Newbie having trouble creating a Slideshow with the Animation Panel.

I know it's a much more complicated/advanced way to create a slideshow. But, I know it can be done.
I will explain exactly what I do, the steps that I take. In my own newbie opinion, I think I'm just missing a step somewhere. Maybe I'm missing two or three steps. Hopefully somebody will be able to help me.
Thank you in advance, if you do help.
1.I open the program Adobe Bridge
2. Then I select all images in a folder, then I utilize the review mode & deselect the photos I do not want to use.
3. Then I open the selected images into Photoshop. (If you haven't already figured it out, I have Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended)
4. I clicked on Windows menu >arrange >Tile. That way all of my images are right there & ready for utilization. (At this point, none of the images have been  clicked on yet.)
5. Then I open the animation panel & create a white blank background for the first frame.
Here is where I run into the problem. I know how to add extra frames, that's easy enough.
I also know that when I add the extra frame, it makes a duplicate of the previous frame.
My problem is trying to get that extra frame to reflect the next image I would like to display in this little slideshow and so on and so forth for the next, maybe 20 images.
Then what I would like to do is randomize the transitions with things like dissolve, honeycomb, fade in & fade out. With other options if there are any.
I would like to create a fancy slideshow is all.
I have read all of the help manuals, all 600+ pages. This is how far I got. I even did a search in the Adobe community. Even those articles don't quite tell you how to do this. So, I probably could have done a lot more homework. But. I'm starting to get frustrated with it.
Hopefully someone here will be able to help me with this. Thank you Obi-Wan Kenobi in advance. :-)

Thank You Thank You Thank You JJ Mack!
That was exactly what I was looking for & it worked perfectly. :-)
I have one more question if you would be so kind to help me with.
I was wondering if there was a way to add transitions, i.e. dissolve, fading in & fading out, split, reveal, random bars, vortex stuff like that.
I was also wondering if there was a random option for this.
If I have to add them in manually, that's fine with me. It would be really nice to be able to add some different transitions between frames.
Once again, thank you in advance for your help.

  • Is it possible to create a slideshow with the theme "Places" ?

    Hello,
    I used to create slideshows with the theme "Places" in Iphoto and I can't find it in Photo.
    Is it still possible ?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    According to this page:
    http://www.apple.com/support/photoservices/product_specs/
    You’ll need to upgrade to at least v6 for a calendar.
    Cards and calendars are available only for users of versions of iPhoto 6 or later.

  • Newb help on creating photo slideshow with different music tracks

    I am interested in ultimately creating a DVD for a friend with pictures of their family. I would like to have different soundtracks play with fading in and out if possible; different effects on the transitions too (if possible). With iLife I know you could just use iDVD and play 1 track in the background. I would like to try iMovie.
    I couldn't find any support tutorials or information in Apple Support.
    Can anyone tell me or direct me to a place that would give the steps for a slide show, adding music, and exporting to DVD?
    Thanks.

    Can you enlighten me on this? and what program would you recommend for this?
    While this can be done totally in iMovie '08, my preference would be to add the audio using GarageBand.
    1) iMovie '08 strategy: In iMovie '08, simply create your video slideshow track first. Once satisfied with the video, titles, transitions, start adding your audio. Simply drag an audio file from the media browser or "drop import" a file from the Finder and "pin" it a your video clip. Once pinned to a video clip, adjust the "in" and "out" handles to select the exact portion of the music you want and adjust the fade in/out if necessary. When you have finished with this, slide the music to align it with the video track as desired. Now repeat theses steps to add the rest of your music.
    NOTE: I prefer pinning all of the music to video clips so I can control the overlap. (I.e., have one file fade out as another is fading in.) However, there is a problem if you want the music to start during a "title" segment which does not overlap the actual slideshow video. In this case you may wish to place the first music file in the background and use the "Trim Music" option to select the actual portion to play in the background since you cannot slide background music for alignment to the video.
    2) If you plan to use GarageBand, share/export your iMovie '08 video only project to your hard drive and then import it to a GarageBand Podcast project. In this case, each music file can be placed in a single audio track after appropriate trimming, or occupy its own audio track/alternate between two audio tracks to allow overlapping of files if desired. I prefer GarageBand since you can control the volume of individual tracks continuously, create custom fade contours, adjust track/master volumes as a whole independently, adjust the emphasis of frequency response ranges, "pan" the music, etc. as you mix and match your "musical collage" of sounds.

  • How can i create a slideshow with the newest version of dreamweaver?

    I am trying to figure out how to create a slideshow but i cannot find any explanations for the new version of Dreamweaver. Can anyone help?

    DW doesn't make slideshows.  You'll need to use a jQuery plugin or a 3rd party commercial Extension.
    Do a web search for:

    jQuery WOW Slider
    jQuery Fancybox2

  • Having  trouble creating a card with no photo on the interior

    Every year, I make a holiday card using iPhoto -- a photo on the front and text only on the inside.  This year, the holiday themes all seem to have some sort of interior photo that I don't want and can't get rid of.  There's no option in formatting for turning them into text pages.  Why can't I just make my simple text on the inside card this year.  I'm running iPhoto 9.5.1.  What's new that I'm missing?

    this year, the holiday themes all seem to have some sort of interior photo that I don't want and can't get rid of.
    Are you referring to the ornamental patterns on the inside of the card? Like the bells in the holiday bells theme?
    Try one of the other "seasons" themes, were the ornamental items are smaller, like "Snowflake".

  • Jsp newbie having trouble using JSP's with Jdev 10.1.3

    Hi,
    Have been bashing my head for about two hours with this, if anyone can help will substantially improve my life.
    First off apologies if question is stupid or obvious I am a jsp newbie.
    Have been experimenting with using the Jsp Taglibrary for tabbed panes in a browser.
    http://www.ditchnet.org/tabs/
    I have followed all the installation instructions but in JDeveloper when I build I get the message
    Error(18,2): method setJspContext(javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext) not found in class org.ditchnet.jsp.taglib.tabs.handler.TabConfigTag
    Any idea what jar file I'm missing.
    I'm a bit lost, thanks

    Arrrrrrrrgh,
    Sorted my problem.
    Rebuilt project, works fine now, no idea what was going on (just generally!).
    Thanks for input Shay

  • I'm having trouble taking a landscape with the Camera Fill Feature. What am I doing wrong?

    The application interface rotates to a landscape orientation automatically when using the Camera Fill feature, simply holding the phone itself in a horizontal orientation before entering the Camera Fill mode gives the most predictable results.

    Double check all your audio settings. 
    System Preferences --> Sound --> Input should be set to your audio interface.
    GB --> Preferences --> Audio/MIDI --> Input should be set to your audio interface.
    With your track selected, open the Track Info pane, and select the Edit tab.  Under input make sure that Mono 1 or 2 is selected (which number will depend on which input you plugged your bass cable into).

  • Having trouble creating noise source with PWL Source

    Hello,
    I am using a text file (attached) that has random values on the voltage collum, so I expected to obtain a noise source when I imported this file to my PWL source. Yet, all I see is a sawtooth kind of pattern. Could anyone help me create the noise source?

    noise.txt ‏2 KB

    Hello,
    Your file seems to be working, this is what I got:
    The problem I noticed in your file is the X colum (time). Your time step is 1 second; simulating the file could take hours unless you modifiy the maximum time step (TMAX) in Multisim. I better approach is to use miliseconds for the X colum. See the attached file (noiseMS.txt), I converted seconds to miliseconds. Not sure what your Multisim version is, but I'm also attaching my test circuit in v13.
    Hope this helps.

  • I recently purchased a new macbook and am having trouble syncing my iPhone with the iTunes. It won't allow me to delete any of the music on my phone, so I am unable to make room for the new software upgrade. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Does anyone know how to enable editing on a new computer? I only have an 8gb phone and over 4gbs of music, half of which I don't even listen to anymore. I really want it off my phone, but when I plugged it into my new macbook nothing would delete. My old computer barely turns on so I can't even plug it into the old one to delete anything. I hit the sync button on the new computer and that didn't help either. I'd really like to upgrade to the new software but don't have the room on my phone until this music/a few apps are deleted. Any help would be appreciated!!

    Here are two screen shots to show you what I am seeing.  The first screen shot shows it allowing me to select (highlighted in blue) my admin user (which is what I am locced in as).  The second screen shot shows it allowing me to select the "Guest" user (highlighted in blue).  However when I click on the user "Orion" nothing happens.  It will not change to highlight that user.

  • Slideshow with the active slide in the center at full opacity

    Hello all,
    I'm trying to create a slideshow with the active slide in the center at full opacity while the two photos on the sides aren't at full opacity (see link below).  Any idea if this can be done in Muse?

    Thank you.

    Have you sorted the photos manually? Then the instant slideshow will not work correctly. Create a regular slideshow.   File >  New Slideshow
