Q: how do I play Keynote slide show on apple tv

First time I'm using Keynote (or any kind of slide presentation) for my Mom's 90th birthday party and when I click on Computers via my Apple TV, screen tells me to access my iTunes Library, but Keynote isn't in my iTunes Library and I don't know how, or even if, I can get it open through my iTunes Library.  Any help out there?  Mom's 90th is on Sunday so would appreciate help soonest.  Thanks, Edie P.

    Greetings Edieplummer,

     

    After reviewing your post, it sounds like you want to mirror the Mac screen to an Apple TV. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

     

    Use AirPlay to see your Mac screen on an HDTV - Apple Support

    To start using an AirPlay display:

     

    • Click the AirPlay icon  AirPlay icon in the menu bar, then choose the name of an Apple TV under "Connect To AirPlay Display." The icon is blue when your Mac is using an AirPlay display.

     

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

    Take care,

    Mario

    Thanks so much for your assistance - I was able to "mirror" my slide show on my television and it was a big hit.  I did have problems getting the music to play on my TV; for some reason it played on my Mac but wouldn't come through on the TV.  After a really ugly temper tantrum and some paper throwing by me my nephew found the solution:  take the TV off "mute"!  Gotta love the Apple Community - you're always there when I need you.
