Keynote issue with ibooks

Hi, i have a problem with links between sheets in keynote, they don't work on the ipad, does anybody have the same problem?
They should work, because they worked a few times...
(sorry for my english, i'm french)

I came across this discussion and thought I could share something that I discovered today. This may or may not help so I make no promisses, but here goes:
When creating a keynote presentation on the MAC OSX (Hyperlinks ONLY) (I use Lion 10.7.4), then sending to brand new iPad (Version 3) via iTunes, many of the Hyperlinks did not work as well. Heres what I found out by process of elination and you might try.
It turns out the Hyperlinks DO NOT WORK on the iPad when the hyperlinked item is part of a "Group" of items. The odd part is if you ungroup the items and then select ONLY the one item to be hyperlinked, then go to the tools, advanced, "Interactive hyperlinks" the hyperlink created on the Mac already shows up correctly, becuase it was there the whole time ! Bizzare, dont you think. For some reason Keynote on an iPad deo sNOT like any of the hyperlinks to be grupoed with any other items or they DON'T work !
MY solution is this (A Pain in the butt, but it worked 100%) Create your entire presenation, then make a copy version of the file, then enter the new version and make sure ALL hyperlinked items are ungrouped. Then resend to iTunes, and import into Keynote on iPad and Voila !!
Like I said this may not be the same issue as described above, but just might be a solution. I hope this helps someone any way.

HT5067 When using a Keynote Widget with iBooks Author, do the transitions and builds between Keynote slides appear in the iPad preview version of the iBook, or only in the finished product?

I'm using the Keynote Widget in iBooks Author, and the Keynote presentation uses the Magic move transition between slides. When I preview the iBook on a new iPad, the Magic move transitions don't show up (i.e. the transition from slide to slide is standard, not Magic move). Any suggestions?

Hyperlinks and magic move should work but don't. However I found the following as a workaround for me. Use three slides instead of two to generate the magic move effect in Keynote presentations on Ibooks using hyperlinks only. As an example
Supose an object on slide 1 was set as a hyperlink to go to a slide which then had a magic move effect to a third slide. For some reason it works on the mac, but not on ibooks. However you can create the magic move transition effect by simply adding a "dummy slide" as follows. Suppose an object on slide 1 had an object which would hyperlink to slide 4. Duplicate Slide 4, and make the duplicate slide 5. Then set Slide 4 to automatically transition (with no effect) to the next slide (i.e. slide 5) after .5 seconds. Have Slide 5 set to transition to Slide 6 using magic move automatically after .5 seconds. By having the hyperlink point to slide 4 the magic move effect from Slide 5 to Slide 6 works fine (with a brief 1 sec delay). IF the hyperlink pointed directly to Slide 5, the magic move transition to slide 6 would not work.
For some reason having an extra slide makes magic move work even though it is not needed on the mac. I hpe this helps.

Pages, Numbers, Keynote issue with WebDAV

I am in need of your assistance as the new version of Keynote appears to be causing issues, and I am not sure where to go or what to do to report this.
Here is the situation.
We have a Sharepoint server running WebDAV services. Our students use WebDAV capable applications on their iPads such as Pages, Numbers, Keynote, WebDAV NAV +, etc. They create files using these apps on their iPads and then save them to their "WebDAV" folder on the SharePoint server. This is necessary so that students may access their files via the iPad in our LMS and turn in assignments via a digital dropbox. This has worked fine in the past until the update of Pages, Numbers, and Keynote. In the past these apps on the iPad have always placed a single file on the server to which the students could go in and retrieve the file or send it to a digital dropbox in our LMS through a WebDAV connection between the LMS and the SharePoint server.
With the update of these apps on the iPad to the newest version, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote now place a folder on the SharePoint server of which it contains the following items: folder titled "Data", folder titled "Metadata", icon titled index.zip, icon titled preview-micro.jpg, icon titled preview-web.jpg, icon titled preview.jpg.
The issue is that now with this being a folder, students are no longer able to retrieve the file nor are they able to go into the LMS and send the file to a digital dropbox as it is now a folder and not a packaged file.
This is a serious setback to us as it renders Pages, Numbers, and Keynote useless since they can not use their iPads to retrieve or submit their assignments to a dropbox in an LMS or bring it back to the apps on the iPad.
As I said earlier, this worked perfectly fine prior to the new version of Pages, Keynote, and Numbers.
I believe this to be a Pages, Numbers, Keynote issue as when I send the file from Keynote to the WebDAV folder as a PPT, everything works fine. Kind of hard to get the staff to use Keynote when all they see is the "PowerPoint" verson works with no issues. Also, this would be a poor work around for something that use to work in the past.
Anyone else experience this or have suggestions?
Thank you in advance.

I'm not sure if this is exactly what your original post is about but I saw the comments under it talking about
getting the same notification over and over again that dropbox files were updated, like it's in a loop and won't stop. I also am seeing the properties.plist, index.zip and preview-micro.jpg as the updated file names when I click on my little dropbox icon on the top of my desktop. I am on a Macbook Air OS X 10.9 (Maverick). I've been using dropbox for a while and this seems to have started after I upgraded to Maverick.
I wrote to Dropbox and here is the process they had me follow to correct this problem, and it worked perfectly, so I thought I'd share (**the only step that I didn't do is step 4 because I couldn't find the dropboxhelpertools folder in my library):
Thank you for contacting Dropbox Support!
There appears to be a problem with the Dropbox software currently installed on your computer. I'm going to have you do a full reinstall and resync to attempt to fix the problem.First, make sure you save and quit ALL programs that access files in the Dropbox folder.
Here are the steps:
1. Download the newest version:
- http://www.dropbox.com/install/
2. Stop the Dropbox desktop application (if needed)
- Click on the Dropbox icon.
- Choose Quit/Stop/Exit
3. Delete Dropbox meta-data folder:
- To delete this folder open a Terminal (Located at /Applications/Utilities/Terminal for Mac OS)
- Copy and paste the following lines into the Terminal and press RETURN:
mv ~/.dropbox ~/.Trash/dropbox.old
- This will move the folder to the Trash and make it visible.
4. Delete the Dropbox Contextual Menu Item Plugin
- Open the Finder and select Go to folder... from the Go menu (or press Shift-Command-G)
- A dialog box should appear. Now copy and paste the following line into the box and press the return key:

Display and power issue with iBook G4

My girlfriends iBook recently started acting up... here's the situation. I'm pretty sure it is a G4 but not positive. It's the "chiclet" version and a HD900? After coming back from a vacation the display seemed to go strange. I was able to get it to boot up just fine but every time I do the display starts to show bleeding colors and crazy patterns after a few minutes. When I do boot it up it always shows the "Your computers time is set to a date prior to" error as well. If I hold down the power button I get a rapidly blinking light on the front panel and a chime.
Does anyone have any thoughts? Does that model have some sort of internal battery that might need replacing? Any type of reset that I might try? Any help appreciated!

Thanks Ronda
It looks like I was wrong about the G4... I'm pretty sure this is the model that I'm dealing with

Can you help with encryption issue with iBook G3?

I have an iBook G3 with operating system 10.2.8. As of yesterday, I am having troubles connecting with my wireless service. It works fine when I plug the DSL cable in. The wireless icon shows up several networks; the one we are paying for is checked. Yahoo will not connect at all; some other websites will. I called our AT&T service and the tech support told me that it is an encryption error. Mac online support cannot help because the computer is too old and beyond warranty. I don't know what an encryption issue means. Can someone help? Thank you!

Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
Read the instructions in the following Apple Knowledge Base carefully, paying close attention to the section entitled "AirPort client to third-party base station":
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106424
Are you able to determine which type of encryption is used in your wireless network, based on comparing what you see on the iBook to the two diagrams?

PDF issue with iBooks, iPad in iOS 5

Is there anyway to enable hyerlinks in a PDF when viewing in iBooks or Safari iOS 5? I didn't know if this was an option somewhere in settings.app or a general limitation of PDFs on the iPad. Any thoughts?

They most likely know and will be addressing the issue Ina bug fixing patch to iOS 5.

Multiple issues with iBook G3

I have three accounts and have multiple questions.
I have iTunes and iPhotos both set to share libraries and nothing happens. Two of us cannot listen to iTunes saved by one account, nor can we see photos one users saved.
Also, with one account, every time we open it it asks for the administrators password to make changes even though we are just logging in to look at files.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

You may want to try asking in the iTunes and/or iPhoto forums.

I don't believe that File Sharing in System Preferences is meant for sharing within different accounts on the same computer. It refers to File Sharing between two computers over a network. Separate accounts allow for each user to have his or her own music and photo libraries in iTunes and iPhoto. I don't believe that there's any way to selectively share between the two. The only solution I know would be to copy the music and pictures from one user's library to the other's if you want to have separate accounts that have the same music and photos, and even that may not be possible without saving them to another source first and then importing them to the other person's library.
As a matter of fact, I have just managed to delete my own iTunes library by placing it in the Shared folder in an attempt to share it with a second account, so be careful in what you are attempting to do.
I had hundreds of CDs imported, and had not backed up my music folder in several months, so I have a long slog ahead of me to get my iTunes music back.
I hope you have better luck than I did.

VoiceOver issue with iBooks on iPad and iPhone in iOS 4.2.1

I use the VoiceOver feature of my iPad and iPhone. After I upgraded to iOS 4.2.1 I was unable to buy any books from the iBooks store. I had to disable VoiceOver to make my purchases (not an easy feat when you need VoiceOver!)
I particular, I've found two bugs.
1. When I have VoiceOver enabled while using iBooks, I can not select the price button to buy a book.
2. While I'm in my Account page by first selecting "Apple ID: myappleid" at the bottom of an iBooks page and then selecting [View Apple ID] from the pop-up, I'm unable to modify any of the fileds. VoiceOver tells me I can select the fields, but when I try to, the control (numeric keypad, picker item, etc.) is not displayed and I have no way of modifying the field. H have to disable VoiceOver and navigate back to make my changes.
How do I report this to Apple?

The best place to let Apple know your views is via the channel they have set up for that.

You have unsaved changes to iTunes Producer Issue with iBooks file

MacBook OSX Lion 10.7.5
ITunesProducer Vers. 2.9.1 (375)
My machine has been phased out and updating the OS will happen when ache e elel freezes.
So, I followed what other people did when receiving this error and saved my file. I exported the saved file to my desktop as an Ibooks file. I then attempted to upload the saved file and this still pops up on my screen. How do I get rid of this errorwithout needing to buy a new machine? Or, do all Macbooks eventually become landfill lessees for a producer? Your help is appreciated.

Software glitches such as this do not warrant disposal of the computer - so the landfill problem is averted.
I notice in the image that the itmsp number is a copy - I say this because I have never seen any items number ending -1 - which is ( to me) a sign that this is a copy made either during a transfer or intentionally.
iTunesProducer will not recognise this - because its not the same number which it created during the first upload.
I suggest you delete the "-1" from the itmsp number and double click it to open iTP or open iTP and copy and paste the number.
Check the file content in full - which means you may have to add the screenshots and book files - then save it.
Another interpretation.... the file cannot be moved because it does not exist - and what you are seeing is a link - although there should have been a curved arrow as seen on all alias links.
BTW if you consider that updates or a computer crash threatens your book files.... its wise to save a copy of the iBA file - the book in progress in iBA - NOT the exported version which cannot be opened in iBA.

What is going on with IBooks?

I have a lot of books and PDFs and I can open a PDF in IBooks but I can't launch IBooks by touching the icon! I tried everything. Reset, restart, it says "unable to download IBooks this time".

I am having major issues with links in keynote! Even though the links (a navigation system) are on the master page, they are only working on some of my slides. Anyone have ideas on how to fix this or similar issues? Help!

I am having major issues with links in keynote! Even though the links (a navigation system) are on the master page, they are only working on some of my slides. Anyone have ideas on how to fix this or similar issues? Help!
I have created a navigation system on the master pages and set the presentation to links only mode. I also have other links scattered throughout the program, like a linkable table of contents, etc. Some of them work, some of them don't. Not sure why. Anyone out there having similar issues? Or have any idea on how I can solve this issue? Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Links should not create any problems in Keynote. If they are set up correctly on text, the text will be underlined. Objects that have links will have a curved arrow bottom right, if you click the arrow a popup will display the link information.
Try this repair for Keynote, ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
1
delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, using Appcleaner from Mac Update, its a freeware application
2
empty the trash: Finder > Empty Trash
3
Shut down your Mac, wait 30 seconds, then power on the Mac, immediately after the start chime, hold down the Shift key
When you see the grey Apple symbol and progress indicator (a spinning gear), release the Shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, then hold down the Shift key again as you click Log in.
4
Let the Mac fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
5
when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and click repair disc permissions
6
when complete, restart the Mac normally, Apple menu > Restart
7
install Keynote from the Mac App Store
let us know if this helped

I cant find my pdf/ibooks on computer after backing up my iPad (they are on my iPad). Also, I'm having issues with my Ipad turning off about every 2 minutes so I want to restore it. Dont want to lose my files from my iPad.

Actually I have 2 problems: I cant find my pdf/ibooks on computer after backing up my iPad (they are on my iPad). I looked under Ipad, I Books, PDFs, and it doesn't show them on the computer. How do I manually transfer these files?
Also, I'm having issues with my Ipad turning off about every 2 minutes, and I want to restore it. I want to make sure all of the files are backed up before I restore. My trouble started when I was trying to update my IPad but it was taking too long (internet was scetchy) so I powered off...now Im having problems. I haven't tried to update again since this problem. Any suggestions? Should I restore? Should I update to 7.0.6? (currently 7.0.3).
Thanks,

Keynote slides with video - not linking in Ibooks Author

Hi
I have a problem with linking Keynote slides containing videos in Ibooks author. I am using the latest version of both programs on Yosemity (6.5.2 keynote, Ibooks Author 2.2 )
The keynotes is set up with ‘Links Only’ and it works perfectly in Keynote. In Ibooks author the ‘link only’ is not working and the slides just progresses to next one. Like the Presentation type was set to normal, whether or not I press the link or outside the link. The exact same keynote slides without the video doesn’t have this problem and links perfectly in Ibooks Author. The result is the same testing the Ibook directly on the Mac or on the Ipad Air (8.1.2)
To make sure about the video types I tried a number of different ones (different Mac/Ipad video conversion programs) all with the same result. The result is also the same whether it plays ‘on page’ or ‘full-screen’ in the Ibook. The videos all plays perfectly but the links are not working.
Saving the keynote to 09 seemed to solve the problem. I am new to Ibooks author …. And the whole Mac environment. But I am thinking it’s supposed to work without having to do this????
The same happened when I tested a linked keynote example from Lynda.com. ‘Ibooks essential training’. Only in the 09 version it was working with the links, when the slides had videos. This example was off course also created in an earlier Keynote version.
Niles , Denmark

This is a problem that I've reported both here and via bugreport.apple.com. However, I don't think that it has to do with screen resolution (retina/non-retina). Rather, I think it has to do with setting the widget to "full screen" where transport controls cannot be used and selecting a "Links Only" presentation.
I used simple forward and back arrows set (Control-click on object) to go to next slide or previous slide. What I found was that while this works as designed when played back in Keynote (OS X or iOS) but not in the Keynote widget. The links only setting and these hyperlinks are totally ignored in the Keynote widget. Tapping anywhere went to the next slide. Tapping on the back arrow also went to the next slide,

Go back one animation on the iPad for Keynote integrated in iBooks Author

When playing a Keynote presentation, you can go back one animation if you hold down the Shift key while pressing the back arrow key.
But how can you do this on the iPad when you have integrated the Keynote presentation with a widget in iBooks Author?
Tapping or swiping brings forward each animation step by step. Bu swiping backward brings you back to the start of the slide.
Is there an equivallent for Shift+back arrow on the iPad for iBooks?

I have the same issue. I am also using the Keynote remote from my Iphone.

Issues with updating Apple apps with app store

I have begun to have issues with (all?) Apple apps and App store. including not updating after download, and repeat downloading. Two examples:
I had Pages 5.0.1. 3 days ago I used the app store to download Pages 5.1. This downloaded OK (watched the volume of data on Net Monitor). Although my Pages works OK it remains on 5.0.1, although the App Store shows that 5.1 has been “installed in the last 30 days”, and does not offer any further update. Same scenario for Numbers 3.0.1 and 3.1.
on the other hand
Keynote, iMovie and iPhoto won’t even open at all now, if I try to open them I am directed immediately to Apple sign-in in the App Store. Keynote and iMovie show updates available, but not iPhoto. I signed in when I tried just now opening iPhoto, and it immediately starting downloading the software again. I think my iPhoto was 9.5.1, downloaded in December and working fine since then.
I have access only to limited slow expensive broadband. This is taking my whole monthly allowance.
Is there some updating controlling software or file on the HD that could be corrupted?
Any ideas?
Thanks

Have been to Library, and looked in Receipts/InstallHistory.plist
This plist confirms that on 27 Jan App Store downloaded Pages version 5.0.1 again (actually for the third time it appears), although it was supposed to be downloading version 5.1. My App Store/Updates page says version 5.1 was installed (which it isn’t). Same issue for Numbers.
The plist also confirms that the App Store forced me to download the same version of iPhoto in December and Today.
Keynote and iMovie (not one of the iWork) won't open until I download again, but do not have the internet capacity to redownload these large files again and again.
So far iTunes, Aperture and iBook do not seem to be affected. By the way have done simple things like restart, repair permissions etc...
Are there some files/applications that control the downloading of new versions that might be malfunctioning?
