IDVD too basic - alternative software suggestions

iDVD is fine for simple things but it's got a lot of limitations: you can't vary the length of the slides or vary the transitions: you can't add motions to slides, etc.
Does anyone know of other slideshow software for iMAC, preferably free or low cost?
Thanks

very confused. you're using idvd to create a slideshow? why not iphoto which is excellent or imovie?

  • 3d animation software suggestions

    Hello,
    I would like to know:
    what is a good 3d animation software that is somewhat basic. I need to make simple 3d cartoons that can move around and talk. I don't need anything super high-end but nothing that is too basic. Price isn't really an issue too much since my employer is paying

    Yes, it will do a full backup.
    and if so, do I really need all the old backups on my smaller external drive?
    Only if you want to be able to go back in time to those previous Time Machine backups.  When you plug in the new larger external drive, you will only be able to go back as far as the first day you plugged it in and ran the first Time Machine backup on it.

    If you created a new ID, you cannot update the apps that you bought with that ID by using the new ID. Apps are always tied to the ID that you used to buy them with. You will have to continue to use the old ID and password for those apps.
    If you changed your ID - and there is a difference - go to Settings>Store>Apple ID and change it in there to the correct ID.

  • N73 Alternative software to taking photos?

    Is there any alternative software that i can take photos on my n73 that will not destroy images with compression like firmware does? If there is such a thing, whats its name and where can i buy it? (I think that this functionality should be build into the phone though. I doubt I will buy another Nokia phone again)

    I am trying to purchase basic lightroom  software (desktop stand alone), but am confsed by the cloud, which I do not really want. My aim is developing RAW from my camera.

    The standalone version doesn't use Creative Cloud features, so if you don't want the cloud just get the standalone version.
    Note that if you want to sync your Lightroom desktop images to Lightroom on an iPad or iPhone (or the Android versions coming later), then a Creative Cloud subscription would be required.

  • Do lyncentry.exe imputed as basic lynv software?

    hi
    i install lyncentry.exe on my users computer but in lync software i haven't OneNote2013
    i search for it and understand that basic lync software does not support OneNote
    i want to know that lyncentry imputed as basic or full lync?

    Agree with the others, Lync basic has limitations.  See this article for more details on what you're missing:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg425836.aspx
    The full version comes with Office Professional Plus or is available as a stand-alone purchase.  You'll typically need to download it using the same method you used to get your Lync server media.

  • I have a very similar problem (5506) in that I changed my appleID loginid and now none of my home shares work. All itunes have been re-authorized/authenticated with the new appleID string. Yet I still receive this error. I too am looking for suggestions.

    If you no longer have the computer(s) you want to deauthorise,
    Log in to iTunes,  go to "view your account info" on the itunes store,  deauthorise all five, (Please Note: this can only be done Once every 12 months)  and then re-authorize your current Computer(s) one at a time.

  • Alternative software to Podcast Maker, any suggestions?

    Currently I am using Podcast Maker to publish my podcasts, it works fine when it works but every now and then it crashes and that site has not been updated since July of 2008 so I doubt a update is coming soon to the software.
    Any suggestions on what else I can use? Thanks community!

    It shows in your product details that you are running iOS 4.3.3
    The option for OTA updates (Over the Air) ONLY appear when you are already running iOS 5.
    This means that any device running iOS prior to 5 will need to update via iTunes on your computer, so just plug it in, it will prompt you to update.
    P.S. Make sure you let it back up, and then transfer your purchases before you update, or you may potentially lose all your data.

  • Iphoto does not load into iDVD- too many photos?

    Recently upgraded to Leopard 10.5.6 and iLife '09. Ever since, iPhoto will not load into iDVD (iphoto 8.0 and iDVD 7.0.3). When trying to open current and new projects in iDVD, the project opens, and plays, but the photos from iPhoto never load, the loading icon just spins on and on. When I open a new document, the same thing happens. Tried trashing preferences in both programs, reinstalling iLife, and reparing permissions. All software updates are current. Still won't work.
    I am starting to wonder if it has to do with the number of photos I have in iPhoto, which is about 4000. The photos loaded with no problem until I upgraded. Could it be that the upgrades in iPhoto just make the files too large, and it's too much to expect that many photos to load? Does anyone know how many photos is too many,— or can you suggest anything I have not tired that might work?

    This is from Mac Help. It is a good idea to create another account to use in troubleshooting situations such as this. After you create the new account, open iDVD from that account. Try creating a small project to see if you are having the same problems. Post back with your results.
    _Adding a new user account to your computer_
    You can create individual user accounts for each person who uses your computer. Each new user has a separate home folder and can adjust his or her own preferences without affecting other users.
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences and click Accounts.
    If some settings are dimmed, click the lock icon and type an administrator name and password.
    Click Add and type the user's name.
    If you don't want to use the short name generated automatically, type a new short name. (Once the account is created, you won't be able to change the short name.)
    Type the user's password in the Password and Verify boxes.
    Type a hint to help the user remember the password if they have trouble remembering it at login.
    Click Parental Controls and select options to determine what the user can do with the computer.

  • Too basic to be believed: 1 Windows XP desktop not able to connect to 10g

    I have one Windows XP computer (out of MANY in office) that I cannot create a working ODBC DSN for a 10g database on a linux server in our network. I have tried the 10.2.0.1 instant client, the administrator client, and the 11.0.1.7 instant client. In every case, when trying the "test connection" when adding the DSN I fail on the ORA-12541: TNS: no listener. I know the listener is on since I connect to it from about a dozen other computers.
    I have confirmed the OCI is installed, the ODBC driver on which I base the DSN is (now) the Oracle 11g Client. There is a tnsnames.ora file in the ORA_HOME/network/admin/ folder. The tnsnames file is the same as on a computer that can connect.
    This is SO odd. I cannot figure out where to look next.......

    To WyreNut,
    Thank you for your information on loading software for my Palm Desktop 4.2.1 to my PC using Windows XP. I was able to get it loaded but I am not able to create an address book to work with our names data base. I can get Contacts but that is it. I read the manual you had sent the link to as well, but it did not give me the information I needed. I did print up instructions from our Mac but what I downloaded is not the same. If you have any other suggestions I would love to hear them.
    Thank you,
    Are you using a Palm device, or just the software?
    If using the device, when you do a Hotsync to the PC, all data should transfer to Palm Desktop.
    "Contacts" is the newer name for the "Address Book", so I'm not quite sure what you mean by not being able to create one...?
