IPhoto slideshow missing music on FIOS

I recently installed Verizon FIOS triple play, and use their Media Manager to watch an iPhoto slideshow on our TV. 2 slideshows are fine, with music. But I can't get the music to play on a 3rd slideshow. For the 3rd slideshow, I purchased the music (MP3) from Fisher-Price, as the iTunes Store didn't carry it. Could this be the problem? Is there anyway to get the playlist to play along with the slideshow? Thank you.

thanks guys, but can anyone help me out?

Will an iPhoto slideshow with music work on all computers in China?

I am making a promotional DVD for an education program in the US, and taking it to China to education fairs. If it is an iPhoto slideshow with music, will it work on all Chinese computers? I assume so, because since it is not video, I should not have to worry about different formats-right? I've got enough to worry about on this trip!
Prof. Fisher

On every single computer in China? Impossible to tell. But if you create a slideshow in iPhoto and send it to iDVD to be burned to a DVD then it will play on anything that plays DVD.

Apple TV Streaming iPhoto Slideshow/Streaming Music Playlist

For some reason my Apple TV lists Photo-Settings-Music>Off and I can't change it. I have a Music Playlist selected in iPhoto Slideshow settings on my iMac that I stream from but I'm getting no music when streaming photos to Apple TV. I thought the Apple TV listed my streaming playlists before but it seems to have oddly disapeared. I've rebooted both my iMac and Apple TV but no change. I've also disconnected from my iTunes libary and reconnected but it still hasn't corrected this problem. Am I missing a menu for this option somewhere on the Apple TV? Thank you for any assistance that you can provide.

Although you have only one library and stream only there are essentially 2 ways to look at setting this up.
You can set your library up as a shared (or secondary library) in which event it can only stream content.
Or you can set your library up as a primary library in which event it will have streaming and syncing capabilities, even though you don't actually select anything to sync.
Think of this as syncing turned off vs syncing turned on but with no items syncing. I do believe unless you set things up the latter way your music library won't be available to use in conjunction with slideshows.
This does of course mean that you would then need to sync your photos from your primary library. Primary libraries require that photos are synced. If you had any secondary libraries they would then be able to stream their photos and use the music from the primary library for slideshows.

Creating DVD from iPhoto Slideshow with music

I'm trying to create a DVD of a slideshow with music that was created previously in iPhoto and then "Shared with iDVD". The .m4v file located in Pictures> iPhoto Slideshows is not accessible in iDVD. The only way I can make it work is to spend the hour or so required to start from scratch by clicking "Share with iDVD" from an open iPhoto slideshow, thus creating a .m4v file and then going directly to the iDVD menu that's automatically opened at the end of the "Share with iDVD" process. Any ideas?

Welcome to the forums.
When I'm going from iPhoto to iDVD with a slideshow, I get good results by Exporting from iPhoto to a large-sized Quicktime movie. I can preview the video and music, and if I'm happy, I can then just drop the Quicktime file onto the iDVD menu area (not into a drop zone, that's just eye candy). It's been a reliable process for me.

Iphoto slideshow no music possible ...

in iPhoto I can only use the tidbits of music that was delivered with iPhoto but not o n e of my own songs or playlists. They show up but don't play.
I have already played around with div. aple.com.playlists but without success. I hve deleted iPhoto and loaded it again from the store, the same situation as before.
Please give me an advice how to get iPhoto-slideshows w i t h music.
Thank You
Roland from Austria

Roland and topcop1,
I am experiencing the same problem... All the iPhoto Slideshow menu items appear to be working as they should, and I'm able to select iTunes songs, but they simply do not play in the slideshow... Have the same problem on two different computers...
The music does, however, play if I open the iPhoto Library in Aperture, and play the slideshow from Aperture.
I'll continue to investigate...will probably send feedback to Apple...

ATV iPhoto Slideshow with/Music

Hi-
I recently purchased an Apple TV to show my iPhoto slideshows on my flat-screen TV. I am a wedding photographer and use the slideshows as part of my presentation to potential clients. These slideshows have music playing in the background and in iPhoto the music is set to loop until all of the pictures have been displayed. Unfortunately on my Apple TV the song plays once and then stops, for some reason it is not looping in the ATV as it does on iPhoto. I called Apple support and was told that is how it works. I find it hard to believe the that the ATV would display the slideshow different than how I have it setup on iPhoto. Anyone else experience this?
Alex

That's odd, I'm able to loop a single song to my photo slide shows on my tv. You can do this by creating a playlist in itunes on your computer that contains the song you want to loop. Sync your playlist back to your tv. Go to Photos from the tv menu and select Slide Show Preferences > Music, select the playlist that you just created in itunes with your song of interest for looping. Back out of the music menu to Slide Show Preferences and set Repeat to "On" below the music menu.

Iphoto slideshow--adjusting music timing

Hello all,
Here's my issue...I'd like to add music (from Itunes) to my Iphoto slideshow. I want to adjust the timing of the song played (i.e. in Itunes I can choose a start time and end time for each song by getting info). However, when I make these adjustments in my Itunes playlist, then select that playlist for use in the slideshow, it plays the songs with their standard timings.
Is there any way I can get Iphoto to recognize these timing changes or do I have to play each song in its entirety?

Hi biiru 1000,
Editing in iTunes:
Select Song. Get info>Options. Edit start stop times.
When edited, select song. Advanced menu_ convert selection to AAC ( of format you have set in preferences).
Arrange library window by "Date Added" -- It will be the newest thing but this new copy won't have a title etc. Rename.
this works for your imported music. I am not sure if it will work with purchased tracks from the ITMS as I have not tried it yet.

IPhoto Slideshow with Music to MobileMe

Is it possible to upload a slideshow with music background to MobileMe, so that the music selected in for the slideshow also plays in MobileMe?

You need to export the slideshow as a QuickTime movie and then upload that to MobileMe. And you need the permissions from the copyright owners for the music, of course.

'08 iphoto slideshow with music

I am making a slideshow for my parents' 50th anniversary in '08 iPhoto. I created a playlist in my iTunes and clicked on the Anniversary playlist in Music for my slideshow. I see the 4 songs in my playlist but it continues to play one song over and over. How do I get it to play the next 3 songs in my playlist as well? Thanks!

I use Audacity www.audacity.com to make one track to play along with slideshows. It's a free ausio editing app - you can use only parts of the songs, create crossfades, and do a whole lot of other stuff if you're interested.
But to answer the question you asked...I think you can hold the shift key to select multiple tracks within a playlist. In other words, when you click a playlist, you have to choose a track to go with the slideshow. Using the shift key allows you to select more than one song.

Iphoto slideshow to music and dvd

I am trying to create a slideshow of pictures to music and then burn a dvd. I created a slideshow in iphoto, but I cant figure out how to add more than one song or to time certain songs with picture sections. Can anyone help me?

You can add more songs by making a Playlist in iTunes and then pointing iPhoto at the playlist and not any of the songs.
However, if you're trying to cut against the music you'll find iPhoto is quite limited in that regard - especially as it has no ability to edit the music. Other apps such as iMovie, PhotoToMovie or Final Cut Express are a bit better suited to close interaction between the music and the visuals.

IPhoto Slideshow missing?

Hi, hope you can help. I edited several slideshows in iPhoto, and made changes on these over the past couple of months. When exporting one of them, it took too long and I cancelled the Export (but I didn't force quite or anything). When I went back to iPhoto six of my slideshows were missing from the slideshow list and is also not in the trash.
Where can I find a list of the slideshows that I've created? It is quite urgent as I've done many edits on these.
Thank you!

Marinda
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
1. Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the apple and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
2. Restore from your back up.

Uploading an iPhoto Slideshow with Music

I just spent a bunch of time designing a photo slideshow from my daughter's birthday party, complete with synchronized music, and I was hoping to post it on .mac so that I could simply invite others to view it on the web. Now that it's finally finished, though, I can't figure out how to upload it. Do I need to burn it to disc in order to share it? Can I share it on .mac, or do I need to use something like YouTube? I'm a total novice here, so any guidance, not to mention concrete instructions, would be appreciated! Thanks!

Thanks, Terence! One of the best things about switching to a Mac, for me, has been discovering the amazing community of people out there who are so smart and capable and willing to help the newbies. I never feel frustrated and alone like in the old PC days....

IPhoto slideshow - missing pictures

I created a new album from selected pictures. I then hit the slideshow button, customised the slideshow and it worked perfectly the first couple of times. Since then, (the following day, some of the pictures fail to appear in the slideshow (i.e. blank). What's up?

Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). A Finder Window should open with the file selected. Does it?

Burn iphoto slideshow with music to dvdr

I am having trouble burning a slideshow to a DVD. Can this be done?

Yes.
But what are you trying to do, exactly?
Burn a DVD that you can play on your domestic DVD player? If so, you need to use the Share -> Send to iDVD as only iDVD can make such a disk
Just back up a Slideshow to a Disk? Then export it as a QuickTime movie and burn that with the FInder.
