Exported slideshow slightly different

When I play a slideshow with music in iPhoto, the slides and music are synced just like I want them. When I export it as a quicktime movie to iDVD, however, that changes slightly as if the slides are running by faster. Is this just a glitch that I have to live with?

Hi cynthia,
right now it is a glitch that many are encountering.
You might trying exporting just the slideshow without the music.
Bring that slideshow into iMovie and adding the audio track there.
Make sure the video and audio match up, then save the slideshow in your Movies folder.
Open iDVD, create a new project, and customize your theme.

Exporting Slideshows in Different Formats

Ok everyone, I'm having a few problems. I just recently ugraded to iPhoto 5.0.4 and everything is fine and dandy, but I'm wondering if there's any way that I can export slideshows that I create in different formats. Let me explain my situation; I'm a high school student in an Advanced Biology class, and our class has it's own website for the projects we do. My teacher has asked me to try to figure out a way to create slideshows with all the pictures we have for the different projects, then save/export them in a format that we can post on a web page. A friend of mine recommended that we make a page with links so that people could select their connection speed and format that they would like to download the file in, for example QuickTime, Real Player, Windows Media, Flash, etc... I've figured out how to export the files in QuickTime and Real Player compatible formats, but that's it. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Criag:
Yes, iPhoto doesn't support the 16:9 format for exporting. I suggest you useiMovie HD 6. It's still available to Mac users who have iLife 08 and are not pleased with the new iMovie which has been dumbed down from the V6 version. If you add the 16:9 photos to it you can export to that ratio. Also you'll have much more control over the audio trachs being able to cut out portions, fad in and out, overlap etc.
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. 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 now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Exporting slideshow to .mov file using Ken Burns looks low res?

I've created a slide show using the Ken Burns effect exclusively, and after I export as an .mov file and pull that into iDVD (or watching it in QT player) the moves look like a very low resolution image was used instead of the high res files that I know are there. Any ideas of how to fix this? or is this just the way iPhoto handles the files when using Ken Burns FX.

Have your tried the procedure that seems to solve a variety of problems for the iLife applications? Quit iPhoto and delete your iPhoto preferences. To do this, go to your username> library> preferences> com.apple.iphoto.plist. Delete this file. Then reopen iPhoto; it will create a new preference file with all of the default settings.
Ken Burns also...images do not fit to screen any more.
I am not aware of an option to make the Ken burns effect "fit to screen". This effect is applied in a somewhat random fashion, so what you see on one playing of your slideshow can be slightly different when viewed again. You can avoid undesirable changes, like cutting off the tops of heads, by manually applying the KB effect to photos in question. The control is at the bottom of the window when in the slideshow mode. When you are satisfied with the way the slideshow looks, export it as a QuickTime movie.
I hope this helps.

Why does iPhoto 9.5.1 not export slideshows?

Why does iPhoto 9.5.1 stall when I try to export a slideshow, using OS 10.9.3? All steps have been completed, and the preview works fine, but the system hangs up at the "Exporting Slideshow" progress window. The bar never fills. Nada!

Does this only happen for one particular slideshow? Test by creating another, short slideshow using different photos. Can you export this test slideshow? If yes, then probably one of your photos cannot be processed. Duplicate your slideshow and try to find the problematic photo by removing photos from the slideshow and trying again.
If you cannot export any slide at all, create a new iPhoto library for testing. Use iPhoto's "File" menu to create a new library: File > Switch to library > Other/New. Import a few photos and try to export a Slideshow. If exporting from a new library works, try to repair or rebuild your regular iPhoto library.
You rebuild the library by launching either iPhoto while holding down the key combination⌥⌘ (option-command) and double-clicking the iPhoto icon. Keep holding down the keys, until you are seeing the Library First Aid panel. Select to "Repair" the database.
If that does not suffice, try "Rebuild".
Back up your library before rebuilding.

Iphoto 11 9.4.2 won't export slideshow

This is what I get when I try to export a slideshow.
I have a Mac Book Pro 13 running 10.8.2
I have exported several slide shows before with my old white Mac Book.
I tried exporting slideshows with only 2 pictures, and still no luck.
Any ideas? thank you for your help in advance.

Hello,
OT, so I tried to log in with a different account, and when I tried to import pictures to iphoto, I kept getting an error about a problem with the Flip4Mac plugin. I removed the Flip4Mac plugin and now I can export slideshows again. Kind of weird but it works, so now when I need Flip4Mac I just install it and uninstall it as needed.
Thanks for your patience and all the ideas OT, and Jose Luis, if you have Flip4Mac this might solve your problem, or it might be some other external plugin! Good Luck and thanks!

Unable to export slideshow in iPhoto

Iphoto exporting slideshow freezes. Slideshow plays in iphoto, but want to send to a few friends and unable to export. Followed the support faq guide and takes me through the process but when goes to 'export' nothing happens. Have waited 10-15 min thinking it is sizing photos and nothing.

Reinstall the app.
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.
3. Re-install.
*Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

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.

IPhoto - Exporting Slideshows - not happening

Im have a difficult time exporting slideshows to anywhere, no matter how many times I try, they don't end up in either my iTunes slideshow folder or my desktop, the 2 destinations I sent them to. Regardless of the resolution, 480p 720p or 1080p, it just won't work. I am running the latest Yosemite and iTunes programs. I had similar difficulties last time i tried just over a year ago. When exporting, there is an already ticked box saying 'send a copy to iTunes' however its not there...

No Music in exported slideshow

I have read all the threads in this forum but have yet to see a solution to this problem.
I created simple slideshow, created a non-DRM playlist with one song in iTunes and attached the music track to the slideshow. It plays fine within iPhoto but when I export it, i get no audio. I have tried several export types but they all do the same thing. Any help would be appreciated.
Randy

Having same problem - no music in exported slideshow, even though it plays fine when watching in iPhoto. There are no issues with name or path of the song used, so I don't think that is the problem.
I have 44 slides in my slideshow, using the classic theme, and many of the slides have different length. When I test what I'm doing with a simple 3 slide slideshow using the same music, the export works fine, but just can't get it to work no matter what I do with the full, 44 slide slideshow. It is extremely frustrating as I have done this successfully before. Any suggestions?

Does Premeire Elements 11 make a slideshow with different background themes?

Does Premeire Elements 11 make a slideshow with different background themes?

Em Smither
Do you actually have Premiere Elements 11 Windows at this time? And, have you used any prior version of the program? I ask so that I van gauge how deeply to go into different aspects of the program. So, please excuse if I generalize now on matters that you already are aware of.
Premiere Elements is a video editor that will support the use of your own stills and video and music on its Timeline tracks to export to file or
burn to disc.
The Instant Movie can be broken apart once created. And,that Instant Movie feature is editable, leaving components that you want, adding others, and removing others, and you can include your own music in it.
But if you prefer to start from the beginning you can import your photos and music and then add your own assets to the tracks..title templates, backgrounds, etc probably along the line of what one of those Instant Movies would be aimed at. But, I do not see a choice for selecting a particular theme for the slideshow other than that. However, there is an opportunity to select a theme for the disc menus if the export is a burn to disc or part of the webDVD feature.
Did you have in mind, something like placing a theme based background on Video 1 and then on upper tracks directly above scaling your photos so that the background can be seen around them?
Please let me know if I am still not targeting your question.
Thanks.

Exporting slideshows to DVD/CD

I made many DVDs of slideshows on my previous iMac. Since there is no iDVD on my new iMac and I see from help that you can't export slideshows to a DVD, I called phone support and they say I have to use third-party software now to do this. When I go to the App Store there are dozens of different applications to handle it. First of all is there anyone in the community that has found a workaround using the iMac OS or else has had a good experience with a third-party source. Looking through the ratings I see flocks of five stars and just as many single stars with such remarks as "don't buy this piece of junk." Thanks for any suggestions. (I sure wish Apple hadn't eliminated iDVD from IMac since it worked great for me.)
Bob, the frustrated.

How did you install iDVD on your old Mac? The installer should work on your new Mac as well. Did your old mac come with system install dvds? Then try to install iDVD from the appIication DVD. I still keep using it on my new macs that came without iDVD. The old iLife installer DVD worked well.
What you need to do, is to render your iPhoto slideshow as a video by using the "Export" button. Then use any application that can burn a video DVD to burn the movie to DVD.
For examle the free:

Trouble exporting slideshow

I have never had this problem before but now after I have created an album and subsequent slideshow, I am unable to export the slideshow. I chose file/export/slideshow, then I chose quality and a location for the file, then the progress bar shows briefly but nothing more happens and the folder is empty. Help!

Folks have fixed this one with a reinstall of iPhoto.

For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:

How can I export slideshows created in Aperture v3.3.2 from Mid-2009 MacBook Pro-17 to blank DVDs?

(Fifth futile attempt in two hours, before I learned there was a Post webpage – I’m new to ApSuppCom - and after I learned that I am not allowed to update previous content, so I had to back out, make a few changes, and start over.) How can I export slideshows created in Aperture v3.3.2 (complete with superimposed captions and music tracks) from Mid-2009 MacBook Pro-17 to blank DVDs ? (Some other specs: Mac OS Lion 10.7.5; Capacity 499.5 GB; Processor 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo; Memory 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3; Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256MB)
I cannot do a copy (export) without various error messages appearing and the inevitable stoppage occurring. Always with the DVD Video Player final message reading, “Supported disc not available.” Advisors and Mac Geniuses at local Apple Stores have told me to try Roxio Toast. When I visited the Roxio website, and found numerous other company products, the descriptions all seemed to suggest that most of the apps shown can easily export videos to DVDs, but nothing was said about finished digital slide shows being exported. At future events soon, I hope to be handing out these finished DVDs (free) to the people in them. Any help will be greatly appreciated. A.Z.

How can I export slideshows created in Aperture v3.3.2 (complete with superimposed captions and music tracks) from Mid-2009 MacBook Pro-17 to blank DVDs ?
Aperture cannot burn slideshows to a DVD. It only can export a video of your slideshow.
In Aperture 3 you use the "Export" button in Aperture's slideshow project to render a video to a folder on your disk.
Then you use iDVD or another program to burn a video DVD.
I cannot do a copy (export) without various error messages appearing and the inevitable stoppage occurring. Always with the DVD Video Player final message reading, “Supported disc not available.”
Could you please describe the exact steps that are causing these error messages?
How are you exporting your slideshow from Aperture? Which settings are you using? And how are you importing the video to iDVD or Toast to burn a video DVD?

How to restore a single table from a DP Export from a different schema?

Environment:
Oracle 11.2.0.3 EE on Solaris
I was looking at the documentation on DP Import trying to find the correct syntax to import a single table from a DP Export of a different schema.
So, I want to load table USER1.TABLE1 into USER2.TABLE1 from a DP Export.
Looking at the REMAP_TABLE options:
REMAP_TABLE=[schema.]old_tablename[.partition]:new_tablename
OR
REMAP_TABLE=[schema.]old_tablename[:partition]:new_tablenameI can't see where to specify the target schema name. The examples had the new table name residing in the same schema with just a new name.
I looked at the REMAP_SCHEMA but the docs say that will import the entire schema into the new schema and I only want one (1) table.
Any suggestions are most welcome!
-gary

I thought I tried that combination and it seemed to me that the REMAP_SCHEMA somehow over-rode the TABLES= parameter >and started loading all the objects.If it does fail (and it should not) then please post the details here and I will try to see what is happening.
Let me get back into the sandbox and try it again. I admit I was in a bit of a hurry when I did it the first time.We are all in a hurry, no worries. If it fails, please post the details and the log file.
Does it make any sense that one parameter would override another?No, this should never happen. We have tons of checks to make sure the job can't have multiple meanings. For example, you can't say
full=y schemas=foo --- Which do you want, a full export or a list of schema exports, etc.
Your suggestion was the first thing I thought would work.This should work. If not, please post the log file with the command and the results.

Thanks again for the help and stay tuned for my new attempt.

Since this morning all text in firefox look slightly different - I think it still uses the same font, but renders it differently.

Since this morning all text in firefox looks slightly different - I think it still uses the same font, but renders it differently!? I would like to have it changed back to what it was. Any help is welcome.
Some facts:
- Happens only in Firefox (IE & Chrome still look the same)
- Already did a reset to defaults
I'm using the latest version of Firefox
Screenshot can be found here: [http://www.ka-pow.net/media/images/firefoxissue.jpg link text]

Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: <b>View/Beeld > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Zoom_text_of_web_pages
Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily if the Menu Bar is hidden.
Use "Firefox > Options" instead of "Tools/Extra > Options" if the menu bar is hidden.

Published site slight different

When publishing my site to a folder on my computer it looks slightly different to how it does in iWeb. Some text is underlined and the alignment is not quite how it should be.
This isn't a problem with hosting the site on the net, it's something to do with what happens to the site in iWeb as it's being published to the folder.
Any ideas?

On the Contact page, try increasing the size of the text box slightly. It loads with a return after "Email:" before it straightens itself out. Also do a Command A on pages to check that objects/text boxes are not touching or overlapping.
If you tried the troubleshooting steps and they didn't fix the underlined text problem you need to go one step further.
Delete the offending text, save and quit iWeb
Delete the .plist, reboot your Mac and run Disk Utility to repair permissions
Launch iWeb, add the text, save and publish
Deleting the text and rebooting gets rid of the screwed up info from the domain file. Doing a restart is the only way to clear redundant files out of iWeb so you should do it regularly.
