Keynote and ProPresenter

So, I run weekly presentations using both propresenter and keynote. After upgradeing to Mavericks, but still using keynote 09 and propresenter, everything was fine. While running propresenter, and projecting the propresenter presentation to a secondary moniter, I would hit "play" on keynote 09 and it would show up on the secondary monitor just fine. When I would end the slide show, pro presenter would still be up and running on the secondary display.


When I upgraded to Keynote 6.0, things changed. now when I hit play when running propresenter I cannot get the keynote slideshow to the second monitor. When I hit "x" on my keyboard I can toggle on the primary display between the presentation and the presentor display. When Propresenter is not displaying to the secondary monitor keynote 6.0 is able to display on the secondary monitor. There must be something keeping keynote 6.0 from displaying on a secondary moniter when something else is also using it, even though keynote 09 does that just fine. I have tried lots of combinations under the apple system preferences/mission control, and have not had any luck yet.

I had this issue as well.


In Pro-Presenter, go to preferences, and then display preferences, and unselect the checkmark in the Display at Top Most Window Layer. Now Keynote will be able to be at that top layer and when you quit it will leave the Pro-Presenter display up.


Seems like we have identical uses in our services.
