Unable to open Microsoft Powerpoint. Check your Microsoft Powerpoint installation

This is the message I get when I try to edit powerpoint 2007 files. I also can't import PPTX files into Captivate 5.5 (only PPT - Powerpoint 2003 version files)

This is what happens when I try to import/open a MS PowerPoint 2007 file:

Hi Anjaneai: thanks for your reply. The version of MS PowerPoint is 2007 (Portuguese Brazil Version) 12.0.6654.5000. I have tried the steps you suggest but still can't edit from Captivate (only at MS PowerPoint then updating in the library)
Thanks,

  • Unable to open iPhoto - message states 'your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable' Gone to 'Photo Library First Aid' but unsure of safest option as haven't backed up photos.

    Can not open iPhoto in order to access pictures in library. I haven't backed up all my photos so I am concerned about loosing my pictures. what is the safest action to solve this problem?

    Start by backing up now:
    Most Simple Back Up:
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
    Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store
    Then try restart your Mac.

  • I connect my i-pad mini to my wireless router but when i try to use the internet i get a pop up saying "unable to connect with server. check your internet connection and try again i try and try it still wont work anybody know how to fix this

    I connect my i-pad mini to my wireless router and it says im connected but it wont let me do anything anybody know why ?

    You may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
    Your router may not have given your iPad a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
    Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPad (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
    If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

  • Unable to open microsoft office

    I am unable to open Microsoft office at all. I restored my system yesterday and it worked. shut down and logged on today the same issue. I show that an update was done last night so I am checking here first b/f I call microsoft.

    How is this related to Firefox, or any Mozilla product?
    It sounds like what you need to do is repair your Microsoft Office installation, then check Windows Update for any updates again.

    can anyone pls help how to set the db offline. currently  i  stopped the sql server services from services.msc and started the  sql server agent.
    should i stop both services for moving from one drive to another?
    note: I tried teh below solution but this didint work:
    ALTER DATABASE <DBName> SET OFFLINE WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
    Update:
    now am getting the message :
    Msg 15010, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_detach_db, Line 40
    The database 'CMP_143' does not exist. Supply a valid database name. To see available databases, use sys.databases.

    Unable to open the physical file "D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\CMP_143.mdf". Operating system error 2: "2(The system cannot find the file specified.)".

    First you should have checked the database mdf/ldf name and location by using the command
    Use CMP_143
    Go
    Sp_helpfile
    Looks like your database CMP_143 was successfully detached but mdf/ldf location or name was different that is why it did not get copied to target location.
    Database is already detached that’s why db offline failed
    Msg 15010, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_detach_db, Line 40
    The database 'CMP_143' does not exist. Supply a valid database name. To see available databases, use sys.databases.
    EXEC @RC = sp_attach_db @DBName, @DESTData, @DESTLog
    Attached step is failing as there is no mdf file
    Msg 5120, Level 16, State 101, Line 1
    Unable to open the physical file "D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\CMP_143.mdf". Operating system error 2: "2(The system cannot find the file specified.)"
    Solution:
    Search for the physical files(mdf/ldf) in the OS and copy to target location and the re-run sp_attach_db with right location and name of mdf/ldf.

  • Unable to open file in browser (Microsoft Word Web App, PDFs, etc) after updates

    We just updated with the recent updates, and now are unable to open any documents in the browser in IE. We are using version IE 11. This is not an issue in Firefox or Chrome. Does anyone have any fixes to this? This seems like some sort of compatability
    issue, but we are running our browser in compatability mode.
    Our temporary fix is just to have documents open in the client program, but this really isn't as convenient.

    etoile, can you check the ULS logs on the OWA server at C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\OfficeWebApps\Data\Logs\ULS\, reproduce your error, and see what is captured in the log?

  • Concurrent users unable to open a shared Microsoft Access MDB database

    I have a share on a Cisco NSS2000, the NSS is in Workgroup mode (Firmware 1.13).
    Every user have read/write rights on this share.
    When I try to open an access MDB database from this share it happens that only a single user at time can open the database.
    The second user that try to open the database get a "Cannot lock file" error message.
    So, when a user has the Access DB opened, no-one other can open (or connect to) the same DB.
    It's impossible to open the DB using the access IDE ("Cannot lock file" error message).
    It's impossible to make multiple connection to the DB using OleDB ("Cannot lock file" error message).
    I've tried give full access to the mdb file.
    I've tried give full access to the mdb folder.
    I've even tried to give full access to the temporary LDB file.
    I always get the same error message.
    Is there a workaround?
    Thanks, Max

    I've finally been able to update the firmware to the latest 1.16.
    Now everything works fine, problem solved! :)
    Thanks,

  • Many years ago synced iCal with Microsoft program. Since installing Lion whenever I try to create an event in iCal it flashes up message "Unable to open Microsoft sync services Power PC applications no longer supported." How do I get rid of message?

    Many years ago synced iCal with Microsoft program. Since installing Lion whenever I try to create an event in iCal it flashes up message "Unable to open Microsoft sync services Power PC applications no longer supported." How do I get rid of message?

    Lion no longer supports PowerPC apps. If this is Microsoft Office 2008 (Entourage 2008) then you should disable the syncing services.  (I don't have Office 2008 installed anymore so I don't know exactly what it's called anymore.)  If you have Microsoft Office 2004 or earlier, then it can't be run on Lion at all since Lion removed Rosetta, which is what allowed a PPC app to run on an Intel based Mac.
    Also, I believe Microsoft removed sync services from the current Outlook 2011 (which replaces Entourage) so even upgrading to a newer version of Microsoft Office will not get you back that calendar sync feature.  Supposedly Microsoft is working on a new syncing system, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

  • Office Web Apps Issue - "Sorry, something went wrong" message when opening a document (any MS docx,ppt etc) in IE. With Chrome, it pops (Microsoft Office needs your permission) message and on RUN, it opens the document.

    When opening any Microsoft documents ( docx, ppt etc) in SharePoint 2013,
    Internet Explorer behavior : "Sorry, something went wrong" An unexpected error has occurred message and then nothing happens. 
    In Chrome : Pops (Microsoft Office needs your permission) message and on clicking RUN, it opens the document.
    In Firefox : the documents opens, after asking which application do you want to use to open it.
    The feature (Open Documents in Client Applications by Default) is not activate.
    Why the MS documents are not working in IE 10?

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you failed to open Microsoft documents in SharePoint 2013.
    I recommend to Run the following PowerShell in OWA Server :
    Remove-OfficeWebAppsHost # To Remove any restriction
    Or
    New-OfficeWebAppsHost -Domain <String> # To allow specific domain Name
    In addition, you can allow OAuth via HTTP using the following commands:
    $config = (Get-SPSecurityTokenServiceConfig)
    $config.AllowOAuthOverHttp = $true
    $config.Update()
