Help! Photoshoot of kids


I have a weeklong photoshoot of kids doing outdoor and indoor activities. My camera is a Nikon Coolpix 8700 and I am shooting with a Nikon Speedlight SB-600 as needed. Today I had 2 problems—1: the photos have too much noise when zoomed in from iPhoto. I set the iso to 50, but the iso # doesn't show up when I try to check it in iPhoto. Does anyone know why?
—2: I am new to photography (my strength is composition) ... There are ambient lights in the room—when I bounce the flash off the ceiling, many of my photos are too dark. How much can I adjust exposure in iPhoto? I'd rather shoot it right.

Thanks for any advice you can give.
