Slideshow using Quicklook?

I recently upgraded to OS X Lion on my MacBook Pro. I'm trying to use the instant slideshow option with the quicklook button, but it isn't working. Previously, and what help says it should do, is select the images you want and press spacebar. Then the slide show buttons should appear, and you have the option of clicking to full screen. But now the buttons don't appear ... Any ideas?

  • I have a 4K monitor and want to see a full screen slideshow using the jpeg generated when I "save" a raw file in the raw converter.

    I have a 4K monitor (actually a 50 inch Samsung TV).  Looking at my daily photographs on this monitor is astonishing, wonderful, etc. but there is one fly in the ointment so to speak.  With previous monitors when I selected slideshow I could get a full screen "fit or fill" slideshow that I used for grading my images.  My initial work flow all happens in Bridge and Camera Raw.  It goes like this: I download my raw files using Bridge.  In the thumbnail view I delete all the obviously bad images.  Then using Bridge I open each raw file using my preferred presets for sharping and such.  If I like the image I "Save" it to the same folder as a full sized maximum quality JPEG. 
    Now we get to the part that doesn't work.  At this point I usually start a full screen slideshow and rate each of the JPEGs I have saved.  What I see is a 1920 x 1080 preview image blown up to full screen size which of course looks awful.  Why can't I just view a slightly reduced JPEG image created on the fly by Bridge.  I guess I could tell Bridge to create 3840 x 2160 previews and they would display correctly, but that would be a big hit on disk space.
    When I run slideshow using the 1080 pixel preview, I can click on the preview I click on the displayed image and start a full resolution slideshow of the saved JPEGs but the outer edges of the image are not viewable because the image has not been reduced to fit on the monitor screen. 
    Does anyone know how I can get Bridge to show a full screen slideshow using the saved JPEGs?

    Sounds like a driver issue. I never tested in bridge, so I could be wrong. But it sounds to me that when you are connected to that screen, your settings are not set to the full resolution of that screen.

  • I have created a slideshow using i Photo. How do I burn it to disc so that I can play it on my DVD?

    I have created a slideshow using i Photo.
    How do I burn it to disc to play on a DVD.
    I cannot access i DVD.
    Is this the problem?
    I have exported the slideshow as a movie quick time file.
    What do I do next???

    If your Mac is a new one, like mine, then it comes with a version of iLife that doesn't have iDVD and if so, there isn't an easy way to burn a DVD from iPhoto or iMovie that will play on a normal DVD player.  There is quite a bit of correspondence about this, but I couldn't find a good answer, apart from this:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/18460085#18460085
    I ended up buying (via Amazon) a boxed version of iLife11, which has all the same software I already have, but with a copy of iDVD with it. 
    Seems to work well with iMovie, but at the moment, my copy of iPhoto has crashed - see:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/18943719#18943719
    Having only just transferred from a Windows machine to a Mac, it seems incredibly arrogant for Apple to think people don't use DVD players anymore. 

  • How can i control the timings of my slideshow using iphoto on my ipad

    Q: 1 how can i control the timings of my pupil's slideshows using iPhoto on the iPad?

    Q: 3 how can i combine them from 8 individual slideshows to 1 for showing to their parents at an assembly?
    many thanks in anticipation of your collective help

    Here's my take on the same thing:
    Short answer: the dpi is set when you decide what size you're printing at.
    Long Answer: Dpi means nothing in the digital world of your computer. There are no "inches" to have "dots per..." Size is measured in pixels. That's the same on your camera. It doesn't take 10 x 8 or 6 x 4 shots. It takes shots measured in megapixels. For instance 4,000 x 3,000 is a 12 megapixel camera.
    Using that example, that shot from that camera has 12 million pixels. So that's how many "Dots" there are. To decide the ratio of dots per inch, you now need to decide the "inches" part. And that's printing. Print at 10 x 8 and the dpi will be 4,000/10 or about 400 dpi. At 6 x 4 then it's 4,000/6 or 660 dpi. Work the other way: Print at 300 dpi and the resulting image will be about 13 inches on the longer side.
    So, your photo as a fixed number of pixels. Changing the dimensions of the print will vary the dpi, changing the dpi will vary the dimensions of the print.

  • Help with very advanced slideshow using imovie?/idvd?/iphoto?

    I am trying to create a more advanced slideshow for the first time, and I need some advice on how to manage my project and the order in which to use (if to use) the various applications (iphoto, idvd, imovie). I've been in all of them trying to figure out the best format to use, as each of them have certain features I'd like to incorporate into my slideshow. It gets a little confusing since this is all new and I just don't know how to approach it. If anyone has experience with all of these programs, maybe you could give me some suggestions on how to get the most out of what is available. Here is what I'd like to do:
    I have a 4 minutes song from itunes which I want to use with a slide show of about 30 pics (whatever is a reasonable amount).
    FX features (a sound effect at beginning before song and maybe some of the cool video affects on a few of the photos (in addition to Ken Burns )
    Ken Burns zoom like an animated slideshow
    Use a theme (preferably one from idvd as it seems to have more to choose from.
    Since it is only one slideshow, I don't need the confusion of all the zones to import clips into, so I'd like to keep it simple. While I want to keep it simple, I'd like to have some sort of preview in the beginning with the cool stuff imovie offers like the title floating in etc..
    So my problem is, I just don't know how to get all of these affects into one slide show because I'm training myself on bits ad pieces of each one, but I don't where to start (magic imovie, magic idvd, start from scratch idvd, or just slide show to import to idvd). I 've tried them all, but I can't figure a way to get more affects as each one has something different. Not sure if this makes sense, but I've trying so hard to get this right (for a Xmas gift) and I'm going in circles trying to keep it all straight. So, if this is possible, I would really appreciate help as to the best way to approach it. Thank you.

    Hi n
    You have one day more for Your project than in Sweden as Santa has to start
    somewhere and home is close. (We start at about 15.00 24 of dec).
    I would start with - if the music is bought from iTune store (a fix for a known
    problem) to save it out as an audio CD (.aiff) else it will look OK till You try
    Your DVD disk = No sound.
    Then I would start a new iMovie project and from media button select photos
    and drop one start photo from iPhoto down into timeline. Then I would import
    the music from the new CD.
    Cont to put photos one at a time into timeline. Change duration so that they
    match the tempo in Your movie.
    Transitions
    Effects
    etc.
    Save from time to time to keep safe.
    When the "movie" is done - close iMovie and open iDVD and drop Your movie
    project icon into this - or - use the import function in iDVD.
    DON'T Share/Export from iMovie to iDVD - it will destroy Your movie by a bad
    rendering work. iDVD does this so much better.
    I don't know any way to use the "themes" in iDVD into iMovie. Sorry
    Merry Christmas !!!
    Yours Bengt W

  • Making & Burning Slideshow using 'slideshow' at bottom of iPhoto Library?

    Hello. I would appreciate if someone can help me from beginning to finished product of making a slideshow using for example the Snapshot effect and music from iTunes.
    I will go over in point form to the point where I am unable to proceed any further:
    1--I select pictures in iPhoto.
    2--I click on 'slideshow' at the bottom of the iPhoto page.
    3--I click on 'themes' and select 'snapshots'.
    4--I click on the iTunes icon in slideshow and choose music.
    This is as far as I have been able to go as I dont see anything that
    will allow me to transfer this to DVD.
    I am making a 100th birthday slideshow and hope someone can assist me on this. Thanks.

    Go to the Share menu at the top and select the iDVD option. When you've completed the iDVD project save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option.
    This will separate the encoding process from the burning process. Mount the disk image and play it with DVD Player. If it plays OK the encoding was good. Now burn to disk with Disk Utility at the slowest speed possible to get the best quality burn.

  • Slideshow using dreamweaver CS6

    Have received advice here and created a slideshow using jQuery Cycle2. Loaded own images and working fine on a dreamweaver blank page.
    When I load onto a fill page as a banner heading the slideshow reverts to 3 or 4 separate images. Any ideas please?

    Sorry. Should have come back earlier. Any chance you could look at code in

  • Adding audio to a Video CD slideshow using Toast

    I have been able to create a Video CD slideshow using Toast Titanium 7.0. Has anyone successfully been able to add audio to a VCD slideshow? If so exactly how did you do it. The Toast help files were no help. They instructed me to use the application Motion Pictures which comes bundled with Toast. I was able to create a slideshow with audio with this application but could not figure out how to import it into Toast.

    1. I suggest you post all questions concerning the use of Toast to Roxio's own Discussion Groups. That's where you will find the ardent Toast gurus. This isn't the "Using Roxio Toast" Discussion.
    2. See also the "Other links" section of my my "VCD and SVCD Players" FAQ. That section contains links to some other sources of VCD/SVCD hints, tips, etc.
    Good luck!

  • IPhoto 9.4.3 - Can't export slideshow using Quicktime Options

    Hello - I just upgraded to 9.4.3.  I'm a professional photographer and I've always liked using iPhoto to create slideshows for clients.  One of the best features was the ability to customize the export of the slideshows using the Quicktime options.  Things like resolution (1080x720), frames per second, key frame rate, etc, etc.  After "upgrading" I noticed that the only option on a slideshow export is their pre-packaged sizes and no customization possible.  Am I missing something here?  If not, Apple should consider adding this feature back as the settings can make a huge difference in a pro's world. 
    Thanks

    That is peculiar. I am also using 9.4.3. and the "Custom" export button is there.
    If a button is missing for you, that should be there, try if the button is still missing, when you open iPhoto from a different user account, see: Isolating an issue by using another user account
    If the export panel looks o.k. in a different user account, your "Preferences" file may be corrupted. Then remove iPhoto's user preferences.

  • I created a slideshow using lightroom3 with music at 1070p, then put it to both a CD and a DVD.  I cannot play either back on my iMac.  It is jumpy and unusable on playback.  Different Video card needed?  Any Help?

    I created a slideshow using lightroom3 at 1070p with music.  After transferring the slideshow to a DVD I could not play it back on my iMac without a lot of skipping.  Any ideas? Different Video card??

    As I said, I've not used Lightroom (and I tried to find some info on the Adobe website, but they like to make it difficult to find things - the only thing easy to find was the "buy" button LOL).
    I get some pretty good quality - and actually reduce my videos from 1080 to 720p because of the enormous file size, rendering time required, and the fact that I simply cannot tell the difference on my 42" HDTV. My workflow is: create a slideshow in Photo to Movie (I've found that superior to anything else I've tried), add that to my iMovie project (in between video clips, etc), add transitions, titles, or whatever. Export at the highest settings (experimented with different settings on a 30 sec clip) to desktop. Fire up iDVD, customize a theme/menu with videos, music, stills and then add my movie(s). Encode there to highest quality, create a Video TS folder (which will include all the files necessary so you can delete the originals if you want) or burn from there. If I do the folder method, I use Roxio Toast to burn it at the slowest speed available.
    Using that workflow, my movies rock (if I say so myself  ) and have a great quality. And I've never had a coaster.

    Well, you don't have to write down anything. Just click on the message and copy it. Then paste it here, or in a text editor (eg, TextEdit). And you can enter a string like "Audio CD" (w/o the quote marks) in the filter and see only messages containing it.
    mds[71]: (Error) Server: Failed to register path "/Volumes/Audio CD"
    That's the metadata server, used by Spotlight. AFAIK, Spotlight does not index audio CDs, so what is this about? I don't know. Maybe it's the cause of what you observe; or maybe it's another symptom. Thinking again of the network issue… have you maybe installed some third-party software related to both Spotlight and the network (Searchlight perhaps)?

  • IPhoto slideshow using mini-dvi to video adapter

    When using the mini-dvi to video adapter to connect to my widescreen tv (via composite), to show iPhoto slideshows, the transistions between slides dont apear and there are no ken burns effects. The slideshow runs fine on my MacBook display (ie when not conected to the tv), and the is no other distortion or flickering (as reported in other threads), this seems odd to me or is it just a limitation of analogue output.
    2Ghz MacBook, White   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    It means that the issue resides in your existing Library.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Corruption in slideshow using IDVD

    I have a problem I have been trying to resolve for quite some time, without success.
    If I produce a slideshow in Iphoto, import to IDVD, add a nice theme header, burn the show, everything goes normal except for the end product. I end up with small glitches or corruption, guess you could say pixelation of some sort in some of my photo's in the slideshow. The corruption consists normally of small bands of pixelation about 1/4 inch high and three inches long, however, they can be shorter and longer.
    I am using a G4-450mhz AGP machine, upgraded with a 1.5 ghz giga designs processor, new 8x superdrive (Apple firmware), installed full 1 gig of Ram, still using ATI Rage video card. I have tested the machine with the old cpu but still get the corruption, so that isn't it.
    One tip to this problem is that I can take out all the music and the slideshow runs great, no corruption but add back the music and I get it back. Using Mp3's for Audio and I have tried reducing them to very low bit which seems to help but doesn't completely get rid of the corruption.
    Have used all types of DVD names and all do the same. Currently using Imation and Verbatim. Using Ilife 05.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    Believe it or not, I found some DVD-R 1x and 2x Media at CompUSA. I bought the 2x Media because in the past I have had great results with their Media but I haven't seen the 1x or 2x in a while.
    Unfortunately, I tried an IDVD burn and it still had the same ol glitches/pixelation in various parts of the slideshow. So, then I used Toast to burn a disk image at 1x I had no glitches, whatsoever.
    So, what is the problem with IDVD?
    Toast made a great successful burn for me and it plays well on PC or Mac, however, how do you get it to play on a DVD Player for a TV? I get the begining theme but when I try to click to enter the slideshow, I black screen.
    I hate to say, but my PC makes slideshows like a pro with very little effort. I don't understand the big problem here with burn speeds or IDVD having so many problems.
    Anyone have anymore good ideas? Getting pretty close to solving this I hope.

  • Can I create a portfolio slideshow using custom thumbnails?

    Hi. After searching the forums and watching several Lynda tutorials, I can't seem find an answer to my specific question. I'm creating a new portfolio website for myself and for the actual portfolio page, I went ahead and created custom thumbnails for each of the pieces I want to display and gave them all the same rollover state (see the screen capture image below of how I'd like them to look when hovered over).
    I was expecting to be able to use them as a trigger to get a pop-up slideshow, but it appears the only way to do so in Muse is by using one of the pre-existing widgets. I know you can customize the widgets, but I don't see any way I can use the custom thumbnails I already created. Am I overlooking something or can this simply not be done in Muse and I have to change my thumbnail layout to match what the widgets allow?
    And for a secondary question, my portfolio images are all different sizes (depending on the type of design, of course). Do any of the widgets in Muse have the ability to change their size and shape based on the image? Or do I have to make all of the images fit into the same size window?
    Thank you!

    sebrame Thanks for pointing out the compsition widget! I was able to make the gallery with it, without moving my project to dreamweaver! I don't know about your slideshow widget, but for me it doesn't let me to make the triggers different sizes. If you resize one thumbnail, it will resize all of them at the same time. :/
    RimVai wrote:
    @sebrame - I'm aware that it's possible with a composition, but adding about 200 images in my case would be very time consuming compared to if the functionality was readily available in the gallery widget..?
    RimVai Yeah, last week I actually made it with the composition widget - which was truly more time consuming than the slideshow > lightbox widget. But there're actually some little presets making it just a bit less hard with compositions. (You just have to be extra careful when adding the images.)
    You may know these already, but I write them here in case someone who doesn't know happens to read this thread.
    You don't need to add all 200 thumbnails one by one. Just place the composition widget, and then use the "place" tool to add all your images. Click the very first thumbnail box with the place tool: Muse will automatically add all 200 pictures into separate 200 thumbnails that you'll then be able to rezise and move around. The order of the pictures (without broking the link between the lightbox picture and the thumbnail) can be changed after adding the lighbox pictures, by moving the thumbnail object to front or behind within the widget.
    While adding the lightbox image, make 100% sure that you are in the lighbox page of the very first thumbnail, then use the "place" tool again and click the box that should be holding the content of the first thumbnail. It will again place all 200 pictures into the separate lighbox "pages" or whatever they are called. If you were in the box of the first thumbnail, the pictures will now  be in order, and linked to their correct thumbnails.
    I agree, the composition is much more inconvinient to use than the slideshow widget, but in my case I really needed different size thumbnails for my gallery. So for me it was worth the work, I guess. The best thing Muse developer team could do with this, would be to enable the different size thumbnails with slideshow widget as well, but before that happens this was the best option for me.

  • Is it possible to open/start a slideshow using a button on the home page?

    Hi all. I want a slideshow on the home page of my graphic design website, but ideally I want it to pop up 'in place' when a button is pressed (these buttons are for things like 'illustration', 'print design', 'logo design' etc, with each slideshow being a portfolio of images. Is this possible to do? So instead of the buttons each linking to their own page, they link to a slideshow that pops up on screen?
    Let me know if you require further info.

    Yes you can design this.
    Use any composition , trigger can be used as button which would open container on click. In container insert slideshow with images.
    The images used can be linked to their specific pages.
    Thanks,
    Sanjit
