Re-publishing problems to facebook

So I'm having troubles with my facebook publishing application out of lightroom 3. I can publish and album without problems but as soon as i edit or change any of the photos already published i run into problems. The edited photos end up re-publishing but the originals aren't deleted and thus my album become out of sequence and i have different versions of the same photo in different places within the album on facebook.
Is this a bug or am i just being ignorant to an easy fix?

Read this :
     The concept of iWeb Sites
And to anticipate future questions.
To avoid the Sitename in the URL, read my solution. It's very technical but in the end it saves time. And best of all, iWeb is not involved :
     Avoiding the iWeb Sitename in the URL
An easier, time-wasting, solution is to publish to a folder on your desktop.
Open that folder and move the content of that folder to the root of the webserver with a FTP application.
Everytime you make changes to a page, you have to repeat these steps.
But the result is what you want.
And here's a re-post with some additional info about using an index.php file :
    Avoiding the iWeb Sitename in the URL
Works on all servers. With or without a subdomain I may add. Like this one :
     http://wyodor.byethost8.com/htdocs/index.html
Not as easy as publishing to a folder, but in the end it saves time. Again.
See this post that explained the link above :
Re: iWeb keeps populating a site name at the end of my url.  Causing error.

  • Can someone help me with a problem I have publishing photos to Facebook and Flickr

    I am using LR4.4 on my HP laptop (Windows 7 Home premium) with Mozilla Firefox as my default browser. I was able to publish some photos from LR to my Facebook account early in October. I have some new photos to publish, but find I now can no longer publish to Facebook.  I get a message – “Facebook authentication check failed”. I have tried to reset up publishing to Facebook within LR, but when I click on the Authorize in Facebook, I get a Firefox Error Message:  “The address wasn't understood Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (lightroom) isn't associated with any program or is not allowed in this context. You might need to install other software to open this address.”  I have tried using IE as the default browser, but I get the following Internet Explorer Error Message:  “The webpage cannot be displayed. Most Likely Cause:  Some content or files on this webpage require a program that you don't have installed.”  From the Adobe website (helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/errors-occur-using-lightrooms-publish.html) I have unsuccessfully tried all 5 solutions to resolve this issue.
    Other steps I have tried - I have removed the LR app from Facebook, then attempted to Authorize from LR. I can get through 3 steps in Facebook (request for Public Profile, accept Posting to Facebook, and accept managing FB pages), but the final step again fails.  In Lightroom, after the authentication step fails, I note that the “Failed to receive authentication token” is highlighted blue. When I click on this, a popup appears (see below). I had found a suggestion that this should be changed (I can’t recall what the alternative url was – but part of it was …”export.facebook”…) but I’m not sure where this change should be made. I attempted to paste the new link into this field, but this didn’t seem to work either.        
    I have also tried to set up publishing of photos to my Flickr account. I go to the LR setup, which directs me to my Flickr account, and click on the authorize button. But again I get the same error message!  I am just about at the end of my knowledge / ability to solve my Publishing problem. I would really appreciate you help and advice with this issue. Can you please help me?

  • Problem with facebook publish

    I don't often publish to facebook, but in the past I have created several collections under the facebook publish service, each going to its own album of the same name.
    However today I decided to add 2 photos to an existing album, but when I click publish they appeared in a new album called "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Photos" instead of the existing album.
    Is this a change in the plugin or maybe something facebook has changed?
    Is there any way to get it to publish direct to albums again?

    I feel like I am talking to myself, but at least it is documented for others to find.
    I set about doing some investigating of my own and this is what I found was that the hilda url was mentioned in the Catalog.lrcat file, so using the sqlite3 command line tool I started to look at old copies I had in TimeMachine
    Back on 2011-11-27 Catalog.lrcal contained
    sqlite> select * from AgLibraryPublishedCollection where id_local in (495048, 603758);
               id_local = 495048
             creationId = com.adobe.ag.library.collection.published
              genealogy = /6495013/6495048
             imageCount =
    isDefaultCollection =
                   name = My Girls
                 parent = 495013
           publishedUrl = http://www.facebook.com/album.php?fbid=40409577156&id=522867156&aid=54424
    remoteCollectionId = 40409577156
             systemOnly = 0.0
    Then sometime before 2011-12-04 I added a 500px published collection with the same name and the catalog changed to
    sqlite> select * from AgLibraryPublishedCollection where id_local in (495048, 603758);
               id_local = 495048
             creationId = com.adobe.ag.library.collection.published
              genealogy = /6495013/6495048
             imageCount =
    isDefaultCollection =
                   name = My Girls
                 parent = 495013
           publishedUrl = http://gbarr/my_girls
    remoteCollectionId = 34451.0
             systemOnly = 0.0
               id_local = 603758
             creationId = com.adobe.ag.library.collection.published
              genealogy = /6603753/6603758
             imageCount =
    isDefaultCollection =
                   name = My Girls
                 parent = 603753
           publishedUrl = http://gbarr.500px.com/my_girls
    remoteCollectionId = 34451.0
             systemOnly = 0.0
    See how the publishedUrl and remoteCollectionId both got changed for thr facebook collection
    Later in December I did a software update of Lightroom to the latest but at the time of adding the 500px published collection I would have been running the latest release at that time.
    Then on 2012-01-24 I attempted to publish to the facebook collection and it instead created the "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Photos" album. Looking at the first archived copy of Catalog.lrcat after that we can see the publishedUrl got changed
    sqlite> select * from AgLibraryPublishedCollection where id_local in (495048, 603758);
               id_local = 495048
             creationId = com.adobe.ag.library.collection.published
              genealogy = /6495013/6495048
             imageCount =
    isDefaultCollection =
                   name = My Girls
                 parent = 495013
           publishedUrl = http://www.facebook.com/hilda.zacarias
    remoteCollectionId = 34451.0
             systemOnly = 0.0
               id_local = 603758
             creationId = com.adobe.ag.library.collection.published
              genealogy = /6603753/6603758
             imageCount =
    isDefaultCollection =
                   name = My Girls
                 parent = 603753
           publishedUrl = http://gbarr.500px.com/my_girls
    remoteCollectionId = 34451.0
             systemOnly = 0.0
    It is probbaly no coincidence that the facebook profile id of Hilda is 34451
    http://www.facebook.com/34451 redirects to http://www.facebook.com/hilda.zacarias
    So that probably explains where the URL came from
    But it seems there may be a bug creating collections of the same name on different publishers.
    I used the sqlite3 command line tool to fix the values of publishedUrl and remoteCollectionId back to what they were on 2011-11-27 and now it publishes to the correct facebook album.

  • I'll ask this again.  I'm running Yosemite, LR 4.4 everything was running fine and I'm not sure if this is connected but when I loaded the last security update from Apple I started getting the "no content" box when I tried to publish to LR (Facebook OK),

    I'll ask this again.  I'm running Yosemite, LR 4.4 everything was running fine and I'm not sure if this is connected but when I loaded the last security update from Apple I started getting the "no content" box when I tried to publish to Flickr (Facebook OK), now I can't get it to authorize, I loaded 3rd party JR plug in and still get can't authorize.  Can anybody help?  Basically LR is useless, it has been nothing but problems.

    It would probably be better to continue your previous thread on the same question than to start a new one.

  • Publishing photos on Facebook

    I have done this so many times before without a problem and as it is so simple you would wonder why I have a problem!
    I tried publishing photos to Facebook this evening but the "publish" button is greyed out so I am unable to.
    Now - is it an iPhoto problem or a FB problem.
    What can I do?

  • I am currently using Firefox Version 1.5.0.12 on my iBook G4 with Mac OS X Version 10.3.9. I have problems using Facebook. What can I do?

    I am currently using Firefox Version 1.5.0.12 on my iBook G4 with Mac OS X Version 10.3.9. I have problems using Facebook. I cannot confirm friend requests or view messages in the inbox for instance. What can I do?
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://facebook.com

    Firefox 2.0.0.20 is the last ever release for Mac OSX 10.3.9 and earlier versions, but that may not work any better because some large websites are blocking those older browsers or dropping support for older browsers like IE6 & earlier, and Firefox 2 & earlier due to security issues.
    Using Safari on those websites ''(not enough total users for websites to be concerned about)'', or installing a new version of MacOSX are two solutions; or getting a new computer.

  • Publishing Problems - a Solution?

    For a long time I'd sympathised with all you people who'd been having publishing nightmares, even though I've been updating pretty much error free since iWeb 1.0
    Then last night after updating my blogs and making a few changes, I finally got the dreaded error messages. Tried a few times, got frustrated, and decided to sleep on it.
    Same this morning ... grrr ... but then I noticed that my iDisk had failed on auto-synchronisation.
    I'd only mounted my iDisk recently to amend my Podcast feed, so on a hunch I unmounted iDisk, rehit the Publish button in iWeb, and holy shmoly – it worked straight off!
    I reckon that publishing iWeb kicks off the iDisk auto-sync, and then you've got a conflict with iDisk and .Mac trying to outsync each other.
    Anybody else found this? if this solves publishing problems for a few of you then great. If it works for a lot of you, even better. If the majority of you get sorted, then that's a revelation!

    My message to Apple stated:
    "My pages go through the "create" process then start
    on the "publishing" process then come back with an
    error message that tells me to check my internet
    connection (which is fine at 2 different locations. I
    spent 13 hours fighting this yesterday. It has
    created a major problem for me -- and this just after
    I paid an extra hundred dollars to upgrade my
    broadband. Your telephone people tell me you're
    working on this. Please advise when it will be fixed
    so I don't waste another 13 hours today."
    Regards,
    Richard M.
    Richard, thank you for writing this. I would like to know how this all shakes out, and I am glad that it is an Apple server problem and not mine.
    Meanwhile, I want to say how helpful it is to have this iWeb forum, and also thank the very generous and thoughtful souls who take the time to help beyond what normally would be expected. Those people know who they are, but I also am grateful to everyone.
    For example, I was greatly relieved to read that I was not the only person getting Network Failure messages, since it meant that probably I was not working with a defective application -- one that started out fine but somehow went south on me and would not be replaced by Apple. This may seem a trifling thing to some, but when you are in a spot that you perceive as Hot, assurance from the outside is very much appreciated.
    I hope that when you all finish your websites, you post the URL so we can all see it; after all, in a sense we are all comrades in arms (because sometimes it can seem like a war, due to the Fear Factor) and our fates are somehow connected even though we are all so-called strangers.

  • Unexpected Publishing Problems

    I have been using iWeb for almost two months with no publishing problems. I publish to a folder then ftp it to my yahoo server. However, last night I began to experience publishing problems. iWeb publishes just the first five pages of my site then I get a message that an unexpected error occurred. No other clues as to why it could be happening.
    The last change I made was an adding a podcast. I deleted that podcast thinking that maybe iWeb didn't like the taste of it and tried to publish but it still won't work. I've tried about 10 times, with my screen saver turned off, battery charger plugged in, and no other apps running.
    Please help me!

    G4 17 inch Powerbook   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Here's the latest...
    I realized that iWeb stopped publishing at the same page (I have 30+ pages on my site. It would always stop at the fifth one). So, I rearranged the order of that page, dragging it down to the very bottom of my site list. When I went to publish to folder, iWeb published everything then stopped again at that specific page. So here I thought I had isolated the issue.
    I created a new site and dragged the problematic page into it. I then created a brand new page in my main site and copy/pasted the old content into it. Ergo: a whole new page. I went to publish with iWeb cranking along nicely until it got to the NEW version of that page and then it crapped out. Again.
    I am guessing that one of the images (or who knows what, really) is messing with iWeb's fragile ego. I am going to reconstruct the page with brand new copies of the images that were on it. Images, by the way, that published fine for almost a month and that I didn't alter at all.
    Wish me luck all. I'll keep you posted.

  • I'm having problems with facebook notifications.  The sound doesn't work but shows up in banner.  Any suggestions?  I've tried everything but restoring.  Is it a phone problem or an app problem?

    I am having a problem with facebook notifications.  The sound doesn't work but appears as a banner.  I've tried everything but restoring the phone.  Is this a phone problem or an app problem?  Has anybody experienced this problem and were they able to correct it? 

    1) This is because of software version 1.1. See this
    thread for some options as to how to go back to 1.0,
    which will correct the problem...
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=3754
    59&tstart=0
    2) This tends to happen after videos. Give the iPod a
    minute or two to readjust. It should now be more
    accurate.
    3) This?
    iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation
    point
    4) Restore the iPod
    5) Try these...
    iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo and Will Not Start
    Up
    iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo
    I think 3,4, and 5 are related. Try the options I
    posted for each one.
    btabz
    I just noticed that one of the restore methods you posted was to put it into Disk Mode First rather than just use the resstore straight off, I Have tried that and seems to have solved the problem, If it has thank you. previously I have only tried just restoring it skipping this extra step. Hope my iPod stays healthy, if it doesnt its a warrenty job me thinks any way thanks again

  • Publish Problems

    Sometimes it works and most of the time it will not publish? What can I do?

    Oh my god I am not a lunatic idiot after all!
    I am currently in discussion with Apple Support for exactly the same problems as you guys, all I did was add a new video to my site. The first few times the update timed out as it was taking more than 30 minutes to upload (I am on broadband and the new page was only 7 meg). Then I got the ".Mac servers were busy please try later" message, then I got the "check your isp.." gubbins. Then when I tried again it said the update was successful but when I visited the site (via a number of different computers and networks) I either could not access the site at all, or it partly loaded, or the welcome page loaded correctly but when going to other pages I got nothing!
    I am currently waiting for Apple Support to " get back to me"

  • Problem loading Facebook in Safari

    I'm having a problem with Facebook and Safari. I think it's a network related issue, but cant understand why it would be. Im at university halls connected via Ethernet.
    The webpage misses out backgrounds, buttons and everything graphical on the facebook site, instead loading what looks like a very simplified HTML plain text version of Facebook with everything presented in a single list.
    Can anyone help?

    Back up all data.
    Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
              8.8.8.8
              8.8.4.4
    That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
    In Safari, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
    Notes:
    1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the  Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself. Remember that you must click Apply in order for any changes to take effect.
    2. I don't use Google DNS myself, though I have tested it, and I'm not recommending it or any other DNS provider; the server addresses are offered merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist.
