Can I create slides automatically using a master slide with text placeholders if I have a database of the content?

I'm using Keynote, and I have a presentation that is over 100 slides all identical to the master slide. There are several placeholder text elements, and I have a database of all the text elements.
Is there any way to do a "merge" to create the slides automatically using the master slide template?

Sure, you can build in and out as many text boxes as you like -- just add a new text box, put in the text, and set the build for it. Do be aware, however, that the timing you get will not be very precise.
If you specifically want to present song lyrics synched to audio, you might find that there are better alternatives than Keynote. Brian Peat, who contributes here regularly, has a comprehensive list of song presentation software. This list may have a better option for you.

  • Can I create a network using a DSL Gateway with iPad

    My brother and I purchased an iPad for our mum. She can see next doors Netgear WiFi but unfortunately they do not know the the security number to give mum access.
    So we were wondering if there is a way of creating a new network using an old wireless router we have that is spare?
    Mum doesn't have a PC so we cannot set one up that way. Is there anyway that the router could be set up using the iPad itself?
    Presumably you have to have something hardwired to the router to make the settings?
    Basically can I configure/troubleshoot the modem/router using just the iPad? I know some configurations are accessed through just a web browser, and I wasn't sure if the iPad Safari would support that.
    And what if somebody was setting up a modem from scratch?
    Would they be able to do everything from the iPad?

    As I mentioned before, you'd have to consult the manual for your WiFi router to see if it can be configured without a wired connection initially. You haven't said what router it is so it's impossible to advise further.
    It would be easier to set it up initially on a laptop though, and once setup, you should be able to use the iPad to access the web interface to change settings. I often access the web interface of my D-Link router to change settings and even reboot the router when necessary.
    The iPad is designed not to be used as a standalone device, but to be used in conjunction with a computer. Without a computer, your Mum will not be able to sync it, back it up, install updates, transfer files, restore it or fix problems that may occur.

  • Can't create connection pool using weblogic 6.1 with Oracle thin driver

    Hi Joe !
    I didn't get what you would like to point out. Actully, I am using same config.,
    but not to disclose the info. I gave you @test and username/password xxx/xxx.Ok. Now, assuming your pool looks like what I showed, the issue is probably
    that there are multiple Oracle driver zips around, and your standlaone program
    is using a different, newer, better one than the server. Our weblogic jar files
    include a classes12.zip Oracle thin driver, but there are multiple versions of
    classes12.zip, and the latest from oracle is better than the one we sealed into
    our packaging. Please use jave -verbose to identify exactly which Oracle sip file
    you are using in the successful case, then make sure this zip file comes before
    any weblogic stuff in your weblogic server's classpath, so we'll use the same
    driver. This should work. Edit the script you sue to start weblogic to verify
    the classpath does end up with the oracle driver ahead of all weblogic stuff.

  • Can I put multiple object placeholder in Master slide?

    I would like to know if I can creat multiple object placeholder in Master slide or not.  After searching the disccusion, seems that this problem occur since Keynote 03 and is not improved till Keynote 09 now.  In fact, I would like to make a slide show of multiple photos, but I would like to arrange several photos in one slide and exactly the same position and size in each slide.  So, it would be easiler if I can make a master slide with mulitple object placeholders.  Can anyone help or if there is any alternative ways? Thank you.

  • How can I create an automatically updating date in my template?

    I've created a template using Pages 5 for Mac, but I want to include a date in the header which shows the date the document was created. I've noticed that this is possible with the default Apple-designed templates included with Pages. I know that I can insert a date by going to Insert › Date & Time, but this only shows the date the template was created, and not the current date (I also know that you can click on the date and select 'Go to Today', but I often forget and it's a hassle).
    Does anyone know if this is possible?

    Matthew,
    It does appear that the auto update of Date and Time is gone. If you click on the calendar icon associated with the date object, you can update all instances of Date in your document at once. If that's not good enough, you can Insert a table, one with no headers or footers, shrink it to one cell, set borders to none, and insert the formula:
    =TODAY().
    Format the cell to display the date and time as  you wish.
    Alignment can be a problem with inline tables, so you could add an entire sentence in that cell by writing:
    ="Date printed: "&=TODAY()
    Here's an example with the table Selected...
    and here is what it will look like after formatting..
    Now if you move this table to the Section Master, it will appear on each page.

  • Use different master spreads with autoflow

    Hello,
    I have an XML document which I import into InDesign and apply some paragraph styles via XSL and the aid:pstyle attribute. This works fine and I can apply master spreads to pages with special paragraph styles by scripting.
    The problem is, that I use the autoflow function of InDesign CS5 and this creates pages which all base on the same master spread. If I reapply another master spread to a page manually the master (text frame) objects lie in the background; the already flowed text stays in text frames on top of the master text frames and doesn't flow through the new master text frames. I even don't know how to reflow this manually - not to mention how to do it by script.
    Has someone any idea how to achieve this reflow or how to use multiple master spreads with the autoflow function (maybe there is a configuration possibility to automatically select the master spread according to a paragraph style)?

    Nope. (well, of course it's always good to set it up before you start...)
    New master threads can be created after flowing the text too.
    If someone really messes up the setup, AF Pro even has a "Rebuild Current Story" option which will pick up everything about the master text frames even after the text in flowed into the document.
    I'm really proud of how it works!

    Where is the Apple problem? I have CS4 and CS5 running perfectly fine on my Macbook Pro. Installed 5 after Lion upgrade. Worth every cent. Adobe did have some catching up to do with Lion but with the CS5.5 update all runs fine. But not yours. So it is a problem with the Lion OS? You say you have been with Adobe since 2005. So you would be aware of all the other issues that Adobe had catching up with past Oss in Mac and Windows then. They get it right, but it is up to them. It is not up to Apple, nor Microsoft for that matter, to run around and check that every software developer in the world is running their business properly.
    And what has politics got to do with anything. Some people just have to blame Software for their poor Hardware maintainence of failure of the same.

  • HT1539 How can a digital copy be used in a household with multiple apple ids, synced on the same computer?

    How can a digital copy be used in a household with multiple apple ids, synced on the same computer?  I want to put a digital copy on my device, and on my wife's device.
    Please help.

    you're welcome.
    actually, unless you take an extra step, the first opened swf will close.  if you want the 2nd to close, the initial receiving lc will send a message to sender that causes the sender to close.
