Software :: Creating A Looping Slideshow With Keynote
Jan 26, 2009
I have created a presentation with transitions and actions etc. I want to place this presentation on another computer (pc) so that it works as a looping slideshow through a projector.
What are the settings in keynote so that the transitions and the slide to slide change (i have dissolve transitions) is also slow and easy as it should be.
I have a Keynote '08 slide show that I need to add multiple tracks of music to. The music needs to be timed for segments in the presentation. What is the best way to do this if at all?
I recently installed Keynote 2009. I am trying to display a slide show in the Keynote 2009 window instead of full screen. I spoke with Apple support and was informed this feature was not available and to submit a feedback form. I have done as asked by Apple support. The current work around is to export the presentation to Apple Quicktime. Does anyone know a better work around to display my presentation in a window instead of full screen?
I have a bunch of pictures and I need to make a slideshow out of them. I know that Preview does that but I need it to also start again when it finishes. How would I go about doing that?
I am having an odd pproblem with a MacBook Pro. When I boot, 95% of the time, the Apple sound will loop continuously and the Notebook will not boot. In every 10 tries, I will have a chance to get the machine to boot up into the OS, and after a little while the Display will start to flash randomly and the machine will freeze. only a force shutdown seems to bring you out the freeze, but then you can't always get back into the OS because of the looping Apple Startup sound.It gets stuck at the exact same moment, right after the apple sound is finished, but loops.. So What I'm trying to say is that it doesn't get stuck at random moments, only just as the apple sound is finished playing, then it plays over, and over and over
I've done a general search but am coming up empty. Is there a way to loop a video (e.g., DVD) on my Mac, but lock the keyboard to prevent others from fooling around with the computer while the video is running? I'm going to a convention/fair and would like interested people to look at a video, but not to mess around with the laptop.
I have a MacBook, late 2008 It originally had 120 GB hard drive. Because I had less than 10 GB of space left, I replaced that with a 320 Western Digital Scorpio Blue HD (by myself, with an antistatic strap, etc). Everything seemed fine for a few days. Lots of space, immediate responsiveness with programmes, etc....nothing could be better. Then the system started getting sluggish, and I started getting spinning beach ball clicking between apps. Every time I ran verify disk permissions, there was a long list of permission repairs. Running repair disk never yielded a result other than everything being okay. I even created a flashdrive with the installation software. And I ran Onyx to try to clean things out.
Then a few days ago, after restarting my computer (I may have done an update, but am not sure), my computer slowly booted up, came to the login screen, I entered my password, my desktop appeared and it "hung" for about 30 seconds, then the screen turned blue and went back to login screen. I made several attempts to login, but always got the same result.
I used my bootable flashdrive (which I created with SuperDuper to contain the installation disk before I installed the new hard drive) to check and repair permissions. Each time I did that, I got the same permission errors. Again, nothing detected with disk verification/repair. When I start up the computer in safe mode, everything is fine except Safari kept crashing. Deleted and reinstalled safari to no avail. Still crashed. No problem in Firefox. In the regular mode (not safe mode), I reinstalled Flash, restarted, then back to the looping to the login screen. Still no problems in safe mode. At first I thought there would have been something with the new hard drive, but everything works fine in Safe Mode, so I'm wondering if there is something with Safari or Flash. I've updated ClamX and run a ClamX scan as well to check for viruses/Trojans.
I am looking for a eSata expresscard for my MacBook Pro. I have a problem with looping my G Drive external through my firewire soundcard due to the single bus on the mbp. It just doesn't like it. What eSata expresscard adaptor would you recommend so i can hook my G Drive upto it?
I try and start my computer, it gives the boot sound, comes up to the password screen, accepts the correct password, gives a white screen, then returns to the password screen. I am running Lion 10.7.4 Any solutions before I call and take it in to Apple?
does anyone know what i can do with my mac os x 10.4.9 version, it keeps on saying that i need to restart it but then same thing happens all over again. it also says of stuff like debugger called panic and darwin kernel version-ish. which i have no idea with.rang mac and they say its a hardware problem.if anyone has encountered this before and have resolved it
Complete with music and transitions? Is this something that iDVD can do? I need it for a mates birthday party and was going to play a slideshow of him growing up, no one there will have a Mac and I'm not taking mine, so was wondering how I can get the slideshow on a dvd... complete with transitions and music.
I need to make a slideshow with a ton of impact, I have about 80 images and and what we have now is very basic, check it out .its way too slow for the amount of pictures takes an eternity to get through.We found this slideshow on the net.its very effective and you can see our pictures in a minimal amount of time. Only problem is i have no idea how to replicate this effect, I was thinking maybe premier pro but have had a look and cant get anywhere close to it.
I want it to look exactly like it does on iphoto. I read somewhere they said to share it with idvd, but it does not look the same. Everything is different from the music to the way the pictures are changed and the timing. Is there a way I can burn it from iphoto (the slide show) to a dvd? If not why is it not the same on idvd?
I am attempting to connect my MacBook Pro to my TV to view a slideshow on my TV. I connecting the DVI - HDMI cord from my Mac to my tv. The desktop wallpaper is displayed on my TV, but I cannot view slideshow, pictures or anything else.
I may be missing something here so if it's obvious I apologise..
In iPhoto 09 I've created an album of images I would like to use as a slideshow and send that slideshow to iDVD. So, I select all the images, press the slideshow Play button and the slideshow plays. I can change the theme etc, but can't see a way to save this or share to iDVD whilst retaining the slideshow settings.
Am I being really really stupid or is the Slideshow in iPhoto 09 a "view only" from within iPhoto and can't be saved and exported?
I think it may have been possible in 08 but I'm not sure.
Ultimately I want to create 3 x different Slideshows using 3 of the new 09 themes and send them to iDVD, but can see how to save/export/share the slideshow whilst retaining the settings I choose.
I created a slideshow in Keynote and imported it to IDVD to burn it. I want a 3 second transition on each slide. My show is 83 slides, so run time is approx 4 minutes. I set slideshow to run in a loop.Here's my problem: I want to have 9 songs (approx 36 minutes run time) on my slideshow. After the show runs once and starts to loop, I'd like it to continue with the next songs not start the audio back at the first song.
I have assembled a sideshow for my wedding in iMovie.
I need to get this sideshow onto a DVD now to take with me to the reception. I have read from others to use iDVD. I quickly tried and i lose the music when I do it. Anyone have any ideas how to easily make a DVD from my iMovie sideshow that is synced to music?
I have set up a few slides in Keynote 09, but I am having difficulty previewing the slides in the slideshow mode.
The video tutorial for Keynote 09 says to highlight the first slide, and then click onto Play button at the top of the menu bar. I have also set up an effect and duration time for each slide, and I have set Start Transition to "Automatically," with a delay of 0.5 seconds.
As a result, when I attempt to preview the slideshow, one of the slides in the middle of the slideshow is hightlighted, and then the process suddenly stops.
how to correctly set up the slideshow within Keynote 09 so that the slideshow can be previewed, and ultimately played, in automatic mode.
I have created a slideshow containing some photos of me and my fiance. Now I need to save this slideshow as a file. I tried to look at the settings and other places to figure it out but unfortunately couldn't do it.
I need this for a little slide in our wedding and it would be much appreciated if anyone have an idea about it.
I need to show a repeating slidewhow via a lcd projector using my MB-A running iPhoto. Is there some way I can a) shut off the screen to save battery life or b) close the lid of the MB-A with the same effect?
I have loaded photos to a flashdrive and would like to use my MacBook to present a slideshow, but would like to have control over length of time slides are shown and change slides when I want. Is going on iPhoto the only way, and if so how do I control the slides individually?
I have created a slideshow in iPhoto but I can't figure out how to burn it so that it plays on my DVD player.I have read that I need iDVD but I can't find that...
