Cover Flow Theme?

Just downloaded the trial version of Keynote and am trying it out. Is there a Cover Flow theme? A way to show photos like you see them in the "Cover Flow" view in iTunes?
-Kirk

No, there's not a "Cover Flow" theme and there's not an effect that allows you to create that look. However, you can send feedback to let Apple know this is something you'd like to see.

Cover Flow in iWeb sites!

I just noticed there's a +Cover Flow+ theme in the new +BannerZest Pro+ ~ to try it out, click on this image and scroll to the bottom of the page:
...Uploading your iWeb site via FTP or to your .Mac account is fully supported from within BannerZest. And this new Pro version integrates seamlessly with media viewers such as LightBox and ShadowBox.

Safari has added this stupid feature to bookmarks called cover flow and it covers up my list of bookmarks so I cannot edit/rearrange them. How do I get rid of the black, useless space in bookmarks, bring back bookmarks manager?

How do I get rid of this annoying feature in Safari known as cover flow which appears as a balck void in bookmarks? the bookmarks manager is nowhere to be found and now I'm going to Google instead of Safari.

Move the mouse pointer to the bottom of the black area.
Mouse pointer should turn into a hand pointer.
Double click.
The Cover Flow should shrink into small black strip at the top.
To revert back, move the mouse pointer to the black strip at the top.
When the pointer turns into a hand pointer, double click.

Cover flow lion finder window

Horrible horrible horrible feature of Lion:
iPhoto is occupied iwth a large upload of images to flickr.
I want to review some more of the images I shot today in thumbnail to
open and start working on them in photoshop without waiting for iPhoto
to finish (this is reason #6099 why I do not let iPhoto control the
location of my photos on the drive, so I can access them without
opening their specific iPhoto library).
I open the enclosing folder for the images, click to view by icon,
enlarge the icons, then click to sort the photos by date, and....COVER
FLOW! they've Cover-Flow-ized the icon view when you do any kind of
sort except by name.
I cannot say how much I hate cover flow--nausea-inducing for the
motion sickness prone, nasty vile scheme in general--and now, it's
dropped the images I can see in one glance at the screen in this icon
by date view of the finder window to ONE, and I can't turn it off. I
do NOT have coverflow checked in view options.
Is there any way to kill coverflow completely in every place they've
put it?
(Feedback already sent to apple, BTW, if you have this problem too, and there's no solution offered by one of the bright folks on this board, please send them some at apple.com/feedback--the place to put feedback for programs like finder that don't have a 'send feedback' menu item))

Support call gave the solution: instead of 'Arrange by', use the 'clean up by' command under the view menu in Finder. This does what arrange by used to, and while the menu options are more limited than 'arrange by', it doesn't default to the cover-flow behavior that is so irritating.
If you hate cover flow like I do, please send them feedback. If enough of us complain about it, maybe they'll stop putting it all over the place.

Few problems/questions! (cover flow, album art...etc)

Ok I finally added my songs to my new IPOD (replaced my old one) and this is my first Ipod with video, color...etc. Its the IPOD Classic 80 GIG.
Well I am having a few problems/questions:
---Why when I hit "Get album art" does it ONLY get art for my videos? It doesn't get any for all 1,500+ songs! Is it because they aren't downloaded from Itunes? If so then why does it do it for the movies then? They aren't from ITunes either!
---With Cover Flow I updated the Album Art myself and have about 700 songs with art now. But I have two problems.
1. It won't display all 700 songs under Cover Flow!
2. It won't show them in order by song name! Can I change that?!? If not then how is it showing them by? What do I need to change?
---Are there any other video types supported besides that on Mpeg4 and that other weird type? If not why not? Its a pain to have to convert everything. Its almost not worth having this video IPOD if you have to go through sop much effort just to watch 1 stupid video. I mean I spent more money on extra programs now for music and videos then I did on the IPOD almost.
---Is there any way to transfer your music from one IPOD to another? I know some people say you can't but why? What about people like me who have music ripped from our own cds and NOTHING from ITunes? Its a REAL pain having to rerip all the cds, put them back on, rename all the songs, fix all the info...etc. Its taken me 4 days now. Apple needs to think about a "IPOD TO IPOD" music transfer kinda program.
---How do you get pics on the IPOD without having to keep them on your PC? I notice it has to SYNC them every time I have it plugged into the PC! But if I tell it NOT to sync pics anymore then they won't stay on the IPOD if turn that option off and unplug the IPOD. Theres got to be another way to add them.

Cover flow on the ipod can only be done (as far as I know) on Album by Artist Name. On iTunes you can change it around

How do I revert back to previous (before 11) itunes. Someone nicked my Album Cover flow, without asking

how do I revert back to previous (before 11) itunes.
Someone nicked my Album Cover flow, without asking. I have snow leopard. I was happy. Just before Christmas as if I havent got enough to do Thank You. I've given Apple loads of money this year--presents and all, the least they could do is tell me, they're going to take stuff off of My computer that I enjoy,/ find very useful/ and worked hard to update all my album covers and have a gallery of my own artwork for my mixes--it was beautiful. When I went to add some more, the facility had been taken away from me. Was so dissapointed. They send me emails all the time to buy the latest must have products. I even did a questionair to help them. They really care for their customers--right. So why couldnt they warn me about this update, its only polite.
If I bought a warm coat some years ago, then the manufatures came round without my knowledge and cut off the left arm, and later told me, their reserch says that people dont use the left arm so much so they have to get rid of it. 1. I think that would be illegal. 2. its impolite not to ask if they could do it. 3. why not give me an options to keep it, seeing as i bought it. 4. its ludicrous.
I trusted Apple-but then -they took my YouTube off my ipad. I cant update to newer software as I will lose some expensive programms (Im not made of money). I also have 2 oldish defunct but fully working laser printers (if they were compatible with new software).
Im not a techky-I just use the stuff, I do art and music and Cover Flow was equipement I used.
I want to get rid of itunes 11, anyhelp out there

How can I get the Cover Flow text to be in all caps

I've only had one problem with the Cover Flow application for iTunes. All of my track names, artists, and album names are in caps on my library. When I switch to the Cover Flow view some songs are displayed with all caps, while others have the song and album in caps, but the artist is in lower case.
I've gone through all of my files and all of them have been correctly entered in all caps, yet Cover Flow still does not display them correctly. I've even gone through every album, got info, and made sure everything was in all caps. Still no succcess.
Any suggestions?
How about creating an option button to control Cover Flow's functioning on the next iTunes version? That would be nice.

Thanks, jere7my.
In other words, I should always make changes to my song text with the Cover Flow view selected.
I would never have the Cover Flow view selected while importing new albums, tracks, and artwork. I switched back to it after I was done personalizing my stuff. Thats when I started to notice they were still in lower case, even though I had changed them.

Cover Flow sorting is wacky (not a compilations issue).

I just purchased a 120GB Classic with the hope that I'd be able to browse my collection of music by album artist. After all but giving up hope, it looks like Cover Flow is almost doing it (on purpose or not, I don't know).
Here's the issue: I tag my .mp3s so that on tracks with multiple artists, they're separated by a "/" -- so, for example, on my Aesop Rock album, "None Shall Pass", track 6 has an artist field of, "Aesop Rock/Breeze Brewin/Cage". I always include the artist in the artist field before I put any of the guest artists.
When I sync this to my iPod, the Cover Flow only shows this as one album (there are four tracks scattered throughout the album with different artists). If Cover Flow was sorting purely by artist, it would have multiple covers. So I'm thinking that I figured out a way to get what I want.
Except the iPod seems to randomly decide which albums it wants to treat this way -- some, such as the Kid Rock album "Cocky" (the one with "Picture" with Sheryl Crow"), are shown as two separate albums in Cover Flow. This doesn't make any sense to me.
All the "sort" fields are blank for all the files, so that can't be what's doing it. If I go under the Artist menu, it shows all the artists just as they're written in the tags.
So what's the deal here? How does Cover Flow really work?
[EDIT] Nevermind, I figured it out. Apparently when you sort by artist, it will give me all the songs with just the artist, and then give me the songs with that artist and any other artist (the slash comes after all the letters alphabetically). So if the artist has more than one album, it doesn't group them together by album.
I guess the "sort field" is the only way to fix it for now.
Message was edited by: Psyact

Using the sort field to try to force things together doesn't quite work, and certainly not when the album artist has more than one album with guests. I think you'll also find there are some enumeration issues in the album menu which may cause the wrong cover to be displayed as you progress through the library. See my recent post on Grouping Tracks Into Albums for a somewhat long, but hopefully comprehensive, exposition of the issues.

Album view and Cover Flow problem

Well, im going to get one of the new ipods soon and they have that Cover Flow feature which is pretty cool. Anyway i have a problem, when i try and sort them by album, i go to Album View and even if the album names are the same, they arnt in the same box, because they have various artists. Ill show some pics now.
http://img530.imageshack.us/img530/9604/probz1nm0.jpg
See how they arnt in the same box because of their artists? Then when i go to Cover Flow tab, to see how it will look on my ipod it comes up like this
http://img530.imageshack.us/img530/6366/probz2wu4.jpg
All the ones without artcovers so far, are all the songs from the album "MOS" like you saw in the previous picture. So does anyone know how to fix that problem? Because i dont want like 20 MOS albums showing up on the Ipod with only 1 song in each of them when i can have them all in one.
Thanks

You need to select the "Compilation" button on each to overide the fact that there is a different artist for each song. think about it, the chances of two different artists having the same name for an album is pretty big. How is any music jukebox supposed ot know that they're the same....
select all the songs, open apple/control "I" and click on compilations on bottom right.

Cover flow and album sort issues

I just got a 80GB iPod classic for Christmas and I have noticed some annoying differences between iTunes cover flow and iPod cover flow:
1. In iTunes cover flow, when you have songs with "Unknown Album", they clutter up the cover flow for each artist. In iPod cover flow, they are sent to the back of the cover flow in a nice little "Various Artists" cover. I like how this works on the iPod better.
2. iTunes cover flow sorts by album artist, so you don't see a separate album for each non-album artist song.
For example: If I set my album artist for the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack to "Saturday Night Fever" (don't ask why, this is how i like it sorted) then I will only see one "Saturday Night Fever" rather than one for Bee Gees, one for Kool & the Gang, etc.
iPod cover flow sorts by artist, so you see a separate album for each non-album artist song. I like the way this works in iTunes better.
3. When sorting by "Album by Year" in iTunes, syncing the iPod doesn't seem to follow the same sorting. Albums are still sorted on the iPod alphabetically. I want them to sort by year on my iPod.
So I would appreciate it if someone could help me with all 3 of these issues. As you can see, sometimes iTunes is better for me, sometimes iPod is better for me.

3. Playlists should be sorted in the same way as they are in iTunes. The Cover Flow order is fixed.
This is not the case, at least not with iTunes 7.5.0.20 and my 80GB Classic running 1.0.3 on it (current version as of this writing). In iTunes, under LIBRARY, I select Music, and I have my music sorted via *Album by Year*. This works perfectly in iTunes. I'll use my Soundgarden library as an example, as it shows the problem nicely.
*_iTunes order_:*
Ultramega OK
Louder Than Love
Screaming Life/Fopp
Badmotorfinger
Superunknown
Songs From The Superunknown
Down on the Upside
A-Sides
That's ordered by date and is perfect. +Ultramega OK+ was released way back in 1988, while A-Sides was released nearly 10 years later in 1997. In Cover Flow View it works great. However, in the iPod it's sorted alphabetically, which is completely wrong:
*_iPod Classic_:*
A-Sides
Badmotorfinger
Down on the Upside
Louder Than Love
Screaming Life/Fopp
Songs From The Superunknown
Superunknown
Ultramega OK
This is totally wrong. And I haven't yet found a way to force it.
Apple, please, this shouldn't be that difficult.

Combining individual songs to show as 1 album in cover flow

I'm manually going through my iTunes library filling in missing album artwork. I haven't really used cover flow because of the fact that I had so few albums that autofilled with album artwork. But I'd like to now, I noticed that a lot of my albums aren't "linked" together as a album and show up individually as their own album. I'll use the Malt Shop Memories set as an example. It's a 10 disc set of oldies that I changed "info" for across the whole album (one disc at a time) I pasted in the album artwork, set disc number, total number of discs, set Album name, and set the genre. Now when I click on the tab to view the library in grouped it shows the album art and one song. Then below it, the album art again and one song etc etc. In coverflow it has a album art icon per song so I can't just click to the next song I have to (in this case) click past 15 songs to get to the next album/disc.
So my question is, how can I fix that lol. I mean isn't it only supposed to show the album art once per album? How do I tell iTunes that this group of songs should be one album? Thanks for any help!

I tried those things in that article. I have a 2 disc set that has various artist but them same album art on both discs.
I highlight all 15 tracks on disc 1 and click on "Get Info" so that I am making changes across all the songs. I set for all of them; Compilation - Yes, Album - Malt Shop... , Disc number - 0f 2, Track Number - of 15, Genre - Oldies, and I paste in artwork that I've copied to the clipboard.
I make sure that not only does it have the correct info in the fields but also that the green check mark is in the corresponding box. I even tried marking them all as (Part of a compilation - NO) then remarking them all at the same time as Compilation - Yes. Still no good, all the info is right and it still shows 1 song as a album.
What am I missing?

Cover Flow won't show JPG preview, only generic JPG icon

Hello,
For some reasons, I don't see JPGs in Cover Flow mode. I can see them in Quick Finder no problem.
I tried the following and toggle the on/off the feature without success: Go to Finder, open a window, and click View>Show View Options. From there, CHECK "Show Item Preview," then click "Use as Defaults."
I exported photos from iPhoto into my desktop but I get the same result. Only generic jpg icon.
BTW, PDFs are fine, excel, word are all fine....
Any idea?

A reboot solved the problem.
I guess this is the workaround for now...

Cover flow dimensions

Hi,
I'm using the "Cover Flow" view in finder and it has an option to turn on the "Dimensions" colum. Which is really handy for my work because it instantly shows the dimensions of all the image files in the window. However, I can only turn this on, in the sub folders of my "Pictures" folders. Does anybody know a hack or an option panel where I can use this for all my other documents besides my photos?
Thanks in advance.

These settings are only avaialble if the contents of the current folder contain them in their metadata. For example, drag a few pictures containing "Dimension" information to a folder that does not have these options, and you will see the folder will now have these options. There is no hack to enable this feature. Ultimately it is always enabled but just limited on a per-folder basis by its applicability and relevance to the folder's contents.

Cover flow column widths

Hi everyone,
Is there any way in which I can set the widths of the columns in the finder window when I am using Cover Flow?
When I open up a new window, the column width for the first column is huge:
So I often resize it manually to a more reasonable size:
The thing is, it always opens up with the huge first column. Is there any way I can make them stay the same size with all new windows?
I have been through the finder options but can't find the answer there. I have also used the "Use as defaults" button in the finder options, but it doesn't stick the column widths.
Anyone got any ideas?

mine starts at the beginning too
but once its started and you stop it
it will not return to the beginning without that slider
where is apple man at????????????????????????

Cover Flow doesn't alway work in finder windows...

Hi,
I have several folders full of photos, most of them are .jpegs. When I open a folder in a finder window I have my standard views displayed at the top:(Icons/List / In columns / Cover Flow). When I click the cover flow button sometimes it will show my photos properly and other times it just shows a blank sheet with .jpeg written on it.
Any ideas why sometimes it work correctly and other times it doesn't??
Thanks,
Gary

I've noticed this occasionally myself, and discovered that there are actually two different problems. One, which is fixable, is that occasionally I run into folders where I get generic jpeg icons in all views, and recently figured out there is something peculiar about those files. In this case all views, all the time, fail to show a thumbnail. The fix is to select all the errant files, and only the errant files, in the folder, bring up the inspector (Command-Option-i), select the wee little multiple files icon at the top, and press Delete. Presto changeo the Finder will now draw the thumbs in Icon and Coverflow views.
The second problem is more perplexing: it seems as if Finder has simply gotten tired of drawing icons. When this happens I've always simply relaunched Finder by holding the Option key, click and hold on the Finder icon in the Dock, and then select Relaunch from the fly-out window. All windows close, the Desktop "blinks" and when you renavigate to the folder Finder draws the icons. Reminds me of an old-time radio with a loose connection that can be brought back to functionality by a quick sharp blow to the chassis...
