Will my keynote presentation from the mac work on the dell computers at my school?

I have a huge presentation due and I am currently working on it. The only problem is that I have a macbook as my school runs only on dell computers. I'm worried that the presentation will not run on the dell computer... Which would be a huge problem for me. Will the presentation run accordingly if I run it off of my flash drive at school? Help?Will my keynote presentation from the mac work on the dell computers at my school?yes, BUT you have to make sure to save it in a form that will open in Windows. For example, when you save it choose to save it as a powerpoint file. You can to that by selecting the option in the drop down menu just below the place where you can choose the folder to save it in...it says- file type:



Also, as a backup you should always save it as a pdf just in case because that will open for sure on any computer.Will my keynote presentation from the mac work on the dell computers at my school?
I'm pretty sure you can, but the computers at your school probably won't have keynote if they're DELL computers...they'll most likely have PowerPoint, so you'll have to export your keynote presentation as a PowerPoint file for it to work, and if that doesn't work, maybe export it as a QuickTime movie or Flash video, those are your options and they may or may not work.Will my keynote presentation from the mac work on the dell computers at my school?Get a memory stick its twenty bucks save it on it and plug it in the computer same situation as me before are we the same lolWill my keynote presentation from the mac work on the dell computers at my school?
No, it will not work because there is no program for Windows that can open a Keynote presentation. Your best bet is to export the presentation as a PDF file and use Adobe Reader to present it. Your school's computers most likely have Adobe Reader installed.

You can also save it as a .ppt and open it with Power Point, but your transitions may become messed up.

Another option would be to export it as a Quick Time video, but it is doubtful that the school computers would have Quick Time installed, so they would not be able to play the video.Will my keynote presentation from the mac work on the dell computers at my school?yesWill my keynote presentation from the mac work on the dell computers at my school?
Save it as a powerpoint file, .ppt.
