IMAGES in POWERPOINT presentation can't be read by a Windows PC

I create a POWERPOINT PRESENTATION on a Mac and insert image files (jpg) from Google into the slides. The presentation works fine on the Mac.
I then go and playback this presentation on any Windows PC and it can't read the images, displaying an error message in the image frame of each such slide about some TIFF driver missing to display this image.
What do I do wrong?
PowerPC G5   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   Powerpoint 2004 for Mac

I have had this problem before, but I use the following work around.
1) Copy the graphic to clipboard with Command C (or use the Grab utility, then copy to memory)
2) Create a new document in Photoshop (it should automatically create the correct size)
- Paste
- Cut
4) Switch back to PowerPoint Mac and Paste it back in.
I do this routinely now when creating PowerPoint presentations and it works every time on PCs.

  • I have a DVD format VTS and I need to insert into a powerpoint presentation can anyone tell me the steps because what I normally do to insert media into a presentation is not working

    I have a DVD which I need to insert into a presentation does anyone know how to do this.
    The video format is VTS and I have saved the DVD on my desk top but it wont let me insert into my presentation.

    Sounds like your issue is between gmail and charter. Thunderbird would have no part in this operation.

  • How can I make Reader the active window when opening documents?

    I am having trouble with this because right now documents open in the background and Adobe Reader does not become the active window.  This requires an extra click on Adobe to bring the opened document to the foreground.
    Nowhere to be found in Preferences.
    My system is Linux RedHat 2.16.0
    Adobe Reader 9.3.1
    Thanks a bunch.

    Sir,
    Inspect the following methods (all available to, say, a JFrame) - they might help you out:
    setVisible
    setState (to (de)iconify)
    toFront (request to bring to front)
    requestFocus

  • Can't install Reader 9 in Windows 7, Error 1303

    Unable to install Adobe Reader 9.4.0 in windows 7.
    I get the following error
    Error 1303. The installer has insufficient privilegest o access this directory. C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX. The installation cannot continue. Log on as an administrator or contact your system administrator
    Retry / Cancel
    Retry always fails
    Folders have full rights
    Account is administrator
    Even ran IE as administrator in hopes this would help
    Uninstalled all Adobe products and restarted, this did not help
    Updated the security on the folders so the admin had full rights (this failed on a bunch of folders.)

    Download the installer directly from http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.4.0/en_US/AdbeRdr940_en_US.exe and save it to disk.

  • How can I import an i-tune into a powerpoint presentation?

    I am preparing a slide show for my wife's birthday on powerpoint 3.0, and I am a beginner. I want to play a song and show 93 slides. When I try to import the song by a file name, I can get into itunes, and I can select the artist and get to the album folder, but I can rarely get the song title itself to appear, and even when it does, I get a message saying that I have not designated the proper path, and tells me to check the path.
    Does anyone out there know how to break through past the artist and album name and load an itune into a powerpoint presentation through the "insert" and "movies and sounds" command features?
    I can play the music through the CD player and do the slide show, but I want to put the music into the presentation so that I can put the whole thing into a CD.
    Can anyone help? Thanks

    You probably need to link directly to the music not going through iTunes. If the music is from iTunes store you will need to convert to mp3 first then link to the mp3 version.

  • Can I use the ipad 2 to run Powerpoint presentations?

    I am in need of a device besides the traditional laptop to run Powerpoint presentations from. Can I link this with a projector with the VGA adapter? And will the ipad 2 run Powerpoint presentations?

    You will have different settings for each device, even with the same account.
    Don't worry about setting it up - just connect them to iTunes, which will detect them as seperate devices, with distinct names, and for each you can choose which things you want to sync over.

  • Can I convert a pdf to use in a powerpoint presentation

    can I convert a pdf to use in a powerpoint presentation

    ..and now I can reply less cryptically:
    Export to PowerPoint (PPTX) is available in Acrobat XI Pro.
    The all-new Save As > Microsoft Powerpoint Presentation feature will not only convert an existing PDF file into an editable PPTX file, it will (try to) recognize elements and reconstruct Master Slides, re-convert Speaker Notes and convert things like tables into genuine PowerPoint tables. The feature works on both Windows and Mac.

  • I have a problem projecting from a powerpoint presentation onto a projector ? can someone help....

    Hi Yogang,
    Unles I am mistaken, the USB to AV cables are only used to deliver an AV signal to the Mac (such as a DVD player, etc) to enable the AV to be recorded.
    If you want to transmit powerpoint to a projector, you need to use the displayport on the Mac. Once this is connected, the mac will automatically pick it up and set the projector up as a second monitor.
    Depending on the model Mac you are using and also the avaliable connections you have to the projector, will tell you the type on connector you need.
    These are DP to VGA, DP to DVI, DP to HDMI. The last one, if you have a mdern Mac, should also carry the audio signal to the projector.

  • Hi. Please can anyone show me how to install a flash document / movie into a powerpoint presentation so that the animation plays within the powerpoint? Thanks

    Hi. Please can anyone show me how to install a flash document / movie into a powerpoint presentation so that the animation plays within the powerpoint? Thanks

    wouldn't it make more sense that a flashtard is someone who
    just generally sucks at flash and asks idiotic questions?
    anyway, so i pretty much got the banner done - but i'm stuck
    on one problem. I made a motion clip of a heart, and i want the
    heart to fall from top to bottom, following a squiggly motion
    guide, and to rotate 1/4 turn on the way. I got it as far as
    following the motion guide, but when i try to select the instance
    in the first frame and rotate it, shouldn't the motion tween make
    it appear to slowly rotate, rather than stay put then rotate 1/4
    turn at the last frame? When I select the clip and play around with
    alpha and stuff, that works fine. What the heck?

  • Since update to 10.6.8 can't export images from powerpoint and also other programs

    Ever since I updated my software to 10.6.8 I can't export images from Powerpoint or from a graphing software GraphPad Prism.  It's really frustrating.  I had no problems at all until this update. Is there any way to revert my version to the old OS 10.6?
    I can't work when I can't put images into illustrator!
    Thanks, AOH

    I just contacted Final Draft and they helped me with it. If you have FD and are going to upgrade an OS, Deactivate Final Draft first then re-activate it once the new OS is installed.

  • Can I create a Flash button and use it to navigate to the next slide of a PowerPoint Presentation?

    Hello all,
    I've been having a bit of a hard time understanding how to get a button which I have created in Flash to navigate to the next slide of the PowerPoint presentation which it has been added into. I'm fairly new to Flash, so I believe that this is slightly out of my natural skill range, so hopefully someone will be able to help.
    I understand that I somehow need to make use of fscommand in ActionScript, but I'm not sure how I can get Flash and PowerPoint to communicate between themselves. If anyone could write a walkthrough on how to do this, I would be bery grateful.
    I'm using Flash MX 2004 7.0 and Powerpoint 2003.
    Thanks

    Hi. Why not to make the whole presentation in FLASH? What you have to do is to import all the slides inside FLASH. Then place one by one in the stills and then create the code to make the stills advance and show the slides by means of the button. The code for the button goes as follows:
    on (release) {
        nextFrame();
    to introduce this code make sure you press the button and no the frame.
    Then in order to make the presentation open and cover the screen, no matter how big it is, you need to enter the following code in the first frame:
    stop();
    fscommand ("showmenu",false);
    fscommand ("fullscreen", true);
    You will need also a button to quit the aplication. This is the code:
    on (release) {
         stop();
    fscommand ("quit");
    Now write all of this in your application and let me know your experience. MamenFLASH$
