Transitions reset when Keynote is 'hidden' mid-presentation

I often need to hide Keynote midway through a presentation to open another app. I used the h key in Keynote 08 and everything worked fine, but since I upgraded to '09 every time I hide a presentation, it resets to the beginning of that slide I was on and I have to go through all the transitions on the slide again. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

Not especially elegant, but it works...
Since you're using OS X Leopard, employ Spaces to switch into your other application in a different space (e.g., control+3 switches to space 3 while the Keynote is running -- the action will pause the presentation, even if it's in the middle of a build or transition). When you want to return to your Keynote, use either the command+tab keyboard shortcut, or click on Keynote in the Dock to resume seamlessly where the presentation was interrupted.

When keynote presentation is emailed as a keynote file, the original sizing of texts and slide layout is incongruent with the original. Text is written over text. Some text is not included on the slide. The sizing done in the original creation isn't maint

When keynote presentation is sent via email as a keynote file, original sizing and spacing on slide is not retained in the email. Some words are not fitted onto the slide, others words are written over each other. The effort to create the optimal layout on the original is not retained. Please offer your insights into my errors. Thanks in advance.

Wauw... I'm always impressed by how bad Microsoft can answer these questions!
Dear Martin - Now let me do it short:
Adding text-shadow to p-tags (especially) in IE10, and you want to positioning your shadow by ex. 1px 1px 1px rgba(255, 255, 255, .5); it cuts the text (or make some part of your text invisible!). The issue is the blur-value! Set the blur-value to 0 or 5
- not in between, because it then starts cutting your text (has something to do with the combination of the lengths and the size of the blur-size, and probably also the size of your text)!
Instead of the example I just gave you, try this: text-shadow: 0px 1px 0px rgba(255, 255, 255, .5);
And Microsoft - please try and make an effort when people are writing you with bugs or issues in IE... You must know that your browser (all versions) has been and still are the ones with most bugs! If you wanna learn about the CSS-terms, you can go look
at http://www.w3schools.com/css/ or try Google it ;O)

When I open a powerpoint presentation in Keynote I only see the first 8 slides

When I open a powerpoint presentation in Keynote I only see the first 8 slides. Any ideas?

Curious.
If I had this problem I would try the followinng:
open the PPt file in PowerPoint (or Open Office for Mac, which is a free and reliable option to MS Office) save it as a PPt file and open in Keynote
open in PPt or Open Office, save all the slides as individual TIFF files and bring those into Keynote ( builds would not work on individual text or objects on a slide but at least you have the content)
Open Office

Do all animations and features of Keynote save as PowerPoint Presentations and are all of the animations and features then useable on a PC in the .ppt format, will it work properly?

I want to buy a Macbook Pro, but i need to know the scale of compatability between my Microsoft products and my soon to be apple products, proffessional presentations are vital for what i want, therefore compatability if key if i am to purchase a Mac. Thank you.

Not all of the animations and features in Keynote will transition into Powerpoint. Most of the basic ones do - but not the advanced. I had this issue when I first switched over to Mac, so to overcome this, I do two things:
I figured out which animations and transitions work in both Keynote and Powerpoint and used them. It's kind of a pain when I can't use the awesome Keynote animations, however, Keynote is still much easier and intuitive to work in than Powerpoint.
I sometimes export my Keynote presentations to a Quicktime movie (.mov). Apple makes it very simple to export to this format; which can then be accessed on both a Mac and PC and all of the transitions and effects remain as they are in Keynote.
I hope that helps.

Switching presentations mid presentation

Hello all -- i'm trying to run 4 slides in a 10 minute loop before the main presentation and am wondering if there is anyway to do this within keynote. I'm trying to avoid the desktop picture when swapping from the initial presentation to the actual show. I do not believe the epson projector has a black screen mode, so, unfortunately, that's out. Let me know if you guys have any thoughts -- thanks!
jonah

To switch to the main presentation, you should put a hyperlink on to it on each of the four slides of your looping presentation. The hyperlink can be transparent (just set the fill and stroke of the hyperlink object to "none"), and can even cover the whole slide (so you don't have to locate it with the cursor). If you make sure that the main presentation is open when you start the looping presentation, then the switch will be very fast.

Transitions toast in keynote 3?

Is it true that in keynote 3 that all transitions diapear when exporting to flash?
I was think of upgrading, but my transitions work in keynote 2 when exporting to flash.

it's true...though in a pinch you could do a save as on your project and save back to K2, then open with K2 and export from there. Not sure what might get broken, but it's a good bet photos masked with a shape would break.

Keynote Skin for iOS presentations

Hi Folks
There is one thing that bothers me every time that I build a keynote presentation and send it to my iPad. As you all may know, there are several desktop keynote features that gets lost on translation.
If I look harder, I will probably find some guideline that tells me what feature I should and should not use to import my presentations to iPad. However, I think it would be much easier if Apple had some kind of skin selector or presentation template that would turn the desktop keynote into a mobile presentation builder. This way, the user would only see the features and transitions that can be properly imported to mobile keynote.
This would be very helpful. This way I'd not spend a lot of time preparing a presentation just to find out that all the hard work is lost in translation and I have to customize it all over again for iPad presentation.
Would this make sense? Is there any current solution for this that I'm not aware of?
Thanks
-Luciano

I would check with the [iPad Keynote forum|http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1369], they may be able to help you better as we don't all have an iPad in this forum.
Here is the link to [provide feedback on Keynote|http://www.apple.com/feedback/keynote.html] if you want Apple to include this feature.

Keynote does not load presentations

I can't get Keynote to load the presentations that are in my iCloud drive. I know they are there, because I can see them on my Mac.
When I change the Keynote settings to use iCloud, the setting does not stick.
Pages and Numbers DO use iCloud.
I'm using iOS 8.2 on an iPad Air v1. I've restarted, tried deleting and reinstalling Keynote, but the problem continues.
Any advice?

There are two options, try option 1 first if that does not work use option 2:
1 - a custom repair for Keynote 6.1
Try this repair for iWork applications, its sorted out many similar problems in the past
ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
1 delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote by using Appcleaner from Mac Update to      do this, its freeware
2 restart the Mac;   Apple menu > restart
3 immediately after the start chime, press the shift key until you see the Apple symbol.
         let it fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
4 when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and      click repair disc permissions
5 when complete, restart the Mac normally
6 install Keynote from the Mac App Store
Please report back to let us know if this helped.
2 - Clean install Mavericks by      back up all your work and user files, repartition the hard drive,
then re-install Mavericks
To reinstall OS X, you must be connected to the Internet
Choose Apple menu > Restart. Once your Mac restarts (and the gray screen appears), hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys.
If you’re not connected to the Internet, choose a network from the Wi-Fi menu (in the top-right corner of the screen).
Select Disk Utility, then click Continue.
Select your startup disk on the left, then click the Erase tab.
Choose Mac OS Extended (Journaled) from the Format menu, enter a name, then click Erase.
After the disk is erased, choose Disk Utility > Quit Disk Utility.
Select Reinstall OS X, click Continue, then follow the onscreen instructions.

My classic is stuck on a blank screen and it won't connect to any device or reset when I hold the menu and center buttons. Any ideas what's up and how to fix it?

I know click hold on and off then hold the menu and center button until the apple logo appears. I have tried this so many times and my iPod Classic is still unresponsive! I've tried plugging my iPod into my Mac, my wall charger, my ihome, everything, but nothing works. It won't connect to iTunes to restore or anything. I've tried leaving it unplugged long enough to let the battery die and then tried plugging it in, a method I've utilized successfully with other iPods but that didn't work either. I really just starting to lose faith in the quality of this product. The first classic I bought didn't work at all and I had to exchange it. This one I bought to replace my 5 year old nano and it hasn't even lasted 7 months! Somebody please offer me a solution and assure me that I didn't waste $250 on a crap piece of technology. I'm desperate!

Although you say you have let the battery drain, was it for long enough? Since nothing else that you've tried so far has worked, I suggest that you leave the iPod unplugged for at least four days, preferably a week. That way, if something is stopping the iPod from turning the screen on, then whatever it is will drain the battrey. However, since the screen isn't on, that may take longer than if the screen was on.
Then, after that time, plug the iPod into a power source and leave it alone for at least thirty minutes. Only after thirty minutes will it show any signs of life, but you should leave it until it is fully charged before trying to use it.
If you get to this stage, the fact that the battery has drained will cause the iPod to reset when it springs back to life.
Let us know how you get on.

On Windows Server 2008, local account passwords are reset when the server is rebooted. Why, and how do we fix?

We are running a commercial application on a Windows 2008 Server. After reboot, we cannot access the application because two services fail to start. The reason they fail to start is that the passwords to the local user accounts tied to those services have
either been deleted or reset to a different value. In order to restart the application, we must reset the passwords of these two local accounts, then stop and restart all the application's services. According to the application's maker, the accounts
must be local.
My colleague believes the passwords are being deleted or reset as a result of a global domain policy. Is this likely?
Assuming my colleague is correct, is there anything we can do locally to prevent these passwords from being deleted or reset when the server reboots? If not, what is the most granular change we can ask our AD adminstrators to make to the policy, so
that these local accounts are not touched at reboot.
Thanks.

Hello,
have you configured the accounts to have the permission "Log on as a service"? I have seen that this is not given to the account and therefore the service fails to start.
Best regards

Palm TX does a soft reset when I tap on memos

I am new to posting on this forum. My Palm TX does a soft reset when I tap on memos or push the button I have set to memos. I also have had several soft resets occur after tuning the my palm on from the On/Off button. I have had Palms for the last 10 years. Never had this problem. The only problem I had was the On/Off button on The TX failed as a result this is my 3rd TX in the last 4 years. Any suggestions welcome. I was behind on syncing and my last sync was done about 1 week before this problem occurred. I really do not want to do a hard reset. This problem has been going on for a month. Can I just do an unistall/reinstall without loosing any info?
Post relates to: Palm TX

This question has been asked and answered many times here... Somehow, the memos database has become corrupt on the device. There are two ways to fix this:
1. First, open Palm Desktop and go up to Tools/Options/Tools Tab and click the Check Records button. Let it look for corrupt records, and if none are found then a simple fix is to set your HotSync Manager setting for the Memos app to "Desktop overwrites Handheld" for one operation.
If using Palm Desktop 4.x, change the conduit here: Click on your HotSync Manager icon in the tool tray, and select "Custom". Make sure your HotSync Account name is showing in the top window, then highlight the Memos app and click the "Change" button. Click the selection for "Desktop Overwrites Handheld" and click "Done". (DO NOT select the "Set as Default" box!) Now do a HotSync. Since you didn't select "Set As Default" it will only do the overwrite for one operation, then default back to "Synchronize".
If using Palm Desktop 6.2.x, change the conduit here: Click on the HotSync Manager icon in the tool tray, and select "Settings". Make sure your HotSync Account name is showing in the top center window, then click the "Applications" link in the left column. Check the box for "Show Details", Highlight the application you wish to change, then click the "Configure" button. Click the bullet for "Desktop Overwrites Handheld" and DO NOT select the "Set as Default" box. Now do a HotSync. Since you didn't select "Set As Default" it will only do the overwrite for one operation, then default back to "Synchronize".
Check to see if the HotSync completes without errors, and your Memos application is back to normal.
2. If the above does not fix the problem, then download and install "DBFixit" from Pimlico Software: http://www.pimlicosoftware.com/dbfixit.htm The program will search your device for errors, and fix some for free. Others may require the purchase of a registration code, with the funds going to an animal rescue non-profit (Gorilla Haven).

Ipod resets when selecting certain mp3 files

my ipod video 5th generation resets when selecting certain mp3 files ???? As well as certain video podcasts . Whats the deal anyone ?

Is Apple working on a "real" fix for this bug or do we have to live with limited use of our iPod resources?
No one on here really knows (the creators of the programs and software do not visit the Discussions), but Apple could possibly provide a fix in the future. It may not be very "high on their list" of iPod feedback requests of new features, and bug fixes, though, since this isn't an incredibly common problem.
If you'd like to add the the voices and tell Apple about this issue, let them know here on their feedback form: iPod Feedback
