Viewing slideshow on TV

Please please someone help me...
I am a complete amateur and newbie to Keynote and have painstakingly created a slideshow for my sister's 40th birthday. It is fairly simple with transitions between slides, pictures/text and a soundtrack.
All I want to do is burn it to a DVD so that it will play on a regular DVD player/TV set-up...what format do I use?????

Keynote itself cannot produce your DVD. It can export the presentation in various formats, one of them being QuickTime. You'll need to have your transitions all timed correctly and automatic.
File> Export... > QT Movie
For a large file you can select Full Quality Large. There are a number of video formats available under custom... but many of these are not usable on DVDs. This is where my memory fails me but H.264 which is one of the best compression formats is not compatable. Any how you are going to need another application, like iDVD, to create the DVD files and burn the disk. If the quicktime is playing okay from your desktop drop it into your DVD app and it should handle the file conversion.
Various options for QT export allow for chapter splitting the QT so manual advancing can be achieved in QT playback and also DVD playback. Explore and have fun.

Photo rotaion in organize view different than edit view & slideshow

Photo rotaion in organize view different than edit view & slideshow. The fact that the power supply to the computer was accidentally disconnected while I was working in iPhoto no doubt was the cause of this phenom.
Any suggestions as to how to re-sync the rotations back up?

Thanks for the tip. I wasn't aware of the use of theses two keys simultaneously. It occured to me after this post to just trash the whole library which I had just created for this particular group of photos and re-import the photos to a newly re-created library. I still had the camara connected so as it turned out it was fairly easy. Now that I think about it, if this hadn't been a newly created library just for this group of photos it wouldn't have worked so simply, so I guess I discovered another benifit for having multiple libraries.
I'm glad you recomended the apple/alt key combo though as this knowledge no-doubt will come in handy at some time.

Yahoo mail attachments will not show in View Slideshow

receiving mail Yahoo shows two options for attachments - View Slideshow and Download. When trying to View Slideshow, loading gears keeps spinning and spinning but never loads using Firefox 8.0.1
Cache and cookies are cleared regularly and again just now - still no luck. Addons are disabled - still no luck. So Yahoo Customer Care says problem is with Firefox, since it will load on Safari.

I'm with BT Internet which uses Yahoo's Neo Mail and have the same problem (plus others). This applies to every browser I have tried (Firefox, Safari, Chrome, SeaMonkey, Camino, Opera).
I sometimes find opening, closing, re-opening an email prods the slideshow into action.
Problems include: email thumbs don't show pics (slideshow thumbs usually do), pictures will not load in slideshow, if they do only first eight or so load (sometimes cured by scrolling through thumbs in email).
Also slideshow crops many pictures, but is OK full screen.
This is on Macs running 10.6.8 and 10.4.11 with latest versions of Firefox/TenFourFox.
Googling shows other people have this problem.

How to view Slideshows/Movies created in my Mac-Mini´s iPhoto, on iPad 3

Slideshows I have in iPhoto on my mac-mini, do not show up in the iPhoto on my iPad 3 (Just Photos, Events & Albums).
How do I get the slideshows (Saved with music in Mac-iPhoto), to show in my iPad´s iPhoto?
Do I need another app for this?
By the way, the same applies to the iMovie on my iPad (Do I need to import the movies/Slideshows
from iPhoto (Mac) into iMovie (Mac) to be able to see them on my iPad?
All I want to do is view Slideshows/Movies created in my Mac-Mini´s iPhoto,
on my New iPad (In iPhoto or iMovie if possible).
Thanks in advance for any help

Thanks for the tip Demo!
Sadly it is so.
Don't know why Apple didn't include slideshows into the iPhoto for iPads!
Solved the problem with Phtosync & Sugarsync Apps.
Another super apps for transfering Movies/Slideshows to your iPod, is VLCstreamer.
You can even watch movies that are on your Mac or extension drives via WiFi , streamed to the iPad
without even having to upload them to the pad (Which you can do also !).

How to View Slideshow but NOT in FULL SCREEN?

I often would like to start a slideshow of images on my mac but I don't want it to take up the whole screen. I just want to view the slideshow in a window. I have tried both iPhoto and Preview and can't figure out how to do that. Is there a way to do that in either of those apps?
thanks

HI,
I like iPhoto for slideshows. Preview doesn't support the enhancements such as the Ken Burns effects or audio like iPhoto does.
Open iPhoto. Select a slideshow in the source list on the left.
Click the Settings button at the bottom of that window.
Make sure: *Scale photos to fill screen* is not selected.
If you need more help, post in the iPhoto Forum

How do I edit image viewer slideshow created in CS3, in CS4?

I apologize for posting this twice...once in a previous post and once here. The reason being...the other post was old (2008) and I'm afraid it might get overlooked. So I thought I'd create a new discussion.
I created a bunch of slideshows in CS3 using Insert - Media - Image Viewer. I was looking for an easy way for my client to update the site themselves. Even though it creates a Flash element, it is easy for them to go in and switch out the images. All they do is click on the slideshow box, hit Window - Tag Inspector and click on the little folder at the side of the Image URLs' line. Nothing could be simpler. Well...I went in to see my client to show her how to do this but she has CS4. When I tried to do the same thing, nothing looked the same. The tag inspector did not have the same elements in it at all. Does this mean she cannot edit the slideshows I have created? Ugh...
If anyone can help with a work around to this...I'd be very grateful!
Thanks.
Pam

Thanks for your reply via e-mail David. I tried to reply but it's a no reply address so I'm posting here:
Do you happen to know if my client who has CS4 would be able to open the slideshows I created in CS3 using the method mentioned here:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Bridge/3.0/WSCF044571-2772-4d28-9EBD-2C9F46AF008A.html
Not having CS4, I can't even play around with it to see. Or will the slideshows have to be recreated in CS4? Has my work in CS3 over the months gone to waste in other words?
Alternatively, would it be better for us both to purchase a $29 Dreamweaver extension such as the one below, so we could both access the slideshow from CS3 and CS4 at the same time?
http://www.dwuser.com/flashslideshow/v3/
I need to keep building the new site using the slideshows while she maintains the old site (no slideshows) until we upload the new site this summer. I don't want to continue building slideshows she cannot access.
Thanks a lot for your help!

Can't view slideshow once site is published

Hello-does anyone have any advice on this.
I published my website and then went to view it to find that it would not let me view the slideshow or click on a photo to enlarge. A box came up saying this...Firefox can't open because it cannot read the protocol.
Anyone ever have this problem

Some problems with Firefox 3 and iWeb were fixed in the latest version 2.0.4 of iWeb. If you're not already on iWeb 2.0.4, then upgrade to it via  menu > Software Update...
Then in iWeb do +Publish All+ and clear your browser's cache before viewing your slideshow.

Using TV to view slideshow

Help! Can anyone advise where I may be going wrong? I'm trying to view a photo slideshow on my TV using the Component AV cable, but all I get is a blank TV screen.
I've got a digital TV (so I don't think that's the problem), I've connected the blue, green and red VIDEO wires into the back of the TV into the corresponding sockets (labelled "Component") and connected up the AUDIO wires as well. I've turned the iPhone on, selected a slideshow and all I get is a blank TV. And yes, I have turned on the TV!!!!
I've tried switching between PAL and NTSC (in the "TV Out" menu under "Settings") but that doesn't seem to make any difference.
Can anyone help?
Thank you
MPP35

You can indeed view a photo slideshow from your iPhone on a TV.
Connect you iPhone to your TV using the appropriate cable (component AV in your case). Make sure your TV is set to the correct input (AV4 on my TV). Switch on the iPhone and select the Photos app. Select the album you wish to view and tap the Play symbol at the bottom of the screen. The slideshow should now appear on your TV screen.
As far as settings go, mine are as follows:
Settings - iPod - TV Out
Widescreen ON
TV Signal PAL (I live in a PAL region).
The above works for me. Possible suggestions as to why it's not working for you:
Have you got the correct cable?
Is it plugged into the correct sockets on your TV?
Have you actually tapped play? In my experience still photos don't show up on the TV but the slideshow does.
Sorry I can't be of any more help. Good luck.

When viewing slideshow my photo playlist stops and randomly plays for a view seconds only

When I go to view a slideshow of photos the playlist I assigned to play either doesn't play or randomly kicks in during slideshow. I have assigned several different playlist to my photo slideshow and they all do the same thing. I am connected to a Mac. No problems with pictures just my playlist.

When I say playlist I mean music playlist.

Select images using keywords and view slideshow...using what?

I have a library full of jpeg images that were created either using the export command from LR or by editing in Br/Ps and then savedAs jpeg. Now I want to watch slideshows on my monitor (30" Apple HD Cinema Display). Now I have the following Dilemma:
- I can start a Search Command in Bridge and narrow it down to exactly the images I want in my slide show. Then from the View menu select Slideshow. The IQ is terrible. True sharpness is only revealed when zooming in 100% but that's not the idea of a slide show.
- I can also use Apple OS's (Tiger) built-in slide show and start it from the finder. That way I get high quality, fast dissolving slide shows, that are unfortunately limited to the first 100 images in the Finder view. However, in the Finder I cannot select my images using keywords and IPTC info.
So could there be a simple solution to the problems I'm running into with Bridge?
Or could there be a nice viewer for MacOS that features the search option I want and renders good images and dissolve option?
Thanks.

@Ann Shelbourne: Thanks for your reply. I'm hesitant to upgrade to CS4 at this point. That would mean my only option is to look for a jpeg viewer other than Adobe that can select images based on keywords and iptc data. Would you know one that does?
@Ramon G Castaneda: I apologise for being an inexperienced forum visitor. I will take note of your advice and follow the posting instructions.
I checked FAQ's both here and at Adobe, as well as the knowledge base. No results. I also searched the forum.
My setup: MPB dual core Intel, 2GB RAM, 30GB free disk space. Adobe CS3, just updated to Bridge version 2.1.1.9. No improvement at all so far. According to Ann only CS4 will solve the problem.
Thank you.

Viewing Slideshow in Bridge CS6 causes Black Screen

Not a question, just an observation that I don't know where else to report this.
I was using Bridge CS6 to view a folder of 200+ photos in Slideshow mode (Ctrl + L).
I was simply using the left and right arrow, occassionally the Spacebar, and marking about 25% of them as rejects by using the keyboard shortcut Alt + Delete.
Suddenly the entire monitor went black. No text message (not the Black Screen of Death), just black. I tried several standard Windows keyboard shortcuts to try to get a different view (Windows + Tab, Ctrl + Alt + Delete, etc.), but nothing worked. I could tell that the monitor was still functioning correctly by simply bringing up its on-screen menues. The only thing that I could do was to turn off the power to the computer. After rebooting, Windows, Photoshop, and Bridge all seemed to operate correctly (but I haven't yet gone back to Slideshow view).
I haven't had a program or Windows crash for months now, but I just installed Photoshop CS6 (not the extended version) late last week.
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
nVidia GTX-460 video card with newest drivers installed (296.10)

I can't help with the black screen, but that sounds like a slightly risky way of cleaning out the rejects. I prefer to give non keepers a single star (Ctrl 1) and bring them up with the filters, so I can look through them one last time.
Just a thought, but there is a tenuous link with slide shows and projectors. I wonder if it went into external monitor only mode. (Windows key p) I have just tried it here, and was unable to make anything appear on my main screen. You'd be working blind, but a possible solution (if it happened again) would be to go Windows key p > right cursor key (once) > Enter. That would put you back into main monitor only mode.

Problem viewing slideshow pdf

When I export a slideshow from Lightroom (1.4.1 Windows), using all default settings it doesn't display properly. The pdf files (viewed with Acrobat Reader8) has right number of pages (photographs), however the photos are not showing. Instead I see a grey box (the size the photo should be) with a red diagonal line. Tried all helpfiles, should be straightforward, what am I doing wrong????
Many thanks!

I apologize - I hadn't re-loaded the page to update my current design. And as soon as I did, it worked in chrome and IE - and the security warning is gone in IE. But the images did not show up in the dreamweaver chrome preview. Weird
Here is the page: http://brucebolander.com/SLIDESHOW/Index.html
Anyways, I still have some tweaking to do - but the slideshow works. It does do a weird shifty thing when a user clicks on the thumbnail images to bring up the large photos, however. It looks like it only happens with the more vertically oriented images in chrome, but in IE, until a user has clicked on every thumbnail & they are all 'loaded' (I don't know if that's the right word), the page shifts with each new click on a thumbnail. And even then, some photos still cause the shift.
I tried mucking around with the widths, but per the data.xml file they should all be 800px wide...not sure.
IE also places a black border around the header image - changing it to border:none in the css doesn't help.
If anyone has any ideas about these issues please post - thanks!

Lightroom 3 not sure which pictures are which in Library view/slideshow?

Well I've been trying out LR3 for the past week or so and have a nagging problem. Say I had an import yesterday from a birthday party, and one today from a football game. I'll import the football game pictures and then be in library mode, with the view showing all pictures. Down with all of the football pictures, every once in a while, randomly, some of the football thumbnails will switch to show birthday party pictures. And the same thing happens in slideshow mode...you'll be cruising along with football pictures, and out of the blue one will "flip" or switch to a birthday picture. This is driving me nuts and makes it difficult when you're all ready to work on a picture, when all of a sudden it flips over to a picture from another day. Can anyone shed any light on this?

I can't but I have seen this in Develop when using Crop. The image flip to something from a different location and back. Bizarre.

Fotomagico and television-viewed slideshows

I need quick and comprehensive help here.
I've accomplished creating my slideshow in iDVD using 700 photos (with music). Granted, it hiccups a bit every 99 slides, but I'm willing to live with that. (I had no choice about the number of photos - the bereaved widow really wants them all in)
The resolution, whether viewed on t.v. or computer, is not so hot however. Could be because I did some dust & scratch removing? Regardless, the viewed images are not as good as the single edited still images I have in iPhoto.
So I've been reading about Fotomagico - I really have to finish this project in the next 2 days; the funeral it's for is coming up soon.
Is Fotomagico really a good solution? Can I easily (and quickly) create my slideshow with music without wasting a lot of time? WILL it be that much better?
And, most importantly, will it be viewable (and good) on television? That's how it will be shown at the celebration of life for my late friend.

When you make a DVD your high quality photos are compressed to 680 x 420 in the US, slightly larger in Europe. Why? Because that's what a DVD is - that's the definition of same. So your images in iPhoto that might be 3,000 x 2,000 are made a whole lot smaller. Then viewing them on a modern HD ready or better TV is always going to be problematic.
I don't think that using FotoMagico or anything else will over come this problem. The issue is the DVD standard.
I think your best bet would be to connect the Mac directly to the TV. Otherwise you'll need to find a BluRay burner and software that will burn HD disks.

Ever since Firefox updated, I cannot view slideshows on websites. If I click the "Next" button to see the next slide in an article, nothing happens. Why is this? How can it be fixed? I've cleaered cache, done everything.

When I try to view any article with a slideshow, the next button on the slideshow doesn't work. It doesn't matter which website, it doesn't happen in other browsers (ie Chrome), and it didn't happen prior to the recent Firefox update. I've cleared cache, checked all of the settings, and nothing's fixing this. How do I fix it?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
