URGENT IPHOTO HELP PLEASE!! :)

I am using my imac to make a slideshow for a friends funeral. I have never done this before. I have created it in Iphoto. WHen I was done, I clicked on Export and it puts it into Itunes. Is that the only way to get the slideshow on a dvd? I added the slideshow to a playlist and I am currently burning it to a dvd. The only option is a data dvd and it says it may take up to an hour to burn even though the dvd should only be 12 min long.
Does anyone know if I am doing this right or if there is a way to burn it from Iphoto? Help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Export the slideshow from iPhoto, that makes a movie of it.
Do you want to use this DVD in a domestic DVD player? If so, then the disk will have to be 'authored' to make it the correct form for that. If you have iDVD then that's the app you use. However, iDVD is no longer developed or distributed by Apple. You may be able to get it on an old iLIfe install disk.
Other options:
Burn: http://macupdate.com/app/mac/21992/burn
Toast: http://macupdate.com/app/mac/6351/toast-titanium
But there are lots of others too. Search on the App Store or MacUpdate

  • VERY URGENT IPHOTO QUESTION PLEASE HELP!!!

    Good day. i know this is an ihpoto question which should be posted in the iphoto section- but due to its urgency i really need all the help i need.- I would like to create a slide show presentation with music attached to it. i tried it once with a few pistures and it worked. now, i have around 3 hundred pictures and would like to create a slide show but unfortunately the same music keeps on playing over and over again. once the 1st music is done and there are still pictures to be shown, can i use another music title? how do i do this? please help....

    I always create a playlist in iTunes when I'm making an iPhoto slide show. You can select the playlist to play. I generally try to figure out how long I really want the slide show to last, and then make the playlist in iTunes. You haven't told us which version of iPhoto you're using, but the more recent versions have an option to time the slideshow to the length of the music rather than playing the music over again. Exactly which versions of iTunes and iPhoto do you have?

  • Need iphoto help please

    Hello. I am currently running 10.5.4 on my 1.8ghz single processor g5. I just purchased a new mac pro, and I would like to copy my photos from my old iphoto to my new iphoto. (I do not have the new computer set up yet—I would like first get some ideas on the best way of transferring/backing up).
    I have a little bit of an issue. I think I screwed around with my iPhoto folders a little because I changed the location of my photos to my external drive and I think I may have messed around with the folders. In my "pictures" folder, I have three main folders. I think I created the first two separately for some reason—maybe as an attempt at a backup last year?
    1. 2001-2006 photos
    2. 2007 photos
    3. iphoto library
    Basically, I have currently have over 10,000 photos in my iphoto library. I was hoping to archive some of the older photos so that I do not have to transfer all of the 10,000 photos to my new computer. What is the best way of doing this? I still want to keep the old photos, but I figured I would burn them on a DVD to archive, but I no longer want them in my iphoto library. I want to be able to pick and choose which photos I am going to transfer to my new computer. In iPhoto, I have all of my photos categorized into folders, but it doesn't seem to categorize them like that in the iphoto library (it does it by rolls?). It also contains folders called "modified," "originals," etc. Any idea how I can for example choose that "Tara's Wedding" Photo folder can be archived, but not transferred?
    I apologize for the lengthy post, but I want to be sure I am getting my point across. Thanks so much in advance for your help!
    Regards,
    Dayna

    1. You need to do this in iPhoto and not through the iPhoto Library Folder in the Finder. The changes you make in iPhoto will be reflected there but Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
    2. Simply: Any photos, albums or folders of albums you want to archive: Select them in the iPhoto Window and use the Share -> Burn command to burn them to disk. This will make a “mini” iPhoto Library on the Disk so that if you need to access these files popping the disk into your Mac means it will show up in the iPhoto Window and you can drag them back to your Library there.
    3. Having archived the pics (and then tested the disks to make sure that all is well) put the pics you no longer want into the iPhoto trash and empty it (iPhoto Menu -> Empty trash. Tip: Do this in batches of about 100 or so. Iphoto baulks at trashing too many pics at a time). This removes the pics from the iPhoto Window and the Hard DIsk
    4. To move the Library to the new machine: Copy the iPhoto Library Folder from your Pictures Folder to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine. Then launch iPhoto. That’s all. +There’s no importing involved+.

  • Hi all, i need urgently your help please. My touch screen on muy Iphone 5  is not working, i dont understand as it has not been damaged at all, i dont know what happened and need urgently somebody helps me please

    Please anyone there can help me what I can do??!! touch screen of my Iphone 5 is not working at all and dont understand as it has not been damage and it is only 2 months and half!! it is not an old iphone and it has not been damaged, has happened right now and cannot turn off the mobile at all. Tried to take out the nano sim as i though it will be turned off but it has not been! i dont know what i can do and i am desesperate!!! thanks All for your help!!

    Removing the SIM has no affect on the power of the phone. It is just the part that facilitates connecting to your carrier. Try holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo on the screen and then release the buttons. The phone should reboot. You may need to hold the buttons together for 15-30 seconds.

  • IPhotos help please  re title

    Hi there,
    Few questions. I have degenerative illness and doing this for family, not me. Needs to be done quick as I don't know what tomorrow brings.
    After spending years scanning all family photos and putting them in folders and subfolders on Windows system, they have migrated over to iPhoto fine.
    I've worked out that sub folders don't automatically show, which is so confusing on the iPhoto's screen "view" - as they are in folders but all over the place.
    1.  Worked out how to make album, and then folder  -  which is going to take me forever and a day to do, but will because important for me.Quicker way to do this? And can it change in "events" to look like albums? So 1986 will have one or maybe ten folders within it?
    2. I tagged photos with information i.e. grandfather's old home and address - looks like I am going to have to re-enter all that information. Yes? No?
    3. I don't wish to use faces, as waste of time, which I don't have - so many are wrong. Worked out how to stop that and have. But do wish to name the people in them, can I name tags or are tags simply colours.....?
    4. In Events if you open say an event it says in middle 1986 then has 12-08-1986 to 14-10-2014 (this is date I obviously migrated info across) - how can I change this second date as it is wrong.
    5. I know iPhotos has editing program, but wish to for one slightly better....any ideas? Not complex though, as I mentioned earlier, health and time are or relevance and some days can't see properly. Not costly either?
    Thanks and hope you can help me someone out there in cyberspace.
    I am loving my new iMac pro but having hiccups and learning process, but getting their slowly. Just really hope I don't have to reenter all info and wish they wouldn't just muck folders around by taking out the sub folders which are so relevant.
    Thanks,
    Belinda

    1.  Worked out how to make album, and then folder  -  which is going to take me forever and a day to do, but will because important for me.Quicker way to do this? And can it change in "events" to look like albums? So 1986 will have one or maybe ten folders within it?
    Afraid not.
    But if the Photos have accurate Exif data on them then you can sort by date anyway, and make smart albums based on date.
    2. I tagged photos with information i.e. grandfather's old home and address - looks like I am going to have to re-enter all that information. Yes? No?
    Depends on how you tagged it. If you used standard metadata then it will already be there. If you used non-standard then you will have a problem.
    3. I don't wish to use faces, as waste of time, which I don't have - so many are wrong. Worked out how to stop that and have. But do wish to name the people in them, can I name tags or are tags simply colours.....?
    I'm not sure what you mean by "colours". Keywords are standard photo metadata that can be written to photos on export.
    4. In Events if you open say an event it says in middle 1986 then has 12-08-1986 to 14-10-2014 (this is date I obviously migrated info across) - how can I change this second date as it is wrong.
    By changing the date on the photo(s) that are incorrect. (Photo Menu -> Batch Change)
    5. I know iPhotos has editing program, but wish to for one slightly better....any ideas? Not complex though, as I mentioned earlier, health and time are or relevance and some days can't see properly. Not costly either?
    Slightly better in what way? In order of price here are some suggestions:
    Seashore (free)
    The Gimp (free)
    Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
    Acorn ($50 approx)
    Pixelmator ($50 approx)
    Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
    There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store.
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
    Best wishes.

  • Printing from iPhoto ***HELP PLEASE***

    Hi there.  I'm running iPhoto 9.5.1 and up until now have always managed to print photos.  Literally hit print and it automatically working out whether its portrait picture or landscape.  It recently updating iPhoto.
    Suddenly, when i hit print using either a landscape or portrait picture this occurs??? It tries to print the picture incorrectly.
    Never had an issue before, if it was a portrait picture, i would select print, select the size of paper and hit print.

    Try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete the contents the following folder:
    User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: For Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

  • Need urgent bookmark help please

    macbook pro with snow leopard: i had a bunch of webpages of macbook and ios5 tips saved in my 'popular' folder but i decided to move all those to a new folder just for them. dragged the last bookmark into the folder and somehow accidentally deleted the whole folder. is there anywhere to find this folder, it's not in the trash. i'm desperate, thanks.

    thank you so much for your help. after sleeping on it i realized i hardly ever used those bookmarks, i had them there 'just in case'. i remembered about half of them so i'm gonna decide if it's worth the trouble to try and restore the rest. either way, the link you provided will be very helpful now and in the future. thanks again.

  • HT2639 iPhoto Help Please

    Hi - I read that when a picture is cropped and saved in iPhoto that the original should still be available because it works off of a copy, but when I go back to look for the original I don't see it.  Does anyone know where it is saved?

    In edit mode press the shift key to see the original (you can also go back one edit at a time by pressing the command key and typing "z")  - at any time right click on a photo and choose revert to original
    The original is saved in the iPhoto library as all all versions of the photo and all information about he photo - you should never go directly into the iPhoto library - doing so can damage your library and cause data loss

  • IPhoto help Please

    Im trying to upload a 98 page book and the process is stopping about 15% into the upload phase. What am I doing wrong?

    Well with no information about what yhou have or what you are doing it is not possible to tell you what you are doing wrong
    What version of iPhoto do you have? Of the OS? exactly what happens?
    Is the preview good?
    One general answer is to boot into safe mode,
    Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
    and if the preview is perfect order while in safe mode

  • Urgent iMac help please

    OK,
    Last weekend my girlfriend got a new iMac (20", 2.4GHz) and everything has been running great.
    Today I went to install Bootcamp for her and everything was going well but there was an error with Windows and it would not properly install. Anyway I went back into OSX, removed Bootcamp and re-installed. I repeated this twice. On the third installation attempt I tried to boot back into OSX but the computer hangs on the grey screen. I can eject a CD by holding the mouse down but I am unable to boot off a CD (holding down the 'C' key).
    If anyone has any further suggestions I would be very grateful as I am in the brown and smelly now!

    Holding the option key will evoke the startup manager and let you select which system volume to boot to. If it does not recognize the disk then you might try resetting the P-RAM first then hold the C key. To reset the P-RAM hold down the Option/Apple/p/r keys until you hear the boot chime at least 3 times.

  • I imported a ton of photos from my iPhone into iPhoto and after deleting off phone they're not in iPhoto.... HELP PLEASE!

    I have an iphone 5S, using version 7.0.4. I had a TON of photos on my camera roll which was taking up space so this evening I synced and chose to import all 600 photos into iphoto (version 9.5.1). It took a while to import all the photos as expected and seemed to be slowing counting down during the import. At the end it told me all the photos had been sucessfully imported, showed thumbnails (or similar) on a roll of them all and asked if I wanted to delete the photos from my iphone. As I was doing this due to a space issue I of course said yes. The annoying thing is that before choosing to delete I clicked on a random photo to import it just to check it was infact already imported. I had the message box telling me it had been imported and did I want a duplicate, apply to all duplicates etc. So I thought it safe to delete off my phone.
    Once they were deleted, I now can't find them ANYWHERE on my iphoto. Please someone help me, surely they are somewhere? I really hope so, i have some precious photos special once in a lifetime events with my children. Grateful for any help!

    It should. So they aren't shown in the Last Import smart album, right? Try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database, followed by Option #1 if needed.
