Keynote file from 6.5.2 won't open in either Keynote 6.2 or Keynote

Hello,
I'm having problems opening Keynote (.key) files sent from a colleague.  I've tried to open the file in Keynote 6.2, but get the error ""File.key" can't be opened" and in Keynote 5.3, but get the error "Unable to open "File.key" because it isn't a valid Keynote document."
He has sent me the files through Slack both as .key, which didn't work, and within a zip file, which didn't help either.
My colleague is using Keynote 6.5.2 and I'm using Keynote 6.2 and have tried also in Keynote 5.3.
Can someone please help? 
Thanks!
Brad

New Keynote file types can't be opened in older versions of Keynote.
Ask your colleague to convert the file to the older iWork 09 file type and send that to you.
To convert::     Export > Keynote 09

    Thanks in advance :-)

    iWork (no 's') for iOS & iWork for Mac have not gone away.
    iWork.com (beta) (also no 's') is going away the end of July. iWork.com (beta) is/was an online method of sharing iWork files with other users & never moved out of beta in 3+ years. It is a completely different entity than the iWork apps & is not & never has been necessary for the iWork apps to function.
    A Numbers document, as well as Pages or Keynote documents, cannot be opened on a PC. You must first export them to a file that a PC can use. For Numbers that is generally Excel. In Numbers on your iPad tap the wrench & then tap Share & Print & choose Excel as the file type.
    As for transfering a file from a PC to an iPad, I'm not sure as I don't use a PC.

  • HELP!! Half of my files from my media folder won't open!!

    I've been using iMovie for years and have never seen this before.
    I created a large project some time ago, and only about 50% of the files from the projects media folder will open. They show up in he media folder as the little black Unix executable file icons rather that the regular white clip icon.
    I've tried importing from within iMovie and get error message -2002, and the message that Quicktime can not parse the file. I've also tried opening the .mov file from the original project folder but no good.
    I REALLY need to salvage these files, any assistance would be much appreciated. I'm using iMovie HD in 10.3.9.
    emac   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    FIXED! SORTED! If anyone else has this problem go here: http://www.berga.nu/%7Eusrlt/imovie/index.html and download the iMovie file fixers.

  • CR2 files from Canon Rebel XSi won't open in CS2

    Ok, so I have a powerbook G4 with Tiger Mac OS X and CS2 student version. I am basically computer illiterate so feel free to state the obvious here.
    I bought a new Canon Rebel XSi and have been shooting raw CR2 files. I have done this in the past with a Canon EOS 1D Mark II and never had a problem... now the error window pops up saying my file is unrecognizable. I did the only things I know how to do which was to check for updates and verify permissions in disc utility - this did not help.
    Still thinking it was my computer or the software I backed everything up and wiped the hard drive clean by erasing and reinstalling the original discs and then reloading CS2 and again doing all of the updates - this did not help.
    I have spent 3 days reading in these forums and trying to clear caches and download DNG's (by the directions into the right library) and still it does not work. I even downloaded trial versions of CS3 and CS4.
    Now I'm sure my computer is a downloaded mess and I still have no access to my raw files!
    Please Please Please help me!

    You're welcome, Nikki.

    <br />&gt;what do you do with the paper with a hard drive icon on it when you download something?
    <br />
    <br /> I assume you mean the
    <i>disc image file</i> with a ".dmg" extension.
    <br />
    <br /> Personally I keep any such disc image file if its contents prove successful and discard it when a new version comes along that also proves to work OK. Otherwise, I delete them right away. It's your choice. I prefer to have the dmg file around in case I have to install its contents again for whatever reason without having to download it again.
    <br />
    <br /> That being said, I don't keep anything on my desktop,
    <b>ever</b>. I download everything to a "Downloads" folder inside my Documents folder.
    <br />
    <br /> Here's what my desktop looks like all the time:

  • How do I move a keynote file from my computer to my ipad?

    I have a Mac OS X version 10.6.8 and an Ipad version 7.0.6. How can I move a Keynote file from my Mac to my Ipad? I do not have Icloud on my Mac.

    Have you tried e-mailing the Keynote file to yourself? You can then press and hold on the attachment in Mail and choose to open in Keynote. However the results may depend on your version of Keynote.

  • Trouble pulling Keynote files from iMac into iPhone4

    I've always been able to pull Keynote files from my iMac desktop into my iPhone4, via iTunes (I connect my iPhone to my iMac, then open up iTunes, go to the "apps" section, select Keynote, then "add" Keynote files from any folder, then pick up my iPhone and "add" the files via iTunes).
    Today one of my files wouldn't download, and my iPhone4 displayed an error message (it looked like the file was almost completely downloaded, before the error message showed up).  Then, I tried to "add" files through iTunes as usual (with the iPhone4 connected), and my iMac gave me an error message any time I tried to "add" a Keynote file through iTunes.
    Does anybody have any similar experience?  Any ideas?  Thanks!

    Welcome to the Apple Discusion Forums.
    The files mat well be incompatible with iMovie. MOV is a container format not a compression format and the compression used may simply the wrong type.
    You could convert your files using Quicktime or similar conversion application, but I feel you'd be better exporting from eyeTV in the correct format to begin with.
    Personally I'd choose to export to QuickTime using Apple Intermediate Codec for video and AAC for audio. You will need to expand the eye TV export options to reveal these options.

  • How can I make a backup to an external hard drive from iPhoto if it won't open?

    how can I make a backup to an external hard drive from iPhoto if it won't open? I just wan't to make a backup to my pictures not my entire computer so how does Time Machine work on that?

      you could also clone the drive or volume, or just some of the user folders. look for carbon copy cloner, then enable the "use checksum to insure file integrity."
      you can have multiple iPhoto Library catalogues in different locations.
    Continue to use TimeMachine and make sure it has 350% or more capacity than your system and data.

    Hey Jean Wood,
    Please let me know whether you are using Adobe Reader or signed up at https://cloud.acrobat.com/.
    Also, try converting any other PDF file to word and check what happens.
    Have you downloaded the file first onto your computer?
    Hope to hear from you.

    My time machine backup disc has apps from Mountain Lion that won't open now that I have Yosemite.  They all say need to be upgraded to Yosemite. Go to app store. But app store sees that I have yosemite so doesn't even show me an udate option. How can Update these files??

    How do you know they won't run in Yosemite? You're not trying to fiddle with stuff in your backup from the Finder, are you? If so you are likely to render that backup unusable.
    WHen when you restore them from your backup, they should be updateable.

    > LR2.2 and ACR5.2 aren't out yet, though, so you will have to wait a bit.
    Don't let ACR5.x availability confuse you. IE, you won't be able to use any version of ACR other than 3.x with CS2. You will have to use the Lr2.x update when it's available, or use the DNG 5.2 converter if CS2 ACR3.x is your preference.

  • When I converted a file from PDF to WORD.DOC it opened as Read Only and I'm unable to alter any of the text.  How can I solve this problem?

    When I tried to convert a file from PDF to WORD.DOC it opened as Read Only and I'm unable to alter any of the text.  How do I solve this problem?  I don't know how to change it from Read Only.

    Dear Sara
    Thank you very much for sending the converted file.  Yes, I am able to edit it - that will be very useful to me and I appreciate your help.
    Referring to your previous message when you said you'd converted via Acrobat and not Acrobat.com, I'm converting via Acrobat.com because that's the only option that is shown (how do I convert via Acrobat? - perhaps that would be more successful).  I'm using the Export PDF website, and the OCR is enabled to "Recognize text in English UK".  However, I've just tried converting a different LPA pdf form, this time for Health & Welfare https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/245571/LPA114_He alth_welfare_LPA.pdf and again I have the same problem as before.  I've altered it from "Read only" and thought I'd then be able to enter text, but "Drawing Tools" is shown in the pane and I'm unable to enter anything onto the form - everything appears to be in images.  Also, the lettering on the heading of' page 1 has become jumbled, with the word "Public" overlaying the word "Guardian."  Any suggestions as to what it is I'm doing wrong would be welcome - I don't like to be beaten!
    Regards,
    Judith.

  • Itunes 11.1.5 does not recognize the switch to 64 bit mode from 32... won't open

    itunes 11.1.5 does not recognize the switch to 64 bit mode from 32... won't open

    Is there some background story to this that might give us some clue?  An error message quoted exactly? Did you just do an update?
    Try starting iTunes with the shift key held down.  If it starts it is probably some old plugin presenting problems.
