New .Mac account no Web Gallery

I just got a .Mac account and have been looking at the help videos regarding iPhoto, .Mac, and Web Gallery.
The help video says there will be a Web Gallery icon in the bottom right of iPhoto beside Mail, Print and Order Prints. Well, it is not there. Does anyone know how to get the icon back or there?

Denny:
Go to the View->Show in Toolbar menu item and select Web Gallery and any other features you want to show in the toolbar.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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 08 libraries 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.

Can you move mail folders from an old .Mac account to a new .Mac account?

I hope someone can help since even the Mac Genius at the Apple Store nor Applecare seem to know.
Due to massive spam to my .Mac account & it's alias accounts I opened a new .Mac account before my old account died. However, without any answers my old account died last night. Which probably doesn't help.
1. Is there a way to move my mail folders in 'mail app' from my old .Mac account over to the new .Mac account?
2. In 'mail app' > preferences > add account > the pop-up box for the new account automatically shows my old .Mac account information, full name, description, user name. But, if I replace that information with my new .Mac account name and info no one can tell me if that automatically delete any mail folders/information from the old account.
Basically I'm lost because no one seems to understand how the system works, not even the Mac Genius.
Any ideas?

You're welcome.
Second, because I couldn't get any real answers somehow last night I managed to drag & drop my 'mail app' mail folders onto my desktop. At least I have it there, LOL.
What do you mean by Mail.app mail folders? There is a single Mail folder which contains all Mail.app data (account folders, mailboxes, rules, junk mail learned settings, etc.) except for the Mail.app preference file which stores all account information and is stored in your Preferences folder.
Did you place a copy of the entire Mail folder located at Home > Library > Mail on the Desktop?
The question is can that mail folder from the desktop be placed into mail with the new .Mac account? Some of the old folders were from "on my mac" and some with .Mac & the server so not really sure what moved to the desktop. But, at least it's something.
The answer to this question is no. User created "On My Mac" location mailboxes are stored locally on the hard drive and are not associated with any account. User created "On My Mac" location mailboxes are located in the Mailboxes folder at Home > Library > Mail > Mailboxes are are not deleted when deleting an account or changing existing account information with Mail.
When creating an account with Mail, an account named folder is created within the Mail folder at Home > Library > Mail named by the user name and incoming mail server for the account. The associated account mailboxes are located within the account named folder with the exception of locally stored mailboxes for a .Mac type account or IMAP account. Locally stored mailboxes for a .Mac type account or IMAP account are located in the Mailboxes folder at Home > Library > Mail > Mailboxes. This would be the account's Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk mailboxes if these mailboxes are not stored on the server which is available under the Mailboxes Behaviors tab for the account preferences.
Since a .Mac type account is really an IMAP account and behaves in the same way, you have the option to store Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk messages locally on the hard drive with Mail for the account preferences.
Were you accessing your old .Mac account as a .Mac type account with Mail and if so, what were/are your settings under the Mailbox Behaviors tab for the account preferences for Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk messages - storing these messages on the server or locally on the hard drive?
Since a .Mac type account with Mail is really an IMAP account and behaves in the same way, messages in the account's Inbox mailbox remain on the server and since Apple/.Mac has now cancelled this account, messages in the account's Inbox mailbox on the server have been deleted.
When you open the 'mail app' >file>add account> the pop-up box automatically has the information in there from the expired .Mac account.
Is your old .Mac account information still available at System Preferences > .Mac under the Account tab?
If so, this is where the Mail.app is getting the old .Mac account information which needs to be changed to your new .Mac account information.
If you placed a copy of the Mail folder on the Desktop for backup purposes, you can can create your new .Mac account with Mail which should not change or affect your existing .Mac account with Mail but you cannot "merge" account named folders and mailboxes between two accounts.
You can use the Import Mailboxes feature to import the old account's Sent mailbox if you did not store Sent messages on the server for your old .Mac account preferences.

New .mac account: help!

Hello,
When I first got my computer, my sister (unbeknownst to me) set up an account on Apple mail and promptly forgot the password. I thought I deleted the account, but now, when I'm trying to make an new .mac account, I'm required to log in with the username and password she came up with. How do I fix this (either by recovering the lost password or by making a new account altogether)? Thanks!

Hello Jenny.
If all you did was deleting the account from Mail, the .Mac account settings are probably still in System Preferences > .Mac, the passwords still in the keychain, and the outgoing server settings still in the server list that appears when choosing Edit Server List from the Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Account Information > Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) popup menu...

Moving website to a new .Mac account

I have made a website for my husband using iWeb and my .Mac account - very pleased with it etc, but have changed today to Family membership of .Mac. Is there anyway I can move his website to his own sub-account to free up my account for my own website?
I have tried copying the Sites folder from my iDisk to his, but I don't have enough priviledges??!!
Just a G4 iBook now... Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Hi weaseldropping,
I have never played with the family pack, but here is my theory!
Set up a Second User account on our Mac for your husband (If you haven't done so already) and copy this file to the same location in the second user:
User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites
The domain file contains your whole website
If you have just created the second user account, launch iWeb before moving this file, this will create the /iWeb folder and a domain file. You can delete the new domain file and drop in the domain file from your original user.
Once you have got a domain file in place, you need to set up his .mac details in Applications/System Preferences > .Mac.
Now when he publishes from the second user it should publish to his area on the iDisk.
There is some general info here: http://web.mac.com/will.englefield/iWeb/WillG4PB/2Sites1Mac.html

New family pack .mac - how to republish iweb parts to new .mac accounts

Ok, that subject isn't very clear so I'll try here: Tonight I upgraded my .mac to a Family Pack. I have split my previous iWeb 'domain.sites2' into individual sites that I have renamed. One needs to go to my hubby's computer under his .mac account and I want to put some of the others under the other newly created .mac accounts on my own computer. How to I tell each of the new 'xxx.site2' to be published under the correct .mac?
Thanks!

do you know how the public folders work? Am I missing something in setup?
You have to click on your Harddisk (Macintosh HD) then go to "Users" and there you will find the different users accounts and you are able to view the content of the public folders (not going to HD and then Home where you put stuff in).
But public folders permissions are read-only. To move things from one user account to the other you should use "Shared Folder" instead of the "Public Folder". Go to your HD, "Users", and drop the stuff into Shared. Shared has Read & Write permissions.

Unable to open iTunes account after new .Mac account is opened

I recently opened a .Mac account and it appears that Apple totally changed all my previous accounts. All of my accounts where changed even iTunes. Now I can't get into my iTunes account with the old name nor the new .Mac either. I have a balance to my iTunes account and no way to find it. Does anyone have any idea how to send an e-mail to iTunes or figure a way to find my old account?

IPhoto doesn't bring in new uploaded photos from web gallery

Published album to web gallery; had folks upload pics to that one; auto-sync into iPhoto worked fine. Updated OSX to 10.5.3 yesterday; had more pics uploaded from folks to the web gallery; iPhoto is not syncing anymore. Running latest upgrades. Suggestions (besides rolling back the upgrade)?

Well, tried Disk Utility to repair permissions after the upgrade and that solved the issue somehow even though it didn't find issues related to iPhoto.

How do i make a second phone have a new mac account and still retain its songs?

I have an iphone and my 2 kids and wife all had ipods. They all used my account to get songs on their devices. Now they all have iPhone 4's. The problem is, if they use my MAC account on their phones, they get to keep their tunes, but now I get their reminder and contacts and visa versa. Is there any way for them to create their own account but still keep the music they purchased?

No, you can't transfer purchases from one Apple ID to another.
However, they can use the 'group' Apple ID in Settings > iTunes & App Stores, but use their 'unique' Apple ID for iMessage, iCloud & Facetime.
This will allow everyone to use the same content for iTunes & App purhcases, but keep their contacts, calendars, etc separate.

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.

IPhoto 7.1 won't post new web gallery

Since I upgraded to iPhoto 7.1, it won't post toany new web galleries. Here's exactly what happens:
After I create the new web gallery in iPhoto it shows the spinning icon next to it as if its succesfully uploading it but it stops in seconds and nothing happens. If I try to click the refresh button next to the gallery it disappears from the list. Help?
I find this to be unacceptable as I payed good money for both .mac and iPhoto.

Wow! I hope Apple is reading this. Just tried to post a new album to my web gallery, which worked perfectly yesterday before the upgrade that I installed this morning, and now the web gallery button no longer works. It seemed to work until I looked at my previously posted gallery. On the web it showed a greater number of photos installed but only the photos from my earlier gallery were there. When I looked back at iPhoto, the web gallery icon at the bottom had disappeared. So I closed and opened iPhoto again, the gallery icon re-appeared. Tried to upload my album again. Stalled. The icon disappeared. BUGGY!!!! How do I remove the upgrade?

Aperture Web Gallery Uploaded to .Mac Site, can't find

Well, I uploaded my web gallery that I made in Aperture by clicking on the upload to web gallery button in aperture. It loaded them to .Mac but it's not like iPhoto 08 where you can easily find the gallery and email it to friends or change anything. It just dumps them online, and gives a url, but it doesn't link to your .Mac page under web gallery and so if you don't copy and paste the url that aperture gives you after you upload, then your screwed. I know the url, but my question is:
How do I put up a web gallery like they do in iPhoto 08, where I can just click a button and email the gallery, or email it, change the page, and all that neat stuff that Steve Jobs did in his speech? Do I have to get iPhoto in order to do all of that?
Thanks,
Lainey

Yes, it's an iPhoto '08 feature that they were demo'ing, not an Aperture feature.
(See the many other threads here on this very issue!)

How to use iPhoto web gallery with iWeb & personal domain name

So, another question about iWeb 08:
I've set up my site to use a personal domain name, like www.mypersonaldomain.com. I've configured everything with my DNS settings so that it actually points to my iWeb site, and I'm happy about that.
However, I've imported a few iPhoto '08 web galleries into my site, but when I browse to them by going to www.mypersonaldomain.com and clicking on the link for my gallery, it goes to a URL that actually shows my .mac account, i.e. gallery.mac.com/sockdaddy/gallery1/photo.jpg
Is there any way to have the web galleries that I'm using become a more transparent part of my iWeb site, and use my personal domain?

I've never done this on .Mac but I do use this on my server. I don't see why it wouldn't work.
In iPhoto select your web gallery and in the "file" menu select "export" and then "Web Page".
Select your options and click "Export" to the desktop.
There are now 4 folders and an index.html file.
Change the name of the index file to whatever you want to call the page e.g WebGallery.html
Now go to Finder/Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites and open your website folder.
Drag and drop the 4 folders and the html file from your desktop into this.
Create a link to this from your website in the "link" inspector and choose "external page".
The URL for the link will be the same as any other page on your site except WebGallery is substituted for the page name.
If you check the "open link in new window" you won't have to worry about the fact that you don't have a link back to your site from the WebGallery page.

How do I convert my existing iTunes account to a .mac account?

I am trying to convert my existing iTunes account which uses an Earthlink address. The following is the INSTRUCTIONS from the Apple web site on how to do this.
"I just signed up for .Mac. How do I convert my existing iTunes account to
my new .Mac account?
We'll be happy to convert your account for you. Please provide your old account name, your new .Mac account name and your billing address in your email. We will also need your explicit permission to reset your password to complete the conversion."
This is the URL where I found those INSTRUCTIONS:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/musicstore/email/
I FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS ABOVE!
I am now on my fifth exchange of emails with iTunes support.
HAS ANYBODY SUCCESSFULLY EXECUTED THESE INSTRUCTIONS? I don't want to lose the ability to play my existing purchased music, but I want to close down Earthlink as my ISP.

On any page in the iTunes Store, click the flag icon at the lower right. This brings up a page saying "Choose your country or region." Click Canada.
Before you can buy anything, you will need to enter your Canadian credit card.
