Why are graphics garbled in PowerPoint?

I have a MBP retina, and ever since I've owned it, I've noticed an issue with the Presenter View in PowerPoint 2011.  Some of my graphics get garbled. This is specific to the Presenter view - with a 2nd monitor or projector hooked up, there is no issue.  Does this sound familiar to anyone?  Is it a hardware issue, or a software issue?  My graphics card is the NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB.  
I have attached a screenshot showing an example.
Thanks!
Steve

A few of us are also experiencing visual anomalies randomly occurring
in presentation mode while projecting HD 3840x1080 widescreen presentations
from the Mid 2012 MacBook Pro Retina in combination with
Microsoft Powerpoint for Mac 2011 v14.4.1 (140326)
We have found that the quickest/easiest way to trouble shoot this issue onsite
is to present/display the high resolution widescreen content
using a Late 2011 MacBook Pro w/ AMD Radeon HD 670M 1024 + Lion or Mt.Lion or
by using the same Mid 2012 MacBook Pro Retina with Powerpoint for Windows
or Keynote for Mac: Keynote 09 v5.3 (1170) or Keynote v6.2 (1861)
OS X 10.9.2 (13C1021) MAVERICKS + NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB +
MS Powerpoint for Mac 2011 v14.4.1 give consistent failures
however, we are still trying to determine the exact problem/solution
and would like to know if anyone else has also been having
issues combining any of the following (4) elements:
(1) OS X 10.9.2 (13C1021) MAVERICKS +
(2) NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB +
(3) MS Powerpoint for Mac 2011 v14.4.1, +
(4) x4 DATAPATH  Display Controller (w/Encore & Spider)

    I heard back from Nike+ support and they said that there will be newer pics soon and it also appears that this corrected itself for my runs, but not the user pic, I only get girly options, I wouldn't mind a picture of a guy on 'ROIDS!!! Just kidding, but something less feminine or cartoon like, I'm trying to be serious about this and the site should reflect that.

  • Why is IE7 garbling my layout when every other browser (inc IE8) is cooperating?

    Hello-
    I can't figure out for the life of me why IE7 is garbling the layout of my of my products. I'm pretty solid on the other browsers and on Macs.
    There are two types of products in my Magento store: Basic Products and Configurable Products.
    It is displaying the Configurable Products correctly here:
    http://www.punkypop.com/whats-new/gama-go-forest-buttons.html
    BUT the problem comes in when it's displaying the Basic Product (with no dropdown menu) here:
    http://www.punkypop.com/themes/tokidoki/tokidoki-cactus-pups.html
    Here is my side by side comparison in Browser Labs of IE8 and IE7:
    https://browserlab.adobe.com/index.html#url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.punkypop.com%2Fthemes%2Ftokid oki%2Ftokidoki-cactus-pups.html;delay=0;browsers=WXPFF3000%2CWXPIE7000%2COSXFF3000%2COSXSF 3000%2CWXPIE8000%2CWXPIE6000;zoom=75;view=1;showDelay=true
    I've attached the file I *think is causing the problem.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    Your compressed CSS code is terribly hard to sift through, so I didn't look closely.  But my guess is that you've got a float drop problem.  It's noticable in IE6 too.

  • Why are animated gifs not displaying animations in the preview?

    Why are animated gifs not displaying animations in the preview?
    My coworkers and I are not seeing a animation in the preview pane in Adobe Bridge CS6 even when clicking the play button in the preview window. However, we do see a graphic of the first frame and one person sees 1 frame when clicking play and one other frame and then the animation stops, however, that is not the complete animation.
    I'm using Windows 7 32 bit
    My coworkers are using a mac.
    One coworker has apple OS Mountain Lion with a Intel Quad-Core Xeon – 64 bit system.
    Is this fixable or in the works as a patch? Otherwise we have to open these docs in a browser in order to view them properly.

    I've just come to the realization that some animated gifs do play fine and others do not. A coworker of mine suggests that if it's an animation made via Adobe Photoshop, it'll work in bridge but will not if it's made using something else.

  • Why are my iTunes and iPhoto crashing every time I try to open them?

    Why are my iphoto and itunes crashing every time I open them?  This is a new problem on my Mac Mini.  Have the latest software on my Mac Mini and the latest iLife sotware.  My mac mini is about 5 years old, always kept up to date.

    Hello Majorie,
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    Also, how much Free Space is on your Hard Drive?
    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
    Reboot, test again.
    If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
    Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.

  • Why are people so crazy about XML publisher?

    Why are people so crazy about XML publisher? Maybe there are things I am not aware of, but with the exception of adding the ability to export to Excel from EBS, or having a template for a letter in which a few things will change from copy to copy, I don't see a huge advantage to using it.
    Reports is such a powerful tool and creates so much flexibility in creating graphical documents. Things that are so easy to do in reports, from my experience, is extremely difficult to impossible in XML publisher. In publisher, you have to do a lot of logic yourself that reports would do for you just by saying Yes or No to a property.
    When I first learned about XML publisher, I was really excited about learning to use it. But when I saw how difficult it is to do simple tasks, and how much you have to reinvent the wheel, I became really disappointed. There are lots of examples on the web about how to do this or how to do that with it, but honestly they seem to show you how to go to a lot of trouble to accomplish something that is easy in reports.
    People seem to want to avoid bitmapped reports like the plague, but I think they are extremely underrated.
    What do you guys think? Am I missing something? I would like to hear other opinions and perspectives.
    Thanks,
    Kurz

  • Why are my images scrolling from outside the Page width?

    Why are my images scrolling from outside the Page width? I am positive i has all the settings correct, to have an image parallax scroll from the edge of the page into the page and out again. But the images are flying in from the browser width - not the page width. This is not the effect I am after.
    Any suggestions on how to fix this? Given the key position is only linked to the height, I can't for the life of me work out how to ensure the images start moving from a certain position onthe left and right of the page.
    Thanks

    I think the effect you are seeing is a result of how the lineHeight is set up. By default, the lineHeight will be calculated as 120% of the size of the largest thing on the line -- in your case, this is the inline graphic. This is designed to leave space between the line before and the line with the graphic. So it is taking the height of the graphic, multiplying by 120%, and making this the distance between the previous line and the line with the graphic. So the bigger the graphic, the bigger the space above the graphic. Normally this works well with text, but in this case you may want to get closer to "set solid". You can do this by setting the lineHeight to 100%. Or you may wish to leave a couple of percent for the descenders of the previous line. Or, another alternative that may work well for you if you really know exactly where you want the line set, you could measure the graphic, add on the number of extra pixels to leave for the descenders, and make the lineHeight a constant. So you could do something like this:
    <img lineHeight="104%" height="411"/>
    or this:
    <img lineHeight="423" height="411"/>
    Obviously you would still need to specify the source and any other parameters you want on the image.
    Note that if you are trying to fit a 200 pixel high graphic into a 200 pixel high container, you will hit the same problem -- in order to fit the graphic, the container will have to be slightly bigger than the graphic in order to fit the descenders on the last line. This is true even if the last line contains only the graphic, and no descenders (or text) at all.
    Hope this helps,
    - robin

  • When opening a word doc in pages i am loosing the graphic images from powerpoint that were embedded in the word doc

    When opening a word doc in pages i am loosing the graphic images from powerpoint that were embedded in the word doc

    Are the images placed in a table? Many Word user have the habit of doing that. Tables are not handles the same way in Word and Pages so they get "hidden" in Pages. One way to find this out is to change the size of the paper of the document. You do that in the Page setup in the file menu. Create a document that is much longer that the default one and see if you images will pp up.

  • I have these black boxes around all the images i add. why are they there and how do i get rid of them?

    i have black boxes around all the images i bring into pages. why are they there and how can i get rid of them?

    Pages rememebers the last setting you used on images.
    So if you had a border on the last image the next one you bring in will have one too.
    To change that select:
    Inspector > Graphic > Stroke > None
    Spend a little time exploring the menus and particularly the Toolbar and Inspectors whcih are in reasonably logical progression from big things down to smaller details and clearly labeled.
    It is also possible that you have show Layout on which outlines objects on th screen so you can see what's what. To change that:
    Menu > View > Hide Layout

  • Why are website icons now removed when history is cleared?

    Hi,
    Just a very quick question:
    Why are website icons now removed when you clear the history in Safari?
    I have noticed this in the current Lion (and Mountain Lion) versions, this happens, when in previous versions they remained after clearing the history.
    Is there any way to change this?
    Thanks!

    Safari 6
    Safari > Help (menu in the menubar) > Show All Help Topics
    Search term "Clear History".
    "Clearing your history also empties caches, removes website icons, and clears the list of recent searches. Website icons are small graphics that help identify sites on the Internet. You see them in the address and search field, the bookmarks list, and other places. You can see your recent searches by clicking the magnifying glass at the left end of the address and search field when it’s empty".
    That is how clearing history works in Safari 6.
    There is no way change it.
    Best.

  • In Pages 5, why are page thumbnails different sizes?

    So I'm using 5. And I must say I think it's brilliantly done after a long period of ******** about it. I guess I'm not asking of it anything it doesn't provide and what it does it does very well - though I'm puzzled by the behavior of selecting text via the keyboard.
    Anyhow, that's not my question. I'm working with a long text document. I notice that as I work the page thumbnails become different sizes. It's subtle but it's clearly intentional. I reckon it's trying to tell me something but I don't know what. Haven't been able to find any info in the manual and was wondering if any of you clever people here might know. Thanks.

    This is what I meant about how rude you are though.  Your answer DOESN'T EXPLAIN ANY OF THE BEHAVIOUR myself or the other person were reporting.  The only assumption that I can make is that you posted here for the sole purpose of implying that we are both mistaken or stupid. 
    How is this helpful at all? 
    How do you have 32,485 points when you are obviously more concerned with insulting people than helping them out?  It puts the lie to the whole idea of "Apple Support Communities." 
    Also, I specifically informed you that your comments were insulting and unhelpful and politely requested you not post on this thread anymore or at least until you had some kind of actual information, yet here you are.  Posting again, with no content other than the implied insult.
    I'm not stupid.  I know what a section break is, I know what a page break is.  I'm a writer who has used innumerable word processing programs over the years and have been an IT worker for 10 years now. 
    I have a Pages document.  It has no (or only one depending on your point of view), section(s).  It has page breaks only.  The pagination is set to start at "1" on the first page and proceed normally to the end of the document (300 or so pages).  I am using Pages 5.5.2 on a brand new iMac.  I have NONE of the previous or older versions/types of Pages on my computer. 
    The pages thumbnails on the side, do actually CHANGE SIZE randomly as I am editing the document.   These differing sizes are NOT CORRELATED WITH THE BEGINNING OR ENDING OF SECTIONS.  These size changes are also NOT CORRELATED WITH THE PAGE BREAKS (in case you were about to argue the similarity of page breaks and section breaks).  As I work through the document and scroll up and down editing here or there, the size of the thumbnails RANDOMLY CHANGE SIZE.  Sometimes this is correlated with me working on a section, sometimes I can work on a section and no change happens at all.  The thumbnails that change size often change back again when I scroll back to them later on. 
    So please ... Try to act like a decent human being and either help out, or go away.  STOP POSTING THAT WE ARE WRONG, when you DON'T in fact know we are wrong.  STOP INSULTING ME by assuming I am stupid. 
    Why are you even here if you don't want to actually HELP anyone? 
    To anyone else reading this:  I am having a real bad time with this fellow who is just the most insulting person I have met for a while, however many of my posts about him are being deleted.  If anyone knows (including the mods of this forum) of the proper way to REPORT or get rid of a troll/abuser like him on Apple Support Communities or a place to report his behaviour, please let me know.

    I have 100's of CDs that I have downloaded to my itunes library and they are in the library playable but they do not show up in the C drive under the iTunes Music folder under users.  Why are they in the libary and not in the itunes music folder. Win 7 OS.  When I look in the library under the get info screen it says they are in the folder itunes music, under the c: drive but when I actually go to that folder to look for them they are not there....HELP!

    Hello RumDog,
    I think this article will help you find the media in your library.
    Where are my iTunes files located?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391
    Discovering and changing the iTunes Media folder location
    Note: You would usually only change the iTunes Media folder location to share music between accounts on the same computer. See this article for specific steps on how to accomplish this. Also, see this article if you want to know how to move your music to a new computer.
    Mac OS X: Click the iTunes menu and choose Preferences.
    Windows: Click the Edit menu and choose Preferences.
    Click the Advanced pane. iTunes displays the location of your iTunes Media folder.
    You can then:
    Note where your media folder is, such as for backing up your media.
    Use the Reset button to reset it's location to the default (which is the iTunes folder).
    Click the Change button to select a folder for a new location. Once you change this location:
    If you make a new or alternate iTunes library, the new location will be used by that library.
    Existing files will not be moved unless you choose File > Library > Organize library and choose the option to "Consolidate files."
