Even if you do not have Microsoft Office installed on your Mac computer, you can still create presentations that are compatible with the PowerPoint program. With the Keynote application, part of the iWork suite of programs, Mac users can design slides and slideshows and then export their presentations as PowerPoint documents. These slideshows can then be viewed and edited on any computer with PowerPoint installed on it.
Step 1
Open the Keynote application by clicking on its icon in the Dock.
