4 Ways To Present From Mac Keynote Over Zoom

macmost.com/e-... Showing a Keynote presentation over Zoom can easily become a mess with the audience seeing your document window and other things on your screen. You can use Zoom's ability to share a window and Keynote's new ability to present in a window to simplify things. But the best way to present is to use Keynote Live and let Zoom handle the video and audio while Keynote Live shows the presentation.

Fantastic and useful presentation with all the keynote and zoom options. Nicely done Gary.

[@eburgwedel]

Very helpful, Gary, thank you! not sure when the feature came out, but the latest Zoom can use a Keynote presentation as a virtual background in high-resolution. It doesn’t allow for animations but the presentation works smoothly while the presenters image is at the bottom right. Combine it with a green screen, and you are set.

[@GregDBasham]

Yes, I stumbled on this after watching the video and it's my lifesaver as I have to record in Zoom and ship it to others for evaluation. I found the Beta by going Share > Advanced. Also, I just had to figure out that I had to click "Hide Self View" or was on the screen twice.

[@kevoblivion]

Well done, good info, even if it's clarifying that I can't do what I had in mind. I'd like to share a Keynote presentation via Zoom, while seeing my presenter notes on my second monitor (easy enough) but I'd also like a small video window of myself in the lower corner. Like the final appearance of your video. Is there a way to share my presentation with my talking head in the lower corner, and my presenter notes on my second monitor?

[@macmost]

It is up to the people watching on Zoom where your camera video appears. If you want full control., maybe broadcasting over KZbin or something like that using OBS is more what you want.

[@kevoblivion]

Hi Gary, Very clear tutorials. I am trying to bring a virtual presentation on Keynote to Zoom. I show a series of videos and discuss with the audience, stills too. Show a video, discuss, and so on. But I ran into a BIG problem. Zoom crashes. I've searched all kinds of solutions without solving the issue. You. I spoke with senior techs at Keynote and Zoom, but no one could solve the problem. So I'm coming back to the expert. Any ideas would be so appreciated. Many thanks.

[@macmost]

Go to System Preferences, Keyboard, Keyboard, Modifier Keys to adjust. But why not just use the Mac keyboard?

[@hosseinnaeimabadi113]

i just loved your accent guy. perfect. but I was looking for the answer of how can I see my presenter note and play the slides at the same time?

[@macmost]

Do you mean over Zoom? Choose Play, In Window. Then when you play the presentation it is in one window, and your notes are in another. Just show the presentation window over Zoom and the other one is just for you.

[@dripleshah]

This was exactly what i was looking for Man. Thank you so much god bless for the great working.

Thanks Gary !

[@mitchellrose4985]

Thanks, Gary. I've got a question maybe you can help me with. If I'm "sharing" a Keynote presentation over Zoom and there's a webpage I want to show embedded in a slide, when I click it it'll open up the web browser. But Zoom is only sharing Keynote and the browser won't be seen. (I know I could share the desktop but that looks terrible.) Is there a way to show a live webpage within Keynote? Thanks.

[@macmost]

No way to do it like that. Just clean up your Desktop and present it that way. Either that or switch from Keynote to the browser and back again.

[@mannymccash9660]

Hi - For some reason when I share my screen with Zoom/Kenote, the others cannot hear the audio from the embedded video (even though I've messed with misc. settings)- no luck. Do I need a paid account or something? Let me know if you know THANKS

[@macmost]

Not sure. Check the Zoom app help.

[@mongoose000]

Extremely helpful video. Not sure if you can answer this question but here goes: If I'm hosting a webinar in Zoom that's paid registration (via Zoom > PayPal) and available to registrants via a specific Zoom invite link - what is my best Keynote mode to use for a fairly content rich presentation? From yr vid, I'm guessing it's the Keynote Live function but that means you'd have to provide the correct link to registrants once they are allowed into the Zoom presentation. A bit clumsy but do-able. Am I right? Thx in advance.

[@macmost]

Test some things out. Try that. Try "in a window" too. Test it using another computer as your "audience" or friends. If you want to make a truly good presentation, there's no substitute for trying out your tech before you present. So do that and see which one works better for you and your presentation.

[@mongoose000]

@@macmost Thanks. I'll give it a go - I'm a great believer in testing things out before the actual event.

[@JunJun-xp5te]

Hi. Thanks for this video. I just have a question. I noticed that when your video is overlapping with your keynote when presenting, in the participant's view, it is not showing as a gray box. This has been my problem now. What should I set to achieve this? Please advise.

[@macmost]

Sorry, I'm not sure.

[@JasonMarcCampbell]

This was great. Thank you

[@keithadams1]

Thank you for this informative video. I have what I think is a fairly unique situation in that I need to switch between presenting my keynote slides and having the ability to SWITCH back to myself on Zoom, just speaking to the attendees. so basically i have sections where i want to be in the keynote and sections where i want them to see me, not my keynote. the issue i am having is that once i am in the middle of my presentation (which is fairly complicated and involves reading notes) i have to STOP my screen share, then when i need to restart it, it is kind of complicated and it throws off my flow. is there a way to just STOP the screen share with a toggle, then restart it? so i don't have to mess with menus and clicking on which window to select, etc? i am not sure this Keynote Live feature (which is great btw) will work for me. Any suggestions?

[@adamhussainart]

How can I use the annotation bar on zoom when my Keynote is shared in full screen by clicking play mode (traditional way - not using key live note)?

[@macmost]

Not sure what you mean. Is "annotation bar" something in Zoom? Maybe try playing the Keynote presentation in window mode, and just make the window what is shown on Zoom.

[@rachelthornclasses1587]

This is all amazing and I'm happy to see Keynote finally has these tools, but most of my students would be viewing on their mobile devices, so if I want my face on the screen at the same time, I don't see how I could do that without adding something like OBS to the mix. Also, the more flexible methods you describe add extra steps for viewers, who may not be very tech savvy (or just not motivated, in the case of college students). But the new Keynote tools would definitely seem to make it easier to use Keynote with OBS. Last semester I had to convert all my Keynote presentations to PowerPoint in order to use them with OBS.

[@hortonao]

Rachel, this is my question as well. Did you ever find a solution?

[@mattthorn]

@@hortonao Not really. I gave up on trying to using Zoom for lectures and stick with using OBS to stream to KZbin and Twitch via Restream.io

[@jenazz]

Hi Gary, this was really helpful and I got MOST of it to work--I did 2 test runs--all was fine with the Mac users, but the PC user could not see the videos (embedded in my Keynote from an iMovie file export). Is there a specific iMovie resolution that fixes this problem? Is it a video format issue, or a keynote or zoom settings issue? Any guidance would be appreciated.

[@macmost]

Any of the iMovie export formats should work. But maybe their Windows computer was very out-of-date?

[@jenazz]

@@macmost I will check that thanks!

[@billyshearer1]

Fantastic! Thanks!

[@hortonao]

This is so helpful. One question, in theory, couldn’t I broadcast my keynote live presentation from, say, an iPad, and then view it on my laptop along with seeing all the faces of my students? Second question: I’m still wondering how do students see me and my presentation on their phones if they’re viewing through a keynote live link?

[@margijohnstone9249]

Great tutorial. I have been asked to share a keynote automatic presentation (with transitions and audio) over Zoom within a church service. What’s the best option for: 1. Having it start without finagling within ribbons, 2. Having the transitions come through as well as possible? Also, would it be better (since it’s self-playing) to upload it to KZbin and provide the host with the link and responsibility for sharing, or what? Thank you.

[@macmost]

Ribbons? If you aren't the host, and the presentation plays completely automatically, then sure, I'd upload it to KZbin and let the host handle it from there.

[@margijohnstone9249]

@@macmost I actually have provided KZbin links to the host for the past two Sundays’ bread services. The KZbin videos have looked great. The Zoom playback was choppy (not unwatchable) particularly, it seemed, with transitions (DISSOLVE mostly). The slides are nature slides that are meant to enhance worship in an inspirational way. Do you think, since I’m creating the automatic Keynote slideshows for one-time Zoom presentation use only, I’d be best advised to use animations as little as possible? Or do you happen to know which transition animations, if any, would be more recommended for Zoom viewing? Thanks again.

[@macmost]

@@margijohnstone9249 When streaming live on zoom, the more pixels that change per frame, the harder the compression has to work. So a transition from one slide to the other will be a time when all pixels in the video are changing, and thus the live streaming will struggle with it. So if you don't need the transition, don't use it. But don't be afraid to do it if you think it will be better with the transition, even if the streaming isn't perfect.

[@margijohnstone9249]

@@macmost Thanks a lot!

[@allensimpsoncomposer]

Great presentation! I have two questions: 1) In my version of Keynote (11.1) there is no Keynote Live button. In the "Share" menu, I can select "Use Keynote Live..." But when I click on it, I get another window that says: "Go to iCloud in System Preferences. Sign in, select iCloud Drive, then select Keynote in Options." Does this mean I can only use Keynote Live if I subscribe to iCloud? 2) I have links to videos in my keynote presentation. (And by "links" I mean, they are videos that play within a slide, but they are *not* copied into the keynote document itself. They live outside the presentation, elsewhere on my hard drive.) Will they play during Keynote Live, or do they have to be saved *within* the keynote file?

[@macmost]

You need to save the presentation to iCloud Drive to use Keynote Live. You can do that with the free version of iCloud. I'm not sure if the videos will play as I haven't tried it recently, you'll have to try it and see.

[@allensimpsoncomposer]

@@macmost Yeah, I just tried it with a friend, and some of the videos played for her and some didn't. Some started for her when I hit play, others started moments later, and some never started at all. It's pretty much a deal-breaker. (Same thing for audio files; I had a few embedded MP3s for sound/music transitions.) I love that Keynote has this Live feature, but if it doesn't work with audio and video, then what's the point? Do most people not include any audio-visual material in their presentations? Seems weird if Keynote Live is only for presentations with just text & pictures.

[@macmost]

@@allensimpsoncomposer The embedded video feature is very new. I think a lot of people do what they just did before and have links to view the videos in the browser.

@@macmost Interesting. Curious what you mean about what people did before. I have several videos on my hard drive that I want to include in my presentation. How would I do that with a browser?

Hi Gary, great content!. How about when using Keynote and dual monitors in Zoom? I play the Keynote with my presenter view (w/notes) on the main screen (my Mac) but the Video Panel disappears from both screens. I can have the chat and participant list on the main screen ( I've previously clicked pop-out) but there is not such an option with the video panel so I can't see the audience or myself while I'm presenting. I tried Command + tab but it pauses the Keynote. The More option "Show/Hide Video Panel" does not appear on the floating bar either. Hope someone has some advice on this. Thanks!
