Password Protect Albums

Hi There,
I own and operate a web design firm and have looked all over, and can't seem to find an answer to this.
On Photoshop.com - other than an Adobe ID - Is there a way to put a password lock to a photo album ?
My idea is this:
A number of photos appear in a album, which are accessible online via your photoshop.com website. Is there a way to make that album password-locked, so people can only view the album if they have a password ?
I hope there is a way that with one password they can view the album - different to having an adobe id which isn't a requirement.
Look forward to any thoughts you can provided - much appreciated...

No idea. As far as I know we can share the album privately, in that case the link must be present with the person to view the photos.

Is it possible to password protect albums in iPhoto

Hi all,
some of the albums I have in iPhoto contain material not suitable to everyone having acces to my Mac. So I would like to password protect certain albums. Is that possible?

Ehhh indeed, there are a couple of very easy ways to do this:
Have two accounts: one for you and one for everybody else.
Or
Put these files on an encrypted disk image.
Look at it from a programmer's point of view: you want everything to be open and accessible except for the bits you don't want open and accessible. These bits that are not to be shared are arbitrary and defined by you alone and based on content. iPhoto may know that Jpeg is a photograph, but has no way of knowing what it's a photo of. The only way to protect things is to change their format. So, you encrypt the file. iPhoto doesn’t offer encryption - it's a $15 photo app and does not claim to offer everything - so you use the two options the OS offers for doing the same job.

Can the default image for a password protected album be changed?

Apologies in advance if this question has already been asked. I have created a number of photo albums to my web gallery and password protected each of them. When I navigate to the main web gallery page however, each of the galleries appear as a black and white graphic of two photos. Is there any way to change this to something else?
Also, is there a way to send out an invitation to view the gallery as a whole and therefore let people view the albums they want? I just really love the invite card that is created when the album is published from iPhoto.
Many thanks in advance.

Password protection/ disabling picture downloading

I am constructing a website fro my photography business and I would like to offer my clients online proofs in the form of password protected album pages. I understand from a previous post that I can create an external password protected site on iweb and link it to my overall website. As far as password protection goes, can I assign specific passwords to specific people or would I have to create multiple external websites to have multiple client passwords?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. What I think would work would be to create a site for each customer and then password protect that site with the customer's name and some password. The individual sites can be linked to from your primary site with text links and/or a photo that is linked to the customers page/site.
As far as using multiple sites and keeping them manageable I use iWebSites to manage multiple sites which I use as "pages" in my primary site. It lets me create multiple sites and multiple domain files.
If you have multiple sites in one domain file here's the workflow I used to split them into individual site files with iWebSites. Be sure to make a backup copy of your original Domain.sites files before starting the splitting process.
This lets me edit several sites and only republish the one I want.

Album's hide feature must be password protected

Hide feature of album must be password protected.. As currently via navigating to the hidden folder its very easy to retrieve & view the hidden images..
or either the hidden folder be password protected.. To view the content the user must enter the password first..

It wasn't designed for a 2nd user to start going through user files and enabling show hidden files and folders - It was designed and brought to us as a feature by request - The reason is members or owners didn't want to show friends etc photo's and then accidently show photo's that are private - If you really want to hide and password protect folders then use a Pc with winrar and password protect them that way

HT4113 Can I password protect a photo album on my iPhone 5s?

I want to password protect a photo album, can I do this?

You can only put a passcode on your phone, not the Photos app.
There might be an app you can buy that allows for a password - try taking a look in the App Store

Password protect iPhoto albums when viewed on an iPad

Hello - I use my iPad to showcase work to a range of clients. Curiosity is a wonderful aspect of human nature, but we know what it did to the cat!
Is it possible to create a password protection for albums so I can happily handover my iPad to clients for them to browse their visuals/photoshoots etc. without them being able to open albums with creatives in for other clients.
Thanks
Martin

One for the iPad forum, I think.

How can I lock / password protect an album?

I have iPhoto 6. Is there any way I can lock / secure / password protect
1. film rolls within the Library
2. Specific Albums and Slideshows I have created?
Thank you,
HDP

HDP,
There is a Mac 101 tutorial that may help. Try this page first, then scroll down to where it says "About User Accounts". A bit below that is "Creating User Accounts". It may or may not be useful for you, as I think the tutorials are based on Tiger, and your specs show you on Panther. But take a look, since it might be close enough to help you figure it out on your Mac.

Is there any way to password protect a project in aperture 3?

I have certain projects that I don't want viewable by others that may use my computer. Is there any way to password protect a certain project or album to restrict access?

No. You can hide images using the "reject" rating, and you can password protect a Library by putting it on a password-protected sparsebundle.
A good answer
A search of this Discussion forum.
OS X has fast-user switching and a built-in Guest account. I never allow anyone access to my account.
To limit a client's view to just his/her Projects, use Aperture's "Favorites" function. A forum regular -- Shutters33d, iirc -- posted this excellent suggestion just a couple of days ago.

A simple way to password protect my personal website?

I have an online photo album, and I don't necessarily want everyone to have access to my baby pics and me running around in my underwear when I was seven years old, so I want to password-protect the site. I have a good basic knowledge of building a site using DW-MX, but I admit that it's not very advanced. :>(( Does DW have a built-in ability to password-protect, or should I use something else?
I don't code HTML myself, but I think I could follow a tutorial as long as it's not too technical. I'm a bit hesitant that I'm going to bungle things in trying to implement a password, so I want to make sure I do this right.
Ideally I'd like to have a password field on my index/splash page, which one would need to pass in order to access any other sub-page. My host is GoDaddy, but I believe I've asked them about this possibility, and they just made suggestions for me - they didn't offer to do it themselves.

Does your goDaddy host support php? if so put a form similar to the one below on your index page i.e., asking for a 'password' and 'username'
<form action="password_protected.php" method="get">
<p>Username<br />
<input name="username" id="username" type="text" /></p>
<p>Password<br />
<input name="password" id="password" type="text" /></p>
<label for="button"></label>
<p><input type="submit" name="login" id="login" value="Login" />
</form></p>
Then create another page in DW and save it as password_protected.php. Open it in DW, go into code view and delete everything. Copy the below php code and paste it into the empty file and save it. Change the username and password from 'Pink', 'Elephant' to what you require and change the first url link from http://www.bbc.co.uk to that of the page you want protected and change http://www.itv.co.uk to that of the page you wish to send the user to if they do not supply the correct details.
<?php
$username = $_GET['username'];
$password = $_GET['password'];
if($username == "Pink" && $password == "Elephant") {
            header("Location: http://www.bbc.co.uk"); }
            else {
                header("Location: http://www.itv.co.uk");
?>

Password protect a gallery

Is it possible to password protect a photo album or gallery on my iweb 08 site?
Thanks,
Mark

iweb will see published iphoto gallery if it's not passworded in it's menu.
I would possibly use a sample photo and a text block hyper linked to the web gallery address.
Another approach might be to create a "sub" site(s) passworded and link to them.
good luck

Is it possible to password protect Movies in the new Web Gallery?

I have loaded several iPhoto albums onto my new Web Gallery - and I can password protect each using a different name and password for various friends and family. This is great as they each then have their own privacy. Some I have left open to view by everyone. BUT, I would like to password protect some movies from iMOvie '08. Can this be done for the movies as per the photo albums - and how? If yes - can it also be done for movies already published or will they have to be re-published?
thanks
Alan

The best I can figure out is that if you post your movie, but do not select the option to "Show project on Web Gallery home page," the video will not show on your home page for random visitors, but you can send the direct link to your video to whomever you want by copying it from the confirmation page after the video uploads. Not perfect, but the only option I see right now.

Password protection 4 FF3 but not Safari?

greetings.
first, i was able to post my albums from iweb on the web using safari only and not FF3. The password protection was working for safari. Then i found a handy patch to allow iweb to work on FF3. Now, however, the password protection only works when i open in FF3 but not Safari. weird. Anyone have this problem or have any tips?
cheers,
pamurai

Thanks Starman
it also helped to uncheck the "Miscellaneous" option in he "MIME Types" box in preferences
things are now working as they should

Password Protect Entire Gallery Page

I know you can protect individual albums but is there a way to password protect the whole gallery page ?
thanks

No. You can't password protect the entire MobileMe gallery as a unit but can protect each gallery individually with the same user name and password. '
If you want to make it convenient for visitors to have access to each gallery you could create an iWeb site with a page of hyperlinks to each of the protected MMe Galleries. Each hyperlink can be set to open in a new window so all it would take to get back to the page of hyperlinks would be to close the gallery window.

How to password protect mobileme gallery after its been published?

Is there a way to quickly add password protection to a already published set of pics instead re-uploading and choosing to protect it before the initial upload?

Yes. Just as you can update a MobileMe gallery with additional photos after initial publishing, you can update the settings including password protection.
Within Aperture, with the gallery "album" up, select the MobileMe popup menu from the tools at the bottom right of the screen. Within that, select "Settings..." Then edit the "Album viewable by:" section accordingly and re-"Publish." No need to re-upload your photos.
Some gallery/album settings can be modified via browsing into the MobileMe gallery, but to the best of my knowledge password protection cannot be modified there...
