How do I export Keynote file to Powerpoint as ".ppt" rather than ".pps"?

Greetings,
have not been able to export from Keynote4.0.1 (OSX 10.4.10)
to Powerpoint .ppt format, only to .pps
is there a setting somewhere in preferences?
when i try to change the file name suffix to .ppt it still appends to .pps
any clues or advice?
need to export as .ppt file for use in another app. (Impatica)
thanx in advance for any help!
PS if you have a G4 Powerbook with bad LCD, please post on the proper forum category to request that Apple consider a recall for this growing problem!!

greetings,
-- have found solution!
-- depends on the nature of the initial PowerPoint file, whether imported to Keynote as .ppt or .pps (embedded or linked media)
-- have been importing/exporting between Keynote & PP to refine the presentation for best cross-platform delivery as part of my edit process. as other have stated, on this discussion forum--there are a number of incompatibilities, when re-exporting your beautiful content rich Keynote presentation back to the MS PP format.
-- it is best to be selective with your template choices & linked/embedded media files while working in Keynote... if you have high expectations for playback in MS PP you'll be disappointed. export to a QT movie for an excellent rendering of effects (not to mention, addtl. editing capabilities in QT Pro) & hope the end user has a plugin! much better than a less pleasing MS PP playback.
welcome other solutions/experiences here; please.
thanx,
MeanPony

  • Unknown error when trying to export keynote file to powerpoint

    Is there a size limit to the export? I have an 80MB file I would like to export. Smaller files have exported successfully, but now I am getting this totally unhelpful error message:
    An unknown error occurred.

    Mmmm - so it won't even allow sharing as an uncompressed full-quality QT file. Does it include iTunes store tracks? (don't know if that would cause your particular problem). Could you test by creating a new project with just a few pics (drag and drop from your current project) and without the music track? Or maybe just do a Save As, and trash the music from it.

  • How do I export a file from iMovie that is larger than 15min?

    I currently made a video on iMovie that I would like to export. However everything I have tried ends with a message coming from iMovie saying the file is too long. I've heard of exporting to quicktime but in the share option i don't see quicktime. I haven't tried just putting a usb in and seeing if i can come how paste it in but i don't think that will work.
    Need this for Valentines Day any suggestions would be great!

    So early i tried to convert it into a file first and at first it said it didn't work. Then the file popped up, but i couldn't open it and this message popped up "To see if additional software is available that will enable QuickTime Player to open the movie, click Tell Me More.". Which was not useful at all. But after a while i guess it completed exporting and i can now access it as a file. Thought I'd share my experience.

  • How do I export video files from iPhoto to a backup external hard drive for safekeeping?

    How do I export video files from iPhoto to a backup external hard drive for safekeeping?  Each time I try, the video will not play from the external hard drive.

    Use the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option with Kind = Original.  That should get the original video file exported.  Try to export one to the Desktop first and open it with Quicktime Player.  If all goes well export the rest to a folder on the EHD. How is the EHD formatted?  It should be OS X Extended (journaled).

    Hi all,
    I know InDesign doesn't allow to export a PNG file, but I need my file to be in image file format with transparent background.
    I'm still learning so I am stuck here. How can I export a file with transparent background?

    If you can't get the PNG file export to work, you can export a pdf and open it in Photoshop, from there you can save it as whatever you like.

  • How do I export a file and keep the aspect ratio intact?

    I'm exporting an edited scene from an external hard drive to a macbook but the video on the laptop is anamorphic (squished) compared to the original file on the hard drive.  How do I export the file and keep the aspect ratio intact?

    Please give the exact specs of your project. If the material is anamorphic, aspect ratio display is a function of the playback device. What is it?

    unfortunately, like the previous 6 versions of GB, MIDI export is not supported. you would need to open the file in Logic in order to do that

  • How to play SWF with AxShockwaveFlash control using a stream rather than a file path?

    My WinForm app downloads and plays SWF files from my server. Currently, I have an object of type AxShockwaveFlash called "flash" display the movie. The code I use to load the SWF is:
    flash.Movie = "http://example.com/file.swf"
    The URL is generated dynamically by the module based on what the user wants to watch.  I'd like to know how can I load the SWF using a memory stream rather than a file path? I have already configured my server to process the url and return the contents
    of the file. What I don't know is how to read those contents within my WinForm application as a stream instead of the default which is to just provide a URL path to the movie.
    For instance I think I can use the Net.HttpWebRequest object to make an HTTP request, and read the response contained in the resulting Net.HttpWebResponse into a stream, but I have no idea what I could do to that stream to feed it to AxShockwaveFlash
    A very similar question was posed on
    stackOverflow but I cannot make sense of the answer (I'm quite inexperienced).
    I'd appreciate your help,

  • How do I duplicate hard links when copying with Finder rather than making two copies of the file?

    I have 1.6 TB of Video on one external drive. All of this was imported using iMovie and lives mostly in iMovie events. I then decided I wanted to use Final Cut Pro X for some additional flexibility.
    I opened FCPx and imported the iMovie events and movies. As I expected, FCPx made hard links to the files in the iMovie events rather than wholesale copying the events into the original content area. I have found that it is much easier to keep all movie content on one disk rather than having is spread all over creation, so I am trying to make a copy on another larger drive.
    I am trying to use Finder to copy the files rather than some other more obtrusive option using the actual applications. The problem is, when I use the finder Copy function, all files that had hard links in the file system are now phyiscally copied twice and are actually duplicated on the new disk. This doubles the size of the the content on the new disk and completely ruins the reason for moving the files in the first place.
    Now that I have finally figured out what is going on, I guess I can figure out the proper Unix style commands in the Terminal to make happen what I expect, but I would much rather have Finder duplicate a link if it finds a link. I really want to be able to use iMovie or FCPx on the Event content and only have one copy of the content unless I want to make a modification in one or the other.

    Mark,
    I have had a similar problem lately.  I use rsync to perform nightly backups from one internal drive to another.  I noticed (after I started using Final Cut Pro X) that my backup drive had 300G more disk space allocated.  It was only after a long and painful debugging process that I figured out that FCPX had created hard links to my iMovie Events.  I don't have a solution to this problem yet but I wanted to at least mention that I have run into the same challenge.
    Regards,
    Greg
