Rehearsing AND saving a keynote presentation?

I have a keynote presentation that I have already delivered. I also have a good quality audio of the event. I want to run the keynote while listening to the audio file AND save the timings. I would intend next to add the audio to the saved timings and then save the whole thing as a stand-alone quick movie lecture. This should eliminate problems with different processor speeds on different machines.
I know I can 'rehearse' timings in Keynote but can I SAVE the timings?
Can I do this using Keynote/Garageband etc?
thanks

There are a couple options for you here.
Keynote can do this, but some users have had problems with the saved timing not being exact on Quicktime Export. What you want to do is Record the Slideshow. You can find this in the Play Menu. Add the audio as the soundtrack and you will hear it while recording. Then when you export, make sure you uncheck to include Recorded Audio in the Quicktime movie.
The other option if your slides do not contain a lot of animation, and you are ok using different transitions, is to export the images of the slides and do the whole thing in iMovie. You can add the audio and set the length each image is on for.

Hey mjmsurrey60,
It sounds like the iDevices have gotten out of sync with the home network. I would advise a full power cycle of the circuit involved.
Unplug the 8600 while powered on
Unplug the power from the router
COMPLETELY power off the iDevices, not simply put in sleep mode. Click here for information about how to do so on an iPhone. The steps are similar for other iDevices.
Wait 30-60 seconds
Plug the router back up and wait for it to completely power back up
Plug the 8600 back in for power
Power the iDevices back up and wait for them to sync with the network again
Try to print again
Let me know the results.

I save and closed my Keynote presentation and it just won't open. Message : Can't open document «Not a valid ketnote document»

I just finished a keynote presentation and saved and closed it. Now it just won't open. Message : Can't open document «Not a valid keynote document»
I recreated a new one. And it does the same. Impossible to reopen any of my keynote presentations.
What can I do!!! My presentationis tomorrow morning!!!
Keynote '09 version 5.0.5 with MAC OS 10.6.7

Have the same issue. Use the same version and OS. I get sometimes the message 'Could not save the document. No such file or directory. What happens is that the file is corrupted and not usable anymore.... Sorry i can not help, but this is a serious error and we get crazy here since we have several stations with the same problem....
Come on Apple... help!

How to take a specific image on a website and add to keynote presentation?

Hi, Everybody--I'm a neophyte keynote person, and I've only sporadically used PowerPoint. I remember that in PowerPoint I could take an image from a website, crop the image, and then copy it onto a slide. I've been trying to do that through keynote, but I haven't found a way to do it. For example, if I were to find a good picture of George Washington on the web and wanted to use it as a slide, how could I do that? Thanks.

If one is the in the US, this kind of activity may be governed by the fair use provisions of US copyright law. Essentially, if you are using material for non-commercial, educational purposes, and are not using large portions of a work, then you should be OK. It would, however, be a courtesy to let the original creator know about your use.
Be aware that there are a lot of websites that offer stock photography and other images for free (such as morguefile.com) or for very reasonable prices (such as iStockPhoto).

Why is the font garbled in my keynote presentation?

I saved a keynote presentation yesterday (notebook theme) and all was fine; this morning, though, the font (Bradley Hand ITC) is spaced wrongly, as if it's typed over itself... Weird. I can change the font as a workaround, but I'd prefer not to have too. I've only had my Macbook three weeks...

Hi, and thanks for getting back to me.
The weird thing is that I installed the latest updates this morning, and saw that one of them related to fonts. I opened the keynote presentation in question and it was fine. When I closed it and opened it again to check, the problem had returned...

I believe you need to go into System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement so the image you want appears on the projector.

Undo a saved keynote presentation

Is there a way to go back in time (undo) a saved keyonte presention to icloud?

I have the same problem; every time I open a keynote presentation I have to re-insert .mov files, and every time I close the presentation they are gone (that is, the thumb is there but the movie is not, and despite checking "copy audio and movies into the document".
HELP.

I would appreciate it if someone could advise me as to the optimum resolution, dimensions and dpi for actual photographic slides that I am scanning for use in a Keynote Presentation, that will be projected in a large auditorium. I realize that most projectors in auditoriums that I will be using have 1024 x 1200 pixels, and possibly 1600 x 1200. There is no reference to this issue in the Keynote Tutorial supplied by Apple, and I have never found a definitive answer to this issue online (although there may be one).
Here’s my question: When scanning my photographic slides, what setting, from 72 dpi to 300 dpi, would result in the best image quality and use up the most efficient amount of space?
Here’s what two different photo slide scanning service suppliers have told me:
Supplier No. 1 tells me that they can scan slides to a size of 1544 x 1024 pixels, at 72 dpi, which will be 763 KB, and they refer to this as low resolution (a JPEG). However, I noticed when I looked at these scanned slides, the size of the slides varied, with a maximum of 1.8 MB. This supplier says that the dpi doesn’t matter when it comes to the quality of the final digital image, that it is the dimensions that matter. They say that if they scanned a slide to a higher resolution (2048 x 3072), they would still scan it at 72 dpi.
Supplier No. 2: They tell me that in order to have a high quality image made from a photographic slide (starting with a 35 mm slide, in all cases), I need to have a “1280 pixel dimension slide, a JPEG, at 300 dpi, that is 8 MB per image.” However, this supplier also offers, on its list of services, a “Standard Resolution JPEG (4MB file/image – 3088 x 2048), as well as a “High Resolution JPEG (8 MB file/image – 3088x2048).
I will be presenting my Keynotes with my MacBook Pro, and will not have a chance to try out the presentations in advance, since the lecture location is far from my home, so that is not an option.
I do not want to use up more memory than necessary on my laptop. I also want to have the best quality image.
One more question: When scanning images myself, on my own scanner, for my Keynote presentations, would I be better off scanning them as JPEGs or TIFFs? I have been told that a TIFF is better because it is less compressed.
Any enlightenment on this subject would be appreciated.
Thank you.

When it comes to Keynote, I try and start with a presentation that's 1680 x 1050 preset or something in that range. Most projectors that you'll get at a conference won't project much higher than that and if they run at a lower resolution, it's better to have the device downsize your Keynote. Anything is better than having the projector try and upsize your presentation... you work hard to make it look good, and it's mangled by some tired Epson projector.
As far as slides go, scan them in at 150 dpi or better, and make them at least the dimensions of your presentation. Keynote is really only wanting 72dpi, but I do them at 150, just in case I need to print out the presentation as a handout later, and having the pix at 150 dpi gives me a little help with their quality on a printer.
You'd probably have to drop in the 150 versions again if you output the Keynote to .pdf or Word or something, but at least you have the option.
And Gary's right (above) go ahead and scan them as TIFFs. Sooner or later you'll want to do something else with these slides (like make something for an iPad or the like) and having them as TIFFs keeps your presentation looking good.
Finally, and this is a big one, get to the location for your presentation ahead of time if you can, and plug the laptop in and see what you get. There's always connection problems. Don't let the AV bonehead tell you everything will work just fine ('... I don't have any adapters for a Mac...') . See it for yourself... you're the one that's standing up there. Unless it's your boss, then you better be really sure it works.

I have a 2010 iMac 21.5, and have updated with Maverick. Now I can't open the pages or modify the keynote presentation I am working on.

I recently updated my 2010 iMac 21.5 to MAVERICK. Now I have installed new versions of Pages and Keynote. I have been working on a KEYNOTE presentation that I am modifing for a new presentation at month end, and I can not insert new script. The template is blocked.
Also, when opening an existing PAGES, I get the message that a new version must be installed and it directs me to the app store to buy it for $19.95. Even though these new editions were installed free with MAVERICK, do I now have to purchased these updates?

Did you make the Keynotes presentation in the old or the new Keynotes, if you made it with the old version and try to modify it with the new there could be some incomaptibilites. Try opening the presentation with the original version of Keynotes which will probably be located in the Applications folder under iWork.
Does the message state you may or must purchase an upgrade. For most tasks the old Pages will work on many occasions.
I have the latest Pages to allow my devices to share over iCloud but I have not upgraded Numbers or Keynote as I do not require the functions the lastest versions provide.

I have a keynote presentation that includes a significant amount of video. When I edit the keynote slides (not the video slides) how can I save the changes without re-saving the videos (because that takes a VERY long time)?

I have a keynote presentation that includes a significant amount of video. When I edit the keynote slides (not the video slides) how can I save the changes without re-saving the videos (because that takes a VERY long time)? I edit the presentation depending on the audience to which I am presenting.

If you add a new slide with just a text box (therefore a very small amount of data), to an existing presentation then save, Keynote will only save the new content to the file, it wont save pre-existing content as its already included in the file.
The time taken to "save" will be very much shorter than a "save as" when all of the existing content is saved again.

Is there any way to view a keynote presentation and the presenter notes on the iPad at the same time?

Is there any way to view a keynote presentation and the presenter notes on the iPad at the same time? My professors at school have keynote presentations and i take notes during class with the presenter notes feature. I was wondering if there was any way i can view both of them on the same screen on my iPad while studying? This way I could see their slides along with the notes i take during class.

None that I know of. Suggest to Apple.

HT3697 I am trying to convert a Keynote Presentation to a cross platform PDF file. When using export it creates a 30mb file when it only need to be 2-3mb and so cant email or use it very easily. How do I get the file size down?

I'm trying export a Keynote presentation to PDF, or other format, to use on Windows PC, iPad and other devices.
The file Keynote create is way too large at 30mb+. So cant email or share it very easily
If I print it and to Adobe PDF I can get it to 3mb, but have to crop it manually, and some settings or graphics are not so good or accdeptable!
Does anyone know how to do this?

Use Dropbox to send large files that cant be sent using email:

I have several keynote presentations on my computer but now am getting the message that the program cannot be installed "because of a problem." All this started when I bought microsoft office for University (2011). What is the problem and how can I fix

I have several keynote presentations on my newish computer but am not unable to open them. I get the message "keynote cannot be installed because of a problem" (unspecified). Does anybody know why this happend? Does it related to using Microsoft "University" 2011? How can I fix it? Thanks!

Thank you for your reply.
I just tried the 3-step process suggested on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2431353
This all started when my mouse/thumb clicker was going crazy. Found an expanded battery. Obviously need a new battery. Unfortunately must wait 6 weeks to get my new battery. Meanwhile, I'm running my computer on AC only, as there appears to be no other option. I was informed that when using AC only (no battery) some high-energy-use programs like Office might not function.
Do you know if there is away to use office even when just using AC and not having the battery in? I'm doubting if I have other OSX problems because everything else works: email, safari, itunes, iphoto, quicktime, etc . . . . ?
ciao,

I need to play a song on a Keynote presentation, how do I do this ? I use to drag and drop the mp3 in Keynote but it stops playing when the slide move to the other one... how can I make the song keep playing through the whole presentation ? Thanks.

I need to play a song in a row in a Keynote presentation, how do I do this ? I use to drag and drop the mp3 in Keynote but it stops playing when the slide move to the other one... how can I make the song keep playing through out the presentation ?
Thanks.

Drag the file into the audio window in the Document inspector...

HT4640 I have been developing a keynote presentation & want to play audio across several slides. Also want to insert movies made in final cut X but am finding I have to go to black and double click movie files before they appear. looks awful to do that.

I am new to Keynote and the newest version was just installed in my apps. I have found difficulty in using audio in a presentation since my presentation plays various audio clips over several slides or movie clips. My solution has been to create movies with my audio (.mov from final cut x) and insert into the presentation. They play in the presentation but I cannot get a smooth transition. The presntation must go to black and I have to double click for every "slide" that is done this way. I am on the verge of going back to powerpoint as my presentation platform. Seems there is little or no flixibility in keynote.
