Hardware :: Need A Wireless Clicker For Keynote Presentations
Nov 12, 2010
Any suggestions for a remote clicker? The little clicker that came with my Mac requires line-of-sight and thats not always convenient. I'd prefer a Bluetooth unit, but USB is OK. I just want something simple that will advance slides from where ever I am in the room.
I'm downloading power point presentations from my university website and trying to open them with Keynote. It starts to open it up then just stops about a third of the way through the progress bar. The activity monitor says that keynote is not responding. So, is it possible to open PP files with Keynote?
On attempts to save a 300Mb presentation, the blue bar fills up to the end and then stays on for almost 10min, then the Keynote crashes displaying: Keynote quit unexpectedly.
The iWork Public Beta allowed me to share Keynote presentations with anyone via the web. Now Apple tells me the Public Beta is being replaced by iCloud. How can I share a Keynote presentation online via iCloud? Must the presentation be downloaded to view?
As the title asks, does such a program exist? Seems like a countless number of them are available for PC's, but I can't find one for my Mac's. I want something to click on the "Are you still listening?" pop-up in Pandora, Sirius, etc. I need something with a variable interval setting, and a loop function to repeat the action.
I tried to get auto clicker for my mac, to play minecraft and I set it on the script to click 10 times a second. Now it wont let me click on the mouse or use the keyboard. I have tried turning it off and back on a few times and still nothing all I want to know is how to stop the script and let me play minecraft.
i had my friend send me some lecture presentations by email. they are all in .key format and unfortunately i have a hp netbook. i need someone to just quickly export the 4 lecture presentations into .ppt format so i can quickly jott down the notes and finish cramming for my exam. id get him to do it but he wont answer!
I have a problem with Office 2008. Every time that i receive a word document that has inside a powerpoint presentation and i double click it i get the message: word can not edit the microsoft powerpoint 97-2003 presentation. Also i have a CD that has some adobe and word documents attached to a powerpoint presentation and when i click on them i get a message that the path/object could not be found. But poth these document and CD when i put them in a PC they open without any problems.
When using pages i noticed that when exporting to word i lose some more advanced formating sometimes... so i`m afraid to lose the formating when doing the same to keynote (effects, pictures, charts and transitions..)
here's my problem, the 3d graphs in keynote look cool, but the categories at the x axis are unreadable. I want to turn this . I can do this in the 2d version and in the 3D version from powerpoint, but I cant find it in keynote?
I am a complete newbie to Keynote. Are there any books or websites that have good indepth literature to teach me how to get the most out of Keynote? I know there are video tutorials but I'd rather have a book that I can have sitting next to me when I am on my Macbook Pro or that I can read when I am out and about.
Do you know of a program that will allow my Mac (Snow Leopard) to play the music included with most Windows PPS slide shows. Keynote (a Mac program) displays the slide shows perfectly but I can never get the Music.
When Steve Jobs does his presentation he frequently uses a transition whereas a big announcement is being made, say, a price drop or a launch date the announcement is made with a transition that drops down and lands with a 'thud' and there is then smoke rising from the word that dropped down.
Can anyone tell me what transition this is and where I could get it to implement into my presentation?
When I click "Play" on my keynote presentation, the slides come up, but they only occupy the centre of the screen (eg: much smaller than the size of the screen).
I wanted someone to tell me if this is possible to do in Keynote:
say I have a Keynote presentation with four slides. In the first slide I have hyperlinks to pages 2, 3 and 4. Can I have a different transition effect for each slide so that when I click on hyperlink for slide 2 I have the cube transition, when I click on hyperlink for page 3 I have the flip transition... etc?
What is the best way for someone to save a Windows PPT file (XP version of PPT) that it will play the "most nicely" with Keynote? Does anyone know of any options on the Windows side that will help?
The main issues that I seem to be seeing are that the slides are opened in Keynote at 720x540 instead of 1024x768 and that there are a few font issues. I'm just wondering if there is anyway to "idiot" proof this and cut out any additional steps after opening the project on a Mac.
I think I speak for a lot of people when I ask all users of Keynote '09:
HAS THE KEYNOTE BUG BEEN FIXED??
In other words: has any one using the latest version of iWork and Mac OS X experienced a sudden reboot when pressing the play button?
The horrible sight of an unlit black screen and the dreadful noise of your drive spinning up, quickly followed by a hollow chime letting you know that everything you were busy with and hadn't saved is now Verschwunden?
I printed out some slides on Keynote. I put 4 slides to a page and they printed out fuzzy. Is it because I put 4 slides per page or some other option I need to change?
After I upgraded to Snow Leopard, when opening powerpoint files (PPT) in Keynote, the program will load 30% (in the progress bar) then Keynote will be non responsive and I will have to force quit the program.
Never had any problems with Keynote before but I use it quite a bit for presentations so you can see the obvious issues here.
I noticed that when I view a keynote presentation that has been exported to a pps, some of the functions don't work the same. For example the fly in effect appears very differently. Is there anything I should be doing?
I have purchased Keynote and Pages for my iMac and now need to use the same software on my MacBookAir, I was told that there was a way that I could do get the software on to my MacBook via bluetooth.
I have keynote,pages and numbers on my macbook.Do I have to purchase them aga
in or can I transfer these programs to my new mac desktop.These purchases are not showing up in my app store probably because I had them on my mac as a trial and just put a key in to buy them.
