Keynote is exporting only to .pps files

Keynote is exporting only to .pps files when I export to PowerPoint. The pps files play in PowerPoint but they cannot be edited. How can I get an export to a ppt file?

Update:
I solved the problem by manually changing the extension from .pps to ppt. This allowed me to use and edit the presentation in PowerPoint with not difficulties.
I am using Keynote 5.0.5 and OS 10.8.2
I have 8 GB memory and a 2.66 GHz i7

QT Pro 7.6 image sequencing aperture exports - only reads first file

I'm exporting versions (jpg) of files that are originally Nikon raw (NEF) format.
I'm testing with a bunch of images that were grabbed using the camera's continuous mode - want to make sure the system works before doing any real playing with time lapse.
I have a folder with the images - all named image01.jpg, image02.jpg etc etc. No other files in the folder.
Open QT Pro 7.6 - choose Open Image Sequence and select the first image.
It asks for the frames per second.
Whatever i pick - it creates a single frame movie with the first image in the set.
I've tested with two different exports - same issue.
Any hints?

OK - tried this.
For a short test - I have 22 files.

Now - when they were called image01, image02 etc I got a 1sec movie with only the first image.
Now - with these names - I get a movie of the correct duration (so - for example - 2 frames a sec yields an 11 sec movie) but with only the first shot shown (in other words I get to see the first jpg for 11 secs in the 2/s example.
The file command tells me that they are "JPEG image data, JFIF standard 1.01"

Kindle plugin export only converts one file

I am using InDesign 5.0. I installed the lastest version of the Kindle Plugin. I open all my individual indd book chapters (14 in all) and then create a book file which I save (and make sure the TOC styles are copied into the primary Style Source file). When I click the Export to Kindle option, the plugin only converts whatever single indd file I have selected in the window (however all are open in the window). Why is it not converting all 14 of my book chapters at once into one file? I am a new user of InDesign (less than a year) and maybe I am missing something that is so very obvious that I cannot see it -- if you know what I mean. :-) Can anyone explain to me the error of my ways? Thank you! ~ Carolyn

I'm afraid I'd only be guessing at this point. I don't do epub at all. I do know, however, that CS5.5 tends to work better than CS5, and CS6 better still.
One thing would be to make sure your CS5 is fully patched to the 7.0.4 update.

Keynote and PPS Files

Can Keynote be configured so that .pps files automatically open as a slide show.
I have set up a family member with an iMac, OS 10.5, and NeoOffice. She receives attachments as .pps files.
Unfortunately, while NeoOffice can play .pps slide shows once opened, it cannot do so automatically.
See http://trinity.neooffice.org/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=2893

Kelly,
Yes, the app works normally on its own. I've been using it to open .pps files from email or wherever all the way back to whatever OS was there when I first installed it, probably Tiger, and it worked fine all the way up through 10.5.8 on the old G5 iMac. Now, on the new Intel platform and Snow Leopard, I get these failures.
I don't think it's a problem with the files themselves, and I think this is still supposed to be something that works ... but can't be totally sure of that.
In the meantime, I'm left with opening them on the iPad.

I can't see from my PC the .pps files stored into Keynote in my iPad

Hi all, i would want to know if it's possible to see from my PC the .pps files stored into Keynote in my iPad 2. When i am syncronyzing the iPad with the PC, in the iTunes tab called Applications, in its end part there's a double panel (Share files): on the left side, under 'Applications', a list of the Apps. installed on the iPad; on the right side, under 'Documents', a list of the documents that the selected app. on the left has in the iPad.
No problem for Quicknote or Documents to go Premium: i can see the docs these apps. have in the iPad, and thus i can use the 'Save in' option to copy them to my PC, and also i can use the 'Add' option to transfer docs from my PC to the selected app.
The problem is with Keynote application: while i have two docs in this app. in my iPad, i can't see them from iTunes; and also, i can't see in the iPad the docs i transfer to the Keynote app. with the 'Add' button.
I have uninstalled and re-installed the Keynote app. on the iPad (without rebooting the device between the two things) without result.
Any help on this matter would be appreciated. Regards.

I have seen the solution: i have to explicitly share the files from Keynote options:
- IPad --> iTunes: with the presentation open, Configuration > Share and print > Send to iTunes.
- iTunes --> iPad: '+' > Copy from: iTunes.

misleading in some way?

Music of imported pps files doesn't sound on Keynote

I got Keynote on my Ipad, and when I import pps files, its music doesn't sound. It's very strange because the same file, I open it in powerpoint in my mac and it works fine, the musics perfect. So what's the problem? Can i do something on my mac to get this pps file to work with music on my iPad keynote?
thank you

How could I NOT import them? Appointments I do "by hand" show up immediately on the other devices. The imported appointments show up after modification.

Export only Clipping Mask to PNG File

I recently upgraded from Illustrator CS3 to Illustrator CS5.
In CS3, I was able to:
Create a clipping mask to hide a portion of the graphic.
Set the crop area to match the clipping mask.
Export the graphic to a PNG file, with only the portion of the graphic included in the crop area displayed.
In CS5,
Converted the crop area to an artboard.
The clipping mask is already in place, so no changes there.
Set the artboard to match the clipping mask.
Attempt to export to a PNG file, but the PNG file automatically contains the entire graphic, not just the area included in the artboard.
I found a workaround online, but it involves flattening the transparency, ungrouping the object and then manually deleting the portions of the graphic that we don't want/need. While this works, it's not a viable solution because I need the ability to go back and make modifications to the original graphic if needed.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Kellie

You have "Clip to Artboard" checked in save for web or "Use Artbaords" checked for export, correct?

I'm a novice so be nice. I have a list of contacts exported to a .abbu file which I'd like on my iCloud contacts but whenever i try to import them, they don't copy across only into "all contacts"
Can anyone help, any would be appreciated.

You have exported as an Address Book archive file: you need to select all the contacts and choose to export them as a vCard - this is the only format you can import into the iCloud website.

Keynote loads every pps file on my machine

Mac Book Pro 13 inch
Yosemite 10.10.1
Keynote 6.5(2110)
When any *.pps file is double clicked, EVERY *.pps file in the machine is invoked, displayed, placed on screen.

What I meant to say was "every pdf file on my machine" not "every file on my machine".

Why does Apple say that Numbers can open and save Excel files, when in actuality, it can only open .XLSX files and only Export to Excel (not save-as excel)?

When attempting to open .XLS files in Numbers, the format is not recognized. When the format is .XLSX, the format is recognized. Why is it this way? It's still much more common for folks to have the .XLS file format on their excel files. Why would Numbers not be backwards-compatible?
Additionally, to state in the benefits of this program that one can save to 'Excel' is a little misleading. You can't save to anything except .numbers. Sure, you can export to Excel (with file extension .XLS, I might add), but you can't save or save-as.
Does anyone else see the irony in being able to export to .XLS but not be able to open an .XLS?
There is something to be said for clarity.
You can't expect folks to have Numbers and Excel on their systems, so how else are they supposed to open .XLS files in Numbers?
And I don't need to see another advertisement for NeoOffice or OpenOffice here, thanks. I'd actually like Numbers to be a little more sensible.
That is all.

When the advertisements were written, there was no Lion so we were able to Save As Excel.
At thiqs time there is no longer Save As command under Lion but the feature is always available.
When your editing task is ended, you are free to use this scheme:
File > Duplicate
File > Save and in the dialog you will have the option save as Excel.
Numbers isn't and I hope that it will not become an Excel editor.
Its resources contain a flag defining it this way.
I posted several times a script editing this resource.

Pps files

Hi all!
This is something that doesn't always happen:
I've received a pps file which won't open either with PowerPoint or neoOffice apps.
PowerPoint stops responding and I must force quit the app as well as force quite the corresponding MS error reporting app.
neoOffice stops right after the beginning and would not go on after only showing a fraction of one image..
I must force quit it also.
I've read that it would be possible to open a pps file by changing the file extension from .pps to .ppt if keynote is installed, but keynote is not installed, there is only Keynote.mdimporter in: /Library/Spotlight.
As I understand it, keynote seems to be part of iLife, which I don't have nor want to have it.
I've also read that a pps file will not open if it is encrypted but I cannot tell whether it is encrypted or not.
What alternative is there that I can use to open pps files?
Thanks a lot.

So far the suggestions to use Neo Office (if it could work) had been a proven method;
but since .pps files can be derived from Microsoft documents, they may have changed
how they are configured over a few years time; and Neo Office may not have kept up.
Google Docs http://docs.google.com/ would probably be able to handle it; or just send
the pps to someone you know (and trust) who has a gmail address and have them take
screen shots of the content, and email them back to you. Or get a free gmail/accounts
at google as a trial method of opening documents. I have two gmail addresses, no other.
(Their panaramio web page of world images is accessible to upload via a google login.)
Not sure if there is a suitable translator or built-in ability in AppleWorks 6.2.9 (OS X) to
handle those Power Point documents from later Microsoft-created sourced software.
Open Office? It also may have been left behind in how MS related pps/ppt docs go.
A few things may have changed in the past few years, in regard to the abilities of the
open office neo-office kinds of tools; from what I've read, they did work a year + ago
to open .pps and .ppt files.
The presentation suite in Open Office or Neo Office (check for updates with the latter)
should be able to open the downloaded attachment from an email, etc; unless it was
created in a later Windows version of PowerPoint. Keynote can open them.
Not sure what kind of web browser may be able to 'see' the .pps file if dropped on an
empty open browser window. I just looked through my stuff and don't have one .pps
file to test the theory here, unfortunately. However, somewhere I do have an unused
Trial version of an early Keynote software. May be too old to open a new Windows pps.
So, anyway, I thought I'd get back to you. And I do know that people who've sent me
powerpoint file types (I don't download email) were viewed easily in Gmail, online.
Hopefully you can convince them to open. Threats don't work. Bribes? Tithes to software?
Good luck & happy computing!

Keynote and exporting to/from a USB flash drive

I just made an interesting realization -
I have a keynote presentation that I needed to export as a Quicktime movie. The keynote presentation was saved on my USB flash drive, so I plugged in the drive, opened the file, and attempted to export the quicktime file to the hard drive of my macbook pro - it told me "the disk is full or there is a problem with the file"
So, I copied the presentation file onto the Macbook Pro, ejected the USB drive, and tried again - this time it all worked fine.
Does keynote HAVE to write temporary files to the same root directory as the presentation file or something? The hard drive on the Macbook Pro is not even close to full - but the USB drive wouldn't have had room for the movie. What's going on here? Anyone else have this problem?

You may think that's what you saw, but you're almost certainly mistaken. An analagous impossibility: even if your audio speakers had a USB port, and you had an mp3 file on a USB stick, no music would play if you simply plugged the stick into the speaker.
A Keynote presentation in native Keynote format is only presentable by a Mac. If the KN has been converted to a QuickTime film and burned to a CD, it would be playable by pretty much any computer, and also by a CD player (I may be mistaken on this; someone will correct me if I'm wrong). In any case, though, there's got to be something more - a lot more - between the KN file and the projector besides a USB plug before a presentation is presented.

Keynote html exporting

After creating a keynote presentation, I've exported it in html format, and I've played it.
But I noticed that the mouse cursor is hidden by passing it on the slide. There's a way to fix it? Maybe editing the files created by Keynote while exporting (assets folder)?

the mouse cursor is hidden by passing it on the slide.
This is the correct behaviour, the pointed hand cursor will only appear over a hyperlink.

Keynote is exporting only to .pps files
