1452100 2018-07-29 02:49:00 My wife has recently returned from an overseas trip, with about 300 photos taken on her iPad. She is showing some of these to a group using someone else's laptop. All the photos have been downloaded to our computer (win10), and I have loaded a few to a thumb drive and had a slide show on the computer. I assume the software that produces the slideshow is in windows, but don't know what OS the laptop uses. Does apple OS have a slideshow function? Brucem (8688)
1452101 2018-07-29 04:03:00 I would guess it does. Most O/Ss have one on the default photo viewer. Linux does....not one I needed to download.

Googling tells me the Mac one is called Preview. and you can chnage that if you want.

If the slideshow contains a video as well it will play the video, then move onto the next picture / Video

The problem is there is no option by default to set a timer /picture, so you can select the first Photo, and click the arrow on the right ( about the middle of the page) to forward to next photo.

If you want some speed control - Reinstall Windows Photo Viewer, open the first photo and then click on slideshow, right click a blank spot - you can then adjust the Speed.

to install the old photo viewer there's a reg file that you simply double click and its back (I can upload if you want it)

As for MAC's -- Just looked - seems its not quite so easy as windows and Linux. (maybe the MAC users can advise)
