Moving Animated Images from Powerpoint to keynote

Hi
I'm just getting into using Keynote as i have just starting lecturing
All the lecture files i have been given are Powerpoint Presentations
I have converted all of them to Keynote but i am having a bit of a problem with one
It has an image which when you play back the slideshow in powerpoint it is animated
The image is not a photo image I think it is a Flash image but i'm not sure as i cannot track down the maker of the PP file & i cannot find any info about it as the only place i can see it is in the PP presentation & that doesn't give too much away either
I'm probably not giving you enough info about it but its as much as i can come up with myself
The question is as you have probably worked out is how can i take the image from the PP presentation & put it into the Keynote Presentation with the animation working in Keynote
Thanks for your time

Great Question! The answer is not as great. From my previous work the only way I have gotten good results is to open powerpoint and keynote then copy/paste each slide over and build the transitions I want into the presentation. This has been the only way to get the results I wanted.
Hope this helps.

  • Conversions from PowerPoint to Keynote... again

    Sorry if this is an FAQ, but there is no FAQ file available yet, and I can't find an answer by wading through thousands of posts.
    I have a lot of PPT files which are provided by the textbook publisher for a course I am teaching, and I would like to use this material. However, I use Keynote exclusively for my own lectures, and want to convert the PPT files so I can customize them. I am running Keynote 2.0.2 and PowerPoint 11.2.4 on OS X 10.4.7.
    When I open these files in Keynote, most of the bulleted text and some of the simple graphics come across OK, but unfortunately, a lot of the more complicated graphics don't. When the original slide has a lot of lines, rectangles, etc., the conversion seems to change all of the graphics into a single uneditable bitmap of some sort. I have experimented with cutting and pasting indivisual graphical objects from PowerPoint to Keynote, and even on simple things like a line segment at a 45 degree angle, the object gets converted to a picture, and worse yet, the line width is changed from the original 2 points to 6 points!
    None of these files are complicated or "challenging". There are no transitions, animations, videos, audio, or any of the things that seem to plague a lot of users. I am just talking about text and simple line drawings (schematics, etc.) I suspect that there are tricks or procedures that I am not doing right, but don't know where to look for help other than this forum. Can anyone give me an assist?
    Thanks

    Most of this stuff appears to be just simple line art primitives. What begins as a line in the ppt file ends up being a .pict file dropped in to the Keynote file. It isn't consistent either; a lot of objects come across OK (rectangles, horizontal and vertical lines, for instance). Angled lines and more complicated shapes seem to be converted to .pict drop-ins.
    I am continuing to explore this; I'll post any significant discoveries.
    Thanks

  • I'm changing from powerpoint to Keynote.  In powerpoint you can change slides by typing in the slide number and hitting enter.  I want to do the same in keynote without the slide switcher popping up at the top.  Possible?

    Wow, I may be losing my mind, you're right.  I guess I was doing what you said out of old habits and not even realizing it.  Much appreciated.

  • Unable to paste image from Powerpoint to Adobe X Standard

    Good Morning all,
    We currently have Adobe X Standard (10.1.3) installed on a Windows 2008 R2 environment shared between a dozen users. One user is attempting to copy an image from Powerpoint 2010 into a PDF. Trying the standard ctrl+c & ctrl+v commands doesn't work. If we go to edit in Adobe the paste option is greyed out. So we tried the snipping tool to see if this works and it does, but it's very hit & miss.
    I thought that it may have something to do with the Standard version on Win 2008 so i installed it also on a stand-alone Win 7 machine. The copy & paste works absolutely fine.
    Has anyone come across this before with Adobe installed on Win 2008 R2?
    Many thanks
    Dan

    Thanks for the response David.
    I've submitted a bug request. It is strange in regards to replicating the issue but your response is appreciated
    I did contact Adobe Technical Support via the online chat and they suggested that the copy & paste function is not available under the Standard version. I did some more testing as per my previous replies and still the same thing happened.
    As a workaround we managed to use the comment > stamp > copy stamp from clipboard function. This works well and in a similar way to copy & paste.

  • Since update to 10.6.8 can't export images from powerpoint and also other programs

    Ever since I updated my software to 10.6.8 I can't export images from Powerpoint or from a graphing software GraphPad Prism.  It's really frustrating.  I had no problems at all until this update. Is there any way to revert my version to the old OS 10.6?
    I can't work when I can't put images into illustrator!
    Thanks, AOH

    I just contacted Final Draft and they helped me with it. If you have FD and are going to upgrade an OS, Deactivate Final Draft first then re-activate it once the new OS is installed.

  • When opening a word doc in pages i am loosing the graphic images from powerpoint that were embedded in the word doc

    When opening a word doc in pages i am loosing the graphic images from powerpoint that were embedded in the word doc

    Are the images placed in a table? Many Word user have the habit of doing that. Tables are not handles the same way in Word and Pages so they get "hidden" in Pages. One way to find this out is to change the size of the paper of the document. You do that in the Page setup in the file menu. Create a document that is much longer that the default one and see if you images will pp up.

  • How to copy and paste images from Internet to keynote on iPad?

    I want to make presentations on the go using Internet images and keynote. How can I get images from websites copied into my photo album, as that seems to be the only way you can add a image in keynote. Is there legal problems involved in it? Because I can do it no problem using my desktop etc.
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Click and drag is your friend!
    This thread probably belongs in the safari area, but anyway:
    If you click and hold, there should be a cursor that appears with a file. Then, simply drag it to your desktop where the file will appear.
    Or:
    Right-click (control-click) the picture and there should be a 'save image' or 'save image as' option. Select that, then save it!
    Afterwards, simply find the file in your screen saver options in system preferences, and then select it.
    Good Luck!

  • Moving Lightroom images from  hardrive to external drives

    How do I successfully move all of my existing Lightroom images from my hardrive to my external drives? I am so nervous to do this but have no more storage on my hardrive. thanks!

    It also helps to reorganize things under a few top-level folders if they aren’t already, before moving them, so there are less reconnections to make after the move.
    There have been some problems in the past for some people who use NAS or network drives for photos where a move loses files, so if that is what your external location is, then I’d suggest that you COPY the files and then rename the source folder(s) and then reconnect the photos in their new location and make sure everything is ok before deleting the photos off the original location on the internal drive.

  • Problem In moving 1 image from 1 panel to next and maintain size of original image?

    Why is it when i drag one image from the bottom panel over to another picture(solid color) i will only get 50% of the image and not the full image. Same thing when i copy and paste that image over the gray solid colored image also i will get only 50% of the image.  The original image of the cat(full view) is about 24.79%  and picture is 11.733 x 15.644 in size.  the other image (solid color) is at 43.63%  or 6.667 x 8.889". size is in inches. Do i have to resize the images and if so how as i am a stupie in this matter. The images are aligned side by side on the main panel or display.I am trying to place the cat over the gray background image  and with a layer mask delete the present baackground of the cat to uncover the gray of the bottom layer.  Thanks!!

    Probably the resolution of each image has a different value. You can check this in Image>resize>image size. The resolution is expressed in px/in.
    If you are attempting to place the cat on a plain gray background, try this:
    Set your foreground color chip  (lower left) to the shade of gray desired
    Open the picture with the cat
    Using one of the selection tools (e.g. Selection brush, lasso), select the cat
    Place the cat on a separate layer (Layer>new>layer via copy)
    Place a blank layer between the background layer and the cat layer
    Fill the blank layer with gray ( Edit>fill layer>foreground color)
    Use the move tool to position the cat, and resize, if necessary, with the corner handles of the bounding box.

  • Moving scanned images from documents.........

    i scanned approx 50 images from my canon pixma mg5420. they are now located in both documents and 'my image garden' (canon software). is it possible to transfer the images from my documents to iPhoto, and, if it is possible, do you have to do one at a time or can i move the whole group all at once? all this from a mac newbie.

    You can select them all and drag them into iPhoto. I can't remember if it makes an event automatically.

  • Images not appearing on slide when converted from Powerpoint to Keynote

    My Pastor's Powerpoint slides converted nicely to Keynote except 2 pictures at the top of one slide. He saved just that slide as a separate ppt file and I could see the images in the thumbnail, but they're gone when it's opened in Keynote. I'm thinking a layering problem, but I'm new to iMac and Keynote. Any suggestions?

    Hi Lilybiri,
    I have (again) requested my IT dept to take a look at what is going on.
    If they cannt/wont help, then I may well take up Rick's very kind offer.
    The more I think about it, the more I believe my problem(s) stem from having to link up to Adobe when working on-line.
    It takes about 30 seconds from the time I open the initial Captivate start screen (attached) before any of the links become active.
    That strikes me as way too long and might be the cause of the problem.
    Any idea if this "link to Adobe" can to turned off? What do I need the link for anyway...day to day?

  • Transfering presentations from powerpoint to Keynote

    Hi
    I have transfered a powerpoint presentation onto Keynote and have two problems.
    1. When i saved the presenation in Keynote the text does not appear on the presentaion as the texts that are on the presenation are not part of Apples fonts. The texts are Unviers LT Std, Baskerville MT Std and Baskerville MT Std semi bold. How can I import the fonts onto the ipad (which are saved on my works W drive)?? Or can I buy them?
    2. When I save the presenation in i-books as a PDF the images of the presenations do not come up!! Does anybody know why?
    Please let me know if you have any ideas.
    Thanks
    Rose

    These are the fonts that Keynote on the iPad supports:
    iPad supports over 40 fonts and font families which can be used with iWork for iPad apps. When importing a presentation that uses a font not available on iPad, iWork attempts to replace an unsupported font with one that is a close match. If a close match is not found, the Helvetica font will be used instead. After the import process, fonts that were replaced are listed for review by the user.
    Fonts available on the iPad include:
    American Typewriter
    AppleGothic
    Arial
    Baskerville
    Bodoni 72
    Bradley Hand
    Chalkduster
    Cochin
    Copperplate
    Courier
    Courier New
    Didot
    Futura
    Geeza Pro
    Georgia
    Gill Sans
    Heiti J
    Helvetica
    Hoefler Text
    Marker Felt
    Optima
    Palatino

    Thonburi

    Sorry to say you can't add fonts to the iPad. The Baskerville font that you are using may not be supported. Even tho it is in the supported list above.
    For your second question. Are you making the keynote PDF on the iPad or on a computer? What file format are the images? I just made a two slide keynote with images on the iPad. I converted the keynote to a PDF and emailed to myself. When I open the email, I picked iBooks to open the PDF. All image were there in iBooks.

  • Moving Image from one Review to Another?

    I attempted to upload an image (open in Photoshop) to a specific review. However, I could not see the desired review in the Photoshop CS Review panel. Out of frustration - after attempting to "find" the desired review for several minutes - I uploaded the image to another review and then went online, using Safari, to Acrobat.com.
    There is no visible means of moving an image from one review to another. There is a way of dragging one review (with all sub-images) to another location. But I can't see a way of moving a sub-image from one review to another review.
    IF there is some "magic" that someone knows I would sure appreciate some education.

    This works quite well for a single image review. I've moved them from one workspace to another. The issue is when a review has multiple images and you want to take only one of them from that review and move it to another review in another workspace; I can't seem to get that to work at all.
    When I open a review and navigate to the desired image, then click in the lower left corner and select a new workspace to move the image to, it moves the entire review - not the single image - to the new workspace.
    I guess I could delete the "part" from the workspace it currently exists in and then create it as a stand alone review, but then I won't be able to imbed it into another review as I want to do.
    The source frustration here is that I can't get CS Review in CSPS5 to navigate to the desired workspace/review. I get "ALL REVIEWS" displayed but not the workspaces... Any ideas on how to display workspaces instead of reviews?
