IWeb problem... reverting to original

Hello there everyone
I hope I am posting in the right place... please redirect me if not... thank you.
I have a problem that requires someone with knowledge of the iWeb application. It's a bit lengthy to write so please bear with me and read on.
I have created a website (no.1) and published, no problem.
I have created a website (no.2) and not published, no problem.
I have created a website (no.3) and published, no problem. However, this was set up as a temporary measure. I published it prior to creating the 'real' site which I have today been working on. Rather than set up a new site for this 'real' one, I decided to simply edit the No. 3 site. I have not saved or published it yet. Since editing it, I have been asked to leave the original site as it is and so I have simply created site No.4 and have copied and pasted the edited version of No.3 to site No.4. I have not saved or published this latter site.
The problem I have met and need help with is...
I clicked on site no.3 and then went to File -> revert to saved.
It came up with a box saying 'do you want to revert to the most recently saved version of the document "Domain.sites2"? Your current changes will be lost.
Well, I was hoping it would refer to site no.3. As it doesn't, I have no idea what will happen if I click the 'Revert' option.
I want to keep the original site no.3 and the now new site no.4.
Can anyone help me sort this out please? I will be very grateful for any suggestions as i'm a bit desperate!!! (hours of work involved here gasp!)
Many thanks in advance
Merry x

You can't do what you want to do. Although the horse is out of the barn you should have duplicated site 3, renamed it site 4 and made the edits directly to site 4. The revert to saved means the domain file as it existed when you opened it (since you haven't made any saves since then).
Try the following: without saving or closing iWeb go to your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and duplicate the domain file there. That will contain sites 1-3 as they existed when you opened iWeb. Go back to iWeb and save. Now go back to the User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and double click on the Domain copy.sites2 folder. When it opens delete sites 1 and 2, leaving site 3.
Download iWebSites and merge the two domain files together. Then you can go in and delete the edited site 3 leaving site 1, site 2, the original site 3 and site 4.
If you plan on publishing multiple sites this might be of some help: I use iWebSites to manage multiple sites.. 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. Be sure to make a backup copy of your original Domain.sites files before starting the splitting process.
This lets me edit several sites and only republish the one I want.

  • Problems reverting to original RAW image (ACR 7.3)

    My understanding of using Camera RAW is that you never lose the original RAW image as shot by the camera.
    I've found out the hard way that this does not seem to be true. I opened a Panasonic RW2 file in ACR 7.3 and, among other adjustments, cropped it.
    Now even when I select Camera Raw Defaults from the flyout in ACR I cannot get back to the original uncropped image.
    Have I lost that original for good - I thought this was not supposed to happen?
    John

    In ACR simply reset the crop by choosing Clear Crop in the cropp tool dropdpwn menu...
    If you want to clear ALL settings AND crop, in Bridge you can go to Edit menu, Develop Settings and use the command Clear Settings...that's the quick and easy way of resetting an image.

    Hey 1Jerry,
    Thanks for the question. You'll want to delete and re-add your iCloud account (utilizing the new Apple ID address). When prompted, opt to keep as much information on your device as possible. The following article provides information on how to do so:
    iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
    Turn off iCloud completely
    Depending on whether you want to stop using iCloud on all or only some devices, do one or more of the following:
    On your iOS device’s Home screen, tap Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
    Thanks,

    What format is your problem clip? Are there wave forms visible in the section without sound?
    Right click on the clip in the event broswer and choose Reveal in Finder; open the clip in Quick Time to confirm that there is sound throughout at that stage of your workflow.

  • Cannot "Revert to Original" in iPhoto

    iPhoto 11 (9.2.1)
    After editing photos in Elements 4.0, I no longer can "Revert to Original" in iPhoto.  It is blanked out.  If I edit with iPhoto, there is no problem.  Elements 4.0 is listed in iPhoto preferences as the default editor.  As per a recent similar post, I created a new library by opening iPhoto while holding down the option key - no change, same problem.
    Any ideas?  Thanks.

    Digging further, checking older edited photos which used to have the ability to revert, they no longer do.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • IPhoto 7.1 has fixed the iPhoto 6 "revert to original" bug

    Over a year ago I posted on an iPhoto bug, possibly related to use of importing Libraries.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3031479 was the original thread, but it's long been archived.
    Basically, iPhoto would show the 'revert to original' command even on images that had never been modified. This had odd side-effects with some software. A contributor to one of my blogs found that "file Library6.iPhoto and concluded that the conversion of a field "idED" went wrong. I was able to repair the file using a HEX editor."
    The good news is that when I converted a test Library that had an image showing this behavior, iPhoto 7.1 converted correctly. The incorrect 'revert to original' status was gone.
    Nice to find something fixed!

    EStav:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. What's happening with the V7 vignette is that a vignette mask is created and applied to the photo. If you crop the photo the same mask is applied to the cropped area just enlarging the visible part in the vignette.
    To do what you want you now have to export the file and reimport as a new photo and crop that one. A bummer, I know. Otherwise get a 3rd party editor that you can do all of that in one step and then save.
    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), 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. 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.

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    Would you mind telling me which anti-virus package you use? It may be that it is disturbing iTunes when it tries to write out the fresh database, as it does after almost any activity with your library. I'm noticing more of this type of problem than usual and trying to see if there is any pattern. It may help to prevent a repeat of the problem if you look at the advanced options for your AV package and see if you can find a way to exclude the iTunes folder from any real-time scanning process.

  • My Edits are there, but 'Revert to Original' has gone

    Sorry, yet another iPhoto problem
    I've noticed that though all my recent iPhoto edits are still there, the 'Revert to Original' has gone, for all of them. And the sliders - which should be in their post-edit positions - are all at zero or default.
    I tested this by duplicating a recent edit, editing it dramatically (full saturation and colour temperature), came out of Edit, and went back in - no clickable Revert, and all sliders back in their default positions. I checked in the menu, and Revert to Original was greyed out.
    I then went into Edit mode and flicked back through the Library. Occasionally the Revert to Original button was clickable, but as far as I can remember, those were all edits done ages ago in a previous version of iPhoto (and maybe not all of them?).
    I thought iPhoto '11 kept track of editing adjustments, i.e. it was non-destructible editing? I appear to have a version that saves and preserves the edit(s), but overwrites the original.

    Starting over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
    1. Open the library package like this.
    https://discussions.apple.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-20276325-17180 0/open.PNG
    2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    3. Drag the subfolders of the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window a few at a time.
    https://discussions.apple.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-20276325-17180 2/iPhotolibcontents.PNG
    This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
    Note:  your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.
    Sorry, I got your email but your reply hasn't appeared in the Discussions (NOW it has! just when I post the reply..), so I've pasted it here (hope you didn't mind).
    Anyway, since then, when everything else failed, I did already have a look inside the Package, and there I saw all my Original and Modified versions, so I knew they were still there. It's just a case of why iPhoto isn't offering to Revert to them.
    Ok, I have some questions about your latest advice (which is going to be a BIG JOB!!).
    When you say Metadata, do you mean I will lose all the camera's EXIF data (that normally shows if you click Info)?
    What about Ratings? One of the big exercises I'm currently currently halfway through - 4,500 photos! - is rating them all - will I lose all the ratings?
    When you say drag Originals / Masters to the new Library, what about Modified? Remember, I can see all my edits - they are in the Library, it's just that I can't Revert to Original in many cases. If I don't drag the Modifieds over, won't I lose all my edits? (I'd rather lose the Originals!)
    When you say drag the subfolders, they are nested several deep, e.g. 2013 > 09 > 20 > 20130920-193215 > (a bunch of picture files). Do I have to recreate the directory structure, or could I just drag 2013 > 09 in one go, with everything inside it? And would I have to create 2013 folder first, then drag all of 09 into that?
    Sorry to fire so many questions at you - it's a big undertaking. (I might find in the long run, that if ever I want an Original back, I should just Open the Package and retrieve it manually, so it duplicates rather than Reverts. It's not something I do except once in a blue moon, so I might decide to live with the current situation... )
    Anyway, let me know what you think : it's either undertake this major task, or live without being able to Revert To Original from within iPhoto itself.

  • "Revert to Original" Grayed out

    I notice on all photos in my iPhoto '08 library that the "Revert to Original" item is grayed out in the menu. This appears for all photos, but I know the originals are in the system, as they can be found in Finder, in the unaltered state that I imported them. Oh, and when I do a right-click on a photo, I just now noticed "Show Original File" is grayed out.
    Could this have to do with my dragging files from the iPhoto window to my Photoshop Elements 4.0 dock icon? It seems the funny problems started when I edited a few files that way several days ago. I wonder if saving the changes I made in Photoshop Elements could have left iPhoto "confused" in some way with its complex file-management system.
    Oh, and I got the latest iLife software update.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
    If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.

    Make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and try the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot.
    Launch iPhoto and try the revert to original again.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Reverting to Original does not delete the backup copy

    Hi,
    I am new to Mac. I have late last year's Macbook Pro that came with iPhoto '09.
    When I mark certain photos to revert them to original, I am expecting that it would delete the modified copy from the Modified folder in the iPhoto library. In many cases I am seeing that it still keeps the picture in Modified folder.
    Why does it not always remove the picture from Modified folder after I have done a Revert to Original?
    Thanks

  • "Revert to Original" does not work.

    I recently upgraded from iPhoto 4 to 5 (5.0.4). While browsing, I decided to revert some edited photos (edited in iPhoto 4) back to their original state by using the "Revert to Original" menu item. I got a confirmation dialog which I clicked "OK". Nothing happened! The "Revert to Original" menu item was not grayed out after this attempt so I repeated the process no to avail. I have verified that the original/unedited file is in the "Original" folder inside the iPhoto Library folder.
    I am able to revert to the original if I edit a previously unedited photo in iPhoto 5 for the first time. The problem seems to be limited to just those photos that were originally edited in iPhoto 4 and then converted to the new iPhoto 5 library.
    Any ideas?

    Mike:
    First try manually setting the permissions on your iPhoto Library folder and contents as follows:
    Setting Permissions for iPhoto Library Folder
    1 - Select the iPhoto Library folder and type Command-I.
    2 - When the Info window comes up go to the Ownership and Permissions section and make sure You have Read & Write permission and that the Owner and Group have Read & Write also. Others - Read Only.
    3 - Then click on the "Apply to enclosed items..." button.
    If that doesn't help you can, after making a duplicate copy of your iPhoto Library folder, rebuild the library by launching iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select all of the options but the last one, orphans may bring in those non-recoverable originals as new files. You can select it or not. If you have a large library you might want to to save having to go back and redo in case the first rebuild does not work.

  • How does iPhoto handle rotating images? 'Revert to Original' Issue

    I use iPhoto for all my images, and need to get my head around how it stores images, particularly when edited. If I rotate a photo, for example from horizontal to landscape, then I think it stores the old version, and the new version. I can use the menu to 'Revert to Original' - which shows the unrotated image.
    According to iPhoto, my library size is 24.8gb.
    According to Finder, the library size is 34.2gb
    I would like to reclaim this nearly 10gb back, as if I have rotated a photo, I do not need the original version! It would also be nice to change the iPhoto behaviour, so when you rotate an image, it does not create a new file.
    I have heard of iPhoto diet, but that does not work reliably for newer versions.
    I use iPhoto 7.1.4 (the latest) and any help or advice would be appreciated.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. The best way to do what you want for future photos is to upload the photos from the camera to a folder on the desktop, rotate the file there before importing into iPhoto. There are 3rd party applications that can losslessly rotate image files. Also do not turn on the Auto-Rotate feature of your camera if it has one.
    For those that are already in the library the only way to do what you want is to replace the original file with a copy of the edited file inside the library package and then do a revert to original on that file.
    To facilitate replacing the original files with a copy of the edited (modified) files put all of the files you want to replace into one Event. That will put them all in one folder within the Originals folder and Modified folder. Then copy the contents of the Modified subfolder into the corresponding Originals subfolder.
    You run a big risk of damaging the library if an error is made during the process. It's really not recommended. In other words *proceed at your own risk and make a backup of the library before proceeding*.
    The reason the finder reports a larger library is that it is reporting the original, thumbnail and modified files as well as the database, cache and data files.
    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.

    I can't delete events recurring annually...not part of birthday calendar, these are events I've added manually.  I've tried delete key, cut event, changing to no recurrence, they just revert to original recurrence and will not be removed from my calendar.  Events that occur weekly I'm able to delete, this is only happening with events recurring annually.  Very frustrating.  Thanks for any ideas.

    If you are using a PC, log on to iCloud using Safari (rather than Explorer) to reset the photostream. Then turn iPhone/iPad photostream off and back on. I was getting the same server error as you and this advice from another blog worked for my iPhone and iPad.  But I still can't get photostream deleted from my apple tv. There does not seem to be a photostream on/off control In Apple tv 4.4 software.  I tried switching the screen saver to one of the ones that comes preloaded on the device, then back to photostream but all the old photos are still there.  If anyone can help with this, I would appreciate it.

  • After editing a photo, I sometimes get an error message that the "File is empty".  Can revert to original and start again, but file disappears after editing.

    So frustrating!  I open the photo.  Edit by cropping, adjusting color, etc.  It's perfect.  I click DONE and move on to the next.  When I come back, the first photo is gone.  I can see it in the album but cannot open it.  When I look at the file information, it shows zero KB.  If I move it to the desktop and try to open it, the error message says the file is empty.  I can revert to original and there it is.  Edit again, and again it disappears.  What am I doing wrong?  I am using iPhoto 09

    You shooting with a Nikon? We've seen a few examples of this bug with Nikons on 09 and 10.6, with no solution except to upgrade.

  • Revert to Original not working

    I am contemplating upgrading from iPhoto5 to iPhoto6, but have noticed a bug in my iPhoto5 directory that I think that I should fix before the upgrade. A number of my edited photos will not allow me to revert to original. The option is grayed out. Looking in the iPhoto directory structure, I see both the edited photo and the Original photo in the Originals directory, both where they belong.
    It seems that iPhoto has lost track of the Original. If I do more edits to the photo, a new "Original" file appears in the Originals folder with the identical name as the true original, with the exception of a "_1.jpg" extension on the file. I can now perform a "Revert to Original", but iPhoto chooses the _1 file. I can never get back to my true original. This is happening in several, but not all, of my edited files and appears to be the result of a recent crash.
    It seems to me that one option is to find all of the originals where this is happening, delete the photos from the library and then re-import them. Because of the number of the affected files, I'd like to avoid this if possible.
    Has anyone seen this behavior before? Is there an easy way to fix the file/directory structure so that I don't have to do this manually (I have a lot of photos)? Or will the upgrade from iPhoto5 to iPhoto6 fix this (which I read chages the directories from date-based to roll-based)?
    Any help is appreciated.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Did you by any chance do any renaming or moving of those file via the Finder?
    You're right in that iPhoto has lost the original link to those files. What I'd try after making a backup copy of your iPhoto Library folder is to rebuild the library and select the option to include orphaned files. This will rebuild your library and add those files that have lost their links to a new roll and album. From there you can move them to their correct roll before upgrading to V6.
    V6 does change the folder system and creates a folder of original files based on each roll in your library. These go into and "Originals" folder. Any file modified gets the modified file placed in the "Modified" folder in a sub folder with the same name as the roll. If you rename a roll from within iPhoto those folders get renamed also.
