.mac web gallery images from iPhoto

Is any one having this problem? When you create a web gallery from an Event in iPhoto and you go to the My Gallery section each gallery of photos does not have an image, it is just gray with a gray image. It is suppose to have an image from the gallery and when you scroll over it you see all the images. It is not working for me?
Any ideas?

When you move the cursor over the gallery it should show the various files located insdie, i.e. skimming. What happens when you click on one of the galleries? Does it open and display properly? Do you only have one gallery? Try creating a second test gallery of a couple of photos and try again.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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 written 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 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Rebuild/Redownload Web Gallery Images into iPhoto?

    I have a web gallery that has 312 pictures, but I maybe only see about 50 of them within iPhoto. Is there a way I can get iPhoto to download those pictures again from the iDisk gallery? They show up in iDisk as well. I just don't want to have to delete the gallery and then have the people who contributed to it to have to re-upload the pictures.
    Suggestions?

    I figured out what it was... 4 images were uploaded to the web gallery with a semicolon (;) in the name. After removing those 4 images, I was finally able to retrieve all the rest of the images from the web gallery into iPhoto without issue. I then renamed the images and re-added them back to the web gallery.

  • Web Gallery gone from iPhoto

    Someone uploaded some pics to my web gallery, which is current online, and now that web gallery is no longer present in my iPhoto. If I go in to Preferences, Web Gallery - it's still listed there. But it's not under WEB GALLERY on the left side of library.
    All upgrades have been done.

    in the preferences what are the Sync settings? Try clicking sync now.
    if that does not work then try going to your gallery on your iDisk (finder ==> iDisk ==> web ==> sites ==> _gallery ==> find the gallery you want - by number) and see if you can drag the photo to your desktop (and then import into iPhoto
    LN
    BTW - the most common way to lose contact with a web gallery is to make changed to it in iPhoto WHILE it is syncing with your iDisk - avoid doing this until Apple fixes this bug

  • A workaround for Aperture users to use .Mac Web Gallery

    As a user who recently switched to Aperture - I was hugely disappointed seeing some amazing new photo-related features in iLife '08 not available for Aperture users. Let alone the cash for purchasing software suites, I can't convince myself switching back to iPhoto for a single feature. So I googled and searched around...
    Some pre-requisite for the workaround: You must have iLife '08, Aperture and .Mac installed.
    _*Solution 1*_
    Create an album in Aperture that contains the images you want to upload to your .Mac Web Gallery. In iPhoto '08, create an empty library, then File > Show Aperture Library, choose the album and import images from there.
    The downside of this is the images are your Versions in preview quality.
    _*Solution 2*_
    Export Versions from Aperture and import the images to iPhoto and perform the upload.
    _*Solution 3*_
    For users building websites in iWeb, I have seen threads that one could use the media browser in iLife suite to perform similar result but it also limits to the preview quality of Aperture.
    I would have to say even the workaround is hugely disappointed but I can't see any other solutions at the moment. I couldn't recall my last ocassion on having such disappointment for Apple's software development.

    Apple really needs to rev. Aperture so it sends photos directly to the new .Mac Web Galleries.
    Everyone needs to go here:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/aperture.html
    And voice there opinion there to get this added to Aperture.

  • Web Gallery Posting from Different iPhoto 7.0.1 Libraries

    I use the program iPhoto Library Manager so that I can have more than one iPhoto library -- one for cooking, one for the garden, one for a travel trip, etc.
    I've posted a couple galleries using the "Web Gallery" feature from my cooking iPhoto library. Works fine: both galleries show up on the first page.
    Do I understand correctly that if I posted a gallery from, say, the garden iPhoto library, that it would try to synchronize the galleries at dot mac with those in the currently open iPhoto library (garden) and, because the first two galleries were in the cooking library, it would probably delete them?

    mbabc:
    No, I don't think that would happen. I've posted two galleries, each from a different library. When I posted the second it did not delete the first. It just added the second to the gallery in my .Mac account.
    Do you Twango?

  • Missing Metadata in Web Gallery images exported from Aperture.

    Images that I export directly to my .mac web gallery from aperture do not show any meta data on their info pages. In aperture the images have all meta data.
    I have checked all the presets and all include metadata. There is no specific preset for web gallery I notice.
    Has anyone else solved this?

    I want to change all the metatdata in groups to copywrighted. I can not seem to do this. There could be a checkbox on or off when importing. This would be perfect for bringing in older copywrighted archives.

  • Reload iPhoto .mac web gallery photos

    I have reinstalled iPhoto' 08 because it stopped working. After reinstall it I can update the .mac web gallery, every gallery I add, appears in .mac web gallery after the first 4 galleries wich were uploaded before reinstall iPhoto.
    Is it possible to force iPhoto to reload that galleries? I would not like to delete that galleries and upload it again.

  • How can I access images from IPhoto on my Mac to Photoshop CS6

    How can I access images from IPhoto library on my Mac to Photoshop CS6?  I enable jpg with format "Photoshop" and this is what comes up -  "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file"

    Photoshop is not a format.  It's an application.
    What you are looking at are not true JPEGs, just iPhoto's "tease" representations of the hidden images it swallowed, as explained above.

  • .mac web gallery and iPhoto '08 movies, which format?

    Hi Folks, I ran into a problem over the weekend working on a movie project. As you might have read in the forums, there is no way to load up a movie to .mac web gallery with password protection. The suggested workaround by Apple is to import your movie into iPhoto '08 and then load it up into the .mac web gallery and apply the password protection offered by iPhoto.
    But here comes the kicker, when I export movies out of iMovie '08 they have the .m4v extension, and iPhoto refuses them into it's library. So what kind of extensions of format should a export the movies to, for them to be imported into iPhoto. All help and support is welcome and appriciated!
    Cheers, CC

    Seeing as iTunes store video is m4v format I bet someone writing iTunes thought we'd better not allow anyone to add iTunes store material to an iPhoto library, so all .m4v files are locked out.
    Just tested this and exported a short .m4v and as you say when you try to import the .m4v file is greyed out.
    I think this'll work:
    Under Share choose Export using Quicktime
    I chose
    Movie to Quicktime Movie then selected Options tab
    Choose Quicktime to mov
    Use an h264 codec with AAC.
    I can certainly import that .mov to iPhoto - and create a web gallery - my uploading is very slow and everything is 'pending' at present but i thinks it's slowly going there!

  • How to remove from .Mac Web Gallery

    I must have accidentally deleted a project video from my Project Library in iMovie - because it is gone from the Project Library, but it still exists on my .Mac Web Gallery. Any ideas on how to delete it from my .Mac Web Gallery? I can't find it anywhere in the Project Library to "click on" to then go to Share, and Remove from Web Gallery -- because it's no longer in my Project Library for some reason. Any ideas?

    I'm having the same issue... I was thinking you could navigate through the iDisk to delete it, but I'd love to see if there's a better solution.
    Thanks.

  • Accessing .mac web gallery from Apple TV-2

    Do you have to enter the whole url to access a .mac web gallery? if not, how much has to be entered?
    The Apple TV cries out for a keyboard to enter passwords, etc.

    Ok, which part after which /?
    I have a web gallery called saw1
    When I access that gallery on the web, it comes up as:
    http://gallery.mac.com/seanwalmsley#100115
    However, when I enter saw1, that doesn't work. Nor does seanwalmsley#100115 or even seanwalmsley/saw1
    Any ideas?

  • IWeb not seeing .Mac Web gallery photo albums

    I uploaded a photo album created in iPhoto to .Mac Web Gallery. The photo album is accessible on the web.
    When I go into iWeb to put a link to it, I've gone to Insert>.Mac Web Gallery, which is what the instructions say you are supposed to do. However, it says "No albums or movies available."
    I saw Jason's post about a similar issue, but he said his problem was only related to creating an album with Aperture. My album was created with iPhoto, though, and it should work.
    Can someone help me resolve this issue? How can I make an album in Web Gallery available to my iWeb website?

    Having the same issue as use, and I'm publishing my Web Galleries with iPhoto, so no Aperture connection here. I was able to drag the web gallery from the Media window into a picture page, which populated the page with images, but it doesn't act like a Web Gallery connection, because images uploaded to the Web Gallery don't show up in the iWeb version of the picture pages.
    Hopefully there's a solution soon.

  • .mac web gallery compression/encoding

    I have iLife '08 on a pre-intel mac so I don't have access to iMovie '08. I'm using the web gallery feature of .mac for my movies with less than stellar results.
    Here is my workflow:
    1. Create my movie in iMovie '06
    2. Export as a QT web streaming-medium file.
    3. Import above file into iPhoto '06
    4. Share movie to .mac web gallery via iPhoto
    You can only get content into your web gallery thru iPhoto or iMovie which is why I have to go this route. The problem is, the compression/encoding via iMovie allows the viewer a choice of small/medium/large movie, with the large selection (supposedly) DVD quality. I obviously offer only one fixed steam at the present.
    My question is this, does anyone know the settings in QT pro I can use to achieve the same result as iMovie '08?

    no, there is no dialog box. When you select "import to library" iPhoto simply imports the movie file. From there, you can share it to your .mac gallery.
    Also, I don't want to strip out the other sizes. I want to include them.

  • IWeb not showing .Mac web gallery albums in Web Widgets pull down menu

    I'm trying to update a webpage and insert a .Mac Web gallery album using the Web Widgets pull down menu. The problem is the menu isn't offering/showing ALL of my .Mac Web Gallery albums. It shows some and I can insert those, however, it isn't showing all of them. I've tried refreshing the list in iPhoto, but it still won't show in iWeb '08. I've even given it several days to refresh, but to no avail.
    Any suggestions?

    Nice, didn't think of that. I went into iPhoto and, in the Settings, changed it from being only viewable to restricted groups. I opened it up to "Everyone" and, back in iWeb, there it appeared in the Web Widget pull down menu. I then inserted the album and published the web page. I then went back to iPhoto re-instated the restrictions in the Advanced settings.
    Thanks.

  • IWeb'08 lacks tight integration with .Mac Web Gallery

    I just created an album page using iWeb'08 (http://web.mac.com/rodkar/Rods.Mac_Site/My_Mac_Album/My_MacAlbum.html) . I have also used iMove'08 and iPhoto'08 to publish a few pictures and movies just to try out the new Web Gallery (http://gallery.mac.com/rodkar#gallery). I think it is clever that I can drag an album that had already been published to Web Gallery using the Media folder of iWeb on the album page. However, the same cannot be performed on movies that I had published to Web Gallery. I could only use "insert .mac web gallery" from the menu bar to insert what turned out to be an embedding of a fixed size movie on the album page. While the photo album takes advantage the new skimming feature, the movies cannot make use of the new features. Or is there another way to publish that I haven't found out yet?
    Namaste,
    Roderick
