How to make a photo slideshow with next button

Is it possible to make a photo slideshow for a dvd that will use the next button to go forward to the next photo? Can I import a video from another dvd and include it in the same dvd on which I put the photo slideshow? They might fit: 220 mb of photos and the video dvd is 2.6 gb

Hi arthurav42
Welcome to apple discussions. First thing to mention is that iDvd doesn't look at MB's or file sizes (excluding the dvd-rom section of the dvd). Rather, it looks at QT playback in hours and minutes. We call this total run time and it is not to exceed 2 hours / 120 minutes for a SL Dvd-R (and about twice that for DL).
As to your first question, Is it possible to make a photo slideshow for a dvd that will use the next button to go forward to the next photo? The direct answer is not within iDvd. You'd need apple's pro apps FCS/DVDSP in order to add a next button to individual photos contained within a manual slideshow.
However, one may be able to simulate this feature in iDvd with the use of a graphics app like Adobe PS in which one could add an arrow to any given jpeg / photo. It wouldn't highlight the button itself after it's selected on a remote / clicked but it would move directly to the next image once a person clicks on it (or anywhere else on the image for that matter).
As for the second question, Can I import a video from another dvd and include it in the same dvd on which I put the photo slideshow? ..... Again the answer is yes within DVDSP and not directly within iDvd (you'd need a third party app like DVDXDV from which one can convert to a QT file for use within any of the i-apps or pro apps for that matter like DVDSP). Once converted, simply add the movie to the slideshow feature in iDvd. And yes it's possible to add both photos and movies to the slideshow in iDvd. For example:

How to make a photo slideshow

when i try to make a slide show from my photos in iphoto it will not work. i get a gray box with a question mark in the middle of the screen all my photos are on the top but i can not go any further i have tried everything.

It sounds like iPhoto has lost the link to the full sized image files. If you get an "!" in the edit window there are three possible fixes for that:
The "!" means that the library has lost the file path to the original file. This happens when there has been an interruption to iPhoto while it is writing to it's database file, Library6.iPhoto. Moving, renaming files or folder inside the library package while in the Finder is another way you can get that indication. Try the three fixes below in order as needed:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options.
2 - rebuild the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: It may take some time to create the new library if you have a lot of photos. Report back on how long it took and how many photos you have in the library so we can give other users an idea of how long it may take.
3 - start over with a new library and import the Originals folder from your original library as follows:
Creating a new library while preserving the Events from the original library.
Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
Open the library package like this.
Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
Drag the Originals folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library if you have the Finder checkbox unchecked in the Events preference pane.
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 make Web Photo Gallery with 3 columns of thumbnails?

Hi all
I have used web photo galery to build a few sites, but always with thumbnails in a single, vertical column, within a frame that scrolls. and i have never mch liked that scrollbar.
I have come across this page:
http://www.mariannekolb.com/recent.html
which, as i look at the code, may not even be using web photo gallery, but is very similar.
anyhow, does anyone in this group have any idea how this multiple column thumbnail (without scroll bar) is accomplished?
thanks

I see how the css works, and it is much superior to alternatives I have seen.
But I fear I may be overlooking something: are you manually coding the html, writing the captions, and creating the thumbs? or is there a program that generates these?
Manually coded the CSS. Used Photoshop to optimize images, watermark them and create thumbnails.
Used Dreamweaver to insert thumbnails, full-size images and caption text.
If you want software to do the heavy lifiting for you, look at jAlbum.

How to make a photo "fit" with the surrounding film clips?

I am working on a new project in which I have a photo which is "taller" than the other film clips, so consequently, when that clip is playing, one cannot see the top or the bottom because they have been cropped off to match the height of the other film clips.
What can I do to make that picture "fit"? It is important because this is a photo of a person, not just landscape.

IMovie still photo slideshow with theme - how?

(Sorry this question should've been posted in the iMovie HD 6 forum, so I have re-posted it there, but I don't know how to delete this post here, sorry for the double post. If you do have an answer for this question, please feel free to answer here, thanks!)
Hi I'm new to Mac, and I'm trying to make a photo slideshow with iMovie 6 HD. I wanted to use a theme for the opening, bumper, credit, etc.
From my understanding, I put the photos in the drop zone, put in the titles, and apply and drop the theme into the timeline. Then I drop the photos into the timeline as desire to continue the slideshow. However, problem arise as the animated theme ends, it doesn't connect with the photos that follow. For example, if I put 6 photos in the opening and as the opening animation ends, it zooms into photo #6 and it ends right there. I assume then I should drop photo #6 right after the opening theme, is that right? Problem is that the zoom level doesn't match and there will be a very obvious jump from the opening to the next photo! The same also happen to the beginning and ending of bumpers, and such.
Am I missing something? How do you make the transition smooth? Could somebody point me to some tutorials, threads, or provide some advice on how to create a photo slideshow with themes?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I need an answer pretty quickly; maybe I can rephrase the question and make it simpler...
How do you match the beginning/ending of a theme animation to match the photo before/after it, so that it doesn't look like it jumped?
Thanks.

How do you run a slideshow with no music in new Photos app

In the new Photos app I can find no way of running a slideshow without music - either the standard themes or selecting my own music. How can I run a slideshow with no music at all? No setting, tab or option seems to be available to achieve this.

Hit top right arrow for slide show; click on Music, click button next to search; choose Theme songs, click on blue check mark to remove it, then hit PLAY SLIDESHOW.

How to make a photo half black and white with select colours

Hey,
Can anyone give me step by step instructions on how to make a photo black and white with abit of colour like the one attached... on CS4?
Cheers

Haven't seen you attached file as it takes a long time for attachments to load on this forum. Try little camera icon instead.
EASIEST way to have B&W in areas is to add Hue and Saturation adjustment layer. Use sliders to make B&W. Next paint on layer MASK, with black, to restore color in areas you want to show color.

How do I make a photo book with low grade pics from iphones?

Hello,
Can Anyone give me some help I am trying to make a photo book with low grade photos from iphones.
Thank you!

What exactly is your question?
If you have low resolution photos then they will have to be printed smaller and the quality not be as good as if you had better photos - there is no way to make a poor photo better
And in general iPhone photos are not low resolution - what are the pixel dimensions of the photos? What size photos are you trying to print?

How to make a photo small so I can send it by e-mail

want to know how it make a photo small on my desktop so I
can send it by e-mail, thank you

I suppose there might be an extension, but you would be better off using a free photo editor.
I use "IrfanView" (irfanview.com) to work with photographs.
I use "PicPick" (picpick.org) to work from a screen print ("PrtSc") or capture to crop and annotate.
*Also see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Posting_a_screenshot_on_the_forum#Windows
*also see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot
Something simpler may or may not be:
:Picnik (picnik.com), online photo editing, fix photos, crop, resize, rotate, artsy effects, fonts, shapes.
You also have alternatives storing the picture and./or elsewhere and providing a link
* imageshack.com
* dropbox.com
If you have access to the image through Firefox, this extension looks promising

Saving files to your desktop is not the best place.

Go into your system profiler and tell us your Machine Identifier that says:
iMac x,y (give us the x and y values)
That will tell us whether you are Mavericks compatible or not.
Also tell us how much RAM you have installed.

How to make a photo STAY in the assets panel for future use for In browser editing?

How to make a photo STAY in the assets panel for future use for In browser editing?
When I delete a photo from a page, it does not stay in the assets panel. My client uses in browser editing daily. Once a week he changes a photo just for a day, then needs the previous photo to replace it. The original photo is not in the asset panel (or folder) for him to choose.
When you upload a photo, it has an arrow in the asset panel. How do you use this as an asset?

Sure ... right mouse click on your page and choose 'Exclude Page from Menus' :-)
