Use Apple TV 2 to give keynote presentation

Good evening everyone!
I have a situation that is slightly similar to others out there, but not enough so that I feel satisfied with their answers. I have an ATV2 and a Late 2008 MBP running 10.8.2. I want to give a presentation at my work by WIRELESSLY streaming my keynote from my MBP to my ATV2 that is connected to the projector in my presentation room via HDMI. The real kicker is that I CANNOT use the companies WiFi network as they have all peer-2-peer connections disabled for security purposes (I already tried once and IT told me that it wasn't possible). My next theory is to create an ad-hoc network from my MBP that my ATV2 can connect to and I can use airparrot to mirror my desktop and, in turn, my presentation on the projector. The issue is that whenever I create an ad-hoc network, the ATV2 cannot see it nor connect to it when I enter the SSID manually. I read someone state that I need to have internet sharing on and set to share "From ethernet" "to WiFi," but this did not work for me. My iPhone was able to see and connect to the network, but the ATV2 was not. I also read a single person state that the ATV2 cannot connect to an ad-hoc that doesn't have a connection to an ISP (outside internet connection). Since I only read this in one place during my research (and because it would confirm my defeat) I decied to post a question and see if any of you bright folks know of something that I have overlooked.
Thanks as always and I look forward to hearing from you!

Not possible. The only way to stream content from outside iTunes is through mirroring, DVD's are blocked due to copyright. Best to connect a DVD player to your TV if that is your intended purpose.

Using After Effects to create dynamic keynote presentation

Hey everyone,
I am working on a project that involves adding dynamic content to a keynote presentation - short animations that must coincide with a spoken presentation that is being given.
I am unsure on what the best way is to do this..
I was thinking of creating small movie clips that live in each frame of a keynote presentation. That way the presenter could move through the slides as he spoke and the movies would match up with what he is saying, rather than making one large movie that is paused and played as he spoke.
Does anyone know of any examples of presentations that are like this? I can't find any online.
Thanks.
Neal

I would definitely build segments into each slide so the Presenter or operator has clean, foolproof control over each segment's playback. You don't want to be fiddling with pause controls on the day.
I'd create the movie in one AE comp, with 1 second static points at the pause locations (with absolutely nothing animated at those points) so that the pauses are seamless.
From there, it's up to you.
You can render multiple Quicktime segments as a Quicktime-per-slide for the Keynote presentation.
You can render one long Quicktime, then use Quicktime Pro (or any non-linear editor) to export each segment as a Quicktime-per-slide for the Keynote presentation.
Or, you can render one long Quicktime, place it into each slide of the Keynote presentation, and define in and out points for playback on each page using the Keynote Inspector's Quicktime tab.
I use Quicktime Animation codec at 85% quality (with keyframes) for this kind of job, and have no problem playing HD 1080 files from a 7200RPM hard drive. It is far cleaner looking than H.264 or any other MPEG variants, but small enough for reliable playback.

My iPad will mirror music through my Apple TV but not my keynote presentations

My iPad will only airplay music through my apple tv keynote will not mirror. I'm kind of confused because I just mirrored in our classroom at work Friday with no issues at all. Any suggestions.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The TV shows don't sync to the Apple TV when you purchase them on your iPad, they become available in your purchased list. They probably do thye same on your iPad when you purchase on the Apple TV, but you might be looking in the wrong place.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option which is revealed in the iTunes app on your iOS device by tapping the more button at the bottom of the screen.

I created a slide show on work computer. Placed photos and movies in Media Browser. Want to use another computer (laptop) to give presentation. Do I need to copy media browser to laptop or are pictures and movies embedded in slide show and can go anywhere

I created a slide show on my work computer and placed many photos and movies in my work computer's Media Browser. Want to use another computer (laptop) to give the presentation and therefore change location of slide show. Do I need to copy the media browser to the laptop or once the pictures and movies are embedded in the original slide show, can I take it anywhere and not worry about the media browser?
I also want to optimize a movie for Keynote, so it's not too large a file. Please help.

Graphic, sound and video files are copied into the Keynote file, but make sure Keynote > Preferences - include sound and movies check box is ticked.
If you have added additional fonts they will need be changed to reflect what is on the destination machine.
If the other machine has a different Keynote version, ensure the same transitions and effects are available.

Does the Apple Digital Av adapter Stream in 1080P so that my keynote presentations look better that streaming them through apple TV?

Does the Apple Digital Av adapter Stream in 1080P so that my keynote presentations look better that streaming them through apple TV? I use Keynote and Apple TV to stream my Keynote presentations at work and the Picture does not look great and does not put the presetation in widscreen mode. Would the Apple Digital Av adapter fix that?

The size on the screen should remain, but the quality should be better.

Can I use my iPhone 5c to control my iPad keynote presentations

I teach a children's class every Sunday and I use Keynote mainly along with itunes (music). I have many slides and sometimes movies to show. I was wondering if there was a way to leave my ipad stationary and control my ipad presentation(s) with my iphone (5c)? I have the latest updates of 7. Thanks for your time, Mike

Even a blind hog can find an acorn sometimes. I upgraded to the latest verson of 7 and viola there it was. I can now use my iphone to control a Keynote presentation! I have done so time and time again and it works every time. Anway, thanks to everyone who took a peep, Mike

IPad Mini Keynote Presentations with a Projector?

I give Keynote presentations and would like to connect my ipad mini to a projector, remotely advancing the slides using my iPhone. What hardware will be required?

Hi jamiefromoxnard,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If you have deleted the application and restarted the iPad, you have already done some great troubleshooting. The next step I would suggest in this situation is a reset. The following article will explain how to reset.
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the reset doesn’t resolve the situation, you may need to restore your iPad. The following article will provide information for backing up your data and restoring the device.

Keynote presentation stuck on iPad

I used to have a lot of keynote presentations on my iCloud account. I have since deleted them all, but there is still one that shows on my iPad as if it's still updating. I cannot select it to delete it or to anything with it. I have even deleted the keynote app from my iPad and reinstalled it, but the file keeps coming back. It doesn't show up on my iPhone or on iCloud.com. Any ideas on how to get rid of it?

I see that this is a very old questions, but I just saw it this morning while looking for a solution to my own problem. After logging on to iCloud.com, I was able to delete the two presentations that seemed to be stuck on my iPhone.

How do I put a youtube video on a keynote presentation

How do I convert a youtube video into a MP4 format so I can use it in part of my Keynote presentation? Is there a Mac app for that?
iMac OSX 10.9.4

Can I Control Keynote Presentations on The iPhone FROM The iPad

Whilst I can see the joy of using the iPhone as a remote to control a Keynote presentation on the iPad but it seems wholly illogical that when showing a presentation through a projector or large TV screen I can't use the iPad to control a Keynote presentation on the iPhone. It's a much easier platform to use, especially when sitting down, and would be easier to read the presenter's notes.
I know that techincally this can be done, I have already tried it, but the Keynote remote app seems to be only for the iPhone, which makes it too small for the iPad, plus it doesn't display presenter's notes.
Has anyone else come across this and if so, is there an answer out there?
Cheers

You don't.
There is no infrared receiver on the iPhone.

Can I present a keynote presentation using airplay and Apple TV? How do I set up airplay ?

Can I present a keynote presentation using airplay and Apple TV? How do I set up airplay ?

Hi Andy,
You can do this reasonably easily.
First up you need to think about how you are going to drive the TV- Your iMac could do it, but a laptop would be easier if you can access one.
Second you need to look at the screen inputs. If it is a flat screen TV it is likely to have at least a VGA connection which you should have a connector to 'out of the box' and it will work much like connecting your mac to a projector would.
If not you'll probably need a connector for your mac that outputs composite (a single RCA connector) or S-Video to connect. You'll need to do this connection and find out the resolution the display supports before the big day (I live in a country with PAL which typically is 720x576). Make the Keynote presso the same resolution and you should be all good. A test drive is essential!
Here's a typical adapter from the Apple Store
http://store.apple.com/us/product/M9267G/A?fnode=MTY1NDA5OQ&mco=MjE0NTg4NQ
Just as a thought- you could just burn a DVD with the images- it's pretty simple to set up (with transitions) a photo library in iDVD, though a little more tricky if you need the images to appear at certain times.

Keynote presentations when using wireless libratone zipp speaker there is a 2sec delay before any slide containing video/audio plays - tried connection through apple TV still the same. Any ideas?

Thanks Gary, I think I should have mentioned that I have wired my other speakers and it works fine.
I just wanted to go wireless when presenting in front of class, simply to avoid trailing wires from the macbook which I position in front of me on a desk next to the projector and the speakers are behind me next to the screen.
I have struggled to find a solution, and reading through other discussions it is a problem that perhaps only Apple can solve.
I hope the new 'Yosemite' will resolve the problem.
Thank you once again for your reply.

Using small iOS device to give presentations?

I am considering buying a refurbished iPod Touch from Apple to (1: replace my aging iPod, (2: allow mobile access to the internet, and (3: to facilitate delivery of business presentations while on-the-road. To wit:
As you can see from the listings below, I have access to useful hardware and software. I am writing this to seek advice on how to leverage these tools to give business (and personal) presentations while I'm on-the-road and may (or may not) be carrying hardware with me. If I'm forced to travel light, I was wondering if simply taking a thumb drive and/or using my iCloud account may be enough.
I work for a small construction business that does projects in eight surrounding counties. I work as a "Producer", which means I'm both an office manager (writing up contracts and job estimates, arranging business with customers, contractors and suppliers over-the-phone) and a project manager (working with those same business contacts in-person on remote project sites). I am also applying for work outside of our business, and want to be able to use visual aids if/when necessary to illustrate what I do during an interview.
I recently started taking a Lynda.com course on "Setting Up Your Mobile Office to Work from Anywhere", and it got me to thinking about how I could use iCloud and Apple's iWork apps to create business presentations that could be played in a variety of portable scenarios. My goal is to be able to travel light and still be able to make presentations to individuals or groups.

Epson EX7200 projector, with USB thumb-drive port (for JPEG presentations), VGA port, and HDMI port.
Scenario #1: If I prepared a Keynote presentation on my iMac and transferred it via WiFi or thumb drive to the old MacBook, do I need to copy just a single Keynote file over and that's it? No attached files or folders with files in them?
Scenario #2: I have successfully, in the past, used the Epson projector and a thumb drive loaded with photos and also a USB camera card reader with an SD card attached to show simple JPEG photo slideshows. If I wanted to just use the Epson's USB port to show Keynote slideshows, they would have to be stored in folders as JPEG files. How easy is this to prepare with Keynote? Are there any pointers available on designing a useful workflow for preparing such slideshows without a lot of fuss?
Scenario #3: Forget the projector; too much bulk. If I had just a small iOS device like an iPod touch, and I wanted to plug into someone else's projector (or if I wanted to just show a slideshow of images to one person with no projector) what do I need to be prepared for, hardware-wise? What do I need to do with Keynote, both on the iMac for production and on the iOS device to make it look right?
Scenario #4: Let's say I'm going to carry everything on a USB thumb drive as a backup. What is the best way to set it up to play on someone else's hardware? (I assume three tiers of compatibility: I do network with Mac/iOS users, so Tier #1 would be Apple compatibility with Keynote. Tier #2 would be general compatibility with Microsoft Office 2003/4 for pre-XML file formats. I guess that Tier #3 would be general-purpose PDF files, or maybe the JPEG file approach with thumb drive ports on projectors.) If I'm doing Tier #1 and I'm plugging my thumb drive into someone else's MacBook, are there any pointers to avoid font conflicts or other issues? If I'm doing Tier #1 and I'm borrowing someone else's iPad to show a slideshow, how do I get the files off of a thumb drive to show on the iPad?
Scenario #5: ** iCloud ** Let's say I'm traveling VERY light, and I want to give a presentation that's stored on my Apple iCloud account. How can I organize files and folders so that Tier #1, #2 and #3 files are available (assuming I have an internet connection) so I can play a presentation off someone else's hardware, be it a tablet or laptop. Is there anything I should know about how to prepare this and how to reliably be able to log-in and access my iCloud files? Are my iWork 2009 apps going to function in preparing and saving presentation files with my iCloud account?
Scenario #6: Scenario #6 is Scenario #5, but substituting another service instead of iCloud, like maybe Google Drive. Is there any way to set up an account with files so I can reliably be able to access said files for a presentation?

- For #1 post in the iWorks for Mac form. My only concern is the older version of Keynote on the MacBook reading the files from the newer version of Keynote used to create the presentation.
- For #2 it depends upon the projector. Form you description, the projector can only read/present photos on a thumb drive. Keynote will do nothing for that.
- For #3 depending upon the model iPod you can get an adopter cable that connect to projector/TV

You can post in the iWoks for iOS forum for more help. Note that some feature in Keynoted prepared on a Mac will not oresent exactly like made when present in Keynote on an iOS device
- For #4 post in the iWorks for Mac forum
- For # 5 post in the iWorks for iOS forum
- For #6 posting in a Google forum may be best

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.

Does anyone know how to use ATV with a keynote presentation?

Does anyone know how to use ATV with a keynote presentation? Is it possible?
Thanks.

Yes use Quicktime. Try to create a presentation that uses a widescreen aspect 1280 x 720 would be good, then export it at full quality which should give you a movie of 720p at 24 fps and should be just fine for the tv, if you have any problems with exporting it this way, you could try manual settings or simply run the export you made at full quality through itunes using advanced/create an Apple tv version.
