Picture Titles in Slideshow, different from filenames

I want to add a different title to each picture in a slideshow, but don't want to use filenames for this purpose. How do I do that?
My filenames work fine for filing, but are not suitable for enhancing a slideshow.

I'm new to Lightroom, but am trying to set up my slideshow first session presentation. I want the filename to show with each slide for identification purposes. But, I can't seem to find where to turn the filename on/off. I'm sure it's a simple operation, but I sure can't find it at the moment!!!!
Thanks,
Jim...

Small book title page previews differently from layout in Aperture

I have laid out a small book and in Aperture I have:
1. The cover
2. A grey left hand page
3. A Title right hand page
4 etc - all the photos.
I've laid out some of these as double-page 1-up spreads. Looks great but the problem is when I preview it the grey left hand page right after the cover disappears, throwing everything out of sequence. This splits up the double-pagers, making the book absurd.
Any idea (a) whether Aperture or Preview correctly shows what the finished book will look like, and (b) how to bring them into line/avoid this happening again??

This post was great! Thank you so much. But I am hoping you know one more thing related to this. In the "transform" section of the definition (where the x/y coordinates are set along with height and width) there is an option called "angle". I was hoping that changing this value would allow me to offset the angle of the picture. However, if I put any value there other than 0 the template becomes unusable.
Do you happen to know what this option does?
I haven't looked into the files, so this is just a guess based on how some graphic applications work. It's common to think of rotating a shape as pivoting around a center point, but It's possible that the file sets a value for the rotation point not at the center. In some graphics applications, you can set a shape's pivot at any corner or in the middle of any side, of the rectangle that contains the whole shape.
So, your value may be rotating the shape around a pivot that moves the shape into some area that upsets the behavior of other shapes. Just a thought.

Peter's point is a good one. I would also assume that the "angle" property allows you to rotate an image, but I haven't tried it myself. One thing to investigate - are there any page templates included in LR that have image placeholders that are at an angle (I don't recall any, off-hand)? If so, looking at the associated .lua file could provide insight into how an angled image placeholder should be described.

Why do the colors appear different from photoshop when I place a picture in indesign?

I am new to indesign, and photoshop for that matter. But when I place a picture in indesign the color looks completely different from what it was in photoshop. Is this just a display issue or will it print with the wrong color?

You have a profile mismatch. Make sure the document and PS file's assigned profiles match. If you are not assigning color profiles then the Working Spaces in Color Settings have to match.

The preview of my brush is different from the results... Hard to explain (Pictures to help)

Out of nowhere, my brushes started acting up. The preview of my brush is different from the results. Im attaching a picture of my cursor preferences as well as an example of whats going on!
Please help me out!

Which version of mac os x and version of photoshop are you using?
See if going to System Preferences>Accessibility>Display and the setting the Cursor Size to Normal resolves the issue.

How come when I send a picture with iPhoto email it always send the same picture event when I choose a different picture until I log out from iPhoto

how come when I send a picture with iPhoto email it always send the same picture event when I choose a different picture until I log out from iPhoto

Why? Because something is wrong.
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

What to use to create a picture and video slideshow/presentation?

I was curious as to what someone would use in order to create a picture and video presentation/slideshow?
I think that iPhoto does a good job with getting all your pictures in order, and then using the templates and choosing your music to create a slideshow. However, if one wanted to include some video and narration into the slideshow, I imagine that they would need to use iMovie as well.
I know that you can drop images into iMovie as well, and I think they are automatically given Ken Burns effect, but if you have a lot of images, I think it gets pretty tedious working with all those photos, when iPhoto will already do all of that for you.
So, long story short. I would like to make a presentation with video and images. I would like to use multiple songs, and possible trim the amount of each particular song down, so there is some sort of mix/flow from one song to the other. I would also like to be able to record a narration and include it in the slideshow. I know that iMovie does a lot of that...I saw the narration feature, and the ability to trim the songs back some, and include more than one song. It also has the ability to choose only the portion of video that I want. So would you pre-create the photo portion of your slideshow in iPhoto, convert it to a movie, and dump it into iMovie? That seems clunky.
What process would you use? In my mind, I picture using a program that had some sort of timeline in order to be able to fine tune the audio and video, and iMovie has a timeline of sorts.
Currently running iLife '09.

I've been working for the last three weeks on a project like the one you describe. It turns out to be far beyond my limited competence, but I'm committed and have to trudge on.
Mine may be a little different from yours in that it has the equivalent of 106 "slides." There are twenty video. The "stills" are either text I've made in Word and saved to iPhoto as a pdf doc or photos. I've engaged actors to read the text that goes with most of still-slides. I thought I could create individual slides with the sound 'attached,' string them together and then make a movie out of the Power Point or Keynote slide show.
Nothing has worked so far.
iMovie has been a special heartbreaker. I've had at least a half-dozen chats with Apple Care and a couple of trips to an Apple Store to solve one challenge after another.
I can help with Ken Burns. Tedious is not a strong enough word, and the 'help' menu is not helpful, because it is Wrong., The controls are NOT the least bit intuitive. In fact, they make no sense - at least to me.
[I gave up on iMovie the first time because of Ken and the absence of intelligible instructions to make him leave.]
(1) Not finding the control. "Help" says to click on the crop icon on the tool bar (between mic and i) or to type "C". All I get is the crop function - Ken is nowhere to be seen.
(2) Finding it. The crop icon that should have been designated is accessible when you select a still photo. The hand icon appears; on the left side there is column of three icons. On top is Crop; the middle is the duration for the still - the default default is "4 s" // the bottom icon is the gear. Click the gear; there are four rows of choices; click the one at the bottom "cropping, Ken Burns & Rotation". At the top left corner there are three boxes "fit | crop | Ken Burns"// select "Fit" and Ken Burns is turned off. Why is "fit" is the opposite of "Ken Burns"? I don't know.
Here's a warning and a sad tale. I spent about three days getting the first 64 still/videos/transitions and audio clips assembled the way I wanted them.The audio for 65 went in okay and it looked okay, but nothing would make it play. 66 was okay but not 67 or any subsequent attempt - although the videos after 67 were okay.
During my final Apple Care conversation the diagnosis was: "corruption." Start over again with a new project!
I could select, copy and paste the visuals in those three moves, but the audios had to go over one at a time. Since you can't have two projects going at the same time, I'd have to copy one audio clip from the old project, select the new project and wait for it to come up, make the paste, and then wait for the old project to come up.
So watch out. I gave up on iMovie because the recreation of a new project would be so agonizing and with such a big project, I don't know how to avoid "corruption" for sure, and neither did the guy at Applecare. I switched to iPhoto, but after a day I realize that it's audio capability requires a process as tedious as trying to redo the iMovie.
Final Cut Pro is probably the right program but that's a whole other thing.

PS CS5 Image Display Differs From Used ICC Profile In Win 7

Hi,
on my Windows 7 Ultimate x64 machine, I just calibrated my Dell SP2309W monitor using an i1DisplayPro and basICColor 5, creating a ICC v2 profile (I am aware of the problems under Windows with ICC v4 profiles).
It created the ICC profile and applied it to be used by Windows. I double checked under COLOR MANAGEMENT that the new ICC profile is being used. Although I can see that the new ICC is being used (desktop appearance changes), there are a few issues I am experiencing:
(1.) Windows Photo Viewer
The thumbnails in Windpows Explorer look fine (they DO use the new ICC profile), when I double click a jpeg and open the image it DOES NOT use the new ICC profile. When I click the PLAY SLIDESHOW button (starting the slideshow) in the opened image in Windows Photo Viewer, the images DO use the new ICC profile.
(2.) Internet Browsers
All current internet browser (Firefox, IE, Safari and Chrome) DO use the new ICC profile and display the image correctly.
(3.) Photoshop CS 5
When I open the same image - that Windows Photo Viewer does not correctly displays (according to the new ICC profile) - in Photoshop CS5, I get the same image display that Windows Photo Viewer gives me (when not thumbnail or not in slideshow mode) - it appears to be the sRGB display.
My color settings in PS CS5 are: North America General Purpose 2 > sRGB IEC 61966-2.1.
When I go to View > Proof Setup > Monitor RGB I get the image display using the new ICC profile.
Why does the image look different in PS than my calibrated monitor should output ?
I was under the impression (please correct me if I am wrong), that the sole purpose for calibrating my monitor was to get a uniform display across (ICC aware) applications. Even when one applies different color spaces to a document in PS, I thought the output on my calibrated screen done by the graphic card should always be according to my calibration and the settings in the ICC profile being used.
What Am I doing wrong or what am I misunderstanding ?
Any help or input is appreciated !
Thanks.

Hello,
A note on monitor calibration: calibrating your monitor will not guarentee that every application will display color correctly, it's more of a step along the pipeline, and for the preview part of a color workflow it's the last step. Here's how color translation follows for an ICC workflow when previewing to a monitor:
Image Color Numbers > Document Tag or Workspace Profile > Monitor Profile
For non-color managed applications, if the original document is or isn't tagged with a color profile it will be translated directly to the monitor profile anyway. This is the equivalent in Photoshop of selecting "Monitor" in soft proofing. Selecting monitor in softproofing will bypass the tagged or workspace profile to translate colors directly through the monitor profile.
For most automatic color managed applications (like Firefox), the image will be translated through the tagged profile and then sent through the monitor profile. If the image is untagged or the profile is unrecognized, the colors get sent directly to the monitor profile.
For Photoshop, a tagged document will have its profile respected and then sent to the monitor. An untagged document will be assigned the workspace profile, which acts like a temporary document profile, and then gets sent to the monitor. This is often why users will notice Photoshop behaves differently from other applications. It's usually a case of the workspace coming into play. By default the workspace profile is set to sRGB. You can change this in Edit > Color Settings.
The purpose of the workspace is originally for printing workflows, as a way of keeping consistant color translations when dealing with both tagged and untagged documents. For web output workflows it can be useful for viewing everything through sRGB, which is typical of the average monitor output (not so with newer wide-gamut monitors, another source of confusion...) combined with the fact that originally most web browsers were not color managed. Hence viewing everything through sRGB is pretty close to what most monitors see and what untagged/unmanaged docs will look like.
Monitor calibration is useful only because it brings your monitor output to a "known state". In traditional workflows the monitor was always a middle-man, a preview device which was useful for getting an idea of what the printed output would look like before you print it. Since print colorspaces are often smaller than display spaces, it's feasible and useful to narrow down the monitor/display space and calibrate it to a known state, so that even if it doesn't totally match the print, you'll get used to its differences/limitations and they'll be consistent so long as the calibration is maintained.
For web output, your final output is often another user's computer monitor, which can have any form of behavior (most standard monitors are pretty close to sRGB, or use sRGB as an operating system workspace (default monitor profile). Wide gamuts behave differently, but I'm not sure if there's a particular ICC space that they closely match, or if different wide-gamuts are even that close to each other in their display color spaces.
Hope this helps!

Pictures are saved in different format in Photostream

I have not been using iCloud Photostream but I decided to do so for my iPhone 4S and iPad 2..
So, I turned photostream on for my iPhone and transferred about 300 files to my Macbook-doing so automatically transferred them to my iCloud Photostream.
However, I noticed that some pictures in my photostream look different from the original pictures in my iPhone.
Some are zoomed in strangely... for example, one picture of myself only showing my arm (zoomed in).
This is weird because when I look at phtostream pictures in my iPhoto of Macbook, they are fine.
But some pictures in my iPhone and iPad photostream look zoomed in.
Why is this happening and how to prevent this?

I have this too, but only on selected photos. The affected photos were taken using the front facing cameras on iphone 5 and ipad mini.
As OP reported, they look fine in iphoto but when viewed on either of the original devices they are zoomed in with the rest of the picture cropped. Deleting them from photo stream and re adding had no effect - they came back with the same odd zoom.
I would love to use photo stream to store my photos, but this bug is putting me off!
UPDATE: I've checked and the zoomed in pictures are consistent on both devices so it's not a random thing.

The type of the value being assigned to variable ... differs from the current variable type

I am trying to load a variable on SSIS Execute SQL Task with a string value. I keep on getting an error message :-
“The type of the value being assigned to variable “User::LegacyColumns” differs from the current variable type”.

Colours in result vastly different from preview

I've just installed the latest Photoshop CC. Whenever I go to Image → Adjustments → Anything, the result turns out to be completely different from what I see in the preview. For example, when I use Hue to colourize a picture:
If I do the same using the corresponding adjustments layer, I get the same result as in the preview on the screen, but as soon as I save the picture to a non-psd format, the colours are off again.
It is impossible to work like that. Do you have any idea why this happens? I should note that I work in the standard RGB mode, and the "Proof Colors" option is disabled (but if I enable it, the results are the same).

Well, I construed "preview" to stand for Apple's Preview Application. Not my bad this time, but yours.

Pictures quality of slideshow

Hi all
I have been trying to create a slideshow from my recent shooting using aperture 3, no matter what export format I chose, the quality of all the pictures in the slideshow dramatically decreases when playback from my iMac, even I chose the HD 1080p, the pictures turn out very blur.
I thought this maybe because I used raw format, then I exported the raw to jpg and created a separate project to hold all the jpg, and repeated the whole slideshow thing, I still got the same results. Does anyone have the same problem and know how to solve this?
One more question, I usually put raw and jpg into the same folder and then import into aperture 3, and I set raw as master. So, if i want to create slideshow out of these, which format is aperture gonna use for the slideshow, raw or jpg?
Thanks
Tony

Hi Tony,
Welcome to the user-supported Aperture discussion forum. Have you read Apple's terms for using this handy website? http://discussions.apple.com/help.jspa
I have been trying to create a slideshow from my recent shooting using aperture 3, no matter what export format I chose, the quality of all the pictures in the slideshow dramatically decreases when playback from my iMac, even I chose the HD 1080p, the pictures turn out very blur.
How are you exporting your slideshow? I'm not familiar with the functions to export a slideshow.
I thought this maybe because I used raw format, then I exported the raw to jpg and created a separate project to hold all the jpg, and repeated the whole slideshow thing, I still got the same results. Does anyone have the same problem and know how to solve this?
Are you indicating that you have RAW files in your Aperture library, and then you exported them to a temporary place as JPG, and then re-imported them as JPG into Aperture, and then recreated your slideshow using the "new" photos in your Aperture library? Your photos won't be blocky because they were generated from RAW in general. I'm not sure of your workflow here, though.
One more question, I usually put raw and jpg into the same folder and then import into aperture 3, and I set raw as master. So, if i want to create slideshow out of these, which format is aperture gonna use for the slideshow, raw or jpg?
It will use whatever photo you have chosen to be the master. If you are importing RAW and JPG together and they are stored together (based on your import options), you will see a little badge with an "R" or a "J" in the lower right corner of the picture. These badges mean that the RAW or JPG, respectively, of a RAW/JPG pair is being used as the master, and Aperture is storing and ignoring the other one, depending on your specific import option.

Size pictures in hd slideshow

Hi,
I would like to make a HD slideshow, which will be played on a big screen. I wonder what resolution I should make my photo's. I would like the photo's to be as sharp as possible. Could anyone advise me ?

Video is completely different from print. There are exact specifications for HD. Making your image 5000 pixels across will do nothing for you except making the compression process more complex and more likely to produce artifacts. The file size is not really relevant because it depends on the format. TIFF files are bigger than PNG, which are usually bigger than JPEG. HD frame resolution is all that matters. There are two standards essentially 1920x1080 and 1280x720. Of the four US networks two broadcast in one and two in the other. The size of the television is not relevant. If you want to do so-called Ken Burns effects you should probably make the images twice the HD screen resolution that you're using. In FCP set the spatial conform to none and use the effect so the image is never scaled beyond 115% of its full size. Using an image twice HD size should give you enough wiggle room. Remember video is not RAW. Its delivery formats are always compressed, often quite heavily, so a super-sharp image might not be a great benefit, and in fact a hindrance.

Choosing pictures in senseme slideshow.

How can I choose which pictures to show in senseme slideshow when using smartconnect. When daydream is inactive. Only pictures taken with the camera is shown. If I acticivate daydream all pictures in the picture folder show. I want to choose the pictures to be shown. Is this possible, if so, how do I do it?

I'd like to be able to disable the "SenseMe™ slideshow"
I don't like the fact that I can't control what images appear on the slideshow and some of the pictures I've received from MMS and other apps are pictures I don't want to appear on the slideshow

Is a Java Virtual Machine different from the Java Runtime Environment?

Ok I have heard people say they are running a java virtual machine, but how is that different from the Java Runtime Environment you install on any computer to run Java? Also if it is different what is the purpose of it and using commands like this:
-Xms512m -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -XX:+UseParNewGC -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC

I've noticed lately that at certain web pages a window
titled "Install on Demand" pops up and says that I
need to download "Java virtual machine." When I press
on the download button another window pops up that
says it was unable to download and that I should try
again or go to Windows Update to install the
component. When I do the Windows Update, at the
Windows Update website it states that there are no
updates available for my computer at this time. What
should I do?
Thank you in advance.I am having the same problem. I downloaded the JVM download from the sun homepage... and I still can't use digichat applet.. anyone have a fix?

Back up all data.
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with networks that require any kind of authentication other than a WPA or WPA2 Personal password.
When the Recovery screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the Mac OS. You don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac didn’t ship with Lion, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.
