How to rotate pics in Keynote

Click to select your slide. Go to Inspector>Metrics (3rd icon/Ruler)>type in how many degrees or rotate dial.
How to view notes...

I'm not sure what you mean but if I understand you right I use the extended display mode not mirroring. Anyways here's someone who recently discovered that feature.

Have you tried using OnyX? After launching OnyX (and typing in your administrator password), click on the Maintenance icon and make sure to check Reset: Mac Help and click Execute.
