Keynote presentation in Teams

Hi

When presenting a keynote through sharing the screen in a meeting, the participants do not see the full window when pressing "Start presentation". I have done this many times before, recently a couple of weeks ago. Presenting a full screen view for the other in the meeting. Now they see just a "freezed" image of the cursor in a desktop mode of the presentation.

Have there been a update so keynote and team are not communicating - or maybe a overload of users in the last weeks?

Would really like to get help to solving this issue!

    I also had the same problem but I think there is one way you can avoid this if you want to use Teams app:

    Do not share only Teams app when you do sharing.

    Share the whole desktop.

    In this way, the full-screen mode of Keynote will work for other members in your team.

    At least theyre giving us more presenting options, such as presenting AND seeing the presentees in the same window. No more using an iPad just to see who’s paying attention or who wants to participate.

    Same issue here. Please Microsoft, prioritise the resolution of this bug! It's excruciating to have to present over PDFs.

    The funny thing is: I have no problems whatsoever to share Keynote presentations on both my Macs. The (really great) "play presentation in a window"feature also worked from the very first day. So I didn't realize this bug exists until I got a support call today from a teacher. 

    Given that sharing works for me but not for others, Microsoft can't just put the blame on Apple, this is clearly a silly bug in Teams which has been waiting for a fix for months now. Perhaps MS should just add someone with a clue to their developer team in charge of Teams for macOS…

    Wow, when I wrote this in april I didnt thought that the post would have so many replys from all over the world.

    But the most surprising thing is that this problem isnt solved yet.

    Unfortunalty, my company is bound to use Teams as a digital workplace and we are not allowed to use other apps as Zoom.

    I have not yet found a good way to do presentations in Teams, but for now I use Chrome and connect my mac to a second screen so I can both see what the others see and at the same time have my presentation notes. But I cant see the other participants and it feels like I'm pitching to myself.

    I know that powerpoint runs smoothly, but no way that it can compete with Keynote when it comes to making presentations.

    Who wants to make a bet, what happens first:

    The pandemic is over and we're back to normal.

    Keynote runs smoothly on Teams.
