Iphoto slide shows on Apple TV ignores Music settings

I use iphoto slide shows on my apple tv as you have more control over the burns effects etc. rather than Apple tv taking control. I have a problem where after setting the slide show timing to fit the music track (fit slide show to music in iphoto) whilst this runs fine within the apple mac , is completely ignored on the appleTV and the music finishes (and repeates) before the slide show ends. any ideas

The timing is probably not ignored but it is likely that transitions are applied differently on the tv and may take a different length of time to occur. Still the effect is the same and unfortunately it's not too pretty. Which is why I chose to stick with simply syncing photos and not slideshows a long time ago.

  • IPhoto slide show music remotely through airtunes?

    I have an iPhoto slide show, and music for the slide show is set up through itunes (an itunes play list). itunes it set to play through speakers though airtunes, which works for regular itunes playlist playing. Can i get my slide show to play though the speakers? It plays through my computer now, seems it ought to be able to send it to my speakers wirelessly like regular itunes can.
    thanks

    Dear "cheers",
    I found airfoil and although a little pricy for shareware ($25), it does exactly what I needed. thanks
    Oddly though, I had trimmed the ends (a few seconds of slience) off a couple songs in iTunes through the Get Info->otions-> stop time, but when the playlist was played through airfoil, it didn't play those shorter versions. So I took all the songs into Garage band and made them all the perfect length and spliced them all into one song, exprted into iTunes, so now things are timed perfectly with one cut that plays with my iPhoto slide show.

  • Synching music to iPhoto slide show

    I have created a playlist in iTunes for my iPhoto slide show. It needs some tweaking here and there to align the music with the correct slides. Is there a way to start in the middle of the show to work on this or must I always start at the beginning. I know I could probably do this in iMovie, but I am crunched right now and don't know if I have the time to invest in learning a new program.
    Thanks.

    Carole:
    With iPHoto you get what it gives you. If you want to precisely align the music with slides export the movie without music. Then import the movie into iMovie and add the tracks. In iMovie you can overlap the tracks for transitioning from one to another, cut tracks to fit, etc. The save the movie or export to iDVD depending on what the final use is.
    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 partly solved: iPhoto slide shows on iPod

    I have had my iPod 60 GB for a couple of days now and was first a bit shocked that iPhoto slide shows are not visible and displayable on the iPod, since I'd like to show my iPhotos thru the iPod on a TV set.
    This is all the more non-understandable since slide shows are only small control files in the end that control order, duration, transitions etc. of slides that are physically there on the iPod already.
    Since I want pictures to be displayed on an iPod slide show in a particular order (the one I arranged in iPhoto) I tried different things (after not having found a solution in various forums) and, voila, here is a solution:
    Just put the images you want to include in the iPod slide show into an iPhoto album (not into a slide show; iPhoto albums are shown on the iPod, while iPhoto slide shows aren't). Then rearrange the order of the pics within the iPhoto album to your heart's content via drag and drop. This at least works in iPhoto 6, don't know whether this applies to earlier versions.
    Finally, sync the iPod via iTunes, and you'll find your album with the correct order of pics on the iPod, playable of course as an iPod slide show.
    So, I still don't see my older iPhoto slides shows, which is a pity, but at least for now and the future (until Apple provides an upgrade to iPhoto and/or iPod, HELLO, APPLE, someone awake??) it works for me.
    I hope this helps some of you who were as desperate as I was...
    Cheers Jochen

  • IPhoto slide show stopped working, just showing the first chosen picture, the same with the sound. iPhoto 9.5.1(902 17), MacBook Pro and Maverics. How to solve this problem?

    iPhoto slide show stopped working, now showing just the first chosen picture, and the same with the music. iPhoto 9.5.1 (902.17), operating system Maverics 10.9.2
    How solve this problem?

    There's a bug with iPhoto 9.5 and Mavericks in that slideshows from Albums do not play correctly if they are sorted manually.  Only photos that have been sorted by date, keyword, rating or title will play from albums correctly.
    To have a slideshow with photos sorted manually use the slideshow mode in iPhoto.
    Send a bug report to Apple viahttp://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

  • Convert iphoto slide show to mov format?

    hello, I just want to ask that, can I convert iphoto slide show into mov format??? I tried to select all pics, and export them as a mov, but the problem is, in the iphoto slide show, the pics can be moved and fit the screen size, but when I i export it, the pics just set in the middle , no any effect.

    1. Select the photos you want to use, and click on the +. In the window that appears, select slideshow, and give your project a title.
    2. Choose your transitions and music.
    3. Go to File>Export; this will create a QuickTime movie- a .mov file.
    4. For information on playback, read this section from QuickTime Player Help.
    _Viewing Movies at Full Screen_
    You can set the screen so that only the movie is visible, not the QuickTime Player window, desktop, or other windows. This presentation setting is called "full-screen mode." (You can also set a movie to play at half size, double size, or other sizes.)
    To play a movie at full screen, do one of the following:
    Choose View > Full Screen.
    Choose View > Present Movie, choose Full Screen, and click Play.
    To quit full-screen mode, press Esc. To adjust the way the picture is sized to fit your screen, such as stretched to fit or in letterbox format, move the pointer to the top of the screen to display the QuickTime Player menu options, and then choose a setting from the View menu. The following additional options are available in full-screen mode:
    Fit to Screen: The content is scaled to fill your screen as fully as possible without cropping the movie or changing the aspect ratio.
    Zoom: The content is scaled and cropped to completely fill your screen in at least one dimension. This can eliminate black areas on the top (letterboxing) or side (pillarboxing) but may hide or distort the content.
    Panoramic: The content is scaled to fit your screen and the outer horizontal edges compressed to avoid cropping the image.
    You can also cycle through all of the available full-screen options by clicking the button in the movie controls that appear when you move the pointer.
    You can also set options for all movies playing at full screen. For example, you can hide the movie controls or change the amount of time they're displayed before being hidden. To set these options, see QuickTime Player preferences.
    Note: As long as "Display full-screen controls" is selected in QuickTime Player Preferences, you can make hidden controls appear by moving the pointer.
    I hope this helps.

  • Email iphoto slide show

    How do I send an iphoto slide show with music via email?

    Probably, you don't.
    Many email services have an attachment limit if 20mb and some an attachment limit of 10mb. That means that video is rarely suitable for emailing.
    Options:
    Upload it to a sharing site like YouTube or Vimeo and email a link - these will allow the recipient to view the material onlne.
    Upload it to sharing services like Dropbox or YouSendIt and email a link. This will require that they downoad the material to their machines to view.
    To get the slideshow out of iPhoto you export it.

  • IPhoto slide show not able to open Itunes library - Authorization issue

    When I open Itunes, i can play all my purchased music fine. But when I open IDVD or an IPhoto slide show that uses purchased music, it constantly asks to authorize the computer to play the song again. Its to the point where I cannot even open idvd without that authorization window coming up over and over again making it impossible to use those applications at all! Iphoto slideshow won't even open my library since my first song is a purchased one!
    What is going on?
    Also...Now i am using up all my authorizations to play these songs and I just have three computers!!!

    Hi Abigail,
    Upgrade your Quicktime to the latest version.
    You are not using up your authorizations so don't worry. When you get to the limit, you have the opportunity to de authorize all computers and you can then authorize just the computers you want again.

  • Iphoto Slide Show - Video/Audio Out to TV

    I am interested in outputting my iPhoto slide shows to my home television, show I can show my slide shows on a bigger display. Is there a cable that can be used to connect my computer with my TV? I am using a PowerBook G4 15". Thanks.

    I used to have the G4 PB and the answer is, yes you can. However as I don't have it anymore I can't be specific about the connections. Check on the G4PB list

  • Using FCE to improve an iPhoto slide show exported DV file

    Hello everyone
    I was looking for a quick good way to create a slide show easily, without manually adding various transitions, panning etc....
    Well, iPhoto makes a great slide show, fast n easy music and all.
    I've exported a Slide Show as a 'Large Sized DV File'.
    Only problem, as everyone knows, the iPhoto Slide Shows look great on a high resolution computer screen, but when using the exported DV file on a DVD, it's not as good.
    I have found however, that re-importing it into FCE, rendering it, and re-exporting it, produces better results when this DV File is used on the DVD.
    Anyone have any comments about this?
    Thanx

  • How do I mute the sound on a movie clip that I'm using in iphoto slide show?

    I cant get rid of the sound on a movie clip I'm using in an iphoto slide show. I want to mute it as I'm using music on the slideshow. Thanks!

    Did your Mac come with iMovie preinstalled?
    Then you could export your video, import it to iMovie and remove the audio track. iMovie has two methods to silence a video clip - you can either select the clip in the project and use the command "Detach audio" or chance the audio settings of the clip and set the volume to zero. Then render the video new and import the silent version to iPhoto to use in the slideshow.

  • Placing IPhoto slides shows in a webpage with Kompozer

    My IWeb program basically crashed and does not recognize my website for editing. I have recreated the entire site with Kompozer except for the slide shows. Can I add an IPhoto slide show with Kompozer?
    Carl

    I suppose if you export the slideshow as a Quicktime file
    Click to view full size
    you can upload it to your server and embed it into a web page with Komposer. I've not used it so can't comment on it. With an HTML editor it would be possible using the appropriate code.
    Regarding your iWeb domain file and web site: try the following:
    1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
    2 - go to your User/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete the contents.
    3 - reboot.
    4 - launch iWeb and see if the domain file will open.
    If that doesn't help continue:
    5 - move the domain file from your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
    6 - launch iWeb, create a new test site and save.
    7 - go to the your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
    8 - move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
    9 - launch iWeb and try again.

  • How can I have a live slide show via Apple TV?

    I've got a second gen Apple TV with the latest sw and iTunes is updated as well.  I can play a slide show from Apple TV sourced from a folder on my Mac just fine.  However, when I add an image to the folder, the running slide show does not pick it up.  I need to stop the slide show and restart it again for the image to be included.
    is there a way that the slide show can pick up files as they are added to the folder?  I would rather not stop and start the slide show every time a photo is added to the folder.  Any other ideas of how I can do this?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately you can't do that.
