Disappearing slide show...

I created a page and inserted a lightbox slideshow - using the new software out today.  When I preview on catalyst, the main screen doesn't appear but the thumbnails do.  When I click on a thumbnail they disappear and the main screen comes back. 
I see no apparent controls for this. 
Appreciate any ideas.

This is what a Lightbox slideshow does. The term Lightbox indicates a window that "pops up" over the top of the page to show the image or content over the top of the existing page. It is a common web paradigm, and is what the Lightbox Slideshow is supposed to do. If you don't want this behavior, you can use one of the other slideshow types, or change the options of your existing slideshow by modifying the options. The options are available by selecting the slideshow, and clicking on the little blue arrow that appears next to the selection. In the popup dialog there, you can modify the options of the slideshow, including whether or not it is a Lightbox type slideshow.
Hope that clears things up.

  • The slide show on the homepage disappears whenever in browser editing is used. How do I fix this?

    I have a slide show on the homepage of a website that is hosted on BC. Every time my client makes changes to text elsewhere on the page, it causes the slide show to disappear. Anybody know what's happening and how I can fix it?

    Sorry but I don't use Windows and you didn't say which version you have. Go here: http://www.microsoft.com and search for the answer.

  • Can I mimic a 'slide show' of stills and videos with this technique

    I want to be able to mimic an old fashioned slide show on a Blu-ray disk, except that each 'slide' – I'll call them items – could be a true still, or a still with pan/zoom, or even a short video. Whatever a particular item is, I want to click a button and the show advances to the next item. If the next item is a video, the video pauses on the last frame when it is finished.
    Just like the old magazine full of slides, imagine a folder full of items – some may be stills, some videos. After importing into Encore, setting up the navigation and menus, and then burning to Blu-ray, I want to be able to play them in sequence at the press of the Enter button.
    I'm pretty much a novice with Encore, and to save spending more time reading the manual, I thought I'd ask if I can mimic a slide show in Encore with the technique described below. I got the idea from page 152 of the PDF manual:
    The buttons on a menu are the primary navigation tool for the viewer. They control how the viewer steps through the project. Each button in a menu must lead to another menu, a timeline, a chapter, a playlist, a chapter playlist, or a slide show.
    My limited experience with Encore is to set up a series of videos on a single timeline, and generate one menu with a "Start" button on it. When the Blu-ray starts up, the Start screen appears and stays there until I press Enter. Works well.
    A slide show of stills using buttons only
    So I thought: to generate my old-fashioned slide show (ignore videos for the moment), I would use the buttons themselves as the stills, taking my queue from the quote above: "Each button in a menu must lead to another menu…". My slide show would consist of jumping from one menu to the next. This leads to my first question:
    Q1: Is it possible for a menu to have a full-screen button, call it the Image Button, that is actually the still image that is desired to be shown? So the viewer sees the Image Button, thinks it's the image (which it is), but it is actually a button. When the viewer presses Enter, the button activates and goes to the next menu which also happens to be the next full-screen image. The viewer is jumping from Image Button to Image Button, with the buttons filling the screen and being the actual images.
    A slide show including videos
    To include a video in the slide show, the destination when Enter is pressed would be a timeline with the appropriate video. At the end of this video, the navigation would lead to a menu which has an Image Button of the last frame of the video. The effect is that the video is paused on the last frame, waiting for the user to hit Enter to advance to the next item (still or video).
    If there is an easier way to mimic a slide show of stills and videos, please let me know.

    Stan – I posted 3 years ago in the Keynote Forums (I'm on Mac) about this sort of thing, knowing that eventually I would want to do it. The answer came back then that Keynote might have problems. So I've recently posted again about Keynote, but no responses as yet.
    I expected problems with Encore and welcome some of them. Overcoming problems is the best way to become intimately involved with software.
    I'm glad you asked why I don't just use Powerpoint (or Keynote in my case). Now's my chance to clarify my thoughts:
    Macs do not upscale very well. Sometimes I may want to show part of a DVD. I've tested playing a DVD on my iMac versus on a Oppo BDP93, fed to a BenQ W7000 projector throwing a 3 metre image. There is an obvious difference in image quality because the Oppo, being hardware based, can interpolate in real time as it scales from 576p (PAL) to 1080P. DVD Player on my iMac simply magnifies the image, resulting in obvious pixellation.
    Dissolves and complex effects in Premier challenge any software based h.264 player. I don't like to see decoding artifacts, for example, during a dissolve while a part of the image is also reducing in size, spinning, and disappearing into the distance. An extreme example, but an effect I used once. From my reading of blu-ray player reviews – and from my limited testing – all blu-ray players can easily handle the highest bit rates from a blu-ray disk.
    I don't have a laptop so I'd have to buy one. I'd rather spend the money on a dedicated player if that route turns out to be suitable.
    I don't trust computers for a presentation. Too unreliable. When I was showing multiscreen audio visuals in the 1980s (4-6 projectors), I always had a backup Tascam 4-track with me, back up soundtrack on tape, back up amp, and a backup slide projector. Even had a backup amp in the car. Speakers, well, if one failed I had two there anyway. With digital, to feel comfortable, I'd have to buy a second laptop. A good quality, backup Blu-ray player can be had for $100. And yes, I do have a backup W7000. I don't trust digital projectors either.
    Running a presentation from a laptop always looks amateurish to me. Someone hunched over a tiny screen, fooling around with Windows or OSX. And usually it's all mirrored on the big screen for everyone to see. I'm never impressed. I want to replicate a cinema experience as closely as possible. Darkness, the audience hushed, and up comes the first image.
    Any suggestions about automatically linking a whole heap of menus?

  • Timing of text box will not appear.  My text boxes stop working on slide 5 and they will not work for the remainder of the slide show.

    Timing of text box not working.  I get the first few slides to work and then on slide 5 my text boxes will not appear.  And they do not appear for the rest of the slide show.   Help anyone.

    Text caption is timed to appear at 2 seconds, but you have a click box at 0sec. Its duration is very short, which means that I cannot see if there is a pause. I suspect this click box is pausing at the end of its timeline, which is at 0.3secs and the Text caption at 2 seconds will not appear before the user has clicked on that click box. The timeline is the core of Captivate, learn at least how to read it.
    Tiny Timeline Tidbits - Captivate blog
    If you want the green text caption 'Click on...' to appear right at the beginning of the slide, you have to check its Timing accordion: set it to start at 0 secs instead of 2 secs and extend its duration to the 'rest of the slide'.
    I don't know what is in the Group. That group and the HIghlight box will disappear at 3 seconds. Or maybe the action that is triggered by the Clickbox is different from 'Continue'?

  • 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.

  • Trouble adding iTunes songs to slide show displays

    When displaying a group of photos in a slide show (view photos in full screen), I am unable to use my iTunes songs. I know how to "browse" and add the sample music from my music files (and that works fine), but it won't work w/my iTunes songs. I click on the iTunes file and it shows me the artists. I can then click on the folder and choose one of the songs. However, when I try to "Select" or "Open" the song, the title of the song disappears and it reads "No items match your search".
    I am able to open and listen to my iTunes songs when I am not in PSE. I have PSE 7, and am new to PSE.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    My guess is that your songs in iTunes are not in a file format that PSE can use - what format are they? And they might also have DRM (digital rights) restrictions.
    I suggest that you try using iTunes to burn an mp3 file of one of the songs that you wish to use and then try that mp3 file in the PSE slide show.

  • Missing images in slide shows?

    does anyone know why some jpgs disappear after a few days in keynote files? I create slide shows and import images, save the files and everything seems fine. A few days later when I return to the document, some images are missing, with just a question mark and a gray rectangle remaining. Text below is still there. This can happen to four or five slides out of 30 in a document. It is very annoying and doesn't give me much confidence in the program.

    I have been having this problem alot. I design slides on my laptop at home and transfer them via cd or jumpdrive to the computers on show site. More often than not, I spend the first day fixing many broken links to images and movies. Fortunately, I know this will happen so I bring all my assets with me. If I thought I could just bring the Keynote file (like I should be able to) I would be SOL. This especially scares me when I design the slides but someone else works with them on site. They probably won't know what to do when the assets go missing.
    This last show, I also had a few corrrupt movies causing Keynote to crash. The original movies themselves are fine, it's whatever got saved to the archive. If I simply selected the thumbnail or master of the slide containing the movie in edit mode, Keynote would crash. I had to create a new Keynote file, copy into it all the good slides and redo the crashing ones. Very frustrating. Once I had all my Keynotes straightened out on the show computers, they ran fine.
    Something just isn't very robust with the creation of the Keynote archives.

  • Cannot export slide shows with iPhoto 9.6 and OS 10.10

    Hallo!
    I upgraded to Yosemite last Friday. Everything seems to work fine only iPhoto 9.6 makes some troubles. I cannot export any slide shows. When I click on "export" the small window opens as always before, the first pic is shown in this window, after that the window disappears and nothing else happens. iPhoto doesn't crash, but it also doesn't export any slide shows.
    Does anyone have an idea what the reason could be?
    Thanks and best regards from Klosterneuburg/Austria
    Andy

    Some folks have fixed this by reinstalling iPhoto:
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
    For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    *Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • Image vibrations in display slide show on iPad and Apple TV

    I am using iPhoto 11 to create slide shows. I use the standard export option for I wish to run the same movie on iPhone, iPad and Apple TV.
    Running the slide show in iPhoto the quality is good, however on iPad and Apple TV some of the images become very unstable and vibrate or shake for some seconds.

    Rentals are one-time only downloads, they will not show on other devices/computers for redownloading.
    If you rent a film on your iPad or Apple TV then you can only watch it on that device. If you rent it on your Mac then you can move it from there to your iPhone or your Apple TV (if it's a first gen Apple TV) : FAQs about renting movies from the iTunes Store :
    If you rented the movie on your computer, you can move it to an iOS device or Apple TV (1st generation). To do this, connect the devices and sync using USB. When you move a rented movie from your computer, it will disappear from your computer’s iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as much as you want, but you can only have it on one device at a time.
    If you rented the movie on your iOS device or Apple TV, you can’t move it to any other device.

  • Slide show crashes after 9.3 upgrade

    After the upgrade when I try to run a slide show the program hangs and then crashes. Tried restart and rebuliding but no effect. What now?

    Hey Guys,
    After recent SMC+EFI update on Macbook Air (Mid 2013) OSX v10.9.3, my internal audio device disappeared,
    I tried everything I could find in google with no luck. (NPRAM+SMC reset, reloading kents etc.)
    THIS IS WHAT SOLVED THE PROBLEM FOR ME:
    1. I opened /System/Library/Extensions folder, there I found besides the usual AppleHDA.kext, also an AppleHDA.kext.disabled one.
    2. I switched between them (swapped their names, sometimes you'll have to do it from the "get info" menu to take effect)
    -- if you don't have this AppleHDA.kext.disabled one, try searching for one lil older than yours in the internet
    3. then I unloaded and reloaded the kent dir again-
    sudo kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext
    sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext
    And voila!
    Hope it helps someone, as I spent hours until getting this to work again

  • Pictures lost in Slide Show

    I added pictures from my flash drive into a slide show in Elements 6.0.  I saved the slide show as a project.  Several days later when I opened the project from the Organizer, the slides were black except for the text I had added.  I assume I have lost the link to my pictures although I have not moved the flash drive since I made the slide show.  How can I retrieve my pictures?

    The photos have never appeard in Organizer because I imported them from my Flash Drive directly into the slide show.  I have, however, opened,
    edited, saved, closed, and reopened the slide show several times and the pictures were in the slide show. Now, all of a sudden, they have disappeared.
    I was hoping to avoid saving the pictures in Organizer before adding them to the slide show... must I do that?

  • Missing Arrow pictures in iWeb Slide Show

    iWeb creates navigation items for slide shows created with photo pages.
    Now due to the closing down of me.com these images have disappeared.
    Here an example of one of these items:
    http://www.me.com/1/slideshow/images/arrow_right_on.png
    I use iWeb 3.0.4.
    It's an oversight that is not very Apple like, please get these images back on the server quickly, to confirm that you are a company that puts quality first. Thank you!

    @roger
    Why should this be a problem?
    it would be a problem when you design web sites for multi client:
    1) it's not fair to one client to be leeched by others.
    2) when the image host server goes down, other clients are hosed... just like with mme.
    but if you have a neater solution please publish it
    what's there for me to publish, it's an installation package and I have it.
    @roddy
    Why would you want to crticise OT's method
    not crticising, just pointing out the flaws... it's an open forum.
    It may be that the iWPopUpSlideshow.js is not the "proper place" to modify the slideshow but it works.
    The "missing control background image" is easily fixed by changing the file paths in the iWPopUpSlideshow.css file in the resources folder.
    that's just to prove iWPopUpSlideshow.js is not the proper place.
    hint: slideshow.html is the file uses both iWPopUpSlideshow.js and iWPopUpSlideshow.css, start from there.
    I don't see anybody coming up with something better and this is
    yes I do have installation package for it, but with your (and other poeple's) snipy remarks at me... karma is...

  • Missing slide show photos

    I just upgraded to PSE7 from PSE5 and converted the catolog ok. A slide show I had just made in 5 has the index photo in the catolog, but comes up with empty photos. The blank frames are there with the time for the slide and the total running time for the show. What happened to the photos?

    > Downloaded psedbtool. It works but I can't get the output.log It runs its diagnostic then disappears.
    You need to start a command prompt and then type the command in, as described in steps 2-4 of the download instructions linked above . If you simply double-click psedbtool.exe, its window will close immediately after running.
    >All the pictures seem to be in the organizer. They just don't come up for the old slide show I did.
    What about my question 2 from the previous post? This will indicate whether the problem is just with the slide show itself or with the photos that are included in the slide show.
    > I just wonder if it would be easier just to redo the show.
    If you catalog has otherwise converted fine, then it may be easiest to redo the show. But the problems with this slide show may indicate other catalog problems with the conversion that could be still lurking.
    > I have the one from Ver 5 on CD. Could I copy it back into Ver 7?
    No, that wont work. The only way to get a PSE 5 slide show into PSE 7 is to convert the catalog containing the slide show.

  • Export indesign slide show as swf/pdf

    Hello,
    I try to export a slide-show containing buttons and flv-movies as pdf and as swf.
    SWF-export:
    In the exported swf file when viewed with the Firefox browser (Flash Player 16 installed) the movies disappear when I try to play them. However everything else including the buttons do work fine. The same problem I have with other browsers (Internet Explorer, Opera) as well as the “Standalone Flash Player” and the freely available “SWF Player 2.6”. Only when I play the swf-file with “Adobe Flash Player 11.2 r202” (outside the browser) the movies are streamed when clicked on. However here the movie frame has not the correct size and is moved to the upper left corner.
    PDF-export:
    When exporting the same indesign file as PDF and viewed via Adobe Acrobat Pro (Version 10.1.13) the buttons to switch to previous or next page do work fine. Also the movies are streamed when clicked on. However now the buttons to switch to next or previous status of multistate objects do not work.
    System specifications: Indesign CS6, 64bit, Windows 7
    Thank you for any suggestion,
    Finn

  • Can music downloaded from iTunes be added to a slide show in Elements 12?

    Can music downloaded from iTunes be added to a slide show in Elements 12? I can't get it to load into Photoshop Elements. When I finally get to the file it kind of just disappears. Do I have to get the song from someplace else?

    Barbara, I don't know how to get to the artwork to remove it. I saw a post on this forum on how to show hidden files and went to the control panel and followed the instructions. I still can't see any hidden files or artwork. Hope you can tell me where I am going wrong.
