Web gallery access

I have an iWeb composed website in which I have inserted a link to an iPhoto generated web gallery. How can I make that link specific to just the gallery relevant to the website? Currently the "My Gallery" button gives users access to all my galleries of photos. I don't care what they look at. But it is confusing to visitors to my website to see galleries of unrelated photos intended for other people.
Website:
www.runningforhumanity.org
The link is on the M. Jayanth Reddy page.
I have made that link specific to the relevant gallery. But the My Gallery button gives everyone access to everything. I want other galleries to be accessible to different groups of people.
Thanks for any help anyone can offer

How can I make that link specific to just the gallery relevant to the website?
You can't. All you can do is password protect each of the galleries if that will work for you. Otherwise, create separate sites with a photo page in iWeb with the photos used in the galleries and publish them. You can give the URL to the different sites to those you want to access the sites.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Problems Managing User Access Rights for Web Gallery

Has anyone else had issues changing the user access rights for a web gallery? It seems like the access is everyone or no one. Are the user rights handled per event in the gallery? I had issues adding events to the user's view/download rights in the publish settings.
Also, can these settings only be set when an event is first published? Attempting to change the user access rights after the event is published seems to require a re-upload of the images.
Any thoughts?

Problem solved.
I had to put the following lines in the specified "0000_any_80.my.website.conf" file:
 <Directory "/Library/WebServer/subdomain.domain">
 Options All +MultiViews -ExecCGI -Indexes -Includes
 AllowOverride None
 # For Password protection
 AuthType Digest
 AuthName "Password Protection"
 require valid-user
 <IfModule mod_dav.c>

Can't access .mac Web gallery on iPod touch

Hi.
I cannot access any .mac web gallery using Safari on my iPod touch.
I just get a blank page, with /iphone/ in the URL.
I find it annoying, since .mac web gallery is heavily advertised as working with iPhone, and I thought Safari was the same on iPhone and iPod touch.
Tested it with my web gallery http://gallery.mac.com/jcolas as well as Apple's sample gallery : http://gallery.mac.com/emily_parker
Anyone has a hint ?
Jérôme.

I can see your gallery on my Touch.
It's a list of:
Family reunion
School garden
Becky's birthday
etc.
It shows up as a list and then you click the list to get thumbs of all the pix, which of course you can enlarge.
Can you get that far?

How to access a .Mac Web Gallery

What is the syntax you enter in AppleTV for accessing a .Mac Web Gallery? Part of the Ad says "free content from the Internet on your widescreen TV. Not to mention your photos (and your friends’ photos) from Flickr or .Mac Web Galleries."
Watch your .Mac Web Gallery photos. How? My AppleTV did not come with a manual or a note stating a web address to go to for more information. Please help. Thanks

I was doing that, but nothing was showing up. Then I thought after I posted the message in the forum, about security. I have folders (along with other people) that require a password to get in. I tested this theory out by placing some sample pictures in the main area and I see them. When others invite me to see secured pictures in their folder, why can I only see them when I'm on my computer and not on the AppleTV. I don't want to download them to take up space on my computer to see them on the TV. Is there a way to see secured pictures or is this another shortfall of AppleTV?

Accessing .mac web gallery from Apple TV-2

Do you have to enter the whole url to access a .mac web gallery? if not, how much has to be entered?
The Apple TV cries out for a keyboard to enter passwords, etc.

Ok, which part after which /?
I have a web gallery called saw1
When I access that gallery on the web, it comes up as:
http://gallery.mac.com/seanwalmsley#100115
However, when I enter saw1, that doesn't work. Nor does seanwalmsley#100115 or even seanwalmsley/saw1
Any ideas?

Can't access password protected .Mac Web Gallery

Safari is my primary browser. I have been creating web galleries using iLife '08 and my .Mac account and then viewing them with Safari for the past month or so with no trouble. This weekend I tried creating a password protected web gallery and it won't load in Safari. The gear icon just spins forever and has timed out when I have left it alone long enough. My other web galleries continue to load just fine. Clicking on the link from within iPhoto for my password protected gallery doesn't work, typing the url into Safari doesn't work, going to my gallery index and clicking on the icon of the "locked" gallery doesn't work, etc. I can still view all of my other web galleries, but this one that I'm trying to protect just won't load.
This actually appears to be a Safari problem. I don't get a dialog asking for User Name and Password. The url works just fine using Firefox on my Mac, and it also works on a PC running Windows XP. When using something other than Safari, I get the prompt for User Name and Password that I would expect. Upon entering that information, everything looks normal and works just fine.
Tsk tsk Apple! Safari shouldn't be having trouble displaying protected .Mac web galleries. Sheesh!

Just wanted to let you know that I have the EXACT SAME problem, except it is affecting my password protected iWeb site and my Gallery. I can view it from Firefox, so that is the web browser I am using now. I sent a bug report to Apple, and I also send them a request for help using e-mail, but so far I have gotten no response. Hopefully someone is working on the fix?

Link To Web Gallery doesn't work

I created a password protected web gallery in Aperture, but when it has completed uploading, the URL to the gallery doesn't work, it never loads in Safari. When I go to My Gallery home page I see the icon for the gallery with the lock as it should be but when I click on it, I get the message " that access for this gallery is restricted and to contact the owner of the gallery" instead of asking me for the password.
If a gallery is not password protected it shows up just fine. Am I missing something? Why doesn't the url for a password protected gallery work.

Just as a note, it works fine in Firefox. It seems to be an issue with Safari and .Mac.

Web gallery not showing up

Doing something stupid, I'm sure. I have successfully uploaded to my .mac Web gallery before and have several pix/albums in there. This time, I set a password and restricted it to just me for viewing/downloading/adding to this particular album.
I can't ever see it from my .mac login page, the one with the left-hand nav bar to web gallery, iDisk, mail, etc.
I re-sent the whole album, and sent myself an e-mail to announce it, just to see if a hyperlink from the e-mail would work, and lo and behold, the private album is online. I just can't get to it any other way than from that e-mail link. Wondering what I did wrong.

Kren - probably better to post this in the iPhoto '08 forum - http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1192
launch iPhoto and click on the gallery in the source pane to the left - at the bottom of the window there is a gear (settings) icon - click on it and I expect you will find that you have chosen to hide the gallery - un-click that and sync and you should see it - as long as it is hidden you can only access it if you know the url (Logical )

Web gallery images not showing in Firefox

I have just created a web gallery in Adobe Bridge CS4. I had it working perfectly in all browsers and now all of a sudden the images are not showing up in Firefox. Anyone else have this problem?

If images are missing then check that you do not block images from some domains.
*Press the F10 key or tap the Alt key to bring up the hidden Menu bar.
Check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
Check "Tools > Page Info > Media" for blocked images
*Select the first image link and use the cursor Down key to scroll through the list.
*If an image in the list is grayed and "Block Images from..." has a checkmark then remove this checkmark to unblock images from this domain.
Make sure that you do not block (third-party) images, the permissions.default.image pref on the about:config page should be 1.
Make sure that you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the Windows/Mac Accessibility settings.
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own colors.
*Edit > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"
Note that these settings affect background images.

There are extensions like Adblock Plus (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images and other content.

Web gallery: Multiple pages depending on browser

I'm using iPhoto to post a stand alone gallery of 62 pictures for a client to review my photos. I've noticed depending on the web browser, the gallery might divide up my pictures over several pages--which can be confusing with the tiny buttons to move between pages.
Is there any way to force all pictures in a gallery to show on one page? That would be a much better experience in this case. Also, can you edit the settings of a gallery after it has been posted (Aperture 2.0 does this now)? Thanks! --Jeff
Example of Web Gallery with 62 photos:
*Safari 3: All 62 on one page
*Firefox 2: 62 pictures divided over 2 pages
*Explorer 6: divided over 3 pages (25/25/12)

Is there any way to force all pictures in a gallery to show on one page
No - web galleries are a consume level feature and you have limited control of the display - to make suggestions to Apple re improvements iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
Also, can you edit the settings of a gallery after it has been posted
Yes - in iPhoto select the web gallery and click on the gear icon in the toolbar - a setting window comes up that gives you access to the limited setting that you control

Web Gallery Not Viewed in Source List

I just created a web gallery with no problems and it is viewable on dot mac but now I cannot see it in the source list on the left hand side of the iPhoto page. It does appear momentarily when I do a manual check for changes in the Web Gallery preferences but then it disappears and is not visible. I would like to make some changes but cannot see or access the gallery in iPhoto. Any tips?
Bill
I am using iPhoto '08, version 7.1.1

I've been having the same problem, can't figure out how to fix it. If I go under Preferences/Web Gallery in iPhoto, the gallery is still there in the list, but it will only allow me to pick there "Stop publishing." I can't refresh it back into my iPhoto web gallery list.

Web gallery compression/encoding in iMovie '06

I have iLife '08 on a pre-intel mac so I don't have access to iMovie '08. I'm using the web gallery feature of .mac for my movies with less than stellar results.
Here is my workflow:
1. Create my movie in iMovie '06
2. Export as a QT web streaming-medium file.
3. Import above file into iPhoto '06
4. Share movie to .mac web gallery via iPhoto
You can only get content into your web gallery thru iPhoto or iMovie which is why I have to go this route. The problem is, the compression/encoding via iMovie allows the viewer a choice of small/medium/large movie, with the large selection (supposedly) DVD quality. I obviously offer only one fixed steam at the present.
My question is this, does anyone know the settings in QT pro I can use to achieve the same result as iMovie '08?

no, there is no dialog box. When you select "import to library" iPhoto simply imports the movie file. From there, you can share it to your .mac gallery.
Also, I don't want to strip out the other sizes. I want to include them.

Movies in Web Gallery

iPhoto or .Mac for web gallery questions? I'll try here:
Running iPhoto 7.01 and uploaded a web gallery of my niece's wedding. My camera takes QT movies as well and allows you to select movies and even sends a thumbnail with a movie icon on it. But when try and play them you get an generic 'QuickTime is unable to play this movie. Please try again.' and the Gallery entry in iphoto has one of the triangle '!' signs after it as if it ran into problems.
So is it:
a bug in delivery and Gallery doesn't really support QT movies (and should warn you if some are selected or just ignore them)
it only supports certain types of QT movies (though I don't think they got sent)
Or some other problem? No mention of movies that are supported by iPhoto in the database in any Gallery help or notice I can find.

Why is this thread marked as 'Answered?' Is the 'solution' that, while iPhoto 'seems' to be able to upload videos it lists and plays to Web Gallery, videos don't play.
Is that the answer? Has anyone been able to have videos uploaded to a web gallery via iPhoto actually run in a Web Gallery. If so, which format was it in?
(ANSWER/Workaround below.)
For me, My camera's MPEG1 Muxed, 640 x 480 pixels movies are copied to and list fine in iPhoto and are listed with an icon in a Web Gallery, but throws up an error message.
Movies exported to finder by iMovie 08 (.m4v, mpeg4 using H.264) is not even accepted as a valid format by iPhoto, so I can't say if it will run in the Web Gallery. Likewise, exporting a movie to the Media Browser does little, as iPhoto can't access the Media Browser. (Is that true? Am I missing something?)
Video encoded as MPEG4 Decompressor (libavcodec), 640 x 480, Millions AAC, Stereo (L R), 44.100 kHz (.mp4) is accepted as a valid format and is uploaded to the Web Gallery. It is also played in Web Gallery.
So, Non-H.264 compressed mpeg4 movie clips will play in Web Gallery.
