I have added a number of photos to a person and played them as a slideshow from the media window. I am looking for the ability to save that slideshow (with its accompanying music) as an independent file. The manual for my version 12 of Reunion (build 200602) says, "When clicking the Share button in the Thumbnails window and selecting Create Slideshow Project File, Reunion will build a slideshow and open the Slideshow Project window..." However, when I am in the Thumbnails window and click on the Share button, the only things that appear are these: Google Chrome, Preview/Print, Copy to Clipboard. There is no "Create Slideshow Project File" and I cannot find it anywhere else. I have tried selecting all the thumbnails, selecting one, deselecting all, and nowhere is there an option to create this project. And the slideshow shows all images in the thumbnail view, regardless of how many are actually selected, The only time the share button appears is when only one image is selected. So, what am I missing, or what is going wrong? Thanks!

Thank you, Roger, I got the correct options doing it like this. Seems strange that the options in the Media Window don't match the options in the Thumbnails window. Now that I've created and saved my slideshow, and created a .mov file from it, I'm having trouble getting it to play in Quicktime Version 10.4 (928.13), in OS X 10.13.6. It gives me an error message, "QuickTime Player can't open "Movie 027, Slideshow KateMorganHale.mov"." I'm not having a problem playing other files (.mov) with Quicktime. Any idea what may be wrong? Thanks again.

Thanks, Bob, I've intalled Quicktime Player 7. I was able to get the movie (.mov) to work on this, however, it doesn't have the accompanying music that the slideshow has. It's correctly in the preferences and is present in the independent slideshow played through Reunion, just not in the exported movie. Any suggestions? Thank you.

I have a theory..... after going crazy for awhile searching Apple Support and the App Store. Catalina was released 10/17/19. The QT 10.5 on my Macs shows a creation date of 9/15/19. I am unable to find either 10.4 or 10.5 for a download. The September date would be just about right for the final Gold Master for Catalina.
Thus, my suspicion is that both are only contained in the macOS updates they are related to. And are not available as an individual download.
Also, Dona actually downloaded an older version. Dona: QT 7 is from the early teens like 2012 or 2013.Bob White, Mac Nut Since 1985, Reunion Nut Since 1991
