Is it possible to play a slideshow in less than full screen mode

running 10.9.4, latest version of iPhoto. Is there any way I can play a slideshow at less than full screen mode? Like maybe half or quarter screen instead of having the app take over the entire screen? Very irritating. If I could run a slideshow as just one of several apps open on the desktop. Any way to do that?

The slideshow will play inside the iPhoto viewer pane and not in full screen mode, if you use the "Preview" button and not the "Play" button.

  • IMovie 09 Full Screen mode plays the wrong project.

    I just brought home a new MacBook Pro 15" 2.8 GHz with 4 GB & 500 GB HD, I have existing iMovie 09 projects on an external hard drive. When I click on a project, select for it to play full screen and it plays an entirely different project that's not even in the same folder.
    I use iMovie all the time for it's quick editing but very frustrated with accessing files & sluggish playback on various machines. Now it won't play back the correct project in full screen mode.
    I have chased the hardware side of my issues with recent purchases giving me: 215 GB available on my internal hard drive, 811 GB available on my external G-Tech Raid that holds the video project and events and I'm using firewire 800. All updates are done, etc.
    UGH! Any ideas??

    Full screen mode is like the cover-flow view in iTunes. If you move your cursor to the bottom of the screen, you will see the cover flow and can select the movie you want.

  • Is it possible to play keynote on partial screen rather than full screen?

    I want to make a screencast that shows my Keynote slides with builds, but also shows a video of me during the presentation. I have Screenflick, an old version of Camtasia and Snagit. I also have a friend who has Final Cut Pro and can put it all together for me. Any ideas?
    Thank you!

  • Preview full screen mode/slideshow is great, except one thing

    As an owner of a 13 inch screen Macbook Air, I love the full screen slideshow mode. It's especially cool to page through a PDF with the three-fingered side swipe motion. But one annoyance is that every time I go into full screen mode with a PDF, I have to click the Maximize Size icon. Is there any way to set a preference to maximize automatically when entering full screen mode? If this isn't possible, I hope this becomes a feature soon.

    I don't know, since I rarely use it w/19" monitor, but you can file an enhancement report (or bug report) with Apple, via its Bug Reporter system. Join the Apple Developer Connection (ADC)—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report/enhancement request. You'll get a get a Bug (ER) ID number; thus, starting a dialog directly with engineering.

  • How to exit full screen mode while playing a presentation in Keynote '09

    Hi, my question is: when I play a presentation it starts by default in full screen mode; I would like instead to see it in a little box, in order to be able to take notes on another file; how can I do that?

    When playing Keynote will indeed take over the full screen -- there is no option for playing a presentation in a window. However, in the Preferences, under Slideshow, there is an option to enable Expose, which will allow you to switch between a running Keynote presentation and other applications.

  • Need help to play a DV file in full screen mode w/o losing resolution

    I just finished a 20 minute film using iMovie, and in order to share it, I created a Quicktime DV File using the Full Quality mode. However, when I play the obtained Quicktime file in full screen, the images become blurry and the titles are unreadable, so I am forced to sticking to the standard size (which is relatively small).
    I need to project this video THIS SAME WEEK on a screen in front of a large crowd and the largest screen size for Quicktime to avoid pixelation is very small (1/6 of my screen).
    Is there any way in which I can get a larger resolution DV file than the one iMovie creates? How can I share this with the audience w/o having to project it from the original iMovie file?
    HELP PLEASE...!!!!! I am desperate, so any urgent advice will be greatly appreciated. And please note I am a novice at iMovie (first time I used it). Any help to increase the resolution quality of my DV file will be EXTREMELY HELPFUL.
    Thanks a lot in advance.

    Any help to increase the resolution quality of my DV file will be EXTREMELY HELPFUL.
    For faster editing iMovie 08 & 09 uses single-field processing. This means every other horizontal line of the video is thrown out, which reduces the sharpness of the footage. iMovie 06 uses all of the image, I think you will find it looks better.
    iMovie 06 and iDVD 09 is a terrific combination.

  • How do I play a video in full-screen mode on one screen of a dual-screen Windows 7 system without blanking out the other screen?

    How do I play a video in full-screen mode on one screen of a dual-screen Windows 7 system without blanking out the other screen?  Not losing the other screen would be useful as I would like to, for example, monitor my emails whilst watching a video or to work on a project whilst watching an instructional video.
    Note : Resizing a window to fill the screen is not acceptable as it still leaves unsightly borders.

    If you add music videos to Up Next playlist, then go to look at the album cover playing screen, then go to add another song from different playlist, you no longer can see Up Next, just go to full screen mode button. Using remote app iPhone 5 to play out of iTunes. It looks like it works fine for regular music, but for music videos you can't see your up next unless you go back on the computer to change once you've left the screen. When using the remote app, you shouldn't need to go to iTunes on the PC to view or edit Up Next already added. See first image, you can hit upper right and get back to Up Next (second image). Third image is music video, where you can't get back to Up Next, just swap between full screen and not. I hoped 3.0.1 would have the answer, no luck!

    wow, very nice review Makes me want to get a vision for myself.

    I would love that feature. I can't stand useing my computer with a single wall paper anymore (I have 500 anime pics that i rotate between every 2 mins ) If you could make the vision rotate background every x minutes or every time the player is turned on, it would be totally amazeningly sweet!!!! (i might have to go out and buy one then :P)
    I just hope that creative has better firmware support with the vision than they have had with the touch.
    Once again, great review

  • The Firefox window pops up on a regular interval when any other program is being used, even when a film is playing in full screen mode from Firefox.

    The Firefox window pops up on a regular interval (I think every 5 or 10 min) when any other program is being used, even when a film is playing in full screen mode from Firefox. It does not happen if Firefox is not running (i.e. it does not start by itself). The OS is Windows 7 SP1 and this begun after installing the Firefox update 5.0.1.

  • ITunes music videos playing small on full screen mode

    Hi,
    When I select full screen to play a music video in iTunes it doesn't play full screen but its seems about half the size it should be. Please could someone tell me how to get it back to playing in full screen mode again?
    Thank you,
    Amy

    Hello Amy, welcome to the Apple forums.
    Where did you get the video from?
    Drag your video from iTunes, on to the Desktop to copy it.
    Right click on the video icon and choose "Get Info".
    A long window will open on your desktop. Look in the section "More Info:" then, directly underneath, "Dimensions" there will be some numbers there such as 720x480. Post the numbers you are seeing, here. It would also be helpful to know which computer and monitor you are using.

  • Is it possible to set a finder window to full screen mode,..

    ... like mail, itunes and other apps? and if not, why not?
    I have to say it took me a bit to get used to Lion, I began complaining all day until I decided to take some time to learn it, and now I like it very much, I see the advantages over 10.6.
    But still, there are some things I don't know about, and the window of opportunity to take time to learn more has closed. And I don't know when it'll open again.
    So, that's why I have joined the community, because now I'm trying to use everthing on full-screen mode, and as I was setting my desktops to work on a project in which I will be needing a lot of finder windows open with a lot of items each, I instantly asked myself:
    Is it possible to set the finder windows to full screen? because I don't see any buttons.
    Thanks 4 Your Time
    R.D.B.

    Thanks Don Archibald,
    Yeah, that's what I'm doing at the moment. But I thought it would be nice to have the little full screen button just to press it so.
    Besides, I'm still figuring out the finder windows' behaviour. I discovered that if you open a folder from a window that has the toolbar, the new folder would also open with a toolbar, even if you already had it set it up with just the status bar.
    And one thing that still enervates me is that if you have a window with two items, and you press the green button to fit the borders up tight, instead of leavin' the 2 items in a horizontal arrangement, it moves one to the bottom and puts a slider. Arrgh.
    Another thing I haven't understood is why one folder I have on the dock sometimes opens with a column layout instead of the icon layout I have arranged for it before. Totally random 4 now, can't find the why.
    Anyway... I'm going to order some lapel pins about 2 flags I designed for two embassies. Anyone know a good place for doing that?

    Do you have any Mail plug-ins? In particular, do you

    This doesn’t make sense to me. You cannot tell a rule
    to move messages to a smart mailbox, only to a normal
    mailbox. Each smart mailbox has its own set of
    conditions that messages must satisfy in order for
    them to appear there.
    OK. I misstated this. I have a number of Smart Mailboxes with their specific rules in which to route certain topics to specify mailboxes. I am trying to not have to create each Smart Mailbox on each computer.
    The problem is that when I am on the road I add contacts, bookmarks, keychain items, contacts into my laptop and vice versa when home. I would just like to have those Sync on both computers. Seems like it should be easy, but it hasn't been.
    I really don't think I have anything "non-standard." A few Smart Mailboxes, a couple of signatures, thats pretty much it.
    Note: For those not
    familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers
    to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any
    of the folders referred to in this post by copying
    the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder
    in the Finder, and pasting the folder path
    there.
