Lightroom 5 slideshow music mac

When I select music, I select an m4a audio file for a slideshow, yet lightroom tells me this is not a valid music file. (Same message for various m4a audio files.)

Thanks for taking the time to respond. I don't think this was my problem. Besides the m4a audio file/slideshow problem, Lightroom wouldn't recognize any .mp4 files (which it had been doing). After consulting with Adobe support, I opened a New Catalog, and chose "Import from another catalog" (that other catalog being my old one). Both audio and video issues were fixed. Again, thanks for your help.

Slideshow music option "stuck"

Oddly, I'm unable to open folders or files from GarageBand demo songs or iTunes (library or playlists) when selecting music for a slideshow. All was working well until today after I added a new batch of photos. If I click on the iTunes library icon after selecting the "music" icon (in slideshow), no listing of song choices appear (as before, when all worked well). Instead the first song in the library just begins playing. Same with playlists or GarageBand demo songs. No song names are displayed -- only the first selection plays after a double click (and subsequent songs play as well in each list). The "find" function in slideshow music seems stuck too. Type in a song name from the library, hit return or the play arrow and I still get just the first song in the library list. I tried quitting iTunes, iPhoto, etc. as suggested in "help" but that didn't solve the problem. Nor did rebooting (twice) help. Am I overlooking something obvious, or are more sinister forces at work here? Suggestions welcomed!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. There's a little dimple in the horizontal bar below the window with the iTunes library icon. Click and drag down to reveal the playlists and individual tracks.

Lightroom cc slideshow sync issues

I created a lightroom cc slideshow which includes watermarks, text, music, pan and zoom, etc.
I have the slideshow synced with my account. I can see the slideshow synced on my ipad and web.
When viewing the synced slideshow on the web and my ipad, , none of the slideshow features are included. There are no watermarks, no text, no music, no pan and zoon etc. The slideshow looks exactly like any other collection.
Is there a way I can view the synced slideshow so that it plays as in LR CC on my computer?
Is this a feature limitation?
Thanks,
-Bob

You can only sync the photos in the collection, not a Slideshow, Book etc that you may have crated from same on your desktop. So, yes it's a feature limitation. If you want the slideshow to run on your iPad you'll need to first export it as a movie file from Lightroom then import on to the iPad.

Lightroom 5 on a Mac os 10.8.5 will not start. It fails to open. And it worked fine the other day.

Reh... Doesn't work on my 2012 Mac mini. A function key set in Sys Prefs worked in Leopard and Lion on my MB but I cannot get any key to work using SysPref Dictation & Speech. It is befuddling and now I have to go to Edit-Speech to turn on and turn off speech to selected text.
I have used Macs and Apple 2es since cave man days and Apple is becoming so befuddling I am wondering if there is even an advantage to it over Windows XP. I spent a lot on this little box, it looks good (the first one had to be exchanged as it wouldn't link to my keyboard ???) but Apple intuitive does no longer seem meaningful.
If speech to text no longer is accessible by short cuts using Fkeys, why bother to have it in Syst Prefs?
Apple is losing its way. The pleasure is gone and no one at Apple seems to care.

I want to install lightroom previously installed on a macbook on a new macbook. I get an error message when I try to use the same serial number. How can I install lightroom on my new mac?

Oliver,
Are you getting activation errors? As Ned stated , it is easier to troubleshoot if we have the specific type of error and error detail that you are getting.
Here is some help on activation if this is the issue:

Blurb Book in Lightroom 5 on my Mac disappeared after 3 days of work. Where can I find a backed up copy via Time Machine or anywhere else?

Welcome to the WD Community.
1) I assume I can just hook the unit up via USB to my Mac and use iPartiion to reformat the drives, assuming each of the 4T drives will be seen by iPartition as a separate drive. That much seems straighforward.
Yes, and in case you ipartition dont see the unit properly, you can use the disk utilities on your Mac and you will be able to reformat the unit to make it compatible with your system.
2) Is my next step to reinstall the WD software and how do I do that? I've downloaded the Drive Utilities and Securities install apps - I assume I just run these with the drive still connected and that's all I need to do?
Yes, just run the applications.
3) What about the firmware update for Mac - when should I run that??
Normally, firmware updates are released to fix any issues that you might encounter on the drive. the latest one was released on 9/24/2014 and it fixed an issue with the drive dropping off of the list after system wakes up from standby mode.
5) And what about the "My Book Live Duo Setup" app for Mac - is that for a completely different model? What's the difference between "My Book Live Duo" and "My Book Duo"? It's these little things that I find so confusing.
Those are different units. The MBL Duo is a NAS (Network attached system) and the My Book Duo is a DAS (Direct attached system)
6) Lastly, when I have all the software installed, is that when I follow the procedure described in the Knowledge Base article ID 5724, "How to install a My Book Live or My Book Live Duo on Windows (8, 7, Vista, or XP) or Mac OSX for the first time"? Or is that procedure only for "My Book Live Duo" but not for "My Book Duo"??
That procedure is for the network units, not for your drive.

Lightroom 5.5 for Mac Adjustment Brush not working

Hi all, since updating to Lightroom 5.5 for Mac Adjustment Brush has stopped working entirely. I can open the menu and it does display the brush within the menu. When dragging the tool into the image it changes to the mouse arrow which doesn't have any function. Any ideas? Thank you very much for your help. Chris

And- do you actually press or hold down the left-mouse button and drag the cursor on the image? as you would a paint brush. A 'Pin' will appear where you start the brush stroke.
And- Is it possible that you have the switch at the base of the brush panel sliders turned off ? (The toggle switch on the same line as "Reset" and "Close")
Pressing "O" only turns the overlay mask on/off to give a visual indication 'Where' you have applied the brush.
Pressing "SHIFT+O" changes the colour of the MASK overlay- Red, Green, Grey, Clear
"O" does not affect any editing of the image.

The PDF file and slideshow view corrupted using iPhoto. Macbook air only get corrupted slideshow and Mac Mini both slideshow and PDF file is corrupted.

The PDF file and slideshow view corrupted using iPhoto. Macbook air only get corrupted slideshow and Mac Mini both slideshow and PDF file is corrupted.

Saving as a PDF file for some users have been a problem. If you boot into Safe Mode and run iPhoto you can create undamaged PDF files. We don't know why the problem but this is a workaround.
This problem prevents many from ordering books, calendars and cards since iPhoto creates PDF file of them for uploading and printing. Booting into Safe Mode lets them successfully order those items.

Just download and install 5.7.1. Don't worry about earlier versions.
You'll need to enter your serial number to license the software.

Front Row Slideshow Music Problem

Hello:
I have been unable to change the Photo Slideshow music in Front Row. I go into iPhoto, select SlideShow and select my music, but it does not seem to save it to Front Row. I've even tried making my selections as "default" but it doesn't work.
I've tried repairing permissions on my disk, and there do seem to be problems with Front Row. However, no matter how many times I repair, the permissions still persist. Log file below
Can anyone offer any tips to a newbie (recently switched from a PC.)
Thanks,
Dan

Thanks; that's a relief, though the permissions that are referenced in the thread you pointed out (that can be safely ignored) seem to me mostly related to iPhoto Access and not Front Row (I seem to have both Front Row and iPhoto permission problems.)
So, can anyone offer any suggestions on how to change my music in Front Row's Slide Show?

IPhoto 5 slideshow music still available after upgrade to iPhoto6?

I've just upgraded to iPhoto6 and see that the default slideshow music has changed. I'd still like to use the iPhoto5 default music - does anyone know if this should still be available?

iLife 6 installs a new bunch of sounds, tunes, Garageband loops, etc. as well as the older ones. I believe you will be very impressed with the assortment that Apple provides (/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple/iLife Sound Effects Folder). I know I was!

Lightroom reinstallation on different mac with same serial number.

im using lightroom on my mac air.
and im planning to buy a mac pro soon.
in that case, is it possible to use lightroom on my new mac pro with the same serial numbers that im using now on mac air?
(im not going to use lightroom on mac air)

Adobe allows two installations of Lightroom on different computers with the proviso that only one can be used at any one time. (There is no on-line activation/de-activation process, only your honesty.)
Just install on the new mac pro with the same serial number.
Note: If the Mac Air has an "update" version installed (for example -you upgraded from LR3 to LR5) then you will need both Serial Numbers for LR3 & the LR5-update, to install on the new Mac pro.
