Ipod will not display photo slideshow on TV

I can't get my Ipod touch to play a slidewshow on my TV. I conected with cables and selected the apporpriate input on the TV

Hi btabz,
The wording on the Apple Store for the iPod AV Connection Kit does seem to indicate otherwise:
"This kit includes everything you need to connect your iPod to your home stereo or television so you can share your favorite tunes, snapshots and movies with friends and family. Compatible with all iPod models with Dock connector.*"
"iPod AV Cable
On one end, the iPod AV Cable connects to the headphone port of the iPod or the line-out port on the iPod Universal Dock. On the other end, it connects to the left/right stereo input jacks on a stereo, powered speakers or TV and the composite video input on a TV or monitor. "
"*About iPod Compatibility All iPod models with Dock connector are compatible with the iPod AV Connection Kit. Different iPod models offer different capabilities:
Music playback: All iPod models with Dock connector
Slideshows: iPod with color display and iPod with video
Video playback: iPod with video"
I haven't bought the kit yet but I can't see anything on the webpage that says you can't display SlideShows on the TV.
I think I'll ask a Genius as I'm going to the Apple Store in a couple of weeks for some retail therapy
Regards,
Colin R.

  • My Mac Air iphoto will display thumbnails but will not display photos in any way - single photo / slideshow etc - any ideas

    My Mac Air iphoto will display thumbnails but will not display photos in any way - single photo / slideshow etc - any ideas?

    Are you seeing this
    when you double click on a thumbnail file?  If so it's an indication that the file path/link between the thrumbnail and original, full sized file has been broken.  Therefore, and assuming you're running iPhoto 9 or later, try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.
    2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

  • Ipod will not display track and artist name when i play a song

    ipod will not display track and artist name when i play a song... i cant see the the volume display to adjust it eiether. Everyting shows up in the menus just not on the now playing screen.... any suggestions?

    Try restoring your iPod. Just be aware that restoring will erase the hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions and it should connect to iTunes and give you a prompt to automatically update your library onto the fresh installation. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists choose no and it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7

  • Error -208! iPod will not update photos!!

    My iPod doesn't update my Photos at all. When I plug in the iPod I immediately get the Error -208 message, it skips over the photo update, and moves right to the music update, which the music updates just fine, but not the photos. Any solutions?
    I took my iPod to Apple Store a few weeks ago to see what they would say. We tested it out on a computer there and it updated everything perfectly of course, so they couldn't do anything for me. They told me to try and rebuild my iPhoto library when I got home, so I tried that, but it didn't work.

    Error -208 is a java error, I believe. You may want to reinstall java on your computer. If that doesn't help, maybe reinstalling iTunes will . . .
    Good luck!

  • PSE 6.0 will not display photo collage theme or layout

    I just purchased PSE 6.0 for imac on Tues.  I would like to use the photo collage option, but zero options work.  I installed it/uninstalled it and it still did not fix it.  It is in the process of downloading ADOBE BRIDGE CS3 WITH START MEETING 1.0.1.  I have waiting a day and a half for it to update, it will not finish the update.
    I have also called apple icare for support and they troubleshot everything and have determined that it is a software problem.
    Please help.  I have photos to finish.

    Could what be? Sorry, I don't understand what you're asking.
    First thing to try: quit PSE, then go to your hard drive>library>application support>Adobe>Photoshop Elements>6.0>Locale>en_US (that will be different if you aren't in the US) and delete mediaDatabase.db3. In the Photoshop Elements>6.0 folder level, also delete ThumbDatabase.db3. Note that these files are in the library folder at the top level of your hard drive, NOT in system>library or your username>library.
    Repair permissions and relaunch PSE. Let it sit for a few minutes without using the program to give the database time to rebuild. You can try once you see the icons appear in the Effects palette.

  • IPod Will Not Display In My Compuater unless updating and album art.

    Okay, when I plug my Ipod into my computer now it doesnt seem to immediatly recognise it. It takes a few minutes. When it does finally catch my IPod is not adding with any of my new songs the album art with it. It was also saying that ITunes Artwork file temp 2 was corrupt or something. I just want to get this problem solved before my 3 months are up cause its coming in two weeks.

    Have you Restored it?
    just want to get this problem solved before my 3 months are up cause its coming in two weeks.
    The iPod comes with a one year warranty.
    You get one telephone support issue in the 90 days (meaning you ca call that one issue within the 90 days) and get it solved.
    You have one year in which to have it repaired/replaced under waranty.
    You can post here forever.

  • My iPOD will not display visual during Video Playback - only Audio.  Help!

    My movies and TV shows are successfully downloaded from iTUNES and successfully synched to my iPOD, however, when I attempt to playback on my iPOD, I can only hear the content and not see it. The only thing I see is the movie album cover and the name of the movie and that is all. Any suggestions are appreciated.
    thanks.

    On the menu of your iPod go to Videos> Video Settings> and turn TV Out to off. Hopefully this will help.

  • IPad will not display photos from library

    Hi there,
    have iPad 1 and strange problem noticed since uprgaded to OS5. I have photo album (Portable Album) on my MacBook Pro that is prepared for portable devices, namely iPad and iPhone. So I do sync and status bar is showing all 177 pictures transferring into iPad.
    Go to iPad and there are only 6 pictures availabe to be seen. Absolutely same thing happens with iPhone. There is a "Camera Roll" album with whatever I shot with iPhone and "Portable Album" with only 6 pictures there instead of 177 total!
    Pictures are made by different cameras, mostly my Olympus and imported into iPhoto. What is going on, can anybody explain or help?

    Are you transferring the album from iPhoto?
    Try deleting the iPod Photo Cache from your Mac.

  • IPOD will not display in new version of iTUNES

  • Ipods will not display correctly.

    Tried to reset my Ipod touch and now only shows the apple and then shows white screen.  When hooked up to the computer it does not recgonize the ipod.  Any help would be great

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • 3.1.2 - iPod will not sync photos even if there is space available

    The previous post's subject was not capturing the fact that the issue applies also to firmware 3.1.2.

    Er.. is the file > then 1.03 GB, or is the total size of the files you're transferring greater than 1.03GB? If it's the former rather than the latter, FAT32 (the file system the iPod is formatted in for Windows) can't really transfer huge files. So... you may want to break the file into chunks, perhaps. If it's a bunch of files totaling 1.03 GB, then I haven't got a clue. I've transferred more than that in one go.

  • Elements 10 will not display my slideshows in full screen, any ideas?

    My 'Full screen preview' remains square with black borders down the left and right sides.  The same happens when outputting to DVD for replaying on TV.  I previously ran Elements 4 on my old machine without this problem!  I would appreciate some help.  Many thanks, Allan Stevenson

      In the slideshow editor click:
    Edit à Slideshow Preferences
    If you have crop to fit selected try un-checking the box.

  • IPod 5G Will Not Display iTunes Videos (Must Restart), All Photos Distorted

    I own a 30GB iPod 5G which has never worked satisfactorily after I purchased the unit last year. In fact, after several trips last year to the Genius Bar at the Apple 5th Avenue store in New York, Apple replaced my unit with a new (or refurbished) model and the problems diminished somewhat. Within the last week I noticed however that my iPod will not display photos without severe distortion and will not display videos downloaded from iTunes at all (the unit requires a restart if I attempt to play these videos). I had taken the unit to an Apple mini-store at a local (Iselin, NJ) BestBuy and, after he entered the serial number into the support form, was told by an Apple badge employee that my warranty for the unit did not expire until Sept. 28 (which was the date I received the replacement iPod). When I took my unit to the 5th Avenue Apple store, I was informed by a Genius Bar employee (Jay) that my warranty expired on July 6 and Apple would not perform warranty service nor could I purchase the extended warranty. He further informed me that Apple badge employees at Best Buy and CompUSA are not “really” Apple employees.
    He wouldn’t call a manager after I requested to speak to one. The only recourse he could offer me was to call the AppleCare 1-800 number, which I immediately did while still in the store. The person at AppleCare (after asking for the serial number) informed me that my warranty didn’t expire until Sept. 28 and if I wanted to I could purchase the extended warranty anytime until that date. I chose not to give my credit card information while standing in the midst of hundreds of customers, but I called the following day (July 14) and was told by the attendant who took my call that my warranty had expired on July 6 and there was nothing he could do to help me.
    Evidently, although I have purchased 11 iPods over the course of the last year as gifts for family members (plus 4 speaker-docks plus more iTunes gift certificates than I can count), I do not count as a valued Apple customer. Could someone at Apple please prove me wrong?
