Yes, you can run Apple Keynote on Windows PC computers. The keynote presentation app from Apple was originally designed for Mac OS computers from Apple, and then for the iOS mobile devices including iPhone and iPad. Originally to share Keynote files with Windows PC users the files needed to be exported to the PowerPoint format but this is no longer required. While Keynote can continue to export files to the PowerPoint format, Windows users can now work directly within Apple Keynote if they prefer. The latest version of Keynote imports PowerPoint PPTX files and exports to the same file format if needed. Running Keynote on Windows PC To use Keynote while working on Windows, you need a modern web browser and an Internet connection. Running Keynote on Windows computers uses Apple’s iWork for iCloud apps, which operates in manner similar to Google Docs.

The applications run on Apple’s servers, and can be accessed anywhere you have a broadband connection. As such, Keynote can be accessed by Windows users, Chrome users, and Mac users through iCloud. Keynote files can be opened from a Windows computer after they are uploaded to Keynote for iCloud.

Making certain that just about any Keynote file will be accessible, file sizes can be up to 1 GB and images of up to 10 MB in size can be inserted into a Keynote presentation. Although it operates in the cloud, the files can be both printed and shared. This version of Keynote also includes standard text editing with more than 200 different fonts available, along with creating charts, graphs, and tables. Apple also includes some unique capabilities that take advantage of iCloud. A view-only mode is available to share files with users for viewing but not for editing.

You can also share files for editing as well, and even password protected when sharing. Through the document manager Keynote displays a list of all presentations that have been shared for either viewing or editing.

Keynote Collaboration As with Google Docs, collaboration is greatly improved when using the online version of Keynote on Windows PC, Mac, iOS, or Android computer. Up to 100 users can collaborate on a Keynote presentation, and all collaborators working on a presentation can be displayed, along with their cursors and edits. If 100 people are collaborating on a Keynote presentation, it may quickly become a case of too many cooks in the kitchen, and you may quickly want to limit the presentation using the password-protection options. Keynote Collaboration is improved for those working with a global audience, as the application menus and commands are available in seven languages. In addition to the cloud based iWork applications, dedicated versions of Keynote remain available for both MacOS and iOS computers.
