Adding new Slideshow themes to iPhoto 11

There are only 12 themes.
I like some but not entirely and feel limited.
For example, 'Vintage Prints' theme doesn't show in full color, only mono tone. And the b/w choice that is provides isn't really pure b/w. Mine shows a partially screened color image. I really like the theme but would like my photos in its full color.
A new color theme with the same background theme and transitions would be nice.
Another example is 'Shatter' , it only shows photos in landscape orientation. It would auto crop the top and bottom parts of a portrait oriented photo to fit the screen.
In all, the transitions are nice, but I wish there were some basic choices such as color. If they could provide it for 'Vintage Prints' I don't see why the others could not also have some basic color choices. For example, we could choose a blue, green, red, or b/w tint for 'Scapbook' instead of being stuck with a yellow tone.
So this led me to wonder if there are plug-ins or add-ons to the out of the box 12 themes.
If anyone know how to increase the choices, please share it with me. Thank you.
Mike

No, there are no add-on themes and the themes are fixed.
Alternatives to iPhoto's slideshow include:
iMovie, on every Mac sold.
Others, in order of price: PhotoPresenter  $29
PhotoToMovie  $49.95
PulpMotion  $129
FotoMagico $29 (Home version) ($149 Pro version, which includes PhotoPresenter)
Final Cut Pro X $299
It's difficult to compare these apps. They have differences in capability - some are driven off templates. some aren't. Some have a wider variety of transitions. Others will have excellent audio controls. It's worth checking them out to see what meets your needs. However, there is no doubt that Final Cut Pro X is the most capable app of them all. You get what you pay for.

  • Iphoto'11 new slideshow theme importing to Aperture3

    I'm using Aperture3(of course, i've upgraded it to ver 3.1.3).
    And i also finished to install iphoto'11.
    But I can't use iphoto'11's new slideshow themes(like places, origami...) on Aperture3.
    they are not in the list of slideshow themes.
    i know they are supposed to be added automatically when i install ilife'11.
    What's the problem on my mac?
    Plus, I'd installed ilife'11 with installation DVD. is it a cause?
    One more question. After installing ilife'11, there's still a purchase button on Mac app store.

    Hello Mazza,
    I would recommend rebuilding the iphoto library with this article:
    iPhoto 6 and later: Rebuilding the iPhoto library
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2638
    If your version of iPhoto is 9.3 or greater, follow the library first aid options at the bottom of the article.
    All the best,

  • Music with new slideshow feature in iphoto 6

    First of all where did the old feature of clicking play for a quick view of your pictures go? Secondly when I create a slideshow the music (itunes icon) won't let me select songs from my itunes if they are in a folder--if I click on recently added or even library --gone is the ability to then chose a song from that folder?
    any ideas?
    thanks

    It's been replaced with the Play button at the bottom
    of the Organize/thumbnail window. It allows you to
    play a slideshow, with the slideshow options, of any
    photos you've selected without creating a slideshow.
    It's the old quick play button on steroids.
    blockquote align="left">
    Part of my question has been answered. I just made my iphoto screen bigger and voila --podcasts and play button appear--so that is solved --thank you
    However I still can't select the song I want to play with a slideshow. If I'm in settings and I go to music and click on the library folder in the list it gives it doesn't then show me all of my songs? If i click play it will play the first song in my library?
    thanks for your time

  • Lost All Aperture Slideshow Themes

    I lost all my Aperture slideshow themes after upgrading to iLife '11. At first everything worked fine and I was able to access the existing and new slideshow themes in Aperture from the new iPhoto '11 upgrade (as advertised). Then it all broke. Now I have no slideshow themes (or functionality) in either Aperture or in iPhoto for that matter. I'm not sure the exact moment that this all happened but just noticed it when trying to edit a few existing slideshows. The structure and music is all there but the slideshows are blank because there are no themes at all, just blank. I repaired permissions and checked file structures, did routine maintenance. Nothing works. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

    Success!
    I'm documenting this in case anyone else encounters the same problem. There are three files that can be found in HD>Library>Application Support. These files are: iLife, iLifeMediaBrowser, and iLifeSlideshow. They somehow got corrupted in the upgrade process to Aperture 3.1 and/or iLife '11. The thing is that trashing the corrupted files in hopes that a clean reinstall will rebuild them does NOT WORK. It simply makes shared media unavailable to any of the apps. I had to restore the files from Time Machine from a previous state.
    This took an entire day of troubleshooting to figure out. I hope this helps avoid this for anyone else.

    Maybe there is a corrupt file that is shared by the two apps to manage slideshows? I've looked and looked, so far nothing works.

  • Slideshow image resizing when adding new images

    I am creating a series of slideshows on multiple pages. I created one slide show using the "basic" slideshow and resized it to the dimensions and settings I wanted. I have many pictures all of different proportion, therefore, I selected the "fill frame proportionally" so they would all fit the dimension I set. I wanted to use this first slideshow as a template for all of the rest. I added images to this first slideshow with no problems. All of my different sized images scaled or cropped to fit within the dimension I set. The problem comes in when I do two things: 1) When I add other images of different dimensions to this same slideshow gallery, they come smaller that the intended dimensions I set previous. I check the setting and it is still on "fill frame proportionally" similar to the first batch of pictures. 2) The second issue is when copy this slideshow as a template to other pages. When I try to replace or add to the slideshow gallery, the images come in cropped or smaller rather than filling the frame. Again, the settings are still the same from my very first slideshow that worked just as i intended.
    I could resize all the images to all the same dimensions using another program like photoshop, but that is another step that is very tedious and it would seem that it should be something built into Muse.
    Is there a way around this?. Am I doing something wrong? Or is this just one of those glitches that happens with Muse? I appreciate any help that I can get.
    Thanks!

    Hi, I got it to work like this:
    Using background colours in Photoshop so that all sizes are the same in pixels. Then manually adjusting thumbnails by double-clicking on them so that a red square appears.
    Cheers,

    Hi there Elsemiekagain,
    I had to fiddle around with my slide show to get it to work. That is, it worked at first, then went funky, and I had to fiddle. So much fiddling that I can't possibly know what actually made it start to work again.
    And to some degree, this is the way that I find Muse to be in general. That it requires finessing to get it to work as expected. This adds a good deal of time to every development project, though I am getting better at this with practice and experience.
    Most of it is not even things that could be easily put in words as instructions, as many are nanced. But in fairness, this version of Muse is a complete code re-write this year. So we do need to cut Adobe some slack, and give the team time to iron things out.

  • I have photos on my iphone 4 that i'm trying to transfer to iphoto.  The problem is when I plug the phone in, it only wants to transfer the new photos, not all.  How can I take all the photos off my phone and put them into iphoto?

    I have photos on my iphone 4 that i'm trying to transfer to iphoto.  The problem is when I plug the phone in, it only wants to transfer the new photos, not all.  How can I take all the photos off my phone and put them into iphoto? Even if there are duplicates, I'd like to make sure I get all the photos from my phone into iphoto.  Thanks

    To see all the photos on the phone, including photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, deselect the "Hide Photos Already Imported" checkbox. If the camera contains photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, those photos are hidden by default.

  • I have a new MacBook Pro with iPhoto installed.  I edit photos, mainly photo orientation via rotating, but when I go back to run a slideshow the changes weren't saved and the photo is back to vertical...please help...thanks

    I have a new MacBook Pro with Iphoto installed when purchased.  When editing a photo, primarily orientation changes, the slideshow initially displays the photos in proper orientation.  However, after leaving Iphoto and shutting down the computer, and then going back to run a slideshow the photo displays back to its' original orientation, that is, the edit-change was not saved.  Please help...the program information says all edit-changes are automatically save and therefore there is no save command, but my changes are not being saved...thank you for any suggestions...HM

    what version of iPhoto and of the OS?
    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

    I have 1000 photos on my iPhone in Photo Stream... all have already been added to iPhoto.  If I delete the photos in Photo Stream on my iPhone will I lose them on iPhoto??

    Its the first time ive used iphoto, hence the vast number of photos i needed to import. I was importing from my phone to my macbook iphoto, my son caught the usb connection during the time when iphoto was deleting from the phone, after it had apparently imported all of the photos but none of them are on iphoto and only 195 are still on my phone.
    The problem is not deleting them but finding them all?
    Sorry ive typed this in the wrong place now cant delete it - if anyone can help with my problem however i would appreciate it!

  • New to mac and iphoto, questions about photo structure & organization

    I bought a new Macbook Pro a couple of days ago and am still figuring things out. I wasn't displeased with windows...I just decided to try a mac anyway, So far, I adore it except for one thing, the pictures.
    I spent hours researching whether to download and use picasa 3 for mac or iphoto. I decided on picasa....and now I've changed my mind. (Mostly because I tried to take pictures of the moon tonight, and they looked great in camera, but Picasa could only pick up a black screen whearas iphoto actually saw and defined the moon- and with the editing software on the two, the picasa auto-edit looked like a picture that was created in microsoft paint, and iphoto came out with a beautifully contrasted photo).
    Now that I decided to use iphoto, I have been researching how to switch and still seem to have a lot of questions. (I've poked around numerous forums but have found conflicting answers on different sites).
    1) I organize my pictures by folders with the month and year. I know iphoto organizes events, which it seems to determine based on photo similarity. Will my photo structure still appear in finder -> pictures?
    2) Is it possible to stop iphoto from organizing my pictures and just trust me on what I want?
    3) All of my friends and family use PCs, and there is a chance that due to financial concerns, when I eventually replace my macbook pro (far in the future) I could switch to a pc. Does iphoto make transferring pictures more difficult? (If I understand correctly, it does not change the photo file, a jpeg is still a jpeg but I want to be sure)
    4) I do not want iphoto to duplicate all of the pictures already in my library....if I import from finder-users-pictures, will it simply use those, or duplicate all 150gb worth of pictures?
    5) Any other tips for someone completely new to macs and iphoto?
    6) This is very silly, but how do I uninstall picasa (I know how to uninstall on a windows but want to make sure I do things correctly on my mac!)
    Also, just a "bonus"- regarding events vs. files I create, will iphoto create events within the program but leave my file structure in the library it imports from alone? If I use finder to go to where I store my photos, will I still see my file structure regardless of what iphoto does?(Does that make sense? I'm having a hard time trying to describe it)
    I apologize if this question is foolish or misplaced- I did read many other posts but didn't see the answers I was looking for.

    Your questions are neither foolish nor misplaced.
    The first thing I strongly suggest is that you make a trial iPhoto Library. Import 100 or 200 pics and explore. Iphoto isn't right for everybody, and if you're going to use it you will need to rethink things a little.
    1) I organize my pictures by folders with the month and year. I know iphoto organizes events, which it seems to determine based on photo similarity. Will my photo structure still appear in finder -> pictures?
    A: Events are based entirely on Date and Time not on 'photo similarity' You can set the interval for what makes an Event in the iPhoto Preferences: iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> General Pane: Autosplit into Events... And select from the drop down menu.
    Will my photo structure still appear in finder -> pictures?
    Yes or no, depending... iPhoto can run as a Referenced or Managed Library. In the former case, yes you files will be visible in the Finder, in the latter case they won't.
    Note that Referenced or Managed refers +only to file storage+ It offers no extra functionality, it does nothing at all. App like iPhoto are your go-to app for your photos. If you use it, then you never access the photos via the Finder. Ever. It's always via iPhoto or the many, many hooks into the OS that it has.
    I'll detail more on Referenced v Managed below.
    2) Is it possible to stop iphoto from organizing my pictures and just trust me on what I want?
    I'm not sure what you mean by this. Iphoto does basic date and time organisation by default. You can change it, you can change the location of the photos in Events, merge them and then using the other tools available - Albums, Smart Albums, Faces, Places etc you can organise your photos whatever way you want.
    But what do you mean by pictures. There is a distinction between Photos - the image of your child holding his dog - and files: A Jpeg is just a file. Iphoto is designed for you to +forget about the jpeg+ and get on with the interesting bit: the pics of your younger and his pet.
    3) All of my friends and family use PCs, and there is a chance that due to financial concerns, when I eventually replace my macbook pro (far in the future) I could switch to a pc. Does iphoto make transferring pictures more difficult? (If I understand correctly, it does not change the photo file, a jpeg is still a jpeg but I want to be sure)
    A Jpeg is a Jpeg is a Jpeg. If you migrate to another app or an entire OS you can export the photos plus any and all metadata you've added to the Finder and move it on. (Caveat: You cannot export Faces. There is no agreed standard on any system for exchanging this info.)
    4) I do not want iphoto to duplicate all of the pictures already in my library....if I import from finder-users-pictures, will it simply use those, or duplicate all 150gb worth of pictures?
    It can do either. And this brings me back to the Referenced v Managed discussion above. By default, iPhoto will Manage the files, that is, it will copy them into the Library. You can choose not to, but I strongly recommend that you don't:
    *How to do it:*
    Simply go to iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Advanced and uncheck 'Copy Files to the iPhoto Library on Import'.
    *What Happens:*
    Now iPhoto will not copy the files, but rather simply reference them on your HD. To do this it will create an alias in the Originals Folder that points to your file. It will still create a thumbnail and, if you modify the pics, a Modified version within the iPhoto Library Folder.
    *Some things to consider:*
    1. Importing and deleting pics are more complex procedures. You have to to put the files where they will be stored before importing them. When you delete them you'll need to remove the files from the HD yourself.
    2. You cannot move or rename the files on your system or iPhoto will lose track of them on systems prior to 10.5 and iPhoto 08. Even with the later versions issues can still arise if you move the referenced files to new volumes or between volumes.
    3. Most importantly, migrating to a new disk or computer can be much more complex.
    4. Because iPhoto has no tools for managing Referenced Files, if, for some reason, the path to the photos changes then you could find yourself resolving aliases for +each photo in the Library+ one by one.
    My own opinion:
    I've yet to see a good reason to run iPhoto in referenced mode unless you're using two photo organisers
    If disk space is an issue, you can run an entire iPhoto Library from an external disk:
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    If you're concerned about accessing the files, There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    *For Users of 10.5 and later*
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    *For users of 10.4 and later* ...
    Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    *If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
    For users of 10.6 and later:
    You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and later:
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    *If you want to edit the photo in another application:*
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
    5) Any other tips for someone completely new to macs and iphoto?
    *To Push Home a point*
    For someone inexperienced with Macs and inexperienced with iPhoto I cannot stress enough that Managed Library is the way to go. I understand there is comfort in seeing all those folders. But inside the Library that's all there is: all those folders, stored so that an inexperienced user can't grub things up!
    The iPhoto Library Folder is a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves. Want to see inside?
    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Standard Warning: Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
    Now close that window and forget about it.
    So, once you've imported your photos to iPhoto in a Managed Library, the surplus duplicates are +your folders+. Of course, in time, trash them to get back the wasted disk space. But don't do it today or tomorrow. There's no hurry. When you feel confident that you understand how iPhoto is working and that's it's working for you, theat's the time to reclaim the space.
    I organize my pictures by folders with the month and year.
    If you want to duplicate your Folder Tree in iPhoto:
    Start at the bottom of the hierarchy and drag a folder of images to the Album Heading in iPhoto. The pics will be imported and an Album of the same name created.
    You can then create the Enclosing Folders in the iPhoto Window (File -> New Folder) and drag the Album to it. Folders can contain other Folders (Nested Folders) and Albums.
    However, is your folder system date based? Then this form of organisation is a bit pointless in iPhoto when Smart Albums or the Calendar tool (Click on the wee magnifying glass in the Search Box) mean you can find the photos taken on any day, month or year at a click. With Smart Albums it's easy to find photos from specific range - say, June 3 to August 25, 2009 etc.
    If your folder system is theme based - Xmas pics, Birthday pics etc, then you'll find Keywords are much more flexible, and can be used in conjunction with other criteria for making Smart Albums and searches.
    6) This is very silly, but how do I uninstall picasa (I know how to uninstall on a windows but want to make sure I do things correctly on my mac!)
    Drag the app to the trash and empty it.

  • Bridge is opening all of my RAW files as jpegs when I import them from iPhoto

    I have set my iPhoto preferences to send my RAW photos as RAW when using an external editor. If I only use ACR, this works fine, but if I want to use CS4 they are all coming over as jpegs and I then have to work w them as jpegs. I have PSE 8 . Do I have to do something before I open CS4 to have them come over in RAW format?

    Not Very familiar with iPhoto but I think you do confuse two approaches for
    your files. If you choose to work from iPhoto it takes the originals but
    when using Bridge it might be an exported version in jpeg.
    If you have PSE 8 with Bridge CS4 I would suggest you make a choice in
    workflow and use Bridge as starting point. You can import your Raw files in
    Bridge using Photodownloader (get photo's from Camera in Bridge) preferable
    use a card reader for this.
    And/or copy the older original Raw files to a new folder.
    You can find the originals that have been imported using iPhoto in the
    picture folder/iphoto library. Click on the icon and with right mouse click
    choose show package content. In this new window you will see a file called
    originals with subfolders. Inhere find the ones you want and copy them to a
    new folder from your choice (either in the picture folder or elsewhere, but
    obvious not in the package window for iPhoto, you won't see them after you
    closed the package content window...)
    Choose copy because in this way your iPhoto library and folder structure
    stays as it is.
    Now point Bridge to the folder with this copied files and let it cache the
    files first (takes some time).
    With this workflow you can manage your Raw files (rate, rename, adding
    metadata and keywords etc.) and develop them in ACR and PSE. If you do want
    to use the album structure from iPhoto you can choose to save your developed
    files either as jpeg or tiff and place them in iPhoto.
    It might be a better workaround because iPhoto is not the best application
    to handle and develop Raw files, you have a lot more options in Bridge and
    PSE
    I have set my iPhoto preferences to send my RAW photos as RAW when using an
    external editor. If I only use ACR, this works fine, but if I want to use CS4
    they are all coming over as jpegs and I then have to work w them as jpegs. I
    have PSE 8 . Do I have to do something before I open CS4 to have them come
    over in RAW format?

  • Lost slideshow capabilities in iphoto after upgrade. This is why I upgraded!!!!

    I have spent hours updating my entire system so that it will support iLife 11. All system updates are in place and now that I'm here to make a slideshow, I've lost all capability to do so. I cannot select on the "themes, music or settings" icons. They are clickable, but not going anywhere. I have also lost the "toolbar" that used to appear on the image to adjust these settings. I need to make a slideshow for my daughter this week. If anyone has any insight on what I need to do, that would be great. I've already reinstalled to see if that would help. Is the source library on the left supposed to be greyed out? I saw that it was, just want to be sure. Any insight would be appreciated - if not, I'm off to the genius bar to see if one of the genius's can figure this out.

    iPhoto has a new interface, but you can still start a New Slideshow from the File menu. Slideshow Thesemes, Music and Settings are displayed in the lower-right bar of the Slideshow window.
