Keynote file size - excluding files - how?

Hello,
I´m working on a presentation with lots of movie material in it. And my Keynote file is growing and growing.
The thing I want to know is: I can´t save the file in the "save as"-dialogue and uncheck the checkbox "include movies and audio" .... WHY?
... has anyone a clue
Andreas

probably because Keynote won't know where the files are, or it would need to move them OUT of the preso and into some kind of folder, which it won't do for you. You could try dragging slides to a new preso, not you're still going to have problems since all your media is now INSIDE the original file. You might have to delete them one by one, drag them to a new file that has been saved without the include tag, and drop a movie from outside Keynote back onto the new slide. That's how I'd do it.

Missing fonts in Keynote file : how to replace them ?

When opening a Keynote file that had fonts not installed on the system, an alert window used to open.
You could then easily replace the missing fonts with other ones installed.
Not anymore !
The alert window still appears in Keynote V6, but the "replace font" option is missing.
Does anyone know a workaround ?

yeah, I tried the whole modifying the master slide thing but the missing fonts aren't on there, they would have come from slides I deleted as well or already replaced the fonts on so not sure why they are lingering....
oh wait...I think I might have just figured out something. The whole "revert to previous version" wouldn't that have something to do with still remembering fonts used in a previous version? I'm going to try and see if I can duplicate the current document in some way that makes it a new version with no history in it.
Other than that I was going to try exporting to '09 do the replace fonts tool that was in there and then open it back up but I'll have to modify the transitions and shadows that were new to current version of keynote.

How do I reduce the size of a Keynote file beyond the reduction of zip?

Kindly advise.

How do I reduce the size of a Keynote file beyond the reduction of zip?
Why do you need it smaller, what size is the file, what's in the file that you think is making it large.
If your trying to reduce file size to send by e-mail, use a file transfer service instead: Dropbox.

How do i have landscape and portrait slides in the same keynote file?

how do i create landscape and portrait slides in the same keynote file?

You cant, its one or the other not both, the slide size setting is for the whole presentation, not for individual slides.
The slide format is chosen to match the display the presentation is shown on. I have presentations showing on vertical, horizontal, square, circular and iregular shaped screens with rear projection, but a single format must still be set.

Very large Keynote file size

One of my Keynote files has grown to 704 MB and now takes forever to save. How can I reduce the size of this file? I suspect some photos in the file are larger in MB size then they need to be.
Thanks

You'd need to try exporting your images from iPhoto as smaller images before using them in Keynote. I'm not sure if there's a simple way to compress the images that are already in Keynote.

Reducing Keynote File Size

Does reducing the size of a Keynote file degrade the visual quality of the presentation?

Perhaps the file is just large, and you've done everything possible?
One other thing you might want to try is to do a "Save As" with another version number. I just did that to a file that was 27.2 MB and it shrank to 25.4 MB. Not much, I know.
I don't know how KN works internally, but a program like Adobe's InDesign stores all the changes you make to a file at the end of that file (if I understand correctly), and when you do a Save As, it rebuilds the file and gets rid of all the old info.
Just curious, how big is your file, what's in it (lots of images?) and how small were you hoping to get it?

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.

How can I make Keynote files read-only (eg: to share with students)?

I would like to share some keynote files with students, and I would like to set them up as read-only, so that the students can tap the screen, read my presentation, but not alter it. I've tried to set the files up as read-only on my iMac desktop, but when I load the file onto my iPad, it's still editable.
Any ideas re: how to make Keynote files read-only?
I've tried to export the files as PDF and load them into iBook, but some of Keynote's basic "build" functions won't work this way. Specifically, I have files set up with questions and answers (ie - a question appears, and you have to tap the screen to see the answer, but this "build" function seems to disappear when I get it to show up in iBook).
Any ideas how to make Keynote files read-only? I am happy to use another program, but I want the students to tap the screen in order to see the answer to a question.
Thanks!

as long as $PATH is set, you shouldn't need to reconnect them (i think). if you send the list of apps through | awk -F '/' '{print $NF}' | that'll strip the path
/edit: added the "(i think)" part

How to restore a deleted iOS Keynote file on iCloud?

Ok -- i screwed up.
heres my setup:
iPad 1 (iOS 5.01), iPhone 4 (iOS 5.01), MacBook Air Core i7 (10.7.2) <---- synched to -----> iCloud
I use Keynote daily and have presentations synched between all my devices. I accidently deleted a keynote file on my iPhone... and within minutes it was deleted on iCloud and my iPad.
I had a look on my MacBook Air to see if i could find anything in "~/Library/mobile documents/com~apple~Keynote/Documents" there was nothing to be found as expected. I even looked in "~/Library/mobile documents.deleted" -- but i couldn't even find this folder.
SO. Next Step. Restore from iPad backup.
My iPad backups occur everynight into iCloud. I tried to restore from the 3 backups stored in iCloud.
After restoring from the iPad backup -- i strarted up Keynote and briefly for about half a second, i could see the 2 deleted documents (greyed out)... but then they disappeared.
I even tried deleteing iCloud document synching immediately after the backup -- but then when i startup Keynote it says that that my documents have been moved to iCloud, which i can access after enabling iCloud. Duh. Hello. I want to restore the documents from the Backup.
I have spent 4-5 hours with some helful apple support guys -- but there seemed no solution to this problem.
1.WHat are my options?
2. Why can't i restore a Keynote file from my iPad backup (regardless if it was deleted in iCloud).
This is MAJOR bug with iCloud. And i need to get to the bottom of this with Apple.

Your suggestion about Time Machine is noted -- and i think good advice for the future although i think most users would be rather confused on the usefuleness of Time Machine when dealing with iCloud synching with iOS devices.
Its far from obvious on how to access those iOS/iCloud synched documents on OS X Lion.
But the question remains: If a file is deleted in iCloud -- should you be able to restore it from an iPhone or iPad backup?

Is there a maximum size for Keynote files

I want to make sure my Keynote files are functioning well. Is there a maximum size, under which they function best? (either a number of slides, or MB/memory).
I've created the Keynote files on my iPad2, then uploaded them to my iMac desktop, used the "Reduce File Size" option on desktop Keynote, saved, then downloaded onto my iPhone4, and I'm "projecting" the files onto an Apple TV 2.
Thanks!

There's a mathematical limit due to the architecture of PDF object references but it's way beyond anything you could create in practice. Because the Acrobat Family are 32-bit applications you'll find there are performance issues if the file count gets too high - exactly when that becomes a problem depends on both the files and the hardware opening them, but given an XLSX file isn't displayed within the Portfolio (other than as an icon) it'll be less of an issue then if the files were PDFs, videos, etc.

Size limit for how much video can be included in an AIR file?

I'm making an AIR app to play a video locally. It is on a PC with no internet connection, so the video (fv4) is included with the air install file. Is there a size limit for how much video can be included in an AIR file? I seem to get the "...file is damaged..." error when I include a video over 200mb. I use Flash CS4 to create and AIR is v 1.53.

I'm authoring in CS4 on a MAC with the latest OS and 4GB ram. It plays fine on the Mac. On a WIN7 PC with all updates and 4GB ram I get the errors if the air file that contains a video file over 200mb. I heard that AIR 2 should solve the issue and that it is just a PC issue.. Maybe... I have not tried using ADT to package the file.

I have a question about the new version of itunes. in the old version at the bottom of the sceen it display the total number of media and the size of the files. how can i get the new version to diplay this?

You're welcome. It was frustrating for me as well until I stumbled across "the fix"

How do I privately share Keynote file with PC user?

How do I privately share Keynote file with PC user? ShareFile is having trouble with Keynote support. iWork is no longer functioning and I can't tell if ICloud supports this feature. When I export to a Powerpoint all links are lost. It will take me hours to redo in SkyDrive Powerpoint.
Need solution!

I use dropbox

Is There a Recommended Maximum Keynote File Size?

I am prepping my first Keynote presentation and I'm only 20% into it and already have a Keynote file size of 1 gig spread across 28 slides. I'm being careful to make sure that no individual slide gets too big (some using video), but I'm worried that I'm going to end up with something so large it'll give me problems! I know I can scale down file size but I don't think I'll gain that much. My presentation is just two days away!!!!
btw - I'm building on an iMac 3.06 with 4 GB Ram but will be presenting on an iBook Pro 2.66 with 4 GB
Ram. Both with core2 Duo.
thanks!

Hi kwieder: Late reply, but you should've been fine. Did the presentation go ok? You could've done a test run on the MBP 2.66 before the presentation. File size shouldn't really impact the presentation, unless you're using much older computer hardware. File size is just cumbersome when you're presenting for a conference or a company and they ask to check your presentation beforehand or request a copy etc.
