Keynote and Quicktime v7

I have been producing keynote presentations in quick time format and had great success using quicktime v6 player - just upgraded to v7 and all my links in the prestation seem to produce a path error i.e. can't find a file when I just click on a llink that is linking slides - any thoughts ?
Sounds like Key note quicktime export may not be ready for v7 of quicktime ?

Might I dare to say a better workaround than the others? My reason being that there's (from my perspective) no loss of function (other than having to use Firefox instead of IE when cold-launching a link).
The other solutions posted (in a related post) each had their own problems -
--Reverting to Quicktime 6.5.2 (on the PC end) meant the file stopped working if QT7 had been used on the Mac side.
--Reverting to QT 6.5.2 on the Mac (via the reinstaller, or any method) seems to be impossible if you've upgraded beyond OSX 10.3.9.
--Re-exporting the interactive file as a Quicktime movie through QT removes all interactive functions, which is what I needed, and
--Opening the .mov file within Internet Explorer (which does work) doesn't allow for full-screen display of the video.
Glad it worked for you!

  • Apple Keynotes and Quicktime on Mac?

    As the die-hard Apple fan I am, I was trying to watch some older keynotes of apple introducing some products. I have allways had this issue with my Intel mac. They keynotes just don't play. Or very poorly. The audio is fantastic. No problems. But the video comes in blurry, and refreshes every few seconds. Its awful. And somtimes I just get stuck at the copyright information at the beginning. I have normally just grunted, said bug and then watched it on my iPhone. But my iPhone wont play these old keynotes and i am stuck. Its not my internet connection. 6 MBPS.
    Help? Or rather HALP?

  • Keynote and Quicktime stop & start not accurate

    When i use Keynote, i sometimes want to have a movie play from a point other than the start and i find the start & stop control innaccurate. Is there an update coming or someone who has an answer. My particular issue is a countdown timer (.mov) which i use, and to have the precise point of the countdown is impossible to get with the slider.

    If you find the original file, right-click it in Finder and open with QuickTime Player. When in QT, click Edit>Trim (cmd+T) and trim your video to selection. This seems to be a more accurate trim feature. Once done, you can File>Export and resave your video for using in Keynote.
    I agree, the feature in Keynote is almost useless.

  • Why can't Apple figure out Keynote to QuickTime???

    User problems with QuickTime exporting from Keynote are legion (just look at these discussion forums). Why can't Apple (makers of both Keynote and QuickTime) master this task?
    I want a QuickTime video of a self-running presentation. I have audio narration on each slide via .WAV files. My animation timings are set perfectly to match the narration. My transitions are set to advance at the appropriate time in the narration. When I view the show, everything works PERFECTLY. Narration is intact, animations are perfectly timed, slides automatically advance at exactly the right time. Now all I need is a video of my presentation in QuickTime. No problem, I'll use Keynote's handy Export to QuickTime tool.
    Then things get ugly. I export to QuickTime and it all falls apart. The timing is off. Long pauses between my slide transitions. Bah. All I want is a QuickTime version of exactly what I see when I play the slideshow - but that's not what I get. Incredibly frustrating. I was hoping they'd fix this in Keynote '09. Alas, not so.
    Step it up, Apple. Please!

    This is truly unbelievable. I have used apple equipment since the Apple II. Quicktime and keynote are key apple software. Why can't apple figure this out. I am a college professor recording audio with keynote presentations. Keynote operates very well. Never a problem. Why can't I export to quicktime without trouble? Why do we need to work around this? The quicktime export produces a video track and a movie track, but no audio track. You can check this in the properties after export. It doesn't matter what export settings I choose. Always a movie without an audio track. I am a simple college professor trying to get lecture movies on the course management system. If the audio is recorded on keynote, which it is, why can't quicktime pick it up and add it to the movie? This problem has been around for years through several versions of quicktime and keynote. Is this an Apple culture where the keynote people don't talk to the quicktime people? Either keynote should record in a format that quicktime can use or quicktime should be able to read the keynote audio and add it to the movie. How can this be education friendly if a college professor can't export his recorded keynote presentations to quicktime? I don't want a work around that takes me extra time. My time is precious and my students need access very soon after the lecture. This should be at the top of a fix-it list in the apple education group.

  • Export "recorded" Keynote to Quicktime=loss of quality and stuttering..

    Hi folks,
    Can anyone give me help? Here is the deal:
    1. I have a nice Keynote with all of my actions and transitions. I want to record it (or whatever) and send it to iMovie where I can manipulate multiple songs (from iTunes) as a soundtrack.
    2. After that, either make a dvd of it, or save it as a quicktime movie to play direct from the mac.
    3. The best quality is desired.
    I saw that someone recommended Snapz ProX to record..can that then play nicely with iMovie/soundtrack development?
    The "record" feature in Keynote was the only way I could preserve my custom actions and transitions, but the export to Quicktime horribly reduces quality to an unusable level. Drat.
    Thanks!!!!!

    On your mac... bring up the keynote and set it to the first slide. Then click file>record. This will begin a play-thru of your keynote. If you have to advance things by click then you will have to trial-and-error on that and see if you like the results. If you have everything automated it will work smoothly. If you have audio make sure you turn your speakers off or way down as it will automatically turn on the mic as it records and it will record you talking and stuff... so shhhhhh!
    After it is done, click share>export to itunes. If asked --you want to work with the recorded version you just made--. It should then create a quiktime version of your keynote that is playable on a PC. (that can play QT videos!)
    Depending on what you have made there are many ways to do this... If it is a simple slide show you can first try to export as a Power Point which will certainly play on the PC...but is prone to issues depending on your slides.
    You can only record your Keynote once at a time... so if you mess up, just click file>clear recording, and do it again.....
    Just tinker with it and you will see....

  • Keynote transitions and quicktime movies very choppy, not smooth

    When playing a slideshow, my slide transitions and Quicktime movies are not smooth, especially when using Magic Move for a transition. There is also a long delay for the start of a transition, even if delay is set to zero. I believe I have adequate hardware but any suggestions are appreciated.
    Oddly, if I export a Quicktime version of the presentation or view in "Rehearse Slideshow," all transitions are smooth. Any tips for better playback performance while in Keynote? I would use the exported QuickTime for the actual presentation if there was a way to automatically stop/start playback at the end of each slide. Is there??

  • Flash and quicktime export not possible at all!

    hi iwork dev team!
    as there was no result on my prev post, here again:
    i use keynote'08 4.02 on imac with 2gb and osx 10.5.2.
    i created a presentation with 15 slides and over all 16,5 minutes.
    each slide has a mp3 sound file attached (the speakers voice recorded externally).
    now i am facing following problems on *export to flash* (export is around 18mb):
    1) synchronization of voice and effects is different than inside keynote - i fixed this by changing times and export/test cycles, as long until i run sync in swf (please make it sync - this is terrible).
    2) starting with slide 13 some objects do not appear - in further slides many objects do not appear. the sound and time is ok, but not much to see. if i split the presentation into 2 parts, the export works fine, all objects appear in all slides, but i found no way to combine those 2 swf files....
    3) in one slide i found out that the order of appearing/disappearing objects confuses the swf export, so that many objects afterwards are not at all shown.... i played around long and splitted the slide in 2 slides and with some workarounds i got it show all objects.
    4) it would be great if at least some transitions and most effects would be supported and times of effects would be the same inside keynote and in exported swf.
    *exporting to quicktime*:
    1) first i had one large mp3 for the whole presentation and added it as soundtrack and synced it inside keynote. exporting this to quicktime made it run async. but at least export was possible for the full presentation.
    2) i splitted the mp3 for each slide and added each mp3 to each corresponding slide. this way i made it possible to export to swf (see above). but quicktime export now has no sound and slide shows up nearly endless.... qt export is impossible.
    what can i do?
    at least it would help me if i can export ONE swf file.
    best would be if it has same sync inside keynote and in swf - but i can live for now with swf export optimized sync that doesnt work inside keynote. but it should be fixed at least in the future....

    I'm currently having a similar problem, where the Flash exported by Keynote seems to randomly miss some objects on the page that appear after a click or a delay. In fact, in one case, I had embedded a EPS file in the slide, and some parts of the embedded file were exported to Flash but not others. I'm using Keynote 3.0.2, so I'm sorry to hear that Keynote '08 still has this bug which makes Flash export pretty awful to deal with.

  • Keynote and Flash CS3

    I have read the threads on lack of support for transparency in animated GIFs and QT Flash tracks. I just installed Adobe CS3 and iWork '08, and Keynote '08 seems willing to import Flash 9 files (although I have yet to try features not in Flash 5). There seems no way to specify transparency for the background in SWF, it is an option on export. Assuming the lack of support for transparency is fixed, is there hope for being able to import SWF 9 files to Keynote '08 and have them be transparent?

    Welcome to the discussions, Jeff.
    I don't think so. Since the Flash would be playing within QuickTime, and the problem is somewhere between Keynote's and QuickTime's interactions, that core problem would have to be resolved before transparencies would work in Keynote.
    However, if you get it to work, definitely post back to let us know! (By the way, you're right that the QuickTime support in Keynote for Flash can support ANY version Flash file as long as the file doesn't use any post Flash 5 features.)

  • Keynote and Apple Aluminum Remote

    I have used Keynote for a long time now and never had problems using it with a remote control.
    I updated to Mountain Lion recently and **** broke loose! I cannot get Keynote to work with a remote if I am showing my presentation on a secondary display (an LCD TV connected to my Macbook Pro via an HDMI cable). I did manage to reset the SMC (System Management Controller) but it solved my problem only temporarily. I know the problem is not with the remote because when I use it with Keynote and I am not using a secondary display, it works perfectly. BTW, iPhone and iPod touch remotes are not enabled.
    Anyone knows how to solve this?
    TIA

    An update:
    The remote works well with Quicktime. I had to play an mp3 file and the remote apparently works well with you. Keynote seems to be the culprit...

  • Keynote and e-mail

    It's hard for me to believe that we cannot simply send a Keynote file (or a Page or Number file, for that matter) by e-mail as simply as we do Office files. What's the problem? Why hasn't Apple built this into the IWork set of possibilities. I find when I export in PowerPoint or PDF or Flash or Quicktime, something gets lost in my Keynote file. I am proud of what I produce in Keynote and would like to share it with colleagues.
    So this is an official complaint to Apple and a request of anyone who knows how to sent the Keynote file by e-mail without losing something.
    Disappointed: Jeffreycal1

    Welcome to the forum!
    A Keynote presentation is a actually a collection of files, called a "package". OS X uses this format, but other OSes don't and often email platforms don't understand it. To email a Keynote presentation, simply compress it into a single actual file by selecting the document in the Finder and from the File menu choosing "Create Archive" (in Tiger) or "Compress" (in Leopard). You can email the resulting file without difficulty. Your recipient merely has to double-click the file to uncompress it (this will only work if your correspondent has a Mac, of course, since there is no version of Keynote for Windows).

  • Using Keynote and iPhoto slideshow together

    Computer: 12" Powerbook G4, 1.5ghz
    Display: 23" Apple Cinema Display (1920x1200)
    Software: OSX 10.4.9, Keynote 2, iPhoto 6
    Hi everyone! Above are the specs for the project I'm working on and here's the problem I'm having:
    I am trying to create a makeshift kiosk display for an upcoming event using slides in Keynote and a picture slideshow in iPhoto. I'm planning on running it off my Powerbook to my 23" Cinema Display.
    I'm using Keynote for the presentation content because of the motion effects (transitions, build-ins, etc.) and iPhoto for the image slideshow because of the Ken Burns effect (which I don't believe Keynote has). Both look great running seperately, however when this is being displayed at the show, I'll need both to run back to back automatically, without having to manually switch back and forth between applications.
    I have both the Keynote presentation and the iPhoto slideshow displaying at 1920x1200. I've tried exporting the iPhoto slideshow to Quicktime, but it won't export any higher than 640x480. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can make this work? I won't be able to operate the computer when this is running, so I really need to find a way to make everything run seamlessly while keeping the high resolution of the 1920x1200 monitor.
    Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated!
    Thanks,

    iMovie is a DV editing app and the final results would still make a 640X480 file.
    I would change a few things to make everything work together:
    First is the display resolution. You want the 23 inches to be used so just reduce the display preferences to try and match your QuickTime file. 800X600 sounds about right but larger will still work as H.264 Video scales up in size very nicely.
    This would force you to "reduce" the dimensions of the Keynote file but that shouldn't be much of an issue.
    QuickTime Pro could also be used to "change" the dimensions of the 640X480 file. Again, H.264 scales up in size and would look pretty good at even double size.
    The goal is to have them both at the same dimension and then match the monitor resolution.
    Easier to change the display than the files.

  • Keynote to quicktime movie to iDVD, no sound on dvd

    I know this has been asked a million times, however I (a relatively recent Mac convert) absolutely can't believe that Apple would not allow this to work.
    I have a keynote slideshow with music. I "send to iDVD" as well as "export" into a quicktime movie. Resultant files are movie and soundtrack. I bring into iDVD. Sound plays in iDVD. Burn dvd from iDVD, no sound on dvd.
    C'mon, the instructions are there, the menus are there. Apple can't expect us to "import into iMovie, match movie and soundtrack" or "burn using disk utility" or otherwise do anything other than take a keynote and make it in to a dvd.
    Worst case, can I just burn a CD or DVD that automatically plays the keynote with sound and doesn't have the cool DVD Menu?
    Again, sorry for the "same old question", however I have not found a fix that worked nor do I believe that Apple means for this to be so difficult.
    For those experts out there that have seen this question before, I really have spent a significant amount of time researching the problem and haven't found a fix that worked or an official response from Apple.
    Thanks again.

    I am not running this on an intranet, I am creating a video for my students and posting it to my Internet web page. So if I were to post the keynote file itself, 4/5 of my students would be unable to open it because they don't have Macs. Some do not even have desktop computers and view stuff on their smart phones. I solved the issue, at least partially, by saving the presentation as html and posting it to my site that way. It works but it is a bit buggy. Would still rather make it into a movie.

  • When exporting keynote to quicktime it is crap. why?

    when exporting keynote to quicktime, it is really jumpy/jittery WHY!?!?!?
    need help

    Same thing happening to me.
    Seems like it's a quicktime bug.
    I see some discussion at http://www.jem-thematic.net/en/node/871
    It seems to indicate the only way is to downgrade from QT from 7.5 to 7.4.5... and, if you use iMovie, this will also break iMovie, you'd need to reinstall... UGH.

  • Cannot Export Keynote to Quicktime

    When i try and export a the keynote into quicktime, the result is not as intended. i have recored a video inside of keynote, with animations and different timings. the video is around 8 mins long. when i export it to quicktime, i get a video of 4 seconds in lenght. this is the screen shot of the options i get when i click "File", "Export to", "Quicktime".
    any help would be much appreciated

    The export options show that the QuickTime export will take the timings of the transitions from the "recording";  every time you press the enter, spacebar or right arrow key, Keynote will advance to the next event.
    The recorded timings are wrong, you therefor need to clear the timings and record them again:
    1 - Inspector > Document > Audio > click the clear button
    2 - click record
    3 - click the red start record button at the bottom left, wait for the countdown to finish then press the enter key every time you want to advance to the next event.
    4 - when your reach the last slide, click the record button again, then click the X button top right
    test the timings are correct by playing the presentation from slide 1
