List of deleted features in Keynote '13

Ditto.

In the wrong font.

Without my transition or build,

And without a picture embedded behind my template.

Unfortunately, this has become a big issue for those of us who use these applications professionally. It runs along the lines of what Apple did with Final Cut Pro some years ago. I'm not sure how a company, with literally billions of dollars to work with, can't seem to hire people who will be more in-touch with their user base. Intentionally or otherwise, Apple continues to send the, not to subtle message, that a broader base of appeal is acceptable at the expense of its loyal (even professional) customers. This latest 'admission' is certainly a step in the right direction. But the rapid restoration of these applications to their full-functionality will express far more sincerity than a technical bulletin.

Apparently interactive QuickTimes can still be enjoyed by those using PCs. So PC users and non-Mavericks adopters still enjoy full function. Only Mavericks adopters are penalized.

Way to go, Apple!

I was not able to import a Quicktime video with an alpha channel today. That's what brought me to this forum. I was wondering if there was a fix that I wasn't seeing. I guess not. Other than that, my other favorite missing piece is the blur picture frame. I used that a lot to blend photos into backgrounds.

The only saving grace to this new keynote is the "Export to Keynote 09" feature. You gotta wonder if they didn't know they were going to screw up a lot of presentations.

Another oddity (Keynote 13 seems to have a lot of trouble with transparencies) is that if you make a transparent shape and lay it over other images, you can't click the images in the back, even in the transparent section. You have to 'arrange' the transparent shape to the back. This might not seem like anything important, but I used to use shapes as guidelines for specific projects, like if I was creating a book cover or a wide-screen video. Not I can't see those guidelines. Anybody have a suggestion for a fix?

In the previous version of Keynote, I was able to easily paste Keynote content (words, shapes, charts) into Photoshop CS6 & Illustrator CS6 as vector objects, of which the elements could be independently manipulated by releasing the clipping mask.

However, with Keynote 6.0, it appears the content mentioned above pastes into CS6 software as flat .tiff files with no option to convert to a vector smart object? Is there a way to force a vector object placement or does this new Keynote version not allow (and if so why eliminate such a convenient function as vector smart objects)?

Any suggestions? I'm hoping this feature will be added back in & included with Apples next release. Thanks for the help.

You'll have to print in order to get a PDF. I need to get home to spell out the details as it took a little while.to figure out.

I don't get it. Please clarify intent/purpose.

Totally app zap 6 and reinstall 5 but even then, if you have run a presentation in 6, it will be stuffed. I had to go to my back up HD and reinstall everything to make it work.

I figured out how to run my Keynote5.3 interactive presentations in Quicktime an on Mavericks: Install Quicktime 7.

It works for me!

If you have Quicktime exports of your interactive Keynote 09's that you use and share or present, the old Quicktime 7 is your answer.

(NOTE: the new Keynote v.06 2013 that just came out does NOT have the capability to export interactive work to Quicktime. It only exports as a goofy, simple movie. The Quicktime 7 solution is for those wanting to use their Keynote-to-Quicktime exports from Keynote v5.3 2009 on their OS X Mavericks Macs.)

Keynote interactive Quicktime exports still work on Quicktime for Windows, but not on the latest OS X: Quicktime for Mavericks.

As many know, Quicktime exports of interactive Keynotes past and present no longer work like a "Keynote player" in Mavericks' new Quicktime. Your manual advances and buttons no longer do anything, and instead your Keynote just runs like a foolish movie.

Well, I downloaded and installed the old Quicktime 7 in Mavericks, and the installer puts it back in the utilities folder.

Right click your Keynote-to-Quicktime export, and the interactive presentation works like always and looks great.

• So, if you were to take your Keynote-to-Quicktime export to another Mavericks computer, you'd need to bring an installer for Quicktime 7 too. Not great, but...
• Bring your Keynote-to-Quicktime export to a Windows computer with Quicktime, it works perfectly, as always.
• Sending your Keynote-to-Quicktime exports to others in some way? --Then you'd better send a "Read Me" text that says it will only work correctly on Mavericks by installing Quicktime 7. And, maybe send them a link to the Quicktime 7 downloads site: http://support.apple.com/downloads/#quicktime

It'd be better if Apple fixed Mavericks Quicktime, but this will do for now. My years of Keynote exports work just as they always have!

Hope this helps some of you.

«Place origin at center of ruler» is not available in apple keynote 6. Hopefully coming soon.

Apple has granted us all license to hope that our favorite stripped feature will be added soon. Genius, really.

I learned that when you upgraded to Keynote 6, it left Keynote 5 on your computer under Iwork/Applications. I was told that Apple is in the process of integrating Keynote 5 features into 6, but 6 is still Beta.

The media option doesn't open up on the side and takes forever to load. In addition, I cannot search for media files either. I have thousands of pictures, am I supposed to scroll forever to find the one I'm looking for. I don't have time to organize them in folders.😠
