Control Bar in Slide Show

7.1.3
Is there a way to get rid of the control bar which pops up anytime you move the mouse during the slide show? I am putting together an audio visual presentation with two laptops and a bunch of other stuff.
(video/audio mixer, stage lighting etc.) With a split screen I can run iPhoto/iMovie from either laptop on the "big" screen while controlling the sound from the laptop through the small screen....
Problem is, while the audience is watching the big screen, and I touch the mouse, the control bar shows up at the bottom of their screen......no good....
Thanks.

You're rather far beyond the intended uses of iPhoto there my friend. No there's no way to stop that menu appearing. You might be best to consider using a different application or export the slideshow as a Quicktime Movie. Alternative apps which might help are PhotoToMovie or PhotoPresenter, both of which integrate with iPhoto.

Controlling Speed In Slide Shows???

Is there a way to control the speed in which the pictures move through the slide show? I feel that the initial setting is to quick.

Control icons on slide show

In photoshopCS3/web photo gallery, how can one add labels to the control icons on the bottom left of the slide show?

You will have to edit the HTML code or the linked source images/ Flash content thatz make up the buttons.

I have added some sound files to my daughter's website (using Homestead as host). Sound files control bar doesn't show up right (but it does in IE). Any ideas?

In Firefox the control bar is gray and the play button kind of fades into the bar. In IE, it looks like it is suppose to - dark grey/black control bar with a big blue circle (on the left) with a bright white arrow inside of it (making it obvious as to how to play the mp3).

That interface is entirely based on what plugin is being used. For IE, it looks like Windows Media Player, and in your Firefox screenshot, it looks like the QuickTime plugin is being used.
Attached is what it looks like for me (Firefox on Mac). And it looks that way in Safari as well.
As a user, you could stop Quicktime from being used for ''audio/mpeg'' files, using the instructions at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/quicktime-plugin-play-audio-and-video#w_embedded-media
As a web-developer, if you want to control the media player interface, it might be better to convert your site to HTML5, then use the <audio> tag which doesn't require any plugin. For more info, read https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Using_HTML5_audio_and_video
You should probably ask in a web-developers forum.

Disabling the control in a slide show

I am creating a flash slide presentation with my own buttons
to navigate through the slides. My question is how do I disable the
built in navigation so the user has to use my buttons instead of
the keyboard arrows or by clicking on the screen?

1. Activate "thumbnails" in the configuration panel
2. Select one Thumbnail.
3. Rightclick and choose "Select same"
4. Press "backspace"
5. Open the configuration panel and load the new images.

Problem controlling Flash Slide Show

I would like to use a static image to control a flash slide
show; in which clicking the image would start the preloader and the
slide show at the same time. I have just inserted a flash slide
show which immediately preloads and starts the slide show when the
webpage is loaded. I have inserted a large play button image and
assigned the proper behavior attributes to try and control the
slide show without any success. Here is the webpage:
http://www.ronusa.com/buick_grand_national.htm
Please see the attached code for the slide show. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Ned. When I say slide I mean instead of a scene. There is a presentation and then the slide under it. If I click on the presentation it has one key frame and I think that is what's playing when I try to import the swf into a video editing program or try to export to a quicktime movie. Its like it never plays the slide, just the presentation which has nothing but the one key frame. When I play just the swf it does fine, but I can't export it to a quicktime movie.
The design of the slide is just text, jpgs and music transitioning in and out.
My intention is to import a movie into youtube. For some reason a swf does not import very well. So that is why I wanted to convert the swf to a movie. Thanks again for your help.

Slide Show on Home Page Creates Scroll bar in browser...

I have created my site, and at the tope of it I have a hero Slider Composition with text in it. But, when I view it in the browser, it scrolls to the right. But, if I delete the composition slide show, the scroll bar disappears. I've tried to re-create the slide show, but it continues to do the same thing, I would really appreciate some help quick, in that my site is live. http://www.serpentsndoves.com

Firstly: Congrats on a very cool web design!!
I had a look at the site, and think that what you are seeing is expected behaviour. You have little control over the width of the browser window a viewer might have set when they are viewing your web page. It can be narrower or wider than the page width you set in Muse:
When the browser window is narrower than the width of the web page, the scrollbar at the bottom for right to left movement appears.
When you make the browser window wider than the width of the web page, the scrollbar will disappear as the full width of the page is displayed.
In contrast, if you were to look at the page on an iPad in landscape, the width of the page will snap to the width of the browser window, as mobile browsers behave differently to desktop browsers.

How can I control the music that plays during Apple TV photo slide shows?

I don't want to make my parents listen to Breaking Benjamin music as they watch my photo slide shows on Apple TV. Need something more sedate. But if a B.B. song is in my iTunes music library, it is a candidate for random selection as background music for my slide shows. How do I control what music plays during Apple TV photo slide shows?

What I find is really silly, is the fact the music video's are listed under that artists albums in the Music menu. And when you go into the video 'album' (called 'Unknown' unless you change it) there is an option to shuffle the tracks. Clicking this just results in an error message. So, they should either remove that option if it is a video album, or, better yet, GET IT TO WORK. So silly of them to omit this.
I have submitted feedback.

Where is the frame rate setting control when making a slide show?

I am trying to make a slide show using QuickTime Pro and cannot find the frame rate control.I put all my consectively-numbered jpegs in one folder. I then clicked on "File," the "Open Image Sequence," then a window opened up and I click on the first jpeg in the series of photos I want in my slide show. Then the first image appears in the QT Window. The instructions next say that I should be able to change the rate at which each slide/jpeg appears, but it doesn't tell you where to find the "frame rate" so I can change it. It doesn't appear at all on its own, so where is it? Anything else I'm missing? Thank you.

What version of Photoshop Elements and or Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system?
In addition, could you please clarify?
It sounds like you are creating your slideshow in the Elements Organizer. Where are you seeing these distortions and blurs, in the Elements Organizer Slideshow Editor Filmstrip or in the Premiere Elements workspace after you have transferred the slideshow from the Elements Organizer 9 Slideshow Editor to Premiere Elements workspace?
What are the pixel dimensions of the photos in this slideshow and how many of these photos are in the slideshow? What format are they in..jpg, psd, other?
With regard to what you wrote:
Also how do I transport them from Elements to Premier, it has a tab to do that but when I get to the elements file I don't know where to drag and drop into.
If you are in the Elements Organizer Slideshow Editor and use the Output option Edit with Premiere Elements, then you would expect the automatic transfer of the slideshow to Premiere Elements, with a copy in video format (.psess) in the project media as well as on the Timeline. Nothing for you to drag and drop.
For all those reasons, I am asking for clarification.
Thanks.

After upgrading to Lion, Preview (5.2.2) appears to have lost the facility to run a slide show by using my mouse to click an icon in the visible menu bar, as I could in the previous version. Can I retrieve that icon and thus that facility?

Unfortunately not. Lion has made many adjustments to the previous system. Try opening your pdfs in keynote.

I have 15000 photos in my 1Phooto library in 58 events. I have also made 27 slide shows from some of these events. When opening iPhoto, the photoscome up slmost instantly but the side bar seems to take forever to come up. Is there s limit to the amount of photos yu can have or to the amount if items in the side bar?

Try this basic troubleshooting technique: make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - reboot
4 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

Control bar in ID4 won't show character & paragraph settings

Just switched from ID2 to ID4 and in the old Indesign I always had character styling in the control bar top of the window - font,font size and so on.
I can't get it to show up in the control bar in ID4.
Here's a screen shot of the "customize control panel" screen: (object items are ticked too but the window isn't large enough to show them)
and here's what that gives me, only object items:
even when I switch to the so-called "typography" view, there's no typography in the control bar:
What am I missing????

The Control panel is context sensitive. You need to have the Text tool active.
Typography is one of the standard workspaces that ships with CS4. Workspaces control panel arrangements and available menu commands, but would not, as far as I know, affect what shows or doesn't show in the Control panel, but then I never really bothered with the stock workspaces since I have my own that I prefer.

Manually controlled slide show?

I'm feeling like a bit of an idiot since it seems to me that I should be able to do this, and that it should be in an obvious place ... but I can't find it.
I would like to set up a slide show that advances on a mouse click. I can do what I want by selecting "edit photo using full screen." But then I lose things like transitions and music. I can also do it with the controls on the screen, but that is also less than desirable ... since the controls are on the screen.
I could load the photos into PowerPoint, but then I would have to redo everything if I edited a photo.
Duncan

Duncan:
That can be done by setting the slide timing to 600 seconds in the Setting pane. That will give you ten minutes for each slide and then you can move to the next one with a mouse click. You can use the Apple Remote if you're on a laptop with Photo Booth capability.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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 written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Slide Show Navigation bar

When you create a pdf slide show with Adobes Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0, each slide contains a full navigation bar in the upper right.
When you create a pdf slide show with Photoshop Elements 5.0, you get only < > and an escape arrow in the lower left.
How can you get the full navigation bar using Photoshop Elements?

I doubt there is a video for anything this basic, but you can try searching. I recommend practicing in a copy of the file you intend to place them in so that you don't lose that file due to a learning curve.
If you open the fla's of your navbar, etc, you want copy the timeline. So you select all the layers and frames of the main timeline, right click the selection and choose Copy Frames. Then, in the destination file you should create a new movieclip symbol. Select the first frame of the new symbol, right click and select Paste Frames. All of the layers and frames that you copied should appear in the timeline.
If you happen to have library symbols with the same names in the different files you'll be combining, that could cause a problem as it will prompt you as to whether you want to replace one with the other. So it is best to rename any such symbols before copying them.
