Q: Are there no "presenter Notes" preferences in Keynote 6.2?

In Keynote Preferences there is no longer an icon for Presenter Notes.  How are those preference set?

MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7.5)

    What exactly are you looking to set?  If you go to Play > Rehearse Slide Show, there's a little icon with three boxes in it and if you click that, you can choose things like whether to display the timer, next slide, clock, etc.  Hope that helps.

    Thanks for this Bosley60.  One more question.  Do you know if there is a way to scroll the presenter notes remotely?

     

    I have downloade the new ios app for Keynote remote nd it doesn't seem to have the capability to scroll the notes.  I also have a few other remotes which I have used in the past and same thing.

     

    Thanks for any help

    I haven't used that feature yet but it looks like you need to have Keynote on both your iPhone/iPad/iPod and on your Mac.  Maybe this will help?

     

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6112  There's also instructions there if you have the older Keynote Remote standalone app.

     

    Hope this helps you!

    Thanks again.  I have the latest version on both the MacBook Air and the iPhone 5 and I don't find anyway to do it.  Which is a bit of a drag because you have a remote so that you can be away from the computer but if your text is more than fits on a single page you must walk to the computer to scroll.

     

    Best

    The remote function only provides for next and previous slide or build, there are no other functions at present. Use a wifi mouse with ascroll wheel to scroll the presenter notes up and down.
