Mobile me gallery vs Aperture 3 -- incompatible?

My Mobile Me gallery worked perfectly in Aperture 2. I upgraded to Aperture 3 and about 20% of my gallery images got deleted and the remaining ones appeared in a random order. I am rebuilding the galleries now, but the process is VERY annoying (not to mention the time and effort needed to select from ten thousand images). The order of the images keep changing; when I try to rearrange then, some stay in their desired positions while others jump around. Although my update preference is set to "manual", Aperture keeps updating every 30 seconds or so, slowing down work significantly. My final grudge is that some of the images that appear in the published gallery are not the same as the ones I chose to create the gallery. It appears that Aperture 3 is full of bugs ... Any advice?

Aperture does not have bugs any more, at least that is what some folk would have you believe.
If you have just installed Ap3. It needs quite a long time to do all that it has to, to finish fully, and depending mostly on the library size, it could take a couple of days to several to finish. It is best left to get on with it. If this is not the problem then i have no other ideas. Allan

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

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.
See....
http://iwebfaq.org/site/iWebNavigationmenu.html
... for building our own.
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.

Delete picture from a Mobile Me album in Aperture

Hi,
I just made a mobile me gallery out off the aperture interface and sync the content to mobile me. So far so good. But I was wondering if it's possible to delete pictures in the mobile me gallery in aperture. If I want to delete a picture in the gallery the picture will also be deleted in aperture, and that I don't want... I just want to change the pictures in the gallery. Off course I can delete the pictures in the mobile me web-interface, but the pictures are still in aperture-mobile-me gallery and will be back in the gallery the next time you sync the gallery I guess.
thanks in advance for any reply.
Pascal.

MobileMe Galleries are simply a type of album. Deleting an image from an album will not delete the image from Aperture. Simply select the image. and press the delete key. Aperture will warn you before it deletes a master, but it will remove a version from am Album without comment.

Aperture 3.1: Adding watermark by uploading pictures to Mobile Me gallery.

Hi,
In the "Image Export" presets there is an option to ad a watermarkt on the picture.
Is there any way to add a watermark when uploading pictures to the Mobile Me Gallery, using the Mobile me button??
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Jos

Apple did seem to drop the ball on this one. There is no way from within Aperture to add a watermark to an image set to Facebook, Flickr or MobileMe. This is a highly requested feature so add add your voice to the crowd requesting this by going to [Apple Aperture Feedback|http://www.apple.com/feedback/aperture.html]

IWeb and Mobile Me gallery?

I am using iWeb to create my web site but publishing my photos from iPhoto to the mobile me gallery. In iWeb I am using the Black theme where it puts the main links to the different pages across the top. I would like to add a link there that goes to the gallery.me.com page. how do I do this??
Thanks for the help.

iWeb: you don't need to save anything from the iDisk - iWeb does not open html files. Your iWeb sites are held in (user)/Library/Application Support/iWeb in a file called Domain. So even after MobileMe terminates you will still be able to open iWeb and see your sites, you just won't be able to publish them to MobileMe. You can publish them to any other webspace - please see this page:
http://rfwilmut.net/migrate2
Gallery: if your albums arre synced with iPhoto or Aperture then the pictures are on your Mac anyway. If not, and you don't have local copies (which is always a risky procedure) you will have to download each picture separately. Alternatively there is an online photo gallery service called ZangZing which provides an easy import facility from various other services including MobileMe's Gallery. It's free until June 2012 after which the first 2GB is free with escalating price levels starting at $5 per month or $50 a year.

"Mobile me" gallery sorting

Hey guys,
Two problems with Aperture 3 :
1) Impossible to sort "mobile me" gallery by name : it always comes back in weird orders...
2) Aperture 3 keeps freezing when I try to close it, forcing me to "force quit" it. Then, other problem emerged, like my iphone wouldn't get all the pictures of my librairies when syncronizing. I tried to "repair" it by cmd+option, and then, it made me a separate file "recovered project" with like 200 pictures in it — which I still have in my initial file, but as "copies" : if I delete the "recovered project", those will miss the "original" file...
Any idea of a solution, or should I just export my 6 000 pics library to reimport it with a clean install — with the "store file in their current location" option checked ?
thanks !
bill

I am having similar problems, also in reordering multiple galleries in iPhoto.
try leaving feedback for Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html to make them aware of the issues. Maybe they will fix this in a future update. it did work in iPhoto '08 after all.

Can't copy images from smart albums to mobile me gallery

Folks,
I'm rather new to Aperture ... so my question might be a trivial one. I'm having trouble to drag images from a smart album to a Mobile Me album. The images simply do not end up in the gallery. I can, however, create a new gallery from a selection in a smart album, and I can drag images from their regular albums to the Mobile me gallery. Is this a restriction in Aperture 2.1.4?

Same problem here.
Is this just not possible?
Do I have to re-create a new MobileMe gallery every time I want to add photos?
Maybe someone wrote a script?
Thanks for any reply answering one of those frustrating questions

Moving entire library to mobile me gallery

I'm curious if there is a way to move my entire Aperture library over to mobile me. I know that I can create a gallery in mobile me and sync it with a particular gallery in Aperture but I'm hoping there is a way to sync the whole library (albums/projects/etc.) and have mobile me create it's own galleries with these photos. Anyone have any experience with this?
Thanks.

Not that I have seen. I wanted to sync a project over, and I had to create Mobile Me albums for each of the albums in my project I wanted on Mobile Me.

Exporting videos to Mobile Me gallery not working

I have a Mobile Me album in Aperture 3 which only synchronizes photos. Everytime I try to upload a video to the Mobile Me gallery, Aperture hangs during the synchronization process.

Something that works for me; drag the file you want to iMovie and upload from there. It is an extra step, but a lot less agrivation and it works.
Good luck

Announce MobileMe Gallery in Aperture

I have recently made the switch to Aperture.
I have created a new MobileMe gallery. How do I announce this gallery in Aperture? It was easy in iPhoto.
TIA
PK

G,day,
When you select the Mobile Me gallery, in the Library Inspector, it loads the images in Viewer, Browser or Split view, (what ever you have selected)
Then at the bottom right of the screen is a little drop down arrow lablled MobileMe
It offers you three options, the third is "Tell a friend".
Click and it will open a mail message, (I happen to use Mail, but I'm really old fashioned like that)
It will have a small photo icon from the gallery and a View Gallery button.
You add the name of the recipient(s), any info you want and send. Hi-presto, job done.
Hope that helps

Deleting pics in mobile me gallery deletes image in project

I dont believe it, i just came across ANOTHER aperture 3 bug:
i had some images imported in my importing project
i made a mobile me gallery out of it.
in the library on the left, i selected the mobile me gallery to delete some pictures from this gallery because i did not want them published.
i click on the PROJECT (where all files should be stored regardless what i deleted from the mobile me gallery) to find that those images i deleted from the gallery are in the bin, they are not in the project anymore!
another fatal bug......

Please Control-click (or right-click) on any image in a MobileMe Gallery to see the options that are available, which include Delete Version and Remove from Album. If you choose Delete Version you should see the warning without having to actually proceed to delete anything. The options are the same as with any album.
I never use the Delete key for any of this, but I will test as time allows -- apparently, based upon your experience, it is the same as Delete Version, but as to lack of warning, I will have to test. I would never assume the Delete key is the same as Remove from Album, which is the needed command.

Download Pictures in Mobile Me Gallery are always Adobe RGB

High there,
I imported the sRGB Files from my Lumix LX3. The Files are sRGB.
Then I created a mobile me gallery.
The Download File is now Adobe RGB. ( I set all web export settings to sRGB )
What happend here it just could be sRGB with a wrong tag , or ????
Help would be great
Dirk from Berlin with Aperture 2.1 and Mac OSX 10.5.5

Yes they are. Write to Apple - makes them useless for anyone that does not have a color managed browser/color managed system. I have complained about this since day one of .mac galleries in Aperture 2.

Can not view mobile me gallery videos on IPHONE

Can any body tell me why i can not view my mobile me gallery videos on my Iphone? When i bring up my gallery on my phone it only shows some of my posted video not all of them and the time has 0:00. If you try and play it you get an error message.

When you send an email announcement for others to view a MM gallery, you can Bcc yourself with the message - to your MM address.
If you store all sent messages on the server, you can access the sent message in your MM account's Sent mailbox. This will provide you the link to your MM gallery, which you can bookmark for later use or create a web clip which will be placed on your iPhone's Home screen for faster access.

Problem using email to upload image files to Mobile Me gallery

I will cross post this question to both Mail and Mobile Me discussion groups because I don't know where my problem lies.
I have published a gallery page from iPhoto to my Mobile Me gallery. There are two ways to upload additional photos. I am not having trouble adding image files with the Upload feature. I cannot get the email function to work. The emails I send to the email address for the gallery bounce back to my mail inbox.
Subject: Delivery Notification: Delivery has failed
and in the body of the bounced email:
Recipient address: [email protected]
Reason: SMTP transmission failure has occurred
Diagnostic code: smtp;521 5.2.1 Fatal failure of WOA

One of the images I am trying to attach is a jpeg file of 61 kb.
I have tried to drag the image from my desktop to the body of the email. I have tried using the "attach" function and selecting the file name. I am not sending any text with these files.
When I built these albums, I checked and enabled all the options.
I am having this same issue when I try to upload via email to any of my Mobile Me gallery pages.
There is currently one photo displayed here:
http://gallery.me.com/tplattenberger#100352
If anyone wishes to try to upload to that gallery using email (Send to Album) that would be great and if successful, that might provide a clue to my problem.
As I say, I currently have one photo there. If you find a lot more, please do not add.
What's the problem?
Tom

The images I am trying are newly created and old.
A weird hint perhaps...
I just copied an image from Apple's home page and pasted it into the email and tried again...
it worked.
So I tried again, dragging from iPhoto and it did not work... the email bounced back.
So I tried again, this time using copy and paste (like I did from Apple's page) from iPhoto... it did not work.

Mobile Me gallery sorting issue

I recently upgraded iLife from '08 to '09. I am having an issue when I publish and event to my Mobile Me Gallery where its not sorting the photos correctly in the gallery. They don't seem to sorted the same way as I have them in the event when I publish them to the mobile me gallery, its not doing it every time just sometimes. I know I can go into the published gallery within iPhoto and go to view > sort and change it in there but it seems strange that I would have to do that. Why wouldn't it publish the same way as I have them sorted in the event. It also seems that sometimes when I do resort them in the gallery that it doesn't stay. Also is there a way to set the default setting to sort a certain way? Thanks.
