Aperture project photos not showing up in iWeb

Hi, I posted this in the iWeb board as well, but have gotten no response.
I use iWeb to create a website based around my photography and a blog I update periodically. I have been using this combination for at least two years now with no problems. By the way, the OS is SL 10.6.2, the Aperture version is 2.1.4, I use iLife '09 and all current patches and updates for each of the above is current according to Software Update.
The problem I am experiencing is with the Media Browser in iWeb. For one project only, when I click on the project in the Media Browser, no photos display in the lower half of the browser. The project in question is a new one, but other newer projects are not exhibiting this behavior. For all other projects, albums, smart albums, etc. photos appear when the project/album button is clicked. I have deleted the plist file for iWeb, restarted iWeb and Aperture, rebooted the machine (iMac Core Duo 24" late 2007), and tried every other combination I can think of.
Does anyone have any idea of why this behavior is occurring and what I can do to remedy it? Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
Rick

Have you tried regenerating the previews for that Project? Go to the project, select all the images then choose Images >> Delete Previews followed by Images >> Update Previews.
Deleting the previews first isn't strictly necessary, but it's good to start with a clean slate.

Photos not showing up when iweb site published

Once the website has been updated to iweb 08 the photos on pages do not show up.
Has anyone found a solution to this?

I am having the same problem and I built my site from iWeb 2.02 from the start. The curious thing is that the pictures show up on my G4 but not on my old G3 which runs OS X 10.3.9. Most of my friends are getting the pictures too. Could it be a computer problem instead of an iWeb publishing problem!?!

OWC RAID 5 not showing up in PPro Media Browser

Hello all,
I've seen other threads about OWC RAIDs not showing up in PPro and the solution has been to use the Mac's Disk Utility to reformat the drive. Disk Utility can't do RAID 5 though and that's what my 16TB OWC Mercury Elite Pro Qx2 is set to. If I use the File->Import command I can see the OWC RAID but it is not present in the Media Browser (nor in the window that pops up to re-link offline media). FCP 7, AVIC MC 6.5 and After Effects CC2014 all 'see' and interact with the OWC RAID just fine. The problem seems to be isolated to Premiere's Media Browser function.
If anyone has a suggested work around I'd love to hear it.

So it turns out the answer was in front of me all along, just use Disk Utility to format the drive and all is well.
What threw me was that Disk Utility only does RAID 1 and RAID 0 but since the OWC Mercury Elite Pro Qx2 is a hardware RAID I just set the RAID mode using the switch on the enclosure and then use Disk Utility to format it like I would any other disk.
The simplicity of the solution coupled with my lack of experience with RAID boxes proved to be my undoing. haha.
With that being said, I'd still like to see if Adobe can fix the issue w/the default OWC formatting tool.

IPhotos not showing up in Garageband Media Browser

I have been able to duplicate this problem on multiple network accounts. We are using a WIN2003 SMB server. I have a 2700+ iPhoto file library. I have rebuilt/recreated the iPhoto library and the problem
is that the Garageband Media browser for iPhoto does not work. We are using the latest Garageband 3.04 and iPhoto 6.0.6. Any ideas why this might be happening? It seems to work find with other
iPhoto libraries that aren't as large.

Iphoto does not appear in iweb media browser

I am just getting started w/ iWeb anad have 2 questions:
1. I have iPhoto 6.0.6. My iPhoto library does not appear in the iWeb media browser. How do I fix this?
2. Why can't I highlight a movie from my iPhoto library and publish it to iWeb? How do I get a movie from iPhoto to iWeb?
thank you!

Where are your images sourced from? Are they all coming from the same camera for example? It could be that there is actually a white border on your images.
Try opening a few images up in an image editor and checking if there is a trim around the edge.

Photos not showing in media viewer

Hi.. I am using iweb 09 to build my website.
However I cant view my photos that I have in Aperture, in the media viewer in iweb.
I only have the one Aperture project on my laptop, and all of the non-edited... and edited photos within that project don't show in the media viewer in iweb... So I cant drag the pictures I would like to include on my website from the media viewer.
I tried closing iweb and deleting the plist in my home folder but no difference. i un-stacked all the photos in Aperture to see if they would show up.. no luck either.
Can anyone suggest anything please... All my updates are up to speed..
Thanks..... Gerry

Gerry ~ Are the 40 all .CR2 files, or all .PSD files?
According to Wikipedia, RAW image files such as .CR2 +"fulfill the same role as negatives in film photography: that is, the negative is not directly usable as an image"+...

...Perhaps that's the reason media browsers don't see them. For suggestions on converting .CR2 files click HERE.

Aperture is not showing up on iWeb or iMovie

My library in Aperture is not showing up on iWeb or iMovie. All that shows up is iPhoto which I dont have much on there so right now my temp fix is transferring the photos I need to iPhoto and then using but shouldnt Aperture integrate the same way.

but shouldnt Aperture integrate the same way.
It definitely should. Have you set Aperture to always share Previews with the iLife and iWorks Appications?
Aperture main menu -> Aperture -> Preferences -> The Previews Tab
Set this to "Share previews with iLife and iWorks", also to "New Projects automatically generate previews" and select a reasonable preview size, the size of your screen would be perfect.
If you already had sharing enabled, update the previews: Photos -> Update Previews
or Photos -> Delete Previews, and then "Update"
If this did not help, you may have a problem, that the Media Browser does not recognize your Library:
Create a new (temporary) Aperture Library: File -> Switch to Library -> Other/new
Then Quit Aperture, open Aperture again,
Switch to your old Library: File -> Switch to Library -> Your main Aperture Library
Quit Aperture again.
Hopefully the iApps now will show Aperture.
If not, maybe there are problems with your Preferences or the Library needs fixing: Then go thru the drill of the Trouble Shooting basics:
Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3805
If this does not help, report back.
Good luck

Photos not showing in iphoto, help!

Just upgraded to leopard, and now, when I try to open a photo in iphoto or make one of my own pictures a background, it wont do it, and comes up with this image in iphoto. Its iphoto 6 and not 08.
Here is the picture:

AS you can see its picking the photos up, its just not displaying them like it should do.
Can anyone help?

Hi
Yes I draged some of the pictures from the finder and made a new folder called photos, but when I look for the photos in the finder under itunes they are all still there.
It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss
Now, to recover the situation you have two options:
1. Return things exactly as they were or
2. Restore an up-to-date back up or
2. create an populate a new library.
To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.
Assuming that you moved those files to make the easier to find, There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
To upload to MySpace or any site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser. Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves. If you're willing to risk database corruption, you can restore the older functionality simply by right clicking on the iPhoto Library and choosing 'Show Package Contents'. Then simply make an alias to the folders you require and put that alias on the desktop or where ever you want it. Be aware though, that this is a hack and not supported by Apple.

Some Aperture photos and projects missing from iLife Media Browser

Good evening - having a little bit of trouble getting Aperture to work smoothly with my iLife media browser (i.e., inserting photos into Mail, Pages, Keynote, etc).
I currently have 5699 photos and 131 projects in Aperture. But the iLife Media Browser only shows me 5131 photos and 130 projects; when clicking on individual projects in the browser, anywhere from 3 to 70 photos per project are missing. Tried repairing permissions, repairing the database, and rebuilding the database - this improved the issue, but didn't completely resolve it as 5679 photos now show in the Media Browser, and 20 remain missing. Also tried deleting, and generating previews for all my photos in the library. No change.
My library is mostly referenced, with a few photos managed.
Obviously in the grand scheme of things 20 photos missing in the Media Browser not that big a deal. But wanting to get to the root cause though because without solving this issue, I'm concerned about a larger underlying problem that may only get worse as my library grows.
Has anyone had, or resolved a problem similar to this? And can anyone offer any additional suggestions? Are there any specific files that feed the iLife Media Browser that I can delete and rebuild that may solve this issue?
thanks,
Mark

I think I've ironed this out. Several intertwined issues. I took a moment to type out my notes; hopefully it helps you guys solve this quickly if you get a call from someone else on this down the line.
[1] original problem of several hundred items missing in Media Browser: probably an issue of previews not being built. Mostly fixed when I regenerated previews for my library, but repairing permissions and repairing the database may have helped too.
[2] Residual problem of 20 items still missing (5698 items displayed in Aperture when selecting Inspector > Library > Photos; 5677 items displayed in Mail Photo Browser). My issue wasn't as much with 20 missing items in a browser as it was with trying to understand the root cause and whether I had an underlying Aperture, Aperture Library, or OS problem that would bite me later. Turns out several things were causing this problem:
[2a] In Aperture, when you select Inspector > Library > Photos , all your content is displayed: photos, videos, and any audio clips you may have imported (e.g., a recorded audio clip on your camera narrating shoot, location, client, exposure value etc). So even though you've selected "Photos", your "xxx items displayed" count on the bottom of the screen reflects all your imported content. This is not the case in the Media Browser - of which there are two variants in Mac OS:
[2a.1] Mail has a Photo Browser, which behaves much like a "Media Browser Lite: the title bar says "Photo Browser", it only accesses your Aperture and iPhoto Libraries, and only shows photos and video.
[2a.2] iWork applications have a more comprehensive Media Browser, where you can select between Audio, Photos, and Movies. If you select Audio the iWork Media Browser will show any audio files present in your Aperture or iTunes library. If you select Movies, the iWork Media Browser will show any movie clips present in your Aperture or iMovie libraries. Photos behaves the same way as "Photo Browser" in Mail, showing any photos present in your Aperture (or iPhoto if installed) libraries.
Turns out I had three audio clips in my Aperture library. When selecting "Photos" in either the Mail or iWork browsers, the total item count will only show photos and videos - no audio clips. So now 17 missing items remain.
[2b] Stacks - one project contained nine photos grouped into a stack. Only the key photo of a stack is previewed/shown in Media Browser. So a stack of nine photos will only show as one in the browser - unstacking the photo will allow them all to appear. So now nine missing items.
[2c] Seven photographs somehow had broken links to their referenced masters, and needed to be reconnected. Down to two missing items.
[2d] One photo simply wouldn't cooperate - no matter how many times I regenerated the preview, or deleted the preview and then regenerated it, nothing worked. I deleted it from the library and reimported it. One missing item remains.
[2e] Final missing item was a photograph I rejected. Makes sense; as media browser does not display rejects.
Problem solved!! Hopefully this might be of help to somebody in the future.
cheers,
Mark

Websites not showing up in iWeb

I have some websites that were created in an earlier version of iWeb that show up in the Sites folder on the MobileMe website, but they DO NOT show up in iWeb. I cannot figure out how to "sync" my local iWeb with what is on MobileMe. Any Suggestions?

There is no way to "sync" your local iWeb with what is on MobileMe. Only iWeb's Domain file can be opened in iWeb. See this Apple doc on How to back up MobileMe data. It says:
Any websites you have published with iWeb should still be available within iWeb. iWeb stores everything in a Domain file, normally located in the ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder (although it can be moved). If you no longer have this file, you can view your currently published pages and manually recreate them within iWeb, but there is no way to import published pages back into iWeb.
You can manually back up the Domain file, or use Backup to back it up.
By the way, for searching purposes it may be useful to know that an iWeb '06 Domain file is called "Domain.sites" and iWeb '08 & '09 Domain files are called "Domain.sites2" — although the “.sites” extension is usually invisible.
If you don't have a backup of your Domain file (e.g. via Time Machine), paragraph 2.3 of this FAQ page gives some tips on how to use published files, graphics, photos, etc., to help rebuild the site from scratch:

Phone will save ringtones/pictures but not show them in the media folder.

As my subject said, my phone will save pictures and ringtones, however will not show them in the media folder, but if I got through the long way, through the "files" icon in applications all of the new ringtones and pictures are there. So any help would be much appreciated, thank you.

Hello TyRamos and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Remove your battery followed by your media card.
Reinsert your battery first and allow the device to complete the reboot. Once done, insert your media card. You should get a pop saying media card is inserted.
Go to your Media folder and check for your photos and ringtones.
Let me know how you make out
Thanks
