Adding Narration and Other Audio

You can add music—a file or playlist from your iTunes music library, or any other

sound file—to a Keynote document. You can add sound as a soundtrack for the entire

slideshow, or you can add sound to a single slide.

If you add a soundtrack, the music starts playing when the slideshow starts. You can

specify whether to play the audio once or repeatedly (or you can turn it off).

If you add a sound file to an individual slide, the sound plays when the slide appears

and stops when you move to the next slide. You could, for example, record narration

for each slide as an MP3 file; this technique is especially useful if you plan to export

the slideshow as a self-playing QuickTime movie. (For more information, see

“QuickTime” on page 125.)

Note: To ensure that the audio plays on other computers, select “Copy audio and

movies into document” in the expanded Save dialog. For more information, see

“Including Sound and Other Media” on page 52.

Choose iTunes, iPhoto,

or Movies.

Drag a thumbnail to a slide

or to an image well in one

of the inspectors.

Search for a file by name.

Select an album.
