An error occurred while downloading one or more photos for the slideshow. Please try again later.

Has anybody been able to resolve this. I am unable to create a slideshow for a birthday celebration due to this error, even though I have all original downloaded locally on may MacBook.

Hi Tony,


Indeed I verified this and upon attempting to exporting the unmodified originals of all the photos in the album that I was trying to create the slideshow from, I identified that one of the photos was giving an "Unkown error". As soon as I eliminate that photo from the album, the slideshow creation was successful. Too bad my event was yesterday and I only discovered this now :)


The Photos messages errors could maybe be more explicit. I am not sure why that photo had this error and I was only able to resolve it by deleting the photo.


Thanks,

Razvan
