The slideshow feature in iPhoto: Can we record or create a file of it?

one month into my first Mac and I keep get blowing away by its features. Today I started using the iPhoto and imported all my pictures from my pc into it.
WOW
from a dry, dumb, still pictures, using the iPhoto's slideshow tool, I can now have a slideshow so professional that it makes me look like a hot shot director... what with the music and all that as the slideshow runs.
BUT
Can I convert the slideshow into a video file or something so I can upload it on my blog?
PLEASE PLEASE SAY IT IS POSSIBLE AND easy to do this...
(sorry for the caps... am too excited by seeing the slideshow effects in iPhoto)

That's very simple...Under "file" choose Export. Choose the resolution/screen size, hit ok. Save to your desktop or somewhere else, then hit export button. A Quicktime movie will be produced and you're set and ready to put this moviejust about anywhere. Good luck.

  • The slideshow feature in iphoto 9.5.1 not working properly

    The slideshow feature in iphoto 9.5.1,does not start at the first slide no matter what I do

    You're running the slideshow directly from an album or an Event, correct.  This has been a problem for a number of users and there's not been a fix discovered.
    Many found that creating the slideshow in the slideshow mode will eliminate that problem.
    Give us details.

  • I cannot select the shuffle feature in Iphoto slideshow.  Can some one help?

    I cannot select the shuffle feature in Iphoto slideshow.  Can some one help?

    I would like to use an external monitor (plasma tv) with my MacBook Pro also, which has a resolution 1365x768 - a resolution which is not available under the Display Preferences. I can use the plasma at a 4:3 radio resolution, but I don't see ANY 16:9 radio resolutions available.
    Have you found a solution to this yet?

  • Just updated to Iphoto 9.1.3 but the slideshow feature not working

    Just updated to Iphoto 9.1.3 but the slideshow feature not working at all. Screen goes white but any features selected, nothing is produced .The themes preview windows are blank too. is there something missing?

    Sounds like it.
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • Can you SLOW down the presentation of the Slideshow feature?

    Just published my first Web site with iWeb -- great program. However, I find the Slideshow feature for the photo album page a little kwerky -- sometimes it works, other times it stalls, even after I decreased file sizes to under 100K.
    When it does work the rate that it presents the photos is too fast for my purpose. Is there any way I can slow it down?

    Check out Bob's posts in this thread. He has implemented a little pulldown menu in which you can select the interval used in the slideshow!

  • Some of the new features of iPhoto 8 (09)

    The following are some of the new features of iPhoto 8 that are not publicized on the Apple iPHoto site:
    1 - iPhoto 8 now will open directly the library that you double click on instead of opening the last opened library.
    2 - it has a new option in the rebuild window, *Rebuild Library Database from automatic backup*. With luck that might just make the need for my Automator workflow to backup the Library6.iPhoto database file obsolete. Let's hope so.
    3 - all MobileMe galleries published will automatically be included in all iPhoto Libraries.
    4 - when you move your cursor over a thumbnail image there is a small "i" in the lower right hand corner that, when clicked on, opens the Info window for that photo. There you can assign a location via Google.
    5 - upon launching iPhoto with the Option key depressed a window will open that will list all iPhoto libraries on your boot drive and all connected HDs except that used for Time Machine. It will also list any folder containing a Library6.iPhoto file. So if you have a backup copy of the dB file in a folder somewhere on your HD that folder will be displayed in the list of available libraries to open.
    As a general note I've found that iPhoto Library Manager will work with iPhoto 8 (09) as far as selecting the library to open. I haven't tested the copy, merge or rebuild features as yet.
    That's about I've come across in the short time I've been experimenting with it. *By far the best new feature IMO is No.2 above.*

    Did you mean to put this one in the iPhoto forum?

  • CS 3 Bridge crashes / freezes when trying to run the slideshow feature

    A while back I deactivated Photoshop CS3 that was installed on my laptop. Then this past week I went to reinstall it again. One thing I noticed was that the PS-CS3 and Bridge Icons were still residing on my desktop. I went into the "add/remove programs" and sure enough there was PS-CS3 sitting there. So I tried to do an uninstall first. When I clicked the tab to do a remove program it just sat there. I contacted Adobe Tech support and they sent me the script to to an uninstall. It worked, the Icons went away and so I proceded to do a new install. I entered the serial numbers and activated it and all seemed well. Then I went into the Bridge, everything seemed ok there too. I was able to use the RAW converter, view thumbnails and the rest. Then I went to a specific folder where I had some files that were converted to JPEG to run the slideshow feature. That is when Bridge hung up and a few seconds later it closed the preview window that had opened for the slideshow preview.
    Does this have something to do with the amount of RAM on my laptop? Or maybe the cache? I ask because I had never needed to use the slideshow feature until now and everthing seemed ok even prior to uninstalling and reinstalling.
    I have 1 gig or ram... the hard drive is 350 gigabytes and there is a ton of room still available. The processor is ok. Oh also, I have Lightroom 2 installed on this machine too and it's slideshow feature runs fine. But I would prefer to use the slideshow feature in bridge.
    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated

    Copy the jdev_home/jlib/redist/uix2_install.zip file to
    jdev_home/jdev/redist folder . It will overwrite an existing uix2_install.zip file.
    Close and open the Jdeveloper IDE. It will prompt you for upgradation of projects. Press OK button in response.
    Now you should be able to run the JSP pages.

  • Warning when trying to launch application over mapped drive "We can't verify who created this file. Are you sure you want to run this file?"

    We have 2 load balanced application servers that map drives with programs on them for users from a central server that are giving the warning "We can't verify who created this file. Are you sure you want to run this file?". Basically how it works
    is a user logs in to one or the other application servers (for example, 10.0.0.1 or 10.0.0.2) and runs a log on script that maps an L:\ drive to the users folder on the central storage server (10.0.0.100). When the user goes to launch the .exe from the L:\
    drive it presents that warning.
    I've looked around and have seen recommendations that you need to add the site to the local intranet zone for IE, but when I try to add L:\ it tells me that I have entered an invalid sequence. It appears that you can only put network shares in that location,
    which is not how we're mapping the drive.
    Has anyone run in to this before and knows how to resolve it?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    A mapped drive letter is not supported so please try to input \\server or \\server\folder to see if it will help. 
    If you have any feedback on our support, please send to [email protected]

  • 10.5.5 Can't open previously created Illustrator files!!

    I've recently updated to 10.5.5 and now I can't open previously created Illustrator files, prior to the update, I had no problems. I get the error message- can't open the illustration with an OK box which, when clicked, opens the document in preview mode, but I can't do anything with the document!
    Anyone else have this problem?

    That implies that you didn't preserve a bootable backup/clone as strongly suggested in

  • Can changes be made to the Slideshow feature in iWeb?

    Dear Forum,
    Regarding the iWeb slide show feature.
    (1)How can I have iWeb open this slideshow in the centre of the screen as opposed to the top left?
    (2) How can I turn off the reflection?
    (3) How can I change the existing black background colour to white?
    Thanks for any advice
    Cheers,

    You can do a lot of customizing but you must know a little about html code.
    Some of the files are served from Apple (not inside your iDisk) so you would have to copy them and edit the html code to point to your edited version.
    http://www.mac.com/1/slideshow/scripts/launcher.js
    Holds the code your the display of the slide show. You can edit this file with any plain text editor.
    Not for the faint of heart and republishing or updating your iWeb pages may revert to the older files.

  • Music with new slideshow feature in iphoto 6

    First of all where did the old feature of clicking play for a quick view of your pictures go? Secondly when I create a slideshow the music (itunes icon) won't let me select songs from my itunes if they are in a folder--if I click on recently added or even library --gone is the ability to then chose a song from that folder?
    any ideas?
    thanks

    It's been replaced with the Play button at the bottom
    of the Organize/thumbnail window. It allows you to
    play a slideshow, with the slideshow options, of any
    photos you've selected without creating a slideshow.
    It's the old quick play button on steroids.
    blockquote align="left">
    Part of my question has been answered. I just made my iphoto screen bigger and voila --podcasts and play button appear--so that is solved --thank you
    However I still can't select the song I want to play with a slideshow. If I'm in settings and I go to music and click on the library folder in the list it gives it doesn't then show me all of my songs? If i click play it will play the first song in my library?
    thanks for your time

  • How can i transfer the entire itunes program (not the library,but the actual program itself) from one cpu to another? I have the older version that has the slide feature. I can't stand the new itunes.

    HOW CAN I TRANSFER THE ITUNES PROGRAM ( NOT THE LIBRARIES,BUT THE ACTUALLY EXE PROGRAM ) FROM ONE CPU TO ANOTHER. I CAN'T
    STAND THE NEW ITUNES. I WANT TO TRANSFER MY OLD ONE THAT STILL HAS THE SLIDER FEATURE. THANKS

    Sounds like you've already installed iTunes 11 and are now trying to downgrade. To do so successfully you will also need access to a pre-upgrade copy of your library as set out below...
    The main differences between iTunes 11 and earlier versions are the loss of coverflow and ability to have multiple windows open.
    In Windows, you can restore much of the look & feel of iTunes 10.7 with these shortcuts:
    ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
    CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar
    CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
    CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
    Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
    If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album (Grid) view use Edit > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.
    With iTunes 11.0.3 you can enable artwork in the Songs & List views from View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) making it more like the old Album List view.
    If you still feel the need to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and supporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.
