Blank slides show up in slideshow

I have created several slides. When I play the slide show, blank slides show up between the slides that I created. What gives?

Wow, thank you.
These are not rouge, they are consistent between each slide in the presentation. All my slides are on the standard grey-to-black (black to grey?) gradation. Let's see if I can explain better:
Slide 1 says "my name"
Slide 2 says "I have candy"
Slide 3 says "What do you need?"
In presentation mode, slide 1 loads automatically and holds. No problem. My next click will bring a gradation slide with no text. The next click will bring "I have candy", next click, a gradation slide without text.
If I esc at this point, Slide 3 is highlighted.
Does that help?
Thanks again.

Panic Attack: iPhoto 7.1.5 slide show Blank

I recently copied over my entire iPhoto Library from my G5 Quad to my MBP. After opening iPhoto, I selected one of the groups to play a slide show. Everything worked fine. (I used the option to create the slide show using the right arrow button on the lower bottom left of the application.)
I then decided to add music. I then copied my iTunes library over from my Quad to MBP. I then opened iTiunes to make sure everything work and it did.
I then selected the music playlist I wanted to play in the background of my Slide show and started the slide show--problem is now the slide show is blank almost all the time. Maybe every 20 seconds or so a slide comes up. The music plays fine.
I hve tried the following to resolve the problem:
1. Rebooted
2. Repaired disk permissions
3. Unselected music
4. Tried selecting a different picture group
5. Change Transition
6. Unselected "scale photos to fill screen'
Yet I get the same blank slide show. I have to give this slide show tomorrow, so now I am now experiencing a panic attack. Any ideas where to start?

I copy the entire 'Pictures' folder over from another Mac and then put it into the MBP Pictures folder. That is what did not work.
Hw did you point iPhoto at this library.
On the second version, I copied just the iPhoto File (35 GBs) and then drag it into iPhoto on the MBP. After it loaded the pictures (6000 of the), I noticed that the albums on the lower left of iPhoto did not come over in the copy and import.
This is not how you restore a Library. What you’ve done there when you
drag it into iPhoto
is have all the pics and versions treated as individual items. There is no way to import a database into another one like this.
The trick is to copy the Library to the Pictures Folder and then launch iPhoto. That’s it. There’s no importing involved. If you have more than one library then Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'

I just completed a keynote presentation, but it will not "play"...I just get a blank slide (probably the final slide) when I hit the play button, even though I can see all the slides are in the list and will open as I click on them. HELP!

I just completed a keynote presentation but it will not "Play". I can see the slides are in place, but all that comes to the screen when I hit the play arrow is the last, blank, slide. HELP!

At the risk of stating the obvious, is your first slide highlighted before you hit play? You mentioned the last blank slide shows up which could mean you have that last slide highlighted. If the last slide is highlighted and you hit play then that is the slide that will show up and if it's your last slide that is all you will see.
Make sense?

PSE 8 - Why is there not a slide show in 16x9 format?

Warum gibt es nicht eine Diashow im 16x9 Format?
It would be good if the PSE 8 with a new format 16x9 would make an update!

Hello, when a slide show with PSE (slideshow) in the 16:9 format is created, then the zoom can not be used. After transmission to the PRE proposed format is not mandatory. The TV then displays a border around the Image.
Again, a 16:9 aspect ratio in the tool slideshow in PSE with zoom 16:9 would be a very large value for PSE+PRE! Then I would not have to use a competing product.
I still have hope!!

Adding Slide Show to blank page

Is there a way to add slide show for photos to a blank page in iweb? or another way to see photos larger in a blank page?

You can have your photos page start with the larger photo rather than the grid of thumbnails by using adding Cyclosaurus's javascript code to an HTML snippet to the page. See his post <a href="<a href="http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6272619#6272619" title="in response to: Cyclosaurus">http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6272619#6272619" target="_blank">in this topic.
Or you can add a flash based slideshow like one of those in these demo pages:

However, as Wyodor pointed out it will take more than just drag and drop to move iWeb beyond it's designed limits.

DVD shows blank pics during playback of slideshows

I am trying to create a DVD using iDVD to playback pictures. I have 3 slideshows and whenever I preview the DVD within iDVD, the pictures show up as expected. Whenever I burn the disc or create a disk image (I did this after 3 unsuccessful burns) for playback, my main menu shows up fine but when I go to select a slide show to play, all I see is a black blank screen. I set my slide show to transition every 5 secs and I see the DVD player (Oppo BDP-83 and Apple's built in DVD player) counting down the time and moving the cursor left and right appropriately moves to the next photo...albeit blank.
I went ahead and did a workaround by creating the slideshows as serperate movies in iMovie, but would like the DVD I'm making to have the flexibility to have the pictures controlled via a remote too. Any help?

Hi
There are many things with SlideShows and iDVD
• 99 photo limit per show
• use of transitions most often results in bad quality
• manual shift of photos - no not with iDVD
(I would assemble a PowerPoint serie for manual directed shows)

Created slide show in iPhoto, but with new version music no longer will play. When I click on fit slideshow to music, iPhoto shuts down. How can I fix this.

I created a slideshow in a previous version of iPhoto. Since updating software the music in my slide show no longer plays. How do I fix this? If I select fit slideshow to music, the application will shutdown and the error file is sent and have to reopen iPhoto.

I reorganized iTunes music library and it works.

When I try to burn my slideshow.mov to a dvd disc, it will burn but when i put it in the dvd player it says 'disc error'. I have burned it thru iDVD before but forgot how to do it and it won't do it now. The slide show is on my desktop

Rather than burn directly to disk follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

Is Copy Paste Pans & Zooms Possible in Photoshop Elements Slide Show Editor Slideshow?

In the Photoshop Elements Slide Show Editor, someone wants to create a unique pan and zoom effect for one photo and be able to apply it the the rest of the photos in the Filmstrip without having to do that on an individual photo basis.
In the Slide Show Editor, Edit Menu/Apply Pan & Zoom to All Slides or Apply Pan & Zoom to Selected Slide(s) does not get the job done. Instead it looks like it just applies the default Photoshop Elements pan and zoom. I have investigated several routes to the goal unsuccesful and have concluded that Photoshop Elements Slide Show Editor offers no such copy paste pans & zoom feature.
I have detailed how to add more than one pan & zoom per slide, how to get the pan & zoom copy/paste job done in Premiere Elements, either doing all the pan & zoom in Premiere Elements or creating the pan & zoom in Photoshop Elements for one slide, using Send to Premiere Elements, Break Apart Adobe Photoshop Elements Slideshow, copy/paste of the transferred pan & zoom. Believe it or not, that does work. I know that there will be skeptics who feel that the pan & zoom timing would be distored, but....This person does not have or want Premiere Elements in the equation. So, I am looking for a way out for her.
I am posting the question here for someone to confirm my conclusion or offer a way that has escaped me. If someone has found a way, he/she will be fully created for the contribution and thanked.

Copy and past funtionaliy is not available in pan & zoom feature. Please do a feature request.

Creating blank slide in slideshow

Is there a way to create a blank slide for a slideshow in iPhoto? A few weeks ago, Old Toad made a reference to doing this for his slideshows, but I wasn't sure if this was an option available just in iDVD.

Use an application that will let you give the background a color if you don't want a blank white slide. Any freeware image editor can create a new, blank canvas of any size you decide and can add color to it before saving as a jpg. A couple are Acorn and Seaside. Some text editors will also let you change the background color. The the print to pdf method that Terence mentioned will get you want you want. You can even create title slides that way.

Blank slides in slideshow

I am using photoshop elements 5 to make a slide show. After previewing it there were many RANDOM slides where the picture was no longer there, just a COMPLETELY BLACK SLIDE. How do I recover these? I spent a lot of time doing this and someone needs it asap. I cannot possibly remember which pictures were in all of the spots. please help....thanks!

When you save the slideshow, you are saving the current timeline edits, the images are not saved into the slideshow (just like they are not saved into the Organizer). Your slideshow is not made permanent until it has been exported as a video file or PDF.
The slideshow is part of the Organizer catalog (the database that keeps track of your files). You can sent your catalog from one version of Elements to another (as long as that other version is newer that where it is coming from). In the new version, go to File > Catalog and click the Convert button. You will be given a list of catalogs (if more than one is available). Select the one you want and convert it. This will bring the database (which includes your images and slideshows) into the new version.

IDVD Slideshow no audio / wrong slide show

Greeting, I have significant trouble with a iDVD project I have been working on. The main problem involves the slide shows. Don't be mistaken this is a large iDVD project, not much video input but 10 ish menus and 4 slide shows. I have experienced several problems with the slide shows. Previously one of the slide shows was duplicated in place of another slide show on a different menu. I was able to correct this by changing the order of some of the photos and re encoding the DVD. Currently Two of the slide shows have lost their audio content and several of the slides. I know that the missing audio on one of the slide shows is not caused by the format of the audio file as it is used on all but one of the menus.
I am going to try to re encode it yet again (probably the 6 or 7th time, iDVD tends to crash silently every third time) to see if it will encode correctly this time.
Any other suggestions about this?
Thanks!

However for one of the slide shows I did select the photos from iPhoto originally.
I wonder if that is affecting the performance...?
Here's an example of one of my slideshow projects that works fine. No iPhoto:
Ireland 2006
iDVD 6 Pass Through widescreen theme
696 images that are 2816x1584 pixels shot with Canon SD700 IS
15 640x480 movies from same digital camera transcoded to H.264 with QuickTime Pro.
Part 1 and Part 2 submenu buttons on main menu. All submenus are the Chapters option for this theme.
Part 1 leads to a submenu. That submenu has additional submenus and sub-submenus. Part 1 leads to 12 total submenus. These menus contain images and movies.
Part 2 leads to a submenu. That submenu has 5 submenus with only images.
I had to "remove" animation on all the sub-submenus and not include any music to get everything on a single-layer DVD-R. The Menu info was WAY over the 7:30; something like 14:00 after these adjustments. About 20 slideshows with music. Additional short slideshows with no music.
Started the rendering/encoding process at exactly 1:00:00 p.m.
Finished the Menu video rendering/encoding process at 3:53:30.
Finished the slides and transitions process at 5:37:30.
Process movies start 5:37:30, finished 6:27:45.
Burn process start 6:27:45.
Retrieving ends 6:28:30
Writing lead-in starts 6:28:30. Finished 6:31:55.
Writing... finished 6:33:50.

Blank slides in DVD slide show

When I burn a slide show, as I have twice, blank slids appear randomly in the show. If I reverse the show they don't appear but in the forward moce they just pop-up in a random fashon.

I too have been plagued by the blank slides in my IDVD project. I have deleted my project and started from scratch - didn't work. I have also experienced general bad performance where the applications have unexpected locked up on me.
I have been an avid MAC/ILife lover for more than 3 years, but ILife 08 has been nothing short of frustrating. I am online today trying to research some of my issues. I'm finished with 08 until Apple cleans it up. Its time to unistall it and go back to 06 so that I can complete some of my projects.
Help us out here Apple.
