Password For Zta Albums
Azalee Rowling
Make albums private; create a group that has permissions to view those albums; create a user with password, make it generic so when logged in can't be changed; add that user to the group, ready. Add your own account to the group as well to be able to modify albums.
Thanks but I don't really get it.
You say create a user with password: so that means create a user registration, right?
I was wanting to avoid this and simply have a password to open the album but this seems rather impossible.
In such case I don't really need to create a group, what for?
Just a user with a password and without email address.
> that means create a user registration, right?
No. *You* as admin add one user and set its Status to Generic. Using the indirection of a group is not necessary but may ease things as you can add users to the group, but you can also directly assign the private albums' permissions to the user.
Yep, thanks for this but this extension WAS not working with previous version.
I updated today and everything works fine, without PHP errors.
Many thanks for your help, I'll take a tour then and mark this as resolved.
Thnx Larry bit isn't that crazy? So the pictures of my topless girlfriend are next to my daughter's birthday, for 'everyone' to see and when I look at/for pictures with my girlfriend we can stumble on ex-girfriends....
Thank you all. I just don't want my kids to see any topless pictures of my girlfriend and I don't want my girlfriend to see pictures of holidays with ex girlfriends. Nothing top secret, so I created some speciall albums with the pictures hidden. I still find it very strange that one can password protect almost everything and that this it not possible with pictures/albums which can contain very private stuff.
Ehhh Terence, I have an iMac, being used by everybody in my household. Same goes for the iPad. I find it strange not to be able to protect some files when I wish to do so. Notably with picures! I do not want to create an account for every family member. I want everything to be open and accessible BUT for maybe 20 pictures, that's all.
I'll put the photo's away. Still I find it frustrating that I want something and that it is just not possible. I don't want to look at it from a programmer's pov, that's what MS does and that's why I love Apple!
I always have this problem,irrelevant photoes mixed together and exposed to everyone who runs iphoto.and you should ALWAYS fear your privacy when someone wants to check a photo there.I'm not talking about naked pictures or ****,but there is no reason why we shouldn't be able to seperate and "hide" more personal photoes from normal photoes.doesn't make no sense.it's just a poorly designed software this iPhoto.it's funny how some people arrogantly defend such weakness and flaws of this annoying software.
If you're going to use an encrypted disk image create it first at a size that will allow the library to be placed in it some room for growth. Then when you get a new girlfriend and add more photos to it there will be room for them. ?
If you find the software annoying then why are you using it? The sensible thing would be to find an app that does what you want rather than one that annoys you. And when you find this photo app with selective encryption please post back and tell us all about it.
The Dropbox website at -protection clearly states that it is possible to password protect a folder in Dropbox, and has an animation on the page that seems to show this happening in a couple of simple steps. However, my version of Dropbox (the basic personal free version) looks nothing like that, and this Dropbox forum has a number of (possibly out of date) posts stating it's not possible to password protect a folder.
Can this be done, or do I need to look for a different product? The options I seem to have around sharing and security seem to have are very limited. Even in a free version, I'd expect to be able to add layers of good security!
Did this post not resolve your issue? If so please give us some more information so we can try and help - please remember we cannot see over your shoulder so be as descriptive as possible!
Thanks for coming back to me. Why doesn't my screen (even on the website) look like the one on the Dropbox page? It may have something to do with my free version, but I've looked on the Dropbox plans site and there's nothing that explicitly covers this. I'm not going to pay for upgrading and just hope it's the right version.
Thanks Mark - setting a password seems really basic security, and Dropbox isn't the solution I'm looking for if they are going to take the approach where I have to pay extra for it. Disappointing - I'll look for a solution to my underlying requirement elsewhere.
I would like to add a Folder under our corporate account. This folder will contain personal information on our employees therefore, I want this new Folder password protected, the entire folder not just a document in the folder. How do I do this?
Did this post help you? If so, give it a Like below to let us know.

Because you're logged into the account, and Dropbox knows it's you. If you want to test a link to see how it's received by someone other than you, you need to log out of Dropbox (or use an Incognito/private browsing session) in order to view the link as others would see it.
This is functionality that should just be included at folder level. Heck, the iOS version seems to have lost the generic passcode access feature. The instructions on -integrations/mobile/passcode-phone-tablet don't make sense anymore (for one thing, there is no gear icon). Hello Dropbox? Aaah to promote your fancy Dropbox Vault you again remove a free feature?
If someone temporary uses your device (very common on iPad and bit less on iPhone & co, but also not uncommon on a family computer)... you want to protect those files. Or at the very least introduce a 'prompt for password' feature.
O also... the gap between free and paid is way to wide. I would advise to add another pricing layer, 1 TB? I'm sure you already heard this before. Also it seems you don't understand that pricing has to be localized too. Different regions, different pricing related to purchase power etc. Steam understands that perfectly and seems to do just that for every publisher automatically if not looked at. Dropbox? The same USD price in USD everywhere... You would think a big player like Dropbox understands how this works.
For this to work, you'll need to be updated to at least iOS 16. Check out how to download and install the latest mobile software update to the iPhone. And you can also take a look at some of the best hidden features on iOS 16, as well as new major features like Live Activities.
To password-protect your photos and videos, first launch the Photos application and then find the photo or video you want to keep private. You can do this individually, for a single photo or video, or use the Select button at the top to select multiple photos and videos at once. Once your photos and videos are selected, tap the three-dot menu icon and hit Hide.
This will remove the photos and videos from your current library and transfer them over to the Hidden album (you can find it at the bottom of your albums, under Utilities). By default, the Hidden album is locked on iOS 16, so any photos and videos in that folder can only be viewed with your passcode or Touch/Face ID.
If you ever want to bring your Hidden album photos or videos back to your regular photo library, go into the Hidden album, select your photos and videos, tap the three-dot menu button and hit Unhide.
In the Photos app , you can delete photos and videos from your iPhone or hide them in the Hidden album. You can also recover photos you recently deleted. Photos you delete and hide are saved in the Hidden and Recently Deleted albums, which you unlock using Face ID, Touch ID, or your passcode.
Directly shared albums is the only way that works in the Adobe ecosystem and you can set it to only share to certain users. Portfolio also can be coaxed into allowing full res downloads. That said, you are far better off for your use case using other services such as Apple Photos or Google Photos to share images with family. They will realy appreciate it if you go through these services that they already know and that actually work well for this use case.
The thing is some family members do not have Apple Photos and some do not have Google Photos. And that would mean I have to manually export the photos from Lr to another app, and if I make updates to the collections or photos, these would not be synced, it looks like a pain to me. I was hoping for a natural Lr-based cloud solution since I'm paying for a cloud storage.
At this point, directly shared albums is the best option to my taste (simple link, anyone can access and view photos, and download if wished, in decent resolution) but I was hoping there was something even better. I loved the way you could hide pages on a portfolio and limit access with a password. It would have been great if I could have a gallery with different albums and access rights limited via password !
Honestly I don't know how you would get portfolio to allow full res downloads but I've read it is possible somehow. I have never used it myself as it seems so extremely limited. Shared albums with password is the way to go. You can limit the lightroom web galleries to specific people by instead of making the link public, clicking on the little +person icon at the right top, make the gallery invite only and adding specific people. You can't share a hierarchy of web albums this way though so you have to explicitly share each separately.
