Front Row, slideshow & music

While using Front Row to play a slideshow, the same song always plays. I can't find any way to set the music to the slideshow. Can anyone help on this problem?

Hi Ray,
In iPhoto, click on slide show. On the bottom bar you´ll see an icon for iTunes which lets you set the music.

  • Front Row Slideshow Music Problem

    Hello:
    I have been unable to change the Photo Slideshow music in Front Row. I go into iPhoto, select SlideShow and select my music, but it does not seem to save it to Front Row. I've even tried making my selections as "default" but it doesn't work.
    I've tried repairing permissions on my disk, and there do seem to be problems with Front Row. However, no matter how many times I repair, the permissions still persist. Log file below
    Can anyone offer any tips to a newbie (recently switched from a PC.)
    Thanks,
    Dan

    Thanks; that's a relief, though the permissions that are referenced in the thread you pointed out (that can be safely ignored) seem to me mostly related to iPhoto Access and not Front Row (I seem to have both Front Row and iPhoto permission problems.)
    So, can anyone offer any suggestions on how to change my music in Front Row's Slide Show?

  • Front Row slideshow Help!

    Is there any way to change the default '3 seconds' used for Front Row slideshows? I want to do this without specifically creating a slideshow in iPhoto to change the slide time.
    As a related matter, can the default slideshow settings be changed for iPhoto also?
    My Mom has an iMac and I'd like her to be able to use Front Row to view her iPhoto pics. But 3 seconds is way too fast for her sight, so I need to figure out a fix for this!
    Thanks in advance for your help!

  • Front Row slideshows and purchased music

    When i create a slideshow in Iphoto and add music to it from a purchased song/protected song it plays the slideshow in Iphoto with the music. However if I then try to play the slideshow from Front Row it will play the slideshow but without the music. If I substitute the song with a non purchased song it plays fine from front row. Is there a problem playing slideshows from Front Row using a Purchased Song as the background music?

    I had the exact same problem before but I fixed my problem through iphoto and it worked on my front row photo gallery; all you have to do is open iphoto, click the play button (at the bottom left corner), you will find a slideshow window, select the music tab at the top, choose sample music or itunes (your music library) or garageband, choose a track and click *_save settings_* to make the background music work in front row. Please try my experience and good luck.
    Cheers.

  • Front Row: background music is gone while viewing Photos

    Hi,
    I was trying to change background music about 2 weeks ago and felt succeeded in it. Since then Front Row with Photos was not used. Unfortunately today I figured out that music does not play anymore. Even selecting another music folder in iPhoto for event does not help:
    +It works in iPhoto once Play button is clicked but does not produce desired effect in Front Row for the same Photos.+
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    Todv, that's the problem . I don't really remember how did that before. Honestly this is my first month of experience working with OS X.
    Initially my MBP was delivered with everything preinstalled. Front Row worked fine with Added photos. I didn't even create any Slideshows. Unfortunately only one specific track was played all the time what drove me crazy. Then somehow I changed the song (don't even remember how exactly). It worked. Didn't use Front Row for about 2 weeks and recently decided to watch photos with my girlfriend but... music stopped playing.

  • Front row plays music but will not show photos

    When i try to view my photos in Front Row all that happens is music plays but no photos are shown. Front row says that there are 186 photos to show, however, there is nothing to view once I start the show.
    Any help with this?

  • Front Row  re: Music

    hey, so i wasn't sure if this should go here or in the itunes forum, but when i access front row, and select music, not all of the playlists are available, but they are available via iTunes. I mean, they're also on my iPod. I have the latest update and repaired permissions. Any ideas?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Since Front Row is part of Mac OS X and not a stand-alone application, I would send Apple some Mac OS X feedback.

  • Can't use my screen saver while using front row for music?

    When I work I have my computer on the desk next to me, usually I have music playing and my very large image library running through my screen saver. I used to be able to start up my music using the remote, going through front row. I'd start up the music and back out. It would just return to my screen saver at that point.
    Now when I try to do that, I can't back out of front row without also backing out of my music. It's kind of annoying... I mean, I can just start up itunes and go from there, but it was a nice function that I really got used to.
    Does anyone know of a setting that I can adjust that would allow me to do this again?
    Thanks

    The way it used to work, I'd already have my screen saver running, I'd open front row from my remote, and just start up itunes through that. I'd never actually see the itunes app because it would just open on the toolbar. As soon as I backed out of front row it would automatically go right back to the screen saver while still playing my music. All from across the room.
    Now I have to go over to my computer, open up itunes, start that up, windowshade it to the dock, then hot corner my screen saver again. All sitting right at the desk.
    It was a nice convenience. I don't understand the loss. At least give us the option to open it in the background in preferences. I've always appreciated the fact that Apple let us use our computers the way we like. This just seems counterintuitive.

  • Front Row Slideshow "Tearing"

    I updated my Front Row as per Software Update. Since the update I have had a video "tearing" effect during slideshow transitions. Lines appear in the pictures as it transitions from one photo to the next. It is a really sloppy update. Is there a way to downgrade to the previous version? Or does anyone know of a fix due out?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I'm not seeing this same problem on my MacBook. I can try on a 20" 2.4GHz iMac at work on Monday. This problem would seem to be specific to your Mac, the update may have revealed a previously unknown problem. Do you see the same or similar problem if you run a slideshow inside iPhoto? What about if you use the Preview application with a couple of pictures? Did you also update QuickTime? Which version of iPhoto do you have? (Is it version 6 from iLife '06 or version 7 from iLife '08? Is it also up-to-date?)

  • Front Row SlideShow - best option?

    I am creating a slideshow and am using FR. I chose FR instead of an iPhoto slideshow as I needed to put words along w/ the photo's. I also have it set to music. Two questions: is this really the best way for me to do this - my MBPro will be hooked up to a projector where the project will be projected onto a screen.
    Second, I created the project on my iMac Intel and need to get it into the MBPro...it is 21MB. Best way to do this?
    Thanks in advance! Karen

    Hi Karen,
    I don't have enough practical experience using FR to answer your first question. But as to the second question from your desktop press Command + K and then select browse from the button at the bottom. Then what you will need to do is use connect as and use your username and password you use on the imac. Then just navigate to the folder on your imac with the file and drag and drop to desktop or a folder you have created for it. Hope this helps.

  • Front Row Won't Play Slideshow Music (iTunes)

    I created a slideshow in iPhoto and selected an iTunes playlist as my music source. When I play the slideshow from Front Row the music does not play. However, if I play a photo event from Front Row the default music does play. Why won't my slideshow play the music?
    Please advise.

    Front Row in Mac OS X 10.5.x has been broken the whole time. It used to work fine in Mac OS X 10.4.x (Tiger). Front Row will not play an iTunes playlist during a slideshow if the playlist contains more than one song. You can use a playlist that only has one song in it, but then you might as well just choose a single song instead of a playlist! I would suggest you send Apple some Mac OS X feedback:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
    For what it's worth, iPhoto seems to work fine with slideshows and iTunes playlists with more than one song.

  • Front Row/music playback issue

    Hi all,
    I have a rather large music library in iTunes and I have my Mac Mini attached to my stereo and TV. I use Front Row for music playback. Recently, I have been having trouble as the music will "stall" randomly or "freeze" for a couple seconds, then resume playing. Very annoying.
    I've noticed that this problem does not seem to happen if I select the music from iTunes without Front Row running or if I use FR to select the music, then back out of FR with the little remote.
    Anyway, I prefer to keep FR running. I've seen LOTS of articles and posts regarding video freezing with FR, but not music. Anyone know what's wrong?
    Thanks!

    I have the same problem on my macmini. :/
    And I too like to leave Front Row playing songs while I do other thing in my house.
    It hangs in almost every song now, it never did that before. I wonder if it's this iTunes update...
    Is there someone else with the same problem, or someone that could help us solve that?

  • Front Row with iPhoto '08

    Hello everyone, I recently purchased a Macbook and am trying to figure out how to use all the iLife features. One quirk I have ran into into with Front Row is the fact I can't get it to sync with my music playlist I set in iPhoto. If I play the slideshow using iPhoto, the music playlist plays just fine, but as soon as I get to Front Row, my music does not play. If I put a single song though, it works :S
    I have tried googling everything and cannot figure out what to do
    Currently I have my music running off of my Windows XP Partition (NTFS), so I can't change the ID tags as someone else suggested.
    Thanks all
    (Btw im loving OSX lol)

    It doesn't work for me either right now. I think we're going to have to wait for an iTunes/iPhoto/QuickTime/Front Row or Mac OS X update.

  • Front Row no longer works with Airtunes

    May I add my voice to a retrograde step from tiger to leopard. I now no longer proudly show off front row when I play music in my bar since leopard only plays front row directed music through the imac speakers and not air tunes.

    Same problem here. I hoped the issue would have been solved with the 10.5.2 update, but alas.. no.
    I already posted a 'feedback', think I will do it again. Please Apple, fix this; what's Front Row worth without AirTunes?
