Hi Peta,
I’m going to be with a client until later this morning, I’ll try to get back to
you later.
But quickly:
When you open the PowerPoint Slide Presentation in Keynote’09 does it play
through correctly? … slides at the correct speed, and with Audio (soundtrack)?
Also In Menu bar, View > Show Inspector - Under Document - Presentation: is it
self playing or what?
“
- Audio: does it show a soundtrack here
Delay: what does it have here?
Got to rush out now, I’ll get back to you when possible.
Cheers,
Ronni
