Can iPhoto update slideshows while they're playing?

Is it possible for iPhoto to update a slideshow while it's playing?
What I want this for is so that I can set up a smart album to add photos from the last day (for example) and display a slideshow of that album on the TV at a party. Then I can take photos on my iPhone, they'll be automatically added to the Photostream, then to the smart album I created, then played on the slideshow. That would mean that as I took photos at the party they would be displayed on the TV. It will allow us to reminisce immediately.
If that's not possible, it should be, because that would be pretty sweet.

I tried it with a smart album containing photos from the last day, setting the slideshow to repeat and shuffle the photo order. I let the slideshow run for more than half an hour, in which time is must have looped dozens of times, and took a number of photos on my iPhone, but the photos in the slideshow never changed. When I quit out of the slideshow though, the photos hadn't been added to the smart album. I had to click on the Photostream first to update it, then went back to the smart album and the photos I had taken were there.
I need a setting to make the Photostream and smart album update automatically before I can be sure that the slideshow doesn't update.

    The only people who can possibly assist you with this is Apple Customer Relations, call your local Apple contact number and ask for Customer Relations then explain your situation clearly and politely (be firm but don't rant).
    You might want to investiage what the local laws are regarding defective goods and 'fit for use' definitions on warranties etc. Consumer Protection can be a useful tool to use or bargain with if needed ...

    Of course you can update now. BTW, how exactly did you cancel this, did you contact AST or what?

  • Can import cd's but they wont play properly

    Ive bought myself an ipod nano for christmas and its all wrapped up under the tree but i decided to get a head start with importing songs from my cd's.
    When i import songs from a cd and go to play them on my computer, or even if the songs start playing while im importing, it only plays the first second of the song over and over again. At the top, where it shows the progress of the song, itunes is counting down the minutes of the song normally and yet i still only hear the first second of the song over and over again. Ive looked in the help section and tried everything. The songs are imported using the AAC encoder.
    When i first downloaded itunes and did my first import, the songs played fine, then my computer reset itself which it does frequently, and its only ever since then that they wont play properly and i dont know why because i didnt change any of the settings. Ive since fiddled around with the different options and nothing has worked.

    No.
    The songs played fine until the computer reset itself. Ever since then, that's when they will only play the first second of the song over and over again.
    I deleted the songs and tried to import them again but that didnt help. I've tried to import songs from other cd's and the same thing happens.
    Even if I just try to play a cd using itunes, same thing happens, first second of each song over and over again.
    My cd's play fine on windows media player. Its really starting to frustrate me!

  • I can't update certain apps they say they are open when I made sure they are closed

    I can't update certain apps on my iPad and also iPhone, they say they are open but I made sure they are closed. I still get updates which I can download , but these certain apps seem to just say open. So when you touch open it goes right to the app, so I close it and try again and it still says open, I even tried holding down the power button and rebooting with no success.

    On iOS 7 apps that you've updated remain in the Updates tab in the App Store app for a couple of weeks before they disappear off it - if they show 'Open' against them (which will take you into the app) then that indicates that you've already updated them (they should have a grey bar above them with 'Updated 8 November 2013' or similar), if there is an available update for them then they will show 'Update' against them instead e.g.

  • I can see the songs but they wont play

    An error message comes up saying - The song could not be found because the original file could not be found.
    This message even comes up on purchased songs.
    I am trying to also register my new nano 3rd gen that I bought from the US and it wont let me register it on my Itunes ID because it wont let me changes countries from the US to the UK. Could this be the problem?

    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • Can iPhoto update photo with position?

    I have been busily placing my photos with Places. Now I have discovered that JetPhoto can do the same and with the $25 pro version, update the photo file with the location data.
    Does anyone know if iPhoto can or does do the same thing? I like the idea of the location being stored in the photo rather than in a separate iPhoto file.
    If iPhoto can't do this, I might start over and use JetPhoto and then import my photos again into iPhoto and then let Places find and locate them.

    Sure - when you export a photo (file menu ==> export) with the proper items checked the data is exported with the photo to one file - basically I see no difference in the locate function of Jetphoto and the locate function of Places -- if you have a GPS logger then JetPhoto says it will use the track file to match up to photos - iPhoto does not do this - most users so far have been using HoudahGeo - http://www.houdah.com/houdahGeo/ - for this

    I tried deleting them and redownloading them but its not working.
    Try deleting and redownloading again, this time with simultaneous downloads disabled.
    While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unchecked.

  • Embedding artwork to songs, while they're playing, corrupt the files?

    While manually adding & removing artwotk have had strange experiences.
    Most notably the added artwork shows up pixelated & corrupt looking,
    for lack of a better term. Then the files lost all metadata but the songs titles.
    I know it sounds like bad files, but these were newly downloaded from iTunes....
    Ideas?
    Thanks

    I often want to remove files from my iTunes library, but keep them on my harddrive. That's why iTunes asks you if you want to delete it. Holding control down when you hit delete will at least get rid of the first dialogue box.
    If you are trying to delete a song that is playing, it won't delete it because it is in use.
    I assume the same is happening on your machine with podcasts. Your system thinks the files is still in use, so can not delete it.

  • ITunes not delete songs from your hard drive while they're playing?

    So, if I delete a song, it says "would you like to keep this file or delete it?" And I always want to delete it; I can't even imagine why I would want to keep files I'm deleting.
    However, if you are playing a song at the time, or if you're listening to a podcast and it has finished playing, if you try to delete them, it will not delete the file even if you tell it to.
    Is there a setting around this or is iTunes just as stupid as I think?
    i.e. Is the only solution after you finish listening to a podcast to play some other random file and then delete it?
    This became infinitely more annoying after iTunes decided that videos should automatically be played in the window instead of a new window, since now I have to make sure I'm picking another random file that ISN'T a video so I can actually see the original file and delete it.

  • Can iPhoto update the descriptions of photos shared to Flickr?

    I just finished uploading 150-odd photos I took into iPhoto 9.5.1 (902.17) and annotated virtually all of them.  Having waited through the long, slow upload process I now notice that I made a number of typographical errors in the descriptions.  After I have corrected them in iPhoto, is there any way short of deleting the photos on Flickr and uploading again, to get iPhoto to update the descriptions, or do I need to go through and update them by hand on Flickr?

    Intestingly enough, I see that some of the photos I uploaded to the Flickr photostream have an indication of that in the "information" display, but the bulk of them do not.  I think it may relate to my having selected 153 (148 photos, 5 short videos) in iPhoto and asking it to upload them all in the same go.  That upload "stalled-out" at some point and I ended-up having to do the last 20 or so (guessing) in a second upload.  I'm guessing that iPhoto didn't record the uploading for the first chunk

  • Can I update iOS7 while traveling abroad?

    I have a Verizon iPhone 5, but no service. Will it activate?
    I recall travelling abroad last year, and when I accepted an iOS 6.x update, it wouldn't activate. Not sure because I was traveling abroad, or if it needs a SIM to update.

    Actually I took the plunge and tried updating anyway. I was able to update and activate successfully while in Bangkok, Thailand.
    Only downside is that I was using a 3rd party lighting cable, which worked fine with iOS6, but not in iOS7. So now I have to find an OEM cable... =\

  • Can I update captioning while scrubbing through the media?

    I'm researching the captioning plugin and the example application is great but it doesn't refresh the media or captioning in realtime as the scrub bar is adjusted. I'm assuming this is possible but I wanted to check first.
    I'd need to trigger these events as I scrubbed :
    temporalFacet.addEventListener(TemporalFacetEvent.POSITION_REACHED, onShowCaption);          
    temporalFacet.addEventListener(TemporalFacetEvent.DURATION_REACHED, onHideCaption);
    Can someone tell me if this is possible?

    For now you need a connection to a computer to update the OS.  And you can't sync your phone to your iPad.
