thing #21

I spent thursday after noon and Friday creating a photostory and a switchpod account. I had 2 problems. The photostory would not let me load the backgroung music from my itunes. I converted the mp4 to mp3 and it still would not load. Any ideas?
My next problem was that when I uploaded my photostory (minus the music) switchpod gave me this message: The submitted file was of invalid type. I am going to e-mail them for details on that.
I almost forgot that when I downloaded photostory 3 to my home computer I had a lot of trouble, it didn't work well with vista. When my itunes wouldn't load for the background, I clicked on the red record button to narrate but I got a message that my computer has to be reconfigured. That sounded like trouble. I would rather look at using my school lap top to finish my photostory and upload it on switchpod.

Switchpod has had issues the last few days from what we can tell.
If your piece is a PhotoStory you do not need Switchpod to upload it....Photostory can be uploaded directly into Blogger
You must savethe project as a .wmv
There is a place in the middle of the saving screen to do that.
Then you just use the video button in your post box. Go here for a little more help PhotoStory Help

as for the music, not sure why, but Photostory has music included that you could use.
