iPhoto slideshow multiple songs

pianodude123 · Sep 22, 2006, 07:34 PM

Is there a way to add multiple songs to an iPhoto slideshow? I know there is a way to make the slides fit ONE song, but its kind of lame that you can add more than one song. Also, is there a viable way to change the duration of each slide?

I'm not aware of any way to do this in iPhoto, but you can do both in iMovie.

Welll the thing is...

I've already made a slideshow in iPhoto with all the pictures in order, and these pictures must be in a specific order, now I want to add 5 different soundtracks to this slideshow, but I dont know how to transfer it to iMovie...

To add multiple songs to an iPhoto slideshow you would first have to access your iTunes Music Library. On the left, at the bottom of playlists, click the + button to add a new playlist. Name it the same as your slideshow.

Then click on your 'music library' and drag the songs into the playlist you just created.

Go back to your slideshow, click on 'music' choose the multiple song album you just created. Play the slideshow to preview the results.

I'm guessing he figured something out, since this thread was from 3 years ago..

Except you don't need this advice from three years ago answering a question from six years ago.

iPhoto has evolved since then, no need for detours to iTunes anymore.
