Pictures lost in Slide Show

I added pictures from my flash drive into a slide show in Elements 6.0. I saved the slide show as a project. Several days later when I opened the project from the Organizer, the slides were black except for the text I had added. I assume I have lost the link to my pictures although I have not moved the flash drive since I made the slide show. How can I retrieve my pictures?

The photos have never appeard in Organizer because I imported them from my Flash Drive directly into the slide show. I have, however, opened,
edited, saved, closed, and reopened the slide show several times and the pictures were in the slide show. Now, all of a sudden, they have disappeared.
I was hoping to avoid saving the pictures in Organizer before adding them to the slide show... must I do that?

How do I re-order pictures in the slide show feature?

I am wanting to periodically add pictures to the slide show. Is there a way to...1. re-order the pictures? and 2. Have the latest one added be the picture that is the one first seen when the page is opened?
Thanks.

You can delete them and re-add them accordingly or you can use random which would show the random order of images.
Another workaround can be be done using layers, where you can drag the image to the desired position which you want to show in order with slideshow.
I have created a short video for you , please download from here :

How can I arrange the order of pictures in a slide show and add a caption to each?

I go to:www.photoshop.com/users/name. Then to My Gallery and click onto the album name then to "slide show." I want to reorder the pictures and add captions. How?

Go to your photoshop.com website. Log in if needed. Click on "Online Tools." Choose "Photoshop Express Organizer." Click and drag photos into the order you want.
Captions might best be added in the Elements Editor Organizer (99jon is correct) by double-clicking on thumbnail to make a full screen image, then a line appears under the photo and asks you to print your caption there. Sync it with your online website.

Pictures in iDVD slide show keep auto adjusting

Hi,
I'm knew to iDVD. I am a professional photographer and prior to iDVD used another piece of software to create DVD slideshows.
I created my first iDVD slide show, and encountered a weird issue. The only transition I'm using is a dissolve; it seems that at the time the slide show was being rendered, images were somehow being "auto adjusted" for exposure. The images come on the TV, then they automatically adjust for exposure; iDVD attempts to make lighter images dark and darker images lighter. It is annoying. Anyone know how to turn this "auto exposure" adjustment off?
I looked everywhere for help on this issue: I.E. turn off "auto adjust", but to no avail.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply...
Question: How do I turn on or turn off "auto adjust?"
I didn't quit and then restart...
The images are on the higher res side.
but again, where is the "auto adjust" setting located?

Missing Arrow pictures in iWeb Slide Show

iWeb creates navigation items for slide shows created with photo pages.
Now due to the closing down of me.com these images have disappeared.
Here an example of one of these items:
http://www.me.com/1/slideshow/images/arrow_right_on.png
I use iWeb 3.0.4.
It's an oversight that is not very Apple like, please get these images back on the server quickly, to confirm that you are a company that puts quality first. Thank you!

@roger
Why should this be a problem?
it would be a problem when you design web sites for multi client:
1) it's not fair to one client to be leeched by others.
2) when the image host server goes down, other clients are hosed... just like with mme.
but if you have a neater solution please publish it
what's there for me to publish, it's an installation package and I have it.

Why would you want to crticise OT's method
not crticising, just pointing out the flaws... it's an open forum.
It may be that the iWPopUpSlideshow.js is not the "proper place" to modify the slideshow but it works.
The "missing control background image" is easily fixed by changing the file paths in the iWPopUpSlideshow.css file in the resources folder.
that's just to prove iWPopUpSlideshow.js is not the proper place.
hint: slideshow.html is the file uses both iWPopUpSlideshow.js and iWPopUpSlideshow.css, start from there.
I don't see anybody coming up with something better and this is
yes I do have installation package for it, but with your (and other poeple's) snipy remarks at me... karma is...

I am trying to find a way to get iPhoto to display the keywords when I look at the pictures in a slide show

I have l lot of pictures of several trips and I display them on the screen as a screen saver. Many of the places I don't remember where I took them, but I made notes as keywords. How or what can I do to diasplay the keywords with the pictures?
I would buy another app if I know it will work for me.
thank you for any hints I can get.

Sorry but I know of no app that will display keywords during Slideshow. Several - including iPhoto - will display the title and you can change lots of titles quite quickly using the Batch Change command. As to what gets displayed during a ScreenSaver that's a matter for the individual screensaver.

How do i unlock pictures for my slide show?

how do i unlock pictures for slideshow? do i have to save them? where?

Which operating system are you running on?
Which version of Photoshop Elements are you using?
If you have made changes to a photo, those changes have to be saved before you can use that photo in a slideshow. Where you save it is really up to you.
Do you use the organizer and import all your photos into it? Please note that Elements itself does not keep a copy of your photos - you always have control over where the photos are stored. The elements organizer just saves the links to your photos.
If you have selected a photo in the organizer and then selected edit, the editor will open and you can make your changes. While the photo is open in the editor, it is marked as locked in the organizer. When you have finished editing the photo, save it and the close it in the editor. The lock in the organizer is then released.
I hope that helps you. If you still have a query, please tell us how you are working and we may be able to provide other advice.

Picture Tasks / Export to slide show -All gone for a Toss..Bad Adobe

In the older versions, there was a picture tasks menu, which allowed be to export the pictures to a slide show with music.Thats option is gone now in Acrobat professional 8 / 8.1.
Why Adobe is degrading its products!!! I regret purchasing the new version...
is there any way to do this?
I covert all my jpegs to a single pdf & then export it to a slide show...
Now I'm struck after upgrading to the new version..
if this option is not there..I'm sure I'm going to return the product ( creative suite)

It sounds like you may have had a plug-in that did the extra things you are talking about. You can make a slide show with transitions and all, but it takes time is not a simply menu item. You can set the timing for each slide or the timing as a whole. Adding music is an additional step. All of this can be done in Acrobat, but the automated aspect you mention is not part of Acrobat. Again, you may have used a plug-in that did it all for you. You might check PlanetPDF or the PDFZone to see if there are such plug-ins available.

Slide show cuts off pictures in iDVD

OK - So I'm about to go somewhat crazy.
I have pictures in iphoto that I have put into a slideshow. I am using scrapbook themes. I get the pictures into the slide show and have selected my music. I have exported to iDVD. My problem is that after I do the menus and everything looks good, I burn the DVD and when I play it, it cuts off some of the pictures. I have tried both formats 16:9 and 4:3 with no luck. I have gone into preferences and checked "scale to tv safe area" but can't get anything to work. Am I missing something simple or can anyone help.
As an additional note I have attempted to use the "show tv safe area" from the menus to preview as it says in the help section. However, it will show the red rectangle on the "title" part of iDVD but when the movie starts the red rectangle disappears. Don't know if this is a glitch with 09 or what.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

this may be more of an iDVD issue. Sorry - I will re-post there - However, any help is always welcome.

Slide Show ERROR, Internal software\Vobulator\BlockPlanner\.cpp Line 217

I'm putting together a slide show DVD. There are a total of 7 slide shows containing 480 pictures. All pictures are jpg's about 1000X1600 pixels and 500KB-700KB each. I have 3 menus for navigation. Not all of the chapter menu buttons point to a "slide show", some of them point to a picture inside certain slide shows according to my client's requests. (example, slide show 1 contains 70 pictures. Chapter 1 points to "slide show 1" Chapter 2 points to "slide show 1 photo 50"). All slide shows are linked so that when the first slide show is over, it will automatically "end action" to the next slide show etc... All my settings are typical. NTSC 4:3 SD 720X480 progressive.
There are NO video files in my DVD at all. No timelines at all. No audio at all.
The Symptoms/problem that I'm getting is this, when I try to Preview my DVD and ALSO when I try to build my DVD, the build will go through and "build the slide shows" then after it does that, this will come up
I've read some of the previous posts (one of them is in French for cryin out loud. Had to use Bing translator and it sounds all weird). What I can gather is this,
Re: internal software error: .\Vobulator\BlockPlanner\BlockPlanner.cpp, line 217
I found out it was due to selecting an image file as the video layer
in a menu, causes the error everytime. I just paste the image in with
'edit in photoshop' instead now. But thanks."
Another person said just about the same thing... The only problem is, I have no idea what this means. I don't know what it means to "select an image file as the video layer in a menu..."
Hardware/software is as follows:
custom build:
i5 processor (4 core) 2.6ghz
8 GB RAM 1333MHz
300GB C: drive (2X150 GB 10K RPM Raptors)
1.2TB D: drive (2X7,200 RPM 640GB WD's)
Burner is LG Super multi
secondary burner is Sony Commercial Blu-Ray burner
Video card is Saphire Build (Radeon 5450 PCI-E 16X)
Windows 7 X64 Pro
All Adobe is CS5 Production package.
If I'm leaving anything out, please let me know.
HELP! and Thanks. I'd really love to fix this without rebuilding the whole DVD. Take long time.

After adding audio to slide show, can we...

With the help of posts from this forum I got the audio up and running on a couple slide shows. I'd like refine a couple things, so has anybody done any of the following:
1) Can the pictures in the slide show fade in and fade out for better picture to picture transitions?
2) Can the play/pause button for the audio be changed? I'd like to add volume and maybe a percent indicator while the audio is loading.
3) Could the slide show start AFTER the audio is loaded? By the time the audio starts the slide show is usually on the 2nd slide.
4) Sometimes the audio will not loop. I think this depends on how the slide show window was closed. If the same page is reloaded again, the audio usually doesn't loop. Is there a way to re-initialize the slide show audio to guarantee it will loop each time.
5) Will the audio work if the end-user doesn't have quicktime on the computer?
I've been using this section of the website for beta testing -

It can be done, but you are asking for entirely different slideshow
With the help of posts from this forum I got the
audio up and running on a couple slide shows. I'd
like refine a couple things, so has anybody done any
of the following:
1) Can the pictures in the slide show fade in and
fade out for better picture to picture transitions?
Yes, but you will have to do extra works with javascript. There is a transition variable in slideshow javascript, but there is no control over the slide duration (it's fixed and there is now way to change it). This can cause some strange effects.
2) Can the play/pause button for the audio be
changed? I'd like to add volume and maybe a percent
indicator while the audio is loading.
Yes, change one of the arguments in QT_WriteOBJECT:
QTWriteOBJECT('SF_Soundtrack1.mov', '34', '16', '',
3) Could the slide show start AFTER the audio is
loaded? By the time the audio starts the slide show
is usually on the 2nd slide.
You can put a delay time to call QT_WriteOBJECT function, once again javascripts.
4) Sometimes the audio will not loop. I think this
depends on how the slide show window was closed. If
the same page is reloaded again, the audio usually
doesn't loop. Is there a way to re-initialize the

QT is preloaded in a mac, but not so for pcs; so QT needs to be installed on a pc.

Possible to include camera videos into iDVD Slide Show?

I would like to include the short camera videos with my still pictures in a slide show, is IDVD or iPhoto slide show capable of this.
My nephew used a program (ROXO -I think) on his PC to do what I am attempting on my MAC - can someone tell me if they have been able to do this using Apple's programs.

Hi Peter,
One question I do have is that if I "assemble" the pictures and movie clips in iMovie, then export them to iDVD..
..What about incorporating that with the Themes and structure that iDVD uses ??
Not sure I understand your question. iMovie is for editing movies (including still images). iDVD is for publishing a DVD using movie and still image assets. iDVD cannot edit any of the imported assets. The themes in iDVD are for setting up menu pages that allow the viewer to control the flow of the movies/still images, e.g. you can set up a button to start a movie, a button to start a slideshow, a button to a submenu with movie chapters.
It's a shame you can't drag'n'drop movies into iDVD like you can picures - Would make iDVD even more useful and powerful.
You do able to drag'n'drop a movie into iDVD, this will add a button on the menu page. It is just not able to "assemble" multiple assets into one long movie, that requires iMovie.

PE4 Error in trying to create slide show

When I try to create a slide show in PE4, I cannot add any photos to slide editor. I get 'slide show command failed. Unable to add photos from organizer'. There are pictures in the organizer. I have tried adding pictures from both the organizer and file folder and I still cannot create a slide show. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

I tried as you suggested and that didn't work. When I am in organizer and select photos, then click on create, slide show, ok, the following message apears. 'Error code C0000005, Address 847606' and then element closes. If when starting elements and I choose create and then slide show and the editor comes up. I click on add media from either organizer or folders and select pictures I get 'Slide show command failed. Unable to add photos from organizer.'
I am using windows xp home and a vaio laptop. Anyone have any other ideas? TIA

PSE13 slide show theme array

Any suggestions on how to do the following in PSE13 - slide show theme Array
     > How to modify the duration of each slide?
     > How to 'customize' the presentation of each slide (eg weather it is a single shot per slide or multiple shots per slide)?
     > How to adjust the shot size to display the entire picture (In PSE11 - slide show the shots were fine - nothing cut off or cropped, however when the same shot appears in PSE13 slide show the tops of the shots are being cut off)?

The Slide Show Editor was completely rewritten in PSE 13. Adobe was forced to do this because the legacy code that the SS Editor was using through PSE 12 was difficult to maintain.
Unfortunately the capabilities of the PSE 13, are very limited. What you see is what you get. I suspect that now that they have the foundation code in place we will see it enhanced in future releases.
In the meantime, I would keep PSE 11 around and use the Export command of PSE 13's Organizer to copy the images, import them into PSE 11 and make your slide show there.
Personally, I have found that the PSE 13 Classic theme works best for me. Otherwise I make my slide shows with other programs.
