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!

  • 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

  • .Mac Web Gallery - Limit to photos per gallery?

    Is there a limit to how many photos you can have in any one gallery? I've dedicated 5 GB to my .Mac web gallery and have published 10 or so galleries totaling approximately 700 MB. There is one project that I want to make into a gallery that is 307 photos. However EVERY time I try to publish this in Aperture 2 it immediately publishes but always with 0 versions (i.e. photos) inside. In fact it shows in Aperture 2 but on my site it does not even show up as a gallery.
    Anyone else experiencing this?
    -Keith

    Okay thank you Joe. I am trying to figure out why one of my galleries will not publish. It is 307 photos, about 900 MB (original size) and I'm trying to publish optimized photos with 5.2 GB free on .Mac. Very frustrating!!!

  • No .Mac Web Gallery visible in iWeb

    I published a gallery with 3 albums in it and can see them in Safari. However, when I try to use Insert/.Mac Web Gallery, there is noting available to insert. How do I make the Gallery visible to iWeb. Also the .jpg files are low quality. Is there some way of publishing higher quality .jpg to the iGallery?
    I'm now trying to use the Gallery since I have not been successful with publishing my web site onto .Mac with ~200 photos. There are also .avi files. Not sure if this is causing the trouble with publishing.

    UPDATE:
    It does appear as though it's an issue of security. If the Web Gallery is password protected, it won't show up in iWeb. I removed the password protection in iPhoto, and it showed up and I'm able to add it to iWeb. Now, it's not behaving quite like I thought it would, but that's another issue.

  • .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.

  • How to get .mac web gallery albums on iphone?

    hi just wondered if and how to view web gallery albums on an iphone without using safari to log into.mac. thought there may be a way of an automatic sync between the iphone and .mac web gallery?
    i know you can send photos to the web gallery but dont know how to do it the other way around if that makes any sense?
    thanks rob

    One thing to check out.
    If the person who created the .mac web gallery allowed for downloads, then you could download the photos to iphoto then sync to the iphone.
    Otherwise you would need to open the .mac gallery in safari.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to delete an Album in .Mac web gallery?

    I sent a couple of albums to my .mac web gallery using iPhoto for organization.
    A couple of months later I eliminated that particular iPhoto library all together when I re did my photo organization.
    I've since re-done the photo organization and made up a new iPhoto for just the web gallery photos (having them a smaller size)
    I published the new photos from the new iPhoto library to my .mac site but noticed there are 2 albums still there from the old iPhoto.
    Since the old iPhoto has been eliminated, how do I eliminate the old albums on the iWeb site?
    I looked and tried to find them in the hard drive library, apps support but don't see anything that says iPhoto or iWeb support.
    How do you eliminate an album on the .mac site if the original photos are not on iPhoto? I assume there should be a place on the hard drive, but where do I look?
    allie

    Go to iDisk>Web>Sites>_gallery and delete the folder.
    Perhaps it's wise to check the content of the folders if you have more than one.

  • Cannot delete .mac web gallery albums

    Strange thing has recently happened to me. I deleted two albums both from the album pane and under the web gallery pane in Iphoto but the albums have not been deleted from my .mac web gallery. Is there any way to sync iphoto and the web gallery so that the albums are deleted? In the past this has always happened automatically for me.

    Mount your iDisk, go to the Web/Sites folder and delete the contents of the _gallery folder. That should do it.
    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.

  • Aperture to .Mac Web Gallery Help please. Urgent !!

    Hi, I having been going round in circles trying to figure this out -
    Q1) I cannot find a way to update to my published .Mac web gallery from Aperture(2.1)
    When I select the versions that I want to add to the gallery I drag them into the Web
    Gallery album in the projects inspector and synchronize the gallery to update, but
    only the Master images are added to the published web gallery, not the versions !?
    Q2) Also, when I originally created the Web Gallery album Aperture imported my entire
    project (All masters, complete stacks, vers etc) but somehow only published the versions
    I had selected for publishing to a .Mac Web Gallery. Why has aperture included the Masters,
    complete stacks etc in the Web Gallery album ?
    If someone could help with this, particularly Q1, it would be much appreciated as I have
    a client waiting to see more versions which I cannot manage to add to the existing
    published Web Gallery for that client.
    Thx

    Hi Ernie, thx for responding.
    I have tried everything, but same result - Aperture only publishes the unedited Master, not the version with Adjustments. When I originally published images to the .Mac web gallery I disabled all downloads, as the gallery is intended for client review & selection only.
    Some further questions if you don't mind.. Am I doing the right thing in dragging versions from the project to the Web Gallery album (in projects inspector)? When I do that I see that Aperture copies both the Master & version to the web gallery album (they are both visible in the web gallery album) The problem is that only the Master is published to the .Mac web gallery (which i don't want), and not the edited Version(which I do want) This worked ok the first time around when I created the web gallery album and published it to .Mac galleries, however I did notice that the web gallery album in Aperture contains the entire contents of the project (Masters, complete stacks & versions etc)
    The Aperture manual is very vague on adding new images to a web gallery album and publishing them to an existing >mac Web gallery. It says that this can be done, but not how to do so. I may be missing something simple and obvious, but the Aperture user manual is really not sufficient in this area. Any further ideas or suggestions would be welcome. Thx again.

  • Sharing to .Mac Web Gallery

    I am in the process of creating a web site which will contain video. I have been able to insert hyperlinks in the right places but all of the sudden two things happen; iMovie 08 will not upload (share) to .Mac Web Gallery-getting message saying to verify account settings (it is correct) and also to check internet connection-nothing wrong there either. In the iWeb side of it after inserting the hyperlinks the programs takes its time and comes back with a message saying in effect the same as in iMovie.
    Can anyone help with his? Would appreciate it.
    Thank you,
    Damaso

    Have you gotten this to work yet?
    I have the exact same problem.
    I posted feedback at http://www.apple.com/feedback/imovie.html
    "Every time I select Share>.Mac Web Gallery the window comes up showing it is connecting, then a second window comes up saying Already a member? Click Sign In to enter your .Mac member name and password. Since I am already signed in (idisk is functioning fine)I click cancel, sign out, then try to share again. When the second window opens up I click sign in, which I do, and .mac show me signed in, but nothing happens with imovie. If I try to share again, the same windows come up."
    If you have found a solution please share it.

  • Embedding the .mac Web Gallery in another page?

    Hi all,
    I love the way the .mac web gallery operates. It is a study in elegance and technology. However, it is NOT a good professional tool to show clients.
    The fact that I cannot place my own navigation in the page, and that there is no graceful way to exit out of the gallery (other than to close the browser window) reduces its usefulness as a pro tool. My clients are confused the implementation.
    So, I thought maybe I could embed the .mac web gallery in one of my own web pages. (this way I have all of the navigation to my site in place). Any thoughts about how I would accomplish such a thing?

    .. I'm publishing the movie direct to the Web Gallery though iMovie '08.
    ahh, I see.. no, I don't think so, that's possible from within iM08 .. I can not find a setting in its options.
    in QTpro, there's an easy single-click solution for that, 'View/Set Poster frame', which adds a manual selected poster frame...
    so, live with the preset, use iWeb or purchase QTpro seem to be your only options..

  • .Mac Web Gallery crashes Safari

    I am replacing our old iWeb photo pages with a .Mac Web Gallery. I've got 63 Albums that I've turned into galleries. When I try to load the main gallery page I get this error from Safari:
    *A script on the page ".Mac Web Gallery -" ( http://gallery.mac.com/maximum ) is making Safari unresponsive. Do you want to continue running the script, or stop it?*
    I think the two options were Stop and Continue, but which ever one I click the alert box just pops up again. Force quitting is the only way to stop them.
    I've been refreshing the page after every few album additions and didn't get this error until after the 60th gallery was added. Has anyone else gotten this error? How many galleries/photos did you have?
    Thanks!
    -Sean

    I have gotten this error also. When I reached around 40 albums i started to notice it in firefox. I then tried it from a few different computers using IE 7, Firefox and Safari and was getting the same error. You are correct in the Stop and Continue. If you hit continue it seems to not load the page correctly.

  • .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
