Can't get slideshow to work on mac

I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I cannot get the
Slideshow command to work on my iMac. It goes through all the
things needed to make it work - exactly the same as the PC - but
when you expect to see a preview of each picture while setting it
up, it says it can't find the file. If you click the 'Create'
button it goes through its paces, showing the percentage completed,
but when you try to open it in the browser, it hasn't written
anything to the folder (in fact it doesn't seem to have written
anything anywhere, no index file, no xml file, no nothing!!!
Help!!

I have no problem remembering where the album was saved...
apparently FW has problems finding it.
I think I have the problem solved - at least this one (I seem
to be having another one with saving to SPRY/HTML format).
I got the clue from another post. Apparently FW doesn't like
folder names with spaces and my site was buried pretty deep in the
directory structure. I copied the site to a location just under the
root of the drive and made sure there were no spaces in the folder
names so now it only has to look for DRV:/mywebsite/images and then
I export the gallery to DRV:/mywebsite/photo_gallery.
All the flash galleries seem to work fine but I'd like to
look at the SPRY/HTML gallery before I make a final decision which
to go with.
Al for FW defaulting to it's orignal program directory
everytime I go to look for an album I simply find it annoying...
thanks h,

Can't get slideshow to work!

Sorry about yet another basic question, but I can't get slideshow to work.
I have created a My Photos page template, dragged an Album into it. That looks OK, but when I click on play slideshow, nothing happens.
Enable Slideshow is ticked in Inspector.
Any help on this?

What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand? How are you uploading the files? Maybe not all files are getting to the server. Wouldn't be the first time that happened.

HT204408 I can not get facetime to work on Mac

I can log into store and icloud but when trying to start facetime on Mac I get a "can not verify email address". I have used it successfully in the past

This happened to me too but after I had read various messages on this forum I went into system preferences/date and time and unclicked the set date and time automatically. For some reason the preferences on facetime were no longer greyed out and facetime worked again! Hope this helps

Can't get mouse to work with mac mini

Yes, I replaced the batteries.
Not sure what's going on. I booted the Mac Mini and the message I'm getting is "Searching for mice -0 found" then it will attempt to search again...nothing. I've attempted keyboard commands, but I'm unable to close out the window that asks me to connect to a network. Any guidance would be great. Thanks!

First try and see if the mouse is working. Look in System Preferences > Bluetooth and see if the mouse shows as connected or not. If it does and you are still getting the message, select the mouse then click on Advanced and UNcheck "Open Bluetooth Setup Assistant at startup is no mouse or trackpad is detected."
If the mouse is NOT connected then try creating a clean Bluetooth environment by disabling any and all Bluetooth emmiters whithin 30 or 40 feet such as iOS devices (iPhones, iPads, iPads); other Blutooth keyboards, mice, trackpads; other computers, etc.
Sometimes cycling Blutooth of then on again can help (which is why I always keep a wired mouse and keyboard around). If the mouse was previously paired with the computer, and you have a wired mouse handy, in System Preferences > Bluetooth select the icon for the mouse then Control+Click and select "Remove" from the contextual menu then retry pairing.
The good news is once you get past this glitch, the next time you reboot pairing should go transparently.

Can't get Flashplayer to work for Mac

I am having an issue with my Flashplayer. I recently thought it was specific to Firefox but it appears to be all browsers. I used to just crash all the time, but now I can actually no longer watch many videos, though youtube still appears to work. I have seemingly tried everything. Uninstalled and reinstalled, activated plugins, made sure they're up to date, etc. I have tried every suggestion I've found anywhere on the web and nothing has worked. I am growing quite frustrated. I am using Mac OS X Lion 10.7.
Any suggestions, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

Can't get iCloud to work on Mac, but seems ok on iPad

I set up iCloud on my Mac and iPad. On my iMac I checked off mail, contacts, calendar, bookmarks and find my mac. When I click on "manage", It shows Backups and Mail on the left but Mail says 0kb. Backups show my last iPad back up but no iMac backups. What could I be doing wrong? I have updated everything to the latest software. I set up the iPad first, could that have caused a problem?
Thanks!

Try this support article > iCloud: Troubleshooting creating backups

Shouldn't make any difference.

Hi,
Is there an iPhone involved ?
If not, what happens if you remove the Apple ID on the iPad and then set it in Airplane Mode (allow a couple of minutes at this point) followed by re-adding the Apple ID ?
What, if any error messages are appearing on the Mac when you try to launch the App or Login to the iMessages server ?
Is the Apple ID linked to an iCloud account ?

The latest Apple driver support begins with the MP 171.

Hopefully, this will solve your device issues.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The iPad 1 is only able to do basic AirPlay, many providers of programming have blocked their apps from working with AirPlay.

have an airplay enabled AV Receiver - how do i set up Airplay
I have a Yamaha RX-V673 which is Airplay enabled, but i can't get Airplay to work either on my Mac book or my iphone. The receiver is connected to my network and i can control it using the iphone App and via the web browser option.
Do I need Apple TV or to change some settings somewhere?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

You are making some progress with setup of wireless network. Apparently there is reliability problem with the wireless connection. Perhaps you want to refer to following Apple support documents and start tweaking parameters in the router to improve the reliability. I used to have third-party routers such as Belkin and Netgear but switched to Apple Airport routers (Time Capsule then Airport Extreme for now) because of incompatibility issues whenever Apple upgrade Mac OS X. But since Apple develops Airplay protocol as alternative to Bluetooth for wireless audio/video streaming (with much better bandwidth) and must be deployed in any wireless network, there is no reason third-party routers not working for Airplay protocol.

It is almost as if the program does not exist on my computer. If I search for it, the only thing that comes up is the installer. I cannot find it anywhere despite the fact I have installed it numerous times, uninstalled it and conducted a fresh install, and the Adobe website checks says that it is installed.

Just thought I'd add my solution, I decided to go with WebDAV and I think it actually works better than the iTunes way, the steps are pretty much the same but avoiding the iTunes interface just makes things easier and faster.
I followed this guide but it does have a small mistake in the httpd-dav.conf file, on line 2, where it's WebServer/WebDAV">, it should be <Directory "/Library/WebServer/WebDAV">.
The tricky part is setting permissions which if wrong will give you errors when connecting with the iPad, I opted to set all to Read&Write since my home network has a hardware firewall. Another convenience was to add an alias to the webdav share on the Desktop.
I'm still expecting the call from Apple but even if they fix the iTunes I'm sticking with WebDAV, atleast until I see what's new with iOS5 and iCloud this fall which should bring true sync for documents (I'm hoping that they will offer encryption with my own keys, if not, then I'll probably keep using WebDAV).

I can't get java to work on my Mac. It is installed and enabled. I can't activate java per site because I don't get "click here to activate" box.

I can't get java to work with Firefox on my mac with OS 10.6.8. I did everything suggested and still no luck. Java is installed, enabled, and updated. I can't even activate java per site because I don't get the "click here to activate" box for some reason. Apple support said it's a firefox problem and they can't help me. I need to be able to use java!

hello, please update firefox to the latest version & your OS to 10.6.8.
