Bell Flyer:
Does anyone know why when I export my iphoto slide show to iDVD, all of my iPhoto themes like Scapbook, Shatter, Sliding Panels etc disappear?
My wife spent a LOT of time creating a couple of slideshows in iPhoto 08. Specific text, Ken Burns effects, transitions etc. We bought iPhoto 09 and installed it. Guess what, almost all of her hard work was lost with the install of '09.
We went to our local Apple store. They un-installed '09, re-installed '08, brought up a couple of '08 slideshows from our Time Machine backup, installed them and then installed iPhoto 09 again. Same result, the custom details of the slideshows were wiped out.
Nowhere in the Readme of iPhoto 09 was there any warning that previous customization would be lost.
I sent Apple a lengthy complaint. Did I receive an acknowledgement or even a reply? Not a peep.
Apple blew this big time in my view. Even if you had warning, installing '09 would destroy your custom features in your slideshow.
Apple love to claim that they just work, Bah.
