Remote not working with keynote 5.3 on mavericks

Using the apple remote on keynote 5.3. Cannot advance the slides anymore
Any help would be appreciated. Keynote 6 is not what I expected

As a follow up -
I spoke with Apple Support about this and was routed to a few people who were helpful, and moved it up to the engineers of Keynote (and the white remote?) for a solution.
A few days later I received this reply:
Hello Eric, I have heard back from the engineers about this. It looks like as long as Keynote 6.0 is present on the system it will default to using the remove in that application. If you remove Keynote 6.0, which we would not recommend, then you can use Keynote 5.3 with the remote. Presently though this is normal and expected behavior.
I replied by expressing my disappointment that this wasn't functional, since I'm not comfortable using Keynote 6.0 yet.  Short of uninstalling 6.0, the only workaround I have found is to use the iPhone/iTouch Keynote remote app, or make a duplicate copy of your presentation to be opened in 6.0 (and using the remote there).

    Why should Apple fix the problem? Maybe you should consider NOT upgrading if an expensive piece of (obsolete) software you're running won't work with it...

  • Remote not working with Apple TV

    My Apple remote stopped working with my Apple TV the other day. The light on the Apple TV does flash as buttons are pressed, but nothing happens. I tried to pair the Apple remote, nothing. I tried to pair my Macbook remote, nothing. I have even pulled the plug a let it sit for a day before plugging it back in. I have recently upgraded to iTunes 7.3.
    Thanks

    What does it do when you connect it back up and turn it on, what screen do you get etc.

  • Remote Not Working With QuickTime 7.3.0

    Hi I just upgraded and realized my frontrow remote has stopped working with Quicktime. The remote works with VLC, iTunes etc but not QT. Forget about scanning forward or backward it cant even adjust the volume. I never had the problem before. I have tried playing both avi and mp4 files.

  • Remote not working with WinXP 64

    I have a X-FI Platinum card with the front module and remote. Under WinXP Pro everything worked fine. I have since upgraded to WinXP 64 bit Pro and the remote does not work.
    I have installed the latest driver for WinXP 64 (At least last weeks driver) which went OK. Soundcard seems to work OK. I have a 5. speaker setup and I get sound from all speakers. Before there was the createi've audio console that was in the system tray, but that doesn't seem to be there with WinXP 64.
    Is there another download that I need to do for the Remote to function ? Also I no longer have any sound test options in the audio console is there another download for that as well ??System Specs:ASUS P5N32 SLI Deluxe MOBOIntel P4 660 processor2 GB RAMBFG 7800 GT video cardX-FI Platinum sound cardWinXP Pro 64 bit?Thanks,?wstreaker

    I am not sure whether the remote software gets installed with the 64 bit drivers or not. I know some people have turned to alternate software to control the remote on WinXP 64 bit edition successfully. I am sure you can find out what I mean by searching these forums, I am not allowed to say any more than that. Hope that helps?

  • Remote not working with new Mac Book Pro

    Had my 2.16 MBP for 2 days and cannot get the remote to work. The IR is not disabled, but I cannot select the UNPAIR option so I am guessing the remote is not paired with the MBP.
    I am pressing the Menu and FFD button, but nothing appears to happen.
    Has anyone got any suggestions as to what to try next ?
    Thanks

    Hi Mate,
    I read this once somewhere hope it helps..
    A great way to tell whether your remote control is working or not is to point it at the camera while you have Photo Booth running. The camera somehow picks up the IR signal and translates it into the visible, which I think is hilarious. It works with any IR remote control.
    If your remote is eating up batteries that fast, it might have some kind of short circuit. I'd get it replaced.

  • Remote not working with MBP lid closed

    My MBP OSX 10.8.2 is plugged in using the charger and connected via an HDMI adapter to my TV.  Apparently, the MBP will work in clamshell mode only if connected to a display and connected to a
    The Apple TV remote controller works fine if the lid is open at a distance of 15 feet.  Once the lid is closed, however, the remote controller stops working.  It was working fine previously.  The remote works fine with other appliances and applications, such as Apple TV as well as the MBP when the lid is open, so I believe the batteries are fine.
    Any help would be most appreciated.  Thank you.

  • Apple Remote not working with Mac Mini

    Hi there,
    I woke up to quite a strange problem today... My Apple Remote is no longer working with my Mac Mini! I tried all the controls, including launching front row, and the volume controls - but no go...
    I even tried it in Windows BootCamp under iTunes, but it still wouldn't work..
    I tried pairing it in System preferences, but again, it wouldn't recognise my apple remote when i held down the Menu+fast forward keys for 5 seconds...
    The weird thing is, it works fine with my iMac on another floor (out of plain sight from my Mini..), and it isn't paired with the iMac or anything...
    Any idea what the problem might be? Thanks in advance!

    So you got a dead remote or a dead battery. Call AppleCare and it will be taken care of. What's the big deal? These things happen from time to time.

  • My first generation Ipad does not work with Keynote.

    The program appears to run normally, but it won't project.  My colleague's identical ipad works with our projector, and my cable works on his ipad.  What is wrong?

    Here are some things to try:
    - Restart the iPad
    - Remove and reinstall Keynote
    - Restore the OS on the iPad
    One of those might fix the problem.
    Regards.

  • Flash Remoting not working with CFERROR tags

    I need help and can't find out what's going on. I developed
    an app with CF7 and Flash Remoting and everything works fine, but
    as soon as I add an error-handling<CFERROR> tag to my
    Application.cfc file, Flash Remoting no longer works. It's almost
    like it can't connect to the gateway anymore or something is
    blocking it. When I remove the <CFERROR> tag in the
    Application.cfc file, everything works fine again. I really need to
    find a solution to this, any ideas???
    (CFMX7/SQL Server2000/Window 2003 Server)
    Here's my Application.cfc code:

    I have attached the actionscript for the data connection. The
    odd thing about this issue is some of the data is being displayed
    from the webservice call and then some is not. The drop down list
    is not being populated but I am getting some text in a textarea
    that is on the form. My datasource is a SQL Server database and in
    ColdFusion administrator, I used the actual machine name to point
    to the datasource because it is directly linked to my web server.
    This configuration is the one giving me problems. If I change the
    datasource to my test SQL Server (server.somewhere.com) it works
    fine. Does this help any?

  • Quicklook not working with Keynote

    Hey guys,
    I looked around and found a thread in this subject (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7332037&#7332037) . It said that I need to look inside the system/library/quicklook folder and see if the iWork.qlgenerator plug in was there. Is not there and I don't have another computer to get it from. So where can I get this plug in and install it?
    Thanks for your comments.

    Help anyone please!!

  • Apple infrared remote not working

    Just a few days ago I updated Keynote, my time scale is a little hazy but I know recently, like last week, I used my appl infrared remote to control Keynote. I was able to press play and advance slides. This was a great thing, I remember doing and thinking wow apple is great. Now it doesn't work. I can turn the volume up but playing or advancing the slides does nothing. It sure seems like the last update removed this feature.
    Anyone know whats going on?
    Thanks,
    Kris

    Hi Kris,
    If you are having an issue with your Apple Remote not working with your Keynote presentations, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article - 
    Troubleshooting the Apple Remote - Apple Support
    Start with the section titled If you're using the remote with a computer.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Sincerely,

  • Latexit service does not work in Keynote

    Hi,
    I would like to use the Latexit service to typeset an equation in Keynote. This works perfectly in Pages - I write the equation, select it, and hit my keyboard shortcut to call Latexit, which runs latex and returns an image and places it inline in the text.
    This does not work in Keynote. The service is there, and it definitely runs latex on my equation, but the text just disappears and no image appears in its place.
    Why does this work in Pages and not in Keynote. Is there anything I can do to get inline equations from Latexit in Keynote?
    regards

    Hi,
    Apparently this is a limitation of Keynote, which is not able to insert an image in a block of text- which means its not able to do inline equations.
    From the FAQ:
    (Q): The service does not work with Keynote.
    (A): The service does not work with Keynote 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, since Keynote cannot insert an image into a block of text; as a workaround, you can set in the Preferences, pane "Services", to register service calls in the history. That way, even if the service fails at inserting an image, this one becomes available in the history window, that could have been put in some corner for easy access.
    So, a solution might be to use LatexIt to render the equation, and then insert the equation as an image into Keynote, but you then have problems to line it up with your text.
    thanks for the help,

  • Apple remote won't work with Keynote + "not enough RAM" error

    Of course it works with Keynote 6.0 ('13), but not Keynote 5.3. It also works with iTunes and volume during Keynot '13 but will not advance the slide/animation.
    Anyone else have the same problem?
    Also, ever since Mavericks update, sometimes my Keynotes will not play due to an error that says I have insufficient RAM. Even if I close all other apps. Sometimes when I quit the app and restart it, it will work?
    Anyone else? Fixes?

    Solution: Deleted Keynote '13 and the remote works with '09 again.
    Hmmm...
    We'll see if the "not enough RAM" error pops up anymore.
