Music with slideshow Apple TV2

When using airplay, is there a way to have more than one song play with a slideshow. From my iphone I select the one song and it recycles. Can I get a playlist to accompany my slideshow?
Thanks,
GJH

Not so far as I'm aware unfortunately.

Problem playing selected music with slideshow

Hi
I am having trouble playing music with slideshows since updating to iphoto 6. I can see all my playlists and I am able to select the playlist I want and this will play in the 'play music during slideshow' window. However, when I play the slideshow I receive an error message telling me that 'the music you have selected can't be found or can't be opened'.
This has only been a problem since updating and it doesn't matter what playlist I choose - they will all play in both iTunes and the selection screen for the slideshpw but not actually with the slideshow (the play music with slideshow box is ticked).
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I am about to throw my mac out the window.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. What version of Quicktime are you running? You should be at 7.1.5. If not update to it and give it another try.
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.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Is there anyway to share music with different apple accounts??

Is there anyway possible to share music with different apple acounts??

Yes. If you are on the same network, go to Edit > Preferences > Sharing, and click "Share Entire Library."

I am losing music with slideshows in iPhoto.

After a recent automatic update (I think to the operating system), the iPhoto program began losing all music associated with slideshows, seemingly whenever the power was completely shut down. I am using iPhoto 11, version 9.4.3. After the power has been shut down, the music files previously associated with the slide shows are no longer associated. I can see my iTunes library in the iPhoto program, but it will not let me add music, and gives me an error message something to the effect of, "...cannot be added because the original file cannot be located." If I go into iTunes and create a new playlist, I can then again add music to the slide shows.
I did not have this problem prior to the recent updates. Is there a way to maintain the link between the iPhoto slide show and the music even if the power is shut down? It seemed to be able to do this prior to the recent updates.
Is there a way to save the entire slideshow to a file or DVD, so I can simply play it from a DVD or re-load it?
This seems to be an issue with the recent updates required by Apple.
Thanks.

1. As a former and current PC user, I have had several problems because I failed to update PC programs as recommended (security patches in Adobe Flash Player, etc.). I assumed Apple was the same way; the programs would generally work better and be more secure if I installed the recommended updates that periodically arrived from Apple. Perhaps I am mistaken and you could offer some better suggestions.
2. I am using iPhoto '11, version 9.4.3. It may not be the version I was using when I initially encountered the problem a few days ago. When it happened, I checked the Ap store for recommended updates, and there was one for iPhoto, so I updated to see if that would fix the problem. It does not seem to have fixed it. I purchased this iMac as my first Apple system nearly two years ago, and have been using the software that came installed on it, altered only (as far as I know) by the recommended updates. I generally really like it. I am using Mac OS X version 10.7.5. I don't know how to check to see if the iPhoto version is compatible with the OS X version
3. The exact error message is, "The song "____" could not be used because the original file could not be located."
I have some slide shows on the iMac that we put to music out of iTunes and play on the iMac. As long as the computer is put to sleep, and not shut down, the link to the music remains. If the computer gets shut down, the iPhoto loses the link to music files. When I open iPhoto, the slide show is there, but the music does not play with the photos. When I open the music settings, I can open and see my iTunes library, but when I drag songs into the field for the slide show, it will not allow the songs to remain in the field. I then double click again on the song I just tried to add to the slide show, and the error message above appears.
I went to the support page, and it suggested that I close iPhoto, go into iTunes, copy the iTunes Music Library.xml file to the desktop, go back into iTunes, create a new playlist, then open iPhoto and try again. Going through this process seems to allow me to again add iTunes songs to the slideshow. I just lose everything again whenever the power shuts down. I thought saving the slideshow onto a DVD might work, but I have not figured out how to do that yet. Is that a reasonable solution? I could potentially save them to a DVD, flash drive, or the back-up Airport disk. It appeared in the support community that people had difficulty with saving the format when the slideshow was saved directly from iPhoto, but that it worked better when first transferred to the video program (iMovie?). I have never used the video program and don't know if I even have it. I welcome any suggestions you may have.
4. I have not noticed any other strange things with iPhoto.
Thanks for your help,
B

HT3819 How can I share my music with another apple ID device

Can I share the music on my iPad with another iPad, the other iPad has a different Apple ID

The correct answer to your question is No - you cannot "share" Music with another device using a different Apple ID. Can you make it work - yes you can.
You do not want to sign into the other Apple ID and download the purchased music because you will lock yourself out of your own Apple ID for 90 days. Apple does this in order to discourage users from "sharing" purchased content that they did not buy themselves.
Whatever you decide to do, just don't download the music from the purchased tab in iTunes, because you don't want to lock yourself out of your own ID for 90 days.

Homesharing not working with my Apple TV2

I can't get homesharing to work. I type in my username and PW in iTune, I authorized my computer, but then Apple TV2 keeps telling me I need to turn on Homesharing on my computer? What's the deal?

After much groaning I think I have finally figured this out. My Apple TV worked fine for more than a year, then after an update it kept losing home sharing. I finaly noticed that this coincided with my computer display going to sleep. So after some investigation I changed my energy saver settings to NOT put the hard disk to sleep whenever possible. That seems to have taken care of it. I don't know why Apple couldn't figure this out.

Problem streaming music with New Apple TV- Anyone else?

I am new to Apple TV. I have been using a Sony BDP580 (DLNA) to stream my FLAC digital music via a wired LAN. It works flawlessly. I just got the new Apple TV for streaming. I set it up and home shared with my Itunes library containing AIFF digital music via same wired LAN. It sees everything but each time I start a song, it plays for about 35 seconds and then starts studdering and hestitates, finally stopping altogether and displays an error message saying, "An error occurred loading this content. Try again later." This happens everytime, with any song I select.
I assumed this was a buffering problem, so I tried same songs again but this time paused them immediately after starting the song. If I paused for 15-20 seconds, I got about 2.5-3 minutes of music before it did it's studdering thing and stopped altogether. If I paused for 90 seconds or so, I could get thru an entire 10 minute song. Seems to confirm a buffering problem.
I have not tried streaming MP3's yet but that is not my intention.
I realize that the software is new but this is basically unuseable as it currently functions. I am considering trying to return the the Apple TV. Are there similiar kinds of problems when new Apple TV software is released? If so, is Apple quick with fixes and updates?
By the way, I also got a new IPAD and love it.

I have an older PC with Windows XP Professional on it. I updated to the latest iTunes and I am able to access the photos, etc. on it. However, my Windows 7 PC still does work (since last Apple TV update). Apple TV does not recognize that Home Sharing is turned here. The latter PC has all my current photos on it which I would like share with others on my Apple TV. A fix would be appreciated.

What can I actually do with the Apple TV2 in the UK?

Sounds like a silly question, but im quite serious!
I know that the services differ from country to country, but im just wondering what the apple TV can do by its self.
I'm guessing that we CANT watch NetFlix as they havent launched in the UK?
We CAN watch Youtube and Vimo?
Can we stream content directly from Apples servers (ie, if I rent a movie, do I have to download it onto my mac first?)
what about TV shows?
Again, sorry for sounding a little silly, but I just want to know
Thanks for all your help

Hi Neil.
Winston, Chenks and I are all from UK and have used AppleTVs for many years - I always found it strange that UK posters were more prolific than US posters here, but I think that may have been down to better availability of streaming services in US generally until recently compared to UK and AppleTv may have had a niche market here - may be wrong.
AppleTv1 was originally an 'iTunes extender' for compatible media (see specs).
You could sync media from iTunes to it to play with computer off or stream additional media from itunes when computer was on.
Later SD/HD Rentals and TV/Movie/Music/Music Video purchases came to AppleTV1, syncing back to iTunes.
It allowed access to mobileMe, Flickr, youtube media, podcasts and internet radio.
AppleTV 1 had some benefits over 2 but was also underpowered hardware wise compared to the newer unit (which some would argue is still the case due to lack of 1080p support).
AppleTV2 has been repositioned less as a vehicle to play itunes content, but more of an online rental device, with some internet services supported and in my view a strong emphasis as an accessory for iPhones/iPad/iPod tocuhes using Airplay.
You can still play compatible content from iTunes (again see specs on Apple's pages).
Netflix not available in UK but apparently Netflix coming in next 12 months - no idea if AppleTV will support.
There are some premium subscription US sports intrenet feeds - personally I have no interest, some are US only, some are worldwide with a valid subscription.
YouTube still available, Vimeo, Flickr and MobileMe remain as do Apple's Radio Stations and Podcasts.
US had Movie and Tv Rentals we only had Movie rentals. US dropped the TV Rentals.
US it seems can purchase content not just rent. We can't currently in UK outside of iTunes.
Airplay from an iDevice (newer models on the whole) will allow apps enabled for Airplay to stream the display to AppleTV. iPad2 and iPhone 4S also support video mirroring on TV. Macs currently don't support mirroring but do support iTunes Airplay.
So Netflix - not currently.
YouTube/Vimeo - yes.
Stream content from Apple - yes - if you have a slow (<6 Mbps) connection HD wil have to prebuffer for minutes to hours depending on speed of connection (4 Mbps takes 30-40 mins for movie to prebuffer). If you have a slow connection you can rent in SD near instantly if you have 2.5 Mbps or so. You can also rent in iTunes and play on AppleTV but choice is different (less HD).
TV Shows - no rentals anymore anywhere but purchased shows in itunes can be streamed over LAN.
Also iCloud support will emerge eg Photostream and who knows what else in the future (US ahead of us with streaming content from Apple's servers of purchases previously made and 'available').

Music with slideshow continuously repeats

I have set up a slideshow on my iPod classic. The pictures play as expected. However, the music I have assigned to this slideshow does not stop when the pictures have finished but repeats over and over until I manually press stop. How can I get the music to stop after once playing? Thank you.

Not so far as I'm aware unfortunately.

Repurchace music with different Apple ID

Okay, it goes like this: when I was a child, I put a bunch of music in my iTunes library that my parents purchased for me. Now that I'm no longer a child, I'm considering repurchasing the songs under my own Apple ID. I'd be willing to pay for them and have my own copies, I'm just wondering if there's an easy way to just repurchase the songs that are already there and put them under a different account. Or do I have to go and manually delete and repurchase all the songs? Thanks!

Oh, I can and do. It's just we have a lot of computers and keep running out of authorizations, I'm getting older, and I feel like it would be appropriate to buy my own music at some point rather than continue to leech off my parents.

Music with slideshows exported from Lightroom

The little Adobe Album 2.0 application I have exports pdf slideshows with sound, but Lightroom 1.3 does not.
Will this feature be added to Lightroom in the near future?
