Powerpoint presentation and iweb

Help! I need to upload my powerpoint presentation to iweb. I followed the directions saved the presentation with .htm extension to my file folder, created the link with inspector and published. However, when you click on the link, I get the prompt that the webpage does not exist. I do not receive any errors when saving the presentation as a webpage. What am I doing wrong?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. The web site version of a Powerpoint presentation is not what you want to use. It is pretty crude. I suggest you save the presentation as a movie which will preserve the transitions and add the movie to your web page by one of the following two methods: Opening Movie in New Window (window is sized to the movie's dimensions) or Adding QT Movie via the Export to Web from QT Player. Both methods let the web page load without the movie having to load. The movie loads after the Play button is selected.
You could use the second method to reduce the movie file size and add it directly to the web page but it would still have to load with the page and that will increase the load time time of the page.

Powerpoint Presentation and Captivate

I have finished a Powerpoint presentation that I would like
to try and put into Captivate to help with recording and laying
down narration, but have run into problems. It does not record the
transitions or animation I have put into the Powerpoint
presentation and chops it up. Is there a way to record through
Capitvate without having a chopped up movie?

Hi there bsostre
I have a question. Why do you want to turn Powerpoint into
Captivate for the simple task of adding narration if you have
already done all the hard work in Powerpoint?? My suggestion is to
rather download a programme such as "Audacity" to record and edit
your narrations and then attach those narrations to the relevant
Powerpoint slides with autostart on slide opening. The only other
thing to do then would be to set the timings of your slides for a
smooth transition aligned to the narration.
Please shout again if this is "NOT HELPING DUDE"
Cheers
Andrew
PS Audacity is freeware sound editing programme

Do all animations and features of Keynote save as PowerPoint Presentations and are all of the animations and features then useable on a PC in the .ppt format, will it work properly?

I want to buy a Macbook Pro, but i need to know the scale of compatability between my Microsoft products and my soon to be apple products, proffessional presentations are vital for what i want, therefore compatability if key if i am to purchase a Mac. Thank you.

Not all of the animations and features in Keynote will transition into Powerpoint. Most of the basic ones do - but not the advanced. I had this issue when I first switched over to Mac, so to overcome this, I do two things:
I figured out which animations and transitions work in both Keynote and Powerpoint and used them. It's kind of a pain when I can't use the awesome Keynote animations, however, Keynote is still much easier and intuitive to work in than Powerpoint.
I sometimes export my Keynote presentations to a Quicktime movie (.mov). Apple makes it very simple to export to this format; which can then be accessed on both a Mac and PC and all of the transitions and effects remain as they are in Keynote.
I hope that helps.

TS1365 working on powerpoint presentation and all the sudden there's a round colorful circle turning not allowing me to continue on the powerpoint

working on powerpoint presentation and all the sudden a round multi-color circle appears, and I can't exit out or continue with my project. help please???

the spinning round circle is apple's way of showing that the computer is thinking... when it happens to me it often means the computer is frozen and if this is a repeating problem then it most likely means that the problem lies with the software that you are using. Try uninstalling and reinstalling the PowerPoint software, or maybe you can see if there is an update available to the software that fixes the problem. Good Luck! - Mark

I created a powerpoint presentation and used idvd to burn, the text is blurry? how do i fix this

I created a powerpoint presentation, used idvd to burn disk. the text is a bit blurry. how can i correct?

but the presentation can not have any movement, transistions or music
It's possible to create an iDVD slideshow from a PP presentation with still slides of each PP page.
Here's how to get any file into iPhoto as a jpeg file:
1 - open the presentation in Powerpoint and select all of the pages in the "page" mode (don't remember what that mode is called)..
2 - type Command+P to start the print process.
3 - click on the PDF button and select "Save PDF to iPhoto".
Note: If you don't have any of those options go to Toad's Cellar and download these two files:
Save PDF to iPhoto 200 DPI.workflow.zip
Save PDF to iPhoto 200 DPI.workflow.zip
Unzip the files and place in the HD/Library/PDF Services folder and reboot.
4 - select either of the files above (the 300 dpi setting is primarily for images bound for iPhoto.books).
5 - in the window that comes up enter an album name or select an existing album and hit the Continue button.
That will create a 200 or 300 dpi jpeg file of the item being printed and import it into iPhoto.
Open iDVD and create a slideshow with the "+" button. Go to the Media/Photos browser at the right and drag the album with the PP pages into the slideshow window.
NOTE: if there are more than 99 slides in the presentation this method will result in a pause at slide 100 due to the fact that DVD standards only allow 99 chapters in any slideshow and each slide is considered a chapter. iDVD gets around this limitation by renumbering slide 100 back to 1 and so forth. The pause can be minimized, but not eliminated, by following the workflow below:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

Keynote presentation and iweb?

Hi,
I'm designing a mini website for my business and would like to know if it's possible to export a keynote presentation to an iweb site?
I know there is a button to share the keynote with iweb but i can't seem to figure out what exactly that option does.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks
Tim

Tim ~ See this Apple doc: _Exporting to iWeb_
Since you have a MobileMe account, you could export your presentation as a QuickTime movie and publish it to your MobileMe Gallery linked to from your iWeb site. Click on this link to see one of Apple's demo _MobileMe Gallery_ videos:
http://gallery.me.com/emily_parker#100624
...at lower right of the video there is a fullscreen button you can click. Publishing from iMovie allows it to be automatically converted to a wide range of sizes for optimal viewing on iPhone, Web, AppleTV, etc. See this video tutorial "_Publish movies to your MobileMe Gallery_".
In iWeb, you can view a list of all the albums and movies in your MobileMe Gallery, and incorporate any of them in an iWeb page. Visitors can click to go directly to your MobileMe Gallery. See this video tutorial "_Adding a MobileMe Gallery_".

Time and security protecting of PowerPoint presentations

I would like to know if it's possible to security protect a PowerPoint presentation and to time protect it also.
I have seen details of the security protection but not time protection. Basically, we want to be able to allow use of a presentation which cannot then be copied or used after a period of time; ie 12 months. This because we have to pay each year
to register a course and we need to be able to pass a proportion of the cost on; with the presentation they could avoid paying and have our presentation to be able to carry on using.
I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience.
Thanks and best regards,
Phil

Hi,
As far as I know, Office has no build-in time protection feature. We might develop an add-on to get your goal.
If you have any question about Office DEV, please post your question to the MSDN forum for General Office Development

It's recommended to download and install
Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office

I am considering buying a MBA but i need to do word processing, making power point presentations, and also to use publisher for work, does the MBA have the ability to do these things, if so will I be able to continue with work done on a MBA with a PC?

I am considering buying a mac book air and I was wondering if I can still do word processing, make powerpoint presentations and use publisher like i would on a PC? Also if I can then would I be able to continue with work done on the mac book on a PC and all the computers at school are not macs ?

I am using the 11" MBA with Office 2011 (with latest updates). The form factor is great for travel.
Powerpoint presentations work well, but there are some issues with creating a presentation under OSX then continuing editing under Windows (Powerpoint 2010). I've experienced problems with custom backgrounds not rendering correctly while editing slides under Windows when the original presentation was created under OSX. If you stick with the "standard" themes I imagine you'll be OK.
Also, there is a major drawback in that there is no IR port on the new MBA(s). Therefore, you cannot use an Apple Remote to control a slide show. Yes, there is an app for the iPhone that can control a Keynote slide presentation using Bluetooth, but since I haven't tried it, I cannot say if that app will work for Mac Powerpoint 2011.
What is really needed is an "Apple Bluetooth Remote". (please, if anyone from Apple is listening...)
Your only option to run Publisher is to run Windows in a virtual machine (e.g. Fusion or Parallels) with Publisher installed as there is no Mac version.
I run Fusion with Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 configured as a workstation and Office 2010 as my main travel machine and it is very responsive. Even using Windows Aero Theme which is knowned to be graphics intensive.

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.

Able to page through powerpoint presentation when in "Get Info"

Hello all
In order to open a ppt, I have been launching my windows OS.
I notice though that on my desktop icon I can see the cover page of the powerpoint presentation and if I click on "Get Info" I can even page through the entire ppt using the Preview pane.
Just curious what my mac is using to give me a preview of this powerpoint presentation?

Oh whoops. You said powerpoint. So I should have said Keynote, not Numbers. Regardless, they're both a part of the iWork suite.
Yes, you can edit powerpoint presentations from Keynote, but it has its own transitions/themes/etc., so if you're planning on handing that powerpoint file back to someone who's going to open it in Microsoft's Powerpoint, you end up being unable to retain some of the formatting/transition decisions you've made.
Obviously if you're going to use it to just make a presentation then it's awesome. I've given presentations with Keynote (recently, actually) in front of a class and had them say "What was that? It looked awesome!" Then I tell them it's Mac only and they get sad.
So, short answer, yes, long answer, it depends on what you're doing.
Fortunately, you can download a free trial of iWork for 30 days! http://www.apple.com/iwork/download-trial/

How to burn Powerpoint presentation to IMovie?

Can I take my Powerpoint presentation and save as a movie and then burn to a DVD via IMovie?
I am attempting to view this at home on a DVD player before presenting the PPT to a group on a big screen soon. I want to see how it comes across on a bigger screen than what I have on my monitor. Any help is appreciated!

If you have iDVD and a DVD burner (SuperDrive) on your mac, you can choose that as an export option in iMovie.
Or you can save your movie to the desktop as a Full Quality Movie and drag it to iDVD from there.
Here's a great tutorial:

Is it possible to retrieve an earlier version of a powerpoint presentation that has been over-written

I accidentally overwrote a powerpoint presentation and need to get it back. Does anyone know if it is possible? thanks

Ok. If I recall correctly, Powerpoint saves each new version using a temporary file name, then deletes the old version of the file and renames the temp file to the correct name. This means that you have a chance that the old version might be recoverable. You now need to Google "Mac file recovery" and see what tools you can find.
IMPORTANT: As you continue to work on your MacBook you run the risk that some other file will overwrite the data you want from the disk. Everything you do from now increases the risk of this happening.
Good luck

Splitting a powerpoint presentation in half.

Hi, not sure if this is the right place for my question. But I was wondering if it's possible to take a powerpoint presentation and cut it into two parts. Thanks!
Joe

Just hold the command key down while you select the slides you want to be separated and then right click then click cut. Then open a new powerpoint and paste the slides.

Synchronization of powerpoint presentation on a virual classroom

can someone help me with this one? it is a building block loaded in a virtual classroom. during an online discussion the professor can load a powerpoint presentation and when he turns into the next slide, the slide being viewed by the students will also change synchronously with that of the professor.

Do you need to do a presentation, or do you need to do a PowerPoint presentation?
PowerPoint is presentation software by Microsoft, part of Microsoft Office. If you want to use it, you need to buy it from Microsoft.
Apple has its own presentation software, called Keynote, and it's quite well regarded. However, it is not bundled with Mac OS X, and you have to buy it from Apple, either by itself, or as part of a suite called iWork, which is a sort of counterpart to Microsoft Office.
If you need compatibility with PowerPoint, but can't afford to buy it, you can try OpenOffice or LibreOffice. Both are free; they are based on the same software and they are designed for a high degree of compatibility with MS Office. There is also NeoOffice, based on the same software as the other two; it is supposed to be more Mac-like than the others, but, although theoretically free, it requires a (relatively) small fee to download, which means it's not really free. None of the three is as well polished or well supported as MS Office or iWork, but they do work quite well.
