Iphoto Slideshow only plays first slide of album

Ok- this is a new one for me. Never used to happen. I choose an album with 74 pictures, for example. Then when I hit the slideshow icon only the first slide of the album plays in the slideshow. ???

An easy way to select all of the photos in an album is to just click on the album in the Source pane and then start the slideshow. Even though the individual photos don't show blue, as long as the album shows blue it'll do the job.
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.

  • Slideshow only plays first song in 3 song playlist

    I created a playlist in iTunes for my slideshow. But the iPhoto slideshow only plays the first song in the list over and over again, even if I selected a playlist of three songs when I clicked on the Music button.
    Using iPhoto 08 v7.1.5

    Have you tried creating the playlist in iPhoto?
    Click to view full size
    Find the second and third tracks via the Finder and check their ownership and permissions.
    Another test you can run is to create a new, test library, import the same number of photos as you have in your slideshow and see if you can create a slideshow and play the 3 tracks fully. If you can then the issue lies in your primary library.

  • I downloaded an album from Itunes but one of the songs will only play first 4 minutes. It is the last song on the album. All other songs will play.

    I downloaded an album from i Tunes but one of the songs will only play first 4 minutes of 26 minutes and then stop. It is the last song on the album. All other songs will play. The Album is U.F.O. 2 One Hour of Space Rock.

    Jim, wanted to let you know it worked.  I deleted the entire album since it was an album only (26 minutes long) song, then I went to the home icon of iTunes store, clicked on purchased and saw previous purchases and bam, I downloaded the album again and it now works!!!  Thanks..

  • IPod will only play songs from one album

    Help! I downloaded an album onto my iPod, and now my iPod will only play songs from that album. When I go to select songs from another album, my iPod skips over them like it is searching for something.

  • ITunes will only play first track from an album!

    Hi all
    Have recently upgraded to iTunes 9.2 and it's broken!! For some unknown reason when double clicking on an album in my library, unlike in old iTunes the whole album would play, it now only plays the first track then stops. It will play all the tracks, but I have to keep selecting the next track to play. I want the old, fully working and polished iTunes I'm used to, not this half baked ill thought & rushed out alleged "upgrade"
    Any help or advise would be gratefully appreciated.

    Have the tracks become unchecked? iTunes will skip unchecked tracks, so if they're all unchecked, iTunes will play one and then stop. If this is indeed the case, re-checkmark the tracks - control-click on any checkbox will select or unselect them all - and you should then have continuous playback.
    Hope this helps.

  • Ipod Only Plays First 3 Tracks Of An Album

  • ITouch only plays first song that I touched.

    I cannot play any other songs in Music. Only the first song I touched yesterday will play. Any other album/song I touch stays grey. It will not forward to the next song on the same album. I tried shuffle, but it only shuffles the same song. It is not on repeat either. I have turned iTouch on and off. Am I doing something wrong? Please help. Everything else works fine.

    when you select a song and tap the screen you see a play button, next and previous songs buttons and thane in the top left corner there is the repeat icon and in the left is the shuffle. if the icon is blue it is activated

  • AVI File Captured in Premiere Elements 8 Only Plays First Few Minutes

    Hello folks,
    I'm totally new to this.  My problem: I've recently installed Premiere Elements 8 and used it to capture some mini DV video tapes (via firewire), without any significant problems (other than a few freezes).  Now I've tried to capture some VHSC tapes via my TV card (Avermedia H727). The capture process went well (except that the preview screen was just a fuzzy mess!) but I had to plug the audio inputs into my sound card (onboard) rather than the TV card.
    The caputred files are about 6 + Gb for a 30 minute tape but when playing the captured video back in PrE8 only the first few minutes is available (the length of playback seems to vary unpredictably (1 tape allowed 3 minutes of playback, another a bit less).   The full avi files can be played back in Roxio or Windows Media Player etc but not PrE8.
    Interestingly, videos captured from VHSC via the same TV card in Roxio 2010 Pro will play back correctly and fully in PrE8.   I had to switch audio inputs to the TV card (rather than the soundcard) for the audio to be captured with Roxio.
    My son has tried to help me with this (having some experience on PrE2) but he's also drawn a blank with this.
    I'd be very grateful for any help that you might be able to give as I've not found anything in FAQ although it's not easy to succintly define my search for this problem.
    Many thanks

    Graphics     ATI Radeon HD 4300/4500 series
    All updates for Windows 7 and PrE8 installed

    Thanks John:
    My PC has 2 HDDs and both are of the “green” variety.  Both are partitioned (2 partitions on each HDD) with operating systems on the first partition (Windows 7 Pro 64 bit on one and Windows XP Pro -32 bit on the other, the operating systems are on different physical drives).
    The tips relating to PrPro are hard to follow as they are quite technical and I’m not even sure which ones also relate to PrE8.   It would take me an age to try to wade through this lot.
    My point is that my current setup (for all its imperfections) will capture video (via the TV card) using PrE8 as the capture software.  The setup must be adequate for this task as the complete avi file is played back correctly on Roxio and Windows Media Player but PrE8 fails to recognise any video after the first 3 minutes (approx).
    If I capture to PrE8 using a firewire connection from my mini DV video camera then the capture proceeds normally (apart from odd freezes) and the captured video is all playable in PrE8.
    When capturing using the mini DV camera, I select "DV camcorder" in the “Get Media” menu. However, this only supports Firewire or USB sources.   When capturing from the VHSC tapes via the TV card I have to select “Webcam or WDM Device” as the media source (I’m not convinced that this is the most suitable capture mode but it’s the only one I can find that doesn’t look for either a firewire or USB device.
    It seems as though PrE8 must be putting some code onto the captured video that prevents more of it from playing back because avi files recorded on Roxio will playback fully.   I've tried to copy the PrE8 avi files into a different folder (devoid of any PrE8 project files) and then renaming the file before importing into PrE8 but still only the first few minutes will play.   My thinking here was that perhaps one of the other associated project files that PrE8 creates might be the source of the corrupt info.
    Many thanks for your interest and taking the trouble to respond.

  • 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.
    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. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • HT5557 audiobook only plays first minute

    I have Windows 8 and the newest version of Itunes. I have recently purchased audiobooks from Itunes and on both my ipod and iphone, only the first few minutes plays. I've purchased audiobooks before and never had a problem. I've searched this problem and tried suggestions. I changed to a music file; get info>options>media kind. This worked for 2 of the 4 audiobooks. But the other 2 will not work regardless of what I do. Frankly I'm tired of messing with this, but I paid for these and should not have this much trouble listening to them. Can anyone help?

    This happened to all of my audiobooks after switching to a new comuter. Find your receipt email or access your account and you will see a 'report a problem button' press this for one of them and up will pop a text box - set out which are faulty and how and ask for them to be redownloaded for you. I had around 20 audiobooks doing excatly this and within a day or two of reporting the problem and identifying all affected books they were all waiting for me to download again wen I next accesed Itunes home page. Worked a treat. No quibble. Hope helps. . . . 

  • [Zen Vision:M] videos only playing first 8 seco

    I just got my Z Vision:M today, when I try to play videos that I transfered to the player, the videos only play the first 8 seconds. I updated to the newest version of the firmware and am still getting this problem. How can I fix this? Thanks.

    Since you have had the player for a few years you may need to replace the battery. Also having it sit for a looong time without charging it does not help keep the battery in shape.http://www.batteryuni'versity.com/parttwo-34.htm Slipping the tip of a safety pin into the reset hole while the adapter is attached (difficult but doable). Does the charging icon show it as charging while connected? BTW 3 hours is not enough time to charge when it has sat dead for a while.. If it shows that it is charging power it down & leave it til the blue light by the power switch stops pulsing & the charging icon stops blinking.
