Keynote to iDvd: HELP PLEASE

I'm at the end of my wits, can someone please help?
Keynote presentation to idvd:
when I use the share menu, it works but looks really bad. When I say it works it means that the movie stops where it should and the presenter can hit play and carry on.
How can I make it look better?
I've tried exporting to QT » iMovie » iDVDV although looking much better the movie doesn't stop at the end of a slide.

DVDs are not just video files burned to a disc; they must be authored into a proper format with playback control, menus, and scripts. iDVD makes it laughably easy to do this. But if you want the kind of control that you are used to in a slideshow presentation, then you probably have to get something like Final Cut Studio, and learn DVD Studio Pro. Fine control and ease of use or usually trade offs.
Have you ever used an actual DVD with the kind of interactivity that you are talking about? If so, then it was painstakingly authored with something like DVD Studio Pro, or Vegas, or Encore.

    I am in the process of upgrading from Leopard to Snow Leopard, and then to Mountain Lion.  I was planning on doing a clean sweep, and backing up all of my old content, starting fresh with the new OS.  If I drag and save iDVD to my external drive, will I be able to upload it as a usable app in Mountain Lion?

    You need to archive your project so it includes all media, saving the project only references where the media is. Information about archiving is here. When you archive the project it might become quite large depending on the videos and other media you are using.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/6682.html
    You could also try >file>save as disk image and create a disk image of the project to transfer to your friends computer.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/6723.html
    However, transferring the archive or disk image may be the most challenging since the file could be very large, i.e. you might need to use a portable hard drive or network the two computers together to transfer the file.

    I need to burn a DVD with a menu and everything, but I don't have iDVD. I bought my iMac from an Apple store in March 2012. Help please?

    You may be able to find iDVD as part of the iLife 11 Retail Package. It is no longer sold by Apple, but you may find it on eBay or Amazon.
    Other options include Toast from Roxio.
    See here for more discussion of the options.

    There is nothing wrong with your Dell, it will work fine with any MacbookPro. I have been using Dell displays for over 12 years with many different Mac models. I have two 21" Ultra Sharp displays working side by side to design a Keynote presentation right now.
    The issue your having is with the way Keynote  takes control of the video output to both displays, it sends the presentation signal to one and the presenter display to the other, this is set up in;
    Keynote preferences > Presenter display.
    If you want to show a wesite or another app on  either display,  use application switcher:
    press the the  command key on the keyboard, then the tab key; a row of applications will show what applications are running, choose which one you want to show. Use command  > tab to return to Keynote.

  • On external monitor: GOOD.    after render & dvd: BAAAAD.   help, please!

    Hi, I edited a 60i NTSC video from a canon XL2, and it looks fine on the external monitor (TV), the FCP preview and everything. It even looks good when I export a QT mov with no compression.
    But as soon as I burn it on iDVD and play it on a DVD player, the whole interlacing business goes terribly, terribly wrong.
    I've tried all possible exporting settings, but it doesn't work. Should I de-interlace the clips? I've gathered from reading the forums that it might help, but it sounds like a desperate solution, since the text should be interlaced but not the video?
    I mean... what did I do wrong? Isn't ot supposed to just work straight-through with the NTSC DV Easy Setup and changing only to "None" on the compressing settings at export?
    Any help, please? Anybody?

    oh, OK.
    For exporting, I used the Export>Quicktime movie, just like you said, using the current setting (i.e. Compression:None)
    The DVD player was connected to a PAL TV, but it's OK because the DVD player can read anything. I know because I've watched NTSC as well as PAL dvd movies before.
    The Canon XL2 the Mac is connected to, via Firewire, is NTSC, connected via RCA to the PAL TV. Which means the signal I'm watching is Black & White... (I know this sounds WEIRD)... but it's O.K. because what I'm really checking as I edit is the interlacing problem that I got when playing the DVD on the dvd player.... : the BAD problem.
    How bad? Really bad. Any sudden movement, or panning of objects with vertical lines, like a painting or a building looks all wobbly and curvey and blurry and wrong, which is unnacceptable for the project I'm doing, as it is a professional work (Meaning that I'm charging money for it, despite the crazy assemble of different products and formats I'm using).
    I've gotten things that look good before, but never on Final Cut Pro.. I'm new to the program, and to Mac, and this is the first video I'm exporting to a DVD on this platform.

    Is your Mac new?
    http://www.apple.com/creativity-apps/mac/up-to-date/
    FWIW, iWork as such is no longer available; it is now separate applications: Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.
    Do you have the older (via install DVD) iWork 09 version installed? Then the new versions should show up in Updates (mac app store).

    There are no updates to either OS 10.5.8 or Safari 5.0.6.
    If you need a later version of Safari you must first upgrade your operating system to a later version of OS X.

  • At the end of my IMovie I want to write some text: as in" Happy Birthday Mandy we had a great time with you. etc..  How do I go about this? Which icon in IMovie lets me have a place to write text?? help please

  • I have just updated my PC with version11.14. I can no longer connect to my Bose 30 soundtouch via media player Can anyone help please

    @puebloryan, I realize this thread is a bit old, but I have encountered a similr problem and wondered if you had found a solution. I've been using home sharing from itines on my PCs for years, but two days ago, it suddenly stopped. I can share from my Macs, but not from the ONE PC library where I keep all my tunes. I tried all the usual trouble-shooting measures.
    After turning home sharing off on the PC's iTunes, turning it back on and turning some other settings off and on, my Macs and Apple TV could briefly "see" the PC library, but as soon as I try to connect -- the wheel spins for a bit and then the connection vanishes. It's as if they try and then give up.
    Since this sounds so similar to your problem, I was hoping you finally found a solution. I am also starting a new thread. Thanks!

    Brian - The batteries are fine and there has only every been one keyboard paired with it. We have tried my MacPro keyboard as well, and it will not even recognise that there is a discoverable keyboard nearby.

  • Photoshop Elements 6 on Mac help please !!!!!

    Hi there,
              I need help please !!!!!
    I have PSE 6 for my imac and bought myself a NIKON D60 so far so good. I have installed PSE 6 which comes with ADOBE Bridge CS3
    I have bought a book as well as I am new to photoshop and in fact DSLR cameras.
    I have got my photos into Bridge OK by the way they are JPEG format. According to the book I can open the JPEG in camera RAW by either selecting the JPEG and then pressing cmd+R or by selecting the JPEG and select open with and camera RAW should be available to selct.
    I cannot get of the options to work any ideas please
    Secondly I have taken some photos in RAW format and put then into Bridge again I cannot get the camera RAW interface to open with these neff images.
    If I try to open the image PSE 6 opens and gives me an error that the file format is not supported by PSE 6
    Am I missing something here as I have been trying for a week now !!!!!
    Sorry if this comes across a stupid question but it is new to me
    Chris      UK

    There's no "theory" about it. You should be able to open a raw file from bridge by double-clicking it, but it will open in ACR in PSE. You can't just use ACR within bridge in PSE, if that's what you're trying to do. To open a JPEG in ACR, go to file>Open in PSE and choose Camera raw as the format after you select the file but before you click Open.
    If you've correctly updated ACR, bridge should show you thumbnails of your raw files. If it doesn't try emptying the Bridge cache.
