ML Harris Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Is it possible to update one's keywords on an Apple mobile device like iPad or iPhone? Just tried to do it now and got an error message that Adobe Flash is required...which isn't supported by Apple . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariaJ Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Yes, you can download and use the Photon browser app (instead of Safari). It will allow you to work with flash on iOs. Maria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinS Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 The Puffin app has worked for me on an iPad2. At first the free version was restricted to certain hours; now it works 24/7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ML Harris Posted February 23, 2016 Author Share Posted February 23, 2016 Thanks, I'll give those a try today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Ashmore Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 I suspect, based on previous threads, that Alamy are working on changes to remove the use of Adobe Flash from their website meaning that we'll be able to use an iPad with just Safari to keyword images in the future.. here's hoping anyway!

ML Harris Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 Thanks again, I used the Photon browser today. Easy interface and fast enough on my rural DSL. It doesn't seem to support Select/Copy/Paste though, and I wasn't able to drag images for batch editing. So I agree with Matt & Ann: if Alamy wants to stay competitive with other outlets they need to make things easy for their contributors as well as their clients!

Richard Baker Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I've messed around with Photogene to add metadata and upload. Is anyone still using it? I'd quite like to upload some News during a trip next week. Rgds, Richard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've also messed with it but would like a way to upload some test images to check ftp etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacecadet Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 I'm sure MS would oblige with a test, if it's possible. Or you could just upload a duplicate batch that had already passed QC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Baker Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 The biggest issue I have with Photogene is that the exported files aren't large enough so can't at the moment consider sending even tests. The Tiffs come out a third of the size as via Photoshop and all the jpegs come out at 72dpi, even though I've selected Max resolution of 300. But at least I can now upload - not via Photogene, but using FTP Client Pro (£2.99 version which stores your ftp settings). Rgds, Richard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
