Using iPhoto slideshows with Apple TV

I am unable to get a slideshow I made in iPhoto 08 to sync to Apple TV. I imported it into iTunes, and it plays fine from there, but the menu pick to allow it to be formatted for Apple TV is grayed out. I would appreciate help in getting this to work.
Thanks -
Dudley Warner

Hello, I don't have any of those things, but...
Long shot, but...
Open Audio Midi Setup in Applications>Utilities, see the input & output options & KHz setting there, some things will change it for their own use, then not set it back.

Using iPhoto library with Apple TV

Just st upo the Apple TV and have the iTunes bit working for music, purchased movies and home movies stored within iTunes from my late 2012 Mac Mini.
Must say am impressed.
The boss has 64Gb of photos on an a mid 2013 airbook and wants to know how the photos can be "shown" on the TV.
I have read a little on Airplay but not sure on how it might work for these photos.
Both computers running 10.9.2
Thanks

Solved my own question, I was on a different wifi network in the house:( so the airplay icon was missing
Set up Airplay and the boss now has iPhotos mirrored on the HDTV.
It is really good, highly recommend it as you dont need a Smart TV for it just one that supports 1080

Using iPhoto 09 with Adobe CS4

Hi,
I am trying to use iPhoto 09 with Adobe CS4.
I have Adobe as the default external editor and when I click on edit file, it opens the file in CS4. The problem is when I save the file, the changes are not reflected in the image and don't show up in iPhoto.
I found this:
Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
But that doesn't work for me. The original file just shows up again. Any ideas?
Thanks..

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. The following will help you use PS with iPhoto:

This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds

Iphoto sync with apple tv crash itunes

When I try to sync my photos using iphoto to my apple tv, itunes latest version crashes.
I have been able to sync the photos without using iphoto, any ideas.
I think that this is a bug.

I have exactly the same problem as above. I tried your checks and when I created a new library and added a few photo's it could sync them with appletv. So I think the problem is in the library, but I can't figure what I have to do to fix it. I am able to use iPhoto correctly and tried to rebuild the library, but that doesn't help (17,500 photo's and rebuilding only takes one minute, is that correct?). Any more ideas where I can look into? I already did a complete reinstall of the imac and resetted the appletv to factory settings, updated both to the newest versions. I moved the old library from the external harddisk and made it accessible to two users.

If it's an ATV2 or 3, you can use AirPlay. AirPlay automatically becomes available when the two devices are on the same Wi-Fi network.
HOWEVER! You should be aware of that AirPlay is, in some circumstances, far inferior to VGA / HDMI-cabled solutions. Please see my posts at https://discussions.apple.com/message/18697551?ac_cid=sa123456#18697551 for more info.

I am using My iPad with Apple TV, Airplay and projector in my classroom. The projector screens blanks out and back on several times during a presentation. It seems like a problem with connection but I'm not sure as it comes back on after a few seconds. Any idea of what is causing this and how it can fixed?

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

Will an iPhoto slideshow with music work on all computers in China?

I am making a promotional DVD for an education program in the US, and taking it to China to education fairs. If it is an iPhoto slideshow with music, will it work on all Chinese computers? I assume so, because since it is not video, I should not have to worry about different formats-right? I've got enough to worry about on this trip!
Prof. Fisher

On every single computer in China? Impossible to tell. But if you create a slideshow in iPhoto and send it to iDVD to be burned to a DVD then it will play on anything that plays DVD.

Just purchased a new iMac and transferred all info from my old iMac. Now when using iPhoto slideshow is displays the pictures in reverse order.

Just purchased a new iMac and after transferring all info from my old iMac. Now when using iPhoto slideshow it displays the pictures in reverse order.

There's a bug in iPhoto 9.5.1 and Mavericks that affects slideshows played directly from an album. The slideshow will not play correctly if the photos have been sorted manually. Any other type of sort, date, rating, keyword or title, will play correctly.
If you need that manual sort of pictures for your slideshow create the slideshow in iPhoto's slideshow mode.

IPhoto slideshow with descriptions?

How do I make an iPhoto slideshow with descriptions?

This helped along with changing how I was creating the slideshow. My original approach was the select "new slideshow" from the File Menu and then drag individual images to the slideshow folder. This is what didn't work for me.
I then tried selecting a bunch of images in an event then selected "new slideshow" from the File Menu, This resulted in a slideshow where I could shuffle the slide order in the image bar at the top. I don't know which step provided the solution, or whether it was the combination - I suspect the combination.
Thanks for your interest and help - much appreciated.

Can't access itunes library when using iphoto slideshow

When using iphoto slideshow and click on music, iphoto shows my itunes library but not the list of songs. When I click on library it only plays the first song on my list. I can't change to other songs.
I have the latest software for itunes, iphoto and quick time. Can anyone help me.
Thanks, Kathy

Sandy
Doesn't play songs purchased on iTunes either,
probably because of the copyright infringement
issues.
It does. You'll need the latest version of iTunes
and the latest version of Quicktime for this
to work.

Gotcha! It's the QT holding me up them. I have QT Pro and I don't want to update because then I have to PAY again for the Pro part. I learned that the hard way. What a rip off on their part for the users of their Pro version.

ATV iPhoto Slideshow with/Music

Hi-
I recently purchased an Apple TV to show my iPhoto slideshows on my flat-screen TV. I am a wedding photographer and use the slideshows as part of my presentation to potential clients. These slideshows have music playing in the background and in iPhoto the music is set to loop until all of the pictures have been displayed. Unfortunately on my Apple TV the song plays once and then stops, for some reason it is not looping in the ATV as it does on iPhoto. I called Apple support and was told that is how it works. I find it hard to believe the that the ATV would display the slideshow different than how I have it setup on iPhoto. Anyone else experience this?
Alex

That's odd, I'm able to loop a single song to my photo slide shows on my tv. You can do this by creating a playlist in itunes on your computer that contains the song you want to loop. Sync your playlist back to your tv. Go to Photos from the tv menu and select Slide Show Preferences > Music, select the playlist that you just created in itunes with your song of interest for looping. Back out of the music menu to Slide Show Preferences and set Repeat to "On" below the music menu.

Using iPhoto 08 with Photoshop elements

I am a recent Mac convert and I'm loving it.
However, I need some help understanding how best to use Photoshop Elements in conjunction with iPhoto 08. I was thinking I could use iPhoto to keep track of photos and do basic edits and link to other iLife apps etc, and use Photoshop to do more indepth editing.
I would like to know the most efficient way to open photos from inside iPhoto, into Photoshop. And how to get them back into iPhoto.
I realise I can drag a photo and create a copy on to the desk top and then open it with Photoshop, do some editing, save it to a/any folder, then import it back into iPhoto but…
1) is there a better way to do this?
2) I'm concerned with filling up my hard drive with multiple copies!
I'd be greatful for any help, Thanks

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
