Help Needed! I have created a 13 Min Slide Show in iPhoto (iMac Mavericks) but am having problem with adding music.

I created a 13 min Slide Show in iPhoto but have a question on adding music. I would like to add music clips that are set to change at the beginning of certian slides so that there is a varity of music during the show rather than a continuous theme clip. I know you can add multiple clips but can you pin them to change at a particular point in the program? Right now the music clips just run to their time limit and the next one starts. Isn't there a way to edit them the way it can be done in iMovie? Its frustrating to be able to create a nice slide show and not be able to manage the music background. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

No, you don't have that fine grained control of the soundtrack in iPhoto. It's designed for a quick job, not a complex one.
Alternatives to iPhoto's slideshow include:
iMovie is on every Mac sold.
Others, in order of price:
PhotoPresenter $29
PhotoToMovie $49.95
PulpMotion $129
FotoMagico $29 (Home version) ($149 Pro version, which includes PhotoPresenter)
Final Cut Pro X $299
It's difficult to compare these apps. They have differences in capability - some are driven off templates. some aren't. Some have a wider variety of transitions. Others will have excellent audio controls. It's worth checking them out to see what meets your needs. However, there is no doubt that Final Cut Pro X is the most capable app of them all. You get what you pay for.

I have a brand computer and I have an ipod nano generation 7. How do you download your music from itunes to your ipod. I did it on the old computer but am having problems with the new computer. Please help. Thanks

Please help. I have a new computer and an ipod nano 7th generation. I am having problems getting my music from Itunes library to my ipod. How do you do it?

Hello Sandy
You can transfer the purchases from your iPhone to your new computer by following the steps in following article.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848
If you have music that was not purchased from the iTunes Store, then you will not be able to move it from the iPhone to your computer. Instead you will need to follow the steps in this article that helps with moving the library from the old to the new.

I am still having problems with my music videos freezing (all purchased from iTunes) since the update. Have restarted, rebooted etc. and it is worse than before. Help! Spent a lot of money on these and they won't play properly.

I am still having problems with my music videos freezing (all purchased on iTunes) since the update. The first day of the update, no problems...played 6 hours of music videos and no freezing. Today...every single video froze!!! So frustrating! I rebooted, restarted, powered down and no help. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.

I don't know how to do this without using a mouse point.
This may help, http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000542.htm
As for question #2, you call tell how iTunes is sorting songs by the up or down arrow next to a header name.
Even the original order that the songs were entered or date added or last played can be sorted.
Much easier with a mouse or touch pad.

I need to download dell drivers to a jumpdrive connected to my iMac. Will this cause problems with my Mac?

I need to download dell drivers to a jumpdrive connected to my iMac. Will this cause problems with my Mac?

Thanks. These drivers are for the audio, etc. for a dell laptop I purchased used. ( Needed something cheap for a training video that would only run on Windows. Tried Emedia player but picture was too fuzzy.) Dell support said I should contact Apple support for instructions on how to get the drivers onto the jumpdrive. Any tips on doing that?

I downloaded OS X Lion on my iMac and I'm having problems with my computer waking up after hibernating. I can get to the login screen but my mouse will be frozen. The only fix's is a hard reboot. Any help would be great!

Try resetting the SMC and the PRAM.
1. SMC
Read this and follow the instructions for your kind of mac:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
2. PRAM
Follow the procedure below:
1. Power down the machine.
2. Locate the following keys on your keyboard in preparation for Step 4:
command–option–P–R
3. Press the ‘power on’ button.
4. Immediately – and before the grey screen appears – hold down ‘command-option-P-R’ all together.
5. Keep them held down until you’ve heard the start-up chime twice. After you release them you should hear it again, and hopefully your Mac will boot up as it should normally.

I have all my previous music files in wma formats from my previous PC Windows xp computer. And only two weeks ago I decided to purchase an iMac computer OS X Maverick, and there are a lot of files and information I would like to bring to the Mac, but I'm having problems playing my music file, suited to the PC but not with iMac as yet. So, I hope you can help on this...
Kind Regards

WMA files are 'window media audio' files, which is a Microsoft format. If you want to add them to your iTunes library on your Mac then you will need to convert them into a compatible format first. If you still have your windows machine then iTunes for Windows can convert them from WMA to MP3 format : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24158701#24158701
Or try a search for, for example, 'convert wma to mp3' to find programs to convert them.

TS5223 Hi I need help I can not sign into my phone I have an Apple Id and reset my password I updated it today. Having problems with icloud I think not sure

I need to use my phone and wish I did not update my phone I have not been able to use it all day How can I reset it so I can use it again It says to sign in with apple id that was used to set up this i phone. I have tried every passcode and ID that I have ever used

Are you sure it's your ID? Activation lock will require the ID and password that was originally used to activate the phone in order to reactivate. If the phone had a previous owner, it's their ID and password that is required, not yours.

I have just bought an imac and I am having problem with my camera. The image is kind of distorted and coloured lines everywhere. I have updated softwares and applications and restarted the computer but it didn't help. What to do?

what to do?

shauney,
From your description of the problem, it sounds like you have a hardware/camera defect. My recommendation is to return your imac to where-ever you bought it, and have them deal with, or replace your computer with one that functions as it is supposed to. You should not have to suffer with this situation on a new computer, although it does sometimes happen.

You need to tell us A) what app did you create those files with? and B) what format are they in (.doc, .txt, etc)?
It may be possible to just transfer the files and your font to another machine without conversion depending on how they were made.
Where did you get the BengaliCS font?

Put in correct user name and pass word but still having problem with account authenitication, have cleared with time warner cable,

While using HP 34401A Multimeter, I'm trying to create a database but am having problems with it.

Hi, I'm trying to save the readings in a ASCII file by using in 'HP 34401A Getting Started.vi', a file provided in the instr.lib folder.
The multimeter reads the instruments correctly and displays it on the screen, but when I connect the wire to 'Write to Sreadsheet File.vi', it shows 0 in the ASCII file (which I open in Excel) yet showing the correct readings on the screen.
Any help is truley appreciated.
Kunal.

Kunal,
When using the "Write to Spreadsheet File.vi", make sure that you have the format parameter correct. You can find a list of the parameters by going to Help\Contents and Index\Index in LabVIEW and searching for "formatting". "Specifier Syntax in Strings" and "Format Specifier Examples" may be useful to you. Make sure that you have enough decimal places.
The LabVIEW User's Manual may also be of use to you. You'll find the link below.

HT204053 I created a different Apple ID for Icloud on my new IPhone and having problems with getting Itunes,etc. How do I change my Icloud Apple ID to be the same ID and password?

I created a different Apple ID for my Icloud on my new IPhone (said a free email was available or something similar) rather than the other choice offered of using my same existing Apple ID. Now I keep having issues accessing my account and my password isn't working to access Icloud to download Itunes. Can I undo this new account I created and just use my one existing Apple ID? This is my first IPhone and confused with this part of the setup! Thanks.

If you know the answers to your security questions, you should be able to change your password without using email authentication (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HE36). If you don't, you may be out of luck.

Have you restored the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod? If so then you have a hardware problem. Maybe a loose/brken connector or maybe something else.

HT4314 I m having problem with adding one more Id to my same Game Center account!! It says "email Id unavailable " but this is mine Id only? And can u also tell me what it means?

Hi plz tell answer of my question. I m not being able to add my friends due to this problem!

Luxury, Julie! I can't even get past the “Nickname” window. I put in a nickname and press the “Continue” button. Another pool-table-felt-green window appears, empty except for the spinning pinwheel (“doing something…”) in the middle. After a couple of hours mesmerized by this wonderful phenomenon, I figure I didn't want to see what "Game Center" is, anyway.

Help Needed! I have created a 13 Min Slide Show in iPhoto (iMac Mavericks) but am having problem with adding music.
