How to export a Self Contained Keynote project

How to export a Self Contained Keynote project?

A "self contained" Keynote file includes all the content needed to make the presentation, within the Keynote file; photography, graphics, sound and video files.

To enable this, ensure the following is set: Keynote > Preferences > General: select the option to Copy Audio and Movies into document

I use to be able to export a Self Contained Keynote project

The "Export" function saves the Keynote presentation in a different filetype; PDF, Quicktime, PowerPoint or image formats (File > Export > )

control either with a mouse or using the arrow keys on the keyboard.

Either click the Play button (Play > Play Slideshow - keyboard command is: alt command P)

or set automatically play on Open: Inspector > Document > and select the option for: Automatically play on Open

So What happened? WHY would apple take away that feature?

Automatically Play on Open has been available in every version of Keynote, it has not been removed in the current version.

Gary, I think what's missing is the ability to create self-contained Keynote project that is totally self-contained, i.e. they don't need the Keynote app at the receiving end to make it work. Just double-click the package and it runs.

I know Powerpoint could do this, at one point.

Keynote is the only software that can open Keynote files. On a Mac, Keynote has been supplied free with all new Macs for a number of years and most Mac users have Keynote available.

A number of presentation applications have an export function that add a "stand alone player" when exported, this is what PowerPoint did as does Flash, Boinx, Scala and others.

Mac, Linux, Chrome and Windows users can view a presentation created in Keynote as Quicktime, html, PDF or PowerPoint, all of which can play back natively without purchasing additional software.
