Repeating Photos in Slideshow

Hi,
I am trying to make a slideshow in iPhoto '08 which is quite short, about 8 slides. I want to have a background track which is of course much longer than it takes to show the 8 slides. If I view the slideshow in iPhoto it works fine, the pictures repeat while the song keeps going. If I export it though, the song stops at the end of the slides. Is there a way to export the slide show so that it repeats for the full length of the song?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Not with iPhoto. What you'll have to do is duplicate each slide as many times as you need to get the music to play for the entire track. Or useiMovie HD 6, it's still available for iLife 08 users, and copy and paste each photo in the timeline to be used multiple times.
iMovie will give you more control like setting the play time for each slide to what you want and then select all 8 pyhoto and copy and paste theme until they reach the end of the audio track that you added after adding the original 8 photos. Add transitions and any other enhancements and export.
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) 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 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar.

ATV doesn't show all photos in slideshow

My ATV3 doesn't show all my photos in slideshow. It seems to repeat the same, say 50, over and over, even though I have about 400 in the folder on my windows7 PC.
Whats the fix?
Thanks
Andy

For the avoidance of doubt are you talking about the screensaver or the slideshows.
Slideshows should show all your photos, but screensavers will not. Screensavers need to save the photos to the Apple TVs flash storage, the Apple TV doesn't have a lot of this and so limits the number of photos it uses.

Export photos FROM slideshow?

Can I create an album FROM a slideshow?
I created Album A (tons of photos) and slideshow A. I duplicated slideshow A and deleted all the photos I didn't want to include, that became slideshow B. Now I need to export the photos from slideshow B into a format I can burn to disc - photos, NOT the slideshow itself. Can I do this without having to recreate the wheel, and have to pick out the photos I want one by one in a new album? Thanks!

There is an easy way to keyword those photos so you can group them for exporting to the desktop.
1 - in the slideshow double click on the first photo to bring up the edit window.
2 - type Command+K to bring up the keyword pane
3 - assign a unique keyword, "xxxx", created for this process to the photo.
4 - hit the forward arrow key on the keyboard.
5 - assign the keyword to the next photo. Repeat until all photos have been keyworded.
6 - create a smart album: keyword is "xxxx".
7 - export the photos from the smart album.

Photos in slideshow "smear"

I'm using iPhoto '09 on 2 machines. On my G4 PPC (non-Intel) running OSX 10.5.8 photos in slideshow mode (not in albums, or library) show a "smear" at the edges. (This smear seems to fill in the black band at picture edges.) This crazy phenomenon does not appear on my iBook with the same iPhoto version and same OSX. Also I cannot go to turn music off unless I'm in Ken Burns mode!!!
Any ideas?

Dupont 24:
iPhoto has no limits to the number of photos a user can have in a slideshow nor in the number of photos you can at at one time. If the slideshow is already created, just select all the photos you want in the main library or in an album and drag onto the slideshow icon in the Source pane.
Do you Twango?

IPhoto09 v 8.1.2 Problem- Double clicking on thumbnail results in glimpse of photo and changes to ! with black background. No photo, no slideshow.

iPhoto09 v 8.1.2
Double clicking on thumbnail results in glimpse of photo before changing to ! with a black background.
No photo, no slideshow.
(Preferences set to magnify with double click)

That indicates that the iPhoto database has lost the connection to the high resolution photo - if you have not made any changes to the library (like cleaning uyp, deleting using thrid party software or form the all images list) then rebuilding will probably resolve it - Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto database

IPad Keyboard dock: Cant jump picture/images in Photos or Slideshows

Hi everyone,
I bought the keyboard dock accessory for my ipad.
I mean the keyboard onto which you can dock your ipad straight away.
Some of the keys in the top row of the keyboard are, according to the manual, supposed to:
"Fast-forward, or go to the next song, movie, image or slide"
"Play or pause songs, movies or slideshows"
Yet, I cannot seem to do any of the following. Is it normal?:
- when in Photos, cant go from one image to the next by pressing any of these keys
- when in Photos during Slideshow, cant pause the slideshow
The only function of these set of keys which works in my case, is in Youtube. They allow to pause the video, and also skip from one tube video to the next in the list.
Any help needed!

Hi Tasilisa,
I connected my iPad to my Keyboard dock to see what it would do.
Just once I got the keys working during a slide show. In all other cases it just controlled the "iPod App" during the slide show.
When I discover the trick, I will let you know.

Photo repeating in idvd slideshow

I'm using idvd 5.0.1 and have 3 slideshows on my dvd. When I burned the disc and played it on my dvd player, each slideshow has a photo repeated a the end of the slideshow for about a half second. The first slideshow has the first photo repeated and the other 2 have the last photos repeated. The "loop" feature is turned off and the f"it to music" is on.
Any ideas on why this is happening and how to fix??

Go back to iPhoto to see if the orientation somehow was changed. If so, make the correction there, and reimport into iDVD.
I hope this helps.

Can't advance photos in slideshow

I have a slideshow of 325 photos to illustrate a lecture; some are timed series and others manually advanced. In several slideshows I have experienced the problem of being unable to advance the slides manually after about two-thirds of the show. When I try to advance, the photo goes back to a previous image (sometimes repeatedly), then eventually after several presses, moves to the next image. This problem starts at the same point every time I play the slideshow and continues for 15 or 20 images, until I conclude the show with an auto-timed series.
I've unchecked the custom time box for selected images (so the default is shown), and I've been careful to pause the preceding auto sequence at its end.

Hello Bela Feher,
It may be that Aperture's database needs repairing or rebuilding, as database inconsistencies can cause images to appear incorrectly. I do strongly recommend verifying a backup of your data prior to proceeding.

Won't show entire photo during slideshow

I have many old scanned pics of various dimensions and when I create a slideshow, many of them are not shown in their entirety (think cropped) before the next slide comes. I have selected the "scale to fit" option but that doesn't quite get it done. Resizing them would distort the images, right? If I had small portrait pics in there and a large landscapes, wouldn't they come out looking like Kai's Super Goo projects?

I agree with the original post. I've got fairly regularly sized 4:3 photos, higher resolution than my screen, and I can't combine the Ken Burns effect and any other preference to ensure that I see the entire picture. Usually the top gets cut off - possibly because I have an iMac G5 whose aspect ratio is longer in relation to its height than my photos. The option to 'scale images to fit screen' doesn't seem to do anything either way - I would be happy with black bands at either side if I could get the whole pic but I can't. I can easily do this with GraphicConverter, a much simpler program. I am puzzled that people should be content to have slide shows where involuntary cropping takes place: and there's nothing in the Help file about it. Is it a Permissions problem?
TIA

Safari (and other browsers) won't open photos or slideshow

I recently re-published my web site last night with a new template. Everything works fine but now when I click on any photos in my gallery I get the following message in Safari:
"Safari can’t open “photos:%20Kates%20Summer_files/slideshow.html?slideIndex=1” because Mac OS X doesn’t recognize Internet addresses starting with “photos:”.
Same goes for clicking on slideshow. Also won't open with windows browsers - error message says something about finding an s: drive.
Any ideas?

Photo Gallery Slideshow

I’m currently looking into updating our company
website. It was originally built in FrontPage and is just a basic
frames site.
The guy who built it used a function in FrontPage called
Photo Gallery and used the slideshow option to create the following
images on the page:
http://www.bluchip.gg/bc403.htm
I would like to do a similar thing in Dreamweaver but I'm
going to need it to be really really easy so the other guy can do
it.
The FrontPage Photo Gallery was very simple in that all you
had to do was add the images you wanted and it would resize them
all to your spec and then create the slideshow.
Is there anything in Dreamweaver (CS3) that does the same or
maybe an add-on?
Any help would be gratefully received.

> Is there anything in Dreamweaver (CS3) that does the

Not really. Do you have Fireworks as well?
> or maybe an add-on?
I have used the ImageGalleryMagic extension from PVII - it's
mighty
simple....

Photo gallery slideshow can't be found. Why?!

I have uploaded a photo gallery to my .mac iDisk, but when I visit the page [and click on a photo] I get an Apple error saying:
We're sorry but we can't find the iWeb page you've requested. It's possible that:
·The address was entered incorrectly. Check your spelling and try again.
·The .Mac member of this name has either created a page and removed it or has never published an iWeb site.
·There is no .Mac member of this name. If you'd like this member name for yourself, sign up for a .Mac account right now and have your own iWeb site in minutes.
I have checked the folder containg the webpage in iDisk and all the photos are there (thumbnails and full-size photos) and the slideshow_assets folder is also there... So why won't it display?
If you want to have a look and tell me what you think here is the link:

Thanks, Lee.

Thanks QT-K.
I have added the Slideshow button to the page and positioned it at the bottom (as I didn't want it on the page), and I have uploaded to iDisk.
However when I take my browser to the page I get the same error!
These changes should take immediately, right?
Oh, and I emptied Camino's cache before I revisted as well.
Hmmm...

Photo gallery / slideshow component using rss

hi.. i was wondering if anyone can throw some light on this
issue. i am thinking abt making a simple flash gallery / slideshow
that will get info from an rss feed (either from flickr or a
customized Gallery2.0 feed). there is already one at
www.afcomponents.com, but their support is slow and the product
layout is not customizable.
so, does anyone know if another such component? or even
better, a script that i can work on myself? any thoughts, comments
and ideas will be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance,

Hello lukeage7,
I've done a bunch of similar galleries. Are you familiar with
xml in Flash
at all? The easiest way is to create an empty movie symbol on
your stage
and give it an instance name (placeHolder) for example.
Create an xml file
with a list of your image names, and then use loadMovie to
load the first
node's image into your placeHolder movie symbol. Then all you
need to do
is create a var you can increment to load the 2nd image, 3rd
image, 4th image
etc. I can send you a sample if you want.
That said, I've also used this product and for the low price
it is pretty
robust:
