You could also make the slideshow in Photos 2.0 with no music, export it as a video, bring that video into iMovie and add the soundtrack to the video rather than a series of photos. If you have never used iMovie before, it may take some time to learn the interface.
But when you are done with the photos, drag and drop your songs to just under the video track and add the first song at the start, and then the second one right after the first one ends in the timeline. See my tutorial on creating a slideshow in iMovie. You can then drag and drop in the top list to reorder them.Īnother option for more control is to use something else, like iMovie, where you can highly customize the slideshow and put as many songs as you like in the audio track. Click that button and then look at the list of songs below - either songs from iTunes or songs included with Photos. This shows your selected music and a Music Library button under it. If you want to embed the video on the slide, simply click Insert. In the Choose a Movie dialog box, select the file you want to insert. On the Insert tab, click Video, then click Movie from File. Then click on the music icon button to the right. In Normal view, select the slide you'd like to add a video to. So in Photos 2.0, you choose Create Slideshow. All you need to do is to select more than one song.
