Trying to make a wedding slide show

I have made my slide show in iDVD... I click burn... It goes thru its process. Then with about a minute left the DVD ejects and the status says done. However, the timer says about a minute left. Nothing is being burned to the disk.. Am I doing something wrong?

Hello, and welcome to the Discussions!
Definitely make a disk image file from your project.
With iDVD open, select 'Save as disk image' from the File menu. The process will look like the burn process, and encoding will take just as long, but the end result is a file replica of your iDVD project, not a burned DVD disk. If the disk image is created successfully, you can burn your DVD disks from that using Disk Utility.
In addition, be sure you are using a good brand of DVD disk--Verbatim, Maxell and Taiyo Yuden are highly recommended.
Also, select a burn speed of 4x or less.
If iDVD cannot successfully create a disk image file, or if you have further questions, post back for more help.

Help! I thought I was pretty good setting up slide shows and adding music. I'm trying to make a new slide show from a great trip to New York. I can get theme music but no music at all from iTunes. Checking my older slide shows, which did play music!

Help! I thought I was pretty good setting up slide shows and adding music. I'm trying to make a new slide show from a great trip to New York. I can get theme music but no music at all from iTunes. Checking my older slide shows, which did play music, it's all gone!
Problem seems to have started after updating to Mavericks.
Is there a box I need to check/uncheck?
Any help very welcome!

Hopefully you've seen the post from Terence Devlin? I've pasted it below.
In iTunes go File -> Library -> Organise Library -> Reorganise Library.
Then quit and restart iPhoto.
Pity Apple didn't either warn us or set up a bug fix!

I just remembered I have a couple of screen snaps online to explain how
it's done:
1. place your base image and name it in the inspector
2. from the smart objects palette grab the head action item, the one
with a question mark in its upper, green half - the 2nd one from the
left. Drop that into the pages head section.
3. in the inspector set the action to run OnLoad and select the base
image that you named in the first step and set the other parameters.
This was done in the days of GL6, but not much had changed in GL CS.
Anyway you might also refer to GL's online help. It describes how to set
up all the actions that ship with GL.

How can i create my BC featured product list in to a slide show for multiple products in one row. i have products aligned in a row i just would like to make it a slide show of the multiple (20) products.

i have products aligned in a row already using custom css.i just would like to make it a slide show of the multiple (20) products in the one row.
i am using the featured product module from the development section of business catalyst. i would love to display as many new products as possible in one row of products. so i can just click a arrow left button and scroll through the products.
holy-shippers.businesscatalyst.com is the site i am mentioning.

Hello,
Aside from any custom implementations that may be suggested by any other members, you could also consider using some hero-type slider like those found on our new responsive templates, and have each web-app item contain a product.

In iOS 4, you could make separate photo slide shows with separate songs. In iOS 5, this has changed. Now only 1 song is allowed at a time. It will not save separate song selections for each slide show. Is there any way to fix this? This is something I

In iOS 4, you could make separate photo slide shows with separate songs.
In iOS 5, this has changed. Now only 1 song is allowed at a time. It will not save separate song selections for each slide show.
Is there any way to fix this? This is something I use every day.
I am on an iPad 2, 32gb, wifi...
Thank you

My Photos app works the same on iOS 5 as it did on iOS 4 i.e. I can have a different track for each album. When I select a track for a photo album I then start the slideshow so that it shows the first couple of photos with the track playing - I'm not sure it's necessary to start the slideshow but I always do and it remembers that track for that album.

IMac won't let me make any more slide shows in iPhoto. I have 35. Is there a limit?

I have been making slide shows on my iMac for years and all of a sudden when I go through the procedure, the newly named show doesn't show up in the list of slide shows. I can still make albums, but not slide shows. What's the deal? I have made 35 slide shows. Is there a limit?

Did you resolve this? Would reinstalling iPhoto correct the problem? If I try to reinstall would I lose all my photos etc.

What is stepbystep procedure to make finest quality slide show in iMovie?

After spending many hours of trial and error, like many others it sounds like, and after much time reading through this forum I have concluded that maybe one of the experts on iMovie, and this recurring question, could come up with a step-by-step guide on how to prepare photos for a high quality slide show in iMovie starting from downloading the digital image from the camera.
I find myself very confused as to how to prepare the photos in Photoshop (step by step here would be great also - how do you format the photo, size, pixal ratio, resolution, RGB or CMYK, ) and how to import them into iMovie while maintaining the highest quality possible. Then how to export to or import into iDVD. I think anyone who is attemping to produce a slide show wants to end up with a visually pleasing final product. No jaggies or blurriness. It seems to me that there should be, from start to finish, a fairly simple guide that would make it easier for all of us.

Maybe it's me, but... scoobie... i don't think your reply has anything to do with her question lol. I believe she's saying she is having trouble figuring out how to do something, not that the program is crashing.
Anyway, I'm starting a similar slideshow project. I think it's easiest to simply edit the photos in iPhoto. Photoshop is on a different level from iPhoto and obviously has capabilities iPhoto lacks, but I think it should be fine for just editing digital photos.
One of the things you said was "how do you format... resolution"
I don't think iPhoto can change the resolution of a photo like photoshop can, but since you want to make the FINEST quality slide show I assume you'd want to scale the resolution up... and although photoshop can do that, I don't think you'll see a significant increase in quality. It won't look anything like if you had actually taken the photo at a higher resolution.
As far as importing pictures into iMovie goes, that should be pretty easy. If you click on the "media" button in iMovie, and then click on the "Photos" tab on the upper right of the window, it will display your iPhoto library the same way it would display it in iPhoto (organized by albums). You can then drag whatever photos you want to include to the "timeline" at the bottom of the screen.
I'm not sure what to tell you about pixel ratio and RGB vs. CMYK....
The last step, exporting to iDVD is just as simple as adding pictures... just click on the "Share" menu at the top of the screen and select "iDVD". What you do from there depends on what kind of final product you want... and I haven't actually used iDVD so I would just be guessing on that part lol.
Also, I suggest going here: http://www.apple.com/ilife/tutorials/imovie/index.html and looking at the tutorial. I viewed most of the movies there and they were helpful.

The way iPhoto makes choices for slide shows?

So far I have been having very good luck with iPhoto and slide shows using the "scrapbook" layout. It is doing about 99% of what I want. Here are my current 2 issues:
1. As I see it, iPhoto is determining, based on the photo, what kind of presentation to use for each picture (whether it is vertical, horizontal, the 5 pane with the oval in the center, etc.). My question is whether there is a way to control that for a particular slide? Can I force a picture to be horizontal? Can I force which picture is where in the 5 pane slide? Sometimes that oval overlaps an important piece of the underlying photo.
2. My second issue is that I have a woman sitting in a chair with a baby laying on her lap. iPhoto insists on making a slide of the woman, but crops out the baby on her lap. How can I force more of the picture being shown?
Any insight is greatly appreciated...

As I see it, iPhoto is determining, based on the photo, what kind of presentation to use for each picture (whether it is vertical, horizontal, the 5 pane with the oval in the center, etc.).
It’s not the size, it’s the Aspect Ratio - whether it’s landscape or Portrait layout.
My question is whether there is a way to control that for a particular slide? Can I force a picture to be horizontal?
Only by cropping the pic into landscape
Can I force which picture is where in the 5 pane slide?
Make sure it’s the fifth pic in the sequence
My second issue is that I have a woman sitting in a chair with a baby laying on her lap. iPhoto insists on making a slide of the woman, but crops out the baby on her lap. How can I force more of the picture being shown?
Crop it to focus on the preferred subject.

How can I make an iPad slide show from files on my iMac

I am a graphic designer who wants to use my iPad as a portfolio.
1.) Must I create the slide show on the internet?
2.) Is there a way to transfer the files to the iPad and use an iPad portfolio slide show.
The basic problem is getting the images from the iMac to the iPad. I can take it from there.
Can I use same technique with my iPhone?
I want to be able to pull out the iPad or iPhone and let prospective clients see what I do well.

you could try looking at this-

How to make vintage prints slide show one photo at a time?

Does anyone know to program the vintage prints slide show to display only one photo at a time?

The slideshow templates are fixed and can't be changed.
Alternatives to iPhoto'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 Express $199
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 Express is the most capable app of them all. You get what you pay for.

How do I make an animated slide show that looks like pages of a scrapbook turning?

I am learning CS6 to make a website for the summer camp I run. On the main page I want a scrapbook that will open and show pictures of the kids having fun... how can I do this??

Take a look at FlippingBook, which is an extremely good application. This is also not Flash based so works in all devices.
http://flippingbook.com
You would need to create it as a standalone page and then add an iFrame to the page you want it displayed on to have it inside your web page template.
An easier way and maybe more versatile would be to just have a gallery on your page and animate it with CSS3. This is an example.

How can I make my JQuery Slider show on remote site?

Hello,
My Slider saga continues...
I "successfully" created a JQuery Slider using jCarouselLite and <a> tag thumbs, it shows up on my test(local)site but not on remote.
Unitl I refresh the browser or click on verticle nav links on the left, which doesn't result in a great user experience.
Here are my links to the page, the style and the js:
http://www.aliciaalmeidagraphicdesigner.com/Work.html
http://www.aliciaalmeidagraphicdesigner.com/style/Body.css
http://www.aliciaalmeidagraphicdesigner.com/js/functions.js
Anything in my code you see would be problomatic and preventing the slider from showing?
PS: As a side note, I'm also having issues with positioning the actual slider, but one thing at a time...
Thank you for any incoming responses and advice!

You have some errors in both your html and css. Clearing those out wouldn't hurt...

If it's still not working after those are cleaned up, post back and we can take a closer look.

Building a wedding slide show...

What resolution to scan Photos and will edited photos in photoshop work, and will Final Cut Pro X suffice or is it huge over kill?

FCPX supports only the video standards, 720x480, 1280x720, 1920x1080.
high res doesn't add any value, except you use massive amount of 'Ken Burns effects'.
consider ...
• usage of iMovie11 ... for a 'plain' slideshow why not?
• for quality beyond HDef-video, consider specialized tools as FotoMagico, which supports higher res (you have to use a 'computer' as player and >HDef displays or projectors ...)

Trying to create an automatic slide show

Hello Hello
I've read here where some folks have discovered that making a slideshow exported from iPhoto, or using some sort of quick method in iMovie, produces less than desirable results (even if the jpg files were a decent resolution size)?
I'm working in both iMovie, and mainly in FCE. I do know that each transition placed between each still photo on the timeline either in iMovie or FCE MUST be done manually (placed - inserted where you want them), then all MUST be rendered.
If you're working with many many photos, is there a good quality automatic method to have perhaps the same type transitions placed between EVERY photo AUTOMATICALLY?
Done for you?
Producing the SAME quality as if you'd placed them and rendered them manually yourself?
Thanx
Mike

...is there a
good quality automatic method to have perhaps the
same type transitions placed between EVERY photo
AUTOMATICALLY?
It's possible to apply a transition to two clips or to many. Just select all the clips where you want the transition(s) applied.
