Recomendations on type of projector for Keynote

I'm looking for the excellent high resolution projector for my Keynote presentations shown from my PB, 1Ghz. Any suggestions?

A lot of the DLP projectors have hybrid DVI inputs on them, where the DVI connector accepts DVI, VGA or composite video. I think they do it to save space; our Dell projectors are like that.
The DLP projectors are impressive as they give you amazing brightness, micro-portability (the InFocus LP-120 will fit easily into a coat pocket!) and low cost. The trade-off is that it all comes at the expense of color saturation. Quite frequently you will find that you get better color with the larger LCD projectors. I'm using both Epson EMP-830 and InFocus LP-820 projectors. The InFocus has DVI and VGA inputs while the Epson is just VGA. Both are nice LCD projectors at around $3500 (I use these for classroom installations) but I tend to use the Epson in locations where I don't need video. The Epson won't automatically search for a signal, and the Epson won't work with my $60 scalers for video. Both projectors support Ethernet network control (it may be optional on the Epson, standard on the InFocus), and both can be configured for auto-power-on-when-plugged-in, though only the Epson has a cooling fan that will continue to run after you unplug the projector.
Oh, and if you are looking at used projectors and anyone shows you a Proxima DP-6150 or DP-6155, I suggest you run like ****.

  • Connecting Macbook Air 2011 to Epson projector for Keynote

    Hi,
    I'm trying to connect my Macbook Air 2011 to a brand new Epson (Powerlite 1760W) projector for Keynote presentations.
    I bought the recommended Monoprice mini cable from the Apple store but I can only plug it into my MBA (small squarish socket), the other end dosen't connect to the projector. It seems the projector wants a VGA cable into it.
    I'm lost. Do I still need the UBS cable between the two? Do I need a USB / VGA cable instead?
    Thanks in advance.

    Alison,
    In looking at the technical specifications (on Epson's site) for this device it would appear that you can make HDMI work - http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/jsp/Product.do?sku=V11H361120&BV_UseBVCookie= yes
    That being said, the HDMI end on the adapter and on the projector are most likely female. So you'll need an HDMI cable (the length will vary on how far the machine is away from the projector) but I suspect a 3 or 6 footer would work just fine. The cable is a male-to-male.

  • Live Type and Motion for keynote

    I want to make an animation that is the same as Steve Jobs Macworld Keynote 2007.
    But, as you know that keynote doesn't support animation path. So if I use motion and Live Type, can I make that kind of animation?
    I'd never used Live Type and Motion.
    Thanks.

    yes, you could make a file that's a 1024x768 sixed movie, where the object moves in from off the side of the screen, follows a path and stops.

  • TS1702 how do i use microsoft word on my ipad? i cannot use flash on it as well neither do i use it with projector for presentation.

    how can i use microsoft office on my ipad? i can't also use flash to copy and transfer documents into it and neither could i use it with a projector for presentation.

    You can't use MS Office on the iPad as Microsoft haven't made app versions of their programs (you can only use apps that are in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app on the iPad), but there are apps that support word, excel and powerpoint documents. The options include Apple's Pages app for Word documents, Numbers for Excel spreadsheets and Keynote for Powerpoint. And from third-parties apps such as Documents To Go ('premium' version) and QuickOffice Pro HD.
    As to how you then get the file to your chosen app will depend upon what the app supports - different apps will have different ways of copying their content to/from a computer e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to your computer's iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc

  • How to define certain document type (BKPF-BLART) for certain movement (101)

    Sometimes ( I think it is becuase of the tcode)  certain purchase 101 movements create a WA type FI document and some other times purchase 101 movements create WE type FI documents. I have seen a table ( accessing from omba transaction) in which for diffenent tcode´s we have either WE or WA. If we always use migo transaction why sometimes in bkpf we have migo_tr, migo_gi, ....;....
    How should I do in order to create always WE FI documents for purchase 101 movements?
    Thanks in advance.

    Check the settings in SPRO-MM-Inventory Management-Number assignemnt-Define number ranges for accounting documents.
    Here you assign accounting document type to tcodes.
    Normally , WA is used in receipts for MB1C/MIGO_GI tcode - for e.g for 561 mvmt type.
    SAP recomends keeping this setting as it is.
    SAP help text copied here for reference:
    Define Number Assignment for Accounting Documents
    In this step, you set the number ranges for the accounting documents which are created when goods movements or inventory differences are posted.
    Accounting documents in inventory management
    For accounting-relevant goods movements, the system creates two different documents:
    material document
    accounting document
    Both the material documents and the accounting documents have their own document numbers. When inventory differences are posted, the system also creates an accounting document for the physical inventory document.
    In this step, you only maintain the number assignment for accounting documents.
    Document types
    Accounting documents are split into document types to allow differentiated document number assignment, which is the basis for distinguishing between the various accounting operations. A number range is assigned to each document type. In a company code, you have to define number intervals for each number range and fiscal year.
    In inventory management, the transaction determines which document type is used.
    Example: Goods receipt for purchase order
    Requirements
    You have already defined the company code.
    Default Settings
    In the standard SAP System, the following document types are predefined for inventory management:
    WA  for goods issues, transfer postings, other goods receipts
    WE  for goods receipts with reference to purchase orders
    WF  for goods receipts with reference to production orders
    WI  for inventory differences
    WL  for goods issues with reference to deliveries (SD)
    WN  for net posting of goods receipts
    PR  for revaluation documents
    Each document type is already assigned a number range. In company code 0001, number intervals are defined for each number range both for the current and the previous fiscal year.
    Number range 49 with the year-related interval 4900000000 to 4999999999 is assigned to the document types for all goods movements, except goods movements with reference to purchase/production orders.
    Document type WE is used for goods receipts with reference to purchase orders and production orders. This document type is assigned number range 50 with the year-related interval 5000000000 to 5099999999.
    Please note that net postings of goods receipts (document type WN) are not active in the standard SAP System. If you want to post goods receipts net, you have to assign document type WN (instead of WE) to the transaction MB01.
    Document type WI is used for posting inventory differences. This document type is assigned the number range 01 with the year-related interval 0100000000 to 019999999999.
    SAP Recommendation
    Activities
    1. Check whether you can use the standard settings.
    2. If not, you have to add new document types to satisfy your requirements:
    a) Define a new document type under Financial accounting document
    b) types.
    c) Assign a number range to the document type.
    d) Under Financial accounting number ranges, define the year-related number intervals for the given number range in your company code. If you do not want to use the year-related number assignment method, enter 9999 in the Year field.
    e) Under Allocate document type to transaction, assign the relevant document type to the transaction codes of inventory management.
    Document type PR (revaluation documents) is already assigned.
    Notes on transport
    You transport number range objects as follows:
    Choose Interval -> Transport in the accounting document Number Range screen.
    All intervals for the selected number range object are deleted in the target system first. After the import, only the intervals you export are present. The number statuses are imported with their values at the time of export.
    Dependent tables are not transported or converted.
    All other activities are linked to the automatic transport.

  • Setting up the correct custom project size size for keynote presentation in FCP 7 or motion?

    Hi...anyone else do this?
    I have been creating and editing films in FCP (not X) for years now and have got into creating the whole presentation for clients awards ceremonies etc. via Keynote on my iPad via HDMI to HD projectors and it looks amazing and is seamless on the night. No need for crappy powerpoint slides and jumping to low res DVD films - its all controlled via my iPad.
    But i want to up the creativity of the presentations - at the moment we import the films as mp4 HD QT files and jpegs of the speakers/nominees/titles screens etc. created in Photoshop and put the whole thing together in Keynote on my iPad. It worked a treat and my clients love it!
    Now i had a thought and did a test and created Motion graphics versions of the speakers titles and nominees screens in Apple Motion - so that they had an animated section at the start with whoosh audio stingers as they are played and not just stills - and then export them as QT files - import to FCP 7 timeline and export to compresser ready to convert to mp4 for Keynote.
    This way i can extend the static part of the screen after the motion graphic part to say 10 mins as i never know how long the speaker will be on stage.
    Then when the speaker moves on the next item i can hit the ipad which will move to the next presentaion screen!
    Q. Now ive been doing these as HD 16:9 screens - but when imported to Keynote I have a white band top and bottom on the screen so i really need to start with a template screen size of 1024 x 768 for Keynote and also keep this size in FCP 7! And also export to Quicktime as the same size.
    When i do static jpegs to import into Keynote i just define the pixel canvas size - 1024 x 768 @ 300dpi in Photoshop and it works fine but im not sure what to do in Motion or PCP as I have always created my films in 16:9 HD widescreen preset!
    Anyone else doing this and got a solution to my problem and can help with custom project sizes in motion and FCP 7!

    1024x768 is 4x3.  2048x1536 is 4x3.  Both of these are current display dimensions for iPads 1-3.
    HD video (1920x1080 or 1280x720) is a 16x9 aspect ratio.
    Try putting a rectangle in a square. Unless you scale the retangle up and lose image on the sides you will not be able to properly fill the entire 4x3 display area. The easy compromise is letterboxing to ensure all of the rectangle is display in the square. The iPad is doing this with very little effort on your part.
    In FC you can create a new sequence and go into the settings and customize it to 1024x768, 2048x1536 or
    just about any other dimension. Even If you create a custom sequence at 1024 or 2048 in FC you will see the same results that the iPad is giving you with much less effort, render and conversion time (presuming your keynote workspace cannot change in dimensions or aspect ratio and you are unwilling to crop your 16x9 aspect ratio video to fill the space.) 

  • Projector for MacBook Pro

    Does anyone have any recommendations for a good projector for a MacBook Pro for projecting a simple Keynote presentation?
    Thanks.

    It works fine with my Macbook Pro.
    Someone may want to know the video playback. It can play video smoothly and clearly.
    It is wonderful that it really plugs the USB cable only for projection (no VGA cable, no mini display port cable, no charger), that is convenient for me to do my presentation.

  • Integrated graphics (9400M) good enough for keynote?

    I'm thinking about buying a new MBP 15 with only the 9400M card. Will this be good enough for keynote presentations (with some heavy graphics and embedded movies etc) hooked to an external projector?
    (I have an 2006 MBP 15 which is dying (those pixelated horizontal lines) but that had discrete graphics Ati x1600 which had some problems with keynote transitions)
    Thanks!

    It should be able to handle Keynote with no problem.
    But since this particular applications performance seems to
    be very important to you, why not just put a Keynote presentation of yours on
    a CD or flash stick and take it into an Apple Store. They will gladly let you try your
    file with their new Macbook Pro's. If there isn't an Apple Store near you then go to an authorized Apple reseller.
    That is the only way to be totally sure.

  • I want to get a pico projector for my iPad 3 but will it work with all apps?

    Hi everyone, I wish to purchase a pico projector for my iPad 3 but I need to know if it will work with third-party apps which plays all kind of video file format
    and not only with the native Video. Anyone has any experience with this? The app I usually use to play my video files is Good Player.

    Take a look at HeadRoom (headphone.com). It's a fabulous resource for all types of headphones, with great guides and useful reviews.

  • Is there an Adobe Ovation equivalent for Keynote

    Hi there Keynote users,
    Anyone know of an Adobe Ovation equivalent for Keynote? We are trying to use Keynote to drive multiple Plasma/LCD displays and need an app for the transition effects capabilities that Ovation offers to PowerPoint but in Keynote.

    Since Ovation take PP slides have you tried just exporting Keynote to PP? Does that work for you?
    Haven't used Ovation myself - looked at the demos and was distinctly underwhelmed, but then I've always thought KN did what I wanted - interesting that Ovation claims to improve type legibility - with KN that comes as standard! Would love a clock timer on screen though.....

  • External Projector for Slide presentation on iPhoto 09

    I need assistance in using an external projector for a slide presentation of my pictures. I can not get the pictures to project. I can do Keynote presentations with no problems with the same settings. thank you for your help...

    Welcome to Apple Discussions Alejandro,
    iPhoto does not support slideshow play back on a secondary display like keynote does. iPhoto always displays the slideshow on the primary display. There are a few ways you can get around this:
    1.) Export your slideshow as a Quicktime Movie and play it in Quicktime or iTunes
    -- File > Export > Slideshow -- Check off "Display" and "Automatically send slideshow to iTunes"
    -- Once your slideshow (now a movie) is in iTunes you can move itunes to your second display (or projector) and then play
    2.) Change the primary display from the computer display to the projector
    -- You can tell your computer to display on the projector first by changing your display preferences
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301408#3
    -- Go to Apple > System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement > Drag the small white bar from the current display (which is your computer) to the secondary display (which is your projector)
    -- Now play your slideshow
    3.) Set your computer to use mirroring ( I don't like this option because you lose your primary display for the duration of the slideshow
    -- Go to Apple > System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement >Mirror
    -- Now play your slideshow
    Hope that helps!

  • SRM 4.0- How to set the default values for product type (01) only for SC

    The radio button “Service” should not be visible.
    Also for search help (e.g. search for internal products) where a search should only be possible for product type 01 (goods). The system should not display the product type and internally always search for goods only.
    How to set the default values for product type (01) only for SC
    We needs to use Search help BBPH_PRODUCT which having parameter PRODUCT_TYPE
    Here we can set defalut value 01 but it is not correct one since same search help is using several places.
    We need to limit the search help results only for SC.
    Kindly help out me ASAP.

    The easiest way to set defautl values is to edit the batch class.
    Goto the characteiristic and go to update values.
    In here you probably have something like 0 - 100 as a spec range.
    On the next line enter the default value within this range.  At the end of the line, click in the box in the column labelled "D".  This indicates the defautl value for the characteristic.
    If you need to you can do this in the material classification view as well.
    Just to be clear, these values will only show up in the batch record.  You can not have defautl values in resutls recording screens.

    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.

    Hi all,

    But no screen displayed and error "No transaction type is available for creating a transaction" occurs

    Thank you.

    Hi Rupesh,
    Thanks for your reply..
    I made a lot of controls but I can't find where I am wrong..
    My senario is, taking phones, create interaction record and create order for further investigation.
    I copied IC_AGENT role.
    I copied transaction type 0010 to Z010
    I create business transaction named ZBTP for transaction type Z010
    I made Define Transaction Types for Navigation for Z010
    Then Define Business Role -> Assign Function Profiles
    Here I assign my business transaction ZBTP to IC_BT function profile
    But when I connect tot the system with user having this business role
    I can create interaction record with type Z010, it is ok.
    When I press Service Order it gives this error.
    Work center id for Service order is : IC_UIU_SVO
    I copied my business role from IC_AGENT, and here this work center id was not active
    In my business role I made it active.  Is this work center can't used in IC senario
    Also how can I understand which transaction type is needed for it??
    If I know which transaction type is needed to create service order or service ticket under IC, then I will control it of course..
    I also copied transaction type TSVO(service IC) to ZSVO and do the above things for this type too..
    But nothing changed..
