Using music from iTunes library to accompany slideshow

Hi
I would like to be able to use music from my iTunes library to accompany a slideshow in iPhoto 6. However, when I try to do this, all I can see is a small icon saying 'iTunes' but nothing happend when I click it...
Can anyone tell me how to get round this?
Many thanks!

Updated iPhoto could no longer use the music from iTunes library for slideshow

Anybody checked if you can still use your music from iTunes library for slideshows?
After updating both iPhoto and iTunes to the latest version in Mavericks, all music links in the iPhoto's slideshows became invalid. Tried even to re-establish the music links, but it seems like the iPhoto would not play any music from the iTunes library. Only the sample music from iPhoto is usable. The iTunes works fine by the way.
Thanks a lot!

I think I found a workaround that seemed to correct the problem. In iTunes, go to the File menu and choose Library. Then select Organize Library. Next choose Reorganize files in the folder "iTunes Media". Click OK.

I made an iMovie, 6.0.3 using music from iTunes and photos from the Internet. It looked fine on iMovie, but when I uploaded it to youtube,some of the photo near the beginning was corrupted.What steps should I take to export iMovie for youtube?

I made an iMovie, 6.0.3 using music from iTunes and photos from the Internet. It looked fine on iMovie, but when I uploaded it to youtube, some of the photo near the beginning were corrupted on youtube. I tried a different photo, and the corruption took place at the same moment of the video. How do I prepare the video for export to get it ready for youtube? I wasn't sure whether to clik web or web streaming. Am I supposed to clik Quick Time after I clik Share?

I unfortunately cannot remember where I got the 'trrndlines' plugin... I assume that it must have been from CFX (as it is located under /Users/Dom/Library/iMovie/Plug-ins/cfx/XXXtrrndlines.bundle).
As for what it does, I also do not know, as I do not think I ever used it in my previous video projects.
At this stage, I think I just need to uninstall it so that iMovie doesnt try to use it.
Do you know how to uninstall a CFX plugin in iMovie?
NOTE: I have re-installed iMovie 6.0.4 (instead of iMovie 6.0.3), but still encounter the same issue.

You need a third party app in order to do that. Here is one app that will do it.

Can't find sync option to transfer music from itunes library to ipod?

No sync option to transfer music from itunes library to ipod (nano). Ipod shows up in My Computer files, so it has been synced to this computer.

What is selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?

My ipod will not let me manually enter music from itunes library to ipod

my ipod will not let me manually enter music from itunes library to ipod - when i click and drag it, i get the red circle with the red line.

When I try to sync music from itunes library to my ipod touch, it says it can't sync because the connection to the iPod was lost. Please help!

When I try syncing music from my library to my ipod, I get the message that it lost connection. My ipod is plugged in to the computer though. Does anyone know how to fix this?

How is your iPod configured to sync music? In other words, what options and configurations do you have enabled from under your iPod's Summary and Music tabs in iTunes?
Maybe have a look at this article as well to verify your iPod is set up for syncing music.

Saving music from iTunes library to an external drive so I can upload to my vehicle

I am trying to download my music from itunes and store on a flash drive or mp3 player. My car has a component that allows you to upload your music and it will be stored in the music collection. Lately, I've been burning CDs then uploading but this is very time consuming. Can you download your music from itunes to a flashdrive or mp3 player? If so, how is this done.

Hi Tosca,
Flash drives differ a bit in style and form factor, but the main thing to look for is storage capacity. if you haven't shopped for a flash drive in a while, you will be pleasantly surprised in how many Gigs they can hold for not too much $$.
When you copy files from iTunes to a flash drive, it is a plain copy with no format conversion. If your target system needs MP3, make sure they are in MP3 in iTunes before you start. Some car players can handle other formats too. If anything needs to be converted, see this document:

How do I remove music from itunes library but keep them in a separate folder on my mac?

I also wouldn't mind understanding which specific folders the itunes library imports my music from. Does it search my whole computer and automatically add any music files or does it search only a specific folder? Is there a way to tell it which folder to use? Basically I'd like to keep two folders, one that itunes imports and one that is just on my computer and doesn't go to itunes. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

You can't. The reason is because the actual photos are all in the camera roll. The albums only contain links to these photos, not duplicate photos. (Albums work like music playlists. Music playlists also don't contain duplicate songs either; they only contain links to the songs in your music library.)

Because of a PC problem I have lost all my music from iTunes Library. All my music is still on my Nano (1st generation). How can I safely transfer my music into my library, I don't want to risk losing it.

Because of a PC problem, I have lost the entire contents of my iTunes Library. I still have all my music on my Nano (1st generation). Is there a way of safely transferring my music from my Nano into iTunes Library. I would hate to lose it all.

Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer is based on you maintaining your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is purchased content.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will probably have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

Transfer from 2G to 3G removed all music from iTunes library

When I got my used 3G iPhone today, the AT&T store told me to plug it into my laptop (dell, windows xp) and it will sync and that is all I need to do.
Well, I didn't sync or back up the 2G, I just put the new one in and that synched and backed up all right, but iTunes now has nothing in my Music or Apps.
After several sync and backups, still no iTunes music. I have all my music on 2G and on iPod.
Took computer to the AT&T store and we couldn't locate a backup that has my music since I tried so many times already today. My backup is in C:\Data\My Music\iTunes and has 1 song not 417.
How do I get the music from my 2G or iPod back into iTunes in order to add/sync it to my new 3G?
Please help
Deb

You guys...iTunes is such a DRM freak, if your trying to use it for the music you pirated from Ubekastanian websites dont even bother, it will delete it. Unless you purchased it off of iTunes, iTunes itself won't help you. What you need to do is google Show Hidden Files mac/windows and make your iPod or iPhone show those F00, F01, etc files. Just copy all of those files onto your desktop or your Music file, and then import it all into iTunes. If you want to organize it, you can sort through it yourself, although if your iPod has as much music as mine it will be a job.
Next time, back up the iPhone. I use this system when Im trying to get music I got from used iPods on to my iTunes library.
If you have a Linux machine, usually Ubuntu, Fedora, or some other form of Debian, then go into the iPod files and copy them all on to your desktop and back onto the iPod. Linux deletes all forms of DRM--its REALLY nice.

Sync only new music from itunes library

Does anyone know how to sync only NEW music from the itunes library to the iphone? I am following the basic help instructions and if I select certain songs, albums, playlists, etc. then it syncs ONLY those that I check. i.e. none of the music that was already on the iphone is there anymore. It's almost as if every time I sync the iphone I have to check ALL music that I want to be sync'd. And that's including music that was already on the iphone. How do I sync ONLY NEW songs from my itunes library, without losing what's on it beforehand?

i want to know if i can simply 8 songs to my iphone without changing the status of the existing songs on the phone.
Yes, which I've already answered, but I guess I haven't provided the answer in a clear enough manner.
How are you adding songs to your iPhone now?
Are you syncing all songs and playlists or selected playlists?
Do you have sync only checked songs and videos selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences?
These are the settings I'm using:
Sync only checked songs and videos under the Summary tab for my iPhone sync preferences.
Under the Music tab for my iPhone sync preferences, I have sync selected playlists selected.
I created a playlist with iTunes named iPhone. I have my iPhone playlist selected to be synced or transferred to my iPhone - along with a few other playlists.
I add the songs from my iTunes library to my iPhone playlist that I want available on my iPhone.
If I want to add 10 additional songs to my iPhone that are not currently on my iPhone, I add the 10 songs to the iPhone playlist. When syncing, the 10 new songs added to the iPhone playlist are transferred to my iPhone only with no songs removed from my iPhone. If I want to remove 10 songs from my iPhone, I remove the 10 songs from the iPhone playlist and then sync. The 10 songs removed from the iPhone playlist are the removed from my iPhone with no other changes - unless I add new songs to the playlist and remove others at the same time before syncing. The songs added to the playlist are transferred to my iPhone and the songs removed from the playlist are removed from my iPhone only when syncing. No other songs already on my iPhone are touched/removed with this process - unless I make a change to my iPhone playlist.
