What do I have to do in creating a Keynote presentation on my MAC so that when I send it to my iPad, I don't have to re-do the presentation all over again as the fonts have changed, sizing has changed and everything is basically a mess?

I have downloaded many of my previous Keynote presentation into my new ipad mini and not ONE has opened properly

Rather defeats the purpose of icloud, synching, Keynote on IOS etc doesn't it?

Any tips anyone?

Cheers

Thanks for this Gary. Much appreciated. Will help with future ones.

Still a bit like using keynote in 'safe mode' and very limiting.

If anyone produces an 'auto convert' app that will save me the work of fixing existing presentations slide by slide, I'm buying it :-)

Thanks again

The idea behind the most recent issue, version 6, (when Apple sorts out the mess they made of it) is to unify the file type so it can be created and played on either the iPad or Mac without issues.

Can't wait for this.

I would be good to get back to the ethos of "It just works" that we all knew and loved :-)
