Can I insert a powerpoint presentation in Keynote

Can I insert a small powerpoint presentation on one of my keynote slides - I'd like to be able to keep the keynote presentation running, but click and bring up the powerpoint slides and when done - I need it to go back to my keynote slides.
When I try to insert - the .pptx files are greyed out.

Open the PowerPoint file in Keynote:     File >Open
copy and paste these slides into the other presentation at the place you want them to show

  • How can i insert a song in a keynote presentation?

    How can i insert a song in a keynote presentation?
    Thanks for tour help.

    Hmmm... I made the opening in motion, and have set it as a opening bumer. So what I typically do is drag it in to the project time line from the right side of the screen (where my bumbers are) and then add the audio (from itunes) on top of it. So that audio is being duplicated on every single event. This was the only way I knew to do it so I could easily change the date without having to always set the right keyframes. (If there is an easier way, please let me know.)
    For the ending bumber I just use a small video clip I made and insert it in each timeline. So I'm assuming that is also being duplicated every single time.

    Firefox doesn't have any built-in ability to display PowerPoint files in a tab. You can check how Firefox is set to handle PowerPoint files in the Options dialog:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Applications
    ''This list may take a while to load.'' In the search box above the list, you can type pow and let Firefox filter it down. Usually these would say "Always Ask" but you might have customized them to "Use Microsoft Powerpoint".
    There are some sites that have a Flash-based PowerPoint viewer, such as OneDrive/SkyDrive and SlideShare. Maybe Gmail has one now, too, I haven't checked. But all such sites also should have a separate download button, either before showing their viewer or as part of the viewer. If there are particular sites where you notice this problem, maybe someone know how to bypass the viewer on that site and go straight to a download.

  • Changing template background from a powerpoint presentation in Keynote?

    Is simple to change the background template from a powerpoint presentation in Keynote?
    In powerpoint it is very simple but I need to know if it is also in keynote and how, of course without erase the data from the presentation.  I have many powerpoint, excel and word files from MsOffice 07' and I need to know if I can change to iWorks without problems and if it will take me to much time to do it.

    It could not be simpler;   click on Themes in the tool bar and select a theme:

  • When I open a powerpoint presentation in Keynote I only see the first 8 slides

    When I open a powerpoint presentation in Keynote I only see the first 8 slides.  Any ideas?

    Curious.
    If I had this problem I would try the followinng:
    open the PPt file in PowerPoint (or Open Office for Mac, which is a free and  reliable option to MS Office) save it  as a PPt file and open in Keynote
    open in PPt or Open Office,  save all the slides as individual TIFF files and bring those into Keynote ( builds would not work on individual text or objects on a slide but at least you have the content)
    Open Office

  • Why can't I open my Powerpoint presentations with Keynote in my new Ipad 4 although?

    Im using Icloud to share the powerpoint file from my windows to my Ipad. But, I still can open my powerpoint presentations neither in my Iphone.. Can someone help me, please. Thank you.

    I have checked the list of supported cameras and mine appears to be there.
    Yes, the Panasonic FZ45 is listed but it was first supported by Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 6.2.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    Then go to this table to see which versions of Photoshop are compatible with ACR 6.2: CS5 and later. Not CS3.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
    So your options are to upgrade to CS6 or subscribe to CC (check out the Photoshop Photography Program: PS CC + Lightroom 5).
    Or download the free DNG converter, convert all your FZ75 Raw files to DNGs then open the DNGs in CS3

  • Can his PC with Powerpoint read the Keynote file (not video) I send to him?

    My friend is going to upload his Powerpoint presentation (made on his PC) to my Public Folder in my iDisk. Then I am going to convert the PP presentation to a Keynote presentation, which will subsequently be uploaded as video to his website and to Youtube.
    QUESTION: If I send him the finished product, remade in my Keynote, but Not in video form, can he then run that program in his PC? If so, would he need a Keypoint Reader? Or is it impossible?

  • How do I convert a powerpoint presentation to Keynote?

    I am new to Mac and have a lot of Powerpoint presentations. I would like to try to convert some to Keynote. Can anyone give me hints on how to do this without spending a huge amount of time. Thanks in advance.

    Welcome to the discussions, Vickt*.
    Keynote can open most older PowerPoint files with a few issues that remain (like fonts and some features that only PowerPoint has). The best thing to do is just open a few to see what your problems are going to be. After going through those few, you'll have a better idea of what issues you're going to see down the line.
    There's no Batch way to do this, though, you have to open each one in Keynote then Save it to create a .key file.

  • Can you open a powerpoint presentation in pages?

    I have a powerpoint presentation sent to me from a client that needs to be editable in pages. There are no animations and the size is 8.5 x 11. Can this be opened in pages in a editable format?

    Kelley,
    No, you can't open PPT files in Pages. If you plan to do this often, purchase Keynote. The other option is to use OpenOffice or LibreOffice.

  • How can i insert a heart shape into keynote

    Hi I am new to IMAC and want to insert a heart shape into Keynote so I can colour code it and write text inside - can someone help please -I've tried the drawing tool but no success!! thanks

    "I've tried the draw tool but no success." - Do you mean the tool in the shapes pull-down? It seems to work for me, but I'm not an artist. You might try importing a heart shape you want then use the draw tool to trace around it to get the correct outline you are looking for. When making a shape with the drawing tool, don't forget to place the last edit point over the first and double-click to complete the shape outline. Once drawn, use the graphic tab of the Inspector to assign a fill color. Clicking inside the shape should allow you to add text.
    Good luck.
