Apple TV showing slideshow ( happenings in iPhote)

I still cant resolve the problem that Apple TV not can show my slideshow and also not map the photos as happenings in iPhoto.
Does anyone have a solution to this big problem in the new update. Or is there an easy way to transfer slideshows by export/import to movies. If this is the case, how is this done?
Hope to get some clarification on this subject.

Winston, this is plain stupid. The old slideshow feature worked well enough for most people, why take it away? It was quick, simple, easy to use, and it basically just worked.
Unfortunately it didn't just work, the transitions applied in iphoto are rendered differently on the tv than they are on a mac, resulting in them taking a different amount of time to display, as a result of which the audio and video would be of different lengths on the tv, which unfortunately in some cases was far from insignificant. I'm far from being particular about how my media displays but this was not particularly acceptable to me and I stopped using slideshows created in iphoto after a few days of use after I got my first tv.
I can't possibly know if this is why the feature was removed but this and the fact that iphoto now uses more complex transitions, suggests to me it was.
Those who are really neurotic about perfect slideshows could always create movies, as you suggest, for the older AppleTV versions.
Well actually they couldn't do this with the ease they now can. iphoto only used to support export of low resolution movies in a format not compatible with the tv.
Also, if AppleTV does not support new features in iPhoto, wouldn't a much better solution be to add support for those features to AppleTV?
Well it might be assuming this is possible, but I have some doubts it is.

  • Is there any good Linux software to show slideshows, videos and more?

    Hi.
    We are trying to replace windows and apple on all computers in our church. Now, I know we will most likely hang on to some of our macs for video editing purposes, but we have identified several computers that runs Windows that can easily use Linux.
    We have come across one nut that we have yet to solve, and I would hope that someone would have some input on how to do this.
    In the lobby, we have a windows computer hooked up to a tv. On the screen we are showing Slideshows with information on upcoming events, videos from meetings, twitter and also a list of all the Buses leaving from the nearby bus stop. The latter one is hooked to "Västtrafiks" (our local bus company) API, and update in real time.
    All this is very easily done in WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation). Since there is no support in mono for this yet, we are looking to replace the application all together. However, we can't seem to find a suitable replacement. We have all been looking for a while, and we are starting to think that we may have to write our own program in Java.
    Now, this would be a huge time sink, so I hope that some of you might have some insight about a software that could fulfill our needs.
    The basic requirements are Image slideshow, background Music, Video slideshow, twitter feed, and perhaps rss feed integration. Now, the ability to show Västtrafiks time table would be neat, but I think we can hack that ourselves if we find a suitable open source solution for the rest.
    I am going to try to get a video on what it looks like today, to get a better understanding about what it is.

    I have some questions: How is the formatting on this? I mean, is the slideshow, video(s), feeds and such all on screen at one time like an American cable newscast?
    Yes, if I understand you correct.
    A bit more information. Today we use a Dropbox folder to add media, like videos and images etc. After every loop that the software has made it stops to check if the folder has any new files. If it has, it automatically includes it in the feed, as well as deletes any media that has been removed from the folder. So everything is managed by uploading to the folder from anywhere, the box itself is headless and is only running this single output.
    Today we only show the output on one single screen. But it may be interesting to do this over several screens in the future.
    We could use openshot and manually edit the feed etc, but that takes away the ease of use. The idea is that anyone with something to say should be able to upload it without any tech skills. Right now, we are thinking about porting the functionality to Java, however I think that this would be at least 50 work hours to get it functional.

  • Can you show slideshow within Lightroom 4.4 in Adobe RGB color space?

    Can you show slideshow within Lightroom 4.4 (not export out from LR) in Adobe RGB color space provided that you are using a wide gamut monitor which is capable and hardware calibrated & profiled to show such color space?
    If this is possible, what is required to do so in Windows 8 and i7-4770 & HD Graphics 4600 platform or does LR take care of it automatically?
    This is very basic question, however, I could not find a clear answer/info from LR documentation, so wish that someone can advice.

    Those settings are probably stored in a plist somewhere in ~/Library/Preferences. If you can locate the appropriate file, you should be able to copy it to all the network user folders.

  • How come someone elses Apple ID Shows up when I try to update my apps

    How come someone elses Apple ID Shows up when I try to update my apps? It's Grey and won't let me change it. I've signed out and resigned in, but this very odd email address always shows up as my apple ID. Please help if you can, I just need to update some apps.

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove may not be the one named in the update notice. For example, the App Store could prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app could be "Final Cut Pro." Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
    1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
              File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
              Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
              Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
              Raw Query
    as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
    3. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    4. At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    5. Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
    If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

  • Apple TV Shows Up, Tries To Sync, Then Disappears

    Well I've spent a couple hours reading threads and searching because I knew I've seen other people having issues with Apple TV showing up in iTunes, but I haven't read about quite the same problem nor have I found an answer.
    This isn't a problem with mine. My dad recently got an Apple TV. Two weeks ago I went over, got it set up, copied their entire music and photo library plus about 60GB of movies. No problems. Last week when I was there, I was trying to copy one more movie but was having problems getting iTunes to see the Apple TV. I finally gave up and streamed the movie to show him and my mother. I forgot about the problem, but my dad called me yesterday saying he couldn't get music he purchased from the Apple TV over to the computer. Figures. Apple TV is still not showing up in iTunes. Apple TV has no problem connecting to the internet though and no problem streaming from iTunes.
    Between what I was trying last weekend and what I've had him do, I can't think of anything else. Restarting either the Mac or the Apple TV allows for iTunes to see the Apple TV for a moment or two. It appears to attempt a sync, then disappears from the Devices list.
    The Apple TV is connecting to the network via WiFi. He doesn't have a dedicated router though. The Mac is connected to DSL via Ethernet and Sharing is on to computers via WiFi. Again Apple TV has no problems streaming or connecting to the outside world. Laptops and iPods have no problem on this shared network either.
    Can anyone think of anything I could try, or maybe point me to a thread I might not have found?
    Thanks!

    Sorry for starting this thread now - hours too late. The thread I knew was here somewhere popped up. I'll keep this all over there and shut this down. Thanks.

    I recently updated to Yosemite and never had this issue before.

    I'm not 100% sure of the ins and outs, but it's some sort of known issue between Yosemite, Airport and wifi. All you can do is wait for a fix and keep restarting your equipment as and when needed, unless you have the ability to connect your Mac via ethernet.

    Can anyone assist me with this issue?
    Thanks

    To downgrade, you'll need to download the previous software version here: ATV3 http://appldnld.apple.com/AppleTV/041-4361.20120605.grjot/AppleTV3,1_5.0.2_9B830 _Restore.ipsw
    ATV2: http://appldnld.apple.com/AppleTV/041-4362.20120605.t8i4U/AppleTV2,1_5.0.2_9B830 _Restore.ipsw
    Next, plug the Apple TV into your computer with a micro-usb cable (most phones today use these) and start up Itunes. It should detect the Apple TV in recovery.
    After that, hold down Option on Apple or Alt on Windows and click Restore. This should open a window that allows you to select the software update you want to apply. Select the one you downloaded earlier.
    It will then go through the restore process, which takes only a few minutes, and then you will be able to plug the Apple TV back in to your display and set it up again.
    I recently ran into a similar issue with a bunch of these things and after restoring them all to the previous software version they are working again.

  • When playing music from Ipod in my car, music suddenly stops and message appears to restore in iTunes.  After a few minutes, it starts to play again.  I hear a click and the apple logo shows on the screen.  Any ideas??

    You may need to do a Restore in iTunes.
    Clicking sounds from an iPod that has a hard drive is probably not a good thing.  It is possible that your iPod's hard drive is becoming unreliable.

  • So my i just dropped my iPad and now it won't start up. It just keeps turning on and off. Like the apple symbol shows up and then goes away? What happened and is there a way to fix it. I tried restoring and that didn't work

    I pretty much stated it in my question. I dropped my iPad and now it won't boot itself up. The apple symbol shows up, then the screen turns all black and weird looking with a strange green color at the bottom, and just turns off. It keeps doing this over and over. What happened and is there a way to fix it? I also tried connecting it to itunes and that doesn't seem to be working. It detects an ipad but can't seem to read anything else. It tells me to try and restore it but I can't. HELP!!!

    Try this. It worked for a few users after a drop.
    Turn the iPad over and give it a very HARD slap on the back. May take several slaps.

  • I have a PB G4 that won't start. It shows the gray apple screen, shows the blue screen, and then the screen goes black, and "sleep" light pulses.

    I have a PB G4 that won't start. It shows the gray apple screen, shows the blue screen, and then goes black. The sleep light pulses. From there, I can't turn it off normally. I have tried restarting the PMU. And I have tried unplugging the ac adaptor and removing the battery. From there I have plugged only the ac adaptor in, and it will begin to start but do the same thing once it shows the blue screen.
    I tried only using the battery (without plugging in the ac adaptor) and the same thing happens. I tried starting the computer while holding down CTRL, Option, P, and R, waiting to hear the start up chimes 3 times, and then holding Shift as it starts up. But I still get the black screen once I see the blue one, and the computer's sleep light pulses.
    I need something very important from this computer. And was able to start it last night. I did not shut down the computer, and was going to take it to a friends to use his printer today. The computer was in sleep mode in the morning.
    Thanks for any help!
    Gina

    What your describing could be a logic board or memory issue. 
    You did or did not hear 3 startup chimes?  If you hear 3 chimes when you start it, that would indicate a memory problem.  Try reseating the memory to see if that makes a difference. If you have 2 RAM cards, try one then the other in each slot. If you have 1 RAM card, move it to the other slot. Powerbooks can develop one bad slot.
    You may need to pull the hard drive out of the Powerbook, put it into an external case, then read it from another mac.
