Photo Captions in slideshow or full screen mode

How do I show captions in full screen mode and/or in slideshow mode?

In the slideshow mode click on the Settings button  and then in the Settings pane select Show Caption and select Titles, comments, etc.

  • Hidden photos in full screen mode.

    Hey guyz, I think I need a little help here.When I see a photo in the full screen mode and try to navigate through the photos of a specific event using the arrows left n' right I notice that many photos are not shown and are skipped.I can't figure out what's going on.Searched on the web for any possible answers but found nothing.Am I the only one that's happening to?It's really annoying.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Are the photos just skipped or is there a blank screen of some sort when you get to those photos? What do you see or not see?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) 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 created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), 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. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

  • Adjusted photos in full screen mode show digital garble over image

    Since installing iPhoto08 viewing photos in full screen mode is very disappointing and frustrating. Some images will appear with this (for lack of a better term) digital garble over half or the full photo. Sometimes by switching to the next or previous image it will correct itself. It seems to happen only with photos I've adjusted. This never happened with iPhoto6 that I upgraded from. These photos are all 8 mpix, my mac is a G5 2.0 with 2 GB RAM. I've also noticed that the over all perfomance of adjusting the photos is very slow as well. I posted the image here www.capacitornetwork.com/iPhotoDigitalGarble.jpg. Compare the left and right halves (The photo was originally shot B&W). Thanks!

    zaadar:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Have you checked the HD with Disk Utility to see if it needs repairs? Not disk permissions but the disk itself. Also delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder. A corrupt preference file has been known to cause some strange problems. It's worth a try.
    Do you Twango?

  • IPhoto 11: How to view "all photos" while in full screen mode

    In iPhoto, when it's not in full screen mode, if you click photos in the sidebar (under Library), you get a nice view of ALL your photos, and you have the option to sort them by event. When you go from this view straight to full screen mode, it stays this way, which in my case is particularly useful since I like to move photos around from event to event. However, staying in full screen mode, as soon as I click an any other of the menus at the bottom (events, faces, places, albums, projects), I cannot find anyway to get back to the "all photos" view, other than to take it OUT of full screen mode, click on "Photos" in the side bar, and then go back to full screen mode. Either I am missing something that is glaringly obvious, or this is a rather annoying oversight by Apple. It seems like it would be natural to have "Photos" be one of the options along with Events, Faces, Places, Albums and Projects in full screen mode. Right now the only work around I've been able to come up with (aside from going back and forth with fullscreen mode), and to hit "command F" while in full screen mode, and then type "i", which will give me what I am want only because all my photos start with "i". Not a very elegant work around, I know, but perhaps I am missing something very obvious.
    Thanks for any advice!

    In case my description isn't clear, here is a screenshot of exactly the view in full screen mode I am talking about  that I can't seem to return to once I leave it, other than to go back to non full screen mode or use the search trick.

  • I was using the newest version on OSX 10.7.5 and I was in full screen mode and viewing a photo and it was impossible to exit full screen. This happened at 11:03pm on Friday April 12, 2013. How to fix

    I was using the newest version on OSX 10.7.5 and I was in full screen mode and viewing a photo and it was impossible to exit full screen. This happened at 11:03pm on Friday April 12, 2013. I deleted this from my apps and then deleted iphoto from my purchases in macbook app store the search it the app store and it says it has still been installed. What can I do to fix it?

    Well deleting it from your machine was not the way to go.
    Deleting it from your Purchases List was definitely not the way to go.
    So, I'm not really sure how you're going to reinstall it.
    But figure that out and we can try help. Contact App Store support. There's a link on the right hand side of the App Store Window. They should be able to get it back on your purchases list so you can reinstall it.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Full screen mode and Screen saver Photo viewing

    The problem I have is my images vary in size, due to photos being taken on different cameras, with different settings, or photos/negatives that have been scanned.
    When viewed in iphoto some of the photos are smaller than others in full screen mode (obviously because they are smaller) where as the larger photos are "made to fit"
    When viewed with the screen saver in System Prefs. The large images appear pixalated and "zoomed in" Where as the small and medium sized photos look great.
    is there any way of solving these issues?
    any suggestions much appreciated.

    Set it to the iPhoto Library.
    When you set it to the Photos folder that's exactly what you get. The Pictures Folder has many thumbnails and alternate versions of the photos as well as other garbage you don't want.
    Regards

  • How to show up "Photo Tour Bar" in full screen mode under Aperture 2?

    HELLO,
    Mine is a MBA with Aperture 2.
    I am unable to show up the photo tour bar in full screen mode>
    What should I do to get the photo tour bar on the top of my full screen mode?
    Camera Canon 40D.

    Hi 153957,
    Thanks for the response.
    I could see the film strip on the bottom ok in Browser plus viewer mode.
    When I go to viewer screen the full screen mode and I could not see the Photo tool bar-sorry I spelt it "Tour" in my question.
    Now I realised that the Photo Tool bar only appear when I move the cursor to the top of the screen.
    However in full screen mode I am unable to bring my inspector! Is that possible?

  • Everytime I go to full-screen mode the photo I am working on is on one space while the filmstrip is on another. Also there is no way to get to the menu on top as it is hidden. When I hit the f key everything goes to black and I have to quite the program.

When I hit the f key everything goes to black and I have to quite the program. This is the first time I have any problems with Aperture.
    I run aperture 3 on OS X 10.7 iMac 27" 2.8GHz i7 16GB.
    Thanks for any help.

    You have to change the cursor focus.
    What I usually do for PDF pages/tabs, is click in the URL/location bar, then F11.<br />
    For Flash, if you click on the page outside of the video area/box, F11 should work.

  • Photoshop CS5: border in full screen mode

    I ran this by in the User forums. Now I think I should file it as a bug.
    I use full screen mode in PS. It's important to me,especially when I take screenshots.
    Photoshop CS5 shows a border in full screen. Something CS4 or even Bridge CS5 doesn't do. I've attached an example:
    My video card is not detected by CS5 (or CS4) so the GPU options are grayed out in Preferences. I could shut off aero...but I like the functions it provides and I don't think I should switch in and out for one program. If any of the programmers here look at the situation....I'd like to know if they can fix it in a future update release.

  • "Move focus to next window" shortcut in full screen mode

    Does anyone know how to use the "Move focus to next window" sortcut when in "full screen" mode?
    When using a smaller screen (Macbook Air) full screen mode is a nice idea but I keep turning it off becauase the normal shortcut doesn't work.
    Any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.
    Cheers

    I can't duplicate your problem with my setup. Try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder and see if that will help. Often a damaged or corrupted pref file will cause some very unusual performance issues with iPhoto.
    Also you can try rebuilding the library while selecting just the option to rebuild the database.
    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 created 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Full Screen mode - file Name

    Hi
    Is there a way to display the file nane in Full Screen Mode.. This would speed things up for me.. we take 2 or 3 shot
    of every kid.. We rename all the files. So going back and for trying to pick the best one and delete the others. We are making the switch to Mac and we are used to ACDSee on the PC..
    Joe in Peoria AZ

    Is there a way to display the file nane in Full Screen Mode..
    Yes Bridge displays file names in full screen mode but strangely enough not
    when having opened the files with hitting spacebar the first go. You have to
    rate one and after this all the files will appear bottom left including the
    star rating.
    I'm kind of used to this but glad you remind us again, to my opinion it
    should be there in the first place, viewing full screen is not the same use
    as viewing a slide show.
    Again strangely in slideshow you have the option to set caption in some
    rudimental form but for full screen preview I'm not aware of such an option.
    But as said, the workaround is to select files in Bridge, hit space and use
    the shortcut cmd+. (dot) to increase the rating with one star.
    Now all the filenames and ratings / labels do show permanently for this
    visit to full screen.
    Decreasing rating is also easily done with cmd+, (comma). Hitting this
    decrease option first to none rated files sets them to reject, again hit
    cmd+. And the rating turns back from reject to zero.
    It is a very easy and useful way of selecting and rating, all the keys you
    need are close to each other

  • No sound in full-screen mode.

    When playing a movie or music video in full-screen mode, the sound goes away.  All other sounds play normally, but just the movie/music video sound goes away. The sound returns when exiting full-screen mode. I am on a Mac Mini Server (mid-2011) and play the sound through a Thunderbolt display.

    Thanks, I downloaded Acrobat 8 to try using legecy option but got message that I couldn't open it as it's not compatible with my OS. I can only use version 9 it seems.
    The fact that the file will play makes me think this should be possible so I kept trying.
    I found some success which allows one to see how nice this will be when it works.
    By following the instructions as before I put the play button on the bottom left except by dragging a small marque the button is that small size & doesn't cover the image.. After browsing & choosing the file, click the show advance options button & choose from the "Enable When" menu, " The page containing the content is opened"
    From the "Playback Style" menu choose "In floating window" Click OK & Save.
    When this is opened in Reader you are asked if you want to enter Full Screen Mode, choose yes. In FS Mode the photos start to do their thing, transitioning into each other. The floating window is in upper right partialy covering the photo. The pause sign is displayed as if it is playing but it's not. It never does unless you click the pause sign then click it again to play. One has to wait a while before this will work, maybe it's loading or something. Any way the music starts. By now the slides have ended.
    You can right click the floating window & choose "Close floating window". I it disapears but the music continues to play. One can then tap the left arrow on the keyboard to transition, still in FS Mode. Can also click right arrrow. It looks good. Only not automatic.
    To stop the music before it ends one has to click back to the 1st photo & right click on the small square & choose show floating window, then click the pause button to stop it.
    I think it is a bug. It just doesn't work as it should. How do we got Adobe to fix it?
    It would be so nice to have a cross platform way to share a slideshow with sound.
    If anyone has any better luck plmk.
    Thanks

  • Double Clicking Photo No Longer Opens in Full Screen

    Hi all:
    We have our preferences in iPhoto set so that double clicking a particular thumbnail opens the photo in Full Screen mode for editing.
    Just this morning, for no apparent reason, we noticed that the photos when double clicked now open with gray (or black, I'll have to look again when I'm back home) space on the sides -- in a sort of "letterbox" effect. The pix still fill the screen from top to bottom like they used to, but they no longer stretch completely to the sides.
    Any idea what has happened? We're thinking it's something easy, perhaps a stray click that unintentionally put us in a different iPhoto mode without us knowing it. (We did recheck our preference setting and "open in full screen" remains selected.)
    Thanks for your help.

    JDee:
    Try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist from your User/Library/Preferences folder. Launch iPhoto and reset your preferences.
