Urgent iPhoto help re: Slideshow project duration

I'm trying to set a custom duration for a slideshow project in iPhoto and every time I go out and back into the project, the custom duration resets to the minimum. Is there a way to change the default duration per slide or get the custom duration to stick?

You do mean Photos, not iPhoto, right?


Boot into Safe Mode (Use Safe Mode to isoloate issues with your Mac) and test the sideshow duration there. Reboot normally and test again.

NOTE: Safe Mode boot can take up to 10 minutes as it's doing some system cache cleaning, volume verifying and directory repairing. 

If the problem remains log into another user account and see if the problem persists there in Photos. (This tells us if the problem is limited to your user account or is system wide).
