Controlling the Photo Slideshow thru a remote

I have my itouch hooked up to my tv via the docking station and the composite av cables. I want to know if there is a way to have the little white remote control (advance, pause, etc.) the photo slideshow. Right now if press those buttons during the photo slideshow, it just starts controlling the music.
Please let me know if there is a way to change it to have the white little remote control the photo slideshow.

How can I get the standard Adobe CS4 sample templates, like the photo slideshow? Thanks

I just got Flash CS4. I think it is supposed to have several categories of templates. I only have the advertising category. How can I get the standard Adobe CS4 sample templates, like the photo slideshow? I cannot find anyplace on the Adobe.com site for template downloads.
Thanks
Mark

I have the same question-- I don't see any template categories apart from "Advertising"-- where are they?

Controlling the photos I see on screen saver

How can I control the photos I see on my Apple TV screen saver when I stream from my iCloud account

A small portion of the flash drive is used to temporarily cache photos for screensaver, it will vary slightly but it's typically around 100. If you want to have control then it would be best to create a shared photo stream (via iCloud) or album (via computer) to be used specifically for this purpose.

Why does Adobe Acrobat now control the photos on my pc?

Why does Adobe Acrobat now control the photos on my pc?

Hi,
Thank you for your reply.
After I downloaded Acrobat, Adobe Reader tries to control viewing of my photos. When I plug my digital camera into the PC, all the files are labeled “PDF”; the files still have the .jpg extension, though. For photos on my PC, when I try to open them, Adobe reader insists on opening them, but it can’t, and I get the message:
“Adobe Reader could not open photo.jpg because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged”
I attached several photos to an e-mail that I sent after downloading Acrobat, and I could not open the photos before sending the e-mail (in order to verify that they were the correct photos before I sent the e-mail). Adobe Reader was my only option when I clicked “open” to view a photo, and it would not open the photo.
I assume that I did something during the Acrobat download process that has caused this situation. My plan is to uninstall Acrobat and then re-install it and this will hopefully remove this situation.
Any suggestions you have about this situation would be greatly appreciated.

Can 2 iPhones control the same iTunes Library with Remote?

Hi,
Does anyone know if you can authorize 2 iPhones to control the same iTunes library using the iPhone Remote app? Or can only one iPhone be authorized at any one time?
Thanks!

Hey John,
Yes, you can have multiple iPhones remote controlling iTunes.

How do I control the photo order in albums transfered to the ipad?

I sync a file of photo albums from my Mac to my iPad. Sometimes the order is alphabetic based on the name of each photo (desired) and sometimes the order is some other order perhaps based on when the picture was taken. How do I ensure that the photos come in in alphabetic order? (i.e. Haiti-101, Haiti-102...)

iOS: Understanding photo sorting
And the article states .....
If you are using iPhoto or Aperture for Mac OS X, your photos automatically sort on your device in the same order in which they are sorted in iPhoto or Aperture. Changes made to the sorting of your pictures in your iPhoto or Aperture albums and events are reflected on the device after syncing.

Using iDVD, I've no problem creating a slideshow, but I want to add three seperate sound files, in this case speeches I've got in iTunes. I want to create three individual buttons/sub menu to access them individually from the photos. Can anyone help

Using iDVD I've no problem creating a slideshow, but am having problems trying to add three seperate sound files in this case three speeches that I hold in iTunes. I want to be able to access them individually and seperately from the photo slideshow. Can anyone advise if this can be done and if it can, how I go about creating the seperate menu and buttons.

If you'd like to integrate the speeches with the slideshow, I'd do that in iMovie where you'll have more control over the timing. Use chapter markers at the beginning of each speech so the viewer can jump to a particular speech (note that chapter markers advance the viewer to a particular spot -- the viewer keeps watching the rest of the video until the end of everything or until they use the remote's menu button).
If you're just wanting the speeches to be on the DVD so people can listen to the speeches after seeing your slideshow, you could:
- use iDVD or iMovie to make a "slideshow" with just 1 image matching the length of a speech.
- create three submenus and use the speeches as menu music. Here's a (random) video on creating submenus:

How to make a photo slideshow with next button

Is it possible to make a photo slideshow for a dvd that will use the next button to go forward to the next photo? Can I import a video from another dvd and include it in the same dvd on which I put the photo slideshow? They might fit: 220 mb of photos and the video dvd is 2.6 gb

Hi arthurav42
Welcome to apple discussions. First thing to mention is that iDvd doesn't look at MB's or file sizes (excluding the dvd-rom section of the dvd). Rather, it looks at QT playback in hours and minutes. We call this total run time and it is not to exceed 2 hours / 120 minutes for a SL Dvd-R (and about twice that for DL).
As to your first question, Is it possible to make a photo slideshow for a dvd that will use the next button to go forward to the next photo? The direct answer is not within iDvd. You'd need apple's pro apps FCS/DVDSP in order to add a next button to individual photos contained within a manual slideshow.
However, one may be able to simulate this feature in iDvd with the use of a graphics app like Adobe PS in which one could add an arrow to any given jpeg / photo. It wouldn't highlight the button itself after it's selected on a remote / clicked but it would move directly to the next image once a person clicks on it (or anywhere else on the image for that matter).
As for the second question, Can I import a video from another dvd and include it in the same dvd on which I put the photo slideshow? ..... Again the answer is yes within DVDSP and not directly within iDvd (you'd need a third party app like DVDXDV from which one can convert to a QT file for use within any of the i-apps or pro apps for that matter like DVDSP). Once converted, simply add the movie to the slideshow feature in iDvd. And yes it's possible to add both photos and movies to the slideshow in iDvd. For example:

How to create a photo slideshow in my movie

Hello all,
Im woking on my first movie with Premier Elements 12 and I can not figure out how to include a slideshow of pictures at the end of my movie.
Of course I can drag the photos on the timeline and use trancients in between but there is nothing I can do with the picture like editting/cut parts off, make them black/white and use movement effects for example.
Isnt this an option/included in Premiere lements 12 ?
I just bought the software but also played around with the trial of Cyberlink Powerdirector which has this handy magic function to select all pictures at once and create different/random trancirents and effects and pictures could be editted also.
This is what Im after but I can not find how to do this stuff in Premiere lements 12.
Hope someone can help me out.
Thatnks in advance

AlexSan
Do you have Photoshop Elements 12 as well as Premiere Elements 12?
What is this "movie" that the photo slideshow is going to be at the end of? A video? If so, what are the
properties of that video...video and audio compressions, frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, file extension, pixel aspect ratio?
What is your intended final product...DVD-VIDEO standard or widescreen on DVD disc, AVCHD on DVD disc, or Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc?
With the above information, I will suggest some approaches that you might want to look into.
Thanks.

How to display a photo slideshow in Widescreen 16x9 format?

I just bought a 5g iPod and the A/V connection kit. I can play a photo slideshow on my 16x9 TV, but it stretches the photos to fit the screen, so they are out of proper aspect ratio. Is there a way to tell my iPod that it should be displaying the photos on a 16x9 screen?
I understand that there is a widescreen option in the Video playback menu, but this does not seem to have any effect on the output of photo slideshows.

Jon,
See if this works. It may or may not.
Go to videos-->video settings-->Widescreen-->On
See if now when you play the photo slideshow it works right.
Now, if it doesn't then I don't think there is much you can do.
Tell Apple about the issue (if the steps above don't solve it)

IPhone 4 HDMI output for photo slideshow. Aspect ratio squished?

Bought the Apple Digital AV Adapter and tested it today. Hooked it up via an HDMI cable to a little HD TV. Videos (YouTube or in Photo Gallery) display as they should, in widescreen just as they do on the screen. However, when I start the photo slideshow the photos are squished to the center. A full landscape photo that takes up the whole iPhone screen is squished into a square in the center of the screen. Vertical pictures are also squished to the center, distorting the ratio. When the slideshow comes to a video in my library, it displays correctly.
I talked to Apple by chat and phone and they hadn't heard of this. Can't find anything on the web. I am running the newest iOS 5. There aren't any settings to adjust the video output in settings. If the videos were squished also it would make sense...but they aren't so it doesn't.
Anyone have any ideas?

thanks for the tip, i am extremely frustrated with imovie right now. i have a slideshow of a wedding i went to that i desperately want to share but i cant export to a good enough quality. does that export setting put the video in a format you can use on youtube or vimeo?
thanks!

Photo slideshows

Ok, here's the problem.
I've put all my pictures in slideshows on iphoto and assigned them music. The music works fine with the slideshow on
apple tv but the slideshow skips through pictures too fast and the slideshow repeats.
These problems persist no matter what i try to do to change the settings. For example, i've tried changing the slideshow speed in the photo slideshow settings on apple tv but the speed does not change. I've also tried changing the speed in the slideshow on iphoto but again the speed of the slideshow does not change. Same goes for setting the "repeat" to "off." It just repeats anyway
Is anyone else having the same problems or is it just me??

Your probem sounds similar to what I was exeriencing with iPhoto Slideshows and my ATV. On my MacBook the music and slideshow played perfectly. On my ATV one slideshow plays fine, with others the slideshows ends, before the music is over and both stop out of sync. Checked all the settings on the slideshow that works, against those that would and everything was the same. Very strange....

Photo slideshow does not work?

I tried numerous times to make the photo slideshow feature on ipod working it still does not work. I tried with different folders and albums.
What happens is I set up all the photo slideshow settings on the ipod, select the first picture in the album on the ipod and after the first picture the screen goes black and does not show transitions.
It was working just fine a couple days ago and now the transitions do not work at all.
Any suggestions?

Try the five R's. One of those methods should fix it.

Shuffling Songs when in Photo Slideshow

I can't figure out how to shuffle the songs on selected playlist when viewing the photo slideshow. Selecting shuffle songs in the main menu doesn't work while in the slideshow; it always starts with the first song in the series and doesn't shuffle. Am I missing something here?

not sure about that, but I think the slideshow function could definitely be improved
