Hello mmp10000,


It sounds like you are wanting to use the Keynote Remote on your iPhone 5 to control a presentation on your iPad 2 but they don't seem to connect.


Please make sure you are using all the correct versions and they are on the same Wi-Fi network.

Use Keynote Remote on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Link Keynote Remote to another iOS device

Use these steps to link your remote device to another iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

  1. Turn on Wi-Fi on both of your devices.

    If you're using Keynote for iOS 2.5 or later and both of your iOS devices have a Lightning connector, your devices don't have to be connected to a specific Wi-Fi network. You can also use Bluetooth to connect your devices.*

    If you're using an earlier version of Keynote on either device, or if either device has a dock connector (iPhone 4s, iPad 2 and iPad 3rd Generation), make sure that they're both connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

    Keynote Remote doesn't work over a network hosted by a Mac with Internet Sharing, or a network hosted by an iOS device using Personal Hotspot.
  2. On the device you're using for your presentation, open your Keynote presentation.
  3. Tap the Tools icon in the toolbar.
  4. Tap Presentation Tools.
  5. Tap Allow Remote Control.
  6. Turn on Enable Remotes.
  7. On the device you want to use as a remote, open the Keynote app.
  8. Tap the Keynote Remote icon in the toolbar of the presentation manager. If you're in a presentation, tap Presentations in the toolbar to open the presentation manager. In portrait orientations on smaller devices, tap the User uploaded file icon.
  9. If this is the first attempt to link to this Keynote Remote, tap Continue. Otherwise, tap the Devices button then tap Add a Device.
  10. On the device displaying the presentation, next to the name of the device you're using as a remote, tap Link. The device name appears in the Allow Remote Control menu.
  11. Compare the four digit passcode that appears on the presentation device to the passcode that appears on the remote device. If match, tap Confirm.
  12. On the presentation device, tap Done to return to the presentation.
  13. To control the slideshow on the presentation device, tap Play on the controlling device.

Learn how to use Keynote Remote after you link it in Use Keynote Remote below.

If the play button on your remote device doesn't respond, make sure you have turned on remotes on the remote device by following steps 2–6 above on that device.

Use Keynote Remote with Bluetooth

*If you can't connect to Wi-Fi, you can use Keynote Remote with Bluetooth to control your Keynote slideshow from one iOS device to another (but not from a Mac). Slides might take longer to appear on Keynote Remote when connected using Bluetooth. If you use iOS 7 on your remote device, you can't use it to control a presentation over Bluetooth on a device using iOS 8 or later.

Take care.
