Uploading to Kodak Gallery

With iPhoto 08 I seem to be unable to upload my photos to Kodak Gallery. I used to be able to just drag them in. Also, what is the best way to e-mail photos in the library using gmail? I used to be able to just access the iPhoto library and pick the photos (in JPEG) form that I wanted to attach to my mail. Now I am unable to access the library at all. If anyone can help, I would really appreciate it.

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 a Cocoa based browser such as Safari you can drag pics from the iPhoto Window to the attach window in the Browser, or from a media browser (and you can make on of those in seconds using Automator)
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
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.

How to Upload to Kodak Gallery from 2.1.4

I currently export photos to a file and then upload to Kodak Gallery using their browse function. When I could use ofoto express I could drag and drop directly from Aperture. Is there anyway to copy directly to Kodak Gallery without having to export first?
Thanks
Rod

I will defer to Sierra Dragon, one of the strongest advocates of Referenced Masters on this forum, but I suspect that your upgrade would only engage about 32 GB of HD space.
I have always used a Managed Library because I like the import-and-forget security.
AP2 arranges each master, thumb, and preview into a single folder. AP3 rearranges things so that all of the masters are in one folder, thumbs another, and previews in another. This has the advantage of making it easier to find your masters, should you ever have to open the Package and look for them.
AP3 is very nice and, with at least 4 GB of RAM, tends to be very speedy. Were I thee, I would force a TM back up and then turn it off while you run the upgrade. Turn it back on only when you are sure that all is well.
If you search this forum for posts around the time that AP3 first came out, you will find that there was a list of cache and pref files that sometimes had to be deleted. I believe that subsequent versions of the AP3 incorporated this into the program as I have not heard of that trick being necessary for years.
In my case, I had a 150 GB Managed Master Library, so I copied it out on an external drive and ran the upgrade there. Once I was sure that it had worked (and it did, first time), I copied it back. As you might imagine, 150 GB over FW800 took some time, but I had three copies of my Library at all times.
A final note, if you are committed to using Referenced Masters (as I now am, having sprung for a SSD) remember that they are write once/read many. That is, they are NEVER rewritten once they are out on disk. I have mine on a dedicated 250 GB and it never fragments. Your Library, on the other hand, reads and writes all the time, keep it on your largest, fastest disk.
Best wishes.

Unable to install Kodak Gallery Upload Plug-in

I tried to download the Kodak Gallery Upload Plug-in, and keep getting an error when it comes to selecting a destination to install. My choices are Macintosh HD or Bootcamp, but the error message that comes up says "You cannot install KODAK Gallery Upload Plug-in on this volume. This plug-in requires that Apple's iPhoto application version 2 or higher be installed." My system has iPhoto 7.1.4. What am I doing wrong with this?

Finally, after several months and about thirty emails, online chats and providing feedback, Kodak Gallery said they would tell the iPhoto plug-in developer about my issue (error message: Kodak Gallery Services not available for this location). I was delighted today to find that the plug-in finally works (as the last person also noted)! Thanks all for your comments - it was good to know others were having the same problem.

Using iPhoto '11 with Kodak Gallery

I can't seem to get iPhoto '11 to export to Kodak Gallery. When I click "Export," nothing at all happens. Does anyone have any ideas?

I've emailed, called, chatted, etc. to Kodak and I get a mess of answers - none of them sound promising. If you can even get a rep who understands that iPhoto has a new version, all they tell you to do is uplaod using one of their other methods. I tried explaining that this solution doesn't work for people who have iPhoto set to leave the raw photo file alone and store the edits in a separate file. They had NO idea what this means. One of their reps actually told me I don't know how to use my computer and I should just learn how to use their uploader on the website then hung up on me. Kodak's support for i-anything has been lame. The last iPhoto plugin was from 2007 and their iphone app is about as old. Both were in dire need of upgrades/updates as it was. So, going forward, I'm using Flickr since they had their upload capability ready the day iPhoto 11 launched.
If anyone gets any updates on this plug in, please post.

Kodak Gallery (ofoto) and iPhoto 6

I am using iPhoto 6 on a relatively new imac with 3gigs RAM. My wife wants only to be able to use her photos in the way she used to on the PC, and we can't get the photo upload to work at Kodak Gallery, which is where she has years of photos already stored. Safari won't allot multiple selection while uploading via the browser, so I downloaded the Ofoto Express tool for the mac, but can't keep it from crashing. When I select 'Most recent Photos' it works as expected, but when I try to select my entire library it eventually crashes, or if I just chose 'last 12 months' it will also dump.
Can this problem be addressed or fixed? Have others had this problem?
I also read on the Kodak site that I should be able to send the photo directly from within iPhoto, but can't find where or how to do that.
Any help/comments would be greatly appreciated.
Mike

I understand, and that is where I started. i simply received a polite email that was borderline a form response with no usable information. One of those emails that is very frustrating, because the person clearly didn't even comprehend your situation and respond with something basically unrelated.
Then I turned here, since I have had good luck on the mac forums. I was really hoping to identify if others with big iPhoto libraries were having the same issues since this is a popular site (kodak).
Also, my problem is very consistent, which would indicate there is something that could be identified and altered to correct the problem.
Thanks for your response though.

How can I share photos w/ people for free like using snapfish/kodak gallery

Hello,
I am new to the world of mac and am having trouble with using i photo. I simply just want to share photos with family and friends like I easily did while using services such as snapfish or kodak gallery. Can this be done? I tried iweb and I'm confused. Also, if I can't do this from iphoto and want to continue using snapfish...if I try to upload photos form their website, it gives me two choices when I'm at iphoto...modified and original photos and I can't seem to have the photos I edited and the originals in one spot. Any help would be appreciated.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
1. Don't attempt to access files in the iPhoto Library Folder - it's a good way to damage your library.
2. Many sites have export plug-ins for iPhoto that will allow you to upload to them directly from within the iPhoto Window - check on the sites you prefer for more information. But, for example, Snapfish has information here:
http://www1.snapfish.co.uk/helpuploading#quickuploadmac
or you can use an application like PictureSync.
Other than that: There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
To upload to a 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
Other options include:
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.

I am accessing kodak gallery via photoshop. I live in the UK. My photoshop album gets uploaded to Kodak in the US as a default. When i change my location at the top right of the screen to UK, i lose my album. Any ideas how i can make the UK my default without losing photos.

In Photoshop Elements, you need to change your services location to UK.
In Preferences, select Adobe Partner Services. Click the Choose Location button and pick the UK.
Then, uploads will go to Kodak UK, and will be there when you select the UK kodak website.

Kodak Gallery Help

Hi. I just upgraded to Ilife 09. After i upload say 100 pics, ill delete 50 by hitting the delete button. Then to add to Kodak Gallery, I drag/drop my iphoto event ( which says it now has 50 pics) and for some reason Kodak says, "uploading 100 photos." Anyway, why all of a sudden does it not just upload the 50 i kept, ye seems to upload everything including the ones ive deleted? thanks for the help

All iPhoto versions had to have its trash bin emptied via the iPHoto->Empty Trash menu option. Otherwise the files just gather in the Trash bin. If you delete a photo from an Album it's only deleted from that album, not the library.

Kodak Gallery Plugin and Iphoto 09

I did not find anything when searching... so my apologies if a similar thread exists elsewhere.
I have not been able to upload photos since upgrading from Iphoto 08 to 09. I used to use the Ofoto Express program to upload, but it ceased working after the upgrade.
I noticed today that an Iphoto plugin also exists, called the Kodak Gallery Plugin. I tried using that today, and in both cases, it is not uploading.
I am concerned that it may be a problem on my machine, as I also tried the Firefox Kodak extension, and it wouldn't accept the pictures I was dragging out of Iphoto 09 into it.
I have 10.5.7, Iphoto 09, Intel Mac Mini that is maxed out on RAM. I'm able to otherwise connect normally to the interweb via ethernet in Safari/FF/Itunes Store/etc.....
Any thoughts on how to fix?

TD, what you said is actually the crux of the problem- I attempted to troubleshoot with Kodak's online help earlier today, but their online chat knew nothing outside of "install. Doesn't work? Uninstall. Repeat". Their final bit of helpful advice was, and I quote, "You need to contact the Iphoto to fix it".
They had no idea when I mentioned that it seemed related to my upgrade from Iphoto 08 to 09......

Kodak Gallery iPhoto plug-in and iPhoto 6

Hi - Recently I downloaded an iPhoto plug-in from kodakgallery.com to more easily upload my photos to the Kodak Gallery website (now that Ofoto Express no longer works). When in iPhoto I select the photos I want to export, select file, select export, and select the kodak gallery tab. The next step is to link this with my kodak gallery account through the "set up" button. When I click the set up button I get the following pop-up window: "No Kodak Gallery Service. Kodak Gallery Service is not available for your location." I live in Rhode Island - is that the location they're referring to? Or is it the location in iPhoto? I have emailed & live chatted Kodak Customer service about this on several occasions, but they haven't had an explanation, and finally (today) said it's a problem with iPhoto. Any advice? Thank you!

Finally, after several months and about thirty emails, online chats and providing feedback, Kodak Gallery said they would tell the iPhoto plug-in developer about my issue (error message: Kodak Gallery Services not available for this location). I was delighted today to find that the plug-in finally works (as the last person also noted)! Thanks all for your comments - it was good to know others were having the same problem.

Kodak Gallery (Ofoto Express) Issues with iPhoto 8

Since uploading iPhoto 8 I haven't been able to get the application that I use for Kodak Gallery (Ofoto Express) to work at all. Anyone else having these issues? If so, do you know a solution or work around??

Ofoto Express is an old app (2004), and it looks like Kodak is not going to update it (not even to put Kodak's name on the app).
Ofoto Express looks for Albums, so it won't find the new iPhoto "events". Good news is that the last event you load is placed in iPhoto's "Recent" folder, which is a folder that Ofoto Express recognizes. So, in iPhoto, select the event that you want to upload to Kodak before loading Ofoto Express.

Iphoto and Kodak Gallery Plug in or Ofoto Express

I have read multiple iphoto threads about using other upload programs and I use Kodak Gallery.
Does anyone know what the difference is between using either the Kodak Gallery Iphoto Plug in or using the Ofoto Express software from Kodak?
Is one preferred over the other?

I figured out to just use the plug in to upload directly to kodak without having to export out of iphoto then upload with ofoto express.

CS4 and Kodak Gallery

In Bridge in CS2 it was possible to share photos with people in your mailing list by uploading the photos to the Kodak Gallery and all the designated people would get an email directing them to the album on Kodak's Easy Share site.
I don't know if that feature was carried into Bridge CS3, but it doesn't seem to be available in Bridge CS4.
Any feedback on this would be appreciated.
Thank you.
