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!

    Hi,

    I believe this issue is related to choosing the keynote 'Window' and when going full screen in your application window Teams detects that as a new 'Window' and stops sharing.

    Try using the 'Desktop' share option. This way when you go to press 'Play' on your Keynote file it will keep sharing to Teams.

    Cheers,

    Mr T

    this problem is so ridiculous it simply drives me crazy. I had to give what would have been my 40th presentations since the start of Coronavirus and at the last minute I was told the group I was speaking to only used Microsoft Teams which I never used before. Coming from an apple only enviroment I had no idea how hard it turned out to be. I had to cancel my first date since I couldn't get the system to work and now have the same issue whereby once I go into presenting mode I can se absolutely nothing so have zero idea of what people are seeing with zero options to change the view.  Mind you, I use an iPad attached to my iMac which allows me to write over my presentation as I go along but Teams will not recognize the usb attached iPad nor the Apple Pencil so that alone killed how I present. amazing how bad Teams functions with its super unintelligent design layout

    I know your frustration. My workaround (which is why I left Windows in the firet place: workarounds for everything), is to share my whole screen, then use Keynote as a remote on my iPad to scribble on my slides. Too many steps for a simple thing. I tried to used Whiteboard but it’s too slow. I hope we get better updates in the future. I trust Microsoft can get there.

    Microsoft software is produced by people who loved MS-DOS.

    Teams is not good for presentating. Why can zoom do things teams cant?
