Use Keynote Remote When no Internet is Available

Keynote remote on your iPod/phone/pad can control your computers keynote presentation when they are both on the same wireless network. If there is not a wireless network available or the connection is sketchy, you can use this method to temporarily broadcast a signal from your mac so your device can wirelessly connect to it.

Loved the (vidiation). my new word for (video communication).... I ave a quick question I wanted to know if I can use this same tech-advantage via iphone to Ipad keynote???

[FuryFilmsEst2003]

@PITSAND7 There is currently no way to do this (that I know of). It would require the iPhone to talk with the iPad and thus far, Apple isn't too keen on that sort of ability with their iOS products.

HOWEVER! A new iOS update has just been released that allows your iOS device to create a WiFi network (similar to how I described for the Mac). So, it could be possible but I have not attempted it. I wouldn't count on it though.

Hi Josh, you saved my life....... and the speech I am going to give next month. I thought I could just use my Keynote Remote through a bluetooth connection from iPod Touch to MacBook Pro, but no. I was trying all sorts of things and about to give up, when I found your video. My iPod will pair, but not connect to my MacBook at all. Is that normal? Thank you again for your wonderful tweak. I would never have figured that out by myself.

@wal1942 Thanks! I'm glad it helped!

I'm unsure what you mean by "My iPod will pair, but not connect to my MacBook at all". BUT if it's working, awesome!
