How Link Keynote Remote on iPad to Mac?
Keynote Mavens,
According to Apple's documentation, IOS Keynote Remote (iPhone, iPod or iPad) will connect with Keynote on a Mac.
For example (from Using Keynote Remote at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3325):
Select the checkbox next to Enable iPhone and iPod touch Remotes. (This also enables iPad remotes).
While my iPhone Pairs in ~250 milliseconds via Bluetooth with my iMac...neither my iPad 2 nor iPad Mini Pairs.
Pairing between an iPad and iMac seems to almost work:
- When attempting to Pair either iPad, Keynote Remote | Settings | New Link will display a 4 digit code.
- Keynote on the iMac | Preferences | Remote displays a dialogue box which (when "New Keynote Link..." is touched on the iPad) lists the applicable device and asks for the 4 digit code.
- When the 4 digit code is entered, Keynote on the iMac displays a message (forever...I've let it run over 3 minutes) "Verifying remote passcode."
Your thoughts? Is there a way to use Keynote Remote via Bluetooth Pairing on an iPad with an iMac?
Thanks!
