Password problem with MobileMe Gallery

I'm having some trouble with configuring a password for my MobileMe gallery. My goal is to restrict access to two or three family members. I am logged into my MobileMe account, and have shared some photos to a gallery inside Aperture. They were successfully published. When I edit the settings of the album, there is an option to configure "Album viewable by". When I proceed to "Edit names and passwords", I add a couple of user names and passwords, and click OK. I'm taken back to the original configuration screen. When I try to edit the names again, just to confirm that they've been recorded, the user list is empty! It's as if the users I added weren't saved. Nor do they show up on the "viewable by" list. I only have the choice of "Everyone" and "Only Me". Is this yet-another-keychain-problem?

I checked out the procedure you described and can confirm what you say. The only names in my list are those created previously in iWeb galleries. These can be deleted in Aperture but not added to.

Problems with mobileme syncing ...

Hi everyone. I'm having massive problems with mobileme sync with my iphone, my macbook and MacPC G5. Essentially I want the iphone contacts and calender data to overwrite anything on laptop and pc but I keep getting message that contacts couldn't be synced due to inconsistent data. Despite me overriding it. I'm not sure how I go about confirming that the computers data is valid and actually whether I want to because its the iphone data I want. Then despite saying its synced calenders its not updating on my macbook or PC ... any suggestions gratefully received. Its doing my head in! Oh I'm on Leopard OS.

Hi Chris, Thanks for the advice, I haven't tried that yet. Will do so and pray that it will work. This however doesn't solve the problem of appointments I'm putting on my iphone not updating on PC and laptop - they do however update on mobile me cloud! Any advice greatly appreciated!

Sync project, album or smart album with MobileMe gallery?

Is there any way to sync a project, album or smart album with MobileMe gallery? It would be nice to have changes in one, reflect changes in the other. Thanks

make sure your inspector is visible on the left hand side press i to toggle on and off. You will see folders and projects that you have made in there. You can simply right click on a folder or project and select New from selection > MobileMe Album this will send all pictures in that album up to your mobileme Cloud for viewing. You can also select just some of the pictures in your main View screen again right click on them and the same as above. If you put more pictures into that folder etc on the mac you will see again in the inspector a icon and the text MobileMe gallery, to the right hand side of the text you will see a icon that looks like a wireless symbol just click on it to re-sync. You can also re-sync by going to prefs in aperture clicking on Mobileme and then click on the tab Check for new photos this works both ways.

IPhoto not syncing with MobileMe Gallery

I took a lot of pictures this past weekend and for the past three days have been trying to get them on my MobileMe Gallery. Every time I try to publish, it starts going - looks like normal - and then an error pops up saying something about not being able to access or publish to the server or something. It is dirivng me crazy! In some cases, half an event will publish and in some cases, no pictures in an event will publish at all. I am using the latest version of leopard, and the latest version of iPhoto. I have a full .mac / MobileMe account and it has plenty of available space. Can anyone help me? I have pictures of my friends' baby that she wants to see and I can't show her..

This fix was for another issue, emails, but has help iWeb users in getting published to MMe. A long shot but might work for you:

After waiting a day for the rolling restore to happen, I called AppleCare because Apple had sent an email saying my service was back, and it wasn't. I still could send and not receive using Mail.
Here is what fixed it. *Go to MobileMe (terrible name) in System Preferences, log out. Then enter a garbage name and password and try to log in. This apparently clears the MobileMe preferences. Then enter your real UserName and PassWord.* For me this was lights on.
I am left wondering how long ago I could have had email had I known this preference reset scheme.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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 or later), 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 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. 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.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Error message with MobileMe Gallery

Some time ago, I created a bunch of galleries with iPhoto and published them to MobileMe. Most of them were password protected because they were of children in my toddler's class. In the interim, my mac at work was stolen. As a result, I had to change all my online passwords, including my me.com account.
I was trying to change the public passwords to my MobileMe galleries in iPhoto and it turns out I can't access the published galleries from iPhoto.
When I click on a gallery, I get an error message that says, "Your MobileMe account information is not correct. The provided login or password is not valid." And then I am directed to "Open MobileMe Preferences." When I do, I get a "Account Details" button that takes me to my online MobileMe account. All y online information and my new password are up to date and I can access my photo galleries from my online Gallery page.
What gives? I need to change the public passwords. All help appreciated!

You may have to delete those galleries and create them anew.
You can try the following first:
1 - go to the System/MobileMe preference pane and log out of MMe.
2 - login with a bogus username and password like "test" and "test". This clears the caches.
3 - login with your correct username and password.
4 - launch iPhoto and try changing the galleries again.

"re-syncing" iphoto with mobileme gallery

Some friends of ours recently uploaded pictures to our mobile me gallery. How do I bring those new photos into an already established iphoto event?

When I select an event and publish it to MobileMe, the MobileMe gallery does not seem to stay linked to my original event. If I add photos to the event they do not sync up to the gallery, and if a user contributes photos it does not go back to my event
We may have a terminology problems here - events do not connect in any way to MobileMe and you can not directly add photos to events - importing photos into iPhoto will create a new event - it is not possible to import photos into an existing event
When you create a MobileMe gallery it appears as a web gallery in the source pane to the left and anything you add to that gallery in iPhoto will be synced to MobileMe based on how you have your syncing preferences set
I do not have any uploaded photos so have not used that feature but I believe that you just look in the web gallery in the source pane of iPhoto and drag the photos you want to the iPhoto library window or select them and create a new event form selection

Syncing events with MobileMe Gallery

When I select an event and publish it to MobileMe, the MobileMe gallery does not seem to stay linked to my original event. If I add photos to the event they do not sync up to the gallery, and if a user contributes photos it does not go back to my event. It appears that this is intentional, so then what do I do about it? I am not sure which photos are added and/or how to import them back into my original event and I am unsure what to add from my original event into the gallery. If I try to keep the two in sync manually it will be very tedious and error prone. Any ideas?

Username/ password problems with apps

I have had my iphone for 6 months and never had any problems downloading apps until the past couple of days. Now when I go to install an app it is asking me for my username and password and not recognising the information I'm putting in- keeps referring me back to itunes. Any ideas what's going on?

annarose wrote:
Thank you for the reply. I have done that and I've confirmed that the information is right. I downloaded 3.0 a few days ago. Do you think that's the issue? Does anyone know of other similar problems with 3.0?
Considering that 3.0 has not yet been officially released by Apple, I'd certain think that is what has caused (or at least contributed) to your probems.

Password problem with Word since 10.6.4 installed

Using mac os x 10.6.4 and office mac 2004 updated (student).
I have a word document that I have been using for 5 years with a password. Now it cannot be opened because 'this document is protected by a password with a number (chiffrement) method that is not available in this country'. I have the password, but no access to enter it.
Same problem with back-ups of this document on other supports!!!!!
Any hint anybody?
Jean

Ma femme m'a suggéré d'essayer d'ouvrir le document sur le vieil iBook. Ça a fonctionné. J'ai entré le mot de passe, le docu s'est ouvert. J'ai enlevé le mot de passe et je suis revenu ici sur le MacBook et tout fonctionne. J'ai réinstallé le même mot de passe et ça fonctionne.
J'ai donc récupéré mon document avec mes 5 années de textes. Youppi!
Merci

Password problem with 10.4.11 (Eudora 6.2.4)

I'm relatively new to OSX, slowly learning it, and migrating from a beige G3/OS9. I used Eudora 6.1 on the old Mac, installed 6.2.4 on this iBook, and got it configured to work. I discovered a problem with how I installed Tiger, and it necessitated a full re-install of everything.
Now, when I try to send email from Eudora, the system asks for my password. Twice. It asks for a password for my email account. Then the system asks for my keychain password ("login", login.keychain, Eudora). It responds with an "invalid password" error message.
I'm stuck, and don't understand OSX enough to solve this. I can't find any way of uncovering some other password log within OSX, or a thread on this discussion about this.
I'd like to solve this today, keeping Eudora for all my old email archives, then switch tomorrow to Mac Mail moving forward. Thanks for your help!

Well, it's not getting through to Comcast at all, either Username,
Password, Port number, or SMTP settings or such...
Right.
The settings should be the same as Mail or Outlook, or any other
Mail App... just different places & terminology,
Perhaps they should, but the "places & terminology" might be an easy translation for a Net technical wizard, not for me.
I have used Eudora, as I described, in OS9 for MANY years, and the settings were fine. I use Comcast ONLY for sending email and access to the Net, I have my own mail server, so Comcast's FAQs are virtually no help, since they don't apply to the places and terminology of Eudora 6.2.4.
I'm using pretty much the same settings as I used on my OS9 system (Eudora 6.1). The problem remains, as I originally described, to be some barrier related to password, and limited to my iBook. I suspect OSX, not Eudora, as the password dialog is similar to other password dialog boxes OSX is repetitively throwing at me. Also, I doubt that Eudora is giving me the error and "too many attempts" dialog boxes: Eudora would probably just attempt to send the email, and let my mail server refuse the password, which it's obviously never getting the chance to do.
The problem is with the keychain login, which I have to believe is an OSX problem, not Eudora.
I just tried to set up Mac Mail, and since Comcast doesn't post an FAQ for the version I have, I spent an hour talking to two different support people, trying to get the setup properly done. As I was completing the setup, Mail tried to check the setup with Comcast's outgoing mail server, and it gave me the SAME keychain password dialog box as I have gotten when trying to use Eudora, and the same failed password error message.
(The one difference is that Mail confirmed the incoming mail server username and password.)
Since I can't find any Keychain related to what I'm doing, I've tried to check the only others I see. I tried to view the Safari Autofill keychain/password, and it asks me for a login.keychain password. I gave the ONLY password I've ever used on this computer, and it gives me the error message again. Like I said, there's a problem with OSX, and I can't figure out how to get past a password that I obviously didn't create, or may not even exist on my computer!
I don't know what else to tell here....

Password problem with Time Capsule - Time Machine

Recently got a new 500 Gb Time Capsule. I am trying to set up Time Machine to back up on the Time Capsule. When I select the Time Capsule as the device to back up to, I am asked for a user name and password. When I enter what I am pretty sure are my username and password, and try everything else I can think of, I get an error saying that the user name or password are invalid. Any suggestions? Can I reset my user name and password on the device?

Both the Time Capsule (TC) and AirPort Disks (USB hard drives connected to 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Stations), can be configured for any one of the following means to provide access:
o With Base Station Password (default): With this method a single password is used to secure the base station’s settings and any attached hard disks.
o With a Disk Password: This method employs a password that controls access to all disks; this password is distinct from the base-station password.
o With Accounts: On partitions formatted with HFS+, you can set up individual user names and passwords, each with different levels of access; these accounts are distinct from any Mac OS X or
Windows user accounts.
If you elected not to set up a specific password, it will default to the TC's base station administrator credentials ... which should be public with no password. However, if this doesn't work, you can reset the TC's password by performing a "hard" reset.

Problem with Web Gallery (firewall issue??)

I have the following problem:
When I upload a webgallery from my office, everything works fine.
When I try the same thing from home, it doesn't work. I get a can't connect to .mac error.
What I also found out:
Looking at my .mac preferences from the system preferences panel works at home and at the office.
Looking at the web gallery tab under preferences in iphoto works ONLY at the office. At home I get a time out eventually.
Anyone have an idea? I do have a rather transparent network on both places.
Thanks!
Martin

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, from your User/Library/Preferences folder on you home computer. Then try again.
Do you Twango?

Username and password problems with CS3

I have Dreamweaver CS3 Version 9.0 Build 3481
When I close Dreamweaver and reopen it I lose any usernames
and passwords for FTP.
How do I solve this? The 8.0.2. Updater does not work for my
version.
Thank you

Adobe got back to me and gave me some info I'll share that
might help others who have this problem. YES the fix did work for
me, I'm running Dreamweaver 9 or the CS3 version and was losing
user name and password each time I re-opened the program.
You can find the fix at
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=3491671c&sliceId=2
Basically it's a registry fix, appears when you have Explorer
7.0 installed.
Warning: Editing the Windows Registry incorrectly can cause
serious problems that may require reinstalling your operating
system. Adobe does not guarantee that problems caused by editing
the registry incorrectly can be resolved. Edit the registry at your
own risk.
1. Launch the Registry Editor by clicking the Start button,
choose Run, then type "regedit". In the Registry Editor, navigate
to this folder:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
Explorer\User Shell Folders\
2. See if there is a key called AppData.
# Backup the Users Shell Folders registry branch as follows:
1. Right-click the Users Shell Folders folder and select
"Export".
2. In the "Export range" section, choose "Selected branch".
3. Save the .reg file to the desktop.
4. If problems occur after editing the registry,
double-clicking the .reg file will re-install that registry branch.
# If the AppData key is missing, then perform the following
steps. If the AppData key exists, then skip to Step 5.
1. On the right side of the Registry Editor explorer pane,
right-click in a blank area anywhere under the last key in the
list. You should get a context menu that says "New" with a flyout
menu.
2. In the flyout menu, select "Expandable String Value" and
name the new key AppData.
# Right-click the new AppData key (or the existing one if it
was already there), select Modify, and enter the following in the
Value Data field: %USERPROFILE%\Application Data. If the values for
the other keys in your User Shell Folders directory don't start
with %USERPROFILE%, then use the value that your other keys use.
For example, if your Local Settings key has a value of u:\Local
Settings, then try usingu:\Application Data.
# Open Dreamweaver, re-enter the FTP login information for
one of your sites, and see if the FTP login is now saved when you
close and re-open Dreamweaver.
Worked for me.
Thanks Adobe

SMTP password problem with WRT54G or WRV200

I have a problem sending email in that the SMTP password cannot be successfully sent. I have found that if the router is rebooted, email can be sent for maybe 10 minutes. After that time, the password is refused no matter how many times it is tried. I have tried Thunderbird and Apple Mail as the email client and they both behave the same. I have tried 2 different routers, the WRT54G and WRV200 and they behave the same. I have connected my computer directly to the modem and email can be sent successfully all the time. I am on SBC/AT&T DSL service - it's Yahoo email servers. My computer is a Mac running OX X v10.5 (Leopard). I normally use Thunderbird as my email client and it has worked for some time.

ISP is SBC/AT&T DSL. The email servers are on Yahoo. I am not sure of the question about private/public address of the router. The IP address of the router is assigned by SBC/AT&T - I guess that's public. The firmware of the WRT54G is the latest from your website. I don't really have a Windows computer to give a verdict on whether it happens there. I have tried using the Apple Mail application and it behaves in the same way as the Thunderbird client. Email sending is normal for about 10 minutes after booting the router and then after 10 minutes the sending of the SMTP password fails. Rebooting the router will get you another 10 minutes of successful email sending. As I described bnefore: If I take the router out of my network and connect my computer directly to the DSL modem, then email can be sent at any time. The computer is logging onto the SBC/AT&T network PPPoE with no router involved. Of course, I do not have to change any settings in my email client for this experiment. This proves to me that the email client is working and configured correctly. Keep in mind that this email client has been working correctly for some time (years) in this configuration. I am always able to receive email from the POP server. Message Edited by darowa on 03-16-2008 02:28 PM
