Project my Keynote/PowerPoint presentation wirelessly

I would like to project my presentation to a large screen or large screen TV wirelessly using my mini iPad. What sort of accessories and method I can accomplish this task? Thanks!

The iPad and Apple TV can communicate because they are connect to the same Wi-Fi.
A router is needed for them to talk to each other.
Internet is only required if you need to access iTune Store, Youtube, NBA, Podcast, Radio, iCloud Photos, WSJ Live etc.

Hi Yogang,
Unles I am mistaken, the USB to AV cables are only used to deliver an AV signal to the Mac (such as a DVD player, etc) to enable the AV to be recorded.
If you want to transmit powerpoint to a projector, you need to use the displayport on the Mac. Once this is connected, the mac will automatically pick it up and set the projector up as a second monitor.
Depending on the model Mac you are using and also the avaliable connections you have to the projector, will tell you the type on connector you need.
These are DP to VGA, DP to DVI, DP to HDMI. The last one, if you have a mdern Mac, should also carry the audio signal to the projector.

IPhoto Album to Keynote/Powerpoint Presentation

Is there any automated way of sending an album of iPhoto pictures to a Keynote or Powerpoint presentation with each picture as their own slide?
Thanks

Hello Someone!
I know of two ways to kind of "batch" automate your process:
1. Your keynote presentation that should hold your slides is open. The keynote window must show the thumbnails of your slides on the left side (Presumably, there is only one there yet - the automatically created first slide - to be seen.) If they are not shown, go to the view menu and select "Navigator". Select all the pictures you want to have in your keynote file in iPhoto and drag them over into the thumbnail view on the left side (not onto the slide!). That should create one slide for each photo.
As for PowerPoint, I don't know whether the things said above work - they should, though. But with powerpoint you can use the application to build a slide show from files in a folder. Well, for this you just have to create a folder of your images from iPhoto, easy enough...
2. If you are on OS X Tiger you can run the "automator" application to do this. Open keynote and select a theme so a file to hold your slides is open. Open automator and create a workflow. Select iPhoto on the library pane in automator and drag the action "Ask for photos" to the right pane. Make sure "Allow multiple selection" is checked.
Select keynote in the library pane and drag the action "Create Image slide" under(!) "Ask for photos". They should be connected by "Files/Folders". Set the options according to your likings, then run the script. Automator will let you choose images from the iPhoto library. Just make sure you really select the images (so they have the blue selection rectangle around) in this sheet (lower section of the sheet), not only the iPhotoAlbum or so. Click the arrow to run the workflow. Save it for reuse...
There are powerpoint actions on apples website for download, they should provide you with the same possibilities for this application, but I did not try these.

Can I wirelessly project powerpoint presentation to projector without HDMI input?

Can I wirelessly project a powerpoint presentation to a projector that does not have HDMI in?

Only if it is AirPlay compatible.

I am trying to connect a Macbook Pro to a projector for a Powerpoint presentation. When I use a VGA cable, the color of the projected images are not good. When I use a USB cable, the projected image includes the presenter notes on my computer screen?

To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
and select the Library that you moved. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
Your first option didn't work because you imported one Library to another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.
Your second option didn't work because you simply referenced her library on the old machine.

I want to control a PowerPoint presentation on my iPad remotely from my iPhone. Is there an app that allows me to wirelessly control my iPad from my iPhone?

I want to control a PowerPoint presentation on my iPad remotely from my iPhone. Is there an app that allows me to wirelessly control my iPad from my iPhone?

Yes.
The app is called Keynote Remote and is available for both iPhone and iPad from the App Store. This app can also run Keynote presentations from your Mac from either your iPad or iPhone.
Both your iPad and iPhone need to be on the same WiFi Network. With your iPad Keynote file loaded, go to:
iPad > Keynote > Tool Menu (wrench) > Advanced > Remote and turnon "Enable Remotes"
on your iPhone set up the link:
Keynote Remote > Settings > New Keynote Link and follow instructions - you will be given a set of numbers, enter those numbers on the iPad and you are all set.
Good Luck

Can I insert a powerpoint presentation in Keynote

Can I insert a small powerpoint presentation on one of my keynote slides - I'd like to be able to keep the keynote presentation running, but click and bring up the powerpoint slides and when done - I need it to go back to my keynote slides.
When I try to insert - the .pptx files are greyed out.

Open the PowerPoint file in Keynote: File >Open
copy and paste these slides into the other presentation at the place you want them to show

I'm new to keynotes and I have a lot of powerpoint presentations I'm trying to salvage. I can't get the slides to change on a click plus I can't find the way to change the "transition" time changes within each slide. Where can I find the answer

I'm new to keynotes and I'm trying to salvage several powerpoint presentations. I can't control my slide presentations by clicking to change slides and/or for transitions within the slides. I'm sure there's an answer but I can't find it. Can someone please give me directions.

Show the Inspector; view > show inspector
to run a presentation using manual control:
Inspector > Document: set Presentation to Normal
many transitions set in PowerPoint are not available in Keynote; to set the transition options:
Inspector > Slide > Transition
select the effect you want and either choose auto or manual control

Morning AndreD86,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
These articles explain exactly what is backed up by using their method.
iTunes: About iOS backups
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4946
and
iCloud: Backup and restore overview
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4859
Also we want to double-click the Home button and swipe the Task Bar to the right.
Then make sure the button on the far left of Task Bar is not muted.
Best of luck,
Mario

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.

When I open a powerpoint presentation in Keynote I only see the first 8 slides

When I open a powerpoint presentation in Keynote I only see the first 8 slides. Any ideas?

Curious.
If I had this problem I would try the followinng:
open the PPt file in PowerPoint (or Open Office for Mac, which is a free and reliable option to MS Office) save it as a PPt file and open in Keynote
open in PPt or Open Office, save all the slides as individual TIFF files and bring those into Keynote ( builds would not work on individual text or objects on a slide but at least you have the content)
Open Office

Changing template background from a powerpoint presentation in Keynote?

Is simple to change the background template from a powerpoint presentation in Keynote?
In powerpoint it is very simple but I need to know if it is also in keynote and how, of course without erase the data from the presentation. I have many powerpoint, excel and word files from MsOffice 07' and I need to know if I can change to iWorks without problems and if it will take me to much time to do it.

It could not be simpler; click on Themes in the tool bar and select a theme:

Do all animations and features of Keynote save as PowerPoint Presentations and are all of the animations and features then useable on a PC in the .ppt format, will it work properly?

I want to buy a Macbook Pro, but i need to know the scale of compatability between my Microsoft products and my soon to be apple products, proffessional presentations are vital for what i want, therefore compatability if key if i am to purchase a Mac. Thank you.

Not all of the animations and features in Keynote will transition into Powerpoint. Most of the basic ones do - but not the advanced. I had this issue when I first switched over to Mac, so to overcome this, I do two things:
I figured out which animations and transitions work in both Keynote and Powerpoint and used them. It's kind of a pain when I can't use the awesome Keynote animations, however, Keynote is still much easier and intuitive to work in than Powerpoint.
I sometimes export my Keynote presentations to a Quicktime movie (.mov). Apple makes it very simple to export to this format; which can then be accessed on both a Mac and PC and all of the transitions and effects remain as they are in Keynote.
I hope that helps.

How do I convert a powerpoint presentation to Keynote?

I am new to Mac and have a lot of Powerpoint presentations. I would like to try to convert some to Keynote. Can anyone give me hints on how to do this without spending a huge amount of time. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the discussions, Vickt*.
Keynote can open most older PowerPoint files with a few issues that remain (like fonts and some features that only PowerPoint has). The best thing to do is just open a few to see what your problems are going to be. After going through those few, you'll have a better idea of what issues you're going to see down the line.
There's no Batch way to do this, though, you have to open each one in Keynote then Save it to create a .key file.
