Creating a "slide pool"

I would like to create a pool of slides on a topic, which would allow me to select slides for several customized presentations. I could then swap out slides to create individualized presentations for customer A, B, and C...without having to delete any slides. In other words, the slides would remain in the "slide pool" for future use, but wouldn't be included in the presentation for customer B.
I'm thinking this must be a fairly common wish, but I'm new to Keynote, and I can't figure out how to do it. Can anyone help me?

Okay...I think I've got this figured out. I'll just create a "master presentation" which I'll use to store all my slides. From that, I can create the customized versions.
TOO SIMPLE!
Sorry to have bothered those of you who took the time to read this.

  • Create A Connection Pool In the ServletContextListener

    The Specification says that we should create the connection pool in the ServletContextListener. I have the code for creating a connection pool (see below). How do I create it in the ServletContextListener?

    import javax.naming.InitialContext;

  • How do I create a slide show in iPhoto from an iCloud photo stream

    ow do I create a slide show in iPhoto from an iCloud photo stream?

    Do you mean from a Shared Stream or My Photo Stream?
    In iPhoto on your iPhone, iPad you create slideshow projects by selecting photos and then sharing them as a new slideshow. http://help.apple.com/iphoto/iphone/2.0/?handbuch#blnkbc26e276
    You can publish your slideshow in iCloud:  http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2333
    In iPhoto on your Mac you can make an instant slideshow by selecting the photos in the photo stream and pressing the slideshow button, see: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2333

  • How can I create a slide show and insert it into an email

    I created a slide show of some pictures I want to share with my sales associate but can't seem to figure out how to Email it.  any help would be appreciated!  Thank you!

    You will need to export it as a  QuickTime movie and share that.
    That said, movies are big files and many recipients will be less than delighted to get large attachments that can cause them problems in their mailboxes. Better to upload the movie somewhere and then email them a link. Dropbox is an excellent way to do this.]

  • How do I create a slide where users can upload a file to server or email a file?

    Could anyone guide me in how I could go about creating a slide where users can either email a file or upload it to my server?
    Any help would be greatly appriciated...
    Steve

    Hello,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    I am not sure how you can Upload a file, you might need a Javascript.
    You can create a slide and a button of that slide can call the default Email client (MS Outlook, Outlook Express....)
    1) On  you Slide insert a button (Insert -> Standard Object -> Button
    2) Double Click on that button and select "Open URL or file" for On Success (Under Properties Inspector)
    3) Write "mailto:[email protected]" in the URL box (For Example : [email protected])
    4) Publish the result, when you click on the button, it will call the default mail client.
    Screenshot :
    Note : This might not work if you have a Network Security which do not allow calling Mail Client through a Script (Clicking of Button calls the script)
    Thanks,

  • Newbie Here - How to Create a Slide Show in CS5?

    I am using Windows 7 and I am familiar with PSElements 8 where creating a slide show is easy.  I just want to create a slide show in CS5 (in Bridge??  View>Slideshow Options?) using vacation photos from several folders, and I want to order them manually.
    First, I can't figure out how to display more than one folder in the Content panel in Bridge.  Second, I can't figure out how to create and intersperse "blank" slides with text.   Third (and I haven't even gotten this far yet), how do I save the slide show and burn a VCD?  This was all so easy and intuitive in PSE8, I can't believe it seems nearly impossible in CS5! 
    As an alternative, should I simply re-save the photos as JPEGs (they are PSDs now), export them to a Desktop folder, open them in PSE8 and create the slide show there instead?   Thanks for any help and suggestions!

    1) Bridge has a new feature (can't think of the term at the moment) but it works like instancing or virtual copies. Select all of the photo's that you want and place them in the "collection" (Ah I knew I would think of it) Move to another folder and move them into the same collection and so on. These are virtual copies in that they don't really exist, but are a link to the original images. You then can use the collection for the slide show.
    2) Just create a page same size as your photo's in photoshop with what ever color background and put your text on it.
    3A)The slide show can be exported as a pdf or swf. Windows can then copy the file to a cd. If you choose swf, you may need to alter the html file (I assume it generates one, if not it isn't har to create one) The html file would help the web browser determine the correct size to display at. If you have flash, it can be used to create a html file as well.
    3B)If you would like the slide show to be displayed on a tv screen, then your cd/dvd will need to use a format that your dvd player can play, mp2 is the standard, but some can display jpg's, some are blue ray, etc. For exporting into the correct video format, then one of the following can be used. After Effects, Premeire pro, Encore, Photoshop (If you have quicktime installed and you are using one of the formats that quicktime supports like mp4)
    If you have quicktime installed, paying the 20 bucks may be worth it as it will allow you to take your jpg images and generate an animation file as avi or mov. But can save as mp4 as well.
    4) In Bridge you can select all of the images and run image processor on them. This plug in is part of photoshop there fore it will be in the menu's under photoshop. It will let you specify the files size, format and any actions, etc. It will then place them all into a folder that you specify.

  • How to Create a connection pool in OSB java callout

    Dear Team,
    In our project, we need read some data from DB, and do corresponding operation. currently, we need setup the connection first, execute the SQL, and close the connection.
    But the concurrency of call is very high, is there a way to create a connection pool, then we can use the connection pool to get the connection and execute the SQL, then return the connection to the pool.
    if connection pool is not available, is there any way to create the connection outside the java callout, that we can just execute the SQL in java callout.
    The OSB version is 11.1.1.6.0
    Thanks.
    Best Regards,
    Raysen Jia
    Edited by: Raysen Jia on Oct 16, 2012 8:44 AM

    Hi Team,
    Thanks for your help.
    What I need is not only the db connection, may be other kind of things, such as read configuration from file...
    If I write the code in java callout with static java method to create and close the connection, each time when request come in, OSB will create a new connection (or read the file), I think it's not the best practice to do this kind of work.
    I think the weblogic is running in JVM, is there any way we can define variables or new object in the JVM directly?

  • Error in creating a connection pool (No suitable driver)

    I try to create a connection pool in a Weblogic server 7.0 with the following config:
    URL:
    jdbc:oracle:oci9:@db_name
    Driver Classname:
    oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
    Properties(key=value):

    server=db_name
    protocol=oci
    my computer (windows 2000) has installed Oracle 9i client, and this connection
    pool will connect to Oracle 8i server. Besides, I have config classes12.zip in
    the "classpath" and ocijdbc9.dll in the "path" environment variables.
    Can Oracle 9i driver connect to a Oracle 8i server? Or there is other problems?
    Thanks in advance.

    Please try URL = jdbc:oracle:oci8:@db_name... that should be fine.
    Yes, you can connect to 8i oracle database using 9i driver.
    Also, make sure you have classes12.zip in classpath and ocijdbc9.dll in path.
    Thanks,

  • Error message while creating a new pool

    I am new to Oracle VM. I am trying to create a new pool and getting the following error message.
    OVM-2013 Please check login username and password for the Utility Server, username or password is invalid. Please help me.
    Thanks
    Sree

    I got the same erro when we are setuping our VM Servers on Dell Blade M/c.
    The problem was Sys admin Disabled the SSH Std Port 22 for minimize the external attack. The OVM UI is hardcoded the logic to see SSH on 22 and hence utility server can't be created or contacted. Might be this bug in existing code and should improve as to see the custom port for SSH if configured......

  • I created a slide show on work computer. Placed photos and movies in Media Browser. Want to use another computer (laptop) to give presentation. Do I need to copy media browser to laptop or are pictures and movies embedded in slide show and can go anywhere

    I created a slide show on my work computer and placed many photos and movies in my work computer's Media Browser. Want to use another computer (laptop) to give the presentation and therefore change location of slide show. Do I need to copy the media browser to the laptop or once the pictures and movies are embedded in the original slide show, can I take it anywhere and not worry about the media browser?
    I also want to optimize a movie for Keynote, so it's not too large a file. Please help.

    Graphic, sound and video files are copied into the Keynote file, but make sure Keynote > Preferences - include sound and movies check box is ticked.
    If you have added additional fonts they will need be changed to reflect what is on the destination machine.
    If the other machine has a different Keynote version, ensure the same transitions and effects are available.

  • I would like to create a slide show and then burn to a DVD.  I may be interested in adding music.  Should I use iPhone, iMovie or a simple Powerpoint?

    I am going to be creating a slide show and then burning it to a couple of DVDs.  I have used PPT in the past for simple slide shows for speaking engagements, but I am interested in adding music to this slide show.  What is the best/easiest application to use?  iMovie, iPhoto or Powerpoint?
    Thanks!
    Mike

    burning it to a couple of DVDs
    Is it your intention to create video DVDS that can be played on TV sets via DVD players?  If so you'll need a video DVD authoring application like iDVD.
    Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar.  For iPhoto 9.4.3 and earlier select Size = Medium or Large. For iPhoto 9.5 and later selct 480p.
    Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com.  Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago. 
    Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
    If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides  themes from iDVD 5-7.  The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them. 
    Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
    This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
    You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

  • How can I change the order of photos in iPhoto so I can create the slide show I want?

    How to change the order of photos in iPhoto on my iPad, so I can create the slide show I want.

    Here's what I did to generate a slide show with Ken Burns effect on the iPad...with the exact same slide order I created on the iMac.  I have iOS 5.5 and iPhoto App on New iPad, and iPhoto 11 on iMac.
    In iPhoto for the Mac, create a new Album and give it the name of your Slide Show. Drag or import the photos you want into the album.  Rearrange the order of the album photos as desired. Do this by selecting Manual Sort under View/Sort Photos or simply start dragging thumbnails to the places you want them (the sort method will automatically change to Manual). 
    When you have the order you want, shut down iPhoto on the Mac to make sure iPhoto's database gets updated with the new photos and their order. 
    Restart iPhoto and go to File/Export on the top menu.  Select File Export at the top left of the Export window. Set JPEG quality to Max, Size to Full Size, and File Name to Album Name and Number.  Set Subfolder Format to None.
    Click Export to bring up what looks like the Finder.  Create an empty folder on your hard drive under Pictures and give it the name of your slide show. Click on the new folder and then click OK at the bottom right of the Finder-like window.  The new folder will contain JPEG files with file names in the form, Album Name - 001.jpeg, Album Name - 002.jpeg, etc.  There will also be an iPOD Photo Cache folder.  Click at the top of the Name column to order files by file name.  001 will be your first slide, 002 your second, etc.
    Now start up iTunes. You are going to force the Mac to sync these new photos with the iPad.  Click on your iPad device in the list at the left.  Now click on the Photo button at top right. Make sure the Sync Photos check box at top is checked, then select Choose Folder... from the list at right.  In the Finder-like window that opens, select the folder where your slides are.  Make sure that All Folders is checked, then select Open at the bottom right.
    Now click Sync at bottom right.  The slides will be copied to your iPad.  Both the Photos app and the iPhoto app will properly handle the slide order, and the Ken Burns effect is available using the iPhoto app.
    I ran across this problem in preparing a Ken Burns slide show for a wedding.  Drove me nuts for a week why the order changes when syncing an iPhoto album from iMac to iPad.  But this worked and gave me several options.  I plan to use the digital AV adapter for iPad and show slides on a large screen TV using HDMI connection from iPad to TV.  TV essentially acts as an external monitor for the iPad.
    Hope this helps!

  • Create rrandom slides that are not quiz slides?

    Hi,
    None of the Quiz slide options provides the required quiz type I need, so I am going to create the whole course from scratch.
    I want to be able to create several slides with questions just from text I put on a blank slide, that when the user clicks a button to go to the next slide they will go to a random slide from a defined group of slides.
    Is this possible?
    If I create a slide Group, would it be possible to go to a random slide of that Group?
    I would also like to create a random starting slide so that a user does not get the same intro slide each time?
    cheers

    Hi there
    Unless someone has some fancy script to randomize things I'm going to claim it's not possible to randomize regular slides. However, I've always thought it would be a neat feature to have. I think I've subitted a feature request to ask for it in a future version. If you also believe as I do (and it sounds like you do) I'm hopeful that you and any others that feel this way will take a moment and submit a Feature Request to ask for this ability. (Link to the Feature Request is in my sig)
    Cheers... Rick
