Photos Move Randomly in a Slideshow? 9.5.1

I am in a slideshow (not an album) and when I try to change the order of the photos, all the photos move randomly to a new order. I can't arrange photos. I'm running iPhoto 9.5.1 Help?

There's a bug with iPhoto 9.5 and Mavericks in that slideshows from Albums do not play correctly if they are sorted manually. Only photos that have been sorted by date, keyword, rating or title will play from albums correctly.
To have a slideshow with photos sorted manually use the slideshow mode in iPhoto.

I am using elements & premiere 12 on my PC using windows 7. My problem is that photos in portrait view in slideshow are OK but when I move the slideshow to premiere to edit included video the portrait photos turn side-on and stretch when still in portrait view. Is there any way to prevent this from happening? Any comments would be appreciated.

What is the Output option that you are selecting for the transfer of the Elements Organizer 12/12.1 slideshow to Premiere Elements 12/12.1 Editor?
If you are using Edit with Premiere Elements output option, are you using the Premiere Elements command to break apart the Elements Organizer slideshow and then applying rotation to the portrait files? Or, it is this more than just a photo rotation matter?
More on this in the morning.
Please review and consider.
Thank you.

Missing photos/movies in iPhoto

Whilst adding photos/movies to my iPhoto 11 Library (version 9.4.2) stored on Time Capsule, it crashed. When I reopened it many items I had just been tagging had disappeared. I then did a search for them using the iPhoto search function, and it still couldnt find them. I then did a search on Shared using Finder and it found them. Apparently they are in the iPhoto Masters Directory. So if they are there why cant I see them in iPhoto. Do I have to rebuild the Library to see the items? If so how do I do that - is it risky?
Thanks.

That's not an appropriate setting for an iPhoto Library.
How are you linked to it? Wireless?
So if they are there why cant I see them in iPhoto.
Because you damaged the Library in the crash.
First off, move the library to an appropriate setting - any disk formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled) with a cable based connection.
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Recently added photos/movies missing after closing iPhoto '09

I have iPhoto '09 (8.1.2 (424) running on an Intel iMac Core (1) Duo with Snow Leopard, all software updates current. Tonight I went to add several photos and movies to my iPhoto library (19,000+ photos). They imported fine. I moved some around with respect to events, fixed some dates, but did no photo edits. Then I closed iPhoto. When I opened it back up, all of the recently added photos were gone. The "Last Import" said "(0)". I found the photos/movies sitting in my iPhoto library in the file structure and could open them up and view them with Preview or Quicktime, respectively. But iPhoto didn't know they were there. I tried to drag and drop them into iPhoto again and it wouldn't let me, saying they are already in the library. I was able to reimport from the original location on my desktop and after closing and re-opening, same thing, no photos in iPhoto but another copy of them in the "iPhoto Library package > Originals > 2011 > ..."
This is repeatable. I can delete the folders I added then reimport and after closing and re-opening, nothing. I've rebuilt the library 2 times using command+option with all options selected except "rebuild from automatic backups." I can drag just one image into iPhoto from the bunch and it disappears to after a close+reopen. I have not yet tried to do a camera-based import. These are files on my desktop.
Lastly, I think this may be a red herring, but I just recovered from a HD crash last week. I got a new HD installed by professionals and did all the new installs to Snow Leopard and restore from my time machine backups myself. Everything looks/works like it did before the crash, except one of the user's (4 of us on this machine) desktop was missing their background pic and had to re-add it. All the other user's desktop pics were fine. This desktop pic was associated with the iphoto library I'm having the problem with. I just realized after talking with my wife that all the pictures she has added since the crash have had the same behaviour and are sitting in the iphoto library package but are not in the iPhoto library "viewer" when iPhoto is open.

The Library database is corrupted.
Best option: restore from back up. Otherwise:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Why do my photos move around when I save an image from email so difficult to locate the new saved image

My photos move around randomly after I save an image from email can't locate picture easily with 1000 photos on iPad please help

I believe the default is for them to order themselves in 'date taken' order. Unfortunately there's nothing you can do to change that. It's the default in the photos app and users can't change it. You can try looking for a third party photo app that may have more functionality. Afraid I can't recommend any since I've never looked for them but I'm sure someone can.

How do you play photos in random order?!?!?

This is apple right? You can do things very easily, thats why I switched from PC. How do I view photos in random order in iPhoto? The help menu says to choose the "Shuffle Slide Order"... WHAA? Where is this on the menu, am I doing somethig wrong? Please tell me I am just missing the obvous.
Thanks!
B

Hi Brian,
I am assuming you are talking about an "on the fly" slideshow.
Select the images, album, roll, etc. and hit the Play button on the bottom left of the window. In the next window, check "shuffle slides order"
Pssst...just a little hint, you will not find shuffle on a permanent slideshow menu for an option.

Some of my still photos move up and go out of focus

I am making a slideshow and some of my photos move up a little and slightly go out of focus one frame after the in video transition effect. They remain out of focus until the next transition and then they move back down and go into focus one frame before the out transition. I am using the Fade in Fade Out Dissolve effect. The photos are in focus during the video transition effect. They are acting as if I have a double image. This is not happening to all the photos. Any suggestions on how to correct this and how to prevent this from happening?

My photos come from images in IPhoto. They are clear photos and work well in a IPhoto slideshow. They appear to jump up and out of focus just after the dissolve transition then they jump back down and into focus during the exit dissolve transition to the next photo.

How can I export a slideshow from iPhoto to iMovie 09. I try but it only lets me import 211 out of the 311 photos I have in the slideshow.

How can I export a slideshow from iPhoto to iMovie 09. I try, but it only exports 211 out of the 311 photos I have in the slideshow I made on iPhoto.

how do i change the format to the right one?
Before you can decide what to do, you have to know what you are starting with. Sony MPEG-1 files would be converted one way while DivX or WMV files would likely be handled in another. Extraneous tracks can be removed directly with QT Pro but if you don't have QT Pro then there may or may not be other work around possibilities depending on the specific audio and video compression formats in use. The best place to start would normally be to double-clic the source file in iPhoto to open it in the QT Player. When it opens in the QT Player, check the "Inspector" window to see what it says on the "Format:" lines. This will tell you the type of audio and video content you are dealing with here. Then come and tell us so we can offer some specific conversion solutions.

HT201250 I have two external hard drives. One is my Time Machine backup drive. The other I use for external storage of files (documents, photos, movies, etc). Can I set Time Machine to backup BOTH my Mac hard drive and my other external hard drive?

Yes you can make multiple backups on one hard drive, for example if you’ve 1TB hard drive installed in your PC and you’ve two Mac Machines with 500GB drive each then you just make two backup images with size of 500GB each.

Moving Photo/Movie gallary from Mobile me to icloud then sending pics to icloud from iphoto?

Hi,
I was/am a mobileme subscriber and have many photo albums and movies in my mobileme gallery.
I have a couple of questions:
- How do I transfer my existing photo/movie gallery from mobileme to icloud?
- How do I setup my iphoto 11 to send photos to icloud from the share button in the bottom RH corner? It still has share with mobileme in the selctions and when I try to share it fails?
Thanks,
Steve.

- How do I transfer my existing photo/movie gallery from mobileme to icloud?
What happens to the pictures that I’ve posted to my MobileMe Gallery?
You can continue using MobileMe Gallery through June 30, 2012, even after moving to iCloud. You should save copies of all photos published to your Gallery before that date. If you have a Mac, it is likely that most of your Gallery photos are already in iPhoto. If not, you can sync the Gallery photos to your iPhoto library. You can also download your photos and movies from the web. Please read this article for details.

I created an album from photos taken off three different cameras. I am sorting the photos manually and when I close iPhoto, the photos move back either by date or by camera import time. How can I keep the photos from moving around?

Cannot open any photos/movies in Entourage, message comes up saying 'folder cannot be found'. Last week I deleted lots of old documents/downlods and fear that I have accidentally deleted file that opens photos/movies.....any suggestions???

I cannot open any photos/movies in Entourage, message comes up saying 'folder cannot be found'. Last week I deleted lots of old documents/downloads and fear that I have accidentally deleted what is needed to open photos/movies. Any suggestions please? Should re-install the whole Office:mac program, and is it easy to do this without disturbing what I have on my computer?

When you password-protected these folders then you did so to prevent anyone from accessing the pictures unless he had the correct password, even if he deleted the password application itself. Are you now asking how to get around this protection? If you
selected a robust protection scheme then you probably got what you wanted: uncrackable encryption. You need to check the FAQs of this application and/or google for clues. Alternatively you could restore your files from your external backup medium (if you have
one . . .).

Photos missing randomly

The surprising fact is that the missing photos are random, I mean they not not most or least recent, nirther it is a contionous chunck of photos. For each of the events I have covered using my phone only acouple of photos are now available in camera roll.
Any one has seem this issue or how can I recover th missing photos.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
The ! or ? turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
The most common cause of this is User Activity in the iPhoto Library Folder.
Have you altered, moved or renamed anything in the iPhoto Library Folder?
If you haven't, then try rebuilding the database. Hold down the apple and option (or alt) keys and launch iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
As to the apparent duplication of the pics in the iPhoto Library Folder: A Note about the iPhoto Library Folder:
In this folder there are various files, which are the Library itself and some ancillary files. Then you have three folders
Originals are the photos as they were downloaded from your camera or scanner.
(ii) Modified contains edited pics, shots that you have cropped, rotated or changed in any way.
This allows the Photos -> Revert to Original command - very useful if you don't like the changes you've made.
(iii) Data holds the thumbnails the the app needs to show you the photos in the iPhoto Window.

Can I rearrange the order of photos in an event or slideshow?

I want to rearrange the order of photos in an vent, or slideshow. Can I do this??

Actually, you can do this if the date is sequential. I have 35K of photos, and 280 events. They are sorted by date, using year, month, and sometimes day as the title. If it is more specific, I use year,month,trip information, for example.
