Using an Apple Remote
If your computer came equipped with an Apple Remote, you can use it to control your
slideshow. The buttons on the Apple Remote can be used to move forward or back; to
play, pause, continue, or exit the slideshow; and to control your computer’s volume.
You must open the Keynote document on your computer before you can begin to
control it using the Apple Remote.
The following table describes how to control Keynote using the Apple Remote.
