Problem with slideshow

Hi,


When I want to see my photo albums in slideshow, it does'nt work very well.

Many times, the slideshow stops (during about 30 or 40 seconds) and than operate again. It stops several times like that while i am watching an album.

How is it possible to fix that problem?


With best regards

iPad (4th gen) Wi-Fi, iOS 9.3

Hi manasky,

I understand you are having issues playing a slideshow on your iPad. I'm assuming you are looking at albums in the Photos app on your iPad. Are you having an issue with one album, or with any album that you play on your iPad? Are you using iCloud Photo Library with "optimized" settings? If so, for one album, you can try downloading the pictures to your iPad so that you aren't dependent on an internet connection. With the files on your iPad, does the album play smoother?

iCloud Photo Library FAQ

If you turn on Optimize [device] Storage, iCloud Photo Library will automatically manage the size of your library on your device, so you can make the most of your device's storage and access more photos than ever. All of your original, full-resolution photos and videos are stored in iCloud while device-size versions are kept on your device. You can download the original photos and videos over Wi-Fi or cellular when you need them.

You need an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.


Take care,

Hi judysings

Thanks for your answer.


Yes, i am talking about the slideshow option in the photo application, on my Ipad.

I don't use at all the icloud photo librairy.

I have many photos in the camera roll of the ipad, that i tranfered from my pc via photosync.

These photos are organized in albums in the photo application.

I have the same problem for all the albums.


When I watch an album, the slideshow stops many times (during about 30 or 40 seconds), than it operates again, and it stops again...

When it stops, there is an icon like a clock in the right bottom corner (a white circle with a little triangle inside).

In total, i have many photos (more than 50 000), but each album is not very big (some albums have only 50 photos but the problem is the same for them too).
