Saved Keynote presentation as .PPT but will not open in Windows

I have a new Macbook Pro with Keynotes (Dec 10). I had a presentation prepared in Windows 7 PowerPoint. It opens in Keynote but if I save as .ppt, it will not fully open in Windows PowerPoint 2010. The slides all open but there is no content. Keynote is version 2009 5.0.4 (633).
Is there some secret to using Keynote - None of the previous items seem to address my situation.

for what its worth, I've been trying to do the same today
however the problem doesn't seem to lie with the Keynote to Powerpoint, as that opens fine on the same Mac
it seems to be the resulting PowerPoint Mac file, copied to PowerPoint Windows that is stumping the presentation and producing the blank slides (which is does mention in the warnings that flash up on the PC when you open the file).
Unfortunatley I cant seem to find an alternative to the Save-As version '97-2004 that Mac PowerPoint can produce:
Keynote '09 v5.0.5
PowerPoint 2008 v12.2.5 Mac
PowerPoint 2007 PC 12.0.6557.5001 SP2

  • How to burn a slideshow to DVD for anyone to play. I burned a DVD and can play it on my mac, but will not open in windows

    Need to know how to burn a DVD that can be viewed by any DVD player.  I created a DVD from a slideshow created in iPhoto.  I can open it on my computer, but it will not open or even be recognized in my home DVD player.  I asked a friend to try it on a Windows computer and he could not open it.  What's the key to creating things for friends & family that do not have Mac anything?

  • Firefox 4.0 will not open at all. It shows that the process is running in the task manager but will not open the window even after closing the prcess and restarting.

    I have had firefox since an earlier 2. version and have been able to upgrade as normal. After the installation is done it will not open at all. I have restarted and even uninstalled all previous version .exe and still nothing. I am using windows 7 OS. I am still running 3.6.8 and would love to see the new one running on my laptop.

    hello, this crash is caused by Websense Endpoint security software that is running on the system. please try to install all the updates for this program that are available...

  • Safari 4 seems to launch but will not open a window

    I've been using the two releases of Safari 4 beta and installed the final v4 of Safari when it came out.
    When I launch it, it seems to be OK - the menu headers are all there and the menus drop down but it doesn't open a new page and when I try to create one with -N, nothing happens.
    I tried to re-install the latest version of the beta but the installer said that it could not install on my system. However, I have another drive with OSX 10.5.7 on it so I installed it on there and copied it over and it worked fine for about a week.
    For the past few days after several hours of normal operation, I have been getting the SBBoD when I have been using various different applications (with Safari in the background) and the whole Mac seems to be stuck. When I try to force quit, all the running applications seem to be OK but Safari is listed as not responding. As soon as I quit Safari, everything returns to normal but if I launch Safari again it will happen again within a few minutes.
    Having just installed today's Java update, I thought it might have fixed the Safari 4 full problem of not launching properly but it didn't. I've had to go through the whole process of installing Safari 4b on my other drive and copying it over again.
    I've tried the remedies I've already found on here - has anybody any other thoughts?

    I seem to maybe having a similar problem. I have the latest Safari 4 installed and the lastest Java update. Just today, my Safari stopped responding. I can open it, but I have it set to open a blank page on start up. If I try to browse to a website, it just hangs and I have to force quit to end. It almost seems like a DNS or some other network issue except Firefox works fine. To reiterate, I can start Safari, create new tabs, open preferences, but if I try to load a page, that's when things go wrong.
    I do have a few plugins installed, both 1Password and Evernote. I also use the Keywurl plugin. My next step is to start uninstalling the plugins.
    Any similarities with you?

  • On Mac 10.6.8 running Firefox 11 one account works fine, while on the other FF appears to launch but will not open a window.

    On an iMac using OS 10.6.8 and Firefox 11, one account runs FF just fine but another account on the same machine does not. FF appears to launch...the control bar appears at the top of the screen and a light comes on below the icon...but no window opens. Clicking on a link in an email brings same result.

    OOOOPS! Standing in the shower this morning I realized what the problem was. A visiting nephew showed my wife & I a YouTube video and displayed it on the big screen TV by dragging the FF window to the TV while logged-in to my wife's account. When we finished watching the video we switched the TV input back to TV and never dragged the window back to the computer screen. Happy to report all is now working as it should.

  • I have used the resume tablet and put my resume into format but when emailing it, it will not open on windows. How can I change the format to where they will be able to open and view it?

    I have used the resume tablet and put my resume into format but when emailing it, it will not open on windows. How can I change the format to where they will be able to open and view it?

    I guess you mean one of the resume templates.
    What "format" have you saved your finished resume in?
    The only formats a Windows user will be able to open are .doc (Word), .pdf and rtf. The 1st 2 are usually the best.
    There is no Windows version of Pages.

    Thanks.

    I stumbled upon the solution. In addition to downloading Creative Cloud, I needed to go back to the website and  download trials for the programs I want to use--Photoshop and Lightroom. Once I did that, I was in business. Would save trouble if that was made clear on the download site.
    Thanks

  • ITunes installs properly, but will not open

    I have just upgraded from iTunes 6.0.1 to 6.0.2
    Everything installed correctly, and I am receiving no error messages; the program simply will not open. I have uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times, and I have exactly the same problem each time.
    My music files (including ones that I purchased from Apple's music store) will open with other players, but will not open with the newly installed v6.0.2
    I am running Norton Internet security, but the problem still occurs after I disable the program.
    Any assistance is appreciated.

    Well, that annoying. So, I am a bit confused here. Does iTunes launch at all or sometimes? BTW, You need to Configure Norton to allow iTunes to open. Otherwise, it will continue to block it silently.
    Do you see, under your Processes tab in your Windows Task Manager, both Quicktime and iTunes?

    Hey janicem42177174,
    Adobe no longer supports the installation and use of Acrobat 6 as it is a very old version which is not compatible with Windows 7.
    I would suggest you to please use the latest version of Acrobat i.e. 11.0.10 which is fully compatible with your OS with its enhanced features and functions.
    You might download a free 30-day trial version of Acrobat from here:
    Download Adobe Acrobat free trial | Acrobat XI Professional
    Let me know how it goes

    Ok, that's plenty of space.
    Check the S.M.A.R.T. status on your HD: Boot from install disc (insert disc > restart > immediately hold down the c key and keep holding it until you see “Preparing Installation”) > at first screen select the language and click Continue > click on the Utilities Menu in the menu bar > select Disk Utility > select your HD in the panel on the left side (the name of the HD’s manufacturer and the model number, usually the top item in the list) > look at the bottom of the main window next to S.M.A.R.T. status and see if it says “Verified” (good) or something more ominous like “Failing.”
    If S.M.A.R.T. status is "Verified," run Repair Disk > click Repair Disk at bottom of main window. Run this at least twice, and keep running it until it says “appears ok” twice in a row. If that doesn’t happen, you may need a stronger utility (such as DriveGenius, TechToolPro, DiskWarrior) or if the directory is damaged beyond repair, you may need to reinstall the OS, or you may have a damaged HD which will need to be replaced (repair utilities can only repair the directory structure, not the HD itself). When this is finished, quit Disk Utility, quit the installer, and restart. Once booted normally, go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility and run Repair Permissions.

  • My outlook will not open yet all other microsoft packages will.  When I click on the icon, the 'o' logo will come up for a split second but will not open the package - need to receive emails asap!

    You're very welcome!
    I meant holding the "option" (or "alt") key on your keyboard as you click the Outlook icon on the Dock, and continuing to hold it until you see the Microsoft Database Utility come up. Alternatively, you can open the utility by navigating to Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office and then double-clicking the Microsoft Database Utility app.
    When you rebuild your database using that program, a backup copy of your original database (containing your account info, contacts, mail, calendars, etc) will be created. As a security precaution, you should also ensure you have a backup of your database (which you can find by going to Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2011 Identities/ and copying the contents of that folder onto an external drive).

  • U/tube videos open when using Safari but will not open when using Firefox.

    u/tube videos open fine when using Safari but will not open when using Firefox. With Firefox I get the unhighlighted Quicktime symbol with a question mark in the center. WHY?? Any help appreciated --- Toroya

    Hmmmm, strange you view YouTube in Safari & not FF. Which version of FF are you using?
    Try the following:
    Repair permissions & restart.
    Make sure you have the latest versions of Adobe Flash Player Software
    QuickTime Preferences > Advanced > MIME Stettings > Miscellaneous.
    Deactivate the "Flash Media" option.
