Keynote to iMovie '09 Text is Fuzzy at Full Screen View

I haven't seen any postings like this so I'm starting a new thread...
I have a keynote with mostly text and transitions (slide size1024x768) I exported to QT (custom full size, H.264, 30 frame rate, 24 key frame rate, data rate of automatic and compression quality at best.)
I import this mov into iMovie where I'm adding some audio. I now need to export the movie to play from a Windows machine (that has QuickTime) onto a HDTV.
I've been trying all sorts of export options from iMovie but the quality of the text gets very fuzzy when I view the exported movie in full screen on my iMac. What settings should I be trying to ensure I'm getting the best quality movie on the HDTV playing from QuickTime.

Thanks for your reply AppleMan1958. Unforunately the playback problem was only experienced in the project described, - all other projects played fine....and I tried a lot of different ways to do it...so I really believe the whole project, including the playback (which did not work in the editing window in the right hand corner either, -nothing was shown there and the red marker line would not move across the project) just suddenly become totally corrupt...However, after deleting the project as described above and installing imovie11 I have done the whole thing over again and completed the project without problems this time.
But thanks for the tip anyway!

How can I create a full-screen view of Keynote slide in Snow Leopard?

How can I create a full-screen view of my Keynote slides in Snow Leopard?
I'm going to be importing into ScreenFlow to create a video.
Thank you!!

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Do you want static screen captures or motion video of slides as titles, bullet points, and the like are presented?
Run the Keynote slide presentation in full-screen mode, then...
Static full-screen captures - use Command+Shift+3.
Static partial-screen captures - use Command+Shift+4 and use cursor to select the area of the screen to capture.
If you want motion video as builds occur, why not use Keynote's built-in Share, Export function?
(I'm on iLife '09.)
Also understand that the default slide format for Keynote is 1024x768, not full-screen MacBook 1280x800 screen size, so you'll have wide black borders unless you change the default size or crop the finished screen captures.

All my caption text went away from full screen in organizer pse 10

Use the menu Preference/General.
You have a button to press on the bottom of the screen : 'reset all warning dialogs'.
Then start the full view (F11); you'll get the popup menu to set the preferences for the full view; check to show captions.

Want Keynotes' presenter's display to be NOT in full screen

Hello,
I do live music shows on a Single MacBook Pro. Retina Display, Running 10.10.1
In my show I run Keynote for visuals (always on a secondary large TV via HDMI out) and I run Audio via MainStage from the Logic Suite.
I want to be able to exit work in MainStage, (switching songs, changing volumes etc.) WITHOUT interrupting Keynotes Video display or pictures, text, videos etc.
How can I do this.
The only way to play a slide show is to play it, and when it plays it automatically turns the presenter's display to full scree, thereby locking me out of access to MainStage, or any other software.
Any way to play a Keynote slide show NOT in full screen for the presenter's display????
please help.

When Keynote is in play, no other applications will be seen as Keynote takes over complete control of the graphics system, if you switch from Keynote to another application, Keynote will be hidden. Keynote has always worked this way.
We use two Macs to be able to display Keynote and a second application.

Why is my title a little fuzzy in full screen?

I selected a title to lay over my first clip but it's a little fuzzy (pixelated) in full screen. Why is this and how can I fix this?
I would appreciate any assistance.
Thanks,
Darryll

What are the pixel dimensions of your monitor?
You can reset the workspace to its default by deleting your preferences folder.

Full screen view fuzzy

when in full screen image fuzzy memory100% unavailable

(I believe) I have this same issue with my Mini (1.25 G4, 1GB RAM) and a Westinghouse 24" @ 1920x1200. I think it has something to do with screen resolution and that the G4 mini (which I believe the original poster also has) has 32MB of video RAM. Setting screen size to 1600x1200 (temporarily) allows use of Time Machine. At 1920x1200, you can't use TM since the screen flickers/flashes too much.
I also have a screen invert problem in general with 10.5.4 when sometimes closing windows, so I think 10.5.x must be pretty resource intense. Still, seems like a software bug. I don't think it's hardware failure since 10.4.11 doesn't have any problems, even with graphic intense stuff.

Imovie 11-I can't get rid of the filmstrip in the full screen viewing?

I'm using I-movie 11 on a Macbook pro 2011. I can't get rid of the filmstrip when viewing the video I made in full screen mode.

Try moving your mouse to the upper third of the screen.

Next Slide/Slide Transition in Full Screen on my Keynote Movie

Hello everyone,
I hope you can help? I have been using Keynote to prepare some slides for a talk I am delivering and to ensure I have no 'technical mishaps' I need to have a copy of the Keynote in a .mov format so that it can be played in Quicktime on a Mac or a PC.
I have exported the Keynote to Quicktime which works brilliantly on my Mac and on the PC when you view it in the Normal View. You can use the left/right arrows on the keyboard to move forward and backwards through your slides and use the mouse to access the hyperlinks. The problem occurs when I enter Full Screen View (which will be necessary when I deliver this talk!) - although a mouse click moves the slides on I cannot find any way of moving back a slide, or of accessing my hyperlinks.
Please help?!
Thanks, Chrissi

Do you have the PDF version to fill the full screen and not leave borders? If you print to PDF (not create PDF), then a margin is added by default (as when you print to paper). The border can be reduced to 0, but that is an extra step with the print. As I recall, the PDF Maker (create PDF) does not include the margins. Thus the whole margin bit may be the issue.

Help with exporting Keynote to iMovie

Hello, I am working on a project in both Keynote and iMovie in which I am making some slides in Keynote, exporting them as Quicktime, and then importing them into iMovie. The slides primarily are composed of scanned pages from a book and thus have lots of small type. In Keynote, the text comes out very sharp and I can read it all perfectly. When I import the Quicktime movie into iMovie, however, the text looks very blurred and is almost unreadable. It looks like a JPEG which has been compressed way too much. However, I believe I have all of the compression settings set as high quality as possible. All of the other Keynote slides export and import just fine, only the text is giving me problems. Could someone please show me how I can export the Keynote slide so that the text shows up in iMovie just as clear as it looks in Keynote?
Thank you very much,
Daniel Baker

well, in that case you need to determine if this issue only happens with a perticular report or all of them, if it happens only with reports imported from 5.x or with newly created reports as well.
Looks like it is happening only when report is exported from Infoview, not in the Deski client. This might indicate a problem at the Web Apllication server (tomcat or one you use).
If this issue is happening with any report - it might be a bug. In that case you have no options as there are no more patches for XIR2.
On the other hand - if all you need is to extract data for consumption in another tool , why not use Data integrator instead ?
Also, if this desn't work in Deski - does it work if you convert your reports to webi and export from those ?

Keynote/idvd/imovie question

I have a specific project that needs to be done and I want to ensure that I do it in the most effective way.
I need to make a professional slideshow to be shown in seminar rooms for training purposes. The show needs to have text headings, pictures of people and music (more than one song/presentation). There is a possibility of needing graphs/charts as well.
The tricky part is that it won't be static. We'll be changing the pictures everytime we show it (they will be pictures of the participants in each individual seminar) and we will change the music as well.
I need something that makes it really easy to swap music and pictures, and it needs to be somehow projected (picture and sound) for a large audience (100?).
I am thinking that I'll do it in keynote and export to idvd, but I think the music will be hard since we want more than one song per presentation. Can you export keynote to imovie? If so, I think that will be the easiest. I could do the whole thing in imovie, but that seems complicated.
Any ideas would really be appreciated.
Amy

It does not need to be interactive at the time it is shown, there will be access to a mac or we can run it off of a DVD (actually anything is possible and it is up to me so I want to plan in advance for whatever the best route may be), and yes, there will be different slides and there will need to be different music throughout. Let me know if I understood and answered all your questions.
Part of the challenge is that the music may have to be changed every 3 months or so (we will have a seminar once a week and show the presentation once each week) and the pictures will change every week (based on current participants).

TS4213 Why can't iPhoto, Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iTunes Library files and Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iPhoto Library files now that I upgraded to '11?

Why can't iPhoto, Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iTunes Library files and Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iPhoto Library files now that I upgraded to '11?
Examples of what is going on:
1. In Pages, Numbers & Keynote, when I go to the media browser the Audio section reads "Open iTunes to populate this list" even after iTunes has been opened, .xml file has been replaced/repaired, etc AND Photo section reads "Open iPhoto to see photos from your iPhoto Library in this list" even after iPhoto Library has been replaced and new default library created.
2. In iMovie, similar thing ... when I go to add photos or music to a movie the iTunes files aren't present and the iPhoto photos are missing with similar messages as in #1.
3. In iPhoto, similar thing ... when I go to add music to a slideshow it says to "Open iTunes to populate this list".
It is shocking to me that Apple would let something as simple as a pathway link to associated library files get this messed up on an upgrade, but what's even more surprising is that with the number of people who seem to be having this particular issue (and I can tell from all the research that I've done for weeks online that there are a lot of them) that there doesn't seem to be a single clear answer to fixing it anywhere on these community support forums. Most of what I've seen is rehashed advice from outdated issues. What I need is a simple answer to how do we get these programs to look for the correct location of the photo and music files because I sure can't seem to find any logical place to do that through the programs' preferences files or the system preferences window?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. Here's the details on the software/hardware:
MacBook Pro
Mac OS X
Version 10.7.5
2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
iTunes 11.0.4 (4)
iPhoto '11 9.4.3 (720.91)
iMovie '11 9.0.9 (1795)
Keynote '09 5.3 (1170)
Pages '09 4.3 (1048)
Numbers '09 2.3 (554)

I have the same problem on a new MacBook Pro. I have not been able to access the iTunes library from iPhoto since I got this computer. I looked in the Preferences file and deleted the com.apple.iApps.plist but there was no com.apple.iApps.lockfile so I just deleted the iAPPs.plist and rebooted the computer. Still no iTunes available in iPhoto.
All my music is in iTunes and plays. After reading the above I brought up Pages and I was able to access music and insert a track into a document.
Do you have any suggestions.

Export a quicktime movie in keynote into iMovie?

I am trying to take video that is in Keynote and export it into iMovie. Possible? How?

Keynote: Exporting a presentation from Keynote to iMovie

What's the best export format for Keynote to iMovie?

Okay, here is the situation, I have a lengthy Keynote presentation which I plan to export via QuickTime so it can be imported in to iMovie in order to do voice-overs. The question I have is what the best format is to use to export from Keynote in order to import in to iMovie. I am obviously looking for the format which is the smoothest, doesn't lose any quality, and will look clear once imported in to iMovie. Also, there is no reason to use H.264 since size during the transfer doesn't really matter to me, besides, H.264 seems to be somewhat jerky with Keynote exports (or maybe it's just my computer) as I am using some of the graphics intensive transitions and effects.
Also, I know that when you send movies directly from Keynote to iDVD or from iMovie to iDVD, it uses a format which is directly compatible and there is no conversion that takes place, is there a format which will work this way from Keynote to iMovie or does it always have to do the conversion.
Finally, the other thing you should know is that I created the presentation in Keynote using 1280x720 in order to achieve the true widescreen aspect ratio. Now, I am NOT looking to keep this in HD, once I import it in to iMovie, I only need the standard DV Widescreen resolution since I will eventually transfer it to iDVD to burn it as a widescreen DVD. So, I would also appreciate some sort of input as to whether I should export the QuickTime file out of Keynote as the full 1280x720 and then let iMovie do the down-sampling, or should I export it directly out of Keynote using the standard definition widescreen resolution? Please, I would appreciate ANY help on this!!!

Hi Cornelius,
this is the workflow I had which worked fine for me:
My situation was that I had two existing movies in different formats, which a had to filet, add keynote foiles at the beginning (like "Confidemus presents" and so on), between chapters and at the end.
The best way to stick all this together was indeed to export to Qicktime and there to choose the highest resolution. There are several options. The most important point was to have all transitions within foils in keynote approprately defined, because after export it is not possible to do something in iMovie with it.
After having edited the movie in iMovie (that means adding transitions), next I will use Garageband to add sound. So you see that is the point where I'm standing at the moment. I have one time edited sound with iMovie, but Garageband seems to be more sufficient to do that. I have done a little radio play together with my daughter with Garageband and I found it very nice and - of course - easy to use. There are more effects in it and when you are familiar with this editing scheme in Garageband you will love it.
All the best
Fernando

PDF Text Blurry Fuzzy... but only on one machine...

I could really use your assistance. When viewing a PDF, one user can see the PDF text with great clarity, but the same PDF viewed by other users, the text appears fuzzy / blurry. I've tried to massaged about every Preference I could (within Acrobat) and through Windows 2003, but nothing worked.
The machines (corporate image) are (should be) identical as is the hardware.
Has anyone successfully resolved this issue?

Thanks for your help.
I'm using Aperture 2.1.4, sorry I should have mentioned that in my original post.
I've installed the RAW Compatibility Update nonetheless, but no joy.
I did a consistency check on the database and nothing came up. Then I did a rebuild and it almost worked. Luckily, I did this on a copy of the library. It removed most of my images from my library, but those that remained (which were a seemingly random subset of my whole library) were fine.
I'm now making another copy of the library from the Time Capsule
It's strange that it would be a problem with the database if it works fine on my MBP, don't you think?
I'm out of ideas!
