How do you add captions to photos in iDVD slideshows?

Is there a way to add captions to photos once you've put them into slideshows on iDVD? Or, if not, is there another way to add captions to them, though another apple application such as iPhoto? I haven't been able to figure out how to make captions for photos in iPhoto slideshows either. Please help!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. if you're creating the slideshow from stills in iDVD use the Settings button at the bottom to bright up the pane where you can add titles and comments. The downside of that is every photo will automatically have it's file name or title entered. If you don't want that then while you're in iPhoto use the Photos->Batch Change->Title->None option before you import into iDVD. Then none of them will have the titles entered and you can add them to just those that you want. Or you can add them while in iPhoto before importing.

    Are you trying to email to iPhone cell numbers?  If yes, you can't.  That would require SMS, but iPad is MMS only.  This means you would need to text from your iPad to someone's email address who has an iPhone.  Also, they have to be on iOS 5 or higher.

  • How do you add captions to pictures

    Some of my pictures have caption and some do not.  How do I add missing captions?

    The photo has a caption that shows on Photo Element.
    The document does not allow me to add one.  How do I do that?  Also where do I learn to enhance this photo.

  • HOW DO I : Add caption to photos; show captions when photo prints

    using Mac (OS 10.4.8) , importing jpeg from iPhoto 6.
    Photos were named in iPhoto but name (example: "johnny Jones, 2006") is not imported.
    I need the photo names ( or "label" or "caption"- whatever it is called.
    I don't know how to caption (name) individual photos in Photoshop Elements 4. I see the Get Info but when I add a title , it shows up as " johny Jones, 2006.jpg"
    - I don't want the extension ".jpg" to show up
    - I don's see any caption when I do a print preview
    How is this done?
    ( am making a picture package of friends' pix.. need to show name of each friend below the person's photo
    NOWhere do I find information on this, not in help, tutorials, etc
    Don't people want to see printed captions anymore? Metadata in my Elements file is not the anwer.
    I don't want a name layer in the photo; I want a text label for each picture.

    Barbara,
    You could enlarge the canvas - Image>resize>canvas size, select a % increment for height, click the arrow pointing towards 12o'clock, check relative. Then type unique caption below picture with text tool. Text will be on its own layer, position it in place, simplify layer. You can fill residual area of transparency at bottom with paintbucket tool in color of your choice. Finally crop picture to conform to size of your paper.

  • How do you remove captions from photo books in iPhoto 9.5.1?

    I wanted to see what a photo book created in iPhoto '11 looks like with my own pics so I made one the simplest way possible: picked an event, chose a format, clicked "buy book." It arrived yesterday and it's gorgeous but I want the next ones to be even better. In the "Folio" layout every page has a default copyright notice. I don't need that. Every page has the photo's name, useful stuff like "DSC_1518." I don't need that either. Is there a way to remove the entries from every caption box all at once? If I can empty all of them at once I can easily put back the entries I actually want. I can manually empty them but that's 4 captions on every one of 96 pages. Clearing one and clicking "change everywhere" doesn't do it. I don't want to remove the boxes, just the default entries in all of them.
    Thanks

    If you use a theme that has layouts without text boxes or themes that do not have autoload of text the text will not print even though you get a warning before ordering.  Folio is the only theme that automatically puts in some text.  The others just have placecard text that does not print.
    You can test it by by proofing the book according to this Apple document: iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture.
    These are two pages from the Picture Book theme of a 2 photo per page layout. One has text and the other doesn't.  The text you see is placecard text and will not display when printed. 
    This is a screenshot of the pages in the PDF file:
    No text on the second page.

  • How do you add video clips to an iPhoto slideshow?

    I've made a slideshow for my daughter's graduation. I tried to include a couple of video clips in it, but when the slideshow gets to the first one the screen goes black and the video doesn't play. How do I do this the correct way? I use iPhoto '11

    Do the video clips play in iPhoto at all? 
    What theme for the slideshow are you using? 
    Where are the video clips from?
    Are you using any transitions between slides particularly the video clip? 
    Have you tried putting the video clip in a slideshow by itself and see if it will play?

  • How do I add captions to pictures?

    I am very new to the MAC world (one week to be exact). I have searched help and can find a method to select the font to add captions to photos but cannot find the method. I want add captions to photos in an album and then use the album to create a slideshow. Any help would be appreciated.

    Another way to put captions in the slideshows is to first put the captions in the Description field that TD mentioned and then use this script to write those descriptions into the Title field to use in the slideshow. When you're done you can use the Photos->Batch Change->Title to File Name.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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), 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 08 libraries 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.

  • How can i add text to photo in iphoto?

    How can I add text to photo in iphoto without having lion or mtn lion?

    You can't add text to a Photo in iPhoto. You need an external editor for that:
    In order of price here are some suggestions:
    Seashore (free)
    The Gimp (free)
    Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
    Acorn ($50 approx)
    Pixelmator ($50 approx)
    Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
    There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate. You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

    Searched Watermark in Manual
    Adding a Watermark at Export
    A watermark is a visible graphic overlay that is applied to an image. Photographers often use watermarks to indicate that images are protected by a copyright and discourage others from inappropriately using their images.
    You can import a graphics file and add it to your images as a watermark.
    To add a watermark image to your exported images:
    1 Select the images you want to export.
    2 Choose File > Export > Versions (or press Command-Shift-E).
    3 In the dialog that appears, choose Edit from the Export Preset pop-up menu.
    4 In the Export Presets dialog, select the export preset you want to use to export your images.
    5 Select the Show Watermark checkbox.
    6 Click the Choose Image button.
    7 Select the image you want to use as a watermark, then click Choose.
    8 Choose where you want the watermark to appear on the image from the Position
    pop-up menu.
    9 To adjust the opacity of the watermark, drag the Opacity slider to a new position.
    10 If you want the watermark to be scaled in proportion to the image’s output size, select the “Scale watermark” checkbox.
    11 When you’re satisfied with how your watermark appears in the watermark preview area, click OK.
    12 Navigate to the location where you want the exported images placed.
    13 Choose a name format for your exported files from the Name Format pop-up menu.
    14 Click Export Versions.
    Your files are exported with the watermark you created.
    *Tips for Creating High-Quality Watermarks*
    Use the following guidelines to create high-quality watermarks for your images:
    Â Save your watermark as a .psd (Photoshop) file with a transparent background.
    Â Create multiple sizes of your watermark so that you can select the one that is the best match for the output size of the exported image.
    Note: If a watermark file is larger than the image you want to export, Aperture
    automatically scales the watermark down to fit the image. (Aperture does not scale watermarks up.)
    Â After you create a watermark, save it as part of an export preset so you can reuse it as often as you need.

  • How do you drop a still photo into a video?

    how do you drop a still photo into a video -- while continuing the audio track unchanded?

    by popular demand, Kelli Applies Lip Liner to Audrey's Lips has been completely re-mastered. (ok, it was just one person who asked, but she's a very intelligent and articulate observer of such matters.  she noted that the clip suggests "interesting possibilities", but that men probably would be unaware of that.  i explained that "men are pretty simple, so we don't see too many moves ahead."  she laughed.)
    i believe that in an earlier post i indicated that in the re-mastered version i would delete the in-camera audio and dub in the audio from the Zoom H4n audio recorder.  this i did.
    (syncing the video and audio continues to be a nightmare, though ).
    besides signifcantly improving the sound quality, using a separately recorded audio source allowed me to drop (2) still photos into the video track, and still preserve the continuity of the recorded conversation.
    dropping in the stills the correct way (unlike in the first re-mastered video) was easier than i thought it would be.  it's just a matter of dragging the Premiere Elements 7's red vertical timeline-cursor to the point on the timeline where you want the insert to begin, and then dragging and dropping the still photo alongside the red cursor.  the amount of time the still will appear can be shortened or lengthened by dragging with the mouse -- the same way any other file can be extended or contracted.
    the video coming out from the still was now running behind the soundtrack.  but, the timeline shows the exact duration of the still, so the video coming out was shortened with the mouse by that same duration, and then the audio and video were back in sync.
    to add the "sound effect" of the camera's shutter clicking (actually its mirror slapping) before each still appears, i found a point on the audio recording that had the click of my camera actually taking a still, and that had only a little audio from the models underneath it.  removing all the audio before and after the sound of the camera click was, again, just a matter of finding the start/stop points i wanted, moving the timeline's red cursor to those points, and using the mouse to drag the ends of the audio file alongside the cursor.
    because i wanted the sound of the camera click to merge with the converation anyway, i just put the audio file of the click on its own audio track (which allowed me to separately control its volume).
    however, when i tried to copy and paste the audio file of the camera click to the beginning of the second still photo, i was not able to copy and paste by the normal method of using the mouse to right-click-file/left-click-"copy"/left-click-"paste".  eventually, i tried doing so by clicking on "edit" on the menu bar at the upper left and then clicking on "copy" and "paste", and there was no problem.  (go figure.)
    as with the other re-mastered video, i brightened, increased contrast, made the hue a bit warmer, and added a little sharpening.  (this has to be done individually for each separate video file that makes up the whole piece -- at least that's what i did.)
    interestingly, the audio level can be tweaked directly on the timeline by using the mouse to drag up or down a horizontal yellow line running the length of the audio file.
    i again rendered in Adobe Flash Video (.flv).  (annoyingly, in XP at least, there's a default download destination that has to be reset everytime you want to save in a different location).  from a drop-down menu i selected "NTSC Flash Video 700k" (just in case) and left the file name as "Untitled" (since no matter what i change it to, it saves as "untitled.flv", so i have to rename it anyway once it's saved).
    i went into "Advanced..." and, to preserve the dimensions and the HD, i unchecked "Resize Video", chose "Same as source" for the frame rate, and checked 2 "Encoding Passes" (just in case).    
    for some reason, everytime i click the "save" button, it asks what i want to call these settings.  if i use the name i used for the same settings on the previous go-round, it says that that name is already used and (impliedly) can't be used again.  so, i add the new date, and yet another name for the same settings gets added to the drop-down menu (odd).
    once the compressed .flv file was saved, it was an easy upload to youtube.
    btw, it seems that the Elements 7's Audio Mix defaults to 0 dB, OR whatever the setting was in the prior saved version, unless i use the mouse to continuously "ride the slider pot".  that's ok for a 48-second video, but does anyone know of a way the dB can be set so that it just sits there, instead of moving back to where it previously was
