Apple TV, update photo albums-how to

+*Hullo, I have now set up ATV and all running well.*+
+*One thing I am not clear about.......I have added about 70 new photos to Aperture, but they are not showing on the ATV.*+
+*Have turned Home Sharing off, in the hope that once Sharing is on again, new photos will be automatically added to the list...this did not seem to be the case.*+
*So, what is the method for adding new content (read photos) to the existing library?*
*I am sure the method is quite simple..but, what is it?*

Did you by any chance forget to check-off a box in "Choose Photos to Share"?
Otherwise, the most convenient way to 'Reset' ATV2 for a change in Photos is (on your ATV2, not iTunes) go into Photos, then click Menu to Exit, then click Photos again. It should reliably cause ATV2 to self-refresh. Hope this helps.

    I accidentally touched the auto enhance icon in iPhoto and now the program is stuck at "Updating photo."  How do I make it stop?

    Try to quit iPhoto from the Home Screen - the recent app section.:
    Double click the Home button to reveal the recently used apps.
    Then tap and hold on the iphoto for ios icon until it wiggles. It will show a "minus" sign in the corner.
    Now tap the minus sign to quit the app.
    Click the screen above the row of recent apps to return it to normal.
    Now restart iPhoto and see if it back to normal.

  • *** iOS4 Update: Photo Albums No Longer Alphabetical Order  ***

    Hey all, I have a 3GS and just did the 4.0 update today. Everything works fine, no errors, etc........but when I go into my Photo Albums...
    ...and for example; Click "My Vacation". The photo album opens up at the bottom, so I have to scroll upwards to see the photos, where-as before you always started at the top of the album and scrolled down to see all your photos.
    Not only that, they are completely out of alphabetical order. I've went into the folder itself on my computer and made sure it was organized.
    My friends phone did the same thing on an entirely seperate computer. Any ideas how to get it alphabetical again?

    This is a MAJOR problem for me. Several of my photo albums are actually screen shots of Hebrew texts for prayers. Until now, the photos displayed in filename order, so that the screens shots of text were in the proper order. Now they do not!
    I use a PC, and I am not going to buy a Mac just to have the power to re-order my photos within an album! That's ridiculous to require that!
    This has only been an issue since the ios4 update, and Apple needs to fix it!

  • Photo albums-how do you make more than one?

    I was wondering if anybody knows how to make more than one photo albumon the iphone..like not just the photo roll thing
    I looked more than once on the site but just cant figuire it out!!!
    Do i like make them through itunes or something?
    Also, i have not gotten the most recent update, but i have read alot of photo complications and im not sure i want to update it..I have already taken 300 pictures on my phone and i have had it sice Jan. So I need help with a lot of this photo thing
    PLEASE HELP!!!!!

    It isn't possible to create albums on or with the iPhone.
    You can create photo albums on your computer by creating and naming a folder, and then place the designated photos on your computer within the folder.
    Create a primary/parent folder that will contain only folders than contain photos.
    Select this parent folder under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences and then sync.
    If you haven't already done so, you need to transfer all photos captured by your iPhone to your computer and then delete the captured photos from your iPhone after being successfully transferred to your computer. If you want any of these photos available on your iPhone for viewing, you can place the photos in a folder or folders that are transferred from your computer to your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process.

  • Photo albums:  How to show thumbnails or no thumbnails?

    Photo Albums: Some of my albums show the thumbnails (on top of the individual photos) by default, others do not. How do I set the defaults? I want no thumbnails btw...

    in your photos page, in photo grid view:
    1) double click on a thumbnail to get to detail view.
    2) you see this
    in detail view, click on the thumbnail strip indicator to collapse the strip.
    that's it.

  • IPhone Photo Album - How To...

    Hi guys,
    In iPhoto I can see the name of the pictures and search them by name.
    But in the iPhone photo album I cannot see the name of the pictures.
    Any way to see them?
    I need to see pictures by name as I'm creating different picture folders for plants I use in my business.
    Thanks!!!

    Ohhh that *****!!!
    Any other 3rd party solution?

  • Accidentally deleted my photo album - how can I get it back?

    I accidentally deleted my photo album in iPhoto. Now it's gone.
    I have a backup on an external HD.
    But when I start time machine and go back to the last backup, I can only find all the photos, but not the albums. Can please anyone help? Thanks

    Since the albums are just pointers to the images and some extra information, they don't really exist separately, but are stored in the database.
    The best plan is to restore the whole library from the backup and re-import any added pictures.
    (Congratulations on having a backup!)
    You could use time machine to create a *duplicate* library, remove everything from the duplicate except the photo book and the images it contains and then use the third party iPhoto Library Manage go merge the duplicate back with the original, but that sounds like too much work for me. 8^)

  • How to make Apple TV update photos as new photos are entered into CPU?

    Here's my situation -- we are having a Halloween Party this Saturday and I wanted to be able to have people sit in front of my computer and take a picture of themselves with Photo Booth. They would then drag their picture into an album (I don't care if it's MobileMe Gallery, Album, etc.). A slideshow will be going in the other room from that folder via the Apple TV. The problem is getting that slideshow to update occasionally with the new pictures as they are dropped into the folder.
    Any ideas other than having to back out to the main menu each time and restarting the slide show???

    you also might want to refrain from calling people "nerds". you might use it in a comical manner, but not everyone might see it that way.

    How can I insert a colored border around a picture in an photo book?

    To do that you'll need a 3rd party editor like one of these:

    Rainbow Painter - $30
    Imagerie - $38
    Acorn - $50

    please help me I want to email a picture I got on Facebook to a friend and I want to put it on my camera roll.I really want to do this can someone please help me

    Facebook for iPhone doesn't allow you to save photos directly to your camara roll. However, you can try opening the photo within Facebook and take a screenshot of your ipod screen by pressing simultaneously the power and home button of your device. The picture will be saved in the camara roll and after that you can email it as normal.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Before going into any depth about this have you checked that you aren't simply using the shuffle option in the slideshow settings.
