I want to open a .ppt presentation that contains music and video. I'm on a new 27" iMac with Big Sur.

Make a keynote file uneditable, in anyway possible, cause I have some movie clips in some slides. Is there anyway to make an uneditable keynote presentation file where is not editable? I know you can make a quicktime version of it but I was looking for a way to keep it in keynote format. Something like a .pps file in the equivalent MS app. But I thought the best way to make a .pps style presentation was play the keynote, do a video screen recording with SHIFT+COMMAND+5 and save the resulting video. Or Second option is to move the whole thing off to the equal MS windows app, save it in a .pps format. But would it run on a MAC keynote app? I don't know, but worth a try and will post updates as soon as I have tried the MS.pps format. Thanks and Regards.

Keynote - how to remove music file from presentation Instruction Guide indicates: Click to select the video or audio on the slide. In the Format sidebar, click the Movie, Audio, or Web Video tab at the top of the sidebar. Click Replace. Select a video or audio file, then click Open. I seem to be missing the Movie/Audio or Web Video tab at the top of the sidebar. See image: If I go to the document tab, I can see the music file but I am unable to delete it. I tried to add: Movie/Audio or Web Video tab to the menu bar but these options are not available. I've tried saving my presentation without music to start over, but the music stays imbedded. I have Keynote 12.1 Any ideas? I am very frustrated :(

Yup Keynote will open and edit it just fine. Keynote should be preinstalled on your Mac.

It shows the slides without the original timings and without the music and video. Both music and video are in separate files.

What happens when you hit the play button?

Are you sure the music and video are in the .ppt? sometimes they are just links.

If not, it is free on the app store.

Yes it opens the presentation but I could not see how to get it to play the music and the video. Am I asking for too much?
