Using other apps to create iphoto book

I want to use indesign to create an iphoto book - just to give me some more control over text, layout etc. What are the dimensions of the page in the softcover book?

one thing I forgot to mention is that I'm in Australia and my only option is to burn the final pdf file to disc and post it off to the printer. While this could be seen as a hassle - it does allow me the added luxury of using other software to produce the book in - giving me additional options on layout etc. What I want to know is how much I should allow for the binding on the page. I have printed out pages on a dummy copy I have made in iphoto and the print comes out at 20 cm x 14.8 cm - which is a bit smaller than the 8 x 6 spec they mention on the specs for the soft cover. So I'm assuming that the additional .5 cm is for binding the book?

Creating iPhoto Book

I cannot seem to create iPhoto books any longer. When I choose the library in the source pane and click add book or add album, only the first photo in the library appears in the new book or album. I can't seem to get the entire album to show in order to enable the drag and drop into the photobook despite having created books before.

Are you selecting more than one photo before clicking on the Book button at the bottom? If it's an album you want to make the book from just click on the album icon and then on the book button.
Do you Twango?
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 written 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

How can I record with GarageBand 1.3 in the background using other app?

How can I record with GarageBand 1.3 in the background using other app?
I use iPad 2 with iOS 6 and GarageBand v1.3.
I'd like to play an other app like Sunrizer synth while the GarageBand is recording in the background in a track.
By now I can do it only using the build-in mic of iPad, but this is not the point.
Can I record other apps in a GarageBand track?
Thanks a lot for your time.

I suspect you are probably correct about the reasoning, although there are already a myriad of ways to do that.
Don't get me wrong - I never said I like this. But it is consistent with other Apple applications, that are similar restrictive; you cannot take a screenshot, when dvd-player is running for example.
That are the moments, when I am glad that MacOS X is a unix system under the hood

Minimize apps to use other apps

I just got the pandora app. Can I minimize it somehow while its running and do other things on the iPad like use other apps?

Hi,
You can run Pandora and use other apps at the same.
With Pandora running double click your Home button. Your apps will be able at the bottom of the window. Just tap any app. Just swipe back and forth on the app icons to see all of them.
Pandora will run in the background.

The app store keeps popping up (with an app to download) while using other apps. It is getting incredibly annoying. I am currently using the QR reader app. How do I get it to stop?

Can I play music while I'm using other apps?

I believe that on my work iPad, I was able to play music while I used other apps, however, I seem to not be able to do so on my personal iPad. What do I need to do to be able to listen to music while I work?

If the apps use sound - such as game apps, you will not be able to play Music while using this apps. If you are working in a Word Processing app or some other app that doesn't involve using sounds, you should be able to play music - using the iPad Music App.

I purchased a IPad Air with Pages and Numbers included. I was told I could use these apps on my mac book and other devices. How do I sync or access these from my mac.

Can't create iPhoto Books and Calendars

I have OS10.10 on a 3.1 GHZ Core i7 iMac. It is a new machine and works very well. When I try to create a calendar or book for order in iPhoto nothing happens. It creates an album but beyond that I can not do anything.
Anyone else have this problem.
Thanks,
John

What are the steps you are using - what version of iPhoto do you have?
one way is to create an album and put th photos for the book or calendar in the album - open the album and select all then under share create the book or calendar
If it does not work what exactly does happen? What error messages do you get?

Any way to use the slideshow in the iphoto "Book"?

Hi All,
Currently, I want to edit slideshows and burn into IDVD. But I prefer the slideshow preview from iphoto "Book" which can edit more comments and slideshow function. Is it any way to select the slideshow from iphoto "book"? rather than just using the single function from the iphoto slideshow (which is not dynamic enough)... please help
Thanks!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You can create an iDVD slideshow of a book. It's relatively easy. It's described in Old Toad's Tutorial #6 - Creating an iDVD Slideshow From an iPhoto Book.. I create one for every book I buy. A great way for a group of people to view the book at once.

Creating iphoto book and can't seem to view/ work on only one page at a time.

I am creating an iPhoto book and can't seem to view/work on only one page at a time. The Navigator, that allows you to focus on a part of the page is actually 1 1/2 pages in size so 1 1/2 pages are in view when trying to work on one page. What am I doing wrong or how can I fix this. It is very distracting viewing half of a previous page when trying to create a new page and write a story to go with the related pictures.

My Navigator seems to be to large. It covers 1 1/2 pages while in the training information it shows as the size of one page. Is there a way to adjust the size of the Navigator?
You can hover the mouse over the left border of the Navigator - then the cursor will turn into a resize cursor and you can drag the border and make the Navigator panel smaller by enlarging the source list.
Or drag the lower right corner of the iPhoto window and shrink the appliaction window. This will only make the navigator smaller - the source list and information panel will stay the same size.

Streaming from ipod/ipad to ATV2 interrupted when using other apps at the same time.

Hi. I have an Apple TV2, ipad1 and ipod touch4. I am having trouble with music streaming to the ATV2. I can select a song on the ipad/itouch and stream it to the ATV2 no problem using airplay. However, if I then try to surf the net on the ipad/itouch or use any other app at the same time as listening to the music, the music hiccups. It seems to me like the ipad/itouch need to use the wifi network at the same time and so they take over the signal momentarily. Any ideas what I can do about this? My wireless router is a dual band 2.4 and 5 mhz gigabit router that is brand new and should not have any problems.
Thanks

Ferrell, I have done what you suggested. I clicked onto the Spaces icon in the upper control panel and assigned spaces to six apps: Mail, Safari, iPhoto, iMovie, Pages, and iWeb.
The problem is that if I am one app and I want to put something into that app, then the minute my mouse cursor goes to get that other thing, the original application into which I want the thing put GETS WHOOSHED OFF THE DESKTOP. What I want is for the original app to remain open whilst I go to retrieve a file or folder, and stay open while I put that thing into the original app.
How does one turn off Spaces? I don't mean to delete all the names from the settings.I mean, just turn it off for a while so I can do something which requires for two apps to be open at the same time????

Aussie created Iphoto book printed in the US?

I live in Australia and have created my iphoto book on my computer here but would like to have my photo book printed in the US and shipped to my parents for Christmas.
Is there anyway I can do this?
Thanks.

Greetings,
The last time I saw a question on this topic it was a bit over 2 years ago so the answer may have changed but yes, Canadian book orders are printed in Canada. As far as taxes, what you see in the order window is the total for the book in your region.
To find out for sure before you order, contact Apple Store Customer service for Canada and indicate you want to ensure that the total dollar amount indicated in the order window is indeed what you will be charged (I would assume it is otherwise there would be lots of people yelling about it).
Cheers.

Keeping Keynote Full Screen while Using Other Apps

Hello,
I searched around and wasn't able to find much of anything on this topic anywhere. I am looking to do Keynote presentations in full screen. While the presentation is in full screen I would like to use other applications on the display which I can see.
I activated the preference to allow other things like Expose control the screen, but when I switch applications it takes Keynote out of full screen mode. Anybody have any ideas as to how to keep it in full screen mode while in a different application? Thanks.

Depending on how you have your displays arranged, you might be able to use Dashboard on your presenter display while the presentation is running (you may need to use this technique to get that to work properly). However, as I understand it, applications do not come with the ability to float over Keynote by default, but must be explicitly written to do so. I therefore doubt that any off-the-shelf app will be useable directly in this way.

How to get of game ads on samsung galaxy s3 while using other apps?

I tried to download bbm messenger on play store it wouldnt work and they said in order to do that you have to download 3 games and I did once I found out it was no good I un installed the apps and from then ive been getting a lot of ads of free games and its hard to use the Internet because of this and also other apps like instagram.

hello, this is a support forum for the firefox browser. it sounds that you have downloaded a non-legit version of bbm that might be infested with adware and malware - however the issue you've raised doesn't seem related to firefox at all, so we cannot provide a solution for that...
