How to keep a music file playing across slides in Keynote '09

Hi all,
I've made an opening slide which has a 4 minute long music piece as it's first build. Now, after the 4-5 photos that drift in over the music, I want to change the slide and bring in the next few slides at timed transitions but I want to keep the music playing continuously over these all and end the presentation with the final slide over the end of the music. How do I do this?
Thanks.

Instead of having the song on the slide and using a build in for it, make the song the soundtrack. To make the song the soundtrack, add it in the Inspector>Document>Audio section. Then you can time out all your transitions and builds. The song will not fade out at the end, but you can add it to Garage Band and shorten it and fade it out if needed.

  • How do I import music files from a flash drive to my iTunes library on my laptop

    How can I import music files from a flash drive to my iTunes library? I put the flash drive into my laptop, selected " add file to library", selected the songs I wanted from the flash drive, and it looked like they were added as the names show under " recently added". Then I removed the flash drive from my laptop But when I select one of the songs and try to play it a message saying "the song could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"  So it seems the actual files did not transfer. What do I do? I have done this. With a cd in the past with nsomproble,.

    Thank you!! This worked. It does seem there should be an easier way but this did work.
    Dragging the files to "Automatically Add..." is pretty easy once you know where to look.  Just make sure iTunes is running when you do it; otherwise the files will just sit there until the next time you open iTunes.
    (Interestingly, the way you originally tried to do would have worked fine except for one little detail:  you have to first go into Edit > Preferences > Advanced, and check the box for "Copy files..."  If that is not done, iTunes will reference the files on the flash drive, which of course are not accessible once the drive is removed, as you saw.)
    Anyway, glad that all is now sorted.  Enjoy the music!

  • How do I move music files from the startup disc to iTunes in the other internal hard disk os 10.5.8?

    How do I move music files from the startup disc to iTunes in the other internal hard disk os 10.5.8?
    The music I want to move was in iTunes but is now just files. I had to reinstall a new iTunes and lost all my old music.
    Thank you!

    That article is about using your iPod as an external hard drive, to move files from one computer to another computer.  It is not related to your question.
    You can't use iTunes to move song files from iPod to computer, except for songs you purchased from the iTunes Store (and you can also re-download purchases).  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can move song files from iPod to computer.  If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    Once the song files are on your current computer, add them to that computer's iTunes library by dragging the files (or folder containing the files) to the iTunes window.  After confirming everything is there (and fixing the data issue you mentioned) you can sync the iPod.  You may want to do a Restore on the iPod, if it might have a data corruption issue, which will erase the iPod's hard drive, re-install the latest software, and set it to defautl settings.

  • How do I transfer music files from a portable hard drive to my current iTunes library?

    Last year I moved from a desk top to a Mac. Geek squad helped me save my previous iTunes libarary to an external hard drive. I'm not a sophisticated user by any means, and I cannot figure out how to copy the music files from the external drive into my current iTunes library on my new Mac. Help, please.

    Drag the files to the internal drive and from there into the iTunes application window.

  • How to keep christmas music out of a genius mix?

    how to keep christmas music out of a genius mix?

    A cleaner solution is to create a playlist with your running albums, then update the other smart playlists with "Playlist" not in "Running Albums".
    That way, you don't need to update each and every playlist when you add a new running album, you just need to put it in the Running Albums playlist.

  • Does Anybody know how to keep the license files and Certificates in ISE-3315 During the upgrade.

    Hi,
    I have two ISE-3315 Appliances in production network.
    I need someone's help to explain, how to make the Secondary node as the primary admin note to reset-config.
    And then I would like to know how to keep the license files and Certificate during the Upgrade.
    Please help me to answer my questions.
    Thanks

    The Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) provides distributed  deployment of runtime services with centralized configuration and  management. Multiple nodes can be deployed together in a distributed  fashion to support failover.
    If you register a  secondary Monitoring ISE node, it is recommended that you first back up  the primary Monitoring ISE node and then restore the data to the new  secondary Monitoring ISE node. This ensures that the history of the  primary Monitoring ISE node is in sync with the new secondary node as  new changes are replicated.
    Please  Check the below configuration guide for Secondary ISE- Nodes.
