Help with Keynote remote

Can someone help me set up the Keynote remote, please?
I was told the app no longer exists...
My MacBook is not "seeing" my iPhone.
All software up to date, all new devices...
What am I doing wrong?

I have installed the latest IOS 7.1 on both my iPhone and iPad 3. I use Keynote quite extensively and was using the Keynote Remote app on my iPhone until Apple recently trashed it out of the App store (I paid $ for this) and it worked for me. I thought that the built in app a good idea. That was until recently when I have had kinds of problems getting it to sync. I usually put the Keynote presentation together on my iMac. On the Cloud it goes to all my devices with no problem with updates, etc. Now when I try to show it on my iPad using my iPhone as a remote the iPhone does not seem to connect. This is even when trying both Bluetooth and WiFi and after I tried all of the solutions of shutting down and restarting, etc. I do see the iPhone is recognized as a remote, but it still does not pick up the connection. Somehow I wonder if the new upgrade to IOS 7.1 has something to do with this??? I am really exasperated as I need to get this working for my next presentation! Can anyone give me any idea of how to fix this? I have even quit the Apps in both the iPad and iPhone and restarted Keynote thinking this might be the problem.........still no solution.

Can you pair multiple machines with keynote remote

Is it possible to advance multiple machines running keynote using keynote remote?

Not quite sure what you are trying to do.
AppleTV can see different active itunes libraries running on Macs/PCs via Home Sharing, but AppleTV behaves as a single user device in teh sense you can't log on as different users.
iPads/iPhones can't 'pair' with AppleTv as such but can broadcast content via Airplay

Need Help with the Remote App

I am able to get this to work on my iMac at home but I was trying to help my dad get his remote App working and have not had any luck. Well, slight luck but only for about 1 minute. His computer is hard wired into the wifi router, ipod touch is wifi from same router. He uses CA Firewall (what Time Warner has as a perk to their road runner service). He has windows XP with the latest Microsoft, iTunes, and Remote software. Here is the problem, the iPod touch generates the pass code but the device list with the remote icon never appears. I got it working for 1 minute when I completely turned off the firewall but even with the firewall off it still then lost connection and couldnt find the library. Any ideas?? I am so confused. I made sure that iTunes was allowed through the firewall. I really want to get this working for him. Any help would be awesome!

Hrmm... nice job doing homework... Do you know, or can you find out, if port 3689 is open or blocked? If it's blocked, open it up. I believe this is the same port used for Music Sharing in iTunes, but it's also the port used by the Remote app.

Need some help with Keynote export

I want to create an swf file from Keynote that will be used in a looped Powerpoint slideshow. It will be no longer than 1 minute long.
I create the file and export as a .mov.
Then I used Visualhub to convert to an .swf. People have had lots of issues playing it
Then I converted the .mov file to .flv with Adobe Media Encoder, opened it in Flash and exported as .swf.
More problems.
I really like the ease of use and effects in keynote but the exporting is really bad.
Are there any alternatives programs for the mac.
I have already had a look at Sliderocket but it is web based which makes it slower and put images in slides a lot longer.
I really need to find a way of making decent swf files with good effects etc

Dave,
The issue seems to be with Flash and how it is converting the QuickTime movie, rather than an issue with Keynote. If the QuickTime movie plays fine in QuickTime Player, then the export from Keynote to QuickTime is fine and indeed the issue is in the conversion from QuickTime to Flash.
While this is not a forum for PowerPoint, check out the supported multimedia formats for PowerPoint - http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint/HA012303251033.aspx. Flash is not listed. So while it might play, you might consult Microsoft.
I would recommend using one of the following products to convert your QuickTime file to a PowerPoint supported format, other than Flash:
Flip4Mac
http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/overview.htm
Studio, Studio Pro, or Studio Pro HD. You can convert your QuickTime movies to WMV a fully supported format by PowerPoint. You can export to QuickTime and then use the Flip4Mac application to convert.
MPEG Streamclip
http://www.squared5.com
You can convert to various formats including AVI and MPG, both which PowerPoint supports. This is application can be found for both Mac and PC at.
Finally, a company does make Flash plugin tools "Flash Ready" for PowerPoint, due to the possible issues of adding Flash to PowerPoint. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/EM102525451033.aspx?pid=CE01030605 1033

Help with NAS Remote Access

Here's what I have:
Synology DS212J
Airport Extreme Base Station Gen 4 running latest firmware
Running Lion
Here's what I have done:
Changed NAS to use Manual Configuration. IP set to: 10.0.1.14 (after reading some forums here and there I have now changed this to 10.0.1.202 (to be outside the range of DCHP address)
In Airport Extreme I have configured Port Forwarding for port 80 and 7000 entering the private ip of the NAS 10.0.1.14 and now 10.0.1.202 and filled in the TCP ports with the appropriate port, restarted router.
After reading more posts in the forums I checked the NAS and my Mac Firewalls. Nothing...not turned on. I have since gone back into the NAS Firewall settings after reading a post to allow access for Photostation, File station...just in case it makes a differnece
Obtained a static IP from my ISP - ISP does not block any ports
Canyouseeme.org always gives a Timed out message when I try and check port forwarding
Everything works perfect on LAN...just remote I can't seem to get. Some nice iphone apps I'd like to use remotely and use my Air to access when away from home.
Questions:
Is it necessary to also configure a Static IP on my Airport Extreme...I haven't as my understanding is that only the DS needs one? If I do could some kindly step this out for me?
I have previously changed some settings in my router for unblock-us http://support.unblock-us.com/customer/ ... 27...could this be the problem?
Thanks to anyone that might be able to help. I can post screen shots also or could send privately! I have noted that you must be at an outside computer to test access and of course tried that as well...but understand Canyouseeme.org should still say it can see the open port when I test from my network? I also have a DDNS and everything there shows Normal.
Hoping for something obvious and stupid on my part that someone can point out!

so if i understand correctly this should work?
WAN IP 208.160.90.22
router ip address 192.168.1.1
camera ip 192.168.1.200
to access the camera i would type in http://208.160.90.22:1024
thanks greatly! i'm trying to use this camera to monitor a boiler to make sure it's operating in this cold weather we are having...

Help with Keynote AppleScript, please

Hi,
I would like to make a Keynote 3 slideshow from a few pictures (Keynote has nicer transitions than iPhoto). I saw that there is an AppleScript command that should do that:
make image slides v : Make a series of slides from a list of image paths. Returns a list of paths from which new slides could not be made.
make image slides reference : the object for the command
paths Unicode text
[master master slide]
[set titles boolean]
Can someone show me how I would actually do that? E.g. with my pictures at /Users/andi/Pictures/ ?
That would be very nice! Thanks!

Ah, thanks a lot! Your remark about cropping got me on the right idea.
So now I have found a solution with Automator. Please be tolerant with the exact titles of the Actions as I write this on a german system and try to translate:
1. Keynote Actions > New Keynote Presentation (with e.g. Theme "Black", Size 1024 x 768 pixels)
2. iPhoto Actions > Ask for Photos (Note: You have to select some Photos and not just an Album)
3. Finder Actions > Copy Finder Objects (e.g. to "Pictures")
And now here comes the tricky part: I used the Photoshop CS2 Actions that can be found here: http://www.completedigitalphotography.com/index.php?p=389 to scale the images to 1024 x 768.
4. Photoshop CS2 Actions > Fit Image (Width: 1024, Height 768, DON'T check the box named "Save and close")
5. Photoshop CS2 Actions > Save as JPEG (Use the settings you like as long as you check the boxes "Close after saving" and "Pass saved files instead of originals")
6. Keynote Actions > Create Slide with Picture (Don't check "Set Titles")
That's all. Save it as a Programm or whatever you like. It asks you for Photos, corrects width and height to fit into the Keynote slide and puts everything in Keynote. You just have to select all the slides in Keynote and apply one of the gorgeous new transitions (like Reflections, my favourite!) to it and you're done.
Please correct me if a translation wasn't correct (and I bet some were).

Help with linking remote to menu and title?

I have my DVD finished to be mastered. I have an opening animation, that leads to a main menu. Whatever submenu I am in, and I want to press the button on the remote to go back to the main menu, it takes me to the opening animation and I have to wait to get to the menu.
Any thoughts on how to link that?

First, hopefully having all your code mushed onto the same line is a copy/paste error, otherwise it should look like...
stop();
btn_recipe.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
     gotoAndStop(1, "Recipe");
If the intention is to click the buttons to make them work, then you should use CLICK instead of MOUSE_DOWN. MOUSE_DOWN can be a persistent state whereas CLICK involves releasing it afterwards.
As for the code to get you back home, where is it located on the timeline? Are you getting any error messages when you try to use it?
One thing you should learn to use is the trace() function. It is useful for troubleshooting. You can use it now to see if your second button is talking to the function at all...
stop();
btn_home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mouse5DownHandler);
function mouse5DownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
     trace("the button works okay");
     gotoAndPlay(1, "MainMenu");
If you don't get that message in the output panel, you'll know the button is not properly coded to work.
Most folks here will recommend you get away from using scenes in a design that includes navigation--they have a history of being problematic. Instead of using scenes, divide the one main timeline up into sections or use movieclips for the sections and manage their visibility... or do a bit of both.

Help with RM Remote .key KeyEventRemap scanco

Can someone tell me what are the scancodes used in these .key files. Are they in fact key scancodes ? Is there a list somewhere to show what they are and what they do ? I have various keyboard scancodes and virtual key codes but they don't seem to relate to the ones in the .key files. Most of my lists show hex numbers, are the ones in the .key files in another format. There must be some methodology to this problem I'm having.
[RC Key Map Information]Name=Microsoft Windows Media Player 7
[KeyEvent6923]KeyName=Play/PauseNotification=2KeyEventRemap=32808HandleByApp=
32808 code should = ctrl+p
I have in my lists
Scancode for ctrl is D and p is 9 hex or Virtual key code ctrl is A2 and p is 50 hex
So where does 32808 come from ?
Lastly how does the .key files relate to the .exe ? is it my the Name field (Name=Microsoft Windows Media Player 7)
Thanks, if you can help.

Can you help with keynote problem??

I created a keynote presentation on my mac and now I want to be able to run it on my PC that has Office 2003.
I exported it into a powerpoint file and burned it on a disc,but when I try to play it on the PC the music does not play and the majority of photos show up completely black.
Is there a way to work around this problem?
Thanks!
Dana

what you are showing is actually what i want, i am perplexed why this wont work for me?!
notice, when i copy/paste the values from openoffice to a keynote table, all is ok.
a copy/paste from this table into data-editor is the same effect like directly from openoffice...

IPhone 5 with Keynote remote App will not work via Bluetooth.

So what's the point of buying & using Keynote if I can't use the App sold by Apple to control the presentation on my laptop via Bluetooth? I wasted nearly a half hour trying to configure this to work only to find that apparently Bluetooth on the iPhone 5 (and 4) won't connect to a laptop? ***?
Seriously useless and incredibly frustrating. Shame Apple, shame.

Add to that the fact that the computer and phone go through the excercise of exchanging a code... The computer says "You're connected" and then the Phone just keeps searching. Inexcusable.

Help with Keynote

I created a slideshow presentation using keynote. I saved it to a jumpdrive. It will not open in a windows based PC. What can I do?

You must go to the original, in the share menu you can save your presentation in different formats. You want to select PPT (for Power Point) or PDF.
Many of your builds may not look the same. I've found the same thing on the iPad 2. The builds which looked extra special on the Mac were pale by comparison on the iPad 2.

i have been wondering is there a place (website) where you can download additional effects, transitions, etc.

Welcome to the discussions, mackers4life.
No, there's not currently a way to download any additional effects.

Keynote Remote for iPad

I'm not looking to control Keynote on the iPad, but rather use my iPad as a Keynote Remote for my MacPro running Keynote for Mac. I have it on the iPhone, but running Keynote for Mac 'remotely' from my iPad would be better for me. I run photography workshops and courses and in my studio my MacPro is connected to a 42" display that I run a Keynote presentation on. I've been controlling it with Keynote Remote on my iPhone, but would rather use my iPad as the remote.

Although I have it on my iPhone, I couldn't find how to install it on my iPad. Thought it wasn't compatible. Found it through my "Purchased Apps" on the iPad (App Store) and hit install. Thanks for verifing that it was compatible and I just had to dig a little deeper.
Wish they'd come out with a dedicated iPad version with a few more features rather than just a 2X view of the iPhone app.

Remote not working with keynote 5.3 on mavericks

Using the apple remote on keynote 5.3. Cannot advance the slides anymore
Any help would be appreciated. Keynote 6 is not what I expected

As a follow up -
I spoke with Apple Support about this and was routed to a few people who were helpful, and moved it up to the engineers of Keynote (and the white remote?) for a solution.
A few days later I received this reply:
Hello Eric, I have heard back from the engineers about this. It looks like as long as Keynote 6.0 is present on the system it will default to using the remove in that application. If you remove Keynote 6.0, which we would not recommend, then you can use Keynote 5.3 with the remote. Presently though this is normal and expected behavior.
I replied by expressing my disappointment that this wasn't functional, since I'm not comfortable using Keynote 6.0 yet. Short of uninstalling 6.0, the only workaround I have found is to use the iPhone/iTouch Keynote remote app, or make a duplicate copy of your presentation to be opened in 6.0 (and using the remote there).

Keynote Remote Doesn't work with iPhone, iPad

Hi,
I have the latest versions of Keynote on my iPhone 5S, iPad 4 and MacBook Pro 13" with Retina Display.
All three devices on the same WiFi network. Using WiFi I was able to remotely control/play the presetatnion between iPhone 5S and MacBook.
However, it doesn't work between iPhone 5S and iPad 4. Any help ?
I tried Bluetooth as well. They seem to not discover each other and neither able to remote control.
Any tips ?
Thanks.

After having to upgrade to the latest version of iOS Keynote (because I edited one of my presentations online through iCloud), I received the message that Keynote Remote is to be discontinued. The alternative they offer is to download Keynote onto your iPhone as they have integrated the remote feature into the full program.
The problem that I found is that space is more of a premium on my iPhone than my iPad and I don't use the full program on the iPhone, as the remote app takes only 3MB and the full app? 444MB.
I hope Apple receive similar complaints about this as nearly half a Gig for what will amount to a remote for Keynote is preposterous. I have already purchased my 16GB 5S, it's not as if I can put more memory in it now.
