[DM-MUG] keynote presentation return from website

[Donald Patridge]

I create a link to a website inside a Keynote presentation, then I can click
on that link. The link takes me right to that website. Did you note the
Keynote icon in the Dock. You get a green circle with a triangle in the
circle. When you click on the Keynote icon you go right back to your Keynote
presentation and the correct slide. I do this all the time for my Keynote
presentations.  This has worked the last two versions of Keynote if I
remember correctly.

You only need two tools in life - WD-40 and Duct Tape.
If it doesn't move and should, use WD-40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use Duct Tape
