iPhone Remote: How to Use Keynote Remote for Your iPad, MacBook Air,AppleTV

Apple Techies like us love this.  Use your iPhone as a Remote for your iPad, MacBook Air, Apple TV.  Yes!


Admittedly, the first time I tried using iPhone to present on my iPad I was hooked.  The simplicity is fabulous and the freedom while speaking is outstanding.  When I do Social Media Workshops, I use an Apple connector to connect to a Projector.

Sounds good.  It is except the freedom to roam the room or platform would be nice.  Well, it is and here is how you can, too!  Welcome Keynote Remote.

Start with your current version of Keynote on the iPad, Apple TV or whatever device with which you'll present.  (Don't mind that I need to update like (really!) 38 APPs.

Next, take your lovely iPhone and make sure you have this latest APP.  The awesome Keynote Remote Apple APP!  Hallejuiah!  Isn't it lovely!  Worth every 99 cents. 

Open the Keynote Remote APP and if you are all iCloud synced up like a great Apple fan, 

your iPad should come up on the list in Settings.  Make sure all devices have the Wi-Fi On.

Speaking of Updates, you will want to make sure you have all of your latest iOS 6 Software Updates! 

Oh, they have some really neat updates for us.  As I always say, 

"There's a reason we're Apple devoted." 

Yes, that too.  Go ahead and charge up and plug in your devices. Updates work best this way. 

Here's where it gets fun.  Open your Keynote presentation on your iPad (or device of choice). 

Go to the upper right hand corner and click the tools icon (looks like a wrench). 

Touch the "Advanced" bar. See below. 

Then Tap the "Remote" bar as seen below. 

You will get a Turn "On" Enable Remotes.  You will get a Code on the iPhone to type in on the iPad. 

When you open your tools as pictured below, slide the bar to say "Link." Then enter the Code.

You will be linked and see this screen. 

Then you will receive this message prior to beginning your presentation.

Simply click "Control Slideshow." And you are 'live." 

After it pairs the devices, you are golden.  Then it is show time. 

Simply Open your Keynote presentation and swipe your iPhone from 

anywhere in the room and present.  

You can control the presentation by tapping "Options" in the top 

left corner of the iPhone.  Tap First Slide, End Show, etc. 

(as seen below; ignore the iPhone 4s in this shot, this is part of an 

actual Keynote of mine prior to the iPhone 5 release_.

One more fun thing to add, Presenters check out the "Presenters Notes" bar

in your options for Keynote Remote. And feel free to type notes to yourself.

These do not show up on the projector screen. 

See my example below.  The yellow memo is for my eyes only. 

So many great things about Apple Technology.

Hope you enjoyed the "How To."  If you have questions, I would be happy to help. 

Just leave a comment or feel free to email me at CarolinaMama1 @ email (dot) com.

Thanks and Best to you.

Warmly,

Steve Jobs Reveals the Gorgeous iPad Tablet

Technology is a beautiful thing... enter Steve Jobs and the Apple iPad - the latest tablet:

Apple iPad

SAN FRANCISCO – Apple Inc. will sell the newly unveiled tablet-style iPad starting at $499, a price tag far below the $1,000 that some analysts were expecting.
The iPad, which is larger in size but similar in design to Apple's popular iPhone, was billed by CEO Steve Jobs on Wednesday as "so much more intimate than a laptop and so much more capable than a smart phone."
read more here...

Pardon me Apple, it looks like a 'large print' version of my iPhone! Seriously, isn't it cute! I wonder what kind of InCase (my case of choice for all things Apple) is needed for this tablet.

Apple beauty and function all in one... Speaking from experience, Apple does everything really well. So I personally can't wait to check it out. any questions? :)

North Carolina Fall Apples, Pumpkins and A Corn Maze

Happy October! We are loving the cooler Fall weather here. We love Apples, too!

We're planning a field trip to one of these Apple Orchards!
Apple Orchards in North Carolina
. We also have great plans for the Farmer's Market to "pick a Pumpkin!"





And to a very cool Corn Maze @ Green Acres. They even have Christmas Wreaths if your want to get ready!



And the Winner of the "Disney on Ice" Tickets is C and C Family! It's going to be an awesome show! Remember you can get a coupon code for your own Tickets from my post here. Good Luck!

We've got lots of opportunity for these things as we are having floor restoration - our hardwood floors in our kitchen restored. So stay tuned for "how she does it" with the 'restorers' taking over! :) I'd say it is perfect timing with all of these activities on the plate.

What's Fall looking like for you?!

Warmly,

Apple to North Carolina

It is confirmed news that Apple is North Carolina bound! That's right, North Carolina just got a whole lot better. All my pc friends have one more opportunity to get to know the lovely Apple family. We are excited to see this expansion in North Carolina northwest of Charlotte. Awesome! From Coast to Coast!

Now, Steve Jobs and Friends, please adhere to my survey and the many others - we need more retailers throughout North Carolina to keep this whole Apple thing top notch! Triad, Triangle, RTP, etc.

Are you an Apple fan? Even my pc fans who swear they can't cross the line - well, they are slowly rapidly seeing the light and being enlightened by the loveliness of all things Apple! Welcome all! What's your preference and why?

Warmly,

Tigers Monkeying Around

Really, I didn't intend for this to be a "Wordless Saturday." However, there isn't anything else to say (other than 'train 'em early')except you see why I also call them "my Cherubs."
Warmly,

Swimming, Apple and iPhone 3G

You see we're real creative here in the Carolinas. Swim, swim and then swim. It is summer ya know. So it's all good. We made it through the two weeks of swim lessons. More than make it through - the Tigers did really well. And I remembered why we signed up for more to begin with this summer.

We have had perfect 'excuses' to hang out at the pool for the better part of the morning until something more pressing appeared on the schedule - lunch and a trip to the Apple Store.

Yesterday, I was in the Apple Store and the Apple Guru, a young whipper snapper, smiled and looked at me saying, "You got the red case, the Monkey case" referring to my Red Monkey iTouch case.

Though I was very pleased and proud of my purchase which considered the Cherubs, not my love of pink and daisys. I was happy to admit my love of my little Red Monkey Incase for my iTouch. I detected a jaded salesperson Apple Guru poking fun.

So I simply said, "yes, my little monkeys at home love it."

To which Apple Guru says, "Did you see that segment about the people raising monkeys at home."

(you see where I'm going here... any mama sees where I'm going here.)

So I jovially say, "We raise monkeys at home. In fact, we breed them!" As the young guru laughs, I say "In twos!"

'Tis true!

Speaking of, just so ya know, tomorrow is THE DAY that Apple releases the very lovely iPhone 3G "Twice as fast, half the price." Wonder what the Monkeys will of think it! Go check it out here. iPhone3G.
