What happened to Photos slideshows in Sequoia??

I also don't get what happened to the "Play Slideshow" function in Photos...

I can't chose standard themes anymore (e.g. Vintage Prints, Sliding Pannels, Origami etc.). Theme music not available either.

Finally, the Photo app does not record my previous settings.

Apple, please bring ithe old "Play Slideshow" back!!

Sequoia lost the ability and convenience of the Slideshow button within an album to play all the photos and videos within that album. Instead, it runs a short messy "memories" sampling and quickly stops. The INCONVENIENT workaround that "dinosaur" mentions does work, but this bug needs to be fixed by Apple.

Yeah, for some reason Apple got rid of all the options in the quick slideshow function - I just want to see my photos play in order, without all the zooming in and out and weird framing that we seem to be stuck with now. If you create a separate slideshow (File: Create: Slideshow: Photos) you get most of the options back, but if you have hundreds of albums like I do that's a pain in the neck, and horribly redundant - what's the point of albums anyway then?

I complained about this to Feedback - Photos - Apple and I hope everyone else does too.

We are not Apple here. People here are users like you. I agree that the new "Play Slideshow," which used to provide me with a simple and handy overview of a set of pictures, no longer works to provide a simple and handy overview. I am disappointed, and, as Keith Barkley suggested at the beginning of this thread, I left feedback here:

You should, too. That will have a much greater impact on Apple than saying the same thing over and over here.

I just moved up to Sequoia and I'm also frustrated by some changes to Photos Slideshow.

My problems (so far) are that several photos in a selected Album aren't displayed in the Slideshow (why?). I didn't have that problem with prior versions. Also, if I change the background music, the change doesn't seem to register. After ending the Slideshow and closing the Album, If I play it again as a Slideshow, the music I choose reverts to the original tune pre-selected by Apple. I think I clicked in the right spots to save the song I wanted for a particular Slideshow.

Again, just frustrating.

I’ve created slideshow on iMac using the File/ Create process. However when exporting the slideshow ( for use on an iPad) only a few of the videos play in the slideshow. The others play the sound but freeze on the initial video image. It sounds like it is a Sequoia bug.

Anybody have a way to get a clean working slideshow to iPad from iMac?

What computer do you have?

Problem with Apple Photo. Plays slides fine but freezes on the videos after Export.

Have tried taking video out and importing it back in again but this does not cure the problem. Any ideas?

Done feedback submitted. Very disappointed with this oversight and or bug fix as my new large VDU now rendered aweful when looking at slide shows.

Perhaps you should try File>Create>Slideshow>Photos. It's more versatile.
