Iphoto slideshow editing

I wish to create a slide show using all the available photos taken. In my case 1000 photos. I then would like to "tag" the photos that I do not wish to show. Is this possible? A system as described is used in Powerpoint. This avods the need to move photos in and out of a separate folder which can be confusing and time consuming. Help please

In a word, no.
If you want to do this you can try PhotoToMovie (http://www.lqgraphics.com) I've had some success with it.

  • I saved photo into iPhoto slideshow, but now I can't find it.  I wanted to open it in iPhoto so I could edit the photo and make it lighter.  How can I find the photos I saved into iPhoto slideshow?

    I need advise about saving photos into iPhoto.  When I chose to save a photo, I chose it to be saved into iPhoto slideshow because that's the only choice I had that mentioned iPhoto.  Now I can't find the photo in iPhoto.  What did I do wrong?

    Post in the iPhoto forum where those experts are.

  • Iphoto slideshow on tv

    I'm trying to watch an iphoto slideshow on my tv. so I bought a "mini-dvi to video adapter" but when I connect it to my tv via the video connector (yellow) all I see is my wallpaper and nothing else, no mouse pointer movement, files opening or anything else, just my wallpaper, I can't see my iphoto slideshow either. any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

    Try hooking up the MacBook to the TV with the MacBook off and then boot it up. Also with the TV connected to the MacBook go into the System Preferences/Monitors pane. There should be an option to set the monitor and TV. Don't remember exactly what it looks like as it only comes up if there's an external monitor or projector connected. There may be a setting that needs to be changed.
    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. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar.

  • Using Keynote and iPhoto slideshow together

    Computer: 12" Powerbook G4, 1.5ghz
    Display: 23" Apple Cinema Display (1920x1200)
    Software: OSX 10.4.9, Keynote 2, iPhoto 6
    Hi everyone! Above are the specs for the project I'm working on and here's the problem I'm having:
    I am trying to create a makeshift kiosk display for an upcoming event using slides in Keynote and a picture slideshow in iPhoto. I'm planning on running it off my Powerbook to my 23" Cinema Display.
    I'm using Keynote for the presentation content because of the motion effects (transitions, build-ins, etc.) and iPhoto for the image slideshow because of the Ken Burns effect (which I don't believe Keynote has). Both look great running seperately, however when this is being displayed at the show, I'll need both to run back to back automatically, without having to manually switch back and forth between applications.
    I have both the Keynote presentation and the iPhoto slideshow displaying at 1920x1200. I've tried exporting the iPhoto slideshow to Quicktime, but it won't export any higher than 640x480. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can make this work? I won't be able to operate the computer when this is running, so I really need to find a way to make everything run seamlessly while keeping the high resolution of the 1920x1200 monitor.
    Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated!
    Thanks,
    -Steve

    iMovie is a DV editing app and the final results would still make a 640X480 file.
    I would change a few things to make everything work together:
    First is the display resolution. You want the 23 inches to be used so just reduce the display preferences to try and match your QuickTime file. 800X600 sounds about right but larger will still work as H.264 Video scales up in size very nicely.
    This would force you to "reduce" the dimensions of the Keynote file but that shouldn't be much of an issue.
    QuickTime Pro could also be used to "change" the dimensions of the 640X480 file. Again, H.264 scales up in size and would look pretty good at even double size.
    The goal is to have them both at the same dimension and then match the monitor resolution.
    Easier to change the display than the files.

  • Using iphoto and editing multiple photos in photoshop

    I set iphoto to edit my photos in photoshop. I tried to edit a group of photos at once, and it'll only open the first 4 pictures. Is there a reason I can't open more than the first 4 photos that I have selected? Is there a setting in photoshop I need to change that is preventing me from opening more photos?
    Thanks!

    As Larry said that's a "limitation" of iPhoto. Report that to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html. I think you can go back to iPhoto and select another 4 photos and open them in PS with the original 4 still open.
    For what it's worth:
    Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
    If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.

  • How to put Titles in iPhoto slideshows

    I truly love the slideshows I create in iPhoto with music...
    "BUT", I'd also like to add a brief comment before, during or after the slideshow, and I've found this impossible to do.
    Is Apple waiting for the new upgrade to address this problem?...
    I've gone into my wordprocessor "Appleworks, and text-edit", hoping I could then export/import the titles into iPhoto, but to no avail...
    I enjoy creating slideshows with music, then burning them, then playing them on stereo sound television, and its a total blast for me when I view my creations.
    So, Apple, or readers on this site, please help a poor old man towards the path of enlightenment, for life can truly be beautiful with "titles"...
    Thanks to all...

    Terence,
    Don't know if you misunderstood my problem, but today, I found the solution to putting titles into iPhoto slideshows, and its pretty simple also.
    I don't know how to enter a link here in order to include the directions on how to create titles in iPhoto..
    But, briefly, create the title in any wordprocessor.
    Take a screen shot.
    Drag it into an iPhoto icon
    Then, drag the icon into the iPhoto library.

    We have no idea what enhancements - if any - are
    planned for iPhoto. What you want to do cannnot be
    done with iPhoto unless you use a third part editor
    to create images with the comments, and import the
    images into iPhoto and then incorporate them into
    your slideshow. There are other apps that can caption
    and use comments. Check out PhotoToMovie from

  • IPhoto slideshow to iDVD gives poor movie quality

    Hello,
    I would like to take an iPhoto 08 slideshow and turn it into a DVD disc.
    iPhoto's feature: "Share > Send to iDVD" is really great, except that it converts my slideshow to a compressed QuickTime .mov file.
    I really, really do not like what the QuickTime compression is doing to my image quality.
    I seem to recall that iPhoto was once able to export as an uncompressed .DV file. But I can no longer find that feature or workaround.
    Does anyone know of a way to turn an iPhoto slideshow into a .DV file? Or, at least some kind of video file that iDVD will recognize and which does not use compression (like AVI or something?).
    Thanks in advance!

    Another 3rd party slideshow application with many export options is PhotoPresenter. It has Full Quality option for exporting which is 768 x 576. It also has over 25 animated themes. This demo page has examples of some of them.

  • Exporting an iphoto slideshow to play in the iphone

    Hello - any ideas how i can get a iphoto slideshow exported to play on an iphone.
    If you export an iMovie - under the share option there is an export movie option, and then you can choose the iphone format?
    Many thanks

    Do you have Quicktime Pro? If you do you can add the movie to the audio track, scaling it to match the track's length, and export for iPhone.

  • How can i delete a photo in a iPhoto slideshow that is in the iCloud?

    I have created an iPhoto slideshow and put in the photo stream and it is now on iCloud.  I want to delete a photo in the slideshow but I can see to be able to edit. I can't get the thumbnails in a the photo browser so that I can choose the photo to delete. What is it that i must do to accomplish this?  Thanks!

    I created the slideshow and shared in the iCloud and made it public website.
    Did you share the photos from your slideshow as a shared Photo Stream and publish this Photo Stream as a public website?
    I can't get the thumbnails in a the photo browser so that I can choose the photo to delete.
    Then delete the photo in the iCloud section of iPhoto's Source list from your shared photo stream.
    Or did you publish a slideshow as a webpage in iPhoto on a mobile device (iPhone, iPad)? In that case, if you already upgraded the mobile device to iOS 8, there is no longer any way to access the webpage, since iPhoto iOS is incompatible with iOS 8.

  • No reflections in iPhoto slideshow

    I do not have any reflections in iPhoto slideshow, how can I reslove this, do the images have to be a certain quality. Also, annoyingly and probably my lack of knowledge but I have to set the settings for slideshow everytime, is there a master preference setting for iPhoto? I just don't care much for that Ken Burns, although I am sure he is a nice guy.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. When you double click a thumbnail you're attempting to enter the Edit mode. What you're experiencing may be corrected by one of several fixes.
    First download and run BatChmod on your iPhoto Library folder as shown here. This will repair permissions on the folder and unlock any locked files that may be in it.
    Another fix is to select one of the files in the Original folder, bring up the Info window (Command-I) and set Preview as the default application. Then click on the Apply to all.. button.
    Another fix, strange as it may seem, is to just open and close each folder containing the original files. Don't ask me why it worked.
    Here is one thread with another possible solution (the second link is to download the file to replace in your system folder):

  • IPhoto slideshow, remove some photos

    I've created an elaborate iPhoto slideshow that looks fantastic (custom settings for nearly every slide). 
    QUESTION:  I'd like to make a DIFFERENT slideshow by removing a few slides from my origonal 'fantastic' slideshow while keeping the origonal one intact.  I know I can edit and alter my current slideshow in iPhoto but that will change the current slideshow--which I want to remain intact so I can use it as my base, starting slideshow.  I'd rather copy the slideshow in iPhoto (with the photos along the top and able to adjust settings for each slide) maintaining the order and settings with the ability to remove several slides.
    Does that make sense?
    I've searched duplicate iPhoto slideshow and all i find is ways to add duplicate photos to the slideshow.
    Any tips? Thanks for your input!
    Chad

    select the slideshow in the source pane on the left and duplicate it (command - D) so youy have two copoies of the show and can change each one independently

  • Why does the iPhoto slideshow I exported as a movie only last 5 seconds?, How do I save an iPhoto slideshow as movie?

    I followed the instructions for exporting an iPhoto slideshow as a Qucktime movie, but when I drag it onto my iWeb page, it only plays for 5 seconds.  What am I doing wrong?

    I started having this problem last week. It affects new and old photos. Maybe one in several hundred photos has this problem. Some of them were fine earlier and have been in iPhoto for years.
    This seems to be a rendering problem of some sort. When I click on the thumbnail, a fuzzy low-rez image comes up full size, but instead of resolving to full resolution the screen just goes black.
    I imported 30 images yesterday. Jpegs created from RAW files by Nikon Capture. All but one are fine. The actual file in the library seems OK (I tried the suggestion above). I can export the photo and it's fine in mail or other viewers. It's just that Iphoto can't seem to display it at full/high resolution. At first I thought that it might be due to the size (12Mpxl) but the other ones are fine, and some of the old images this happens to are small (2mpxl) and taken as jpgs by an old canon point and shoot.
    I'm using Iphoto8 7.1.3(364) and the only thing that's changed on my computer recently is adding the latest 10.4.11 java and security updates.
    I tried to duplicate the photo, and the problem also occurs with the duplicate. I can't do the revert trick, since I haven't edited the file in any way since import.
    Any help would be appreciated. I'm happy to send the affected photo if it helps.
    Thanks.

  • Iphoto slideshow in imovie?

    I have made a slideshow in iphoto.
    I would like to use this at the begining of a movie in imove.
    Can this be done?
    Many thanks

    I don't know which version iPhoto you have but the one I've got has an Export button sitting right next to the Play button when I have a slideshow open in iPhoto. Click on Export and in the options available choose the "Large" size. This is the exact same dimensions iMovie uses to edit your projects when you are working on video. Uncheck the box marked Open in iTunes when done (you don't want to send it to iTunes). Also, choose to save it to the desktop so you can import it into an iMovie event when you are done. It will be saved into the iPhoto Slideshows folder inside the Pictures folder in your home folder. Go the File>Import>Movies... then click through to where the Slideshow movie was saved.
