From album to slideshow = re-sort

I manually put the images in proper sequence in an Album but when I then try to make a slideshow with pics in same sequence, Aperture totally changes the order. How do I get the same sequence in slideshow as in album?

I made a video/audio slideshow! I used a modification of the option described by leonieDF above - just because it was the first one posted.
and it worked! I selected 30 images from my library and put them in a new album and manually sorted them into the sequence I desired.
I then did a batch re-name of the 30 sorted images with a numeric sequential component. I did not make the duplicate versions as suggested (and therein may have made a "mistake" that I am not aware of - yet!)
I did not lose the images from the selection/sequence album nor from the original folder from which they were chosen - even though I batch re-named the images after sequencing.
With the renamed and arranged images I made a new slideshow - and it worked in keeping the sequence as I had desired and arranged - using the "version" drop-down menu option.
fwiw it can be accessed via public folder Dropbox

I intend to try the option described by Kirby Krieger on my next project.
Thamk you again.

How to move iphoto albums or slideshows from one computer to another

I have iphoto running both on my desktop ('08 = 7.1.5) and on my laptop ('09 = 8.1.2). The libraries contain a lot of the same images but they are not identical (and I don't want them to be). I create albums or slideshows or books on each of my machines and would like to then transfer them to the other one for keeps - without replacing the albums etc. in that library. How do I do that?
Sorry if this is a dumb question that's been dealt with many times. I couldn't easily find an answer.

You can move albums and their photos between libraries but not books, slideshows, cards, etc. So you will have to recreate those items in the other library.
If you are able to get the library with the books, etc. up to speed as far as having all of the photos from the other library you can then copy that full library to the other computer so you will have the book and other keepsakes in both libraries.
I suggest to create a separate library for the book and copy it between Macs as needed. It will be small enough to make the copying process quicker. You can add additional photos to the book library as needed from either of your other libraries.
This tutorial may be of some help if you decide to go that route: Old Toad's Tutorial #9a - Archiving an iPhoto 7(08)/8(09) Book for Editing and/or Ordering at a Later Date.

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 versions) 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.
NOTE: this is not the same as routinely backing up your entire iPhoto library folder to protect your photos. It only protects the loss of your organizational efforts that the database file contains.
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. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 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: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

My albums and slideshows disappeared from the left column when I ejected a Canon camera after a download. My version of iPhoto '08 (V7.1.5(378)) had just crashed when I first connected the Canon camera to download. I restarted iPhoto.....successfully downloaded 22 photos, and ejected Canon camera, upon which albums & slideshows highlighted blue and disappeared from the left column. The photos still seem to be under the EVENTS and PHOTOS in the LIBRARY. Any thoughts?

IPod touch music dissapears from album view and other things

I'm honestly suprised to the fact that my old iPod video works better on this factor than the iPod touch I upgraded to.
My problem lies in the fact of syncing makes my iPod decide certain things stay on Album view and dissapear from it. To give an example:
Before sync - Album of Disneyland Music is still together on album view and nothing has vanished.
Add in another song to the compilation of music on the album for easy listening.
Sync iPod
Album of Disneyland music has vanished completely and only the new song added in is viewable in the album listing.
Don't think that it's gone competely. I've searched and the music is actually in the iPod, just not in the albums listings. It's everywhere else listings on the iPod.
This has irked me ever since I bought the thing since another issue that just drives me up the wall. With my iPod video if I listed the music under an album it'd be sorted into the album with no problem. With the iPod touch however if ONE thing is off it gets sorted into its own lisiting on the Album view even though it shares the same Album title with another song. Example:
Old music that doesn't get recognized has to have information added in
Albums are correct
Artists are correct
Sync iPod
Album listing has multiple listings from the same album with the artists as its sorting spot. (or if it even showed up at all...)
I've tried multiple times to fix this and nothing works. (and i've checked and unchecked sort by album artist, no dice.) I attempted to contact an iTunes help as it was partly on the program's fault, the helper didn't understand what I was talking about. Can anyone help me here?
and no I can't resort to my iPod video as I've killed the selection middle button thanks to a game. That and it also had an issue with connecting and I kept having to refresh it.

I looked in Compilations and the album that's vanished from Album view isn't in there. I checked via Artist view and the songs are there so the music is in the iPod but it's being a little wise sucker and not showing me the album in the Album view.
I fear for the videos I have to put on my iPod for class reference today...

Creative ZEN, Albums fused, does not sort albums correctly!
I attach my Creative Zen to my computer true USB,
I manually copy Albums to my creative zen.
If i view my (ZEN) folder in Windows XP, everything looks great and sorted!
I safely remove my ZEN player from my computer,.
The ZEN rebuilds his data.
I go and view albums, and what do i see each time! over and over again!
Albums fused together, albums scattered true each other, MOST albums got different names then in windows XP!
I get really frustrated from this! how can i make this right!
I want the ZEN to show the albums like in WINDOWS XP! how hard can this be!!!
Thanks for the help in advance!
Greetz!

Hi,
The Creative ZEN organizes songs according to the ID3tag of the music file, not by folders. If you want to arrange the music files in the order you want, please check and make sure that the music files are tagged properly. You may need a third-party tag editor to do this.

Connecting multiple album or slideshows in IPhoto 6

I am putting together a large slideshow. In order to organize it better, I've made a number of smaller albums containing parts of the show. Is there any way to link these albums (or slideshows made from them) into one large slideshow that would then show continuously? Or do I have to manually make one very large album, and then make the show? I tried Automator and it didn't seem to do the trick. Making a movie ruined the resolution.

There is no way to join Slideshows. What might work is to export them as QuickTIme Movies (File -> Export) and then join the movies using Quicktime Pro.
Other than that you'll need one big album.

Album vs Slideshow vs Smart Album

Hi,
I tried to change the order in a Smart Album, but with no luck.
Why can't you change the order in a Smart Album?
To me, slideshows and Albums are roughly the same. Ok, a slideshow can be altered much more for visual presentation. However the basics are the same, in both you can change the order of the pictures.
A Smart Album has the advantage of always showing ALL pictures applying to the Smart Album, however, now I want to change the order.
I don't want to end up having to make a Smart Album to collect all the photo's (when I import new ones, I don't need to drag and drop them to applicable albums) and then making a seperate Album or Slideshow, so I can change the order.
Anybody any advice on how to do this more efficient?
thanks
regards
Teeloo

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Why can't you change the order in a Smart Album?
You can. View Menu -> Sort Photos -> by keyword, by date, by title, ascending or descending
You cannot sort them manually, that's a characteristic of any Smart Item.

Why are most photos disappearing from albums in iWeb?

I'm having a problem with the photo albums on iWeb.
I drag a photo album from my iPhoto window in iWeb to the photo album web page and it becomes an album with slideshow capabilities. If I publish the site, everything appears fine. I save iWeb and exit.
Now if I open iWeb again, all three of the photo album pages still exist, but on each page, only four of the original photos remain. The albums are supposed to have 29 photos, 35 photos, and 46 photos total. Now they each show four.
I thought it was a fluke, so I added them all again including captions. Then I saved, closed and reopened iWeb. The photos in the web albums were gone again.
I'm using iLife '09 with the iPhoto that exists on my laptop, but all the source photos are located on a Mac Mini in my local network. Any ideas on why this is happening and how I can fix it?
Note that the complete album as uploaded to the actual website still exists and works great. But if I publish the changes, the album will disappear.
Thanks.

Look under "More like this" on the right of this page, specifically "Re: no photo selected"; the discussion there may be of help.

How do I move photos in iphoto for ipad from album to album ?

how do i move photos in iPhoto for iPad from album to album ?

If you want to move a photo, then you need to use a PC or a Mac. In iPad, you can copy, but this is just a link to the original. It's something I've been wanting to do for a while...but it looks like it needs another photo program to do it.

Unless you opted to add the source image files to the DVD's ROM Contents the answer is no.

How do I move photos from album to album in Photo

How do I move photos from album to album in Photo?

Now try this. Try to import photos from your camera's SD Card by dragging and dropping the photos from the SD Card to an album of choice. You can't.
Actually you can if you drag the photos onto the albums' icon in the sidebar pane at the left or into the albums open window at the right. This
gets you this:
However, this test was for photos in a folder on the Desktop. I didn't have a memory card to test so you may have to move the pictures from the card to a folder on the Desktop and import from there.

I assume my Apple TV should allow me to view all events, albums and slideshows in my iPhotos app but it only allows four events and four albums to display on my television. I'm using a Optus mini Wi Fi for my home network. Could this be the reason for limited access via my iMac computer?

No, I have not chosen photos to share as I assumed that the Apple TV would access all photos and music that are stored on my iMac.
Thanks for your advice. I will check it out.

I don't think the list style transfers. Copy and paste the text in to Mail, select it and then choose "Insert Numbered List" as a work around.
