Slideshows in aperture

unable to save for export slide shows??? How do I??

All I need is something simple. After playing with the different dissolves, I still prefer the simple fade in/out. All I need is to be able to match the slides to the length of music selected, which Aperture will do. I never use Ken Burns effects either. I use it to show proofs to a client in a clean and enjoyable way.
Currently I have to create select the images and put them in a separate folder, import them into iPhoto and create the slideshow there. If I can do all this in Aperture, then that'll suit me just fine.
If I need something more sophisticated than that,then I'll have to work as you suggest.

  • I created a slideshow in aperture. How I can share it?

    Is there a way I can share a slideshow from Aperture? I know there are are sharing options like email (file too big), text message (file too big), photostream (can share only as still photos), facebook (not interested), Flikr (not interested).

  • When adding Custom Text to a slideshow in Aperture, I can no longer centre the text in the text box. Is there something I am missing? I am running Aperture 3.6 on Yosemite. Any ideas gratefully received, thanks.

    Which theme are you using?
    When I am adding text in a slideshow, I found, that it will depend on the theme, if the text will be centered or flushed left.  The Classic and Ken Burns theme are centering the text, the newer themes will present it flushed left.
    I found no way to select a custom justification for the text.

  • Slideshows in Aperture 3

    Folks, Two quick questions.  When making a slideshow in aperture 3 how can I get the program to just put my photos in a Random order?  I don't want to manually move them around.  Also, what would you say is the best software for creating energetic music video type slideshows that flow to the beat of the music?

    I think only one of those is a quick question:
    To present your images in random order, copy and edit one of the slide show presets and enable the "Shuffle Slide Order" button - see this paragraph in the Aperture 3 User Manual: Playing Slideshows Using Slideshow Presets
    Also, what would you say is the best software for creating energetic music video type slideshows that flow to the beat of the music?
    In Aperture this would be a lot of work. You would have to adjust the timing of each image to the beat of the music.
    Can you program? Then your best bet would be Quartz Composer (Part of the Developer Tools). With Quartz Composer you can sync the presentation of media to the beat of the music.
    A quick-and-dirty work-around: or create a special iTunes Library and use one of the Music Visualizers to present the slides. For example, build a playlist of small music clips and set your images as cover art of these clips. Then use a music visualizer, that will show large cover art, like iVisualize set to "Rotating CD" or "Now Playing".  For the advanced visualizers to work in MacOS Lion, however, you will have to run iTunes in 32bit mode (at least the last time I tried).
    So the second part of your question is still open for further suggestions

  • Export my slideshow from Aperture (with music) to a CD

    I'm having problems with exporting my slideshow from Aperture. I'm also new to the mac and aperture, so this could be part of the learning curve!
    I would like to export the slideshow (with music) to be played on a non-apple computer via a CD. I see the export options, but they all seem to be specific to other apple products or a TV.
    is it even possible to copy the slideshow to a CD?
    Thanks!

    I see the export options, but they all seem to be specific to other apple products or a TV.
    These export options are just guidelines to pick a suitable resolution and codec. If you pick one of them it will render your slideshow and export a Quicktime movie; then you move this movie to a folder and burn this folder to a CD.
    If you want a movie that can be viewed on a display of anoter computer I'd go for the option with the highest solution and pick the full HD option: HD 1080p. All other options will result in higher compressed videos with less resolution.

  • Is it possible to add or overlay text on an image to be used in a slideshow in Aperture?

    Is it possible to add or overlay text on an image to be used in a slideshow in Aperture v3.2.2? If so how? Thanks.

    Start here.
    Don't miss this:
    Stage 7: Titling and Adding Text to the Slideshow
    Add a title to your slideshow using the titling controls. Insert a blank slide at the beginning of the movie to display your title. You can also use blank slides to act as chapter dividers. Add text to individual slides where appropriate.

  • Slideshow in Aperture 2.1 with music

    I've noticed that when playing music fron an iTunes playlist firstly music plays, after 2 or 3 minutes music starts to playback by jumps and finally iTunes does not play anymore.
    I reboot the system and iTunes plays fine but inside an slideshow of Aperture, music begins to jump again.
    OS X Leopard 10.5.2- 2x3 GHz Quad-Core. 8 GB 667 DDR RAM.
    iTunes 7.6.2. Aperture 2.1
    ANY HELP?

    Have you checked the Audio settings for the audio clips in the film strip? What does the settings show, when you ctrl-click the primary and secondary tracks to reveal the audio adjustments panel? Is the track volume high enough and the fade in and out not too long?
    Do you get any sound at all from within Aperture? For example, when you select a song in the Media Browser to add to the slideshow? Or when you view a video clip in the Browser?
    If all settings are o.k., but you still do not get any sound at all, are there any error messages in the Console window (launch the Console App from Applications > Utilities)?

  • Help with export ?glitch? of my Slideshow from Aperture 3

    when I try to export my Slideshow from Aperture 3 it thinks for a few seconds and then says done - help
    in Aperture 3 (all updates)
    put together a 150 photo slide show
    each slide = 3 seconds
    2 songs added
    Hit "Export..." button
    make selections
    hit "Export"
    three seconds later a dialog box pops up and says "done, your file is in path/path/path" and so on
    File is not there - does not look like it wrote any file - processing would take a lot more than 3 seconds
    I must be missing a check box or radio button somewhere or doing something wrong
    I have tried it several times with many selections re: size and quality but always the same
    HELP??

    Hello David,
    Are you running OS 10.7.2 Lion? Perhaps you have trouble with a video codec? http://aperture.maccreate.com/2011/08/25/aperture-3-will-not-play-videos-if-lion -is-installed-and-3ivx-video-codec-is-installed/
    Look in your System Library and User Library if the 3ivxVideoCodec.component
    is installed.
         Check in /Library/Quicktime  (System Library) and ~/Library/Quicktime (User Library)
    If you are running OS Lion, then the Libraries are hidden by default.
    The User Library can be revealed from the Finder menu by holding down the option (⌥)-key while selecting "GO"  till the Library appears in the drop down menu.
    The System Library can be revealed  from the Finder menu by selecting "GO" -> "Go To Folder" and entering    /Library/Quicktime .
    Look for 3ivxVideoCodec.component installed and remove it, if it is present.
    Also look in both libraries for a duplicate Aperture media browser plug-ins, e.g.
    /Library/Application Support/iLifeMediaBrowser/Plug-Ins/iLMBAperture31Plugin.ilmbplugin/
    if you are running Lion and still have iLMBAperture31Plugin.ilmbplugin, remove it, if
    LMBAperturePlugin.ilmbplugin is present.

  • Is there a way to use music from multiple users itunes libraries on one iMac for a slideshow in Aperture?

    I am trying to put together a slide show for a trip my wife and I took to England. I would like to be able to use music from both our itunes libraries in the slide show. I am using Aperture to create the slide show since it seems to be more versatile than iPhoto for this. Only trouble is that when I log into my username on the iMac I only see my iTunes library and similar when logging into her username. We have different music but would like to use some from each library in the slide show.

    You can only use one library at a time in an Aperture slideshow, so I'd suggest to simply collect the audio that you want to use in a folder (export the songs from both iTunes Libraries) and then import this folder to Aperture. Now you have a project containing the audio files; you will see it in the Aperture Audio section of the audio Browser, right above the iTunes section.
    You can use the Apperture audio just like the audio in iTunes to drag to the timeline of your slideshow.

  • Can I create a large slideshow in Aperture?

    I have about 800 photos I want to make a slideshow in Aperture3.3, add audio, theme. Can this be done, or should I split it up? In the past in iPhoto, iDVD, I have had problems getting large projects to process, they seem to stall. I just recently purchased Aperture, this is my first project. I have USB thumb drive 8GB to transfer the Slideshow to, will this be a problem? I was told I could drag and drop the slideshow to the thumbdrive. We were on a long trip with friends and I want to give this to them as a gift. Thank you for your answer.

    Can I suggest that if you're making a large slideshow then you might be best working in iMovie or a dedicated Slideshow app. You'll have much more fine control over what happens - especially with the sound track and the timings.
    Alternatives to Aperture's slideshow include:
    iMovie, on every Mac sold.
    Others, in order of price: PhotoPresenter  $29
    PhotoToMovie  $49.95
    PulpMotion  $129
    FotoMagico $29 (Home version) ($149 Pro version, which includes PhotoPresenter)
    Final Cut Pro X $299
    It's difficult to compare these apps. They have differences in capability - some are driven off templates. some aren't. Some have a wider variety of transitions. Others will have excellent audio controls. It's worth checking them out to see what meets your needs. However, there is no doubt that Final Cut Pro X is the most capable app of them all. You get what you pay for.

  • Help in export slideshow in Aperture 3

    I had created a slideshow and attached an audio clip. When I preview it Aperture, everything is fine. But after I export it into .mov format(even in Apple TV or 720P) also lose the audio sound. Any suggest?

    If it has DRM, I don't think Aperture will allow you export it, but I just did a test with a song from the iTunes store that did export. (This was only a test: I wouldn't steal someone's music.) I know iTunes store stopped putting DRM on songs sometime ago though. Don't know how to check if it has DRM.

  • Slideshow from Aperture on 2nd Monitor

    Hi:
    I am hoping someone can come up with a solution for me.  I have my photographs in the Aperture library running on my iMac 27".  I have a second monitor connected to the iMac.  I would like to run a continuous slideshow on the second monitor using all the photos in my library, preferably in a randomized manner.  Ideally, this would run independently of Aperture, just drawing the photos from the Aperture library.  If I have to have Aperture running to do this, that's OK too.  Lastly, my ideal would be for the slideshow to be automatically updated as I add new photos into the library.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks, Pete

    Hi Pete,
    The easiest thing to do is use one of the built-in (to OS X) screen-savers.  "Classic" will do what you want.  Of course, there are fancier treatments to chose from.
    You set these at "➞System Preferences➞Desktop and Screen Saver➞Screen Saver".  Your Mac keeps a separate screen saver setting for each monitor.  You can select all the Images in your Aperture Library, or any container in your Library.  You can randomize the order.
    Does that meet your need?

  • Exporting Slideshows with Aperture

    I am a professional wedding photographer just starting to use Aperture.
    I currently deliver DVD slideshows to my clients instead of paper proofs. I use an action and an apple script in Photoshop to batch all the files from a wedding to have a black border around them and display the file name in the black border below the file. I must have the file name because, that is how my clients place there order. I then use DVD Studio Pro to group my slides into groups of 99 and create slideshows with DVD Studio Pro.
    Is there a way to use Aperture to automate this process? I would like to select the images that I want, have Aperture size them for NTSC, display the file name so that it is readable and not cropped out of a standard TV screen, and then create slideshows in iDVD or DVD Studio Pro for me. I would also like to put a signature on the bottom right corner of each photograph.
    I know this is asking a lot, but I REALLY need something like this to speed up my process and bring a new look to my work. Any suggestions?
    Kevin Hawkins

    kevin:
    aperture has automator actions for exporting images from albums (at any one of the export preset sizes). you could, with a little scripting expertise, convert the photoshop applescript that you have now into an autmator action. (i have several automator actions that i've built that feed images into photoshop.) then it would be a matter of building an automator workflow that sets everything up in the right sequence and pressing run.
    if you need help getting this done, visit my web site and on the "about me" page, you'll find some contact info (including email address).

  • How do I get a slideshow from aperture to play on apple tv?

    I can't figure out how to send a slideshow created in aperture to apple tv. Any clues would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hello William
    You would need to export and send the slideshow to iTunes. Once hat is done, make sure that Home Sharing is turned so you can then find the movie in the Computer app and select your computer and find the video there to be played on your Apple TV

  • HT3781 Exporting slideshows from aperture to apple tv

    Does anyone have any tips in terms of producing as good a quality slideshow on a HD Pioneer Elite TV via apple tv?
    I am not able to replicate the resolution of the photos on the tv screen and I presume there is a setting that needs to be changed.
    The movies we rent via itunes to apple tv to the Pioneer TV screen display in lovely HD so I presume there is something I am doing wrong.
    If anyone has a suggestion I would be most appreciative.
    Thank you.

    Without knowing what settings you are using how can anyone say what settings need to be changed?
    So post back with OS and Aperture versions, how you're making the sideshow, what theme and what settings you are using. Also where in the chain does the sideshow drop quality? In Aperture, on your Mac, only at the TV?
    regards
