Can't view slideshow

I have a site that I built to show work I have done. The samples are in photo albums. Someone just told me that when they click on the slideshow option, it comes up blank. Anyone else finding that problem?
Thanks

I have the same behavior.....
just a black screen with no buttons for all slide shows, and am prompted for .mac log-in everytime I publish.
I made the permanent fix "wyodor" suggested, plus making minor changes to pages.

I'm also still seeing some blue question marks for stock graphics.
My site is pretty messed up at the moment. Can I un-upgrade from mobileme?

  • Can't view slideshow once site is published

    Hello-does anyone have any advice on this.
    I published my website and then went to view it to find that it would not let me view the slideshow or click on a photo to enlarge. A box came up saying this...Firefox can't open because it cannot read the protocol.
    Anyone ever have this problem

    Some problems with Firefox 3 and iWeb were fixed in the latest version 2.0.4 of iWeb. If you're not already on iWeb 2.0.4, then upgrade to it via  menu > Software Update...
    Then in iWeb do +Publish All+ and clear your browser's cache before viewing your slideshow.

  • I'm no longer able to update my Typepad blog in Firefox; nor can I view 'slideshow' in flickr. Something is wrong. I updated to 6 beta but that didn't fix it. What's wrong?

    I can no longer update my blog in Firefox or view embeds that contain a flickr 'slide show'. I've double-checked on another computer with a different OS, same problem. These all work fine in other browsers. I updated Firefox just now but it didn't help. Has this bug been reported? Is there a fix? Thanks!

    Try removing Flash and then reinstalling it.

  • Can I view slideshows via an USB cable on my television

    I would like to watch my slideshows on my television, can I do this via a USN cable between the Apple Mac Pro and the televison's USB port

    Sorry, but this is not possible. If you use your iMac as a "base station", you cannot use an Airport Express as a "wireless-to-wired" adapter.
    The best solution for you problem is to buy at your local computer shop (a) a wireless router (which will share your DSL modem connection and provide a place to cable your iMac to) and (b) a wireless network adapter card for your PC. The wireless router will cost you around $50, the wireless adapter for the PC around $20-30.

    I get this pop up when trying to create a photo book through the iPhoto store.  
    "Some or all of the photos you selected were downloaded from your published albums. You can only view these photos. To use them in an album or a slideshow or project, you must import them to your photo library."
    The photos I have selected have already been imported so how and why do I do it all over again?
    What do they mean by published albums?  I categorize them into photo albums for organizational purposes after I import them from my camera or phone. So why can't I put them into a book now?
    I have over 400 photos selected for a photo book for my child's graduation gift so how can I tell which photos I have to do this to?
    Please help. Any insight wouyld be appreciated.
    Confused and frustrated...

    Give this a try:  apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.

    I was trying to Import photos from my Facebook photo to my MacBookAir and now all i got is lots of back round photo. Please Help me out to delete them.Some or all of the photos you selected were downloaded from your published albums. You can only view these photos. To use them in an album or a slideshow or project, you must import them to your photo library.

    What that's telling you is that some of the photos you want to use are not in your Library but online in a gallery you have linked to. You need to download them first.

  • Video Slideshows in LR 4.4 that can be viewed on a DVD Player?

    How do I create a slideshow video in LR 4.4 that can be viewed on a standard DVD player (or BluRay)?   I am using a PC running Windows 7.

    You will probably have to turn to other software. I use a program called ProShow Gold for DVD video presentations. I export JPEG images from Lightroom and use those to build my presentation.

  • Generating slideshows that can be viewed using any browser

    I'm about to reach my wit's end with respect to using iPhoto to generate a slide show that can
    1) easily be viewed in all of the major browsers, and
    2) not be such a large file.
    At present, I am using iPhoto to generate a slide show. This is straight forward and simple BUT if you have several pictures, the output file gets very large very quickly. I was able to easily produce 5 separate slide shows with a minimum of muss and fuss.
    However, the various output files were quite large and attracted the attention of the persons responsible for managing our storage space. I was asked to take the iPhoto produced slide show and convert this to a Flash presentation. A conversion application (Any Video Converter) was recommended and I used this to generate a Flash presentation (the file extension is sfw).
    It should be noted that these presentations were generated on a MacBook Pro, copied to a flash drive, and converted to a sfw format on a Windows machine. The files were then returned to the original MacBook Pro using the same flash drive.
    At this point, using iWeb, I embedded the presentations on a web page using the appropriate snippet.
    Browsing the generated web pages using any Mac, I can see all of the Flash presentations.
    Browsing the generated web pages using any Windows based machine, I CANNOT see any of the Flash presentations.
    All of that leads to the following question:
    I'd like to generate slideshows using the photos I have gathered in iPhoto. However, given the problems I have experienced to date, it would seem that I should consider using something other than iPhoto to generate the slide shows. It is an absolute requirement that whatever I generate be viewable using any browser.
    Can someone recommend a product (or process) that uses (interacts) with iPhoto to generate a variety of presentations that can be viewed using any browser?
    Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Do you have a MobileMe account? If so create a MMe gallery in iPhoto with the movies and publish. Then any browser will be able to view the slideshow movies. This gallery is an example: Movie Gallery
    HOWEVER, be sure that your movies do not have a blank first frame so it doesn't look like mine does. I'm in the process of removing those blank frames. But you can see the concept.

  • I can't view my photos large, it just opens to a blank screen when I click on the thumbnail...

    I just recently reinstalled everything on my computer and restored it from my hard drive but now, although the tumbnails are viewable and I can cut and paste the photos into other applications and view it in preview, I can't view it large, fullscreen or in the edit screen when I select it within iPhoto.
    Any ideas?

    Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Can you block certain photo galleries so people can only view certain ones?

    If I create a website in iWeb and I want to post a photo gallery that I have uploaded to my mobileme account, is there a way to have it so that people who click on that gallery can ONLY VIEW THAT SINGLE gallery, and not be able to see any of my other online galleries?

    Yes, you can. There's an option in the gallery's setting, "Hide Album on my gallery page", which will isolate it from the other galleries, both on the main gallery page and in that particular gallery. This gallery is an exmaple of that.
    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. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. 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.
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Using TV to view slideshow

    Help! Can anyone advise where I may be going wrong? I'm trying to view a photo slideshow on my TV using the Component AV cable, but all I get is a blank TV screen.
    I've got a digital TV (so I don't think that's the problem), I've connected the blue, green and red VIDEO wires into the back of the TV into the corresponding sockets (labelled "Component") and connected up the AUDIO wires as well. I've turned the iPhone on, selected a slideshow and all I get is a blank TV. And yes, I have turned on the TV!!!!
    I've tried switching between PAL and NTSC (in the "TV Out" menu under "Settings") but that doesn't seem to make any difference.
    Can anyone help?
    Thank you
    MPP35

    You can indeed view a photo slideshow from your iPhone on a TV.
    Connect you iPhone to your TV using the appropriate cable (component AV in your case). Make sure your TV is set to the correct input (AV4 on my TV). Switch on the iPhone and select the Photos app. Select the album you wish to view and tap the Play symbol at the bottom of the screen. The slideshow should now appear on your TV screen.
    As far as settings go, mine are as follows:
    Settings - iPod - TV Out
    Widescreen ON
    TV Signal PAL (I live in a PAL region).
    The above works for me. Possible suggestions as to why it's not working for you:
    Have you got the correct cable?
    Is it plugged into the correct sockets on your TV?
    Have you actually tapped play? In my experience still photos don't show up on the TV but the slideshow does.
    Sorry I can't be of any more help. Good luck.

  • Can't view pictures after update to 08

    I recently updated to Ilife 08. After the holidays I downloaded pictures from my digital canon rebel camera as usual. I can see the new pictures as smaller thumbnails but if I increase the size of the thumbnail, they disappear and I get a gray dashed box. If I click the image (when I can see it) I get a black screen with a big gray exclamation point.
    All of my photos prior to the update are fine and I can view and edit them as usual. It is just since the update. I worked with an apple tech and saw that the photos were actually there and tried to import them from a copy of my photo library. But I still can't view them all. Does anyone have any ideas?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    The ! or ? turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    The most common cause of this is User Activity in the iPhoto Library Folder in the Finder.
    Have you altered, moved or renamed anything in the iPhoto Library Folder?
    If you haven't, then try rebuilding the database. Hold down the apple and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    If that fails the you may have a damaged database:
    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums back.
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

  • Updated my iPhoto 7 and can't view any of my pictures

    I updated my iPhoto 7 and now I can't view any of my thumbnails or pictures.

    Kellie:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Do you have a backup copy of your iPhoto 6 library folder? Also do you get an "!" in the window when you try to view the photo in the edit mode? If you do then iPHoto has lost the link to the files. Try rebuilding the library as follows: launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options.
    If that doesn't resurrect the library you'll have to start over with a new library and import the Originals folder from the old library as follows:
    Creating a new library while preserving the Events from the original library.
    Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
    Open the library package like this.
    Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    Drag the Originals folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
    This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library if you have the Finder checkbox unchecked in the Events preference pane.
    Do you Twango?

  • How to view Slideshows/Movies created in my Mac-Mini´s iPhoto, on iPad 3

    Slideshows I have in iPhoto on my mac-mini, do not show up in the iPhoto on my iPad 3 (Just Photos, Events & Albums).
    How do I get the slideshows (Saved with music in Mac-iPhoto), to show in my iPad´s iPhoto?
    Do I need another app for this?
    By the way, the same applies to the iMovie on my iPad (Do I need to import the movies/Slideshows
    from iPhoto (Mac) into iMovie (Mac) to be able to see them on my iPad?
    All I want to do is view Slideshows/Movies created in my Mac-Mini´s iPhoto,
    on my New iPad (In iPhoto or iMovie if possible).
    Thanks in advance for any help

    Thanks for the tip Demo!
    Sadly it is so.
    Don't know why Apple didn't include slideshows into the iPhoto for iPads!
    Solved the problem with Phtosync & Sugarsync Apps.
    Another super apps for transfering Movies/Slideshows to your iPod, is VLCstreamer.
    You can even watch movies that are on your Mac or extension drives via WiFi , streamed to the iPad
    without even having to upload them to the pad (Which you can do also !).

    Hi Sandy,
    The slideshow in Starter Edition has very basic functionality. To be able to create a slideshow with music and other advanced options, you would need to use Photoshop Elements Software.
