How to export iPhoto slideshow to quicktime and then view on video iPod?

How do you export a slideshow to a Quicktime movie (from iPhoto) so that the resulting Quicktime movie is then viewable on an iPod?
I've exported slideshows (with transitions, specified Ken Burns effects, music, etc.) to Quicktime movies to try to view these on my iPod. I don't want to view my photo albums since they don't have of the effects that the slideshow has. There is an option to save the slideshow in a small file size that is presumably viewable on an ipod. About 80% of the time, however, the Quicktime movies are then NOT viewable on my iPod. My iPod just freezes when I try to start the movie.
Here are the steps I use to export
1. From iPHoto Select the slideshow / File / Export / select small movie
2. From iTunes / File / Import / select the Quicktime movie that was created from the slideshow
Background info
1. Apple G5 purchased in 2003, 2 CPUs, CPU Speed 2 GHz. Memory 2GB. Bus Speed 1 GHZ. CPU TYpe PowerPC 970 (2.2)
2. iPhoto '08 version 7.1.1 (354)
3. Video iPod purchased in May 2006. (60 GB). Uses iPod software version 1.2.3 (most current version for this iPod)
4. Quicktime Player version 7.3.0 Player Version 7.3 (7.3)
I've tried synchronizing my iTunes with the Quicktime movie to a new iPod and that doesn't work either. I've tried many different approaches but none of these ever work. I'd really appreciate any thoughts or ideas you might have. Thank you!

You probably will need a 3rd party application to convert the . mov QT file that iPhoto creates into a format for the iPod. Some are VisualHub, ViddyUp, and iSquint. You can find them at VersionTracker.com.

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 to export iPhoto Album in iMAC and have similar folder structure(with Timestamps) which can be viewed in finder
    In simple terms, I wanted to view the photos in Windows system, similar strcture of iPhotos

    If you want to copy all of your photos to a Windows machine and have them in folders representing the iPhoto Events the were in quickly and easily just do the following:
    1  - open the library with the Finder as shown in this screenshot:
    2 - COPY the Originals/Masters folder to the Desktop.
    3 - copy the Originals/Masters folder to the Windows machine.
    This will give you all of your original image file in their Event folder on the Windows machine.
    NOTE:  With iPhoto 8 or newer the Event folders in the Masters folder will be titled by date (EXIF) if imported from a camera.  If imported from a folder the event folder will have the same title as the source folder.  If imported singularly or in a group without a folder the title will be a date, either the EXIF date or import date.
    With iPhoto 7 (08) and earlier the Event folders in the Originals folder will have the same title as the Event has in the library.
    This method would be quicker but not provide the additional metadata you might have added in iPhoto like keywords, titles, descriptions that exporting out of iPhoto with Format=JPEG and the checkboxes selected to include keywords, titles, places, etc, checked.

  • How to upload images to a DB and then view them in the site?

    Hi
    I have a form, and i want it to insert some data on a DB, so
    that the site can display that information. But i'm not able to
    upload images or files, because dreamweaver does not have a file
    upload option.
    I'm using PHP, can anyone help me on how to upload a image
    and display it on the web site?

    > I don't think its possible to store files in a

    It is. But it's not a great way to do things.
    > store it's path in the DB
    Actually, what you want to store in the DB is the filename
    only. Put the
    path into the HTML. That way you don't have to change every
    record when you
    rename a folder.

    Turn off Time Machine before you open iMovie. It's a semi-known issue right now.

    Well since I do not have iPhoto 7 I can only guess what may be: As far I can remember up to iPhoto 8, iPhoto insisted on Quick Time Player 7. As I can see you have Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6) and there Quick Time X is the standard playaer. Basically Quick Time 7 is not part of Snow Leopard.
    Can you please check if Quick Time 7 is installed under Applications->Utilitis (in 10.6 Quick Time 7 if presenet is installed not under Applications - there Quick Time X is - but under Application/Utilities).
    If not: insert your Snow Leopard installation DVD.
    Once the installer opens, double-click on the Optional Installs folder
    Double-click the Optional Installs.mpkg package
    Click continue.
    Select the option for QuickTime 7 then click Continue to start the installation.
    If it is there you may try to move the iPhoto prefernce file to another folder and let iPhoto create a new one.
    Please keep the old file until you are sure that iPhoto works how it should.
    The iPhoto preference file can be found under your home folder then Library then Preferences and there
    com.apple.iPhoto.plist
    As alraedy mentioned do not delet this file, since if something goes wrong you can put it back.

  • Sharing Exported Iphoto Slideshow via QT Pro

    I'll make this question pretty simple, I'm trying to "share" an exported Iphoto slideshow to my .mac site and send via email, I know it compress's the file when "sharing", but for some reason when I try to share in QT 7 Pro, the "share" menu option is grayed out and this only happens for exported Iphoto slideshows, If I recall you could share slideshow's in QT 6 Pro, why not in QT 7 Pro?

    Hi Neal,
    I just exported a small slideshow to quicktime. I see what you mean now, share is grayed out.
    I have no problem sharing video clips from my digital camera.
    Hmmmmm, there has got to be a reason for this.
    I would share/export the slideshow and use the smallest size. This is the correct size for emailing and putting in your Movies folder on your iDisk.

    Hello!
    My first question is pretty obvious:
    - is the quality great when previewing your slideshow in iPhoto?
    If so, try the following:
    delete the bad slideshow from iTunes
    go back to iPhoto and select a better quality export method, like 720p or 1080p
    Did that help?

    It sounds like it may be one of those quirky things like a key stroke character used in the file name that OSX doesn't like.

    Suddenly i can't export iPhoto slideshows to iDVD after upgrading to 10.8.2   I get the message "CouldNotCreateTmpDir"  What do i do to overcome this problem?  I've been making slideshows for ages using iPhoto and iDVD and it's suddenly stopped. Urgent help needed.

    Are you saying that you cannot export a slideshow from iPhoto to the Desktop and then drag it from the Desktop (or the Movie frolder where it can be stored) into an open iDVD menu window?
    Export the slideshow at the large or medium size:
    They drag the movie file into the open iDVD window.  NOTE: do not move the movie file once it's been added to iDVD. That's why it should be placed in folder where you intend to keep it permanently or at least until the iDVD project is completed and burned to a disk image and then to disk.

    When I upload photos to iPhoto from my iPhone and then press delete from iPhone it does not delete them, how do I fix this?

    I am having the same problems as this person. I see that someone said there is no way to retrieve the pictures once it gets stuck in recovery mode.
    Then further along someone said that there are data retrieval methods except they have something to do with jail breaking a phone.
    My phone is already jail broken. It was kind of a gift from the company I work for- it was a fellow employees before. He jail broke it and then it was given to me. After I got it I activated the 4 and tried to back up everything. It didn't work and "Springboard" forced the phone into safety mode. So I could use it with the old dude's apps and my contacts. I made the mistake of using the phone for wedding dress shopping with a friend. I took tons of pictures.
    After this I found out the messages I was seeing meant it was jail broken. At&t said to force restore the phone - iTunes wouldn't recognize it in safety mode. I'm an idiot and didn't realize what this meant for my pictures. It didn't work (error 1611) - thankfully. Now it is stuck in recovery mode (iTunes icon and USB cable picture).
    Can I access that media in any way? It never suceeded restoring itself so is it still there? The phone is jail broken already so is there a method I can use?
