[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1578692, member: 38864"] You can believe I'm wrong all you like, that doesn't mean I am. Fact is, controlling Keynote from another device used to require the separate Keynote Remote app. This is beyond dispute. Fact is, Apple merged the remote functionality into Keynote 2.1 for iOS and pulled the separate Remote app from the Store. Again, this too is beyond dispute. Keynote 2.2 and later requires iOS 7. This too is beyond dispute... It says so on the App Store. I assume 2.1 also required iOS 7, but I can't determine that from searching. You never mentioned what version you have on the iPod is (I should have asked), but if it's older than 2.1, then it only has the ability to be controlled, not double as a controller. You can insist differently all you like, but all the internet begs to differ. If your iPod does have Keynote 2.1 on it, then I stand corrected. You seem to have an extremely poor understanding of how networking and inter-device communication works. The ability to "find each other" is wholly dependent on application support, within the limits of what iOS allows. The version of Keynote on your iPod simply cannot act as a controller, unless I was mistaken earlier and you are in fact running Keynote 2.1 on it. This has nothing to do with iOS or the type of device it is running on. Of course a new device running iOS 7 would fix the problem. It would also now be able to run the newer version of Keynote. EDIT: here's Apple tutorial on how to use Keynote Remote in Keynote 2.1. [url]http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6112[/url] [/QUOTE]
