Slideshow "Adjust" button fails

I love iPhoto!.. yes, I've used iMovie quite a bit, and I've done many movies into idvd, then burned them......BUT, I really love the automatic transitions that iPhoto does, so I find that I'm going towards iPhoto instead of iMovie.
BUT....the problem I'm having with iPhoto is the SLIDESHOWS!.....
When I want to time a frame for 1 or 2 seconds, I click on "adjust", and when I
enter a time value, it simply does not register that value. AND, I've tried every which way to see if I'm doing something wrong, but it simply will not cooperate..
Am I making myself clear here?....I'm talking about in the "Slideshow" ADJUST mode, when I'm trying to make a photo frame (picture) 1,2,3 or more seconds long or shorter, iphoto will not let me do it!...
Listen.....the Ken Burns transitions are simply 'Superb", and they're all "automatic", and when I burn the whole thing onto iDVD, it really makes me look like a Pro, which I'm not, but I love the finished movie so much..
But, I'd like some frames (picture) to be timed longer or shorter then some others.
SO.....am I the only one who's got this friggin' problem or what?....
Please respond with some solutions/answers...
Thanks..
Happy Memorial Day...

When you say you "enter" a time value, are you trying to type it in? I can't type in a value but I can use the up/down arrows to increase/decrease the value. Any chance this is your problem?
This one probably is not your problem, but some silly habit on my part: I automatically keep hitting the "Reset to defaults" button as if it is an "OK" button. I'm just supposed to close the window but some kind of automatic habit makes me click the Reset button and lose my adjust setting.
But when I finally use the adjust the way I'm supposed to, it does work for me.

Slideshow navigation buttons not working.

Having had the slideshow navigation buttons that exist below my photos (back, pause, forward) working fine for some reason they are now coming up as question marks in Safari and error boxes in Firefox and Explorer. I have not made any changes to my site but have republished since discovering the problem but it still remains.
I have looked for the cause in iWeb but have no idea what will remedy this.
Any help much appreciated.

Caused by the recent update from .Mac to MobileMe and out of our hands for fixes.
The trouble is caused by some of the links create by iWeb that point to files found on Apple servers (not your iDisk). They are usually created inside the javascript files (.js) and use incorrect URL's that previously worked when linked at .Mac but now fail at MobileMe.
Since it is a javascript file a Web browser status bar (bottom of the window) shows a javascript:void URL but a click on the link in our iWeb (and Homepage) pages is not finding the correct Apple server files (they are not part of your iDisk and are hosted on Apple servers).
Odd thing is that some of these URL's do work and others fail. Some do not show the mouse over change (to the pointed finger icon) but clicking in the space where they should appear triggers the javascript.
Someone at Apple will be working late into the night to "fix" what they broke.

No "adjust" button in new iMovie 10.0.6 update

I just updated to the new iMovie 10.0.6 and I used to use the older '11 version with audio effects. Now there is no audio effects options anywhere. I looked up help files and I see everyone has the "adjust" button in the toolbar except me. Ive clicked the video file, audio file and no "adjust" button shows up in the tool bar.

I am in the exact same boat (had issue with 10.0.1, and upgrade to 10.0.2 made no difference). I also receive the same error message (which I saw before and after the upgrade to 10.0.2):
1/26/2014 10:25:36.359 AM iMovie[873]: -[CKiOSSetting initWithContentsOfURL:]: init failed with url "file:///Applications/iMovie.app/Contents/PlugIns/Compressor/CompressorKit.bund le/Contents/Frameworks/Compressor.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/CompressorKit. framework/Resources/Settings/EFB_iOS.plist".
If relevant, I also see the following messages repeated often after the above message:
1/26/2014 10:25:41.336 AM iMovie[873]: AVF error: Perf capability check failed: 0xe00002be
1/26/2014 10:25:41.336 AM iMovie[873]: AVF error: Branch_QT0::pushBits, Context Creation Failed.
Also confirmed that the existance of the plist file and it looks exactly the same
This is extremely frustrating, especially after the release of the fix by Apple (with a fix for this issue specifically mentioned in the change log). For the record, I have also removed iMovie multiple times and re-installed (requiring a 2GB download from the App Store each time).
Since Sharing is a critical feature, it makes iMovie rather useless without it working. Open to any suggestions...

Power button fails to work about 95% of the time

Hello,
I have a Toshiba P205-S6267 that is having a strange issue.
About 95% of the time the power button fails to work when on battery, and it fails 100% of the time when the AC adapter is plugged in.
I am getting pretty stumped on this one and starting to think I may need to replace the 7-button circuit under the power button. Before I spend the $55 to do that, I wanted to see if anyone had any advice for me.
Here are the things I have tried.
- the standard unplug the power / battery and wait a few minutes then plug it back in.
- tried this only on battery, same issue
- tried only on AC, won't power up at all
- checked AC adapter with multimeter and it was outputting the correct voltage (also it keeps the battery charged still)
- removed the keyboard and speaker cover then reseated the 7-button circuit
- cleaned the ribbon cable contacts and reseated the ribbon cable for the circuit
- removed RAM and tried each stick by itself, no change.
I'm kind of lost here. Again, I am probably at a point where I need to replace hardware but I don't want to drop the cash without some kind of verification that I'm not retarded.
Any assistance or advice is welcome. Thank you.

Ah, I've been playing around with this and it seems I was mistaken about the nature of the problem.
It is deterministic, for one. It seemed nondeterministic because the action that makes the glasspane paint() fail is the act of giving focus to the JInternalFrame that the glasspane belongs to.
Why does giving focus to a JInternalFrame disable that frame's GlassPane? I can take focus away from it, and the repaint() method starts working again.

6.0.5 adjust button not working

i updated to iphoto 6.0.5
now the adjust button does nothing. it doesn't bring up the adjust sliders. i selected a photo, clicked the edit button,then tried the adjust button== nothing happened.

Actually this may not be caused by iPhoto 6.0.5 at all. I'm not sure what makes this happen, but once in a while, the Adjust panel seems to appear way offscreen. I suspect this because many times I've found an edge of it off the bottom left corner of my screen.
First, check all edges of your screen after you click the Adjust button. If it's still on screen it probably won't come back by itself.
Then try bringing up Effects and other things, and quit iPhoto and launch it again. Sometimes that brings it back.
If none of that works, go to your Preferences (/Users/<your account>/Library/Preferences/ and move the preference file out of there before you launch iPhoto. Then try to bring up the Adjust panel. It should work. You will have to go to each pane in Preferences and make sure all the settings are as you like them.
Then, you can discard the pref file you just pulled out.

CP3 Buttons fail to pause?

I have a captivate 3 project where I have 5 buttons on the time line. All five start at the beginning of the slide, all pause at the same time, all end at the same time. (slide is 2 sec long, buttons pause at 1 sec) If you click on a button all jump to a different slide in the same project. I have about 20 slides set up like this. Problem: random people in my organization have told me that when they get to some of these slides, the project does not pause and just goes to the next slide.
I did a project last year and had no issues like this. I am publishing to use Flash player 9. It seems that people who are using Flash player 9 have more problems that people using Flash player 10. I have replaced every button in the project... I still have failures.
In the past I have had major issues when I have cut and pasted buttons and have stop using that practice.
The project fails when running in our LMS (Pathlore 6.6) but also if I run it outside of the LMS. I as the developer can not get it to fail.
Anyone have any insites?
Thank you.

I hope this may help others.
I still do not know what caused by buttons to fail.
After testing people using Flash player 9 had buttons fail. If they updated to Flash player 10 no failures.
What I did was open a new project and import the one one into the new one and now it works with both Player 9 and 10.
Go figure.

"Adjust" button on iMovie 10.0.7

When using iMovie 10.0.7, I do not have the "Adjust" button for doing picture-in-picture. How can I turn that feature on?

So, in your workflow, step #2 is missing ?
#1: place 2nd clip 'upon' your project
#2:click 'Video overlay settings'
#3: select 'Picture in Picture' ....
… just one PiP per clip is allowed…

Iphoto and adjust button

I have the required system for IPhoto 05. I run a 466 MHz Power PC G4 with 256 MB of SDRAM. However, the adjust button does not appear in the edit mode of Iphoto. I have reinstalled iphoto, but still have no adjust button. Any ideas why? This issue isn't addressed in the iphoto help/installation section. Is it a matter of not enough SDRAM?

Hi Bette,
The only fact I know for certain is it isn't supported for G3 computers.
here are the requirements:
hoto 5 System Requirements
Macintosh computer with a PowerPC G3 (400MHz or faster), G4, or G5 processor
G4 or G5 required for GarageBand software instruments and advanced photo editing in iPhoto 5
256MB of physical RAM (512MB recommended)
Mac OS X v10.3.4 or later
Mac OS X v10.3.6 or later required to work with RAW photos (iPhoto 5)
QuickTime 6.5.2 (included)
Display with at least 1024 x 768 pixel resolution
RAW requires a supported RAW-compatible camera
4.3GB of disk space required to install GarageBand, iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie and iDVD; or 250MB to install iTunes, iPhoto and iMovie only
iPhoto books and prints are available in the US, Canada, Japan, and select European countries
The only other thing I can think of us your window is not large enough to display the icon/icons. Drag the bottom right corner of the window to make it larger, or look and see if you have a menu under >>

Adjust button not appearing on toolbar

I recently installed a new harddrive and installed the operating system on the drive. Everything seems to be working fine except for my iPhoto. All my pictures are pixelated and I do not have an adjust button on the toolbar. Do I have to reinstall everything again?

I have the same problem of mising Adjust and Done buttons, and also Red-Eye is greyed out.
Deleting the com.apple.iPhoto.plist made no difference.
Should I try installing the iPhoto software again? If so, how do I pick this out from the installation discs?

IPhoto 6: Adjust Button won't work

Just installed iPhoto 6 over iPhoto 5 - suddenly my Adjust button has stopped functioning (the new Effects button brings up the relevant panel just fine) - now I have no access to functions such as Sharpen or Saturation. Anyone know how to fix this? Without it iLife 6 has been a waste of my money.

Has anyone experienced the on/off touch button and the brightness touch buttons failing on a 30" cinema screen?

I have a 30" cinema display which is about 3 years old. Everything was working fine yesterday but on reboot today the screen went dim and the brightness buttons did not work. I used the key board and increased the brightness but it went dim again on release. The on/off touch button also did not work.
I have set to disable both of these in the preferences and all is working now but I wondered if anyone else has experience of both of these touch buttons failing. The monitor has been switched off when booting up on a morning but I had not switched it off manually before shut down or set it to do so which I thought was odd. Now I wonder if it was the first signs of a breakdown of the switches on the monitor.
Thanks for any imput in advance.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Buy button fails

When converting from trial version to full teh BUY button fails and reports "Aperture already installed". Must I uninstall and loose the trial library?

Just remove Aperture the application from your Applications folder. Leave the library alone. You will be able to use the library made during the trial period with the purchased app.

Slideshow Start Button...

Why doesn't the slideshow start button in Library mode play the selected music?

The Start Button in the Library module Toolbar is used to start an "Impromptu Slideshow" which is slightly different than a Slideshow module Slideshow. The Impromptu slide show normally requires that you set a default template in the Slideshow module by right clicking on a template and setting it as default. If that template has been selected and if that template has music, it should play.

Windows 7 ThinkVantage and volume buttons fail

I have installed, as a clean install, Windows7 and as a result everything works, except ThinkVantage. The bios portion still works but after boot up the Blue button ThinkVantage and the volume control buttons fail. Is there a solution to this? Hopefully some type of download that I am missing?
Any help is appreciated.
Moderator edit: Added information about the question to Subject.

You didn't say what Thinkpad model you got, but you can find some beta drivers for Win7 using the link below.
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/WIN7-BETA.html
Try to install the system interface driver, hotkey feature set and productivity center. I believe that should fix your problem. Check that the system interface driver is for your thinkpad model. The hotkey software and the producticity center should work for your Thinkpad.
