MobileMe Gallery features in iweb?
I have started to create a Family website using iWeb and want to be able to allow family members to upload and download pictures to their own albums on the site. It looks like a MobileMe Gallery would provide that type of functionality, but I do not have a MobileMe account and can no longer sign up for one. Is their anything in iWeb or iCloud that would provide this same type of functionality?
iWeb just made the layout and appears to not be expected to continue developement.
MobileMe Gallery does not currently appear to have an equal in iCloud.

Remember we are in the digital age where things constantly change. iPhoto support sharing to Facebook and Flickr directly. If I were to hazzard a guess not many people, as an average, were publishing to MobileMe, opting for the other mentioned solutions. You and I might be part of a minority that did. It is possible that a similar feature will appear down the road, but for now... don't count on it.

Adding mobileme gallery content in iWeb with a personal domain
I've been building gorgeous looking pages in iWeb this year which I have attached to a personal domain.
I'm having trouble adding a movie that I have published on my mobileme gallery as widget is telling me there is nothing available. Could this be because I have iWeb pointed towards my own domain even though it's hosted by mobileme?
I'm confused and really want to add this video as something over than through a hyperlink.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Paul.Paul:
If you have a MMe gallery that you want separate from the others but still have viewable in an iWeb site and page set its setting in iPhoto to be hidden from the rest of the gallery:
Click to view full size
Visit the gallery online and copy it's URL address. Add that address to iFrame code in an HTML snippet as I've done in this demo page: MobileMe Galleries and Quicktime Movies (the code is shown on the page). You can set the gallery to disiplay in any of the availablemodes, grid, mosaic, etc., by using the URL for that mode.
The visitor can view the gallery but will not be able to go to your other galleries. Just a way to post a single gallery to your web page.

MobileMe gallery movie in iweb too small
I posted my videoin my MobileMe gallery. I posted two sizes, iphone size and a HD size. I then use the MobileMe gallery widget to use that video in my website. I want the large size to show up in my website. Though it only allows me to resize to the small iphone size.
I'm thinking it's defaulting to the small size. Is there a way to have both sizes in my gallery, and use only the large size? Or do I just need two different files uploaded as two different movies.
thanks

Linking MobileMe gallery back to iWeb
I have created a iweb 08 site which links to my mobileMe galleries but once you are inside the main gallery which contains all of the galleries there is no way of linking back to my site.
Am I missing something ?
Thanks in advance...The obvious solution is to not use Aperture to create your gallery.
Apple has included some dirt-easy ways to share your files via galleries that export directly from your iApps. The galleries purpose are to quickly share files, like an Apple version of YouTube. If you want more control over the pages you have to create them yourself using iWeb. Make a picture or a movie gallery in iWeb and you can link it to other pages and play with the format ad nauseam. This is not hard to do. You can drag a whole set of picts into an iWeb page and it automatically generates the picture table. One thing that I have found is that to keep the pictures in the order I wish I drag them one at a time. iWeb uses some crazy scheme to determine the order they are in otherwise. (It is not by filename which would be logical.) You can easily arrange them on the page but I don't like having to do the extra step.
I looked at my galleries in my iDisk to see if the html might be editable. From what I can tell there is not editable html since there is no index pages. There may be a way to include an html "back" snippet but I can't see how. Apple has intentionally disabled the user controls on these galleries.

Using MobileMe Gallery instead of iWeb 06 for eBay Picture Hosting
img src="http://gallery.me.com/YOURUSERNAME/100016/DCP17093/web.jpg"
After a problem with iWeb '06 I discovered, with help from members here and on eBay, that I can use MM Gallery for eBay. You Control-Click your Gallery picture to get its URL and paste that into your item description.UPDATE!
There's a package of 3 html files, one that is called index.html. that can find the URL of a photo on the grid page of an iWeb photo page. When used it will look like this

I'll put the zipped folder on my Cellar site in a bit and post back here with the URL to download it.

IWeb '09 / Mobileme Gallery Widget / No Albums or Movies / Snow Leopard
This is my first time trying to use the Mobileme Gallery Widget in iWeb '09 and all I can get it to do is tell me "No Albums or Movies". I have non password / no hidden galleries published via iPhoto '09 and iMovie '09. I even tried publishing via me.com. Nothing. It publishes my site to mobileme just fine I just upgraded to Snow Leopard this afternoon if that makes any difference. I had never tried this feature before today so I can't say if it worked prior to the upgrade or not. I do use a personal domain and iWeb does see this and can publish the site to it but all the site has is my test blank page and an blank mobileme widget in it. Any ideas?

Thanks. I'll try avoiding those features until there's an update to SL and/or iWeb'09. Happily iWeb09 with SL deals fine with my website in its current rather featureless configuration so I'll keep it simple for now

IWeb & MobileMe Gallery ????
Can someone explain to me Apple's strategy or idea behind having the MobileMe "Gallery" functionality in Mobleme and iPhoto, Aperature etc and also having iWeb ? Especially considerng that they publish to different places.
Is there any way to get iWeb to publish to the MobileMe "gallery" instead of iDisk ?
I just don't understand where Apple is going with both "tools". Anyone got any ideas as to what all this means long term? What does Apple have to say about the two disparate environments ?
TIA,
PeterPeterWor wrote:

Peter ~ I suppose the answer is that the MobileMe "Gallery" functionality in MobileMe, iPhoto, Aperture, etc. is necessary for those who want to simply publish photo galleries without learning a website creation tool such as iWeb. And +"also having iWeb"+ is necessary for those who want to publish web pages that aren't simply photo galleries.
PeterWor wrote:
Especially considerng that they publish to different places.
It's probably a wise move on Apple's part that they do publish to different places — not all the eggs are in one basket. Also, a photo gallery is just one type of web page and it's reasonable that iPhoto & Aperture can publish the photos in their photo libraries to a special type of web page called a MobileMe Gallery. Plus, the integration is tighter from those apps than it would be from iWeb's indirect access to photos via the Media Browser.
...But I admit that the variety of ways to publish and access MobileMe web pages and Galleries can be confusing at first.
PeterWor wrote:

No — The Galleries have a special location and structure on iDisk that iPhoto, iMovie and Aperture set up during publishing. iWeb doesn't set up that Gallery environment. iWeb does, however, allow you to embed an existing MobileMe Gallery in your iWeb site — see this video tutorial:

I doubt that you could find something written by Apple that would discuss them as "disparate environments". I suspect Apple considers that the different environments it offers are necessary to provide flexibility and choice — but admittedly the result of that can be confusion, especially when first starting to review the different approaches. Some, despite having successfully published their galleries here:
http://gallery.me.com/membername
...are unaware that they can then control some aspects of it from here:

Iweb Photo Album vs MobileMe Gallery or...
... should I look for flickr or something?
Hi guys new mac user in every sense...the wife got her Macbook on December and I couldn't resist and got my mine three days ago.
Guys...I'm creating a website with iweb and although right now does not have a lot of pics, I know it will...so please guys:
1. If I want the visitors to have a fast access (loading) to the albums...which is the best option? iweb Photo Album or the MobileMe Gallery widget?
I know that at the end all the pics will be loaded on/from the MobileMe server, but just wanted to check if one have proved being faster than the other.
2. The other thing I was concern about was of course space..that's why I though about putting all the pics on flickr, photobucket...and then embed an album on iWeb...can I do that?
thanks guys and please if this has already been discussed please post a link...I did the search and nothing came up.hey guys...I found this http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10742043� Aztian said that his photos load faster using iWeb Photo Albums...it would be nice to have more info...thanks!

I am trying to upload pictures from the MobileMe Gallery. I have albums published but when I move the MobileMe widget to the web page I am creating it reads "No albums or movies". Please help.
I've jumpstarted the MMe widget with the following 2 fixes before:
Try this:
quit iWeb
go to the System/MobileMe preference pane and log out of MMe.
login with a bogus username and password like "Ying" and "Yang". This clears the caches.
login with your correct username and password.
launch iWeb and try again.
Ahother method that worked one time was:
delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
launch iWeb and try again.
HOWEVER, a way to embed your MMe gallery and not worry about fixes is to go online and get the URL of your MMe gallery and plug it into the following code in an HTML snippet:
<script src="http://gallery.mac.com/g/flash/photowidget_iefix.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
writeObj("http://gallery.me.com/MobileMeName/XXXXXX", 226, 199);
</script>
Thanks to Wyodor for the code.
Where XXXXXX is the number of your MobileMe gallery

Lost Links to MobileMe Gallery on iWeb after updating to Snow Leopard
I recently updated my OS to Snow Leopard. I appear to have lost all of my past iWeb links to my MobileMe Galleries. It is so frustrating. This is a lot of work from the past. All of the pictures still appear on Mobile Me Gallery but the iWeb site does not recognize them. The place where the pictures used to be now has a white box with text "Upload album or movie to MobileMe and then select it from this widget's menu." Why! When I try to use the MobileMe Gallery widget like I did in the past, it sees none of my galleries! Does anyone have any idea what is wrong? Thanks.
Here is what the page looks like now. You can see where the galleries used to be. --> http://web.mac.com/georgeparsons/TatnallRunPics/Home.htmlHi I just made one of my few visits to these forums because I had a problem kinda similar to yours. It was sending me nuts. Main indication of the problem was that when I went to add an album widgit it didn't show any of the albums I have in iphoto and no other fiddling back and forth republishing and the like fixed it. This was after working properly earlier in the day. I have just started to build a new website with iweb.
I then updated to the latest version of iweb, that is 3.0.1, and yes you guessed it, now its working fine. So just in case i thought i would mention what worked for me tho i see others with different fixes to the same problem. So this worked on my 2.4 MBP running 10.5.6 and iweb 3.0.1.

Some features/options needed when using mobileme gallery in iframe
hi@all
i have built this iweb site and embedded my mobilemegallery like this:
<iframe width="1280" height="900
" frameborder="0" src="http://gallery.me.com/friereida#100008&view=mosaic&sel=0" more attributes>
</iframe>
so what i need is:
how can i access more attributes so that the option button on the right upper corner is disabled or if this is not working i want just that the options are disabled but you can enable it with the button, but default=disabled.
as you can see my default view is mosaic!
when i leave the current album and go to another one on my mobileme gallery the default view is Raster how can i handle this that my default view is always mosaic in all of my public gallerys?
thanks a lot for your help
pgepplCyclosaurus is the top javascript person in this forum. He's posted many tips and solutions using advanced javascript in HTML snippets. Most, no nearly all of his stuff is over my head and I just copy, use and recommend. Find one of his posts and ask him to view this thread and if he might have a the solution you're looking for.
A possible alternative is to use an iPhoto MobileMe gallery and embed that in your web site. You can select any of the gallery modes to be the mode you link to, grid, mosaic, carousel or slideshow. My example is linked to the mosaic mode. You also can isolate that gallery from any others that you might have so that visitors can only view that particular gallery. Changing the content of that gallery would be done thru iPhoto.

IWeb does not recognize new mobileme gallery pics
I recently tried to update an iWeb site with a new slideshow from my MobileMe Gallery. I tried the MobileMe widget in iWeb. In the drop down menu that comes up with that widget, the new site does not appear! All other sites are there, but not the new one. When I look in my Gallery, it is there. What could be happening? I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard. Could that be the problem?
i opened a thread here about a month ago on the same thing. I used mobileme chat, and they said it was an iweb problem and to call applecare. seems like this is a real bug. The way to get around it is easy though, see http://web.me.com/studiosphoenix/Altf4/Photo_Galleries.html
Those all used to be widgets, but are now just pointers to the mobileme content. All the widgets have broken - almost one by one - over the past several months on all my sites:( -
IWeb '08 - Web Widget - MobileMe Gallery
Hi,
Since the software update, I made an iMovie and published it to my Web Gallery. I went to put a copy of it in my iWeb by inserting a Web Widget from my MobileMe Gallery - but the new movie I made wasn't listed. All of my old movies were there but that one.
Any ideas?
Thanks so much!!
Jeanettefor movies I now upload my movies to google video on private setting, I then embed the code in the same way you would embed a google map or You Tube clip.
It seems to work better than importing the video into iweb
