Timing a Keynote Presentation

Is there anyway to time a keynote presentation? I have to export my keynote into an Quicktime file & when it is exported it plays the presentation too quickly.

How 'bout Manual Advance? Press the Spacebar or click the mouse to advance to the next slide.
OR - Recorded Timing. If you recorded your slideshow (as described in Recording a Voiceover Narration), your slideshow movie plays using the timing you recorded. You don;t need to actually record your voice ... just "pretend" and advance like you were recording.

  • Is there a way to pre-record the timing of the slides and effects in a keynote presentation, so that you can present it without having to press anything?

    Hi! It would be great if someone could tell me how to pre-record timings in a keynote presentation, so that when presented, it plays by itself, based on the pre-set recordings. I know there is a way to do it by going to      Inspector>Document> Audio> Record          However when you do this, your computer also records the sounds it picks up with the microphone, which can greatly affect the sound. I have Keynote '09. Thanks in advance!

    Open the Settings app > Notifications > Messages. Scroll down adn turn OFF "View In Lock Screen". You may want to consider setting Alert style to none, but this will not impact what happens when the screen is locked.

  • 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.

  • Keynote Presentation in continious Loop

    I have a keynote presentation with video clips, charts, etc. I want to put it in in a self-playing mode so that visitors at our booth can see it. However, when I do it it does not show full video clips. What transitions,builds setting I need. Videos run varying amount of time. I would greatly appreciate any help.

    You can either go through and set the timing for each of you builds, actions and transitions or you can set them all to happen on click and then Record the slideshow and set the timing yourself.

  • Exporting Keynote presentation with ALL transitions to download to DVD

    Hi guys... I have a keynote presentation that I want to burn to DVD. The transitions are quite tricky (set to music) but when I exported it to iDVD, only the basic (cube) transitions transferred and not the other ones (timing). Is it possible to download these presentation EXACTLY as seen in the program?

    I am not sure... I think I tried BOTH. I am basically putting photos in the presentation to fit with the music. As this particular piece has some really fast bits in it, I have a selection of photos with minimal transitions (really fast) within the rest of the photos that have the cube transition (set at about 8 seconds each). Only the cube transitions exported.

  • Export Keynote Presentations to Make a DVD with Sound

    I am very pleased with the ease of use and beauty of Keynote compared to PPT and its clunky interface, and I really like Keynote's elegant transitions and builds.
    I have a number of Keynote presentations from 20 minutes to about an hour that I want to place on DVDs to share with others.
    I own Final Cut Pro 4.5, DVD Studio Pro 3.0, Motion 1.0, iLife '04, Keynote 1.0, Keynote 2.0.2, Garage Band 1.0, and Sound Studio 2.1. I've been a Mac user since 1985 and have kept up with many apps and am a professional photographer, but am just getting into video production and need advice.
    1. Is it possible to import a Keynote (v.2) or (v.3) into FCP as it is advertized for iDVD? Or can Keynote files be imported into DVD Studio Pro 3.0 also? Pros vs Cons?
    2. Is it possible to lay down a complete sound track in FCP and then import a Keynote presentation and sync it to the transitions and builds?
    3. Or is it necessary to cut up the sound into the correct time length for each slide (and builds) and paste into each slide in Keynote?
    4. Is there a way to easily modify the time length of a slide (transition and/or build(s)) within FCP after the Keynote presentation has been imported?
    5. If this is saved in QuickTime can that be imported into FPC?
    6. Or is it better to lay down individual sound bytes in FCP after the Keynote presentation is imported?
    7. Are there any tricks that I should know about in timing the sound bytes for each slide transition with its builds?
    8. Do I need QuickTime Pro?
    9. If I upgrade to Keynote 3, will that make things work easier, such as exporting directly to iDVD or DVD Studio Pro 3.0?
    10. If I upgrade to iLife '06 with its iDVD, will that facilitate in any way?
    Thanks in advance for your advice.

    I love Keynote, took me a bit to figure out how to keep it looking so good exporting it so i could use it in FCP and Motion and then to DSP. The trick is when you export from Keynote use the QT and then go to formats then custom, under video change it from 800x600 i alwas use 800x600 to build Keynote presentations looks better when you export, change this to 720x540 this will keep your presentation looking just as nice. Under settings i use Animation and millions of colors, good luck i use this method and works every time. From there you can take it right into DSP or FCP and even Motion, i usually don't export sound from Keynote but you could i add mine later in FCP. Hope this works for you.

  • How do I make a Keynote presentation play on a DVD Player?

    I finished a Keynote presentation for a client, who now wants to show the finished product on a TV using a DVD player. How can this be done? Do I need to run it through iMovie, or can I burn a DVD from Keynote? The client will be using the unit's remote control to stop-and-play.

    I have never tried this, so I can't comment on the results, but in +Share>Send To+ there is an option for iDVD. You can decide to have the timing as Manual Advance, Recorded Timing or Fixed Timing.
    If you do try this route, post back here and let us know how it works.

  • How to Export Keynote Presentation to Maintain Multimedia content?

    I have a Keynote presentation with audio and video embedded in it.  It shows fine on screen but many of the participants are not on iPad or Apple. Is Quicktime the best way to export the file and preserve the multi-media?  It seems to take for ever pluys I do not think it maintains Keynote transitions at all. 
    html export did not export the video files.
    Has anyone successfully exported and maintained the multi media content?
    Thanks..
    Venkat

    hello.... I'm in the same boat ...
    I've tried to follow all the steps on this thread and the link also - still not working very well.
    my third slide has an "intro sound" - 2 seconds, then a narration, about 22 seconds - an mp3 dragged in from iTunes. When I'm actually in Keynote it seems to work best if I set the slide transition to delay for 23 seconds. looks great, sounds great - timing correct.
    I export to quicktime using ... fixed timing, slide duration = blank , build duration = blank, then custom format, h.264, best quality, automatic key frames, automatic data rate. my 45 slides get done about an hour later - and suddenly slide 3 sits there for about 15 seconds after the audio is done ... looks like it crashed, but slowly, it does move on...
    very frustrating -
    question : If I have builds or audio on a slide, is it normal to have to put time in for a delay on the transition? is there a way to have the slide transition when all builds or sounds, have completed, or do I have to add up all the bits on the slide, and enter that number in the delay ?
    also - is sound somehow a different length (doesn't sound speeded up) after the presentation has been exported? my next experiment is to make my durations incorrect in keynote, in hopes that they will end up correct in the finished movie. doesn't seem right tho....
    thanks in advance!

  • 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
    Ron Bailey

    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.

  • How can I keep timing in Keynote consistent before burning?

    How can I keep timing in Keynote consistent before burning? And also, is there a way to preview the show,say halfway through it, without the music starting at the beginning. This solution would save a lot of hours of prep  before that final burn?

    I do tons of presentations and know exactly what you are talking about.  I have experienced presentations that (I know this sounds illogical) seem to get a little out of sync depending on the projector I am using for the presentation.
    I know this is not a great soulution but it might help a little.  With 325 pictures make 3 presentations and link them together.  This is not pretty but may help some.  This way you have 3 specific points to start and edit from and won't experience as much of a domino effect if one is off. 
    If you are just using pictures and want a fairly automated presentation you might also think of using iMovie where you can have a little more flexibility with the soundtrack and timing.  If you use iMovie you can edit each picture individually as far as time and still be able to see where you are in the soundtrack in one "big picture" no pun intended.
    Keynote is awesome in most things but there are a few that are still very quirky.
    Hope this helps at least some.

  • How can I export a Keynote presentation to Quicktime while maintaining my set transitions?

    I try to export a Keynote presentation to Quicktime. This works, obviously, although it doesn't maintain the carefully timed transitions I set up. Instead, it just the default transition time for every slide, instead of the custom transitions I entered.
    The default transition time now is 5 seconds. I tried removing the 5 but it just returns and entering 0 seconds does exactly that; 0 seconds.
    Does anybody have an idea as to what I should do to fix this dastardly problem?

    This is a well known problem with Keynote 6.1, the only thing you can do is use Keynote 5.3 instead, if you have it.
    Meanwhile sit back and wait to see if Apple issues a fix in the schedule of updates they said they would issue during 2014.

  • Merging video and keynote presentations

    Is it possible in iMovie to combine a video of a person giving a presentation with a keynote presentation in order to creat the effect that we see at the keynote speeches. If not, does anyone know of any mac software that can do that?
    Thanks,
    Ged

    When using a voice over using the record slide show facility, the timing of every slide is set when advancing to the next slide.
    To enable manual timings on one slide, you will need to place individual sound files on each slide, created in a sound editing application such as QuickTime.

  • Moving Keynote Presentation to a Video Podcast

    I have a Keynote presentation that I would like to record with narration, manually advance slides in sync with the narration, then move the combined narrated Keynote to a video podcast where viewer can see the slides and hear the narration.
    Have tried moving it to GarageBand but it seems to throw up on the audio, won't take it in either the 'copy audio' or 'mix audio' options.
    iMovie seems a logical choice but text on the slides (which look great in Keynote) all look out of focus in iMovie, either the new one or iMovieHD. Some fonts help this situation but none look anywhere as clear as the original Keynote. Went to One on Ones and no help there.
    This does not seem like an off the wall application of Keynote to me but a logical extension for 'distance learning'. Has anyone done this successfully with text /photo slides with narration? how about slides with video clips as well?

  • How can I connect my iMac [Mavericks OS] to my TV so that I can show a Keynote presentation on the TV?

    I want to connect my iMac [Mavericks OS] to my TV so that I can show a Keynote presentation on the TV.  I have a local wireless network.  My TV is Internet accessible.

    If you do not have this option, then I would suspect your Mac does not support audio over HDMI.

    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.
