Mobile Me galleries in iphoto

How do I delete any trace of my mobile me galleries from my iphoto application? I have signed out of MM, but the online albums still appear in the side bar. I do not host any photos from this computer.
Thanks

Are they password protected? If so that's why. Otherwise try deleting the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist.
Are you able to see iPhoto's albums, pics in the Media Browser in iWeb? If not you can try the following: open the iPhoto Library package, move the AlbumData.xml file to the desktop and launch iPhoto. That will rebuild that AlbumData.xml file which is what the Media Browser uses to show the albums, etc. in iPhoto. It probably will rebuild the web gallery list as well.

IWeb, IPhoto and Mobile Me Galleries

I have several websites on mobile me and also with go daddy. I have a picky problem with thumbnails and Mobile me Galleries. Here's the workflow and problem:
I have a group of videos that are related. Instead of using a flash playlist (IPhones can't play them), I open IPhoto and drag say 10 videos into IPhoto and create a new album. I then published that album to my mobile me gallery. All is fine except that the video thumbnails are not set wher I want them. Mobile me automatically sets the first frame as the thumbnail and since I fade up from black, the first frame is black. So once the gallery is up on my IDisk, I open IWeb and create an album page. WHile IPhoto is open, I drag the Album to my IWeb page. Again, all of the thumbnails are black. I double click on the album and the new page opens and all of the individual videos are there. I click one and then in the inspector, I choose quicktime and I can move the slider to select a new thumbnail (POster Frame) All is perfect. Here are the problems:
1. When I publish to mobile me or a folder and upload that folder to my godaddy site, it wants to re-upload to the gallery which takes a HUGE amount of time.Is there anyway to only upload the posterframe changes to the existing gallery? BTW, these changes to my IWeb page do NOT make changes to the Gallery thumbnails themselves, only to the reference within IWeb.
2. If I do this for another page, involving a new gallery of videos, it wipes out my original thumbnails that I set for the first set of galleries. When I go back to IWeb to re-select thumbnails for the second time and re-upload those pages to Mobile Me or Godaddy, It sends the whole gallery up, taking ANOTHER whole bunch of time to do it.
Any ideas on how to permanently set the thumbnails in Mobile Me? I'm sure you can't change them there.

You uploaded the pictures and movies twice.
Once to the MobileMe gallery.
The second time to the Webserver.
Here's a solution to soften the pain.
Display a MobileMe gallery page. Set the display you want.
Copy the URL in the browser addressfield.
In iWeb create a page and add a HTML Snippet.
Paste this line of code in the HTML Snippet and use the URL of your MMe gallery page as the src :
<iframe src="http://url.to.MMeGallery.html" frameborder="0" width="500" height="500" scrolling="no" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>
Adjust the width and height numbers.
Now you have your MMe gallery in an iWeb page without the trouble of uploading twice.

Mobile Me Galleries in iWeb maintain formatting and features?

Hello,
Perhaps this is more of an iWeb question than an Aperture question, but here it goes.
My question is: Can you integrate Aperture/Mobile Me galleries into iWeb? If so, do they maintain their formatting and features (eg, mosaic display, passwords for clients, etc)?
Thanks very much
Christian

A gallery can be integrated into your website by linking to it.
If you want to have the gallery in the main navigation you will have to hide the standard one and build your own. The gallery link in this menu will be an external link and should be set to open in a new window so that viewers don't have to use their back button.

You can also link to a Mobile Me gallery by clicking on the widget icon, selecting MobileMe Gallery and selecting the particular one from the list.

Lost link to mobile me galleries

I was uploading some pictures to my mobile me gallery when Aperture quit unexpectedly. When I restarted Aperture, all of the links to my mobile me galleries were gone from the project pane. I tried rebuilding the library but it did not help. Any suggestions about how to go about relinking to Mobile Me?

Mobile Me Galleries in Aperture Project List

If I create a mobile me gallery in aperture it appears on the project list, near the top under mobile me galleries. That's fine, until I close aperture and then the next time I open it I don't have any mobile me galleries listed. It hasn't always been like this, I first noticed it about a month ago but it might have happened before then. The galleries are still on my .me space, I know that I haven't deleted them. However if I go into Aperture, preferences and go on the mobile me tab I can see all the galleries listed, I then have to click the 'check now', the galleries then reappear in my project list, although sometimes I have error messages during the process. So whilst I can get around the problem, it's not ideal and I'd really like to have all my published galleries in my project list so I can edit them. I'm using Aperture 2.1.2 and OS 10.4.11.
Has anyone else had a similar problem - any suggestions and help would be much appreciated.
Many thanks
Berni

Creating .Mac web Galleries with iPhoto '08

OK, I'm fairly new to the Mac world, and started using my .Mac account this week to show vacation photos. I've created a few photo albums and published them to my .Mac account. But now when you go to gallery.mac.com/jasonskwarek you get prompted with a password to access the images. I've checked the galleries in iPhoto, deleted and re-uploaded them, there is no password set there yet I still get this prompt. Anyone have any ideas?
Also, when creating a new album and clicking the Web Gallery icon to create the web gallery it only uploads one image, I have to create the Web Gallery again and the second one will post all the images, I then delete the one that was created first. Am I doing something wrong here as well? I've created maybe 8 galleries and this has happened with every gallery that I upload.
TIA,
Jason

First - are yuou running the latest version of iPhoto - version 7.1.1? - if not update and try again
Second recheck the setttings - select a web gallery in the source pane (the left hand side bar) and click on the options (the little gear lookin thingy at the bottom of the screen) and be sure that everyone is allow to view and that there is no password - sounds like you did but be sure
next would be to delete the gallery, trash you iPhoto preferences and try again
Good Luck

How can I reorder my MobileMe galleries within iPhoto?

I used to be able to re-order my MobileMe galleries within iPhoto by dragging them around in the sidebar. At least that's how I recall doing it. Now it appears I can't do that, and the latest gallery I've published to the web is now the first item in the list. How do I move it down the list?

OK, I got it figured out. Seems Apple made some changes without telling anyone. (NOOOO!!!!) First off the old iDisk address for the public folder app is no good anymore, they have revamped the app at public.me.com/your user name to look like the normal idisk.
You can no longer re-order your MobilMe synced folders in iPhoto but if you go to the Gallery folder in MobilMe you can drag them to any order you want and the next time you open iPhoto they will re-sync to the order you specified.
It would have saved me a lot of hunting around and frustration if they would just publish a change log and send it to MobilMe users, not that hard and would go far in improving their image.

HT5129 How do you stop iPhoto from asking to migrate mobile me galleries?

Since early this summer, every time I launch iPhoto, I see a prompt asking me to migrate mobileme galleries. If I click OK (or whatever) it fails. If I click Tell Me More, it opens a browser window with a help article. It never gives up. It's a mild annoyance but I'd like it to stop.
I just tried logging out of mobile me as suggested in another thread. I still got the popup. This time when I selected continue, it seemed to work and I have a large number of "from mobile me" albums that suddenly showed up. Hopefully this is behind me and I won't see that popup any more but I'll leave this thread open in case anyone can either add more information or benefit from my experience so far.

There really is nothing about mm in iphoto preferences except an old email account that would be used to send photos which I never do anyway so it wouldn't make a difference. I did, however log out of mobile me in system preferences and things started working again. No more popups. It seems that if you remain logged in to mobileme, iPhoto fails to finish copying your stuff into "from mobile me" and keeps nagging you until you log out.

Mobile me galleries on 2 computers (2 iphoto programs)

Ok I manually added pictures to both of my computer's iphoto. On one computer I made a mobile me gallery using a photo album on iphoto. The other computer (an imac) tries to load the mobile me gallery but the photos are a little heavy and so the photos do not load from the "cloud." Everytime I put the regular photos in the mobile me gallery, the other computer thinks the mobile me gallery is new and tries to download it (even though the mobile me gallery with the photos from the album is exactly the same). Has anyone had this recurring problem? Is there anyway iphotos can sync on my network (the computers share an internet connection). Thank you in Advance, Kate

Steve,
they files downloaded from Mobile Me should be duplicates, but please check and convince yourself before you delete anything; you may have deleted a few of the original versions by now.
Set the "Photos" view to sort by title or date, so that similar photos are displayed close to each other.
Then select two potential duplicates and use the command "File > Reveal in Finder" to show the original files.
Only if this clearly reveals two different files on your harddrive, you can be sure that you really have duplicate photos. Compare the "Info" on your two duplicates and make sure you keep the versions with the highest resolution. You may want to flag the photos in the Mobile Me events, then you should see alternating flagged and unflagged images when sorting the photos view by date or title.
For example, sorting the photos in Photos View by title reveals:
file://localhost/Volumes/HermioneMedia/iPhotoLibsToCheck/iPhoto%20China%202006/

Galleries in iPhoto/Mobile Me don't show in iWeb's Gallery widget

I have 30+ galleries all visible from the web and showing in iPhoto. None of them show in iWeb.

Are they password protected? If so that's why. Otherwise try deleting the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist.

Album photo order in Apple TV 2 mobile me galleries = Failure

While the order of my photos in my iPhoto albums is preserved on Apple TV 2 via 'Computers' it is clearly using image file names to sort if you go in via 'Internet>Mobile Me'. This is especially annoying since you can view your albums in order not only on the web but also on the iPhone's 'Gallery' app. Since both the iPhone and the Apple TV 2 use iOS4, one would think that Apple TV 2 would be able to do a simple but very important thing like preserve photo order within albums. One of the major reasons for getting one of these for my dad was so he could easily view baby photos on his tv. It's annoying to watch my baby go from 3 months old to birth to 1 month old in my albums! When friends try to show vacation photos from their albums... well forget it.
It's hard to tell a photo story when all of your photos are completely out of order; which is very much the case if you happen to be combining photos from more than one camera since different cameras will be naming the files with different prefixes.
My only solution so far is to import all photos that will be used in an album into iPhoto, batch change their titles to the 'time and date' they were taken, then export those photos using 'titles as filename' option, then deleting all the photos iPhoto, then reimporting them. That way when they are put onto Mobile Me/Apple TV 2 they will be at least in chronological order. What a complete pain in the ---.
Any other solutions to this problem?

I suspect that you will have to re-edit the metadata to accomplish your goal. As images are copied and moved this is often modified (place/geotag, faces, dates).......... Just a though. You can download the photos and both check it and if necessary change it in iPhoto

Mobile Me galleries shown in iWeb widget options

I have discovered the MobileMe galleries that are listed as an option to add are only those created in iPhoto or iWeb. Although the Media panel gives way to Aperture libraries, it doesn't incorporate the MobileMe galleries created in Aperture.
Is there a work-around to add the MobileMe galleries from Aperture into the widget in iWeb? I realize this may be more or less an "Aperture" question - but because it is in iWeb, I thought to ask here first. Thanks!

It's a known problem; try this work-around...
Log into me.com and open the gallery you prepared in aperture.
Select the "Adjust the settings for this album" button at the top, then select the pop-up that says "Syncs with" and choose "iPhoto" instead of "Aperture".
Press "Publish".
That's it, the gallery now appears in the iWeb Widgets list!
Also it still syncs with Aperture, both way
...Quoted from this old thread:

Will Aperture work with existing iWeb pages and MM galleries from iPhoto?

Now that Aperture is available as an $80 app, I am considering moving from iPhoto to Aperture. If I do, will Aperture work seamlessly with my existing iWeb pages and MM galleries, set up via iWeb and/or iPhoto? The other editing programs I use on occasion are Nikon Capture NX2, and Photoshop Elements. Also, if I want to at time remain in "simple iPhoto" mode while using Aperture, is this possible, or will my life be more complicated for every edit? Thank you!

Slightly disappointed in the dearth of good web page
creating options in Aperture (you'd think they'd be
better, no?). Can I get iWeb and create web pages
using my Aperture photos?
Yes, iWeb can access your Aperture images if you've enabled previous. I tried this and found iWeb's web galleries quite horrid. After experimenting with a variety of options, I settled on customizing Aperture's web galleries and grafting together pages created by the two programs. iWeb works fine for throwing together some top level pages, and you can then hang Aperture web galleries off them as external links. Several folks have posted instructions on how to do this, and one fellow assembled a nice PDF.
Cheers,

Aperture3, Lion, and the cloud: Where did my Mobile Me Galleries go?

How do I share my photo galleries from Mobile Me? Not photostream but specific galleries. I am using Aperture 3, OS 10.7.2 and Mobile Me. When I migrated to iCloud my galleries seem to have disappeared but Aperture is still uploading galleries to somewhere.

And to publish a new specific gallery to Mobile Me drag a Mobile Me icon to the toolbar of your main Aperture window (View -> Customize Toolbar).
Select the images you want to share in the Browser window and press the Mobile Me icon in the toolbar. Then you will see a panel where you define an album to be published as Mobile Me Gallery.

Losing Mobile Me galleries due to failed connection

I just started using my Mobile Me account with Aperture and was initially impressed with the galleries. Very spiffy!
But then the troubles started. The last two galleries I made didn't update due to problems connecting to the mobileme upload site. To make matters worse, the entire gallery then disappeared from the list. I have one that just didn't update and one that has disappeared on me (twice now!). After the first time, I created an album to collect pictures before remaking the online gallery.
Any ideas of what's going on? Is it likely a local issue or is there something with MobileMe?

Wonder if all of this has to do with this new malignant virus that's surfaced? I've noticed very sluggish, download times--akin to the old network overloads of the past. So uncharacteristic of Mac....
