Public Websites in Photos

How do I create a Public Website out of a Shared Album in Photos? Seems like this functionality was lost from iPhoto even though it is still on Apple's Shared Albums webpage.

The Camera Roll will appear as a digital camera when you connect the phone to a computer (separately from iTunes). You transfer the photos to your computer, then organized them into albums on your computer as described in the iTunes manual. You can then sync the photos to the photo view app on the phone.
Which I've given up because it is so primitive. Instead I upload photos to Picasa, then use the iPicaso app to view them on the phone. It has an option to cache the photos on the phone, so it provides the same basic capabilities as the built in app but lets you better organize and label photos.
You can also use it to upload photos directly to Picasa from the phone.

  • Photo stream "public website" in Internet Explorer - photo thumbnail's are gray, individual photo view is fine. Tested from various computers. No issue with Firefox, Safari or Chrome.

    Dear All,
    Recently I have started to use Photo Stream available from iCloud on iPhone device. I have made “test” photo stream with several photos in and set to “public website” in order to share photos with my relatives.
    The issue is with Internet Explorer where list of photos (thumbnails) are shown in gray color. I can view photo one by one and slideshow also works fine.
    On other computers IE behaves the same way.

    No issue with photo list in thumbnails using Safari, Chrome or Firefox.
    Can someone help on this issue?
    It is very convenient to share photos via photo stream, but most of viewers by default has IE and many of them don’t have iCould account or apple device.
    Kind regards,
    M

    Dear safari rss
    Indeed, you are right, I have updated IE to version 10 and no issue with page view.
    Solution woud be to update IE to version 10 (I have not tested IE9).
    However users using Windows XP can have highest IE version 8. IE9 or IE10 is not suported in XP.
    Unfortunatelly there are still many windows XP at my friends circle.
    Thank you,
    Best regards

  • Are iCloud photo streams shared on a public website crawlable by search engines?

    I want to share a photo stream with friends and family, not all of whom have apple devices, so I'm pretty sure I need to share it as a public website and share the link that is assigned to it. However, I still want this photo stream to be private within this group. So I am wondering if icloud photo streams on public sites are crawlable/findable by search engines.

    Hey there dzaffrann,
    It sounds like you have some questions about sharing your iCloud Photo Stream on a public site. Here is an article for you with some answers to these questions:
    iCloud Photo Sharing FAQ
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5902
    Can I share with people who don't use iCloud?
    Yes. If you enable Public Website in the settings for your shared album, your photos will be published to a website that anyone can view in an up-to-date web browser. Learn more about inviting people to view your shared album.

  • How to Hide/Remove Name from Photo Stream Public Website?

    I'm using Aperture 3 to share a photo stream on public website and just noticed that my full name is shown at top right corner. Is there a way to hide this for privacy concerns and still share pictures with non-iCloud members?

    I tried changing my name (Apple ID). It had no effect on the Aperture photo stream website page (and yes, I tried it with a new photo stream).
    I still think your name should not be included by default with public website, as well as ability to prevent pictures from Copy/Save.

  • Is it viewable by anyone photos when sharing photo stream by ticking 'Public website'

    Hi Guys,
    2 questions:
    1. Where is the web-address when sharing photo on on photo stream in iPhoto (Mac version) by ticking 'public website'? how can i find it for reference?
    2. is it viewable by anyone not invited?
    Thanks.
    Pedro

    When you create and publish a Public Photo Stream and then open it's Info tray in iPhoto the URL to the website will be show in the tray:
    It will be viewable by anyone who gets a hold of the URL. You can send the URL to selected recipients but if they share it others can view the photos.
    To view a private Photo Stream the recipient must have an Apple ID and an iCloud account. They will receive a notification like this:
    Only those who have been invited can view a private Photo Stream.

  • More about public website option in shared photo stream

    Can you require a password/authentication to enter the public website of the shared photo stream?
    I want to share photos with non-Apple users. I know how to do this - through electing the 'public website' option 'so anyone can view them' when creating the shared photo stream.
    My question focuses on how secure is this public website? Does it really mean "anyone" in the public could technically view them whether or not I added them to the subscriber list? Is it possible to require a password for my subscribers to view the website?
    I'd be sharing family photos of my new baby boy and I'm not wild about the idea that any "Joe Schmoe" out there could potentially view them if they somehow found or got access to the link to the shared photo stream.
    You could do this with MobileMe through the My Gallery. If iCloud is supposed to be "superior" to MobileMe, I would think sharing photos with people, even non-Apple users, securely would be even easier with iCloud.
    Thanks.

    Incidentally you mght like to look at SmugMug - this allows password protection of galleries, together with a password hint if required.

  • How to hide full name when publishing photos to icloud's public website?

    When allowing iPhoto to publish photos to iCloud (Public Website, allow anyone to view this photo stream at:..." my full Name (xxx by xxx) is always displayed when opening the link.
    Does anyone know how to hide or change the name displayed?

    I tried changing my name (Apple ID). It had no effect on the Aperture photo stream website page (and yes, I tried it with a new photo stream).
    I still think your name should not be included by default with public website, as well as ability to prevent pictures from Copy/Save.

  • Sharing photos through iCloud as "Public Website"

    Is there a way to password protect photo albums that you have shared through iCloud as a "Public Website"? Is obscurity the only protection for the photos (i.e., that no one else knows the link to the album website)?

    You can't password protect it.  As you mentioned, the only protection is that the url is only known to people you invite, and is unlikely to be discovered by others.

  • I have a shared photo stream that I converted to a public website. If enough people view it, will it show up in a search?

    I have a shared photo stream that I converted to a public website. If enough people view it, will it show up in a search? It is for my business. I would like to provide pricing information but I do not want it to be found if a consumer searches for it. Are photo streams searchable on google, etc?

    How much space depends on the size of the photos and how many there are.
    Settings > general > usage > photos & camera. The shared albums will be included along with other photos.

  • How to turn of public website of a Photostream?

    I accidentally turned on the public website function of a private Photostream.
    I cannot seem to turn it off and now it keeps consuming mobile internet en battery.
    I have limited mobile internet, so I have to pay while it is still on.
    Can someone tell me how to turn it off?

    It's obviously hung up as it sould take less than a minute (and often, only a few seconds).  Try force-closing the photos app:  from the home screen, double-tap the home button, locate Photos in the list at the bottom, tap and hold it until it wiggles, tap to close it, tap the home button again.  Then reset your device by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then releasing.  When it restarts, reopen Photos and see if it's still stuck on publishing.

  • Public Website for Shared Photostream on iPad?

    On an iPhone with iOS 6.1, in Photos, I can see all my photostreams, including those that are shared and public, by tapping the detail chevron on the right in the table row, then I can add subscribers, but I can also see the URL for the public website and can even Share (the) Link.
    On an iPad with iOS 6.1, in Photos, I can select photo streams from among albums, events, faces, etc. but WHERE IN THE WORLD CAN I SEE AND SHARE THE PUBLIC WEBSITE AND LINK? How do I find the "Details" about each photo stream? I've spent 20 minutes trying to figure this out.
    Thanks.

    Whoa! I'm an iOS dev, and I have to say that is the worst UX I have seen from Apple! You tap Edit and the only visual change is delete circles - no, I don't want to delete the photo stream and I don't want to delete one by tapping to confirm deletion. I was scared to tap one! There is NO "affordance" that tapping any of the photo streams will let you do anything else but delete them one by one. They should've have just wiggled or something without the delete circle. Horrible UX.
    But, thanks for the answer!

  • Public Website ???

    I am new to this .. Just brought a MacBook Pro 3 weeks ago, have everything else running great on it, but for iPhoto and Photo Stream.
    Set up Photo stream and click
    Public Website
    Yet there is no URL so you can view them
    Reading the net it says to get to your photostream you need to type in
    http://www.icloud.com/photostream – user's Photo Stream access.
    Where do you find your User's Photo Stream Access? I cannot find this any where.
    I do not have a iPhone or iPad as of yet as only moving across from Windows.
    PS : In the Box I added my Email address .. and nothing arrived, I have tired over 5 times to email and nothing.

    Just to be sure - you created a "Shared Photo Stream", right?
    Select "Photo Stream" in the "Web" section of the Source List.
    Then select your new Shared Stream in the "My Photos" section of the viewer.
    The "Info" panel should show a button "Visit Website", if your Shared Stream is published as a webpage.

  • How do I add a dismissable notice to my (office 365) public website?

    Hi
    I have a public website and I want to add a small pop-up message that says something like "We have placed cookies on your computer to help make this website better. We use a Google Analytics script which sets cookies. More details can be found in our
    privacy policy. Click here to dismiss this message".
    Ideally this would appear at the top of the page and disappear when clicked.
    Does anyone know how I can do this? There are open source JavaScript's available but all seem to need html changes to the site and I don't think this can be done with the office 365 public website. I can't find anything relevant on the forums but I need
    to do this under EU law as it appears SharePoint uses a cookie and I also want to use google analytics.
    Any help appreciated.
    (this was originally posted on the office 365 forum and MS directed me here)

    hi,
    you can edit the master page for sharepoint online using the sharepoint designer 2013.
    you can add the google analytics and dismissal notice using javascript in master page.

  • Setting the colour of the search box text on a public website

    I am using the search box snippet in the header of my public website.
    The background of the header is a dark blue.  The search box background is transparent so the default colour of the text (#444) on the dark blue background is barely visible.
    The text colour appears to be set by the following entry in corev15.css:
    input[type=password],
    input[type=text],
    input[type=file],
    select,
    textarea,
    .sp-peoplepicker-topLevel,
    .sp-peoplepicker-topLevelDisabled,
    .sp-peoplepicker-autoFillContainer,
    .ms-inputBox
    border:1px solid #B0B0B0;
    background-color:#fff;
    background-color:rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.85);
    color:#FFFFFF;
    I changed the colour from #444 to #FFFFFF.
    Now I want to create a new post in the Blog.  The new post's Title and Body fields use the same entry in corev15.css to set the colour of the text.  As the background of the new post is white the text is invisible!
    Using the F12 development function in IE, setting the colour of the Search box text with an inline function works, but when I add style="color:white" to the <input> of the Search box snippet it seems to be ignored.
    What am I doing wrong?  Is there another way around the problem (I don't want to change the background colour of the header nor the background of the post page and there is no colour that will display the text well enough against both backgrounds).
    Your help would be much appreciated.
    Thanking you in anticipation.
    Roger
    rogerwithnell

    Thanks for your help, Patrick.
    Adding color: white !important; inline in the <input tag of the Search box snippet is still ignored, however.  When I look at the HTML and CSS with F12 in IE, the inline mark-up is not set.  I guess this something to do with how the Search Box
    snippet works?
    I've made some progress, though.  All the pages of the site (except the Blog NewPost page) use the corev15.css file. So I've set the colour here to white.  The css entry is:
    input[type=password],
    input[type=text],
    input[type=file],
    select,
    textarea,
    .sp-peoplepicker-topLevel,
    .sp-peoplepicker-topLevelDisabled,
    .sp-peoplepicker-autoFillContainer,
    .ms-inputBox
    border:1px solid #B0B0B0;
    background-color:#fff;
    background-color:rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.85);
    color:#FFFFFF;
    The Blog NewPost page uses \_catalog\theme\themed\CDD8DBA6/COREV15-51C31438.themedcss. I've changed the same CSS entry as follows:
    input[type=password],
    input[type=text],
    input[type=file],
    select,
    textarea,
    .sp-peoplepicker-topLevel,
    .sp-peoplepicker-topLevelDisabled,
    .sp-peoplepicker-autoFillContainer,
    .ms-inputBox
    border:1px solid #B0B0B0;
    background-color:#fff;
    background-color:rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.85);
    color:#444 !important;
    Now this page sets the colour to #444.  This means that the text in the Title and Body fields is visible but the text in the Search Box (with its dark blue background) is not.
    The Search Box on Blog NewPost is not vital but I'd like to fix it.  How can I do this?

  • I'm creating a public website and i have a javascript code that works on all browser except firefox. What should i do?

    Hi,
    I'm creating a public website that has a simple javascript button that will just set an asp.net dropdown value. It works on all browser except firefox...
    website: http://healthcareaustralia-web.sharepoint.com/Doctors/DailyShifts1.aspx
    So when you click on reset button it doesn't set the dropdowns to ALL
    this is the code:
    function resetFilters()
    var dropdown = document.getElementById('ctl00_PlaceHolderMain_DropDownList1');
    var ans = "All";
    dropdown.value = ans.value;
    document.location.href = "/Doctors/DailyShifts1.aspx";
    }

    hello, when i test it with current firefox versions, all works as expected: i choose custom dropdown values & select "filter", when i click "reset" next all dropdowns default back to "all" and the list gets refreshed.
    maybe try to [[Clear the cache - Delete temporary Internet files to fix common website issues|clear the cache]] & and reload the page or for other common troubleshooting steps refer to [[Websites look wrong or appear differently than they should]].
