Does iPhoto 6 support full-featured slideshow copying between Macs finally?

Hi,
I created long slideshows with the slideshow feature of iPhoto 5.
It seems that full-featured sharing and copying of that slideshow to another equal equipped Mac is not possible with iPhoto 5. Only the copying of that slideshow as a bare album seems possible with the standard Sharing feature, and with Drag & Drop — while losing all those time consuming optimized transition and timing settings.
Well, for the "best digital lifestyle applications on the planet" (similar called by Steve), I expect that Apple did work on that issue with iPhoto 6. Have they? Does iPhoto 6 integrate a logic step further now, which allows copying of permanent slideshows and photo books between two Macs?
Please let me know of advances or tricks on that hardly missed feature.
I am very curious. Please excuse my English, hope you got the idea.
Kind regards

Hi MArQ,
Unfortunately, nothing has changed in that area.
The only way to do it easily is to create a new library for each slideshow and book specifically. Import the images you are going to use for your book or slideshow and do your book or slideshow in the newly created library.
This library can then be burned to disc and copied to another computer running the same version of iPhoto. Use the Option key when launching iPhoto to open the newly copied library from the disc.

Import the photos and create a small test book -
Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
If the preview is what you want then you can go ahead and create the book, preview it and order knowing tha the printed version will match the preview

Does iPhoto support RAW 7D MK2

Does iPhoto support the format of RAW for the Canon EOS 7D MK2?

Yes if you are running Yosemite and have downloaded and installed the Digital Camera RAW Compatibility 6.01 updater.

If I have a pic in more than one album, does iPhoto make more than one copy of that pic? When I search the file name on finder, it seems to be showing one copy of that file for every album it's in.

No it doesn't. Albums simply reference the photos in the Library. A single shot can be in 100 albus and use no extra disk space at all.
If you have the same shot in two Events then yes, the file is duplicated.

The Finder doesn't really understand the iPhoto Library. It's quite possible for the iPhoto Library to contain many files with the same name. The Library also contains different versions of the same shot - thumbnail, originals and edited version. This is normal.

Does Lion support the old microsoft word for MAC files?

Does Lion support the old microsoft word for MAC files? I have heard that if i down load Lion then my Word files for Mac will not function or work. Is this true?? I don't want to download Lion if this happens.

The file type does not matter, the program you use to open the file does.
You need a newer version of word (or a third party program).
You can use openoffice as well.

Preview does not support PDF features

I have generated a number of PDF files in Adobe Acrobat that are questionnaires. The intent is to have the users fill out forms, click radio buttons and check boxes within the PDF and using buttons embedded on the questionnaire email them back to me. I have run into many problems with my questionnaires by Mac OSX users. It turns out when they open my Questionnaire (PDF) Preview launches instead of Adobe Reader. Evidentially Preview is the default application for PDFs. Preview does not support "calculations" "actions" for buttons including "submit a form" and does not auto font size in the forms they fill out.
Is there something in Preview that causes this issue that preview users need to do? It clearly appears Preview is not a good substitute for Abode Reader that is free and the standard for PDF viewing.

The issue I have run into is that Adobe has generated a way that you can distribute forms to a large group of people, they can in return send back the data that they filled out. Acrobat can then tabulate the data automatically. It is a very powerful tool.
I don't doubt it. However, it is a purely Acrobat solution. I'm sure there is other software that can do the same thing. Have you considered a web site instead? You could build an HTML page to distribute to people and it would have all the same features. Plus, it would work with any web browser.
The problem I have is Apple has decided to make Preview their default PDF reader application. When a Mac users opens the PDF file things may not work and they do not understand why. They get frustrated and quit filling out the form, therefore locking out getting data from all Mac users. This is an unnecessary burden to put on Mac users!
Then why don't you pick a method that would work with a stock MacOS X machine?
Adobe Reader is free so why compete with a free application??
Adobe Reader is free for end users to download. If Apple included it as part of MacOS X, the would have to pay Adobe many millions of dollars. Furthermore, while Acrobat Reader does have many nice features, it is a slow, bloated behemoth that fewer and fewer people want to use anymore. That is why there are so many other PDF viewers these days - people don't like Acrobat Reader.
I just think they should not have a fully functional PDF reader as the default application for PDFs.
Preview is fully functional. But Apple can't read Adobe's mind and support every new feature that Adobe throws in to try to keep customers. Your PDF solution is an Adobe solution. Adobe software just isn't as ubiquitous as it used to be. Times change. I suggest you look into some other method of form distribution, such as HTML and Javascript.

Cannot open FreeHand MX files after copying between Macs

When I copy a FreeHand MX file from one Mac to another, on the new Mac it appears as a "unix executable file" and will not open in FreeHand. Even if I change the Get Info to open in FreeHand, it will open FreeHand, but the file does not open.
I can't help but wonder if this has something to do with FreeHand not having a file extension to identify its files?
Has anyone encountered this, or can suggest a way to get my FreeHand files to open? At times I've not noticed the issue and copied the file back over the original when trying to sync the Macs. This results in complete loss of all my work in the FreeHand file!
iMac G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Well, the execute bit was set, but unfortunately fixing it didn't solve the problem. I went as far as making sure all the copied files had exactly the same permissions as files I've create on the same machine (-rw-r--r--), but opening the file still does nothing but launch FreeHand.
This problem seems to happen when I copy from Mac to Mac over our office network. I have a Mac-formatted USB drive, and I think it doesn't happen when I use that, which is why the problem is inconsistent enough that I sometimes accidently overwrite original files. Curiously, when I connect between these two Macs in the office, one direction (laptop to desktop) acts like I'm connecting to a PC--it has the same three-unit connect window, and claims the desktop is part of "WORKGROUP". This can probably explain why the execute bit got set. (Could this have something to do with how they connect the work computers to the network?)
Unfortunately while this was a true feature of the files, fixing it still has not helped. Any other suggestions?
Thanks

Does iPhoto Support RAW from Nikon D90?

I shoot in RAW. I had a D80 and iPhoto would import my RAW photo files ok. I just got a Nikon D90 and iPhoto will not import my files. Any ideas?
Lee

Lee:
In the meantime you might see if Adobe DNG Converter and Camera Raw 4.6 is compatible with the D90. That would let you convert the RAW files to the DNG (digital negative) format which iPhoto does support. There's other RAW converters available. Go to VersionTracker.com and search for RAW.
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's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Did you know Firefox 4 does not support full frame option in iPlayer or similar?

Both at home & work - using Mac OS 10.5 & 10.6 Firefox 4 will not allow me to view full frame video stream such as BBC iPlayer, 4OD, ITV Player, TVCatchup ....etc, etc.
I have now switched to using Safari & Chrome (which work perfectly) but in the interest of your 'going forward' I thought you'd like to know of this glitch.
All the best

I have Firefox 5.0.1 and the coupon printer I'm trying to use is supported by ActiveX. It appears that 5.0.1 is not compatible with ActiveX. Can you tell me how I can access this installation to print my coupons with Firefox, please? Thanks!

Does iphoto support uploading videos to icloud?

I am having difficulty uploading my videos to icloud via my mac. I can only see my photos on my Ipad despite it having IOS7. Can anyone help?

From the link I posted
What do I need to be able to add videos to a shared stream?
To add videos to a shared stream, you need an iCloud account, a compatible device, and up-to-date software:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 7.0 or later
Mac with OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later and either iPhoto 9.5 or Aperture 3.5
PC with Windows 7 or later and iCloud Control Panel 3.0 or later
SInce you do not have the required software versions you can not use the feature

HT3825 does iphoto support sony cyber-shot

is my sony cyber-shot compatable to my macbook?

Not under Mac OS X 10.6 for RAW. 10.7 supports it with iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4. Unfortunately you'll have to kiss your PowerPC software good bye, unless you want to run a special Parallels solution, or a separate partition running 10.6 on your machine, which would require cloning twice to two separate drives, and partitioning for just a 10.7 system with the iPhoto or Aperture version of your choice, leaving enough room for 10.6 and the applications that need it. For more on upgrading to 10.7 or later see my tip.

Why ios devices does not support Pause feature on camera app

Is there any harm to device if Pause feature will incorporated ?
On iPhone 6 & 6+, iPad Air2 don't have Pause functionality of their Primary Camera app.
Any idea why apple doesn't think to incorporate Pause this feature ?
Thanks.

I know this is discussion portal and we all are apple users. I know, I am not asking to the apple's R & D team to answer my concern...
But my intension to put this question was to get the alternative solution like any other App in App store which offers Pause functionality during Video recording.

Does iPhoto support RAW for Fuji X-S1?

Check to see if the Adobe Raw file converter will work with your raw file format.
