Password protect iphotos?

Anyway to password protect iphotos so that others do not have access without using password?
Thanks,
DG

No - you can password protect your account so no one can access anything in it without your password - or you can put the iPhoto library in an encrypted partition on disk and one one can access it without the password
But you do not do any of that using iPhoto - those are all Mac OS features - iPhoto does not support password protection except as the OS does

    No. You can password protect the entire iPhone in Settings but not individual apps.

  • Password protecting iPhoto images

    Is it possible to password protect some of my photos.

    iPhoto doesn't have a direct way to protect certain photos.
    One way I can think of is to create an encrypted disk image using Disk Utility app and create a special library on this disk image. You'd need the disk image password to mount the disk and view the library. You'd need more than one library if you have some photos that you want unprotected. You can keep those in the current location.

  • 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

    One for the iPad forum, I think.

  • IPhoto - MobileMe gallery subscription - problem with password-protected

    I am having a peculiar problem with subscribed galleries from MobileMe in iPhoto 08 and iPhoto 09. For galleries that have password-protection enabled, the full URL of the gallery subscription feed is pulled through as the Subscription title instead of the gallery title.
    For example "http://gallery.e.com/ACCOUNT-NAME/XXXXXX/?webdav-method-truthget&depth=infinit y&feedfmt=atom....
    This doesn't occur for public MobileMe galleries. The title of the gallery comes across and the URL of the subscription is hidden.
    Anyone having similar problems? Local Genius Bar couldn't help and assumed it was just a bug, but it doesn't seem to be typical of Apple.
    As an aside, it would also be nice to have these feed subscriptions behave similarly to the way RSS subscriptions work in Mail, with the ability to select how often the feed is queried and indicate the number of new items. This would alert users of changes to feeds.

    Upon further research, it appears that this problem occurs when publishing from either iPhoto or Aperture to MobileMe. The problem seems to be when a gallery is published and one chooses not to have the gallery appear on the main gallery page (hidden). It seems to have nothing to do with whether or not one protects the gallery with a password.
    So, Apple, if you are listening, can you provide any information on how to have the title of the gallery come through when subscribing using iPhoto while at the same time not listing the gallery on the main MobileMe gallery page? This seems to be a fixable bug.

  • 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.

  • Is there anyway to password protect hidden photos in iPhoto

    is there anyway to password protect hidden photos in iPhoto

    is there anyway to password protect hidden photos in iPhoto
    No, not selected photos within one library.
    You could create a separate library for your secret photos and put this library on a password prtected sparse bundle, or keep this library in a separate user account.

  • How do you password protect web gallery

    Iphoto is easy to protect. How do you password protect your movies in webgallery? The help menu is not very clear

    The best I can figure out is that if you post your movie to the Gallery, 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. When the movie is done posting, you can send the direct link of 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.

  • Can't access password protected .Mac Web Gallery

    Safari is my primary browser. I have been creating web galleries using iLife '08 and my .Mac account and then viewing them with Safari for the past month or so with no trouble. This weekend I tried creating a password protected web gallery and it won't load in Safari. The gear icon just spins forever and has timed out when I have left it alone long enough. My other web galleries continue to load just fine. Clicking on the link from within iPhoto for my password protected gallery doesn't work, typing the url into Safari doesn't work, going to my gallery index and clicking on the icon of the "locked" gallery doesn't work, etc. I can still view all of my other web galleries, but this one that I'm trying to protect just won't load.
    This actually appears to be a Safari problem. I don't get a dialog asking for User Name and Password. The url works just fine using Firefox on my Mac, and it also works on a PC running Windows XP. When using something other than Safari, I get the prompt for User Name and Password that I would expect. Upon entering that information, everything looks normal and works just fine.
    Tsk tsk Apple! Safari shouldn't be having trouble displaying protected .Mac web galleries. Sheesh!

    Just wanted to let you know that I have the EXACT SAME problem, except it is affecting my password protected iWeb site and my Gallery. I can view it from Firefox, so that is the web browser I am using now. I sent a bug report to Apple, and I also send them a request for help using e-mail, but so far I have gotten no response. Hopefully someone is working on the fix?

  • Password protect some pages in an iweb site

    Just wondering if it is possible to password protect certain pages in an iweb site....
    I have a phtography site that i use for more professional pictures, however I wanted to upload personal pictures and only have certain people be able to access the pictures on certain pages?
    does anyone know if this can be done?
    for example and person who visits my site may see all my work on photo page 1 and 2, however only restricted persons can access pages 3?
    if anyone has any insight, it would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    You can only password protect a site. So you can add another site, move the pages you want to it and password protect it. Then add a text based link to the second site.
    An alternative could be to create an iPhoto Web gallery that's password protected and link to it from your site and have it open in an new window so it's easy to get back to your original site.

  • 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

    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.

  • Share movie from Quicktime X to MobileMe Gallery with password protection?

    Is it possible to share a movie using "Share" -> "MobileMe Gallery" with userid/password protection like from iPhoto or iMovie.
    I can share it from Quicktime X to MobileMe but the movie is 'public' on my gallery.
    Thanks,
    Roland

    Not with QuickTime X (at this time).
    Use iPhoto to make a "private" Gallery page.

  • How to password protect an existing MobileMe gallery folder?

    I have created quite a few large events and published them on MobileMe, and did not think about restricting access to them. Now I want to password protect some of them, but could not find a place in iPhoto where I could change MobileMe gallery properties. Is there a way to do this without deleting and publishing again? Or change access privileges to these galleries in the future?

    While viewing the gallery in iPhoto click on the Setting cog wheel button at the bottom. In the window that comes click on the Advanced button. Now you can hid the gallery from your other galleries and assign a username and password to it.
