Posting slideshow on iweb from iphoto

okay, i'm new to mac and website design. i would like to know how i can add a slideshow that i made in iphoto and place it on iweb?
i'm using the 60 day trial. is this feature not available to me? in iphoto >share > send to iweb> the options aren't highlighted.
i'm very lost and any help would be more than appreciated.
Marisa

Marisa,
Welcome to the Discussions!
I am not using the 60-day trial and I don't have that option available either. My best guess would be that slideshows as such cannot be sent directly to iWeb. What can be sent to iWeb, is a photo album containing the images that you built the slideshow with in iPhoto, and they will then become a photo page in iWeb. Once you have a photo page in iWeb, and publish it, whoever visits that page can view the photos as a slideshow in his or her browser. You won't have music that way, though.
Alternatively, you could export your slideshow from iPhoto as a QuickTime movie, and put that on your website on a movie template. Be advised though that iPhoto tends to create large files this way, and they may be too large for publication on a web page. I just did a quick test and 17 photos exported at medium size generated an 18MB movie... I believe iWeb advises us to keep movies under 10MB. Maybe someone here knows of a trick to compress that more.
Hope this helps.

  • Sending slideshow to IDVD from IPHOTO

    I am losing quality when i export slideshow from iphoto. Quality is good when it is in iphoto but not in idvd

    Was any of the music purchased from iTunes? If so, it is possible that this music has the DRM protection which has been know to cause problems such as this.
    If you are using iTunes music, you should take these preliminary steps.
    1. Burn the music in question to a CD.
    2. Reimport the music as an AIFF file using either of these procedures.
    If you have iTunes 8.0, go to iTunes Preferences>General>Import settings (drop down menu) AIFF encoder
    For earlier versions: iTunes>Preferences>Advanced>Importing>Import using: (drop down menu) AIFF encoder
    3. This music can now be imported into your project.
    If you are still having problems, I suggest that you start a new topic in the iPhoto or iDVD forum. Your issue is different from that of the original post, and starting a new topic will help to give your question the attention it deserves.
    I hope this helps.

  • Problem making exact same slideshow in iDVD from iPhoto

    I have made a slideshow in iPhoto, and want to burn exactly the same on to iDVD. Slideshow contains stills, small video movies and music from iTunes. Problem: I have burned a DVD in iDVD, but I can't get Ken Burns Theme, movie sound and movie is not in sync (sound starts long before movie) and poor resolution in pictures.
    I want to show the iPhoto slideshow without bringing my entire iMac. Any suggestions?

    Another option is to Share/Export the slideshow from iPhoto to Quicktime (Choose large/full quality option). This turns the slideshow into a video file with all parts integrated. You can play it with Quicktime Player to make sure it's right before dragging/dropping it into iDVD.
    Exporting looks like this:

  • Problems exporting slideshow with music from iPhoto 5 to iDVD

    I made a slideshow on iPhoto, and selected one Playlist with 4 tracks as backgroundmusic. When I ¨play¨the slideshow in ¨iPhoto¨ I can listen the music ( all 4 tracks), but when I ¨export¨ the slideshow or ¨send to iDVD¨, the final Quicktime movie contains all the fotos but only the first track of the Playlist.
    I use Quicktime 7.1.3, iPhoto 5.0.4 and iTunes 7.0.2
    Can somebody help me to find a solution...:)...? thanks...
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    this was a known problem with iPhoto 5. do you have the latest update to iPhoto 5?
    Only one song exporting with Slideshows
    With iPhoto 5 this seems to be a know problem/bug. There have been some work-arounds. Don't know if the problem is with iPhoto, Quicktime or a combo of both.
    -From Bob Worthington: re-ripping the cuts I wanted as background music for the DVD as a single cut in iTunes. I then made a playlist containing the one extended cut of music.
    -Old Toad: share to Quicktime from iPhoto and then import the resulting movie into iMovie you can extract and delete the audio from the video and add the two songs to the video and save.
    Quicktime Pro-open the movie and bring up the Movie Properties menu window. In the top window select the audio track and delete it.
    If you want more than one song you'll have to join them together with iMovie or some other application. Then open that joined file with QT Player. Then do a select all and copy. Now go to the QT window of the movie and select the Edit->Add to Movie menu option. You don't want to scale it because it will change the play speed of the audio unless it's time is exactly the same as the movie.
    You could go the other way, open the movie, select all and copy, and then past with scaling to the audio. That will change the speed of the movie and transitions to fit the audio track. In this case the resulting video file will have the name of the audio track file that you started with.
    You may have to play with it a bit to get exactly what you want. Be sure to work with copies of all the media files for the project.
    -Peter Burtwistle: I opened the Qt movie that iPhoto makes when you export to iDVD and removed the sound track.
    Then made a new soundtrack by opening all three songs in QT, then cutting and pasting them together.
    Finally use QT Pro's 'Add to Movie" option to add the soundtrack to the original movie.
    This worked well and was fast to do too.
    -Joe Lombardo: I ended up having to extend the songs by 20 seconds so I brought them all into GarageBand and made some edits. Then I exported them all to iTunes as a single track and used that for the slideshow
    From scotty321 at MacOSXHints.com: If you have Roxio Toast Titanium installed on your machine, you can join unprotected tracks yourself by simulating a disc burn. Simply take these steps:
    Go to the Audio tab in Toast.
    Drag your audio files from iTunes into Toast.
    Reshuffle them in the proper order within Toast.
    Go up to File: Save As Disc Image. Save your disc image somewhere on your Desktop.
    Choose Utilities: Mount Disc Image. The CD will mount on your desktop, and iTunes will think that you just inserted a CD.
    Within iTunes, select the tracks that you want to join and then use Advanced: Join CD Tracks.
    Go through the import process, and you've got a joined track! Simply rename the track to whatever you want to call it, and you're good to go.
    From Lori...
    Burn the playlist in iTunes.
    Make sure you have itunes Prefs just open the Cd and not automatically play or import the songs.
    Insert the burned CD and iTunes will open.
    Within iTunes, select the tracks that you want to join and then use Advanced: Join CD Tracks.
    Go to Advanced>convert selection to AAC.
    When done, make a new playlist named after the slideshow.
    Put the new combined track into the playlist.
    In iPhoto, select this playlist for your slideshow.

  • Slideshow project shared from iPhoto causes iDVD to crash

    I've searched the forum and found a few threads that sounded like they pertained to this issue, but I didn't see much discussion beyond the question or any answers that had confirmations that they solved the problem.
    I've created a slideshow project in iPhoto '08 (version 7.1.5), and I used the "Send to iDVD" option from the "Share" menu to send it to iDVD '08 (version 7.0.4). The export appears to work, a menu button appears in iDVD, and I'm able to work in iDVD to make changes to the theme, menu text, etc. However, if I try to actually view the slideshow movie in iDVD (either by double clicking on the menu button in the iDVD interface, or by using the "Preview DVD playback" button and then choosing the movie from the DVD menu), iDVD crashes. This is happening consistently. I've gone to my Movies folder and found the exported movie file that iPhoto created. This plays back in QuickTime Player just fine. If I add the movie to my iDVD project manually (as opposed to using the "Send to iDVD" option in iPhoto), it still causes iDVD to crash if I try to preview it.
    Out of curiosity I brought a non-iPhoto generated QuickTime movie into iDVD, and it played back with no problem. I checked the compression format. The movie that worked was an Apple Motion JPG A movie file. I tried another non-iPhoto generated QuickTime movie file. This time iDVD crashed again. I noticed that this second non-iPhoto generated movie file said it was using the "Apple MPEG4 Decompressor" which is the same format as the movie file that iPhoto did create. I then tried an Uncompressed 8-bit 4:2:2 QuickTime movie file and that worked just fine. Is that the problem? Apple MPEG-4 Decompressor movie files cause iDVD to crash? Could that really be possible when this is the format that iPhoto uses when exporting? Is there a solution? I don't see a way to select a different compression format when exporting/sharing a slideshow from iPhoto.
    I discovered this problem while teaching a class to 12 students who don't know much about doing creative projects on a Mac. There are going to be 12 folks who don't think very much of Apple's computers and/or its software if I don't get this problem solved quickly (last day of class is tomorrow). Everything has been going along swimmingly up until this final step of getting the slideshow into iDVD and then burning it to take home. I'm stunned that this isn't working since I've never run into this problem before, but it's happening consistently with every workstation I've tried here in this lab. All computers are running iLife '08. We're all trying to do the same thing. Slideshow project created in iPhoto, trying to send it to iDVD for burning. I been doing stuff with iPhoto and iDVD for years without problems, so I didn't think I needed to run through an entire process here in this lab before teaching the class. I just expected everything to work like it always does. D'oh!
    Help!

    UPDATE:
    In case you're interested.... Just because iDVD crashes when I try to preview my slideshow movie from iPhoto doesn't mean I can't successfully burn my DVD project to disc. I was skeptical, but it works. The burn process went off without a hitch, and the DVD plays back using Mac OS X's built-in DVD Player.
    Another workaround is to use the "OneStep DVD from Movie..." option in the iDVD file menu and avoid working inside of iDVD.
    Someone suggested that perhaps my trouble was connected to using a legacy theme as opposed to one of the newest 7.0 themes. Any truth to that?
    Just because I can burn a DVD successfully doesn't mean I wouldn't still like to fix the crash problem if possible. I'm grateful that I now know that I can work around the crashing problem, but I do think it's something that should be fixed and not just avoided.

  • I have Toast Titanium.  How do I transfer an existing slideshow with audio from iPhoto to Toast to burn onto a dvd to play in a dvd player?

    to export from iPhoto select the video and export - as to how to use Toast - that is a wuestion ofr their support - it does not involve iPhoto once you do the export

  • Iphoto and Facebook aren't communicating. I'm unable to post pictures to FB from iPhoto. Any suggestions?

    IPhoto and Facebook not communicating. Pics won't upload from iPhoto to Facebook.

    Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS.  So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • How to play a slideshow (with movies) from Iphoto to Apple TV second gen

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how to play a slideshow with movies, that I normally play perfect with Iphoto (I even can add music)to let it stream to the Apple tv second gen?
    So I have some movies on Imac from a holiday in Egypt and Iphoto alows me let it play as a movie.
    How can I setup my Apple TV so that it is the same on my Apple TV? So with nice fade ins and outs?
    Thanks

    Ok Thank you, but I have one more question.
    The Iphoto library is loaded with different movies and Photos. They are sorted by date.
    Is there a possibily to make folders in Iphoto. So that I have on folder called for example "vacation Egypt" and put all the movies in this folder within Iphoto?
    And then when I select this map it will make a slideshow from all this movies with music? Just like in Iphoto?

  • Importing slideshow 16/9 from IPhoto to FCP

    I'm using FCP I'm trying to import a slideshow with 16/9 pictures!
    The import is no problem, but it is not 16/9 and if I try to resize the pictures, the quality is coming bad, and the file is 10 times larger !?
    As anyone else had this problem. If so, how was it resolved?
    Thanks,
    Peter

    I checked the additional content and the Digital Camera Raw Compatiblity Update was downloaded on Dec 19.  Checked Apple's list and the Canon 70D was listed as being compatible with FCP X.  In Iphoto I changed some of the RAW photos to JPG and some are now coming up in the Inspector in FCP as CR2 photos.  All of the photos are coming up a green in the FCP browser whenever I click onto the photo in Library.  I have Trashed the images several times and reloaded them from the SD card.  Could it be the card?  Although the vidio footage I shot this morning on the same card loaded fine.

  • How do I export a slideshow with music from iphoto to facebook?

    I have a Bloggie camer/video recorder and I took some pictures and video of an outing I had with some friends. I'd like to share the iphoto slideshow on facebook with my friends in the slideshow format that includes the default music of choice. Any suggestions? I am using a macbook pro.

    I have the same question!!

  • Slideshow music from iPhoto

    I just got a 60G iPod Photo and it's great but when I select Slideshow Settings>Music>From iPhoto I get silence from the iPod when I play a slideshow. It works fine if I select anything other than "From iPhoto". I have made sure the song is on the computer and the iPod and it is selected in iPhoto. I am running 10.3.9, iPhoto 5.0.2 and iTunes 4.7.1.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    David- I feel your pain, but the function seems to be nothing but nonsense:
    The only way to add music to pictures in iPhoto is by creating slideshows (I have not found a way to add music to albums - have you?).
    The only thing you can synch to iPod is albums, not slideshows.
    Go figure.
    The menu item "Music - from iPhoto" just does not make sense.

  • Better Slideshow from Iphoto or IDVD?

    I have a project I'm working on. It's strictly going to be digital photos, but there are about 400 of them. IDVD can create the slideshow, but I can only fit 99 slides in each section. This means I have to make four different slideshow. Furthermore, IDVD will only apply one type of transition to each slideshow, not individual slides.
    I can make a slideshow from Iphoto that fits all of the pictures and I can customize the transitions for each slide.
    I'm just wondering which one provides a better quality slideshow. I understand that Iphoto has a few more options to work with, but slideshows can only be exported to small, medium, or large. Will there be a noticeable quality difference between the two programs?
    Thanks for any input..

    I made the video 720X480 or 'large'.
    This is actually the rectangular ('thin') NTSC DV video pixel size - in digital still image terms the real size is 640x480.
    I've noticed, sacrificing a dvd to do so,
    that the slideshow I made from iphoto fills the
    entire screen while the one from idvd does not. I've
    also noticed that some of the edges (nothing really
    major) are cut off on my CRT TV.
    CRT display devices (like TV sets) have something called 'ovescan' to hide the syncronization pulses included in the video signal.
    iDVD gives you a choice of correcting for overscan if your DVDs will be viewed on TV sets (but on computer monitors, you will see black edges).
    The video does not look as good as it could, but I
    guess it is acceptable. I wonder if we'll have
    higher quality options in the future release of IDVD?
    Right now we are limited by the NTSC/PAL DV specification. As we all make the transition to HD, things should get a little better.

  • When importing photos from iphoto to Aperture....

    When importing photos from iphoto to Aperture 3 it shows two versions of each image. One is original and one is iphoto edited.  It shows this for every picture even if it was never edited in iphoto.  Has anyone ever experienced this?  Is so, what image should I use to edit in iphoto?

    This is asked and covered a lot here, a search of the list will bring up numerous other threads covering this. Also the More Like This box on the right side of the page will show you other posts on this topic.
    This post, Duplicates when importing from iPhoto is the most recent example.
    Briefly iPhoto took even the most trivial change to an image as an edit and created a new image. The most common reason for this is rotated images.
    As for which image of the two you want to keep, that's entirely up to you. If there is really no difference between the two then you can keep either it makes no difference.
    The thread I linked to above will explain how to use Aperture's filters to gather up all of one or the other.

  • Exporting an album or group of photos from IPhoto 08

    I have read the various posts on exporting photos from IPhoto 08. I have an email program that allows only one attachment/file. When I export an album to the desktop, it is not delivered as album but includes all the separate JPEG photos in the album. My desktop then shows only the separate JPEG photos. Thus I am unable to attach an entire album/file to any program, but only separate pictures. What can I do?? By the way, I old and not real sharp on the Mac, so make any suggestions simple please! Thanks!

    Stephen
    When you export the Album, make a folder on the desktop to receive the pics:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    Then you can zip that folder (in the Finder: File Menu -> Compress 'Folder Name'. This will make it a zip file. Attach that to your email.
    What do you use for email? I've never heard of one that allows only a single attachment.
