IPhoto '11 Slideshow Settings not working

running iphoto 9.2.3
not matter how many seconds i put into the "play each slideshow for X" setting
the slides only show for about 3 seconds. that was last night
now i am putting in various durations (3-7 seconds long) but after i close window
and open it again then the duration is set back to 5 seconds every time but
the slides are showing for 3 seconds
have been making slideshows for family gatherings for over 7 years, first time
to have this problem
restarting computer did not work
disk utility and repair disk permissions did not work

yes, the problem still exits with a new library.
Have also tried holding down option and command key and then rebuilding thumbnails, repair database, and examine + repair permissions
however, i just noticed that the problem affects the theme "vintage" but did not affect the theme "ken burns."
in the interest of getting the suitcases packed and the family in the car i may just give up on vintage
lastly, looked for my file com.apple.iPhoto.plist and could not find it...which seems strange to me.
i also routinely use disk utility to repair permissions and notice that this iMac (2011) always has several pages of permissions to repair whereas my previous iMac (2006) would remain stable for a week. maybe my new mac is gamey?

Iphoto 11 slideshow & music not working [OSx 10.8.2]

Hi,
For some reason my slideshow will not play music after I press "PLAY."
Is there a reason for this? Volume is up and everything looks to be ready to play the slideshow; I think is has to do with the new OS. I've had no problem in the past.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Peter

CLOSE THREAD. THE PROBLEM FIXED ITSELF

Just upgraded to iPhoto 11. slideshow does not work. just is black.

I just upgraded to iPhoto 11. I am on a MacPro desktop.
Slideshow does not work for either the existing slideshows or to create new one.
Just a black screen. When you click on the slideshow button it fades for a microsecond like it is going to go to slideshow...but then just a black box where teh photo should be.

Can you view the photos normally at full size?
Regards
TD

Iphoto slideshow does not work

How do I get iPhoto's slideshow function to work without iPhoto 'not responding' message?

Fix it, of course. Now for a more useful answer give us more information to work with.

Just updated to Iphoto 9.1.3 but the slideshow feature not working

Just updated to Iphoto 9.1.3 but the slideshow feature not working at all. Screen goes white but any features selected, nothing is produced .The themes preview windows are blank too. is there something missing?

Sounds like it.
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.

What version of Mac OS X?
What home page?
What browser?

Fox news slideshows are not working in Vista Home 64 bit.

All fox news slideshows are not working since firefox 3.6 started. I can't get them to work in Internet explorer either.

Apple 10.4 managed clients dock settings not working

I have an issues with 3 or 4 of my 10.4 clients all are managed by WGM on an apple 10.5 server. The I have managed dock settings on all apple clients are getting the proper dock settings however I have 3 or 4 clients that are not. The clients that are not getting the dock settings are in the correct computer group. And I don't see any of the clients dedicated in the computer group. And suggestions or tips would be welcome help.

THAT WORKED and all is back to normal.
By the way I did not lose any of the icons on my dock either. All the apps light up under the icon and they now mimimize correctly!!
Thank you very much capfred!!!

Try deleting com.apple.dock.plist from the preference folder located in your user Library.
You can open the hidden library in Finder's menubar, Finder > Go > hold the option key down > select Library.
Edit: you'll have to add back program icons to the dock that you moved there.

Compression settings not working on Premiere Pro CC

I am a freelance editor working for a satellite delivery company. They have specific settings they require for their uplink signals. These setting have worked great on CS5, CS6 and CC2014. However the company is now using CC and these settings create HUGE pixels and the file is unusable. Why do the same settings not work on CC?

You're welcome.

How do I uninstall the iPhoto update which does not work on maverick?

How do I uninstall the iphoto update which does not work. ie it tells me my library is locked out and the recommended action by apple does not open the phot library first aid. ? i need to go back to the old iphoto.

Terence, I was trying a way to message you directly - jumping on a recent thread seemed to be the only way (sorry, DEW45).
Terence, you seem to be the foremost expert on apeture and iphoto and have helped me many times in the past (thanks). I have a question that you may be able to help with (anyone also feel free to take a stab). I use blogger to upload my photos and host my blog (www.sippingespresso.com). I spend hours organzing and editing photos - namely, I will enhance and sometimes alter an image in Apeture. It always saves over the orginal file (at least for viewing purposes), which is fine by me. But then when I go to upload the photos onto blogger it seems to always pull my dull, original image. Obviously, I want the newer, bright, enhanced photo.
I'm one step away from importing them, dragging them out of iphoto and into Photoshop, then editing the files and dragging them back into iphoto, deleting the originals and uploading from there. There HAS to be a better way - please help!! I've already posted far too many boring images without the beauty of Apeture's "auto enhance".
Thanks in advance, Terence or anyone else.

Flash Slideshows Suddenly not working

Hi All,
My site is "www.neilmarksphotography.com"
I have 5 pages leading off "GALLERY" menu option, which all contain flash slideshows created in Lightroom. They have all been working fine, but today I slightly changed the content of the slideshows, and now they are not working - they just show the "GET ADOBE FLASH PLAYER" icon. The home page (index.html) is working fine - I have not changed the code there at all.
I have tried to compare the code in the changed gallery pages with the home page, but cannot see what I have done to stop all the galleries from working properly. GALLERY pages are previewing fine locally off the hard drive. It's only on the live page that I am getting the problem
Any suggestions?
thanks
Neil

thanks for your suggestions - I finally found the problem!

Hi
Try removing the following line of code (marked in red), from the problem pages -
<script type="text/javascript">
var pageTracker = gat.getTracker("UA-3534258-1");
pageTracker._initData();
pageTracker._trackPageview();
swfobject.registerObject("FlashID");
</script>
It may be that your pages are cached in your browser, (viewing locally, in browser), or that the Google analytics code is being ignored by dreamweaver, (if working in dreamweaver), as this requires a live page /server.
