HT3430 Can't open a Keynote 09 presentation in Keynote 08

Keynote 09 does not have a "Save As" option so there doesn't seem to be a way to open a Keynote 09 presentation on Keynote 08.

Keynote projects are not backward compatible:
Keynote 09 projects can not be opened in Keynote 08, they are different file types.
Either arrange to have the project saved as an 08 project   press the option key then;   file > save as
file save as > save a copy in 08 format
or purchase Keynote 09

  • Can I open iPad keynote and iPad pages on a PC Microsoft word and a PC Microsoft PowerPoint? also the other way around?

    Can I open iPad keynote and iPad pages on a PC Microsoft word and a PC Microsoft PowerPoint? also the other way around?

    Yes. You can export iPad Pages and Keynote files as Word and PowerPoint files and you can upload/transfer/email Word and PowerPoint files to the iPad and work on them in Pages and Keynote.
    Be advised that there will be some degree of formatting issues and also that the iOS versions of Pges and Keynote do not the full functionality of Word and PowerPoint on a computer.

  • Can you open a keynote presentation in PowerPoint and vice versa?

    I've opened a powerpoint presentation in Keynote but had trouble opening a Keynote in Powerpoint.  I wasn't sure if it was just that particular keynote or is does it just not work.  I know some formatting sometimes get lost.  What's the quality like when doing both?

    But you can open a powerpoint in Keynote.
    Correct?
    Yes correct
    I'm not sure what you mean by "you must export to powerpoint in keynote to convert files".  How do you do that?
    In Keynote;    File > Export > PowerPoint

  • Can't open new keynote presentation

    I just created a new keynote presentation and have the most recent updates on keynote. But I receive a notice that I "need a newer version of keynote to open this document."
    What's the problem?

    You have two versions of Keynote; the previous version 5 (which lives in Applications > iWork 09) and the new version 6 which lives in Applications.
    You get the "you need a newer version to open" message when a file created in 6 is being opened by 5.
    if you right click a version 5 file and select Get Info, in the Open with section select Keynote 5,
    then click change all.
    Perform a similar exercise on a version 6 file but select open with Keynote 6.

  • How can I open a keynote file that was made in Keynote Beta and downloaded from the web?

    I have Keynote version 5.3
    I want to edit a Keynote presentation made originally in Keynote Beta on the web.
    When I download it in .key it wont let me edit the file because it says I need a newer version of Keynote.
    When I try to download Keynote 6.0.1 I'm told I can't because I need a newer operating system!! I currently have 10.7.5 and there are no new updates.

  • How can I open my keynote files in powerpoint?

    I just got Keynote. Igot it thinking that it was compatible with PPT files, but I am running into the deadends in which a converter is required to boot the program. Can anyone out there help me?

    You can import a ppt into Keynote simply by opening it the same way you would open a keynote file, though not all transitions/layouts/embedded media and the like may import smoothly.
    To export a Keynote presentation as a ppt, from the menu bar: Share > Export > ppt

  • Keynote can't open specific keynote files

    I have the recurring problem that Keynote is not able to open the files it created. It seems to be related to using specific line types.
    I can work with the presentation a while and then the time to load the file will extend and extend and finally keynote won't open the file at all with the unhelpful message, that it can't open the file :-(
    An example of such a file is here: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/3096725/images_20120817.key
    Any idea what is going on here and how to deal with the issue?
    Stefan

    A number of users have cured this problem by removing Keynote and reinstalling, so I would give that a try.
    Use search or an application uninstaller such as the free Appcleaner to locate all the Keynote files on your Machine and then delete them.

  • Can't open my keynote presentation due to icloud drive

    Hi,
    I have an error when trying to open my presentation that I saved on icloud:
    "Sorry icloud drive is not compatible with maverick.. please update to Yosemite"
    a week ago it was working perfectly.
    - It appears that Yosemite can't be downloaded
    - I tried to contact the apple support but the chat doesn't work... and you can't go back to choose another method to call apple care.
    - I can't use my office number because apple doesn't handle phone extension.
    - When finally reached them they said that I was calling the wrong service: iphone/ipad. So they hangout...
    I used an old presentation for my conference. Thank you apple, hopefully I subscribed to apple care.
    By the way the last version of keynote save as folder. Which isn't practical for sharing.

    Use your backup file you saved on your local hard drive, iCloud is not reliable for storing files.

  • Can't Open a Keynote Presentation - Says "Presentation Can't be Opened"

    I have one presentation . . . The one I need next week.  HA!  I was halfway through creation - Went back after a meal, tried to open . . . Box Popos Up says, "Presentation Can't Be Opened"
    Any help would be apprecieated.
    I tried: 
    Shutting down the program via double click and swipe close
    Copying (same thing)
    ReStarting the ipad
    Resetting the ipad
    THANK YOU FOR ANY HELP

    You'll need to Compress or Archive the file before attempting to FTP. FTP files are actually "folders" with all the info needed to recreate the presentation. Because where you're FTP-ing to probably won't understand how this file system works, it's best to Right-Click on the .key file then choose "Compress" or "Archive" and send that .zip file that gets created.

  • Can't open my keynote!!!

    Hi there!
    I have two macbooks... I did a keynote presentation on one of them, and moved it to the other. Now the keynote won't open! - it says I need to launch an update, but I already did, and I also restarted my computer a number of times. I have tried to get it to open in an older version of keynote, but that doesn't work either, as it says that there is an update, takes me to the app store, where I can't do anything, as the update already is installed.... Tried to DELETE keynote, restart computer and download it again - still doesent work! - what do I do??????

    Use your backup file you saved on your local hard drive, iCloud is not reliable for storing files.

  • PowerPoint can't open saved Keynote docs

    Recently, any Keynote I make and save as a PowerPoint is corrupt. Keynote can open it fine, but PowerPoint can't. Is there a way to fix this?

    Everyone is having this problem right now. Seems like there may be more to it than just the grouping issue that laurent commented about. I also read that you need to convert all graphics to RGB instead of CYMK.
    I for one, don't understand why it is taking so long for them to get this figured out - they should just convert the images and groups to support PPT - I know MS cares less and will never support us Apple users. Maybe Apple could give us a break on this one...

  • Can NOT open MS Power Point presentations

    I try to open a Microsoft Office Power Point viewer 2007 PPS file and I get an error message as follows:
    Usage :

    /?, shows this help message
    OK ??
    I hope someone can help Had no problem before switching to Foxfire.. which I Love

    Hopefully you opted to install Rosetta along with the install. If so then do a get-info on the PP icon and select Rosetta. You may also need to resolve duplicate fonts in Font Book.

  • TS3991 I can't open several Keynote files

    I use iCloud. I get an error message that there was a problem opening the file. I have now way of accessing these files. They will not open on any of my devices: iPhone, iPad and MBP.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It sounds to me as though the document has become corrupt. You can try and download it from one device or another, however this may be unsuccessful.
    Whilst it won't help you recover documents that have already become corrupt, can I suggest you get into the habit of backing up your documents in the cloud regularly.

    we are implementing  BusinessObjects 4.0 and in the process of documenting road map for promotion. BusinessObjects does not have Import Wizard so we will be using LCM for all our promotions.
    Since we are not able to determined whats inside the biar files by looking at the binary files, is there any way using LCM we can figure out whats laying inside the Biar file? before doing the promotion.
    I am assuming if its not possible than we are basically trusting the developer, and need to keep good documentation of this process?
