add animation to objects in keynote after recording audio

I have narrated my Keynote presentation and would now like to add some animated objects to the first slide.

I don't transition to the second slide until 48 seconds into the narration.

However, when I added the animated objects to the first slide I lost all of the narration. (I have a back-up in time machine so no worries).

Does anyone know if there is a way to make this change to my presentation?

Regards

If you make any changes to an exiting recorded slideshow that has a recorded narration, for example; adding animations or deleting or adding slides, the timings of the recorded slideshow will be changed and the narration will be out of sync with the images.

You will need to re-do the Record Slideshow:

clear the recording (Play > Clear Recording) then re-record the narration again

Thanks Gary,

I was hoping for a work around.

Like, extracting the narration as an audio file and then adding it as the soundtrack for the revised presentation, but I couldn’t figure out how to extract the audio.

For now, I’ve exported the old presentation as a movie, then opened in iMovie and added the extra animation there.

thanks again for your help.

Bill
