Photo Album Playing?

If I have photo's on my nano and set the preferences to slide show them while playing a song is it supose to do just that? Anyways that's the setting that I have it on and the slide show is not doing anything while the music is playing. "The Now Playing" option is what I have it set for to the slideshow

I don't believe that is possible. It may be best to have those videos stored in iTunes if you wish to home-share/airplay them.

Photo album: Play button not functioning on slide show

In order to learn this album construction, I've begun by just copying the files from the demo (http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/demos/gallery_pe/dynamic/index.html), renaming the paths and throwing in some new images. BUT, the Play button doesn't work. It doesn't work on the demo either.
Is there a js function call that I'm missing? If so, where would the call and function be placed?
Here's my sample: http://www.lumina-media.com/gallerytest/wjgallery.html
All js, xml and css files are the same as on the demo (with exception of paths to images and thumbs).
Thanks in advance for any help.
Nick

The play button works fine on your app, as well on the Spry demo.

Photo Album Won't Play on Internet

CS4 created a photo album, it plays fine in my browser from my hard drive, from our local server and from a memory stick. I have uploaded the entire site to our internet server but the index.html file is solid black and doesn't run the album. Why?? Help.

A link to the site might help to diagnose the issue.

Play photo album in front row

Hi,
I am having trouble getting my photo albums to play via front row. I have numerous albums but when i go into them in front row, it just shows up random photos from the album and roll they came from, with none of the album pages showing. The photo roll and the name of the albums is the same ie: roll called sweden, album called sweden, would that be causing a problem, ie: iphoto unsure of which photos to show? They play fine in iphoto, with all of the album pages showing, but not in front row.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am getting a little frusterated!!
Thanks,
Mel

Yes, Front Row handles DVDs fine. If Front Row is already open, a new section called DVDs appears after the Mac reads and mounts the disc. If you insert the DVD and let it be read and mounted first the new DVD section will be there when you open Front Row.

XML Photo Album to play automatically

Hi,
I've come across a great tutorial and source files for the
xml photo album:
http://www.xmlphotoalbum.com/
How would I implement the slideshow to play automatically and
continuously? Also, adding some spacing in between the thumbnails
would be nice as well.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

Are you sending an album or a slideshow? I don't think music can be assigned to an album.
Have you tried asking this question in the iPhoto forum (assuming it's an iPhoto question) or the AppleTV forum (if it's more a question about the AppleTV?).
Here's a link to the iPhoto forum:

How do I create photo album folders or files ? As it stands, ihave some 500 pics saved but only want to play some of them for a slideshow presentation?

How do I create file folders or photo albums to save photos in specific designated area for subsequent playback as a slideshow. As it stands, I have approx 500 photos in new I Pad 2, however need to only play about 30 in a slideshow. Thank you

For the Photos app you need to put the photos into different folders on your computer and then sync those folders to the iPad - you need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad in one go, as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad. There are third-party apps that you can copy photos to on the iPad which I think might allow you to do slideshows, but I havn't used any of them.
With iOS 5 in the Autumn you will (assuming that it makes it to the final release) be able to (from http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/features.html#photos) :
Even organize your photos in albums — right on your device.

IPhone resets playing music and viewing Photo Album

My iPhone has started reseting to the main menu and the applications (photo album and iPod) at random when both are active. I hava also had several resets, I call them that because I don't know what the system is doing but the application simply quits and the phone goes back to the top menu. I have heard there is a problem with the latest version of the system so is there anything I can do to stablize the situation? The phone is working as it should be but the applications are not predictable.
Thanks for your responses in advanced.

The behavior you're describing where the application quits and you are taken back to the home screen is called "crashing".
The first thing you can try is resetting your iPhone. Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down until the Apple logo shows on the screen (about 6-8 seconds), then release the buttons.
If that does not help, you should restore your iPhone. Connect your phone to iTunes, let it sync, and then click restore. After your iPhone software is reloaded, you will be able to restore all your data from your last sync. You will have to re-enter some passwords, such as your voicemail password, wi-fi network passwords, and email account passwords.
If you continue to get crashes despite these measures, I recommend getting your iPhone serviced either by taking it to the Apple store or by calling 1-800-MY-iPHONE.

HT201317 I have a MobileMe account and have shared many MobileMe Galleries. MobileMe Galleries are going away in June. How can I share a photo album with others using iCloud?

I have a MobileMe account and have shared many MobileMe Galleries. MobileMe Galleries are going away in June. How can I share a photo album with others using iCloud?

The new ios version of iPhoto allows sharing. Here's a blurb from Apple's web site:
There’s the old way of creating photo galleries, then there’s the iPhoto way. Select a group of photos and iPhoto automatically flows them into a beautiful journal that’s fun to personalize and share online. Touch a photo to make it bigger or smaller. Or drag it to a different spot on the screen. iPhoto adjusts the page around whatever you’re doing, so your journal always looks great. You can even add captions, maps, dates, and weather — giving family and friends the big picture at a glance.
More things you can do:
With iPhoto, there’s more than one way to share a photo. Post pictures directly to Facebook, Flickr, or Twitter. Play an impromptu slideshow on your iPad or iPhone. Or stream photos to your HDTV to give your big moments room to shine.
I have not used ios version of iPhoto to share "journals" and I'm not sure this is part of iCloud or not. You'll have to do a google search on "ios iphoto" and read up of this journal thing. As far as I know, this is the only way of sharing photos. I'm not sure whether other friends use a browser to view these journals or whether they need something special. Any way - search around to find answers.

Photo album questions

Hi, I have put several hours into trying to solve these
problems myself, but I am stuck. The page in question is:
http://www.georgeglazer.com/maps/newyorkmaps/hydeli/hydeliinv.html
1. Detailregion area does not display when page opens. It's
just a skinny gray box on the right. Once you click a thumbnail,
however, it displays fine, and will display all the images as you
click on them. Thinking maybe the non-working slide show buttons
were the problem, I tried replacing the <div id="controls">
area with the identical one from another page I have that works
just fine:
Why does THIS work:
http://www.georgeglazer.com/prints/aanda/fashion/kuhninv/kuhninv.html
BUT NOT THIS:
http://www.georgeglazer.com/maps/newyorkmaps/hydeli/hydeliinvquicktest.html
I've made several pages like hydeliinvquicktest.html that all
function properly, so I'm baffled.
2. How do I get a simple slide show going?
The Spry Photo Album Demo shows how powerful Spry can be, but
I don't need all that complexity, and I'm having trouble narrowing
it down to what I need -- no multiple databases, no growing and
shrinking thumbnails. All I want is to be able to put a bunch of
images and one XML dataset in a folder and have the ability to have
people click on "Previous," "Next," or "Play/Pause" in addition to
being able to click on a specific image.
One of the problems with the demo for me is the dataset names
used in the demo get confusing -- I'm having trouble following the
distinction between and relationship between when you use
dsGallery, dsGalleries, dsPhotos, and photo, not to mention, why it
is ultimately unnecessary to make any reference to "china" and and
the other folder names. And since I know next to nothing about
Javascript, I can't figure out what substitutions to make to the
gallery.js code, which is designed to work with these multiple
databases, and also can't figure out which pieces I need and
whether the pieces I don't need would get in the way if I left them
in the js doc or if everything extraneous has to be eliminated.
3. One of the problems with implementing more Spry pages is
the tedious work involved to make a little thumbnail for every
single image in a set, and then make sure they're all exactly the
same size, which is what I've done so far. I have figured out what
to do when the main image size varies, and Spry handles that well.
But here are my problems:
a. What if the thumbnails vary in size? For instance, this
hydeliinv.html page has four maps that are part of a set, but are
all different proportions, and four details I'd like to show that
represent what they look like close up, all of which are in
different proportions as well.
b. And can I have Spry call on the same image file and
display that full size for the main image, and reduced for the
thumbnail?
You'll see right now in
http://www.georgeglazer.com/maps/newyorkmaps/hydeli/hydeliinv.html
I've set the height and width in the spry: repeat tag for the
thumbnails to 100px. I tried just setting the height to that, and
width to auto; I tried just setting the height to that, and
omitting the width. In both cases, no thumbnails display at all. I
see in the Spry Photo Album Demo the use of "path" designations in
photos.xml. Could I do something with an XML doc that looks like
this to address both (a) and (b)?:
<hydeli>
<inv_item id="1">
<title>First Map</title>
<dimensions1>36.5 x 34 inches</dimensions1>
<dimensions2>37.5 x 36.25 inches</dimensions2>
<photo
path="hydeli1.jpg" width="390" height="400"
thumbpath="hydeli1.jpg" thumbwidth="98"
thumbheight="100">
</photo>
</inv_item>
<inv_item id="2">
<title>Second Map</title>
<dimensions1>36.5 x 34 inches</dimensions1>
<dimensions2>37.5 x 36.25 inches</dimensions2>
<photo
path="hydeli2.jpg" width="379" height="400"
thumbpath="hydeli2.jpg" thumbwidth="95"
thumbheight="100">
</photo>
</inv_item>
</hydeli>
I tried to figure this out, too, but to no avail.
Thanks for any help you can give me!

I understand the challenge and worked out some answers that
support our photo gallery for the ski club. I wanted something
simple that would support a gallery of up to 100 pictures reliably.
Also, I wanted it to extract information from the image metadata
such as names or descriptions.
The image processing is done using photoshop macros which
create the appropriate sized image and thumbnail.
After trial and error I realized current CSS technology is
NOT capable of vast quantities of demands from more than 20
thumbnails. That's when I settled on hard formatting the thumbnails
png files with a nice black border. The thumbnails load up quite
nicely with NO style formatting. I used PNG files for the
transparency support.
The XML data is created using a program I wrote to parse the
metadata from the image files. Now that all the photoshop macros
and the XML parser is written, I can load up a large gallery in
less than thirty minutes. (Not including photo editing.)
Hope this helps.

Error message when I try to publish an iWeb photo album with audio to Mobileme:

I get the following error message when trying to publish a photo album with audio from iWeb to Mobileme. I've checked my account and I have plenty of available space on Mobileme and have logged in there.
An error occurred while publishing file “/private/var/folders/qg/qg-Qwo-82RWdDU+8ZNhusU+++TI/TemporaryItems/com.apple.i Web_9121_TEMP_344183369_3/sites/Site/Grand_Canyon_11_Slideshow_part_1_2_files/or iginal_2.jpg”. Try publishing again later.
Is there a problem with my photos or other content (I've added some songs to play in the slideshow)
Dan H.

First see if you can publish your site to a folder on your hard drive. You can select the folder by clicking on the site's folder in iWeb and using the Publish To: menu.
If that's successful try the following:
delete the iWeb preference files, com.apple.iWeb.plist and com.apple.iWeb.plist.lockfile, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
Click to view full size
launch iWeb and try again.

Photo Album buttons not working

Hi, I created a photo album in Photoshop. This is how it
views after it's created:
http://oxford2.readyhosting.com/test/gallery/test.html
When I put the file into my template the pause/play buttons
aren't displaying.
http://oxford2.readyhosting.com/test/gallery/index2.htm
I can't figure out why. I am not great with coding but I am
going blurry eyed. I can't tell if it's calling to something else?
Help! and Thanks!!

Sure, this is in the script:
var isMainPageLoaded = false;
function init() {
//Create a timer to check to see if the bottom frame is
loaded
//before calling into it.
if (top.BottomFrame.isBottomFrameLoaded) {
top.BottomFrame.setArrows();
} else {
setTimeout("init()", 10);
And this is the code for the arrows/button
<a onMouseOver="window.status='Previous Image'; return
true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;"
href="javascript:top.BottomFrame.previousImage();"><img
name="previous1" src="images/previous_disabled.gif" width="36"
height="19" vspace="2" hspace="1" border="0" alt="Previous
Image"></a>
</td>
<td>
<a
onMouseOver="top.BottomFrame.togglePlayPauseImg('over');
window.status='Start or Stop Slide Show'; return true;"
onMouseOut="top.BottomFrame.togglePlayPauseImg('out');
window.status=''; return true;"
href="javascript:top.BottomFrame.togglePlayPauseState();"><img
name="pausePlay1" src="images/spacer.gif" width="19" height="19"
vspace="2" hspace="1" border="0" alt="Play/Pause"></a>
</td>
<td>
<a onMouseOver="window.status='Next Image'; return true;"
onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;"

Need help editing scanned images of old photo album pages PSE 9

Before I begin this project, I thought I'd get some advice from someone who has undertaken a similar project. I have three photo albums from the 50's and 60's. The albums were made by my mother who mounted the photos (mostly black and white but some color photos) on construction paper (of various colors) using the corner holders or glue. She hand cut the construction paper so each page is not a perfect rectangle ( about 11" tall, 8.5" wide). The pages were punched and put into a three-ring binder.
She added text to the edge of the photo and/or to the construction paper. Each page contains one to 6 photos and text. Each album has about 120 pages. I want to keep the notes on the construction paper so I scanned each page into a TIF files, 400 dpi and stored the images in a separate folder for each volume.
I use (poorly) PSE 9. I see it has a auto straighten/crop feature that can be used one photo at a time. I tried the divide scanned images function and that did not fully separate all images on the page and also created an image for stray objects on the page such as an unused corner holder. (I know those things have a better name but it escapes me now.)
I plan to create photo books for my siblings. I am now thinking of cropping the image of each page (rather than each photo on the page) into a uniform size, adjusting levels, contrast and sharpness, saving this image to a JPEG file, and using these edited JPEG images to create the photo book. Since each page was hand-cut, there will areas of white where one page was torn or cut smaller than another page. Some pages will have blanks where old photos have been lost leaving behind only the corner things. It won't be perfect but it will be an image of the album as it exists today.
My questions are:
The pages are about 11 by 8.5. Does anyone know a photo service that prints photo albums in a portrait layout in this size? I have been unable to find one; it looks like most online photo books are wider rather than taller.
Let's assume I use a company such as Shutterfly that offers a 12x12 format. I assume it would be better to edit the images in PSE9 rather than any online software. What should I do to keep the proportions in the current images true but make the image fit a 12x12 page, for example?
IS there any other editing software anyone can recommend that will speed this up, hopefully a software that would take multiple photos at one time, auto-straighten and auto crop to a set size? And also auto contrast/level/sharp. If I could use such auto features on these images and then go back and adjust the photos that did not play well with the auto features, that would save me time.
I appreciate anyone's input. I dread doing this but we have one set of photos and 5 siblings so it has to be done. Thanks!

Hi,
Mentioning your issues one by one:
1) PSE does not have any portrait Photobook available, so your thought was the best way to get the work done is by choosing the 12x12 - shutterfly one.
2) PSe does a good job of editing the images. You can set your images of approx. 11x8 size to fit to the 12x12 page. Just choose a one photo page Layout for the page and then right click on the image to " Fit photo in the frame".
3) If more edits are required for the image, you can easily go to Advanced mode and edit your photos, layouts, move the frames, images or add effects to the images.
4) Photo book creation sure takes time. because, you want it to be the best. I am sure PSE would help you best here.
Go ahead and create you photobook. Inc ase you get stuck somewhere, you can always post here to get help!
Cheers,
Swarnima

Heya Brendt,
Is the video within iTunes or just in your movies folder?
If it is not iTunes then ignore the "itunes" portion below.
Remove the following files to the trash (do not empty until you test for function):
~/library/caches
~/library/preferences/com.apple.itunes.plist
~/library/preferences/com.apple.frontrow.plist
- Repair your permissions - > http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=DiskUtility/10.5/en/duh17.html
- Restart your computer again
- Test and see how its working
Hope that helps!

Need photo album/gallery with upload/download capabilities

Hi all,
This is my first time here. I've recently purchased my first
Mac with iLife and have Dreamweaver MX. I'd like a photo album app
that allows for easy uploading of images (batch if possible). I'd
like to take the images and make quicktime movie slideshows from
iMovie and then upload those into the album so friends and fam can
look at. I'd like the albums to be password protected. I've looked
at Coppermine and Gallery, but I don't know a thing about PHP or
MySQL. I do, however, have some understanding of databases (MS
Access and Oracle) and I understand regular SQL. I did develop an
ASP app in a class a few years back, but not sure if any of that
knowledge remains in the grey matter (PHP and MySQL seem to be the
trends now). Will Dreamweaver make things easier if I attempt
either of the aforementioned apps? Is there a truly plug and play
app that might be easier? I am a bit lazy and pressed for time. Any
direction will be greatly appreciated.
