Slideshows in iPhoto

Is it possible to modify the text slides that I create in my slideshows? Can I adjust the size, font, and location of the text in the slideshow?

  • How can I export a slideshow from iPhoto to iMovie 09.  I try but it only lets me import 211 out of the 311 photos I have in the slideshow.

    How can I export a slideshow from iPhoto to iMovie 09.  I try, but it only exports 211 out of the 311 photos I have in the slideshow I made on iPhoto.

    how do i change the format to the right one?
    Before you can decide what to do, you have to know what you are starting with. Sony MPEG-1 files would be converted one way while DivX or WMV files would likely be handled in another. Extraneous tracks can be removed directly with QT Pro but if you don't have QT Pro then there may or may not be other work around possibilities depending on the specific audio and video compression formats in use. The best place to start would normally be to double-clic the source file in iPhoto to open it in the QT Player. When it opens in the QT Player, check the "Inspector" window to see what it says on the "Format:" lines. This will tell you the type of audio and video content you are dealing with here. Then come and tell us so we can offer some specific conversion solutions.

  • How do i make a slideshow with iphoto for my mother and view on apple TV?

    How do i make a slideshow with iPhoto fo rmy mother and view on my appleTV.  I guess i need to know the best/easiest way.  Do i create a slideshow in iPhoto and then it will automatically pop up on my apple TV Photos?  or is it really not that easy?  i don't want to do airplay......i would like to sit and enjoy it with her.
    m

    icloud sync would only be an option if you login with your appleID
    so think flickr is the easy way

  • Can the slideshow on iPhoto play more than one song during the duration?

    I have put together a slideshow for my grandfathers funeral.  I am trying to put it to music, but it will only allow me to use one song at a time from my iTunes, even after I have made a special playlist for this.  Help, I have to complete this by tonight.
    Thank you!

    As King_Penguin correctly points out that iPhoto slide shows are one track only. But here is how I get around this limitation.
    I purchased Amadeus. It's a music program that lets you record, copy, and edit music files. I make copies of all the songs I want to use in my slide show then combine them into one file in Amadeus. If you want to change music at a specific slide it can get a little tough figuring out the timing but it can be done.
    Once you have the single music file arranged the way you want, save it and import it into iTunes. I find it best to make a new playlist with just the new file included. Then select the new playlist for your slideshow in iPhoto.

  • When making a slideshow in iPhoto some iTunes files can no longer be found (cannot find link). How can I relink iphoto to the moved itunes files?

    Hello everyone :-)
    I am Using Iphoto 09 ver 8.1.2 & itunes ver. 10.2.2 in this situation.
    I have recently moved my iphoto library & Itunes library files to a large external hard drive.
    I have successfully set the computer to read / run both libraries from the hard drive & they are working well as a stand alone. ( I Have done this before)
    Unforntualey this time I foolishly moved some itunes album folders around from compulations / various artists into the main media file before checking into what the ramifications would be.
    After searching on here I learned that was not advised as itunes would not be able to automaticly find them since I moved them.
    In itunes clicked on some of the exclamtion marks of the songs that I moved & linked them up to the main media folder so they could be now found by itunes. I believe itunes asked to look there in that location for all missing files & I selected that option.
    It appears to have worked as when I click on them in itunes they now play.. yeah!
    But now I am finding that when I try to add certain songs for slideshows in iphoto & imovie that those moved songs cannot be found by those programs :-(
    ( I assume the same would be true for iDVD)
    So my questions are... Is there now a way to have those other programs find the moved songs?
    I do have a older backup of my itunes media & I can try & move the album folders back to the original place they where by comparing the two but it is a very large library of 40k songs... so I thought to ask the knowledge & wisdom of the community before I attempted any further fixes.
    It would take a bit of time but it could be done & I don't want to just use the older copy of my itunes as I have made many additions of albums to the library & added allot of album artwork as well. (Stuff that "itunes" & "tune up" couldn't automatically find)
    Thanks in advance for any advice on this silly mistake I made.
    Sal

    Try the following:  delete the iPhoto preference file, <b><i><font color="maroon">com.apple.iPhoto.plist</font></i></b>, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    Also delete the com.apple.iApps.plist file from the same Preferences folder.  Then launch iTunes and then iPhoto.  See if that will restore the links.

  • Slideshow in iphoto, once shared send to idvd, becomes lower quality

    Hello,
    I made a slideshow in iphoto 8.1.2 that looks great, using the "snapshot" theme. I need to be able to play this in a regular dvd player attached to a tv. I hit share > send to idvd.
    In idvd 7.0.4, I set up my menu page (used "shelves" theme), set my show to loop and then previewed everything, and the resolution looks like crap compared to the original slideshow from iphoto. I haven't even put it on a dvd yet, because I figure if the resolution looks worse in idvd preview than in iphoto preview, I need to resolve that before burning.
    Within idvd, my project preferences are set to ntsc, professional quality encoding, and single layer dvd type. I just noticed now my preferred dvd burning speed is set to maximum possible, so maybe that's the problem. But before I try again, is there anything else I should do differently to maintain the original image quality from iphoto?
    My knowledge level of both macs and ilife is very basic, so please keep that in mind with any replies.
    Thanks so much,
    Tony

    Hi Zeravla
    Welcome to Apple Discussions. Sorry to hear about the loss in resolution when working with slide shows within iDvd. You're not the first member on this forum to experience this. It's the nature of the beast (sorry to say) when working with Standard Definition and then burning to Dvd-R. iDVD makes DVDS, which are by definition "standard definition" / SD. Keeping this in mind, here are a few suggestions on the following threads /discussions already covered within this forum:

  • Urgent advice needed for exporting a slideshow in iPhoto '09

    hi,
    what is the best setting for exporting a slideshow from iPhoto '09?
    I'll be burning it with iDVD and it will be watched on a large flat screen TV.
    I WAS GOING TO USE THE .MOV option with the default settings but should I use the DV settings?
    I've only got time to try it once.
    thanks

    Honestly there is no answer for that until you do it. A mov will work perfectly fine. But there are variables: The quality and sharpness of the original photos. How they survive being compressed to a mov, how that mov survives being compressed to DVD format. The quality of the DVD player (and no, they are not all the same) and finally the crispness of the screen. If all goes well, yes it will look perfectly good. But you're not going to know until you do it.
    Regards

  • 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: 2 then how can i export them?
    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.

  • I have built a slideshow in iPhoto -- I need/want the file in .mp4 format.  How do I do that?

    Ok, I don't know why I am here, but!
    I have built a slideshow in iPhoto -- I need/want the file in .mp4 format.  How do I do that?
    The question may have been answered somewhere but I was sent here -- so her I am.
    Still I think I need my slideshow in .MP4 format to play on windows/smartTVs and the .m4v file that export offers seems to be the only option and it fails.
    I am using iPhoto v9.5.1 on a Macbook Air.
    help.

    Try changing the extension to .m4v and see if that will do the trick.  It did for me on another occasion where it wouldn't play as .MP4.  If it works it's a simple solution.
    I compared an .m4v and an .MP4 file in Qujicktime Player via the Winde ➙ Show Movie Inspector menu and both were  the same codec:
    H.264, 1280 × 720, Millions
    AAC, Stereo (L R), 44.100 kHz
    Check to see what codec the Movie Inspector window shows.

  • Cannot change title slide in slideshow on iPhoto

    Made a slideshow in iPhoto, I cannot change the default text on the title slide

    I also have iphoto 11 and as I too cannot figure out why my mac will not play music other then the theme music for that slideshow, as I can add from my itumes libabry it will not play the music though I am able to place it.  It also cannot be heard nor previewed to hear in the list.  ANyone else having this issue as to me for now it is useless to even select a slideshow if you cannot pick music we have to be played.  I also have the latest operating system Mavericks, so what am I doing wrong as I know how to use the program, though it is just not working well with the music.  Yjamls if anyone can help me solve this.  Much appreciated.

  • I cannot export a slideshow from Iphoto to iTunes

    I am trying to export a slideshow from iphoto to itunes so that I can burn it to a dvd.  The automatically sent to itunes is checked but the export button is not highlighted.

    You are asking about a slideshow in iPhoto on your Mac, right? Then the iLife > iPhoto forum would have been the right one to ask your question. This forum is for iPhoto on IOS devices.
    The automatically sent to itunes is checked but the export button is not highlighted.
    The "Export" button will become active, when you select a size for your exported movie. Press one of the sizes , for example "Large", if you want to view the movie on your iPad or Apple TV.

  • Can't make a slideshow with iPhoto. Won't play and export Slideshow is gray

    I'm trying to export an album to a slideshow in iPhoto '09 and cannot. Whenever I select the "Slideshow" option, it turns gray like in a click and hold, but stays gray and the the box never flips over to Slideshow.
    Also, when I click the slideshow button at the bottom of an event or album, it just sits there. The program doesn't freeze, but it doesn't start a slideshow. Under the "File" menu, "Close Window" is my only selectable option. When I select it, the screen fades to black, comes back, and then closes the program.
    Has anyone else come across this problem and (preferably) come across a solution?
    Thanks!

    First try the easy fix: delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, launch iPhoto and try again.

  • Problems with slideshows in iPhoto version 9.6

    How can I make slideshows in iPhoto without music? Even if I do not make a check mark for music, music is played during the slideshow. The music (not from my own library) is very loud and irritating. Other settings that I have made, for example transitions and display- time per photo, also change when the slideshow starts. It seems that the settings (Themes, Music and Settings) are not saved, and the computer make its own choice.
    I use iMac 2,9 GHz Intel Core i5 - 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 - NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 1024 MB - OS 10 Yosemite version 10.10.1.
    iTunes is version 9.6 (910.29).
    I have recently updated my software.
    Any answer to my problems?
    Thank you.

    Even if I do not make a check mark for music, music is played during the slideshow.
    Did you press the "Choose" button, after you disabled the checkmark for music? Otherwise it will still be enabled.
