Photo template......

Buttons in my photo page are showing up as "blue question marks?

When I updated my website last night, the arrow buttons in my photo pages show up as blue boxes with question marks in them. This has never happen before. All of the images are fine, text is fine, even the numbers for the various pages of the photo album, just the "arrows" have the little "?" symbol. I have restarted the computer, refreshed, reset Safari, emptied the cache and nothing seems to work. I had a second party look on their Mac if it was the same on theirs and it is too.
I am posting to a server (not using mobile me). Any suggestions???

Publish to a local folder and launch this version in the browser by double clicking the index.html file.
If this is OK it means that you haven't uploaded all the files to the server.
If its not OK, try deleting the iWeb preference file before the restart. See "Fix iWeb" here....
