Slideshow...setting order of pictures

I am having a difficulty finding how to edit the sequence order of the photos for a slideshow. I do not want them to play in the order in which they were shot. I also realize that they have to download from the hard drive into the iPod in the order I want prior to the download. Despite re-naming the photos in numeric order that I want....they load into the ipod into what appears an unpredictable order.
Am I supposed to use some external software to organize these or can I use Windows Media (Pictures and Fax Viewer)?
Thank you,
Mark

hi Dmarque,
You are posting in the wrong forum. You need to go to the iPod for Windows forums and then pick the model iPod for Windows forum.

Reversing order of pictures in slideshow

I am about to make a dvd slideshow and would like to know how to reverse the order of pictures in iphoto so that they apear in the right order in idvd slideshow

In iphoto, I would set up an album, even if it is only temporary, to hold the photos that you want to be in the slideshow. In iphoto you then select which option to use for sorting the photos inside that album. For example, By Name, By Date, etc. If all else fails, you can arrange them manually inside of that album. In idvd then, you can drag the whole album into the slide show sorter from the media menu. As idvd imports the photos and creates the thumbnails they should come into idvd in the same order that they were in iphoto. At least they do for me.

Just purchased a new iMac and transferred all info from my old iMac. Now when using iPhoto slideshow is displays the pictures in reverse order.

There's a bug in iPhoto 9.5.1 and Mavericks that affects slideshows played directly from an album. The slideshow will not play correctly if the photos have been sorted manually. Any other type of sort, date, rating, keyword or title, will play correctly.
If you need that manual sort of pictures for your slideshow create the slideshow in iPhoto's slideshow mode.

I created an album in iPhoto and every time I click on slideshow it plays the pictures backwards from the order in the album. How do I change that?

When running a slideshow from an album it will not run properly if the photos are sorted manually. Sort them by any of the other options, title, date, rating, etc. and it will play correctly.
Send a report of the problem to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.
If you must sort them manually create the slideshow in the slideshow mode in iPhoto, not from an album.

IPhoto Slideshow set to Music - Music Played Only on "Authorized Computers"

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X, v 10.5.8, iPhoto '08 v 7.1.5 (378). I made a slideshow picture presentation set to music and exported from iPhoto to a folder on my desktop in .mov format. iPhoto notified me that the three songs set to the picture slideshow would only be able to be played on "authorized computers." This slideshow needs to be distro'd to my entire class, none of which are authorized users of my iTunes account. How do I bypass this so they will all have access to the music I set to the slideshow presentation?

Use music that doesn't have a DRM on it.
The problem arises because the these three tracks were purchased on the iTuns store and they are limited by the (then) licence on the store.

"Set the Desktop Picture" command does not work in certain instances

I've decided to take a try at using automator. Anyways I've created a very simple workflow.
Get Specified Finder Items (points to an image file)
Set the Desktop Picture
Now this usually works when the desktop is set statically to a specified image. But when I set the desktop to change the picture periodically, the automator action fails to change the picture to the specified image, when executed.
Is this a bug? Is there any workaround for this?

Your workflow actually is changing the static desktop picture, it's merely failing to then switch off the "Change picture" feature.
The "Change picture" feature has a somewhat misleading name in that it's not actually changing your static desktop picture at all. Your static desktop picture remains in place as a new dynamic picture layer is continually drawn and redrawn directly on top of it.
I don't see any way of testing for or turning off the desktop slideshow automatically, short of writing a GUI AppleScript that opens System Preferences and clicks through to the relevant toggle setting. If you file feedback with Apple they might take a look at it.

How do you prevent the organizer from mixing the order of pictures when down loading off the memory card?

This sounds like you are using Photoshop Elements, and the Photoshop Elements forum would be best at answering that.

Photos will not allow me to set the key picture for the album or event

Photos will not allow me to set the key picture for the album or event - it is set to grey !
Anyone else had this and found why ?
new PHOTO app replacing iPhoto bugs/ Problems OTHER PROBLEMS :
- no longer has a five star rating system
- my keywords for selecting albums are gone.
- cannot copy location of one photo to another
- cannot have an album with keywords AND rating > a value
- cannot set key photo of album/event
- multi parameter search feature gone
Anyone got any ideas how to get around this terrible downgrade of the software ?
BTW I have just discovered that iPhoto and its' libraries are still there, so I can go back but be left behind and frozen in time on this version if I do.
Photos now take up 700Gb whereas it was 350Gb #@!$#@!@#!@#
Thanks

That are all good points - but Photos is a completely new application. and it is only version 1.
Continue to use iPhoto, girraween; the next update to Photos will probably add a few more features.
iPhoto 9.6.1 is working very well with MacOS X 10.10.3.
The migration let iPhoto installed and also your iPhoto Library will still work with iPhoto.
If you did not uninstall iPhoto, it will still be there in your Applications folder. And if you had updated to the latest version iPhoto 9.6.1 before you upgraded to MacOS X 10.10.3, you can simply drag iPhoto back to the Dock from your Applications folder and continue to use it. Double click iPhoto and confirm, that you want to open iPhoto and not Photos. It is not compulsory to use Photos, while it it still the first release. When you launch iPhoto, you will see a warning, that the iPhoto Library has been migrated to Photos, but simply click the "Open iPhoto" button.The library will still work with iPhoto. ()see: If Photos won't open a library that you already migrated - Apple Support
If your iPhoto version is not iPhoto 9.6.1, you need to update it.
See this User Tip:
Usually it will work to reinstall instead of updating:
Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS... | Apple Support Communities
The main idea is to move the iPhoto app to the Trash, so Spotlight does not see it as installed, reload the AppStore, and then to try to download again from the App Store - from your Purchases tab, not from the main page, since you can neither buy iPhoto nor update it, but you can reinstall, if your AppleID is associated with it.
Meanwhile you may want to send a feature request to Apple using the feedback form. Apple - Photos - Feedback
I hope, Apple will listen and add more features to Photos to make it usable for large Photo Libraries.

In Photos, how can one control the order of pictures in an album?

Is there any way, in Photos, to control the order of pictures in an album? Is there any way to sort, or order things manually?

Thanks. Let me refine my question as follows: is there a way to keep the manual order in albums that I had in iPhoto when transferring to Photos?

How to change the order of pictures on Apple TV

The pictures shown on the TV are not in date/time or file number order. How do you change the order of the pictures on the screen?

I have struggled with this last year. The sort order of pictures is different in iPhoto, iPad, Apple TV. There are some tricks to get the desired order, but I never managed to get this consistent. The Apple TV has no option for sorting unfortunately.
Maybe things are better now, but I have given up on showing photos using iTunes.
Nowadays I am streaming photos from my NAS and I can show them in any order I want.

Can't save "Play music during slideshow" setting in iPhoto 6

Hi,
I just bought and installed iPhoto 6 today as an upgrade to iPhoto 4. I've discovered that I'm unable to save the "Play music during slideshow" setting in the dialog which appears when I click the "Play" button from the thumbnail screen to play a slideshow. If I uncheck this checkbox and then click on the "Save Settings" button, the next time I play a slideshow, the music starts up again. The most particularly annoying thing about this problem is that I'm trying to create a slideshow that plays no music, and I have to continually uncheck the "Play music during slideshow" checkbox each time I play the slideshow. Has anyone else run into this problem, and is there a solution or workaround for it?
Thanks,
Ken

Hi,
I think I've figured out what's going on here, but I don't know how to fix it. While I was playing around with the items in the "Play" dialog that appears when you initiate a slideshow, I discovered that if I uncheck the "Play music during slideshow" and then change the selection in the tree of folders underneath the checkbox, that the checkbox becomes selected. This would normally be the considerate thing to do, since if the user were making a selection in that tree, it would be rather "rude" in a software sense to not check the checkbox automatically. Unfortunately, in this case, the logic doesn't seem to be looking at the Preferences flag which (correctly, I think) is remembering that I don't want music to be played. So what I think is happening is when this dialog is first instantiated, the checkbox setting is remembered correctly. However, what happens next is that the saved selection in the folder tree is then restored, which then triggers the "a tree selection was just made, so let's check the checkbox" event. This is why if you've saved the "don't play music" setting, the checkbox is initially cleared, and then when the tree selection is set, the checkbox becomes checked. If I save the settings with the checkbox checked, the checkbox is set from the instant the dialog appears. So assuming that this is what's happening, is it possible to fix this by editing the NIB file using the Developer Tools? Or is this logic embedded in the compiled code?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
