Keynote automatically opening in show mode

When I open a keynote file on my mac, keynote automatically opens the show rather than allowing me to work with the files.  Obviously I can exit the show, but it is annoying to have to do this every time that I open a Keynote file?  Is there a fix? I am using the new 2013 version of Keynote...and it didn't use to do this.

Welcome to the discussions, MarxMan.
It sounds like what you are seeing on the projector is the "presenter display" -- this looks like the rehearsal mode, but can be used when one has two displays, so that the presenter can see what is coming up on one display while the audience, on the other display or projector, sees the regular slideshow.
What is the screen on your MacBook showing? Is it showing the slideshow, or the presenter display? If it is showing the slideshow, then there are two solutions.
One, you can turn off the Presenter Display option. To do this, in Keynote Preferences, under "Alternate Display" uncheck "Use alternate display".
Two, you can re-arrange the two displays so that the presenter display is showing on your laptop. To do this, you will need to go into the OS X Preferences, under Displays. There, you can configure the spanning geometry of the two displays. Simply reverse which display is on the "left" and which is on the "right", and this should put the Presenter Display on your machine, and the slideshow on the projector.

  • Automatically booting into safe mode?

    Hi,
    For the last few days my imac has been automatically opening in safe mode and I have no idea why or how to stop it doing this.
    Before it started doing this, I never tried to safe boot it and had been having no problems with the mac at all. No new software was downloaded/installed on the computer either.
    Also, tonight the computer appeared to be very running sluggish, particularly on safari, with the spinning wheel freezing up on any laborious website such as youtube. This, however, could be due to a dodgy internet connection and may be entirely unrelated.
    Does anybody know why the mac is likely to automatically safe boot, and how I can get it to stop doing so?

    The PRAM reset suggested should work without problem you can also use, this article on how to correct using Terminal.

  • SharePoint 2010 and PowerPoint 2010: Open PPTX File in Edit Mode and Open PPSX in in Slide Show Mode

    I have the following issue while opening PowerPoint PPTX file and PPSX from the Document ID link provided by SharePoint 2010.
    Issue
    Initially when I opened PPTX file from the DOC ID link from SharePoint 2010, it is opening up in Slide Show mode which is not how we want it to be.
    For PPSX, it is opening in Slide Show mode which is what we wanted.
    Thus, I did some research online and found this article at support.microsoft.com/kb/q299824  which requires some modification to the Registry of the client machine.
    I did the change as follows
    Open Registry
    Look for “Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PowerPoint.Show.12”
    Set BrowserFlags value to a
    After the change, PPTX is opening in Edit Mode in PowerPoint which is correct but PPSX is also opening in Edit Mode in PowerPoint which is not correct
    This issue only occurs if I open the document from the Doc ID link in SharePoint. If the documents are downloaded, it will not have this issue.
    Questions
    Can I set PPTX to open in Edit Mode and PPSX to open in Browser Mode?
    Is this fixed as in if I change the registry setting it will affect both file types?
    Is there other ways I can achieve opening PPTX in Edit and PPSX in Browser Mode?
    [Environment]
    My Client machine is running on I.E 9 and Office 2010.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    To make the PPTX file open in Edit mode and PPSX file open in Slide Show mode, I recommend to edit the registry key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PowerPoint.Show.12 to 8.
    I tested the scenario in my environment with changing the key value to 8, after that PPTX file opened in Edit mode and PPSX file opened in Slide Show mode.
    Best regards.
    Thanks

  • PCUI: Automatically open a BP in change/create mode

    Hello all,
    From a custom i-view in the portal with some name and address fields, i would like to call accounts(business partner) change (if an account exists) or call account creation, automatically filling in some fields from my custom i-view.
    So the question is:
    - Can i automatically open account maintenance for a certain account, via an url call or something?
    Is there anyone who knows how to realize this?
    Kind regards,
    Martijn de Jong.

    Hello Gregor,
    It just works partly. As a testcase, i linked the url to a custom tabpage which i added to the BP. This results in showing the portal content studio, which is the start page of the portal, but within the new tabpage.
    So the link opens the portal, but doesn't goto the application.
    The created link (without the base url):
    /roles/com.sap.pct.crm.SalesManager/AccountsProducts/nf/nf_2/
    MaintainAccounts?SAP_QueryString=
    CRM_OBJECT_TYPE%3dACCOUNTCRM
    %26CRM_BOR_TYPE%3dBUS1006
    %26CRM_OBJECT_ID%3d300000

    &~logical_system=CROCLNT010
    &~object_type=BUS1006
    &~object_key=300000
    Some more suggestions?

  • Movie that will automatically open in "fit to screen" view mode?

    I'm wondering if it's possible to save a video in quicktime pro that will, when opened in any normal version of quicktime, automatically open in the "fit to screen" view option. In the visual settings tab of the movie properties, there is an option to automatically open into full screen, but this isn't what I want - I want it to open in the normal (non-fullscreen) quicktime window, but to automatically resize to fit the screen size of the computer it's being viewed on.
    I'm pretty sure that there isn't any easy way to do this, but it's pretty important, so if it requires some scripting or something, that's fine - i'm not a programmer, but i'm willing to do whatever i need to, to make this work.
    Thanks!

    The "Presentation" option is a bit confusing as there are "user" settings that each viewer could have set (double size, Fit To Screen, etc) in the QuickTime preferences and all of them will play with the "on screen" controls feature of version 7. So "full screen" is different because of the dozens of display settings that may be used and the same for "fit to screen".
    If you set the file dimensions too large for a small display setting the viewer will not be able to use the QuickTime controller (it could be "off screen).
    I just checked all my AppleScripts and Automator actions and none include "fit to screen" options. No luck there.
    If you set the movie dimensions (Visual Settings) to the "fit screen" size this would work on your display but maybe not on mine. To do that just open the Movie Info window with your file set to fit screen dimensions, note the size and adjust the file dimensions to those new values and "Save As".
    Easiest method for your workflow would be to send instructions for viewing to the end users.
    Keyboard shortcuts for QuickTime file display:
    Command-0 (zero) = half size
    Command-1 = normal size
    Command-2 = double size
    Command-3 = fit to screen
    Command-F = full screen (presentation mode)

  • Just noticed that when I close my mail app by double clicking the home button and swiping up it dies something weird. After doing this when I open my mail, instead of showing all my mailboxes it automatically opens one of them instead. Anyone know why?

    Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app.  I am certain other applications also need this information.  Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information.  Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!

  • When i open the browser, it automatically open a search engine. It does nt go even when i have selected the option"show a blank page" in the settings!

    this page search engine website gets automatically opened whenever i open the browser.

    Possible solution: if you type ''about:config'' in your address bar and search there for ''browser.startup.homepage'', you can check if it has a strange value and change it to a page you'd like.

  • Safari opening full screen, then automatically opens iTunes. Application ribbon on side of screen is inaccessible.

    Software was automatically installed on my i7 Mac during the last two weeks.  Now the Mac is using MOS 10.7.4 and Safari 6.0.
    Since Safari 6.0 installed on my i7 Mac last week, I have had four problems:
    1)  Sarari now opens showing full screen, completely covering my desktop. ( I don't want this; I want to easily see my desktop.)
    2)  Upon opening, Safari shows the last page I visited.   (In preferences I have clearly requested that Safari always opens with a blank search screen; however, Sarari ignores my request.) 
    3)  Within seconds iTunes opens and becomes dominant.  (I do not want iTunes to open unless I purposefully order it to open.)
    4)  During the above three steps, my application ribbon, located on the left axis, is inaccessible to me...the cursor does not cause the ribbon to become visible.
    Apple, I hope you can remedy this situation.
    Any suggestions from others in the Mac Community?

    Press the escape (esc) key to exit full-screen mode. Close all windows. Quit and relaunch Safari. Does the same thing happen?

  • How can I disable Firefox from automatically opening on system startup on my Mac - unchecking the "open at login" does not work?

    We have Firefox 10.o on our Macbook Pro OS X 10.5.8. I prefer using Firefox as my browser but my husband prefers Safari for now because of a long history of bookmarks and saved information he doesn't have time to re-do. He is tired of Firefox automatically opening when we start up the laptop, and even when we uncheck the "open at login" it still opens at login every time. He is about to uninstall it because of this. How can we disable? It does NOT show up in our account on the Mac OS as an application that starts at login, so we can't disable it there.

    For those of you running Windows, I found this on another site. (Unfortunately, not before getting totally disgusted and switching to chrome.)
    1. click start (or the windows flag button at the bottom left) 2. in the "search programs and files" or the RUN dialog box, enter "msconfig.exe" or "msconfig". 3. That should open the system configuration program. 4. click the "Startup" tab at the top of the opened program. 5. Under the "startup item" column, look for Mozilla firefox. 6. uncheck that one. 7. Click OK or apply. 8. click "exit without restart". 9. you're good to go.

    You saved it after setting the Password? :

    I just tested it and it shows up ijn The Finder with a padlock on the file icon and does require a password to open.

  • I have no navigation bar and firefox will not open in safe mode to reset to default config. Reinstalling doesn't work. Any help please.

    I have no navigation bar ever since I closed it to gain more space on the screen. It won't re-open. Firefox will not open in safe mode, but opens immediately in normal mode with the new improper config, so I cannot reset to default config. I erased Firefox and re-installed and it still opens with the same faulty config. Why does Firefox not give me the safe mode dialog box, why can I not re-open the nav bar, and how can I do these two things, please? Firefox is currently unusable for me without a nav bar and without access to the default settings in safe mode. I cannot research the extensions I'm running since I have no nav bar to go to Tools, Add-ons, Extensions.
