OFFICE for the Mac, want lines on PPT slides to appear one at a time

I want to display lines on a ppt slide one line at a time/
I used to be able to do this by selecting Slideshow, Custom Automation, then "Appear"
I am using OFFICE for the Mac (2008).
But something has changed and I can no longer figure out how to get each line on a PPT slide to appear one line at a time every time I click it.
It's not that difficult, but I can't figured out where they moved the "Appear" option.
I am NOT using KEYNOTE, but PowerPoint from OFFICE for the Mac (2008)
Can someone help me.
Thanks,
Tom

etresoft:
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
That info is exactly what I was looking for.
I tried it and it worked like a charm.
The older version of PowerPoint that I was familiar didn't have the "Add Entrance" step.
I knew that some smart and caring person would answer my plea for help.
Thanks again.
Tom

Office for the Mac - file open slowness, freeze, or crash

When I select the File - Open window, any of the Office programs take a few minutes to display all of my files in the Documents folder. When they are finally displayed, any attempt to scroll through the list or go to a specific file results in the Mac's spinning wheel being displayed. Quite often, nothing happens after the wheel stops spinning. Sometimes, it just continues to spin. Consequently, it is almost impossible to use the File - Open window in Office to select a file to open. The only way I can do so is to use Finder to display my files in the Documents folder and then selecting them in that program's File - Open window.
When the wheel is spinning, Force Quit says that the specific Office program being used is "not responding." Usually, I use Force Quit to close down the Office program if it has frozen, crashed, or been slow using the File Open window.
I spent an hour yesterday with Microsoft Support on the problem. The conclusion of the tech was that I had too many files in my Documents folder. I pointed out that other programs such as FileMaker Pro didn't have this problem. The tech's response was that Office has to scan the entire Documents folder every time the File Open window is opened, but that FileMaker Pro stores a list of the last files in the Documents folder and doesn't rebuild the list every time.
I am skeptical of this "answer." The problem didn't exist until a few months ago.
My computer is a MacBook Pro 2.3gHz with 16 GB of RAM and a 750GB hard drive which has about 500GB free. This is a fairly fast machine with a Geekspeed of 10688. I was running the latest Mac OS Yosemite 10.10.1. The problem first surfaced with Office for the Mac 2008 about 3-4 months ago running Mac OS 10.10.1. I installed Office 365 yesterday, and and Mac OS Yosemite 10.10.2 today, and nothing changed.
The only solution that I know of is to take a lot of time to segregate my files in the Documents folder into more subfolders (I already have quite a few). That I am loath to do, because the solution doesn't work very well. It takes about a minute to select a subfolder in the File Open window, and then about another 30 seconds before Office allows me to scroll through a relatively small number of files (e.g., 100 files) in the subfolder.
When this question was posted to the Microsoft Community, I was directed to an article talking about problems with Office and Mac OS. None of the solutions worked, probably because the article considered only Office X and Office 2004 for the Mac and OS 10.2 and 10.3.
Help, please!

1) Verify that Office is fully updated. v14.4.7
2) I suggest you run Font Book and vailidate your Fonts. Microsoft installs duplicate fonts and after you clean up your fonts, this has often fixed odd issues with Office.
Office 2011 Duplicate Fonts to Delete
3) Delete the com.apple.LaunchServices file in your User's Library/Preferences folder. Log out under the Apple in the Menu bar and test. More info
If this fails to fix....
Testing in a new User will quickly tell you if the problem is system wide or if it's your User's folder that contains the problem.
Put a few test files in the Shared folder. Data in the Shared folder can be accessed by another User. When you "Switch Users", you can access the files in the shared folder. After you log into the new test User, drag from Shared (it actually copies). Put the test files in Documents.
Open Word. It won’t be in the Dock in the new User. Go to Applications to open.
Do you still see the issue?
If yes, you can eliminate the number of files in your Documents folder.
If no, then you might want to do a clean up in Documents.
*Remember to drag files back from Shared when you log into your main User.

Microsoft Office for the mac no longer is supported because it is a PPC App? Recourse?

What on earth is this power delegated to themselves to take away without fair notice that even applications bought through the apple store such as Microsoft Office for the mac, can no longer be supported because it is a PowerPC application. Since this was purchased through Apple, do they not offer an alternative?
I must call Rosetta Stone now also, huh? All this money wasted just because Apple has made the decision to f everyone?

Microsoft Office is not an Apple product. It is not up to Apple to support it regardless of where you purchased it.
Unless you want to learn a new language, don't purchase Rosetta Stone. Rosetta Stone is language training software. Rosetta is the codename of the technology that allowed PowerPC code to run on an Intel-based Mac.
Rosetta was based on code now owned by IBM. Since Apple does not own it, it can't just arbitrarily make it available to you to run the software that has been updated not once, but twice since the PowerPC platform was abandoned.
You might try asking IBM to write you some software to run your old programs, or you can update them to something newer. If that cost is too expensive, you might consider one of the alternative Office-type suites such as Open Office, Libre Office, or NeoOffice.
iWork is also an alternative, but it is not free. The three individual parts, word processor, spreadsheet, and presentation software, each cost $20 on the Mac App Store.

Does Lion allow Office for the Mac operate as it has been doing on Leopard? Or do I have to buy a new Office package?

I am reading that Office for the Mac does not work with Lion. Has anyone had this problem and how might it be solved?

Office for Mac 2004 will not work. Newer versions will.

Issues with Adobe Acrobat, leopard, Office for the Mac 2008

since I upgraded to leopard, it's been a nightmare. Office 2008 for Mac won't print Word or Excel documents, Adobe Acrobat 8 won't convert docx. files to PDFs and now has corrupted some existing PDFs. Anyone have similar problems and any answers out there yet?
Yearning for the simplicity of Windows.

No. All that works fine for me. Running 10.5.2 and Adobe Acrobat and Office 2008 all work perfectly well.
Your problem likely stems from upgrading over an already corrupted system. My suggestion is to reinstall from scratch (Erase and Install.)

I just purchase my first macbook air and i don't know how to download my microsoft office 2010 that i have already purchased for my old computer. Do i need to purchase again for the microsoft office for the mac?

I have a windows computer before i purchased my mac and i had already spend $500 for microsoft office professional 2010, i would ike to know if i can download the same one to my macbook air and how to do it. please need help!

The problem is that your Office 2010 package is a Windows application, and Windows softare doesn't run natively under MacOS. As a result, you can't simply download it or install it on your MacBook Air.
You can set up your MacBook Air to run Windows as well as MacOS, using either Boot Camp (where you pick whether to run Windows or MacOS each time the system starts, but you can't run both at the same time) or using a 'virtual' Windows installation (where you use software such as VMware to create a virtual Windows machine which you run as a window inside MacOS), but in either case you'll need a licence for Windows, plus the virtualisation software if you want to go that route. In other words, it's not simple, though in either case your Office software would be usable.
Some software houses are prepared to cross-licence software in this sort of instance - they'll allow a copy for one platform to lapse and charge a relatively low amount for new copy, on the basis that the user has already paid full price, but Microsoft generally don't seem generally cooperative in that instance.

Announcing the Audition for the Mac public beta

We are very pleased to announce that Adobe Audition for the Mac is now available for public beta. (You can see the press release here.) We encourage you to give it a try and provide us with feedback.
Audition will be shipped on both Windows and Mac OS when the time comes, but given that Mac OS is a new platform for Audition it is important we gather as much feedback and testing as possible in order to make this is a great product for all users.
Visit the Adobe Audition Labs page for download information and more details: http://www.adobe.com/go/audition_labs.

Okay, some answers. Yes, this is only a Mac beta. This is simply because no version of Audition for the Mac has ever been released, and it appears to be Mac-based comments they are looking for at present.
The press release is still there - it hasn't been withdrawn because it's effectively out in the wild now - what would be the point of withdrawing it? Anyway, in it is the line " Adobe is providing audio editors and video professionals with more choices for audio production". So it's very clear that how this is achieved is an issue, at least - it has to be to fulfil the intention of that statement. But in the present beta release, integration is not present, as you have discovered. I can't comment any more about that, and I'm not sure that the staffers can either - we are all under a degree of gagging about anything that isn't in the press release, or Jason Levine's video, pretty much.
If you want to find out a bit more than you will on this forum about some of the new audio-related aspects of the release, then read or participate in the AudioMasters thread about it - here. If you read the thread, you will find out why...

Problems with Photoshop cs4 for the Mac

I am having all kinds of problems with Photoshop CS4 for the Mac. When I boot the software it seems to work for a while then, I am unable to open upf a file in Photoshop. I drag a photoshop file over the application icon, the whole screen flickers and nothing happens. I am unable to quit Photoshop as the quit choice is grayed out and command-q will not make it quit. I have to force quit. I can repeat this pattern over and over. What is happening? How do I solve this problem?
--Kenoli

Thanks for the reply. I am using Photoshop 11.0.1. I am using the latest version of Snow Leopard. I have found both Photoshop and Dreamweaver to be pretty buggy for several versions now. My suspicions were that they were really engineered for Windows and never really fully implemented for the Mac. Dreamweaver crashes or hangs on me three or four times a day if I us it all day and does various annoying things like refusing to respond to the delete key after I have used it for a while. I have pretty much stopped using it to some degree for that reason and also because there is other software that does a lot of coding things I do much more directly and simply. Also Dreamweaver always seems to struggle to quit when I tell it to quit (that is, it takes a long time and gets hung up at places before it quits) and once it does quit, I always get a message saying that it has unexpectedly quit (even when I have told it to quit).
The problems with Photoshop (starting with just taking a long time to load) have escalated to the point I described today, which makes it almost unusable. I just reinstalled Snow Leopard to see if there was anything buggy in the system software. I will report if problems go away.
Regarding both the refusal to open image files and the grayed out quit command, made me think something like you, i.e. there was some dialogue box open somewhere. However, I couldn't find anything and I don't use two monitors.
So . . . Adobe just seems to be getting more expensive and more buggy.
Incidentally, why is it still running in Rosetta rather than natively? Adobe now has a real Intel processor to work with.

Looking for software that allows you to make "who wants to be a millionaire". Must be able to put in your own questions and HAS to be for the Mac. Help!

I am a teacher who would love to create the game "who wants to be a millionaire" with my own questions. I would use this for test reviews. I can't not find something for the mac. It is out there for the PC, but my class room is mac based. I can't use anything that will allow me to run the mac in windows, either. Anyone know of a software that will allow me to input my own questions? Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

My Adobe trial for Photoshop Elements 10 for the Mac was over and I wanted to buy the application. The screen message was "Your trial has expired...but the fun doesn't have to end! Buy now to continue using Photoshop Elements 10 without having to download

My Adobe trial for Photoshop Elements 10 for the Mac was over and I wanted to buy the application. The screen message was "Your trial has expired...but the fun doesn't have to end! Buy now to continue using Photoshop Elements 10 without having to download or re-install. " and then the button "Buy Now". When I hit the Buy Now button I am put in a field to buy Photoshop Elements 13, with no way to change to Elements 10. I do not want to go through the hassle of reinstalling etc. In fairness, it's been over a month since making the decision to buy. Still, I consider this a nightmare. Any ideas on how to buy the app I've got withou having to purchase a whole new one? Thanks.
If worse comes to worse, will I need to uninstall the trial if I buy a new version? Can I use part of it lime download assistant?

Adobe does not sell older versions of their software. If you wish to purchase an older version you will have to find and take your chances with a third party vendor.

What does "save" do in MS Office 11 for the mac?

I'm not sure this is the right forum to ask this in, but here goes:
Using MS Office 11 for the mac, if I view mail in my inbox, and click "Save" in the file menu, what does this do? Where is the file saved? "Save As" is grayed out, so this doesn't work. "Save" is NOT grayed out, so I assume it does something, but what?
thanks!

Hello,
you don't need OS X install-disk, but I strongly recomend to burn a Win 7 disk. You may have some problems with installing it from a USB Flash :)
Cheers!

What aspect of Microsoft Office? Office is a suite of programs... Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc.
You've got several potential options. Libre Office and Open Office (both googleable) are 'open source,' free, downloadable programmes that will open most MS Office programmes and perform many of the functions of MS Office. Might be an idea to have a look round for reviews (etc) first, to see if they sound like they'll match your needs.
If you're keen to use the App Store, there's Apple's own suite of programmes: Pages, Numbers and Keynote. They're a word processor, spreadsheet programme, and presentation-type programme with similar functions to Word, Excel and Powerpoint respectively. They're pretty good for most functions, and are better integrated with Macs than MS programmes. They're excellent programmes for what they do, and relatively cheap (about £14 each?).
But if you're heavily reliant on MS, want ALL the bells and whistles of MS, or need to regularly transfer files between MS programmes on other computers and your laptop / desktop computer, then they might not be the best of ideas. Keynote - IME - can have some difficulties in transferring formatting to Powerpoint.
Finally, there's MS Office Mac 2011. You can't download MS Office from the App Store, but can order the CDs from most online stores (including Apple's own store). It might be worth price hunting - if you're a student, you can usually find the programmes relatively cheap (£38 at the moment on Software4Students, though you'll need to belong to an academic institution / have a UK .ac email address). Apple's own prices on MS software are unlikely to be the best prices out there (though the product will be identical).
MS Office includes Word, Excel and Powerpoint in the basic version. The slightly more expensive version (which, I think, is the £38 one on S4S) includes Outlook. Which - IME - is far more of a nuisance than Apple's native Mail programme.
(I should probably add - I'm an academic. I own both Apple's own programmes, and MS Office 2011. I tend to use the MS programmes more, if only because they're the ones that other people tend to use, and transferring between Apple and MS programmes is a minor inconvenience. Pages also lacks Garamond, my favourite work font. The Apple progs are, however, far more beautifully integrated, and would be MORE than good enough for most users...)
