Playing a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation

hi ,
I need to know how to play a Microsoft Power Point Presentaion (*.PPT) using DMM. More over i would like to know whether there is a option in the DMD
to play only audio file.
thanks

To play a PPT point file on the DMP...use a PPT plugin to convert your presentation to Flash 7 in the correct dimensions. Include it in your application.
You can now play pack MP3s on the DMP 4400 with the 5.2 firmware upgrade.
Cheers

Issue opening microsoft powerpoint presentation

I am having issues opening a powerpoint presentation through microsoft word. The error message I am receiving is "There was an error accessing MacintoshHDusers..." Any suggestions? I am receiving the file from another mac user who I believe is using keynote.

I only know that the slide shows has .pps as an extension which is > PowerPoint and that all of these I receive as attachments the sound will not play when I open them in Keynote. Keynote opens it as a PowerPoint presentation but I have the option to change it to Keynote. The sound will not play in either option. The audeo could be in any number of Microsoft audio formats.

How do I get microsoft powerpoint to play on my imac?

A friend of mine has sent me a microsoft powerpoint presentation that he created on his PC. I am trying to open it and play it on my iMac but rather than being able to click through each slide with the various lines that appear one at a time, instead when I click it simply moves to the next slide, without loading the several lines that should appear each time I click for that particular slide.
Any thoughts?....

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.

Is anyone able to play the powerpoint presentation on this update of the os x ?

Does iWork come with a form of powerpoint presentation compatible with Microsoft Office Powerpoint?

I recently bought a MacBook Pro and need to purchase iWork or Microsoft Office. Does iWork come with a form of powerpoint presentation? If so, is it easy to use and compatible with Microsoft Office presentation software? The latter question is extremely important as we use Microsoft Office primarily at the college.

Yes, Keynote is iWork's PowerPoint equivalent. You can save as a PowerPoint file as well. Very easy to use IMO.

Microsoft Powerpoint - when entering presentation mode on a tv via vga - you enter a mode where you can see your slides order and manage this, whereas everyone else only see's the highlighted slides in fullscreen - mine is in reverse and i cant change?

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?

I have a powerpoint presentation with music which works fine when played through my macbook onto tv, but want to save the presentation to dvd. Music doesn't play - presently saved as wav. Anything i can do - have tried through idvd.

Hi
Please describe How You go from PPT to iDVD. Via iMovie ?
If so - then convert Your .wma file to .aiff (same kHz) and use this in iMovie instead. (no .mp3 either)

How do I play Powerpoint presentations with audio with Keynote?

Can someone please point me in the right direction? Like a lot of people, I have several powerpoint presentations that I obtained while I was a Windows user. While Keynote can open them and play some of the transitions, many of the effects will not play, including the audio.
Is there a way I can reformat the presentation so I can view/play it properly in Keynote? I am wanting to resolve this issue so I can remove MS office for Mac from my machine.
I would be most grateful for any help that anyone could provide with this enquiry.

Keynote isn't at all good at dealing with audio, so whether it's worth trying largely depends on the content of your powerpoints and how many you need to transfer.
If it were me, I think I'd look at using OpenOffice - it may make a better job of things for you.

Making a powerpoint presentation movie and knowing it will play in all comp

Guys i was hoping i could get some help with this issue. I am new to mac.
I am making a powerpoint presentation which i plan to have made into a movie throught the power point software. I sent it too another computer of mine that doesn't have quicktime on it. It did not work on that one even in windows media player, which i thought would be the case. I know with power point when you put a presentation onto a disk it will ask if you want to save power point viewer so that it can be seen if they have power point or not. Has quick time got something similar if not are there any suggestions.
Your help is much appriciated
Cheers

Keynote and Microsoft Wireless Presenter Mouse 8000

Hey folks,
i seached on this in the forum, but actually did not find any hints about my problem.
So I switched from PowerPoint to Keynote some weeks ago and got to do my first big presentation with Keynote in some days. I am amazed by the possibilities Keynote offers.
Still, I am stuck with a problem:
I am using the Microsoft Wireless Presenter Mouse 8000 with its original MS drivers. I am just amazed by that piece of hardware. For those who dont know it: Its a Laptop Mouse which you can flip. On the downside, you've got presenter controls like Forward/Back/Play/Louder and a laser pointer button. You can easily switch between mouse mode and presenter mode, so you dont hit mouse buttons accidentially when presenting and vice versa.
With PowerPoint, it just works as it should. With Keynote, it doesn't work. The only thing that works it to change the volume and the play/pause button. Anyway, Keynote does not react to it.
Somebody encountered that problem before?
Thanks
Thorben

I'm running into that problem right now. I really like the mouse, but I've got to get it working with Keynote, else, I'll have to return the product.
I've tried using Steermouse, but it doesn't seem to be able to remap those those "Presenter" keys. The analysis is able to read the button presses, but the driver isn't able to remap.
If anyone knows of a workaround, please let me know! I'll try Applescript and some other things, but I'm about to give it up and just get a separate presentation tool.
Thanks in advance.

Opening a PowerPoint Presentation

When I open a PowerPoint presentation the slide show plays but there is no Audio. The show tells me to turn on my speakers, which are always on. The inspector window lets me select from my iTunes Library, the only choice.

I only know that the slide shows has .pps as an extension which is > PowerPoint and that all of these I receive as attachments the sound will not play when I open them in Keynote. Keynote opens it as a PowerPoint presentation but I have the option to change it to Keynote. The sound will not play in either option. The audeo could be in any number of Microsoft audio formats.

Optimizing PowerPoint Presentations

I work on an iMac running OSX 10.4.8 and am using PowerPoint 11.3.2. Within the Graphic Design group of a large corporation, we create our customer's PowerPoint presentations using the Macintosh then they take the finished products over to their PC environment.
We do not have an inter-department PC yet so a Mac is our only option (preferred by us, of course). Unfortunately, I find that the file sizes of the Mac files are exponential and seem to grow inexplicably with even the simplest text changes.
We are very well aware of how to optimize photo images and which formats to use. We also are very careful to use the 72 dpi resolution settings when saving files.
Also, I have tried all of the 'tips and tricks' I could find on the 'net about copying from Excel, dragging and dropping images vs. using the "Insert" function, etc.
I have a PC at home and I was able to find a nifty optimizing program (nxpowerlite) to use on files there and have been bringing our large Macintosh-generated files home before giving them to the clients and have been able to reduce the sizes from anywhere up to 9 Mb down to 786 Kb with very little visible degradation of the images!
So what gives? Is there some extraneous data which gets attached to the PowerPoint files every time they're opened and changed? Is there any way to 'optimize' Macintosh PowerPoint files the way you can on the PC?
I understand that Keynote is the way to go for the future but unfortunately this large Corporation doesn't seem to think that buying a different Macintosh program will help us solve the problem when we're trying to accomodate the 90% PC Microsoft PowerPoint users.
We are working on getting a PC in the office for Microsoft work but until then I'd really be curious to find out just what is happening with these files.
Thanks!

Hi, V. Welcome to the Discussions.
One common cause of Mac PPT file bloat is the use of the "Allow Fast Saves" PowerPoint's preferences. See this post on another forum.
For additional ideas, I suggest you search or post-to the "PowerPoint" group you can find on the Microsoft Mac Support - Newsgroups page. These are Google Groups with active participation from MS PowerPoint users, including a variety of expert users.
Be sure to state the version of PowerPoint you are using if you post there.
I don't mean to send you somewhere else, but I've found numerous answers there for folks with questions related to MS products. Accordingly, it has often proved to be the first, best place to look for answers to questions such as you are asking.
Good luck!
