Mute music when videos play in iPhoto

I have a presentation that combines photos and a few videos in iPhoto. I am using music form my itunes library. How can I get the music to stop playing or mute when the videos play in iPhoto (so we can hear the sounds from the imported video) then start or unmute the itunes music when iPhoto is back to showing photos? Does that make sense?
Pardon my ignorance. Thank you!!
jay

That's not a feature in iPhoto. iDVD has such a feature but doesn't work very well at all. You might be able to create the slideshow in iMovie and mute the added music during the video clips. I don't use the latest version of iPhoto so can't help there. It's easy if you use the older iMovie 6 HD version.

Slideshow Music doesn't play in iPhoto 9.5 and Mavericks 10.9

After ugrading to Mavericks 10.9 and then to iPhoto 9.5, music from playlists in my iTunes 11.1.2 Library doesn't play in iPhoto slideshows. Music shows up in the iPhoto Slideshow Music menu OK, but won't play there or in slideshows themselves. Both worked fine in OSX 10.8.5 and iPhoto 9.4.3.
Oddly enough, the built-in Sample Music and Theme Music from the iPhoto Slideshow menu DO work!
Anyone else having this problem? Any fixes. Am holding off upgrading my other computers, since I do a lot with slideshows, and this is a big problem for me.

After yesterday's OSX update to 10.9 and the subsequent iPhoto 9.5 update to 9.5 I also have the same problem:
Music for old existing slide shows from iTunes can't be played back.
When changing the setting for the slide show length to be set by the playback time of the music, iPhoto crashes.
When trying to add iTunes music to a slide show the preview function does not work.
iTunes songs can be added to a slide show. When playing it back the songs will however not play.
To rule out an issue with my iPhoto picture library I did the following - sadly still yielding the same erroneous behavior:
Created new iPhoto library.
Imported 10 picutes.
Created a new slide show with said pictures.
Tried to add iTunes music: preview does not work and added song don't play when slide show is played back.

How do you stop music while video plays???

Ok...so here's the deal. I'm making a movie that is a combination of pictures and videos. It's basically like a slideshow type thing, but now I'm adding video to it. I've already put all the pictures and transitions and music that goes along with that, but now I'm trying to add my videos in between some of the pictures. I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to stop (like completely stop/cut the music clip) while the video is playing, then resume the music at the end of the video at the point where it was stopped before. Does that make sense? I don't want to simply lower the volume of the music...I want to completely stop it so you can hear the audio of the new video. I have tried trimming the audio, but I haven't figured out how to get it to do what I want. So basically, how can you stop music while a video plays and then resume that same music at the end of the video from the point where it was cut?

So i think you have clips with their own audio that you want the added music track silenced during those clips alone. Click on the clip in question, go to inspector, audio, "Ducking" and X that box "reduce volume of other tracks" and pull it to 0%. i think that will do it

[zen x-fi2] issue with transflash music or video playing

Hi All,
i've a xfi-2 player and a 6gb transflash memory.
Every time I try to access music or videos in my microsd section i get this message:
"Ready to build library, This may take a few minutes. Proceed?"
I think that this message should appear only the first time or if i add/remove something. Instead All the times I access music or videos on memory i must wait about 2 minutes before i can play because it must build library, is it normal?
Another question, is it possible on playing mode keep "play buttons" on top, without they automatically hide?It's not a great feature I think.
thanks
Bye

help! I really want the sample pictures, videos und audio back! :mansad:
PLEASE .. one-klick or mail ..:smileyvery-happy:

Nokia 8800 Sirocco shuts down when video plays

I have the Sirocco and when i play videos the phone just reboots itself? It can play for a bit but the sound is **bleep**y? The same video will work perfectly in any other old cheap phone. If anyone knows how i can sought this out please let me know? Thanks in advance :-)

I have tried 3 different Siroccos and they are all like this.
There is 'free play' before the key movement. Its very annoying especially on keys near the bottom of the keyboard.
I don't think its repairable, its just a bad design. The old 8800 keypad was better in this respect.

No audio when video plays on iPOd

I had the 60GB iPod and I used to put videos on it. It was fine. Then I got the 80GB and reformatted my computer. Now the videos playing do not have audio. When I click on the 'properties' tab the format of the video is unknown. OK, i am aware that not all formats are supported, but c'mon I have like 10 videos and I'm sure they would work fine. So what am I doing, if anything, wrong? Thanks.

Is there any way to definitely tell when video play starts?

I find that when you have a video element with a buffer - the PlayTrait.playState says playing while the video is buffering? Is there any way to have or know when the play actually does start?

Hi,
You could listen for BUFFER_FULL event. There are very rare cases when the video starts playing and the player never gets to a BUFFER_FULL, though we have not met one in normal use.
The measurement values actually reflect close enough the start of the playback.
Using the PLAYING event will not help you so much, since it will be triggered when the video starts to load.

Music widget wont play music when touch 'play' button

iPhone 6 with iOS8.1，
I have tried reboot didn't work , only when I play music in music app, the music widget can work。

not sure if this will help you guys, but it solved my issues. my itunes 9 and everything else that was negatively effected, is now working great.
i read somewhere (sorry i dont have a link) about how to change your network settings. basically i opened op airport utility, found the time capsule (its both my router and HD), clicked manual setup, clicked wireless. once in this menu, i did two things. im not sure which one was the solution, but i did both since they fit my needs better.
one thing i did was changed my "radio mode" from "802.11n compatible (802.11g/b compatible)" to "802.11n only (5GHz)". the second thing i did from the same wirless menu, was click the wireless options button, i changed multicast rate from 6 Mbps to 24 Mbps.
both of the changes resulted in everything working fine. i can stream all my data to apple tv and play movie files without all the problems that i and many others are experiencing.
like i said, im not sure if this will help you guys, but it helped me. so give it a shot if you dont see a diffference than revert back to whatever your original setting were. oh and please note, if your network is set to 802.11n ONLY, things that arent n compatible (like my iphone) wont see the network. so this solution my not work for everyone, but i have two wireless networks so its fine.
good luck everyone

How to change music when watching pics from iphoto

how do u change that awful elevator music in front row when you want to watch pictures ?

WoW, I don't think I've ever seen SOOO many topics posted for the same issue.
After filtering through many messages, I decided to post here.
When I do what you suggested; select play from within iPhoto, select the music playlist I want, and click "Save Settings," and then go into FrontRow and run the iPhoto slideshow, everything works fine. The problem is, the settings don't stick. The next time I go back into FrontRow and run the slideshow, it reverts back to the original FrontRow slideshow settings. I have to repeat the above sequence from within iPhoto EVERYtime I want to run the slideshow from FrontRow.
So, does anyone know how to keep the settings???

Pause or mute music when headphones disconnect

Would there be any way to be able to pause or mute the music player when the headphones accidentally disconnect ?, similar to how an iPod/iPhone would.
I own a E71 but that should not make a difference, i have used other nokia devices before, and was not able to get that setting
Thanks,
Neil

I'd like to see this one, I work in a quiet office but listen to music off my 5800 via bluetooth headphones. Occasionally I walk away from phone with my headset slung round me neck forgetting about it. The phone loses the connection, so automatically switches to blaring the music out the speakers! I then have to charge back to my desk, unlock the phone and hurriedly pause the music.
Frankly there is no situation where I want music to play out of the speakers, I'm not a teenager walking down the street!

White Screen when Video Plays

I am using Premiere Elements 9 software. When i add clips to the timeline and hit play, the video does not play in playback screen, instead i just get a white screen. Once i hit the puase button, the picture of the frame the playerhead is on goes back onto the screeen, but as soon as i hit the play button, the screen turns white again. I have updated my graphics card drivers and the prject settings are correct. What is causeing the issue?
This is what i get when i hit the play button:

Thank you for that info. You have got a pretty recent (did not check, but that might be the latest) video driver. I sort of expected to see a date about 6 - 8 mos. ago. If there IS a newer driver, I would definitely try that. Also, as over the years, both nVidia and ATI/AMD have issued drivers, that were just bad with Adobe programs, I keep older (known good) drivers on my HDD, just in case I have to roll-back.
Do you have a Dell, HP, Lenovo or Toshiba computer? The reason that I ask is that those companies very often re-wrap the nVidia (and ATI/AMD) drivers, to work with their tweaked hardware.
With the latest video driver, and that Canon footage, if you have the proper Project Preset, things should edit fine. The smoothness of editing/playback will be heavily dependent on your CPU's speed, but should not affect the display.
Good luck,

Ipod wont play music when songs played stays at 0 no sound

no music will play on ipod

Hey this has happened to me a couple of times to but
my works if you leave it alone for awhile ( maybe i
just hit it in the right spot). However before this
happened for 3 weeks or so my ipod would randomely
stop playing if it is on hold. i think this is
related to a malfunction in teh feature were if you
take out the headpohones it stops playing. Did your
wife experience similar problems?
Recently my ipod has a near inaudible volume. it's up
all the way, hte max volume is up all way, and when i
adjust max volume the volume comes back but as soon
as i exit out of the adjustment it becomes quiet
again.
My ipod is working now just from fiddlings and
leaving it alone (temperature effect it?)
If your wife experienced any similar problems let me
know so i can send it in before it progresses to be
worse.
It works now but for how long? thanks
No.. leaving it alone doesn't seem to help. It's really kind of weird, it's like everything works except playback via headphones. I can actually play songs that are store on the ipod when connected to iTunes (i.e., on my computer). Just that headphones don't seem to work.
Sigh. Thanks for the post though.

Why can't I listen music when i play games on ipad 3

I used to play games while listening to music on my old ipad. With the new ipad, I can't. Is there anything I can do to be able to play games while playing music?

Evidently - and I am adminittedly speculating - some app will pause another audio source when they are started of have an audio stream of their own. In most cases, the built in Music App will continue playing when another app is closed, unless something like Netflix or the Podcast app is started. I"m guessing the mix of apps you are using works something like that. Very unlikley there is anything you can do to change it.
