Keynote won't swap displays

when using keynote, by macbook pro won't show presenter notes but the T.V. does
help??

Okay, so I solved my own problem. :-) I was looking at Keynote preferences under the "Presenter Display" section, but I never looked at the "Slideshow" section. Turns out the settings got changed around on the "Present using Primary Display" and "Secondary Display" setting. Once I got them fiddled around correctly, it worked.
I have to say that having those settings in one section and the "Use alternate display to view presenter information" in another section makes it easy to overlook.

Swapped displays- now won't boot

Thanks in advance for any help provided with this:
I swapped displays between two white macbooks (one was cracked). Now the macbook with the new screen can only just boot past the chime and the apple logo and then- kernel panic! - "you need to restart your computer........" big long error message OR the BSOD.
Tried safe mode, it's no better.
Booting in verbose mode i see the error "GFX0: family specific matching fails" and "display: family specific matching fails"
Is there a way to make the macbook happy with the new display?
Thanks again.

Personally, I'd just save whatever you need from that hard drive, then wipe it clean and reinstall whatever OS you deem fit.
The hardware between these two machines is *way* too different. Even if you get the drive to boot in the Z60m, it will never work properly and might crash on you at any given point.
I fully understand that a lot of people view "fresh" installs to be a pain, but in this particular case that's the only way you'll have a stable system.
Good luck.
Cheers,
George

I transfered my iWork '09 to my new Mac Air. Now my Keynote won't open. I get message, "An unexpected error has occurred, please quit and reopen Keynote." This doesn't work.

so Keynote still isnt working after installing, I thought you had it sorted from your last post.
If you have not done so remove any files relating to iWork and Keynote and reinstall iWork
files that must go are:
the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications;
the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support
the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library >
There are a number of free application removal tools that will do this for you:
trashme       webpage
apptrap        webpage
appcleaner   webpage

Keynote won't open

I tried to open a PPT file in Keynote and it crashed. Ever since then, Keynote won't open at all. It seems to open, then crashes in 5 seconds. Need to use Keynote on my laptop and I don't have my discs right now either.

Are you referring to the iOS app that you tried to open a ppt in, or desktop. You posted in iOS/iPad iWork community. But refer to using the laptop.
iOS only - Restart device completely by holding down the power button until the red slider shows up and shut down. Resart and see if it works.
If that doesnt work, or its desktop only and restart doesnt fix it, I would reinstall Keynote. Desktop can be done if you purchased through the AppStore I beleive.
On iOS, make sure you sync your device prior to deleting Keynote. I had it delete all documents in my "iTunes: folder when I did this once. Use iTunes to copy all files in Keynote iTunes folder to your desktop, then delete and reinstall the app. Make sure you restart your device.

File.encoding won't swap

trying to help someone who has a windows file server originally installed for russian locale. they managed to swap it back to what they require (en_GB) but the JVM file encoding's still stuck on cp1251. they say they've changed the JVM config's file encoding ("-Dfile.encoding=cp1252") yet the system still reports cp1251 for the file encoding (even after several reboots). i don't see anything in the bug parade & i'm at a loss as to why this box won't swap it's JVM file encoding.
any ideas?
thanks.

which version of the videoencoder are you using?
2.0.0.494 edition (Brand New)
Remember that you can't crop all files at once . .
Oh, didn't see that in the manual!
Where the heck is it listed?
I tried to save a profile with the compression setting -
including cropping - but upon trying to use that saved profile - a
dialog box comes up with:
Warning: some of the settings (crop, trim, cue point . . . .
Too bad, so sad!
2,000+ movies is gonna take a long time!
Their huge files - broadcast DVC-Pro - and the overscan - and
interlace top & bottom show up . . . . Aaarrrgggg!
Bye the way - is it 4 pixels cropped - top & bottom - to
clean it up ?
And shouldn't a few (maybe 2 pixels) on each side be cropped
as well?
Any other suggestions on how to automate what I need to do
(deinterlace, crop 4 pixels top & bottom & 2 pixels sides -
exported "High Quality / large)
Thanks for responding so far - sure helps clarify things!

Keynote won't stop saving??

I'm in the process of making a large presentation for my class, but I think I accidentely pressed a couple buttons in sequence or something. My keynote won't stop saving every 2 seconds and it is making my keynote unresponsive and taking me a while to just type out a sentence. It saves everytime I click on something and every time I type like 3 letters. I have quit out of it and come back into it for it only to do the same thing. How do I fix this??

PLEASE, help us! It's the same for me!
I'm making a large medical presentation with my MacBookPro i7/8GB/500GB mid 2010 Lion last version, iWork uptodate and... my keynote won't stop SAVING AND SAVING every time I press a key!
Keynote is the most important piece of software for PROFESSIONAL presentations, a flag for Apple vs. PCs, is it possible a bug like this...
...Auto Save
Work without worry (!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Forget about manual saving and forge ahead with confidence. Auto Save in OS X Lion automatically saves your work, while you work, during pauses and every five minutes. And Lion saves changes in the background so you're never interrupted with progress bars.

Keynote won't install from CD

I just can't figured it out why after i install iwork '09 out from CD, only keynote won't open. I did the procedure 3 times already on my macbook pro lion... installation and software upgrades and such... but still only keynote won't install properly. Instead, it requires serial number to think it should not because it comes from the CD. The rest like pages and numbers are both working properly. I need help... i don't know what to do anymore.

sorry, maybe I did not explain myself
the downloadable version was made available two years AFTER the disk you're trying to install, and it was an add-on to an existing installation of ilife 08
so you won't be able to partially install ilife 06 because your system is not supported, and you won't be able to easily download the more recent version because it was pulled by apple
so your only chance is find someone willing to upload the app (160MB) somewhere, or look for it on a p2p website (which borders the illegal, so you might not want to ask about it here)

Pages, Numbers and Keynote won't update. App Store says update was applied, but when I open Pages/Number/Keynote, the version of it shows the old version.

Pages, Numbers and Keynote won't update. App Store says update was applied, but when I open Pages/Number/Keynote, the version of it shows the old version.

When you updated, the old version remained on your Mac, in a subfolder within Applications named iWork '09. Any icons you have on the Dock still point to that old version. Try opening the Numbers that is located in your main Applications folder, not the one in the subfolder. If that works, then drag that one to the Dock.

Web page create with Keynote won't display

I have exported my Keynote file as a web page, uploaded to a server but when go to the web site, I get the message "slide couldn't be displayed." I am using Keynote 5.1. Any suggestions as to how to fix this?

I am having the exact same issue. It all works spledidly locally, but the minute I upload to my web host I encounter the same message.
Did you ever manage to figure this out?
BTW. I only use Safari, so the browser is not the issue.
Thanks.

Firefox doesn't have any built-in ability to display PowerPoint files in a tab. You can check how Firefox is set to handle PowerPoint files in the Options dialog:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Applications
''This list may take a while to load.'' In the search box above the list, you can type pow and let Firefox filter it down. Usually these would say "Always Ask" but you might have customized them to "Use Microsoft Powerpoint".
There are some sites that have a Flash-based PowerPoint viewer, such as OneDrive/SkyDrive and SlideShare. Maybe Gmail has one now, too, I haven't checked. But all such sites also should have a separate download button, either before showing their viewer or as part of the viewer. If there are particular sites where you notice this problem, maybe someone know how to bypass the viewer on that site and go straight to a download.

I'm trying to update to keynote 09. I've done this but the old keynote icon is still on my dock? and keynote won't open?

I've gone into iTunes. Upgraded my keynote to 09 (ie with the blue icon instead of the brown wooden one) but still the old (brown wooden) icon appears on my dock. When i click on keynotes they won't open? I've got keynote already on my other mac and its paid for so shouldn't i be able to use on my second mac? (I use two macbook airs each day for work. switching between them.

The previous version of Keynote is not deleted when you install the new version. There are serious problems using the new version of Keynote (which is version 6 not 09 as you stated). Best advice until Apple sort these problems is to use version 5 to open existing files and only use version 6 for new presentations.

Dual Display - help with Cinema Display for MacBook Pro where MB won't detect displays.

I just got a Cinema Display (a1081 20") ("CD") off eBay to use as a dual screen with my Macbook Pro OS X 10.6.8 ("MB"). However, I can't get MB to recognize CD! I've tried power cycling both the MB and the CD with and without USB cord connected. MB won't recognize CD display in any situation. However, it is recognized in some capacity although I can't use dual display because the CD power button triggers MB to ask me if I want to restart, shutdown, or cancel.
Any help is appreciated!!

Have you tried smc and pram resets?
Try Detect Displays in the Displays preference pane.
Does the Displays preference pane Arrangement show two screens? If so do click gather windows and check the resolution setting of the new screen.

Xfce won't detect display after unplugging

Ok, I have 2 monitors at home, unfortunately 1 of the ports in my graphic card won't work.
For certain reasons, I need to use 1st display during the day, and the 2nd during the night.
But, if I just unplugg the cable from 1st display and plug it in the 2nd the screen just won't come on.
When this happens, I can access to tty2 and tty2 detects screen and displays image, restarting lightdm also displays image in display (but somehow this breaks pulseaudio leaving me with no sound :S ).
Any idea?
PS. Of course I have selected the option "Detect new screenwhen plugged" on Xfce Display Settings.
Thank you

NO
This is what want:
1. Startup computer using Monitor A
2. Unplugg HDMI cord from Monitor A and connect it in Monitor B
(After this, Monitor B goes black on tty1 (used by lightdm) and I can only have tty2, tty3 and all others available)
3. Keep picture in Monitor B when plugged, without the need of restarting lightdm or the whole computer
Until now the only workaround is this:
1. Startuo using Monitor A
2. Suspend system
3. Plugg Monitor B
4. Resume system
THanks and sorry for not being that active

My macbook air won't detect display when trying to hook up with mini port and hdmi cable

The screen turns blue and all it just won't show arrangments and then mirro display.. help!

Try it, a complete power off/on!
MacBook Air using Sony TV as monitor via Thunderbolt and HDMI.
I could not get my 32inch Sony Bravia to "see" my 2102 MBAir using the Thunderbolt-to-HDMI adapter and a known good HDMI cable.
So I took my MBAir to my local Apple Store,Encinitas California, along with the TBolt Adapter and a known good HDMI cable.
The salesman tried the same connection from my Air to their 40inch Sony Bravia using my cables. It worked perfectly. The Apple salesman advised I return home and make the same connections to my 32" Sony, turning it off and back on. I realized I had already done that test several times. Then, it occurred to me that _Sony "off "using the Sony Remote Control is not the same as _Sony off completely. So I returned home and disconnected the AC power from the 32" for over 30 seconds then turned it back on with the Air &Sony connected via the Thunderbolt-to-HDMI connection and with the MBA turned on. The image came right up on screen and is still working. So, is this yet another case of " when in doubt re-boot" ?
