Any Mac Equivalent to "Pictures to EXE"?

Apologies for this weird question but I was given a rather garbled message that had been passed on from person to person!
Apparently a friend of a friend of a friend is wanting to do A/V with a Mac and wonders whether there is a similar program to the Windows app "Pictures to EXE".
I know absolutely nothing about it but promised to make enquiries.
Does anyone know what this app is and whether there is anything similar for the Mac?

Assuming that this person is referring to this
http://www.wnsoft.com/
(thanks google) then yes, there are many.
Alternatives to iPhoto's slideshow include:
iMovie, on every Mac sold, as is iDVD.
Others, in order of price:
PhotoPresenter $29
PhotoToMovie $49.95
PulpMotion $129
FotoMagico $29 (Home version) ($149 Pro version, which includes PhotoPresenter)
Final Cut Express $199
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 Express is the most capable app of them all. You get what you pay for.

    Then do so.
    Nothing special, beyond an intelligent human being, is required to make this happen.
    Read the User's Guide, it covers basic functionality of the device including syncing content from the computer to the device.
    FYI, marking your own question as "solved" without actually solving, will generally get you ignored.

  • Resolution of Samsung T220 monitor with Mac Mini (or any Mac)

    I'm looking at a Samsung T220 or T220HD paired with a Mac Mini, or more probably new Mac Mini to be announced in Jan, 2009. The maximum resolution for the T220 is 1680 x 1050. The Samsung manual states that the T220 usually supports all Macs, but to check the "Preset Timing Modes" to ensure Mac is supporte for this model.
    When checking the T220 user manual, the "Preset Timing Modes" section indicates only the following resolutions when connecting to a Mac:
    MAC, 640 x 480
    MAC, 832 x 624
    MAC, 1152 x 870
    Does this mean Mac owners can never get the maximum 1680 x 1050 resolution out of this and similar Samsung monitors, only 1152 x 870? If so, what's the point of investing in a good quality monitor that gives Macs only mediocre resolutions?
    Any Mac owners getting 1680 x 1050 out of their Samsung T220 or T220HD?

    Hi there
    I just got a new Mac Mini and a 32 inch Samsung LCD 450 series. I am not sure of max resolution but I know it's a 720p set. I have been impressed with the plug and play set up via a VGA cable. But, I can not seem to figure out how to get the max resolution set up either.
    The Mac display preferences only give me choices for standard monitor sizes that are not proportional to the Samsung screen, I have tired both 800 x 600 and the 1024 x 768 I have mixed and matched this with changing the picture proportions on the TV (16:9 vs 4:3). Things either seem stretched or overly square.
    Am I missing something here, Is there somewhere else I should be looking for settings to tweak?
    Any help or steering toward other resources would be most welcome.
    Thanks, Josh

  • OT: What's the Mac equivalent of Microsoft Paint?

    What's the Mac equivalent of Microsoft Paint?
    It used to be MacPaint, but isn't that long gone?
    Is it iLife? If so, in the specs I don't see any mention of
    basic paint functions although maybe it has them.
    Obviously I don't have a current Mac or I'd know the answer
    to this.

  • Is there a Mac equivalent to Windows "Print Screen"?

    I couldn't help but notice that my mac keyboard doesn't have a "Prt Scn" button the way a Windows Keyboard does. I ask this because sometimes as I play UT2004, I like to get screen caps of the game itself. I no longer have a PC and I wish to continue to get screen caps of the game. Is there a mac equivalent to this? Or what else can I do?
    PowerMac G5 Dual 1.8Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Well there is a screen capture in the game itself, I think it's one of the "F" keys. Look in the manual.
    On a Mac a full screen capture can be invoked with a Apple (Command) Shift 3. Of course you'll have to quit to see it if your in UT2004 full screen mode. I don't know where UT2004 dumps it's screen capture at. Possible both on the desktop (wallpaper) where it should go.
    There is also a Command Shift 4, which will give you a cross-hairs to select a part of the screen.
    Combining any of the above with Control will place it right in the clipboard for pasting in your favorite program that can display it.
    Here is a master list
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75459
    If you like UT2004 like I do, you know you can add a $hitload of maps and mods to what you get from the disks. I got a few hundred different maps myself.
    First what you have to do is visit the UT2004 site and download the latest Mac update with Editor's Choice Bonus Pack combination.
    It's kind of hard to find as it's not on some of the mirrored sites.
    This is the one you want ut2004-macpatch3369-2.dmg.bz2
    on this page
    http://www.3dgamers.com/games/unrealtourn2k4/downloads/
    Download and run this baby, you'll need the cd in at first but after that you won't need the cd anymore. You'll also get more maps and neat new vehicles.
    Of after that, register on this site especially use a Mac user type name, like MacHead, just to show support in the gaming world for our platform.
    http://www.unrealplayground.com/index.php
    and on the left side under UT2004 is a list of maps (CTF=Carry the flag etc etc.)
    find which one you like and download it. There are TONS
    Now to install it. Select the original UT2004 app in Applications folder and hold control key while clicking on it. A menu will popup which you select "open package contents" (the app is really a folder!)
    Now you unzip the download and place similar extension files in the respective folders. I would start off with .ut2 that goes into Maps folder.
    .usx goes into StaticMeshes folder
    .utx goes into Textures folder
    and so on, some downloads will include a text file so you put the correct files in the correct folders. (Like System for instance) Some downloads include their files in folders with the respective destination it's supposed to go into. Just take them out and place them in liked named ones in the UT2004 folder.
    UT2004 seems to place new maps/mods at the bottom of the list when you go to select them in the game itself.
    UT2004 will give days and days of repeated enjoyment, unlike other games that get worn-out once you've played them through.
    Also when you get a chance, learn how to clone that boot drive of yours to a external drive for safekeeping. It takes so long to start over from scratch rebuilding in case of a hard drive failure, corruption or whatnot.
    Cloning has to be done with software like Carbon Copy Cloner. Once you do it, you can hold option and boot directly off of it in case something goes wrong with your primary boot drive. Repair, recover or just erase and reverse clone the whole drive back over! It really is a lifesaver.

    You "Zero" a new drive by using Disk Utility, select the drive and Erase with Zero option and format HFS+. It's very highly recommended for the best reliable writes to your drive.
    If you have anymore questions, stop by again.

  • HT1212 any way to get pictures off a disabled iphone?

    My daughter's iphone4 is disabled after too many attempts to enter her password.  Before we reset it, is there any way to get pictures/videos off the phone first?  The phone has never been connected to iTunes.

    iTunes will not let you access the phone if it's in a locked state. It will pop up with a message telling you, you must enter the passcode on the phone
    Do you have a Mac or PC?
    On a Mac anyway, iPhones and iPads are different.  An iPad will lock you out as you describe, whereas an iPhone will let you sync, backup, and upload pictures without unlocking it.
    I just tested it and it worked fine.  Not long ago, we tested it the hard way when my son got a mild concussion, the only lasting effect of which was to make him forget his iPhone passcode (we theorize he had just reset it prior to the accident). 
    I don't know what happens on a PC.

  • Can't sign in using any 3rd party email client with my iCloud account on any Mac. Tried every settings, My iCloud only works with Mail.app

    Can't sign in using any 3rd party email client with my iCloud account on any Mac or any other Mac. My iCloud will only work with Mail.app. All the clients I tried work perfectly well as long as I sign in with somebody else's iCloud account. But mine won't work no matter the client (Postbox, Unibox, Airmail...) and no matter the computer.
    I can access my account on iCloud.com, but I can't use email clients without getting error messages prompting me to check my password or login.
    I was able to use those clients in the past but a couple of months ago I got logged out of Airmail and the issue started just like that!
    I tried every possible mail server settings including the following:
    IMAP information for the incoming mail server
    Server name: imap.mail.me.com
    SSL Required: Yes
    If you receive errors when using SSL, try using TLS instead.
    Port: 993
    Username: The name part of your iCloud email address (for example, emilyparker, not [email protected])
    Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP information for the outgoing mail server
    Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
    SSL Required: Yes
    If you receive errors when using SSL, try using TLS instead.
    Port: 587
    SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
    Username: Your full iCloud email address (for example, [email protected], not emilyparker)
    Password: Your iCloud password

    Those are the correct settings, and they work with any email client that supports Imap.
    Try again.

  • Ipod not recognized by any MAC computer

    I have a 20gb IPOD 2nd generation which has worked fine until recent itunes and tiger software upgrade. Now Finder nor utilities (ipod updater) nor itunes will recognize the ipod when connected with firewire-- even in disc mode. Ipod is not recognized by any MAC computer (several tried in Apple store). I ran diagnostics and everything checks out on the ipod. Please help.

    When I got a different charger later that night, my Ipod was charging but a message popped up saying "USB device not recognized".

  • Windows 7 machine can't see smb share or any macs

    We have 7 render boxes set up on our network, all link to our smb share on our mac server accept one! We run SMBUp on the mac server due to well documented issues with smb and it works fine with 6 of the 7 machines...
    I have gone through all settings and checked they match the settings on the other machines. As far as I can tell it matches.
    What's strange is the pc used to connect fine, but when we moved offices it just decided to stop seeing any macs on the network!!! It can see the other pc's on the network just not any mac or smb shares.
    Somebody please help before I smash this pc into a thousand pieces!!!!
    10.9.1 is installed on the mac server.
    Cheers

    My guess is that Win7 "recognized" the device as a Realtek and substituted the Realtek drivers for it. Did your Zonet come with an installation CD ... or provides a web support site? If either, I would strongly suggest, that you use their drivers instead ... and this is a good reason you're only getting access with the 802.11g mode.

  • Leopard cannot see hard drive on any Mac running Tiger.

    Running Leopard 10.5.2 on a Mac Pro 3GHz 4-core w/6GB RAM. I cannot connect to any hard drive / root directory on any Mac on my network running Tiger (10.4.9, .10 or .11) or OS9. Yes I have an Avid Meridian in the edit suite runing OS 9.2.2. No laughing please...
    I can connect to the User folder on any Mac running Tiger but not any hard drives on any Mac running Tiger from a Mac running Leopard. The hard drive cannot be accessed from a User folder even if an alias of the Tiger drive is placed in the ~/User/Public folder.
    The reverse works as usual. Any Mac running Tiger can see any hard drive on any networked Mac including Macs running Leopard.
    Has anyone else encountered this issue &/or found a workaround? I spent almost 2 hours with Apple Tech Support including a system specialist. They confirmed this behavior in Leopard connected to Tiger OS Macs. Hard drives can be seen between all Macs running Leopard. It was theorized by one of the Apple techs that the behavior was engineered to encourage upgrading all Macs to Leopard. BAD idea! I requested this be reported to Apple engineering.
    Tiger can see any drive on the network back to OS7. Leopard cannot see previous OS version hard drives.
    TIA for replies.

    I suggest that you repeat the external boot process with your MBP.  If it boots the MBP, the internal SATA cable probably is faulty and should be replaced.
