How can I change the order of photos in iPhoto so I can create the slide show I want?

How to change the order of photos in iPhoto on my iPad, so I can create the slide show I want.

Here's what I did to generate a slide show with Ken Burns effect on the iPad...with the exact same slide order I created on the iMac.  I have iOS 5.5 and iPhoto App on New iPad, and iPhoto 11 on iMac.
In iPhoto for the Mac, create a new Album and give it the name of your Slide Show. Drag or import the photos you want into the album.  Rearrange the order of the album photos as desired. Do this by selecting Manual Sort under View/Sort Photos or simply start dragging thumbnails to the places you want them (the sort method will automatically change to Manual). 
When you have the order you want, shut down iPhoto on the Mac to make sure iPhoto's database gets updated with the new photos and their order. 
Restart iPhoto and go to File/Export on the top menu.  Select File Export at the top left of the Export window. Set JPEG quality to Max, Size to Full Size, and File Name to Album Name and Number.  Set Subfolder Format to None.
Click Export to bring up what looks like the Finder.  Create an empty folder on your hard drive under Pictures and give it the name of your slide show. Click on the new folder and then click OK at the bottom right of the Finder-like window.  The new folder will contain JPEG files with file names in the form, Album Name - 001.jpeg, Album Name - 002.jpeg, etc.  There will also be an iPOD Photo Cache folder.  Click at the top of the Name column to order files by file name.  001 will be your first slide, 002 your second, etc.
Now start up iTunes. You are going to force the Mac to sync these new photos with the iPad.  Click on your iPad device in the list at the left.  Now click on the Photo button at top right. Make sure the Sync Photos check box at top is checked, then select Choose Folder... from the list at right.  In the Finder-like window that opens, select the folder where your slides are.  Make sure that All Folders is checked, then select Open at the bottom right.
Now click Sync at bottom right.  The slides will be copied to your iPad.  Both the Photos app and the iPhoto app will properly handle the slide order, and the Ken Burns effect is available using the iPhoto app.
I ran across this problem in preparing a Ken Burns slide show for a wedding.  Drove me nuts for a week why the order changes when syncing an iPhoto album from iMac to iPad.  But this worked and gave me several options.  I plan to use the digital AV adapter for iPad and show slides on a large screen TV using HDMI connection from iPad to TV.  TV essentially acts as an external monitor for the iPad.
Hope this helps!

  • How can we change an order quickly?

    Good day!
    As you know the order has a lot of items.
    We created the order for a month, for example, with 100 items. During the month another employee has created a lot of shipments from different items of the order.
    At the end of this month we need to change all required order quantities in the order items to delivered quantities. But if we do it manualy it will take plenty of time. How can we do it automatically?
    We can do "fast changing of" reason of rejection, delivery block, billing block, delivery date and others. What shall we do to change of Required quantities in the sales items to Delivered quantities fast?
    Thank you in advance,
    Aidar.

    Hi Aidar,
    You can do mass maintenance using transaction code "MASS".
    Use the object type BUS2032 - Sales orders - Execute.
    next, select the sales order item data -  table MASSVBAP and exectute.
    next, give your sales document number and make the required changes.
    This will allow you to make changes in objects such as sales orders, purchase orders, customer masters, vendor  masters etc. This transaction code will allow you to change multiple changes at a time.......in one or more sales orders.

  • How can I change the order of photos within an event?

    iPhoto o9 won't let me change the order of photos within a single event- really annoying! I tried to view photos then click manual sort- but when I look back at the event it is not in the right order. what's wrong? Or can I even do this?

    Yes you can do that - IF you go through and assign titles to every photo
    You also can change the date/time on photo and iPhoto will then sort them in the new order
    And you could assign unique key words to each photo such that the sort order is what you want and sort by key word
    But you can not change the order in the sense most people mean - grab a photo and move it to a new location in an event
    So yes you are right

  • How can I change the order of photos in albums on my iPad

    Hi everybody... When I place a folder with photos in it and sync it with iTunes on my iPad they are not in the order that I want to view them or play as a slideshow.  I've tried numbering the files in order, but that didn't work.  Is there away of doing this?

    When syncing folders the photos are ordered by capture date - the only way to alter the order (apart from using iPhoto or Aperture on a Mac) is to amend the photo's capture dates : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4221

  • Can I change the order of photos in Events

    I am in the process of scanning my old film photos so that I can put them into iPhoto. As I have no scanner I take them to Wal Mart and scan them onto a CD then import them into iPhoto at home. Because the CD holds the photos from a number of events I then distribute them to a number of different Event folders.
    Once I get all the photos into their correct Event folders I would like to rearrange their order. Using drag and drop, or cut and paste, simply leaves the photo in it's original location. If I use the 'Moving photos from one event to another' feature the moved photos will still go into the new Event folder in the same order as they were in the originating folder, regardless of what order I drag or paste them.
    The help menu has topics on how to change the order of photos in a slideshow, book or calender, but not an event. I could arrange the photos beforehand so that they are scanned in the order in which I want them to appear in Events, but with 500+ photos in completely random order it will be fairly time consuming. It also will not help with the disc of photos I have already made.
    So, to finally get to my question, does anybody know if there is a way to rearrange the order of photos within an Event folder?
    Rgds

    Events are strictly time based. If you put those photos in an album and in the order you want, you can set their date and time by using the PHotos->Batch Change->Date and set the date and time you want with the checkbox to add the time differential you'd like between photos. That will reorder them in the Event also.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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 or later), 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 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger 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.≤br>
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • How do I change the order of photos in ipad albums in ios 8 ?

    Open the album. Tap select. Hold your finger on the photo till it enlarges then slide it to it's new position. Tap done when you're finished.

  • How can I save the order of photos in albums? Even though I have set as album order they revert back

    How can I save the order of photos in albums in Elements 11? Even though I have set as album order they revert back to original order.

    Could you confirm that when you re-open the sorted album, the display order on the top bar just over the browsing space is still in 'album' order ? That order may have been changed to a date order. For me, I get the order of the last album I opened, not necessarily the 'album' order of the present album.

  • IPhoto 08: Change the order of photos in an event?

    Greetings,
    I can change the order of photos in an album, but cannot seem to figure out how to change the order of photos in an event. Any suggestions?
    Thank you for any help you can provide.

    Only way is to change the date and time of the photo (photo menu ==> adjust date and time)
    they can currently be manually moved - they stay in date-time sequence

  • When ordering enlarged photos from iPhoto, must I purchase them one at a time and pay a shipping fee for each and very one of them.  Sort of a ripoff but I can't figure how to purchase many and pay one shipping fee.

    You may have better luck posting in the iPhoto forum if no one on this forum is able to assist. I'm sure you are doing something wrong though.

  • How do I change system settings so that users are not required to enter the mac's admin pw in order to join a wifi network?

    how do I change system settings so that users are not required to enter the mac's admin pw in order to join a wifi network?
    Right now my macbook pro requires an admin password before connecting to a new wifi network. In other words when a user that is not an admin tries to connect to a new wifi network the pop up displays indicating that it is locked and an admin password is required.
    Is there a way to remove this restriction so that a non admin can connect to wifi without the mac's admin password.

    You can enable / disable this option in System Preferences:
    System Preferences > Network > Wi-Fi > Advanced > Wi-Fi tab > Require administrator authorization to: Change networks

  • How to reorganize order of photos in an album on iphone 4s. ios7.1.2.  When I synced photos from an album on my computer, the order of photos on my iphone was our of order.

    How can I reorganize the order of photos in an album on my iphone 4s, ios7.1.2.  When I synced an album from my computer to my iphone, the photos are not in the same order as on my computer.  I want the photos  in a particular order, not in the order I added them to my computer.

    I have one album of several that are synced from my computer that I needed to have in a specific order. I finally accomplished that by naming the photos alphabetically in the order I wanted them (I didn't have many and simply placed an "a" in front of the first, "b" in the second etc). I did this on the computer and then synced them again. Note that each time you sync via iTunes, the non-Camera Roll photos on the phone will be set to match the current iTunes selection/settings so you can repeat several times if needed before you get it right.

  • How can i change my order shipping address~

    I'm now being abroad , my family moved to NY from CA a few days ago ,but my order shipping adress was still my CA address ,how can i change my order shipping address except phonecall ,can someone please give me the apple serve Email which can chage my shipping address before Oct 8th when the product post~
    thx a lot!
    my email ad:[email protected]

    Have you tried to change your address with DHL? I think that will solve your problem if changing address with Apple is so hard, or too late at the moment.
    And I suggest you to call instead of sending emails, it's way more efficient. I know you are in China, but I don't see why you can't make a phone call from there.
    In addition, you can try track your DHL shipment via this service, http://dhl.trackingnumber.org/, it shows the location on a map.
