Is it possible to create an iPhoto slideshow with a menu for each child?

I want the DVD to open with three photos: Karen's, Lori's and Amy's.
When Karen clicks her photo, three more of her photos will appear: a baby photo, a school-age photo, and an adult photo. If she wants to watch a slideshow of her baby pictures, she will click the baby photo...
Each daughter will have a similar setup - three slideshows for each of them. I'm not very picky about which theme will do the job.
I have checked two books and the Apple tutorial and can't find a similar example.
This is only my second slideshow. Any help will be appreciated!
Flat Panel iMac (still love it) w/superdrive   Mac OS X (10.4.4)   iLife'06, 512 mb ram, 200 GB and 250 GB hard drives, wireless network

Yes this can be done.
First create the 9 slideshows you need in iPhoto......for each one, when finished use the "Send to iDVD" to create a QT movie of each slideshow......be sure to pick the music/playlist in iPhoto (unless you want to use iMovie for that and other things...). When iDVD opens, just close it without saving.
Then open iDVD and choose a menu. As an example, choose "Portfolio Color". Retitle it to "Daughters" or whatever you want.
Then click on the "+" sign at the lower left, and choose "add submenu" -do this two more times yo get three folders. Then click on the media button, and choose three photos to use as a button instead of the folder. Just drag each photo onto the folder. Rename each submenu to Karen, Lori and Amy. Click once on the text, wait, then click again and edit.
Then double click on one submenu. Drag in the correct three iPhoto movies you exported using the "Send to iDVD" command. By default, they go to your home directory in the Movies folder. You can also find them using the Media tab in iDVD and look for Movies.
Go back to the "Main" menu using the back arrow (double click on it).
Repeat for the other two submenus.
Hope this helps,

  • How can i create a multilingual website with a menu for each one?

    I have all the pages in spanish and the same pages in english ej. Contacto and Contact ...should be sister or child pages? I need two diferent menus (one for spanish pages master, another menu for the english pages master) but the menu feature mixes everything. Is there a solution to this?
    Thank you

    Hi Carme,
    It might be easier for you to set up your menus manually, so you can control what is the the Español and English menus, rather than fuss with child and sister pages.
    Click and drag out that menu widget that you want to work with > click > click on blue arrow > window opens > under "Menu Type" choose "Manual". Then you can manually enter the titles for and English Language menu. Get that working exactly as you want it to ( colours, roll-over etc ) When you're happy with that one, copy and paste a duplicate of that English menu. You can then go in and change all the English to Spanish. When these are done, then go through both menus and link the buttons to the appropriate language pages.
    This way, you don't have to worry about page higharchy, sisters, siblings or anything else. You have better control. It might also prove helpful in the fact that there have been issues in the past with pages navigating once uploaded to the web, who's page names consist of special character language markers like: ñöäãũ
    You may want to consider when naming your actual pages that the search engines will be using, ( i.e samplepagespanishpage.com* ) to omit these special characters. Sometimes they cause problems and the site won't work properly. However, if you manually do your menu names, these special characters can be used and it shouldn't cause an issue.
    * - If you check into the "Page Properties" under "Metadata" - "Page Name" is where you may want to consider omitting the special characters. "Page Title" I believe you can keep the special characters. This is the information that people would see in Google.
    I hope this helps.

  • Is it possible to publish an iPhoto slideshow with the music?

    Is it possible to publish a slideshow with music so others can hear the music as well as see the photos? Thanks. (I have a MobileMe account).

    An alternative method to put the slideshow up for others to view is to import the QT movie back into iPhoto and put it in a MobileMe gallery and publish.
    If the movie is large still another alternative is to import the movie into iMovie and share it from there to a MMe account where you can select multiple sizes so those with slower internet connections can choose a smaller version to play. The following screenshot is the export window from iMovie:
    Click to view full size
    *+NOTE: This screenshot is from the iLife 09 iMovie. I don't remember if the iLife 08 iMovie has the same export options.+*
    What you will get is this type of MMe gallery: iMovie 09 to MMe.
    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 versions) 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. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. 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.
    NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

  • Slideshow  with individual timing for each photo just does NOT work!

    i am in slideshow mode with all the jpegs on top
    i go to settings
    it has DEFAULT settings for the entire slideshow
    it does not say each photo gets its own timing.
    the arrows for the transition direction are greyed out
    am i the only one who cant get this?
    where does it say set a time for each individual photo
    at the end of my rope
    OT or anyone have you got a way to explain how to get individual timings for each jpeg in a slideshow ( source )

    yeah i got it working and it certainly can be done in iphoto
    there is so much arduous work one has to do to learn these i lives!!!!
    you first send it to DVD
    then it lands in iphoto
    and you can absolutely do what you said one cant cos i just did it.
    what a day all day long a learning curve for sure.

  • Is it possible to create a subscription page with different options for blog, newsletter, product announcements, training events, etc?

    I would like to create a subscription page for my Muse site with different subscription choices, but I am not sure if it is possible or, if it is how I should construct it. Any ideas?

    Hi
    This can be done from hosting platform end. If you are using Business Catalyst to host your site , then you can use events module, campaign subscriptions , secure zone subscriptions etc.
    You can create the events/announcements on BC end and then add the module in Muse page which on publish will show the modules on page.
    Thanks,

  • Will  an iPhoto slideshow with music work on all computers in China?

    I am making a promotional DVD for an education program in the US, and taking it to China to education fairs. If it is an iPhoto slideshow with music, will it work on all Chinese computers? I assume so, because since it is not video, I should not have to worry about different formats-right? I've got enough to worry about on this trip!
    Prof. Fisher

    On every single computer in China? Impossible to tell. But if you create a slideshow in iPhoto and send it to iDVD to be burned to a DVD then it will play on anything that plays DVD.

  • IPhoto slideshow with descriptions?

    How do I make an iPhoto slideshow with descriptions?

    This helped along with changing how I was creating the slideshow. My original approach was the select "new slideshow" from the File Menu and then drag individual images to the slideshow folder. This is what didn't work for me.
    I then tried selecting a bunch of images in an event then selected "new slideshow" from the File Menu, This resulted in a slideshow where I could shuffle the slide order in the image bar at the top. I don't know which step provided the solution, or whether it was the combination - I suspect the combination.
    Thanks for your interest and help - much appreciated.

  • Is it possible to create a editable pdf with validation(required field) using Adobe Acrobat pro version?

    Hi,
    the subject says it all. I have downloaded the trail version to see if its possible to create a editable pdf with validation(required field) using Adobe Acrobat pro version?
    Basically, I will have to create a pdf form where users fill it and send it back to me. there will be required fields (the textbox and check box) that user need to fill before saving the editable pdf?
    Is it possible. if so, can someone kind enough to point to me right directions?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for reply. What I am trying to achieve is to give an option for the user to download the pdf form and once the user tries to save the pdf, it validates with the required field. I managed to create the editable pdf with required fields option. I just need that validation to be done when user click on save file. How can I achieve this? thanks so much for your help.

  • Is it possible to create a customer master with different address

    Hi Gurus,
    Is it possible to create a customer master with different address as we maintain in SAP CRM.
    Kindly help me onthis issue \
    Regards
    Kannan

    Hi Kannan,
    There are no multiple addresses but you can use multiple unloading ponts for the same address for the ship to Party.
    So when you create a Sales order the system will give a pop up with the unloading points allowing you to select the desired one.
    I hope I understand your query correctly.

  • Is it possible to create a tagged pdf with apple pages?

    Not sure if possible and any tutorials would be appreciated.

    > Is it possible to create a tagged PDF with Apple Pages?
    Short answer: No, Apple chose at the introduction of Mac OS X to support only Adobe PDF 1.3 and those parts of Adobe PDF 1.4 that include device-independent transparency, but not those parts of Adobe PDF 1.4 that include Adobe XMP for XML markup of the page description program.
    Long answer: Adobe PostScript is a page description programming language, unlike Xerox Interpress which is a page and document description programming language. In other words, Adobe PostScript is a streaming or sequential rendering model that cannot simulate the behaviour of a bound book where the user can turn from any one page to any other page arbitrarily. Adobe introduced Acrobat Distiller in 1993 in order to convert Adobe PostScript page description programs into Adobe PDF page and document description programs that share the same fundamental functionality as Xerox Interpress.
    Conversion from Adobe PostScript to Adobe PDF buys one nothing but page-independent processing. Specifications published by Adobe in 1993 state how the SFNT Spline Font file format used by Apple and Microsoft for Unicode imaging has to be re-encoded into PostScript font program dictionary format (PostScript so-called simple fonts with less than 256 glyphs and PostScript so-called complex fonts (CID fonts) which are simple fonts tiled into a single superfont). All that is left is the glyph identifiers, and per Unicode Specification version 1.0 the glyph identifiers are private and font-dependent, so no character information can be inferred.
    ISO 19005:2005 PDF/A is a superset of ISO 15930:2002 PDF/X-3. The problem with ISO 15930:2002 PDF/X-3 is the same as above, that is, Adobe PostScript cannot encode the file format of the International Color Consortium, which has to be re-encoded to PostScript CSA Color Space Arrays and PostScript CRD Color Rendering Dictionaries. It is possible to encode the ICC file format directly in PDF 1.3 and higher, as specified in ISO 15930 and ISO 19005, but because PDF encodes only the glyph identifiers that are the output of the SFNT file format, and not the UCS Universal Character Set input and the settings for the feature selectors in the font file, ISO 19005:2005 has come under criticism for failing to support search in complex scripts.
    ISO 19005:2011 is supposed to address the shortcomings by saving the UCS input into the PDF itself, but in this case it is impossible to use Adobe PostScript and Adobe Acrobat Distiller as intermediates to Adobe PDF. So in order to drive ISO 19005:2011 Adobe would have to ditch Adobe Acrobat. I am not sure if there is software that implements ISO 19005:2011, but I noted that the Apple iBook Store does not accept PDF at all. Personally, I struggle to think of how to explain to endusers the overwhelming number of Adobe ISO PDF formats (there is PDF/E, PDF/UA and whatever else), and the overwhelming number of Adobe ISO PDF versions of these formats (there is ISO 19005:2005, ISO 19005:2011, ISO 15930 all the way back to 1999/2000 in God knows how many versions at this point).
    Best wishes,

  • Is it possible to create an inbound delivery with MB31

    Hi,
    I would like to know if it's possible to create an inbound delivery with transaction MB31. It's a requirement of the client that all goods that come into the warehouse (HU managed) get in with an inbound delivery.
    So, for the scenario of production (non HUM storage Location) to warehouse (HUM storage location) a transfer posting will be done with MB31, A inbound delivery must be created.
    I hope this is possible.
    Regards,
    Alexander

    Hi,
    You can use an STO to transport stock from production to your warehouse and you can use VL31N with reference to your STO to create an inbound delivery document.
    Thanks
