Photo adding on iweb

I am trying to use my album page on iweb, but i cannot add a picture. do i have to use mobile me to use that? i tried everything, dragging photos to the album area, using iphoto, toolbox, but any of them didn't succeed. Is there someone know why it is?
Thanks.

If you haven't already done so, create your album in iPhoto, add any other pictures to it and then drag this album from the media window onto the Albums template in iWeb.

Photos added to iWeb (iLife 11) seems very over-exposed.

They look fine in Photoshop or iPhoto. They also seem fine when I upload them to Picasaweb or to flickr.com
Please help!

That may be a Picasaweb/Flickr issue. As a test upload a photo from outside of iPhoto to those sites and see if you get the same effect. If you do then you know it's not an iPhoto issue.

Photo Resolution in iWeb

Hello all, completely new to this and have only been using my Mac for about a month, but thought I'd give it a try. My question relates to when you are building your website in iweb and bringing in pics from Aperture. What I am wondering is this, when you drag your pics from the Aperture tab in the media column in iweb, does it place the photos on your page at full resolution or is it reducing it for you? I know the ideal resolution for web photos is 72 dpi (prevents copying at full res. for printing) but the photos I have stored in Aperture are usually full resolution unless I export them with an export preset where I have chosen the resolution. I hope that makes sense, thank you to anyone that may be able to help!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Actually iWeb does a pretty good job of optimizing photos when added to a web page if its preferences are set to optimize upon import.

I added a 3.3 MB, 3264 x 2448 pixel JPEG photo to a page, resized it to 300 x 225 pixels and published. The resulting jpg file was reduced to 41KB.
I ran some other tests on this demo page: Photo Import and Download File Size Test.
For photos added to photo pages or album pages it's a different story and depends on what size you select for downloading.

I tried to implement photo albums using iweb and got a publishing error.

I tried to implement photo albums using iweb and got a publishing error. All was fine with my site until I added the photo album page. The software doesnt say what the error is exactly, only that it is a publishing error to my ftp
Exact message "There was an error communicating with the FTP server. Try again later, or check with your service provider."
If I reduce the albums inside to 1 then it seems to work but that takes away from the usefullness of multiple albums.
my iWeb version is 3.0.4 (601)

Publish your site to a folder on your hard drive to see if the publication will proceed successfully and open the site locally with your browser to confirm all of the alums are there and work. If they do try the following:
delete the iWeb preference files, com.apple.iWeb.plist and com.apple.iWeb.plist.lockfile, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
Click to view full size
launch iWeb and try again.
If you're still not able to publish from iWeb to your server download and use the free Cyberduck to upload your website files to the server. Users have found that CD has been successful when iWeb had problems.

TS3989 Photos are ok in aperture and iphoto but in photostream on ipad and iphone the top of all portrait photos is chopped off. I tried switching photostream off and on but got the same. Only happened with photos added today, all past photos are fine

I have never had any problems before but all portrait photos added today have the top chopped off. For example , people's heads are missing or roofs or buildings are chopped off. Photos are fine on the camera and on my mac in iphoto and aperture. Switched off photostream on my ipad...all photos were deleted. Switched photostream back on and all photos uploaded again and portrait photos are cropped again

It sounds like while trying to import the photos with insufficient disk space those image files were damaged and not copied fully. Now that you have sufficient space (a minimum of 10 GB is recommended) the latest imports are good.
What do you get if you export one of the problem photos out of iPhoto as Kind=Original and try to open it with Preview. If it appears the same then there's nothing you can to do recover them.

How to get MobileMe photo galleries into iWeb or from Aperture?

I currenlty use MobileMe for an iWeb published site, on which I have a link to a several dozen photo galleries, all pub;ished from Aperture. iPhoto has an iWeb "button", but Aperture does not so far as I can see. I am trying to find the easiest way to keep all of my stuff intact once MM dies next year. How can I migrate, not link, my MM photo galleries into iWeb, and/or publish them from Aperture into iWeb? Once I have the photo galleries as part of iWeb, then I'll be able to use it to publish to another web hosting service. Thanks!

Do you have the original image files used to make up those MMe Galleries? If so you can group them into albums in iPhoto and use the iWeb Album page or Photos page and ignore the MMe galleries.
If the files are in Aperture and there's no Aperture section in iWeb's Media Browser you will have to export those files out of Aperture as originals and drag them either into iPhoto or into an iWeb photos page. I don't use Aperture so an unsure of what can be done between Aperture and iWeb.
If those galleries are the only copy of the photos you have you'll need to download the file (if the gallery allows it) and import into iPhoto before going into iWeb.

Web sites won't recognize photos added to iPhoto since migrating data

So, I'm stymied. I haven't seen a solution or question already asked that is precisely like my problem, so I thought I'd just ask it myself.
A couple months ago, I did something to bork up the permissions in Lion - if I could be more specific I would. The solution as it eventually dawned on me and the actually really helpful guy at the Genius Bar, after trying literally everything possible besides wiping, was to just wipe the HDD and start over. So that's what I did. I used Time Machine to back up everything so that I could just import the data into the new programs, without simply copying everything over including preferences using Migration Assistant. Lo and behold, it fixed all my permissions problems. But now I have a new problem.
Whenever I want to upload photos to a website, such as Flickr (or any other - I've tried many of them), photos added to my iPhoto '09 library after that migration happened do not appear in the Media browser window. Everything before the migration is there, but nothing after. This is not the case for pictures taken in Photo Booth, interestingly enough.
I've verified and repaired disk permissions, I've cleaned out all the iPhoto plist files, both in Library/Caches and Library/App Support. I've opt+cmd started iPhoto and 1) rebuilt all thumbnails, and 2) examined and repaired iPhoto permissions. I've cleared out all the caches on all my browsers. Nothing has worked. I imagine upgrading to iPhoto '11 may help, but I'm not sure. I'm willing to give that a shot if it's the last option.

Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Problem publishing Photo page with iWeb 08

Hello,
I have a problem when publishing photo pages with iWeb 08. Upload starts and then I get the error message that iWeb encountered a problem while publishing. The funny thing is that I can see
the photo page in Safari. The only problem is that when starting the slide show I can not see the
forward/backward buttons. Publishing a photo page with iWeb from a .me web photo gallery works without any error message, but still when starting the slideshow the navigation buttons are not displayed. Actually if you click on the place where the navigation buttons are supposed to be,
you can go picture forward/backward. Any idea ?

I am having the same issue, except I do not get any error messages when publishing to a folder. Clicking on the "index" file within the folder will open the photo page in both Safari and Firefox. Everything functions as designed except no forward/backward/pause buttons are visible below the slideshow. There are text box outlines with a question mark where these buttons are supposed to be located, and I can pause, advance or reverse slides. Eventually these question mark outlines disappear and stay disappeared.
The end result is there are no intuitive graphic indicators on the slide show to even suggest to the viewer that he/she has some control over the presentation. I don't believe I can add explanatory text boxes to the slide show to compensate for the missing icons. This lack of visible control elements in the slide show is a huge issue. I am reasonable sure the problem does not reside within my computer. I've also reviewed inspector control options for a photo page/slide show and haven't gotten any combination of check boxes to make a difference.
I'm beginning to think this may be an unexpected conflict that was contained within a recent software update. It might well be worth a close look at programming code by Apple technicians. In the meantime, can anyone offer a clue as to what might be going on?

Photos in iPhoto / iWeb

If I've used a photo in iWeb from iPhoto and then delete the photo from iPhoto, does the photo remain in iWeb or does it become a blank space?

iWeb will "remember" it. The info is stored in the domain.sites2 file.

Multiple photo albums in iWeb?

How can I create multiple photo albums in iWeb? When I simply pull albums from iPhoto to iWeb, the photos appear individually.

Updated to Firefox 3.6. My Photo Albums display properly on an iWeb site in Safari; they also previously did with the Firefox version I had updated from. However, the photo albums have disappeared now from my Photo Album page.

Apparently many people are having this problem but it isn't resolved for anyone. Is it Apple's problem or is it Firefoxe's -- and is this happening in IE too (we don't have IE here on our computers btw)
Since these are professionally-related photo albums it sure would be nice if this could be fixed pronto.

Photo resolution on iweb

Does anyone know how to improve the photo resolution on iweb? Can i upload pics from iphoto to iweb with original file size?

Does anyone know how to improve the photo resolution
on iweb? Can i upload pics from iphoto to iweb with
original file size?
Yes, you can. Not sure why you would want to do this. Web images tend to have to balance image quality with download speed. But sure, you can have your original photo used in iWeb. Just drag it from iPhoto directly into iWeb. Then open up the Inspector and click on the Rulers tab. The click "Use original size". That will be your original photo.
If you make any other changes to your photo like shrinking it down to a little square or rotating it or putting a frame around it, then iWeb will convert your photo to a PNG file and subsequently recompress the image for the PNG file. That will again lower your resolution.

Can't get new photos added to existing iPhoto albums to sync with iPhone

I tried talking about this in the iTunes area, but there was no response:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/20660036#20660036
I thought I'd drop by the iPhone discussion area next.
The problem in a nutshell is that I can't get new photos added to iPhoto albums to sync with my iPhone 5. I can even unselect the albums, sync, see the albums deleted on the iPhone, select the albums again, sync, see the albums recreated - but the recreated albums don't include the photos I added yesterday.
I don't know if this is an iTunes 11 bug, an iPhoto bug or an iPhone bug.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
doug

Yes, but which album will be empty?
Anyway, as soon as I saw how creating albums locally on the iPhone actually worked I said to myself, "This is not reasonable" and as much as I dislike iPhoto decided to keep doing it there until that feature is improved.
It seems like an obvious thing to improve. Then the albums can sync between the iPhone, iPhoto and other iOS devices more like "it just works" (which it doesn't do now).

IWeb-How can viewers export/capture photos from my iweb sites?

I am working with iweb 08 and created a website for fellow classmates to view old grade and High school pictures with names and want them to be able to export or capture copies of any photograph from my iWeb site for their own use. I want them to have a good quality photo that can be in a size from 5 x 7 to 8 x 10 inches like the originals.
How can they get copies of photos off my iWeb site??

Hello Newbe here
Have been playing with iWeb and I believe that it can do what I want it to - however, I have been struggling yo get it to play ball.
I have a load of large images in my idisk-Public folder, however this is a bit cumbersome to navigate and does not offer the user a preview of the image. What I was hoping to do was to create a small website in iWeb and then place some thumbnails on the pages (with some text etc) and then links to the actual files on the iDisk/Public folder. For information there is about 2GB of files (many of which are 300dpi large PSD files at between 25-50MB each). As such, it would be impossible to embed them in the website and, I don't really want to have to upload all 2BG back to iDisk again in order to get links in the iWeb directory to work.
I was hoping that I could use the hyperlink to a file - but this does not seem to work and it just seems to embed the file into the website. If I go to iDisk/Public and try and point the hyperlink at a specific file - then it seems that everything in the public folder has the same web address (I have a number of sub-folders in the Public directory).
So just for total clarity - what I am trying to do is generate a website in iWeb, place a small JPG or PNG file (thumbnail) and then provide a number of links to a source file either as part of the thumbnail image or with some text next to the image (where the file is available in a number of formats - e.g. PSD, EPS, TIF, etc).
I hope that this makes sense and that someone out there knows how to solve this issue and is kind enough to point me in the right direction - before I pull all of my hair out.
Thanks in anticipation.......
Andy

Is ilife any good at publishing simple photo galleries like iWeb/ mobile me used to be?

is ilife any good at publishing simple photo galleries like iWeb/ mobile me used to be?

As Roddy pointed out iWeb will still create album and/or photo pages that will work on the hosting server of your choice. These two pages are demos of that: Using an iWeb Album Page as an Alternative to MobileMe Galleries and Using an iWeb Photo Page as an Alternate to a MobileMe Gallery
This may also be of help to you: Life After MobileMe.
