Sixth, I chose SLIDESHOW – TRANSITIONS and clicked OPTIONS. (Our church uses Windows computers with PowerPoint and doesn’t have Keynote, so that’s why we needed to make this in PPT format.)įifth, I opened the file in PowerPoint 2008 for Mac, and clicked to view all 205 slides in slide sorter view. Third, I selected all the images in the folder (holding down the Command key and pressing “A”) and dragged one of the icons into the Keynote slide sidebar, as shown in the Skitch screenshot below.įourth, I chose FILE – EXPORT and saved the slideshow in PowerPoint format.
Second, I opened a blank Keynote presentation. This is yet another example of why Keynote ROCKS.įirst, I copied all 205 JPG images into a new folder on the computer’s desktop. You can’t do these steps, as far as I could figure, using just PowerPoint.
I’m not sure if there is a faster way to do this, but these are the steps I followed to create her presentation in about 15 minutes using Keynote and PowerPoint 2008 for Mac. She wants a 3 second delay on each photo.
My wife needs an auto-advancing PowerPoint slideshow for our church services this Sunday, which will include 205 photos of her preschoolers and nursery staff at work and play.
