MobileMe Gallery not syncing

I have been trying for the last couple of days to upload a couple of new MobilMe Galleries to my account. The first 4 galleries worked fine, then a few days later I cannot get anything to publish. Aperture appears to be making progress as the "clock" progress indicator and the "Show Activity" screen show progress from 0% to 100%. Then the clock turns into spinning arrows and the Show Activity screen says it is uploading optimized images. This goes on for awhile and then I get a message that "the sync failed, could not contact the publish.me.com server." During my most recent attempt, this occurred after 50 of 75 images had been uploaded according to the Show Activity screen. I logged into my account and it shows I have used 140MB of 20GB of storage, so I appear to have plenty of room.
Any ideas what could be going wrong?

Likely it's not you. Many others, including myself, have experienced odd behaviour, intermittent and often incorrect syncing, lost data, etc.
Apple has just issued yet another extension of the months of service for a total of 90 days added on. They're buying time to fix serious glitches.
Your activity appears to demonstrate an inability to get accurate syncing from Apple's servers. You may need to be patient and keep trying as MobileMe (slowly) gets the fixes it needs.

  • Mobileme gallery not syncing with iPhoto

    Hello everyone
    I have a Mobileme album onto which I upload photos and videos using my iPhone 4, my Macbook or my iMac.
    For some reason, many of the photos on Mobileme show as grey icons in the corresponding iPhoto album, and if I double-click on them, nothing happens. As if they did not exist.
    Any help will be very much appreciated. Regards
    Jose

  • MobileMe Gallery - not respecting Aperture security setup

    I have around 5 albums on my MobileMe gallery which are synchronised with Aperture (in fact I create them in Aperture).
    Of these albums, 2 are password-protected and 3 are public. I haven't created an album in a while (probably since Aperture 2!) and I have been trying to create a public (i.e. no password) album to no avail.
    Basically, although in Aperture, the settings for the album are listed as "public" access, whenever I try to access the album on the web through MobileMe Gallery, I am asked for a password. I have tried re-syncing, tried creating multiple new albums - whatever I do I am always asked for a password and the thumbnails of these newly created albums have the padlock icon denoting that they are password protected.
    Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
    thanks in advance

    Hi there
    I tested with an empty library and discovered that it was definitely an issue linked to 1 particular library (rather than the app as a whole).
    Thanks for linking to the Troubleshooting page for Aperture - although I had previously trashed preferences and selected "Repair Database" this did not solve the problem so I tried the "Rebuild" option which always scares me but it did work this time (I made sure I had a Vault backup just in case)!
    Thanks and hopefully this thread may benefit other Aperture users in future!

  • MobileMe Gallery not working in iWeb

    Trying to create a iWeb page and wanna use mobileme gallery widget but the widget does not work. It tells me to add gallery and movies to the widget and thats already done. What do I do???

    I pasted the video from vimeo in a hotmail snippet.
    Do I still need to paste this in another hotmail snippet on the same blog page? How do you know what number to replace in 123456?

  • Mobileme upgrade - not syncing calenders

    Hi!
    Since Apple made some changes earlier this year in Mobileme (or iCal) my calendars in my Macbook and iPhone are not syncing anylonger.
    I tried to upgrade it via the link provided in the e-mail from Mobileme but I never succeeded. What do I do? My calendars are not syncing for a couple of months now and it´s really making my life harder...
    Appreciate all help! (I´m not a very high-tech person so please explain like I was a child...)
    Thanks!

    When Apple made the announcement to upgrade to OS 10.6 otherwise calendars would not sync, I did it. I've upgraded all of my computers to Snow Leopard and I am experiencing a total disconnect in service since that day. None of my calendars will sync properly. I've tried resending invitations, creating a new calendar to share and all to no avail. And on top of that, every time I've sent invitations, the app crashes!!
    Please don't tell me that I have to upgrade to Lion 2 months after I was told to upgrade to Snow Leopard. I rather go back to microsoft entourage.
    I'm really mad about this. I just said microsoft.

  • Creating a MobileMe gallery & NOT sharing with everyone?

    Hi, how do I restrict visibility of a MobileMe gallery to just a few users?
    Prior to uploading there is a menu where it is possible among other setting to choose to share with 'everyone', 'just me' or 'selected people'.
    Ok the issue is with the selected people list.
    Do I understand this right that I have to give a 'name' & a password for every person I want to share the gallery with?
    Ok I have put in 3 names and given them a password. But then it goes back to the main pre-loading options and I can see all the names in the drop down along with 'everyone', 'just me' etc... so how do I select those 3 ??? It looks as if I can only select one name. Do I have to do this one at a time or do I give all the people I want to share with a single name ? Is that how it is supposed to work ?
    Thxs,
    me

    While viewing the MMe gallery in iPhoto click on the Settings button to bring up the Settings pane. Then click on the Advanced button to show additional options.
    There you have two options:
    1 - select Hide Album on my Gallery Page
    Click to view full size
    Which will keep viewers who are viewing your other galleries from visiting the hidden gallery. You can then just give the URL for that gallery to those who you want to view. But they could give it to others.
    2 - select Edit Names and Passwords in the Album Viewable by drop down menu and create a single username and password for those selected to view it or a username and password for each individual.
    Click to view full size

  • Tell a friend MobileMe gallery not working in Aperture 3

    I am trying to share my gallery photos - tell a friend is not working this week - it has worked fine for the past 3 years - what's up?

    Steve,
    is that the same for all your galleries, or only one particular gallery?
    Do your galleries sync o.k. with Mobile Me? Do you see the sync sign below?
    Try, if you can "Tell a friend" from the "Web Interface" - click the MobileMe button and select "Visit ...", from your gallery it is also possible to invite people to view. If that also does not work, something probably is wrong with your Mobile Me settings in the System Preferences.
    If the web interface works, but not the Aperture interface,check the Aperture Preferences -> Web.
    It should show your account as enabled.
    Regards

  • MobileMe gallery switched syncing from Aperture to iPhoto

    I had an album on Aperture that synced with MobileMe. Friends added photos via email and via web upload, and all was good. Until one day when the Aperture web album was gone. MobileMe album was still there, but it says (under Info) that it's syncing with iPhoto (which I haven't used in 4 years). So I load up iPhoto and, voila, it starts syncing.
    How can I tell MobileMe to sync with original Aperture? This is a real pain.

    Actually this is an Aperture issue since this problem only occurs when I export and then import files from aperture into iphoto 08. When I import files off a disk or external compact flash disk directly into iphoto 08 and then upload to the web gallery they retain the same file size yet the files that were brought over from aperture somehow loose there size once they go to the gallery. Interstingly enough the file size of versions brought over from aperture appear to remain in tact in iphoto but drop off once on the web???? Does this have anything to do with Versions as reference files...but if so how does one retain the chaanges made in aperture to a master file and export it to iphoto 08 and then on to the web and still retain some semblance of file size??? Note I already did enable downloading prior to uploading to the gallery.. HELP!

  • MobileMe gallery not showing in iweb

    Hi,
    I seem to be having problems with the mobileme widget in Iweb.
    I created a new album for my web page and when i pull the widget into iweb - it is only recognising one album. I have logged in and out of mobile me...iweb...tried the various suggestions from other forums and nothing seems to work...very frustrating.
    I went onto the mobileme apple support where i thought there was 24/7 live support - but after trawling through different pages - couldn't find the option that would allow for live chat...not sure if that has been withdrawn now...but have not been impressed by how difficult it has been to get help by apple on this.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
    Regards,
    jason

    This is a page with the code.
    http://www.wyodor.net/Scripts/MeGallery.html
    Look at the source to see how it's done.
    I embed the page with an iframe in my frontpage.
    BTW, isn't it funny Apple uses Flash :
    <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"

    Edit: I looked at the code you use. You should use you MobileMeID = toad.hall

  • Single MobileMe Event not syncing to iCal on my Mac

    I'm pretty sure this is not the first time I've had this problem but it has arisen again.
    I have a single event, which I created on either my iPad or my iPhone last Friday. This event has synced to the other device (iPhone or iPad) and to MobileMe (http://www.me.com/calendar). However, it is not showing up in iCal on my MacBook Pro.
    On my MBP, I deleted the MobileMe (CalDAV) calendar from iCal and then recreated the account.  The missing calendar event is still missing though all the other evens appear to be there!
    If I edit the event on my iPad, it still does not show up on my MBP though the other devices get the update (e.g. adding a Location).
    If I create a new calendar event on my iPad, the new event does show up but the missing event remains missing.
    I'm running OS X 10.7.1 (Lion).
    Any suggestions on
    why this is happening,
    how to fix it (other than just deleting and recreating), and
    more importantly, how to prevent it from happening in the future?
    Thanks!

    Here's a fix:
    1. Open iCal and Export all your calendars to .ICS files (example, home.ics, birthdays.ics, etc.), save it on your desktop. Quit iCal.
    2. Delete the folder User/Library/Calendars and all contents inside
    3. Open iCal, import all your exported .ICS from above.
    4. Sync your iPhone.
    Fixed it on 2 iPhones that have iCal sync issues with Leopard 10.5.1!

  • Switch to iCloud had left me with calendars that still are using MobileMe and not syncing

    In switching from MobileMe to iCloud I seem to have lost the wireless sync with iPhone, iPad
    And PC. I'd also like to easily get rid on duplications in the different calendars without losing items.
    How should I proceed?

    Someone, please help??!!  Threads speculating about the new iphone are like 50 pages long, but I have a real problem and need help and can't get a single answer??

  • MobileMe gallery not working ATV2?

    I can access my MM galleries via web, mac, iPad, iPhone, etc without issue and from my old appletv. ATV2 accepts my MM user name under the Internet / MobileMe. I get one of the following every time, it either gives me the spinning with no end looking for something OR more commonly is tells me I have no galleries, which I have quite a few.
    I have tried deleting the profile and putting it back. Ive tried resetting all settings. I finally did a complete restore - no change. I'm about to take it back for an exchange. Any other ideas?

    Ok, odd. I can add my wife's account at is a sub account of my master. I can add my father in laws account that is not associated. I can load friends MM accounts and see galleries but not mine. Now mine are all password protected and always have been. This was not an issue with the old model appletv. It would just ask for the password but would show that i have galleries. Right now, nothing.

  • Calendar in MobileMe is not syncing with iphone

    A couple of days ago my iphone stopped syncing its calendar with MobileMe. I followed the suggested steps to fix the problem (provided by Apple). I turned sync on and off, reinstalled the iphone software with and without the backup, turned phone on/off between the steps, waited for an hour each time - but nothing. The calendar view is completely empty.
    Sync of calendar to my iMac, iPad and MacBook Air work excellent.
    If I connect the iphone with my MB Air by USB then sync works fine but this solution is less then optimal since I use all four units seperately and thus need to sync only with MobileMe.
    Please give a clue of what I can do to resolve the problem!

    The problem solved tiself. I added my Google calendar by Exchange, that didn't work either. The next time I activated the mobile me calendar it worked.

  • Syncing mobileme Gallery over one account on 2 Macs

    Hi,
    I use 1 mobileme account to sync the adressbooks of my two Macs, that works fine.
    On the ohter hand, Iphoto doesn't want to sync the moblieme gallery's on both macs.
    In fact, Iphoto opens the mobileme Gallery on both of my Macs. but on one Mac it only shows the photos i published using that specific Mac, the rest of the photos, published with the other Mac show as blanks.
    On the other hand when my friends upload photos using the Webbrowser, the photos show up on both Macs.
    Does anybody have a suggestion, how to make this work ?

    Hello Mordred,
    I have the same issue on my computers. It seems that MobileMe will not sync images to libraries that both came from the same location. So if you copied your iphoto library from computer A to computer B. and then added images to a gallery on computer A, those images will not show up on computer B. MobileMe seems to be tracking the library and will not sync the same content to a library it thinks is the "same".
    Suggestions:
    1.) Let Apple know that you are having this issue. iPhoto Menu > Provide iPhoto Feedback
    2.) Rebuild one of the libraries that are affected. Follow the "Performing a "Manual rebuild"" section of http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2638. I did this on one of my systems and now it works fine. Keep in mind following these steps will only give you your pictures in the library in question. Albums, Books, Faces, etc. will not be there and will have to be re-created.
    Hope that helps.

  • Aperture and MobileMe Gallery

    I have a website which was created in Aperture and uploaded to my MobileMe Gallery some time ago. Since upgrading to version 3 it seems that the gallery has lost its link with the Aperture Album. The MobileMe gallery shows 'Sync with Aperture' in the info window but the Gallery does not show in the MobileMe Gallery Section of Aperture.
    Is there anyway I can re-link the Gallery and Aperture manually?
    Thanks,
    Chris
