If you recorded a slideshow and then modified some of its slides or add new ones at the end, the recording might be out of sync with the slides. You can rerecord the entire slideshow or append further narration at the end of the slideshow to include new slides that you’ve added.

To rerecord or add to an existing voiceover narration:
  1. Select the slide on which you want to start rerecording.

  2. Open the Document inspector and click Audio.

  3. Click Record.

  4. If the selected slide was previously recorded, do one of the following:

    • To replace the previous recording, starting with the selected slide, click Record & Replace. If there was recording before the first rerecorded slide, it remains intact.

    • To replace the entire recording, click Record From Beginning.

  5. If the selected slide was not previously recorded, do one of the following:

    • To append the new recording to the end of the previous recording, click Record & Append.

    • To replace the entire recording, click Record From Beginning.

  6. To listen to the narration without playing the slideshow, click the Play button on the Audio pane of the Document inspector. Adjust the volume by dragging the Volume slider.

To play a recorded slideshow, you can use all the regular presentation keyboard shortcuts as described in Controlling a Presentation with the Keyboard. If you click Play in the toolbar and the presentation doesn’t play as expected, make sure Recorded is chosen from the Presentation pop-up menu in the Document Inspector.

To learn how to delete the recording entirely, see Deleting a Voiceover Narration from a Recorded Slideshow.
