This is not a bug, Keynote is working correctly.


As an example;

when in Play, the slide switcher is used to display slide 2,  

Keynote will navigate to slide 2 then displays slide 2, then the transition is shown between slide 2 and slide 3

Keynote does not play from the previous transition attached to slide 1, as it would display slide1 transitioning between slide 1 and slide 2

(red shape indicates a transition)


slide 1 is the first slide, slide 3 is the last slide in the presentation

  • In Keynote, when a transition is attached to a slide, it will create a transition between the selected slide and the next slide,
  • a transition can not be placed before the first slide
  • the last slide can have a transition attached and it will play a transition from slide 3 to black


Two procedures you can use to get the outcome you want:


1 - do not use transitions, instead use Builds,  when using the slide switcher, Keynote will go to the requested 

         slide, then play a Build animation


2 - add an additional slide between all the existing slides (using a suitable background and content)

         then add the same transition to the new slide
