How to insert symbols in the latest version of Keynote

I am a long time user of Keynote 09 and long time inserter of symbols using Edit>Special Characters. It used to be that you could insert a character/symbol from any font on your machine. However, I can no longer figure out how to get a character from something like Apple Symbols. Does anyone have any idea how to see the full list of every character available in a selected font and insert it into a Keynote presentation?

Hi Tom, and everyone else.  I've just switched from keynote '09 to 6.5.2 (2119).  I'm slowing working things out, but I can use some help with this:
I like the futura font, but the question mark is bizarre.  I used to be able to use edit/'special characters' to insert a question mark from a different font, but I'm now having trouble with that.   I expand out the pop-up menu and go to punctuation (or punctuation - all).   The first row, fourth column gives me a question mark.  Double-click selecting it gives me a '?' in the futura font, as expected.  I go to 'font variation' - that's what I want.  But all of these give me the same futura font!
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,
larry
(If I go to 'related characters', I can get 'double', 'small' or 'full width' marks.  "Full width" looks different from the futura font, but it includes a big blank area to the right of the character, so I stick with the original "question mark".)

  • I inadvertently deleted and emptied the trash bin on Firefox. I have a MAC OSX-VERSION 10.4.11. How can I re-install the latest version of Firefox that is COMPUTER FRIENDLY for the MAC OSX Version 10.4.11? I appreciate any help.

    I inadvertently deleted Firefox and emptied the trash bin. I believe it was version 3.5. I have a MAC OSX 10.4.11. After several futile attemps how can I re-install the latest version of Firefox compatible to my MAC system? Thanks!

    As of Firefox 4.0 and newer the Firefox builds from Mozilla requires both Mac OSX 10.'''5'''+ and a Intel.
    Either you can use 3.6.19 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    Though for you 3.6.18 will be safe also as 3.6.19 was to workaround a font crashing issue on 10.7 Lion that was not fixed in time on Lion before release. http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.6.18/mac/ and pick your language and download the Firefox 3.6.18.dmg

  • Upon upgrading to Yosemite, the Pages and Numbers apps will not open (although they are the latest versions) and Keynote will not upgrade; how do I go about getting the apps to open?

    Upon upgrading to Yosemite, the Pages and Numbers apps will not open (although they are the latest versions) and Keynote will not upgrade; how do I go about getting the apps to open? Is this a common issue?

    Hi Madhattanite,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  When did you purchase your Mac?  The first thing I would suggest is to review the information in the resource below for the Up-To-Date Program for Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.
    Once Yosemite is installed, you should have the option to Accept the Pages, Numbers and Keynote apps in the Mac App Store Purchases pane.
    Apple - Up-to-Date Program for Pages, Numbers, and Keynote
    I hope this helps ...

  • How do I upgrade to the latest version of fcpx?

  • What is the latest version of Keynote?

    I have Mavericks and I am asking what the latest version of Keynote is? Are there any tutorials on using the latest version? Also in asking you knowledgeable folks here. Is the latest version capable of doing CAD type drawings such as Autocad? Or do I need to purchase Autocad for simple one line drawings?
    Thanks for the input in advance.

    The latest version is 6.2 which requires Mavericks (OS10.9) to run.
    Keynote can produce simple artwork, nowhere near CAD functionality., look at the web page for details, all the illustrations were created in Keynote except the Photograph.
    The help web page is here:     Keynote Help

  • How do I manuallly download the latest version of Firefox on top of my current version?

    I have an iMac version 10.7.5. I'm currently running Firefox Version 14 and I keep getting prompts to allow automatic updating (currently to version 17). However, when the prompt says "connecting to the update server," it never connects. So my questions are:
    a.) Is there a way to correct this problem so that I can automatically update?
    b.) If not, how do I update manually (I've found the Mozilla site's explanations incomplete/confusing.) Can I just download the latest version and it'll configure to what I already have, or do I need to delete my current version and reinstall completely? And what will happen to my settings (e.g. bookmarks) if I update on top of my current version, or update by completely replacing the current version?

    If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
    *Firefox 17.0.1: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Trash the current Firefox application (e.g. open the Applications folder in the Finder and drag the Firefox application to the Trash) to do a clean (re-)install
    *Install the new version that you have downloaded
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Installing+Firefox+on+Mac
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

  • How can I upgrade to the latest version of Minion Pro (with a full set of superior letters)?

    I purchased Minion Pro a long time ago and love it, except ... it uses the ISO set of superior letters. I transcribe a lot of 17th- and 18th-century documents, and they use superior letters not in the ISO set. In Minion Pro Read Me it says that version 2.030 created 2007/08/16 has a full alphabet of superior letters. How can I upgrade from my version of Minion Pro without a full superior alphabet to a version with a full alphabet? --Thanks!

    I believe you're referring to an item on Minion Pro's Release Notes document. I've checked the latest version of this family and I'm sorry to tell you that Minion Pro does not have a full set of superiors. The comment in the Release Notes is incorrect.

    I am trying to download a new ringtone and it says I need to update to the latest version of iOS before I can download a song.  How do I do that?

    First, update iTunes on your computer to the latest version. Then connect your iPhone to the same computer. On the Summary page for the iPhone that opens in iTunes, click on Check For Update (or install the update, if iTunes already says you have an upgrade.

  • I have the latest version of keynote but it won't open files....says I need a newer version

    Latest Keynote app was downloaded wirh Maverick update.  My keynote files won't open and error message says I need to download latest version. I cannot download newer version (have latest version already) because my purchases say I have already installed it. Any ideas how to fix this?

    I have just the same issue. I have the latest version installed. I did work on the file this afternoon, cannot open it anymore with the current version of Keynote (6.2)
    It seems that Keynote fails to save the presentation in the right way.
    In the Finder the Show package contents command is active when Control-clicking the file. Keynote files that open correctly in Keynote do not offer to show their package contents. I also realized that the .key file not opening is only 135 KB, which is pretty scarce for a presentation.
    I suppose this is a file corruption issue, which is needed to fixed by Apple. I'm affraid the contents of those files are gone.

  • HT4623 how do I know what the latest version of ios is?  The people at the apple store told me it was not up to date, but my computer is telling me it is?

    I'm having trouble opening one app (facebook).  Everything else is fine.  I've deleted it, reinstalled it, shut down, made sure everything is up to date.  Took the ipad to the apple store and was told the software was not up to date.  Came home, plugged it in to the computer, and it tells me everything is up to date?  Help!

    A word of caution:  What may not be up to date is the version of iTunes you are running on your computer.
    Make sure you're running the latest.  Get it at http://www.apple.com/itunes
    The current version is iTunes 11.0.1.
