Portrait power point not formatting correctly in keynote

I am moving from a pc to a mac. Most of the work that I would have created in pages on a mac was created in power point. From what I can tell is that keynote doesn't handle portrait mode. I really don't want to spend hours reformatting all my files. Is there an easy solution to this issue?
Thanks!

Most of the work that I would have created in pages on a mac was created in power point.
Pages is a text creation tool from Apple used to create printed paper output, not for creating presentations.
PowerPoint is a presentation tool from Microsoft used to create screen based presentations.
Keynote is a presentation tool from Apple, used to create screen based presentations.
From what I can tell is that keynote doesn't handle portrait mode.
Keynote can present presentations in either; portrait, view or square formats;   Inspector > Document >Document > Slide Size > Custom Slide Size
I really don't want to spend hours reformatting all my files
If you have existing PowerPoint files they can be imported into Keynote and saved as Keynote files in whatever size format they were created in.

  • RTF not formating correctly

    Hi everyone
    I imported an RTF document and inlcuded it in my splash screen. I have some lingo that updated the ducumented when the EXE is ran:
    on beginsprite me
         member("Lawyer_bio").fileName = the moviePath & "Lawyer_bio.rtf"
         member("Lawyer_bio").rtf = member("Lawyer_bio").rtf
    end
    For some reason, the bullet points on my document are not formating correctly. It works fine with some RTF documents, but with other it does the following:
    See how only the first bullet if formating correctly, why are the other ones not? Like I said, it doesn't happen with all the RTF documents.
    thank you for your time,
    Rafa.

    Dear Rafa,
    Please check to see that the sprite cast you were transferring into was not a accidentally a “field” cast member.  Text and field objects have different properties and methods.  Both sprites should be Text cast members. (I can visualize the problem you describe occurring if you were transferring into a Field Cast member from a Text cast member.)
    Curious about how dynamic your application will be, Rafa. 
    I did not experience the same problem when attempting to duplicate the scenario you described.
    Are the formatting errors introduced when you import the file?  Or were they already there in the RTF document before you imported? 
    The way I would troubleshoot is to ‘put char()’ in the message window, from just before to just after the bullet, comparing that with another Text cast member that has properly formatted text, and discover the anomaly.  It should then be easy to write a Lingo handler to detect anomalies and correct the formatting.
    Here is the syntax for text cast members, illustrated.  By creating two text cast members (“A” eh) on the stage, then go to the message window and try:
    set T1 = the member of sprite 1
    set T2 = the member of sprite 2
    et T1.text ="Hello World"
    set T2.text = T1.text
    put char 1 of T2.text
    put the text of member 1 of castlib 1  -- or use the name of the cast member …
    likewise:
    put char 2 of (member 2 of castlib 1).text
    TEXT cast members are much improved over earlier versions of Director.  You used to only be able to manipulate FIELD cast members with Lingo, and the limit to a field cast member was 32kb.
    Adobe keeps on improving Director.  I wonder if Adobe will revive the Shockwave player, or build Director Shockwave into Acrobat.
    I’ve been out of the game for a long time.  I’ve got a lot of catching up to do.

  • File not formatted correctly error

    Dear All,
    when am trying to import a contract file as excel sheet, not CVs file, i get the error ( File not formatted correctly ). any advice?

    the issue with date formatting would be corrected in Excel. When an export file that includes dates is opened in Excel, they get reformatted by the Excel program. In my experience, I have had to reformat those cells in Excel to the YYYY-MM-DD format and save the Excel file before I could import again into CM. But, if you are just exporting and then importing without opening the file in Excel, then the dates are not the problem. What are you exporting from CM? Are you trying to import into a different project or database than you exported from?

  • Apple iBooks not formatted correct

    i posted this to the wrong discussion gourp
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/25408887?ac_cid=op123456#25408887
    The problem is my wife purchased some iBooks fromt the Apple iBook store and they are not formatted correct for the her iPad2. What is strange is they can be read on the MacBook Pro using 10.9.2 and the iPad was recently updated. 
    He books on the iPad go away and it takes a reboot to get them back. All of the older iBooks work.... the new ones are formattted wrong

    >My wife has an appointment at the Genius Bar this afternoon to discuss the nonstandard format being sold by iBooks.
    B-I-N-G-O   The Genius Bar person FIXED it for her!
    The problme was the Apple server sent her bad files.  The fix was to delete them from the iPad2 and download them again. She was not charged for the 2nd download  the three books all work perfect now.
    What willl be interesting is she has the good copies on the iPad and the bad copies on hte MacBook Pro.  Will synce move the good books iTunes on the MBP or will it sync the bad books back tto the iPad. Stay tuned

    Hello colinOxford0917,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with iBooks on your devices. If you continue to have issues opening the book in question on your iPad Air due to a format error, you may want to try deleting the copy on your iPad, then redownloading it directly to your iPad from the iBook Store. You may find the information and steps outlined in the following articles helpful:

  • Cfdocument format = PDF - does not format correctly

    Greetings
    I am simply attempting to print invoices from a query that displays correctly on the cfm result page, but using cfdocument to render a PDF version (to mail out) does not format even remotely close to the cfm page.
    I tried every conceivable method I know of, including:
    Formating the cfm page (via CSS and hardcoded table width) to be 612 px X 792 px (8.5 X 11 in), and here is the cfdocument code:
    <cfdocument
    format="pdf" 
    pageType="custom"
    unit="in"
    marginbottom="0.75"
    marginleft="0.75"
    marginright="0.75"
    margintop="0.75"
    pageHeight="11"
    pageWidth="8.5"
    mimeType="text/html"
    fontembed="yes"
    orientation="portrait">
    <style type="text/css">
    @import url(css/moorings.css);
    </style>
    <html> blah blah </html>
    </cfdocument>
    The rendered PDF file is 4.5 X 5 in- (both in IE and Firefox) What am I missing here?
    CF 9
    Thanks in advance, as always.

    Well, in answer to my own question, the solution is in the CSS, using tables and CSS:
    set table height and width to 100%
    set font-size:100%;
    set header font, bolder, larger :125%;, etc.
    Also using the cfdocument attributes as shown in the posting
    The PDF now prints correctly, margins are perfect.
    Now I have to figure out how to loop through the 900+ records, convert each to a PDF and print one copy of each-
    Anyone?
    Thanks....

  • Graphics in Power Point not being converted to PDF

    Hi guys
    I'm trying to convert a Power Point 2010 document to a PDF using Acrobat XI Pro
    below is what happens before and after the conversion....
    ....the graphics disappear.
    In the Power Point document editing is enabled.
    In Power Point i can only select the text and not the orange graphic.
    When using "combined files" within Acrobat or the Acrobat tab within Power Point 2010 I get the same results.
    Does anyone know a fix?
    Thanks
    Jamie

    Make sure you have applied all updated to Acrobat XI (Help->check for updates). If you can still reproduce the problem, would it be possible for you to share a file that demonstrates the problem?

  • Need to play Power Point Presentation with Audio in Keynote

    My wife and I have lots of Power Point slide shows with audio from the days when we were windows users. We have downloaded a trial version of iWork 09 and would like to know how we can play these .pps files that contain audio in Keynote.
    We appreciate any help that anyone could provide as we would much prefer to use Keynote/iWork than MS Office.

    That's interesting about NeoOffice. I keep a copy of it up to date but don't use it too often.
    This may be too involved for the OP but I would play the file in NeoOffice and record the audio with WIreTap or similar, export it as an MP3 file and then import it into Keynote.
    WIreTap can have its input source set to Mac Audio so that it will record from any application that is capable of producing sound.

  • On windows 7 my itunes 11 opening screen is not formatted correctly. How do I formatt itunes 11 welcome screen?

    on windows 7 my itunes 11 opening page is not formatted and looks different than itunes 11 ads  and formatting. How do I get to the itunes 11 welcome screen?

    I have not seen your error in either my IE or my chrome. I do note that you are using a "strict" Document Type Declaration.
    You might try a transitional DTD, which should be more forgiving than the strict:
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
    Other than that, I don't see anything particular (because I don't see the error, either) that would cause the menu to drop vertically instead of horizontally.

  • Trailers not formatting correctly in Safari

    ITunes Movie Trailers are not playing correctly in Safari. On selecting full screen using the expand arrows in the video control panel in Safari 5.1.10 & OS 10.6.8; Trailer will expand to full screen and the screen will go black, but on selecting play there is no image or sound exept a faded outline of the edge of the Trailer frame that runs off screen and does not play. Trailer plays in defualt size.

    Try emptying the Safari cache. Command + Option + E. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that didn't help, might be an incompatible extension.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

  • Why does text not format correctly when pasting into outlook?

    I am attaching a Screenshot of an email to better help you understand.
    Basically, I receive an email from customer.  I draft an email to respond and send to my boss to get approval.  Once my boss approves, I go back to my original sent email and copy and paste into a reply to the original email from my customer but for some reason in Outlook for Mac it doesn't format correctly.  It always pastes the text in a sorda column if you will, as though word wrap isnt working.  When I send it, it looks even worse to the customer, especially if they are looking at it on a phone.  I have looked high and low and cant find an answer.  Thanks in advance!
    FYI I copied and pasted the text into "Pages" to show exactly what it is doing.

    Try the Microsoft forums.

  • Videos not formatted correctly in Windows

    I have several videos on 2 different pages in iWeb. They display fine on either Safari or FireFox on the Mac, but do not display correctly on FireFox or IE on Windows. The placement of the videos is scattered all over the page. The videos do play correctly, however.
    I would really appreciate help in resolving this problem so Windows users can also see the videos the way they were meant to be displayed.
    Thanks -

    I had a similar problem with the video frames "smearing" on IE when scrolling the page.

  • IOS Numbers - Korean Hangul text not formatting correctly in cells

    For example, I'm trying to enter the Korean word ‘가면' into cells but the text is not grouping correctly. The final letter 'ㄴ' is not associated with the related syllable. Instead of '가면', I get '가며ㄴ'.
    I don't get this problem in others apps, only Numbers. I can copy and paste the correct form '가면' from other apps, but obviously this is a bit laborious.
    Any idea how I can fix this please?    (I've got 2 keyboards enabled, Korean and english). Thanks.

    This may be a bug that only Apple can fix.  You can report it via

    You might try changing Korean fonts.

  • Captivate 7 - edit with Power Point not working

    I am working with Power point slides in my captivate 7 project. When I try to edit the slide using power point I can delete words off the slide, but I can't add any words or letters. It is like my keyboard won't work. Any reasons why?

    Hi there,
    Greetings from Adobe.
    Which Operating System do you have?
    Make sure that Captivate 7 is updated to 7.0.1.237 (Help> About Adobe Captivate),  is Captivate 7 32 bit or 64 bit?
    Also tell the version of Power Point?
    Create a blank new pptx in Power Point and create a new project in Captivate from that new presentation and edit it's slide in Power Point, just to test whether that issue reoccurs on another project.
    Regards,
