Can't assign specific music to specific photo albums in slideshow

I've tried and tried but apparently there is no way to assign specific music to specific photo albums. I had spent some time before getting apple tv arranging my photos into "smart albums" in iphoto and assigning appropriate music to each of them. Unfortunately apple tv does not look at the settings in iphoto to determine how it will display photos. All i can do now is select shuffle music under the slideshow settings in apple tv and whatever music will play is always a mystery.
This is a big problem in my opinion because, for example, who wants to listen to Green Day's "Basket Case" when viewing baby pictures, or Jimmy Buffet's "Margaritaville" when viewing pictures of my kid going sled riding!!

Hi pc2macconverted,
You can sync specific music to a slideshow in two ways, the first is to make a slideshow in iPhoto and attach the music you would like. Remember to sync the slideshow and the music. The second option is to create and sync playlists of music that you would like for your albums and then in the photo settings you can choose the playlist for the music playlist that you would like.
Cheers,
John

  • How can I sync specific photos from folders instead of syncing the whole folder to my iPad?(1 gen)

    So I recently synced a few folders from my PC to my iPad 1 and there was a few photos I did not want on my iPad, so when I tapped the photo, the trash button wasn't there. I looked up why that was happening and discovered it was because synced photos can't be deleted from the photo library. So I ask my question, how can I sync specific photos from folders instead of the whole folder? from iTunes to my iPad. If there is not a way for me to sync specific photos from folders, how can I delete the photos I don't want from my iPad?

    As King_Penguin has already explained, this isn't possible with the stock Photos app.
    As far as photo syncing is concerned, I also recommend PhotoSync, which is an excellent photo (and video!) synchronization tool, should you want to stick with the stock Photos app on the iPad. Should you want something better (Photos is a pretty limited app without sorting, EXIF displaying etc. capabilities and with HUGE storage usage), you'll need to take a look at third-party apps. I too recommend Photo Manager Pro, it's IMHO the best tool. There's a complete roundup of image viewers for iOS at http://www.iphonelife.com/blog/87/all-one-photo-viewer-roundup-70-price-drop-bes t-image-viewer ; you might want to read it.

  • IOS home screen link to a specific photo album?

    Is it possible (third party app?) to create a home screen link/icon to a specific photo album.
    A friend who is an artist (although not technically proficient) has a number of albums in her library. If she wanted to have one album (of specific works) that she wanted for quick access (instead of clicking photos and then searching through all the other albums), could there be a link on the home screen to quickly access the specific album.
    Thanks!

    I am not aware of any third party apps that woulld add a home screen icon for a photo album. What I do know is that it is a feature of WP7 (Windows Phone 7) and I wish they would add it. What I DO know is that Safari allows you to add a "bookmark" on your home screen, so if you can find a service that would take you to that album in Safari, you got a solution.

  • Can I assign specific ring tones to certain contacts?

    I would like to be able to assign specific ring tones to certain contacts; how do I do this (assuming it can be done)?

    My phone has not arrived yet, but I would think you could solve this by doing these things.
    Now lets just assume that you have ringtones A - Z
    Set the phone to ring all the time with ring A
    Then go into your contacts and set each person you know with ringtone B - Z (but you have to do this for each contact IN your phone) and you can't use A because you only want it to ring with that tone when someone you don't know is calling, right?
    Then, when your phone rings with a private caller or from some # that is NOT in your contact list, it will ring A because you have assigned all other contacts either B - Z. The only difference would be that if "Joe" was calling from his office and the line out was different than the # you have in his contact, it would also ring tone A.
    Of course, if you could download tones, it would be easier, but for now you can't. So, this is the only thing that would possibly work for now.
    Did any of that make sense?

  • When I sync my iphone to be able to import all the photos from a specific photo album onto my iphone.. why do the videos included not import?!

    So I used to have an iPhone 5 with 7000+ photos inc videos. I finally decided to free up some memory by exporting the entire camera roll into a specific folder on my windows pc. In the album are all the photos and videos, matching the content from my camera roll (obviously). Now I have the 5S and would like the entire library of photos back into my photos app. So obviously it was as simple as plugging in my iPhone and clicking the photos tab, then 'Sync Photos from' and choosing that specific folder that I had previous exported my camera roll into. I then ticked the include videos checkbox. After the sync was completed, I then went onto my photo album and found the correct album being listed. However the number of photos on the iphone album did not match the number of photos in the actual album on my windows pc. Then I realised the reason.. the videos have not transferred? I've tried resyncing several times. iTunes identifies the album to exist the correct number of photos/videos as it should do, yet my iphone still has not imported any videos. Is there anything i'm doing wrong?! Thanks in advance for any help.

    Seems that you can no longer hide them on your phone.  Try doing so in iTunes: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919.

  • How can i link a text to a photo into a slideshow?

    hello, need some help please! i want to link a text to a specified photo into a slideshow, another word to another photo and so on...I've tried any slideshow, and composition with anchor points and it doesn't work. How can i realize that please?

    There's no support within Muse to cause click on a word within a flow of text to result in a slideshow turning to a specific image.
    A composition widget can be used to have clicking on or rolling over a trigger object cause a target container to appear.

  • IPhone resets playing music and viewing Photo Album

    My iPhone has started reseting to the main menu and the applications (photo album and iPod) at random when both are active. I hava also had several resets, I call them that because I don't know what the system is doing but the application simply quits and the phone goes back to the top menu. I have heard there is a problem with the latest version of the system so is there anything I can do to stablize the situation? The phone is working as it should be but the applications are not predictable.
    Thanks for your responses in advanced.

    The behavior you're describing where the application quits and you are taken back to the home screen is called "crashing".
    The first thing you can try is resetting your iPhone. Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down until the Apple logo shows on the screen (about 6-8 seconds), then release the buttons.
    If that does not help, you should restore your iPhone. Connect your phone to iTunes, let it sync, and then click restore. After your iPhone software is reloaded, you will be able to restore all your data from your last sync. You will have to re-enter some passwords, such as your voicemail password, wi-fi network passwords, and email account passwords.
    If you continue to get crashes despite these measures, I recommend getting your iPhone serviced either by taking it to the Apple store or by calling 1-800-MY-iPHONE.

  • Can you transfer pictures with tags from photo album 2 to Photo organizer 9 (MAC)?

    I am switching over to a Mac computer and want to move my 25,000 plus images with various tags on Photo Album 2(windows) to a new program. Is this possible on Photoshop elements 9 or any program?

    It's easy enough to get them from Elements 9 in windows to Elements 9 on a mac (if you buy the boxed version you can install on either platform). The tricky part is getting from PSA2 to PSE 9 in windows. See this for more:

  • HT4858 how can i set a restriction to my photo album

    You would need to use an app to do this, such as https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hide-photos-lock-videos-keep/id510873505?mt=8 or https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/private-photo-vault-ultimate/id417571834?mt=8.

  • Can not delete "documents" folder in iphone photo album

    I don't know how it happened but I opened my photo album recently and noticed that there is a roll in there called "Documents". When I open it there are several photos, one of which is a document on how to use windows fax and scan, a few others are generic windows desktop photos and a few others are from a website I designed a long time ago. My suspicion is that it's from the airsharing app i used to have.
    I am not able to delete these documents. Anyone have any idea how to get rid of them? Hopefully without a reset of my phone.
    I included a picture here:

    Did you try to copy the folder to another place and delete it afterwards in the photo album on your pc and apply a sync?

  • Create Photo Album or Slideshow

    Hi all,
    Several years ago I found a tool in an older dreamweaver or somewhere in cs4 or 5 - to easily create a page filled with thubnails and when you clicked on one it would open the larger version (Photo Album)...
    I can't seem to recall how I did this ... do they still have something like this for cs 5 or cs 6?

  • How can I set different musics to different photo presentations?

    With iOS4.3, I could do this easily. Each photo presentation had its own music. With i,OS5,  after watching a presentation, if I choose another one, the music that appears is the one played in the last presentation.

    I can still change it in the same way as I did on iOS 4 via the slideshow button on the album - each of my albums has a different track. If you haven't selected a track for the album then by default it will have the same track as that chosen for the previous album, but you can just select a different track which should then be remembered for the next time - I tend to start the slideshow after selecting the track and let it play the first couple of photos just to try and make sure that it is remembered.

  • Can I extend a music track beyond photo or video image?

    I am in iMovie 11 and trying to extend a sound track at the end of my project to play past the final image. My song still has 1 minute 30 seconds according to the clip master, but the song ends with the last picture. I can't pull the sound strip beyond the last picture, and when I try to extend in clip master it reverts back to end picture images. Is there a way to have the music play past the final image?

    You need to have video or a photo/still running with the audio. You can't drag the audio track beyond the last image. You will need to add a further image or video to cover the remaining part of the song.
    To insert a black image, go to the Map, Background and Animatic Browser (the last icon in the centre tool bar). Drag the Black (or any other) background to the end of your project. Double-click this to bring up the Inspector and change the duration to match the section of song you wish to cover. After inserting the background, you will need to drag out the sound track to its full limit (adjust the image duration again if necessary).

  • Can i set the timing for individual photos in a slideshow

    there are text pages that need to be read but not at a 4 second speed
    it has to be slower more time
    syncing to music i compose is a must
    can each individual photo have its own time
    i hope so or else they ruined a wonderful product
    with this limitation

    Glen:
    Yes, you can. Under the slide there's a button titled "Adjust'. Click on it and you can set the time for that slide, the transition, etc.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
