The iPad is not only useful for composing a presentation when you are away from your computer. You can also present your slides and videos directly from Keynote on the iPad.

	To hook up the iPad to a projector, Apple sells a [http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC552ZM/B?fnode=MTc0MjU4NjE&mco=MTc5MzExNTI VGA adapter] for $29. It has worked well for us, e.g. lecturing in a classroom with a mounted projector and a cable of about 30', and in a church building with a portable projector and a 12' cable.		The version of Keynote on the iPad is surprisingly functional. However, it has limited fonts, so be careful which fonts you select on your computer if you are going to transfer a keynote to your iPad.

			It is easy to sync files between Mac and iOS devices via iTunes. Go to the device shown in the iTunes pane, click Apps at the top, scroll down to the list of apps that can sync files via iTunes, select Keynote (also works for Pages/Numbers), click the "Add to" button, search the Mac for the desired files, select, click "open" and voila! the file is synced to the device. No need to go through the whole syncing process.

To save a customized theme:

*In the View menu, choose "Show Master Slides."
*Select one of them to edit.
*Then go to the Inspector, and choose the second tab from the left, "Slide Inspector." It will be showing "Transition"; switch to "Appearance."
*At the bottom, you will see "Background."
*In the White theme, it is set to "Color fill." Select "Image Fill," then hit the "Choose" button to select the image you want.
*Now when you save the theme, that one Master Slide will be changed to the background image you chose. You would need to do the same for all of the master slides.
