Want to view photos in slideshow using a portable hardrive

PLease help. I am trying to view my photos from an external hardrive using my iphoto but not working. I was using a shortcut command but can't remember it now.

Bit vague on details but I'll have a guess:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'

Want to view Photos from iPhoto on TV set

I purchased Composite AV Cable from the Apple Store and was told that this was all I needed to view pictures from iPhoto on my TV. It didn't work because the TV didn't recognize the iPhone , so I returned the cable. Later I spoke to a friend and was told that I also needed a docking station in addition to the AV cable to view pictures on the TV.
Before I drive back to the Apple store, does anyone know if this will work. I have an iPhone 3G and I want to view pictures on an older TV set.
Thanks,

As long as you have composite input on your TV (and know how to set your TV to use that input, of course), you can view your photos from the iPhone. No need for a dock. But you must +carefully read+ the description of the cable's function, which states, +"Connect an iPod or iPhone to your television with the Apple Composite AV Cable, gather up your friends, and watch videos or slideshows together on the big screen."+
Slideshows, not photos. You must launch the Photos app, select an album (or the Library) then tap the Play button to start a slideshow. That's what is output to the TV, not just whatever picture (or other activity on the screen) is displayed - just slideshows and videos.

I have problems viewing photos in blogs using Blogger

I have a couple of blogs that I frequent and lately (within the last month or so), I am having trouble viewing photos the bloggers have posted. Sometimes the first photo will seem to load, but by the time the entire page has loaded, where there is a photo, all I can see if a small rectangle. These are bloggers who are using Blogspot/Blogger. No one else seems to be having a similar problem.
I have Firefox 3.6.13.
I have tried all the recommended things, clear cache, cookies etc. and I still can't see the photos.

Thanks cor-el
Tried all of the suggestions and it seems not to be due to an extension or theme.
The problem only seems to occur on blogs at the *.blogspot.com address, who are using Blogger software.
I wonder if there is some incompatibility between a recent version of Blogger and Firefox?? I have tried contacting Blogger, to see if there are problems, with no success, although I have found 2-year-old posts on the Web indicating some problems at that time -- nothing recent though and no suggested fix.
Any ideas?

IPod displaying black screen when I want to view photos

Hi,
here's the thing I wasn't able to find a solution yet. I synced some photo album from iPhoto to iPod nano 4gb (3rd gen). When navigating to photos with nano I see the album and inside the photos thumbnails but when I enter into the photo full screen mode to view photo nano just displays a black screen... no photo ...
Am I doing something wrong?

I did an update that my Macbook required and it sorted itself out, hope it works out for you.

Can't view photos or slideshow

sorry, i'm a real beginer - my photos seem to be imported into iphoto beacause i can see the thumnails, but when i run slideshow there are no images. what have i done wrong. thanks for help.

QueenieLady,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Inside those Year-based folders (2003, 2006, 2007) are folders with the same names as the Film Rolls in your iPhoto library. Those roll-based folders should contain your actual image files. iPhoto doesn't always deal properly with importing folders that contain subfolders. So drag each roll-based folder into the iPhoto window, and a Film Roll will be created for them in your new library.
The iPhoto Window is the main viewing area, as seen inside the iPhoto application. With a new library, it is the large empty area of the screen. If you drag the lower-right corner of that window so that it occupies about half of your monitor, you can then click back and forth between the folders you are importing from the Finder and the iPhoto window. Select the roll folders from the Finder window, then drag them over the iPhoto window and drop them there. iPhoto should then indicate to you that photos are being imported.
I hope this helps. Post back if you have more questions or would like to see pictures to illustrate this.
Regards.

I just want to view photos from a CD. How do I do that?

I installed a CD-RW with scanned photos in my disk drive. How do I get the MacBookPro to let me view the photos? VMWare seems to take over with a Windows viewer. Can I disable that & get, maybe iPhoto to let me view those scanned photos? Or Adobe Photoshop (installed on my Mac)? don't know how to do all this.

Both Photoshop and iPhoto are resource hungry and will take awhile to read from the slow optical drive. You are better off seeing if the disc mounts and dragging the pictures to a folder on the desktop. Then you can either import them into iPhoto, browse them with Photoshop or select all, and right click open with Preview.

Is there another way to make web client control download automatically for every html process I want to view in my intranet using IE 6.0? Thanks.

Using a Portable Hardrive 160Gb capacity with Macmini.

I am struggling to find any useful help within Apple Support documents etc. for this problem. I have purchased an Iomega 160Gb HD to store iTunes and iPhoto libraries and thus relieve the Macmini of excess weight. Unfortunately, plugging it in doesn't show anything and what is available from docs. is dated 21/03/2003 and not helpful. Can anyone suggest what I can do to get this thing working, and is there some software that will execute the transfer of data if I do get it up and running. Thanks all.

It's rare that a disc drive doesn't mount on the desktop of a Mac when connected - can you tell us what model of drive it is, whether it's connected by firewire or USB, and whether it is powered by it's own cable or from the system? If the latter, then you may find there simply isn't enough power on the bus to make the drive function correctly if you have other devices connected too.
Alternatively, you may have a faulty cable, or the drive itself may be a problem.
Assuming it is connected by USB and has its own power supply, try connecting it directly to the mini's rear USB ports, not a hub if you were previously using one. Then open Disk Utility (in Applications>Utilities) and see if it is listed on the left hand side. If it shows there, then it may simply not be partitioned and formatted correctly to be recognised by the mini. If it does not appear in Disk Utility, then try a PMU reset (if you have a G4 mini - 2 USB ports on the rear) or an SMC reset if it is an Intel-based mini - 4 USB ports).
To reset the PMU (ONLY for G4 minis, not to be tried on an Intel system):
-Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord.
-Wait 10 seconds.
-Plug in the power cord while simultaneously pressing and holding the power button on the back of the computer.
-Let go of the power button.
-Press the power button once more to start up your Mac mini.
To reset the SMC on an Intel mini:
-From the Apple menu, choose Shut Down (or if the computer is not responding, hold the power button until it turns off).
-Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord and any display cables.
-Wait at least 15 seconds.
-Plug the power cord back in, making sure the power button is not being pressed at the time.
-Then reconnect your keyboard and mouse to the computer.
-Press the power button on the back to start up your computer.

How do I view photos on my Mac from a SD card without using iPhoto?

I just want to view photos (not make changes) and possibly download some to my harddrive on my Mac (don't want to buy iPhoto). How can I do this?

Here's what you do: First, click out of iPhoto, close the program. Then, go to Finder, File, New Finder Window. Then, do that exact same thing again. You will end up with two Finder windows on your screen. That's a good thing.
Resize both those windows so that they fit on the screen in a way that you are comfortable with. Then you can grab the images or whole files from one window, and drag them into another file on the other window. Voila, the computer will move the files.
For easier organization, you might want to first create a new file for your photos, if they are all of a specific subject. On the destination screen, click on File, New Folder. A new folder will appear in whatever folder you are already in. Type in whatever you want to name it. Then move the pictures into it.
Much more intuitive for all of us old Fortran programmers who migrated from Windows.
Hope this helps, -J

Viewing Photos on CDS

I want to view photos on CDs made at a bigbox store ir that has been burned as backup. If they are duplicating photos already in the libe, and I want to review to make sure I have the best and not a thumbnail, how do I do that?gbyahand

To burn a CD for taking to a photofinisher or to use on a PC you should use the Export method. For printing the workflow would be the follwoing:
1 - assemble the photos you want to have printed in an album
2 - crop each to the size you want printed. (If you want different sized prints on the same CD I'd create a new album for each size)
3 - select that album and go to the File menu and choose the Export option.
4 - in the next window click on the Export button at the top so bring up the export options.
5 - select full size files and then click on the Export button at the bottom.
6 - navigate to the desktop and select a folder to receive those files.
7 - now burn those folders of files to a blank CD via the Finder.
This will give you a CD of just jpg files for printing.
If you used the Share->Burn menu option you'll get an iPhoto formatted CD disk that will be very difficult for a photofinisher or PC to user. It's designed to be used by iPhoto as seen here. Mount the disk in the drive and it shows up in iPhoto.

Some or all of the photos you selected were downloaded from your published albums. You can only view these photos. To use them in an album or a slideshow or project, you must import them to your photo library.

I was trying to Import photos from my Facebook photo to my MacBookAir and now all i got is lots of back round photo. Please Help me out to delete them.Some or all of the photos you selected were downloaded from your published albums. You can only view these photos. To use them in an album or a slideshow or project, you must import them to your photo library.

What that's telling you is that some of the photos you want to use are not in your Library but online in a gallery you have linked to. You need to download them first.

I get this pop up when trying to create a photo book through the iPhoto store.
"Some or all of the photos you selected were downloaded from your published albums. You can only view these photos. To use them in an album or a slideshow or project, you must import them to your photo library."
The photos I have selected have already been imported so how and why do I do it all over again?
What do they mean by published albums? I categorize them into photo albums for organizational purposes after I import them from my camera or phone. So why can't I put them into a book now?
I have over 400 photos selected for a photo book for my child's graduation gift so how can I tell which photos I have to do this to?
Please help. Any insight wouyld be appreciated.
Confused and frustrated...

Give this a try: apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
