    I've been running Expression Media 2 on a Mac for a long time without problems. I use the software for slide presentations. Within the last two weeks, there is suddenly a problem. When I highlight an image and begin the slideshow, a random image appears from elsewhere in the catalog (thus forcing me to click through dozens or hundreds of images to get to the right starting place...very frustrating). Please advise. Much thanks,

    Alec

    Hi Alain,

    JP and I talked this over. Are you sure that the first image you want to play is selected, yes? Also that you don't have your options set to play slide show randomly? (It's a checkbox in Make --> Slide show options.)

    Regards,

    I am experiencing a related problem with EM2 slide shows on my Mac. Sometimes, the first image that appears is not what I expect but seems to have been picked up randomly from the catalog by the Software.

    The option to play randomly was indeed set. This explains my problem.

    Thank You
