Exporting to MobileMe
The easiest way to transfer files to the Internet is to have Aperture automatically copy
the files to your MobileMe account. With a few clicks, you can have Aperture open your
MobileMe account, transfer the files with links intact, and create the Internet addresses
that others need to use to access the pages.
To learn more about creating and setting up a MobileMe account, go to

With your MobileMe account set up, you can easily transfer your webpage or web
journal to your MobileMe account. The web address of your new MobileMe album
appears in the Publish Album dialog and in the web browser after the pages are
published. You can copy and send this address to clients so they can view the images.
To export your webpage or web journal to your MobileMe account:

In the Webpage Editor, click Publish to MobileMe.

In the dialog that appears, specify the following:
 Publish Album As: Enter a name for the webpage or web journal.

When you’re ready, click Publish.
All images are first exported to your local hard disk and then uploaded to your
MobileMe account. The upload process may take a while, depending on the number

upload process is complete, the Publish Complete dialog appears, listing the address of
your webpage.
