IPhoto 8 Slideshow runs too fast when I export

I painstakingly created a slideshow for a friend to use during her wedding rehearsal next weekend. It was created so specific photos come up during lyrical points in each song. Worked phone in iPhoto but when I exported to Quicktime so she could have the CD to use it runs differently and now the pictures are not in sync with the lyrics. Can anyone help me?

This is a know issue with iPhoto, precision audio syncing. You're best bet would be to useiMovie HD 6 to build the slideshow. With it you can have multiple audio tracks where you can add the audio, crop, fade in and out and match precisely to the photos. From there you can export to iDVD or Quicktime.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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 or later), 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 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. 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.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Why would my video clips be running too fast when played on the monitor panel?

I posted my problem earlier today, but re-reading it maybe I didn't explain myself well enough.
My main question is: "why would my video clips be running too fast when played on the monitor panel ?". This is occuring after I have selected my media from the Tasks Panel and placed them in correct order in the Timeline/Sceneline. I knew something was wrong when I could see that the clips were not indicating their right length when viewed in the (expanded) timeline. They were compressed into just a few seconds, whereas the clips should have been at least 5 minutes. I ran the clips in the monitor and sure enough they ran too fast, with a lot of jerking movements.
The 3 video clips I am trying to make into a HD PAL video were taken with my Nokia N8 mobile video camera. These are in mp4 format. Can this present a problem ? Note that when I play these individual HD clips on my computer in (Windows Media Player) they run fine.
After I placed the clips in my Project Panel (or before in the Organize Workspace), I have perforned no change or manipulation of the clips. They are in their original state.
Just too confirm that the clips did seem to be compressed, I burnt a DVD, the resultant video ran in a matter of seconds.
Help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, that is what the problem was.
Although the video camera on my Nokia N8, mobile was capturing at 25fps,
for some reason once transfered over to PrE9 (via file transfer), the clip was interpreted as 500fps. Once in Interpret Footage I was able to change the fps to 25.
Thanks for the help.

Time is running too fast

Hi there
I've got an iphone 2g, FW 3.1.3 and a very strange issue:
The clock is running too fast. After one day the time on my phone is 1 hour ahead ( 1hour/each day). When i connect and sync, the time on my phone jumps back to the normal time, the time on my macbook.
I did a total reset (came from version 3.0), but with no luck.
Ive got no option "Set time automatically" in my Firmware version.
I hope somebody has any idea what's going wrong.
Thank you for reading anyway.
regards
Pedro

Thanx, that helped!!!
Turned out that one of my homes' NLS_LANG had norwegian_norway and the others had american_america. As soon as I changed the norwegian to american, Forms started and I let go a huge sigh of relief :-))
Thanx again!

Recorded video is not natural and runs too fast.

Hi,
I am facing one of the very strange problem with my cameras and I am not sure whether some unintentional setting is causing that.
When I record the video and try to play it the video does not look natural and runs too fast like 5 min video finishes in 3:20 minutes.
Any ideas what may cause this as until now it was working fine?
Thanks and regards,
Sanjay.

What wre you using to playback the recorded video? If it is the video monitoring software from Cisco, what is the version number?

IPhoto album slideshow runs backwards

iPhoto album slideshow runs backwards. Anyone any suggestions?

Use a regular slideshow created by "File > New Slideshow". These will play manually sorted. The instant slideshows cannot be played in a manual sort order.

My bookmark menu moves too fast when I try to pick a submenu with my mouse.

My bookmark menu moves too fast when I try to pick a submenu with my mouse.
When I am trying to surf to a website using my bookmark menu and
navigating with my mouse, I click Bookmarks, then a main menu item, and then a submenu item. While moving my mouse from the main menu item to the submenu item, if I happen to stray off the main menu item briefly before I get to the submenu item, Firefox picks the wrong submenu item. I ran a utility program recently to "speedup" Firefox on the internet, but I did not want to speed up the menu operation. Please help me get the menu delay back.

You can check for problems with the <b>places.sqlite</b> database file in the Firefox profile folder.

Why are my podcasts running too fast

my podcasts and audio books run too fast so the speech is too quick to listen to, my music seems ok - anyone experienced this problem or got suggestions for me?

Slightly below the scrubber bar the is a box with either 1/2X. 1X or 2X. Those are the playback speeds. Tap on the box to change/cycle through the speeds.

Uncompressed 8-bit running too fast

Hi all,
I've just been given a project in which , for some reason, the footage has been captured using two settings on two different versions of Final Cut.
The DV-Pal captured footage is fine, but there is also uncompressed 8-bit footage and this plays back too fast. It appears to be a 24fps/25fps problem - when I set it to play back at 24 it's fine.
Is there an easy way to either convert it or set it to play back at the slower speed combined with the other footage at normal speed?
Thanks,
Tom

You can scroll in the browers to find the frame rate of this footage.
PAL needs to be slowed down by 4%. You may want to convert PAL to NTSC in Compressor or look into the Nattress plugins to see if he has an easier solution.

Videos run too fast with latest Flash player

I am trying to learn a 3D program and some of them use Flash Player to run. But when I run the video, they run so fast that I can't keep up with them. There is no audio with the video tutorial as it is just a video. Any suggenstion as to how I can slow the videos down so I can keep up with the tutorial? Any and all help will be appreciated.

If they're FLV files, I'd recommend VLC media player. IT has "speed controls" in the interface that Flash Player doesn't. They range anywhere fom half speed to 1/32 to frame by frame if necessary.

Hi my ipad keyboard is too fast when i'm typing exemple when i type a letter a it look like aaaaaa any adea guys thanks

THANKS

Please explain as I have the same issue - I never know what the receiver gets. I do know that sometimes I get a replied/forwarded email with my message embedded in it and it is huge - I have set my fonts at 14pt for typing. but how an i be sure my clients don't see this huge font?
If you have used Mail > Preferences to set your font at 14pt, that will normally leave the size of the font which your recipient sees up to his own software and settings. Your outgoing email body will not contain any info about font and size unless you have deliberately set them for that particular message in the New Message pane.
In the end, it is not always possible to dictate what your clients see. Their software usually gives them the capability, if they want to use it, to read emails in the font and font size they find most comfortable.
it is so easy to enlarge a rec'd email or a safari webpage, but why can't this be done easily?
What is it that you want done exactly? Sometimes Mail just does not have the features people need. So they use Entourage or Thunderbird instead.

Fans running too fast on MBP Core II Duo

Hi there,
I'm starting a new post 'cause the older one was getting unfruitful. Let me wrap up quickly. I've got both a MBP Core Duo and a MBP Core II Duo. I had notice that the fans on my MBP Core II Duo were very noisy compared to the MBP Core Duo. So I ran smcFanControl (NO I HAVEN'T CHANGED THE SETTINGS AND NO smcFanControl ISN'T BAD FOR YOUR COMPUTER), I just used it for MONITORING PURPOSES. Ok.
I've capture both results in movies so you can see the differences. I've used a cloned system and compiled some code to give the cpu some meat. Here are some behaviors I've noticed:
http://web.mac.com/michaf/iWeb/MacBook%20Pro%20Fans/MacBook%20Pro%20Fans.html
(Just run both movies at the same time)
1) The MBP Core II Duo runs at a minimum of 2000 rpm vs 1000 for the MBP Core Duo
2) The MBO Core II Duo shoots very quickly and hangs it's fans much higher.
3) After a while the MBP Core II Duo has a temp of around 68 with fans running at 4500! The Core Duo instead at a similar temp is down to 2300!
I'm recording with my machines and it's barely usable with the fans.
Has anyone noticed the same thing or is it my machine?
Micha

The movies in your link don't appear to be working so can't comment on those.
Your post confirms what I suspect is true about C2D temps compared to CD temps, which is that the C2D is fundamentally no cooler (possibly hotter) than the CD, but Apple have doubled the fan speed in the C2D to make the C2D run cooler.
Seems to me that Apple bent over backwards to make the CD quiet, and this resulted in them running too hot, and with the C2D they have swung the other way.
I am using Fan Control 1.1 on my CD to steer a middle course. I have left it with 1000 rpm min but set it to start ramping the fan speed earlier and more steeply as temp rises. So most of the time it is quiet, and high temps which can be reached with the Apple settings are avoided.
Doesn't help your C2D problem much except to suggest that you use Fan Control 1.1 to devise settings to suit your purposes. I suggest you have Hardware Monitor on continuously (hidden) so that you see what has happened to the temp over typical working sessions using different settings in Fan Control. When you have found what works you don't need to keep Hardware Monitor active.
C2D can't need 2000 rpm the whole time!

Works fine when i run it, broken when i export release build

I have an app that works fine when i press CTRL + F11 to test it. then when i export the release build and run it locally much of its operations dont function any longer. Any ideas why this is happening ?

I am loading an external mp3 file, but the song is playing.
What i am using is the TourDeFlex example named "Audio Visualization" found under OtherCOmponents/Audio.
I just found somthing very interesting out. when i go to the projects bin-debug folder, and run the index.html file it works just fine. If i then copy all thoes files to another folder on my computer and fun them i am back to the same problem. Its like its neededing some file that its not properly exporting.

Code runs too fast once when deployed

My code is a simple "forward until closer than X centimeters" then turn until... The turn occurs fine when I run the code attached by USB. Once I deploy it, the left wheel stops and goes very quickly, as if the whole loop is running once a second or so. Computer is windows XP.
code is attached...
Thanks!

Move Forward Time new2.vi ‏17 KB

Hi M,
Were you able to determine why the Wait_Num.vi wasn't waiting for the requisite number of seconds before the motors stopped in your previous post?
If you changed the last Wait for Away.vi such that it waited until the sensor read farther than 15, do you get a better result? I'm not sure how stable the distance sensors' measurements are, but at 10 from an obstacle, the loop would iterate rapidly and the left motor would pulse as the robot receives measurements; 9.9, 10.1, 9.9, 10.1 …
I hope this helps,

While loop running too fast

I have a while loop that is writing globals into shift registers. When the loop finishes i write these shift registers to a 2d Global array. Everything works great, my problem is that i am writing about 14000 readings/sec into the shift registers with a wait of 0 in wait until next multiple. File is way too big. If i change wait to 1, i get 500 readings/sec, too small. I need a way to slow this loop down, or put a delay in that is less than 1ms. Any help is Greatly Appreciated.
Thanks
Mike

Pincpanter has some good ideas and is probably what you will need to do.
Keep in mind that tuning this way is very system dependant. Changes in processor, processor speed, memory access speed, OS processes running, etc. will all affect the amount of time that LabVIEW takes and therfore takes a lot of tuning for each system.
I just wish I had an even better answer, but I don't.

Fan runs too fast after SMC update

About a week ago I updated the SMC of my Macbook 7.1 (mid 2010).
I even leaved it sometime (days or weeks) on the list of software updates without installing, as it said I should not touch until it was done and it was to fix some compatibility with hardware that I don't have. So I did it at a time I would not do anything.
Since then, the fan began to work at full speed almost permanently, sometimes it slows down to normal operation (really normal, increase rotation when the device heats up, slow down to 2k rpm when it is cold).
I have formated the HD twice, because I tought that had done something wrong, but the problem persisted, so I used the hardware diagnostics and found two error numbers, one for the fast run:
4SNS/1/40000001:TN1D - - 110.00
And another for the extensive test:
4SNS/1/40000001:TN1D - - 1.000
I searched these numbers but the results are not good nor precise, peaple said it's related to thermal detector or the logic board permanently damaged.
My current SMC version (after the update) is 1.60f6
I don't know the old version of SMC.
I installed iStat PRO widget, from where I can see that all thermometers are operating normally (these must be the source of the control of the fan) and the fan running at 6,200 rpm.
I even tried to install Fan Control system pref component, but it can only increase the commanded speed of the fan at any time, never decrease.
I also tried to reset SMC as said in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964 , sugested in https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1306035
Is there a way to roll back to the old SMC version?
Or to install some program to overwrite the wrong control?
Thank you.

you need to bring it to an Apple store or AASP to have it properly diagnosed. Only Apple certified technicians have access to what those diagnostic codes mean.
