Scaling image files for Slide presentation in Keynote

I have had great problems importing and scaling images for Keynote presentations with approx 500+ images. Having tried to adjust the image to fit the full screen the scaling results in unacceptable pixelation. I seem to have solved this now by batch processing my image files and saving them as PDF files. These are then imported from the Aperture Library as iPhoto wont recognise the PDF file format!
It's a pity that Keynote has so many restrictions for use in Slide/music presentations, having seen incredible professional results with Pic2exe (which unfortunately at present is not available in Mac format - tho the Win exe file will run I am told).

Please tell us what you are really trying to do!!
You know like dumb stuff like where are the images from? What's their resolution? If you';re using Aperture you can't be a newbie. 
You can achieve incredible professional results in Keynote, but you need to know how it wants to work.
Kelly is right. This is not just a ***** session but a place to get real help from real people.

  • How do i change the amount of time for slides in a keynote presentation so they are not the same

    how do i vary the times for the slides in a keynote presentation, i have 3 videos i need to run longer and the slides I want to run the same

    Is this for an unattended presentation?
    1. If not, the option would seem to be:
    Manually advance the slides containing the videos or
    set the transition delay time to the next slide to occur after the video completes using the
    Slide > Transition Inspector > Delay (max delay is 600 seconds so if video is longer than 10 minutes, an automatic delay wouldn't work)
    2. If you plan this to be unattended your best bet is to compile it in iMovie and have a looping video with all parts timed in the video to your liking.

  • 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!

  • How do I get a list of all image files for a user?

    The Finder folder windows have changed the sidebar. I no longer see any way to configure the Finder window to display a quick search for all images. How do I easily run a search for all image files owned by a user?
    I am just starting to set up a brand new system that came with Yosemite and it's user interface has many changes from my older Snow Leopard system. I have many image files from many different sources that I wish to consolidate on the new system. I do not wish to rely on iPhoto at this point. I prefer to use the file system or Finder  or Spotlight.

  • Using Power Query to import image files for Power View

    I am trying to use Power Query to import image data from a SQL Azure database for use in Power View.  I've selected both the source image table and the ?images table in the workbook query.  The files seem to load as binary data in the Power
    Query editor but when loaded to the data model with Power Pivot, the field becomes "text" type rather than binary.  Does anyone know the procedure to use  PowerQuery to load image files into PowerPivot?

    Hi,
    We currently do not support loading binary data from Power Query into the Power Pivot data model. This is something we'd like to address soon. For now, you will need to use the Power Pivot import capabilities if you want to achieve this.
    Sorry about the inconvenience - we will try to enable this feature over the coming months.

  • Is there a way to display all the image files(jpeg, png, �) present in the

    Description:
    Currently I am using �Sun Java� Wireless Toolkit 2.5 for CLDC, Beta 2 � toolkit for developing J2ME applications. I am using the �javax.microedition.amms.control.imageeffect� package(JSR 234) for adding effects like red eye, border, etc. I need to display all the images in my /res folder so that the user can select one from the list for further image processing. I used File Connection API for displaying the images from the file system's /root folder. But while trying to apply the image effects I found that I can not access the file system's /root folder through getResourceAsStream(). getResourceAsStream()could only access the /res folder . Is this correct? Is there any other way to give the InputStream to the media processor through setInput()? Is there any other alternative to getResourceAsStream()? Or Is there any direct way to access the /res folder and display all its files for the user to select?
    Here is the code that I am using for providing the input and output streams and applying the image effect to the source file �Duke.jpg� in /res folder.
    MediaProcessor mp = GlobalManager.createMediaProcessor("image/jpeg");
    mp.addMediaProcessorListener(this);
    outputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    inputStream= getClass().getResourceAsStream(�Duke.jpg�);
    mp.setInput(inputStream, MediaProcessor.UNKNOWN);
    mp.setOutput(outputStream);
    ImageTransformControl itc = ImageTransformControl) mp.getControl ("javax.microedition.amms.control.imageeffect.ImageTransformControl");
    final int border =10;
    itc.setSourceRect(itc.getSourceWidth(), 0, -itc.getSourceWidth() , itc.getSourceHeight() );
    itc.setTargetSize(itc.getSourceWidth(),itc.getSourceHeight(),0);
    itc.setEnabled(true);
    mp.start();
    mp.complete();

    you need to set resource path correct place image file resource folder is correct but there is problem so yu need put the image in resource in this way C:\WTK23\apps\Image\res\example\hello\image.gif this work

  • No ActionScript 3 support for Slide Presentations?

    I noticed that in CS3, the Slide Presentation format does not
    support AS3. I have searched every inch of the web including this
    Adobe site, and I can't find any information on this. Is Adobe
    ending it's development and/or support of Slide based Flash? Is
    Adobe fazing out the Slide Presentation format?
    Although I am not a big fan of Slides, I am directed to
    develop courseware using it... So, this is a very important
    question for future development.
    Any Comments on this?

    Simple, I always upgrade flash, and upgrade my knowlegd about
    new features. I did it from as1 to as2, and I'm trying to do this
    to AS3. But, some features are disapeared like, accordion, slide
    presentation classes,
    I know that AS3 is better ans faster, so, I need more reasons
    to want migrate to it?

  • CS3 PS PDF files for PDF Presentation . . . help!!!!

    I have made PDF presentation in previous versions of PS through automate or using Bridge. I used both jpeg and PS generated PDF files to create the presentation and never had a problem. I used the same file size and format to create a new presentation (section and title sheets with type) and could not get the pdf to view to be crisp and clear. I remade the base psd file to be twice the size, created PS PDFs and Bridge says it can't utilize the files. I've tried everything!! Does anybody know what the best format is for a PS based doc to be made into pdfs for a presentation????

  • Background Image file for 7975

    What are the file specifications for a custom background image on the Cisco 7975 Ip phone? I mean, the size, resolution, color depth and so on
    Thank you in advance

    The PNG files for background images must meet the following requirements for proper display on the Cisco Unified IP Phone:
    •Full size image-320 pixels (width) X 212 pixels (height).
    •Thumbnail image-80 pixels (width) X 53 pixels (height).
    •Color palette-Includes up to 16-bit color (65535 colors). You can use more than 16-bit color, but the phone will reduce the color palette to 16-bit before displaying the image. For best results, reduce the color palette of an image to 16-bit when you create a PNG file.

  • Submitting an image file for indexing generates the tokens "IMAGE" and "1"

    This is a problem because the user is able to submit any file through a web interface, and we want to determine when there is zero output from the indexing process so we can warn the user that the file they submitted has no indexable content.
    I'd rather keep the detection algorithm simple: currently it checks to see whether any tokens were indexed for the record the user just edited, and IF there were NO tokens, the user is warned that the file they submitted contains no indexable words. But if ctxhx.exe generates the string "Image 1" when someone gives it (for example) a jpeg file, that's not going to work.
    So my questions are these: How do I prevent ctxhx from generating any tokens when someone gives it an image file? And if that's not possible, how can I include logic in a batch file to detect an image file and prevent ctxhx from handling it? (Since the files are renamed without extensions when indexed, I can't determine file type from extensions). I know there's a command-line program called TestForPDF.exe, which I found at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/text/htdocs/altfilters.htm; is there a similar program (perhaps TestForImage.exe), or instructions for creating such a program?

    I finally resorted to using the "format column" feature of the context index. The code in my front-end looks at the extension of the file submitted by the user, and sets the value of the format column to "IGNORE" before it tries to resync the index. It seems a bit kludgy, but it works.

  • Keynote is an amazing tool for preparing presentations.However, keynote for iOS devices(e.g. iPad) doesnot have the simple way to add audio files in to the files.When we will have the update to add music files right into the keynote slide?

    I have been using Keynote for presentation slides to be used in conducting training sessions. Though, Keynote has beautiful interface with elegant transitions to animate, it doesnot provide any way to add audio or music files into the slides in iOS devices alone. I have been waiting for the update to add this very feature,but cannot find it yet.When could we have this upate?

    Send Apple feedback and tell them what you want. However, many app versions of programs are skinnied down, and that functionality may not be workable in the App version. Can't know until you suggest it to them however.
    Lower right corner of this page, the contact us link, give it a try.

  • Is it possible to reduce the size of a single image on a slide now in keynote 6.0?

    This feature seems to have disappeared in the update and the only option is to reduce the whole file size..
    Thanks!

    Hi Gary
    Sorry should have been clearer - I mean reduce size of the image in byte terms not resize. In keynote 09 you could use format>image>reduce size fo rthe slected image only.
    It was a better way of just dealing with a specific bloated image rather than reducing the resolution of images throughout.
