I want to add music to a slide show

I want to add music to a slide show but only let music play for a certain number or slides then a different song for the next set of slides...how do i do this?

Hello Auchattie
What are you using to create the slideshow? If you have iMovie for your iPhone then you can add different music tracks for specific parts for the photos that you added for the slideshow. Check out the page below as it is the user guide to do create a slideshow as well as adding different songs and adjusting it to only play a small part.

  • I am trying to add music to my slide show and I get this error:

    I am trying to add music to my slide show and I get this error:  The selected file cannot be played because your system does not have the required compressor/decompressor (codec) installed.  I went to the Adobe site and downloaded a codec program, and restarted but still got the same error.  Any help would be much appreciated.

    Thank you - I followed the instructions attached to your response, and I deleted the artwork from the three songs that I want to use, however, when I drag them into Photoshop I am still getting the same error message.  I also don't see an option to convert the song to an MP3.  I tried going to File and Get Info, and there isn't an option.  I also tried right click on the song, but didn't see anything there either...?

  • When trying to add music to a slide show from my PC to TV through Apple Tv the photos are fine but I get an error message that says the music cannot be downloaded.

    When trying to add music to a slide show from my PC to TV through Apple Tv the photos are fine but I get an error message that says the music cannot be downloaded.

    Because the location for each song in your library is on your hard drive.  If the hard drive isn't there, how can iTunes play it?
    You'll have to move/copy the music from your hard drive to your computer's hard drive.
    Basically, EASIEST way to do all this, if you don't care about your play counts, etc...
    -Delete EVERYTHING from iTunes, so that your library is now empty.
    -Go to "Advanced" inside of the "Preferences" window, found in the "Edit" drop-down.  You can also access Preferences by pressing Ctrl+, (Press Ctrl and the comma key)
    -Change your iTunes Media Folder Location to something simple, but on your computer. I use C:/iTunes.  Make sure "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized" and "Copy files to...." are both checked.  You can close Preferences now.
    -Now, drag and drop your music from your hard drive into your iTunes library.  iTunes will automatically add the music to your library, as you would expect, and also creates a copy of each file to place into that iTunes Media Folder you just created.
    Shouldn't have any more problems...

  • Access my itunes library to add music to a slide show in iPhoto

    I can't seem to be able to add music to a slide show in iphoto, I shoud be able to access playlist in itunes but it doesn't seem to work.  I have tried the fix on help but still not working.  Any thoughts?

    I'm experiencing the same problem with both iPhoto & Aperture.
    Aperture, iPhoto and iTunes versions are up-to-date as of April 13/13.
    I've setup a new iTunes Library. Did not rectify the problem.
    I've created a new iPhoto Library. Did not rectify the problem.
    In Aperture, where the problem first appeared, I have deleted preferences, which did not correct the problem.
    I then did a full rebuild of the database but the problem still exists.
    Somewhat baffled!

  • Add Music to a Slide Show - Editing Together Multiple Clips

    I want to create a slide show using three songs, and I need to trim each song.  Is there a way to do this in Elements?  If not, what software should I use to edit the music into one audio file that can be added to Elements?  I can't seem to do that in Windows Media Player.  Thanks!

    Which version of Photoshop Elements ?
    1 - The PSE slide show editor does have a very basic capability for trimming music.
    http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-photoshop-elements-8/getting-started-22-creating-a-slide-s how/
    demonstrates using a trim of the audio which I think will also apply to other versions of PSE
    2 - Do you also have Adobe Premiere Elements ?  If yes, you could add your music and trim it within Premiere Elements.
    3 - Or a free editor for audio for which I have heard recommendations is - Audacity.
    I think that it would be capable of creating the single music file for your slideshow.

  • Adding music to a slide show from Itunes

    How do i add music to a slide show from itunes? When i go into the Itunes folder I get all the way to where the music file should be and it says there are no files found.

    Hi Rodney,
    Here's what you do.
    When you click on music and the window opens, click on your library then look at the bottom of the window where you will see a small clear dot - click and drag this up and voila - there's the music.
    A very annoying feature that iPhoto hides this section by default.

  • Music with a slide show

    In I tunes, I croped some song to start at a particular location. This works fine in Itunes. However, when I use this music for a slide show in Iphoto, it plays the entire song insted of starting at the cropped point. Why?, and how do I fix it?

    Alan:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. The iTunes edits work only for iTunes. To trim a track in any way you'll need to do it with another application. You can do it in Garageband. I use the 3rd party editor Amadeus Pro. There are some freeware editors like Audacity. With Amadeus I can open a track select that portion I want to use and copy to a new file and then save. I do that for iDVD slideshows when I want to set the music for a specific total time for the number of slides that I've selected. Works very nicely. IMO Garageband is overkill for simple editing and I don't have it installed.
    Another way to achieve what you want is to export the slideshow without music and edit it in iMovie. There you can add the audio tracks, trim, overlap,etc. and then save the composite movie file.
    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 written 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Problem with adding music to a slide show

    I am trying to add add'l music to a slide show in Elements 9.  The first songs added easily.  I am now getting a message that the "codec" is insufficient.  There does not seem to be any difference in the properties of the songs that are being rejected and the songs that loaded.  How do I correct this to add the MP3 songs?

    Thanks for your response. In answer to your questions:
    1. What is PRE?
    2. mpeg is not a choice on my version of pse7. Only mp3, wav, wma and ac3.

  • Why I cannot add audio file to slide show because of decompressor code

    I cannot add audio file to slide show because of compressor or decompressor needed in the system. Anyway to do this

      If using MP3 files it sometimes helps to delete album art from the track.

  • No Music allocation to slide show

    After I installed iPhoto 11 I cannot allocate background music to a slide show.
    The slide show itself comes up very, very slow.
    Any idea what I should do??

    1. Lots of people report having "up-to-date" systems and software. You would be amazed what some folks consider "up-to-date" so best to tell is the actual versions you have.
    2. At a guess:
    In iTunes go File -> Library -> Organise Library -> Reorganise Library.
    Then quit and restart iPhoto.
    Credit to user keysandfood who figured that one out.
    I have no idea what this means:
    A picture MPEG and not a check box by the titles

  • I just want to add music to my iphone...

    I got an iphone this week, connected it to my wife's laptop in order to activate it on AT&T, and it sync'd it with her laptop. Now I have a ton of music on my computer that I want to add to my iphone and when I connected it there, it wont let me drag music from my library over to the phone. It won't let me sync either saying that it will have to erase everything on my phone since it's sync'd with another library...
    Isn't there just some mass storage driver type option that I can use? Honestly, I'm not a big fan of the itunes app, I find it aggravating, not intuitive, confusing, etc... Isn't there a simple way to drag a file from a folder and just drop it onto my iphone?!?!??

    All music that goes onto iphone must come from itunes.
    You can only sync/manage music from one computer/itunes library at a time. If you want music from both computers, you will have to put it all on one computer, then sync.
    "Isn't there a simple way to drag a file from a folder and just drop it onto my iphone?!?!??"
    Only via itunes.
