Windows 10: PowerPoint animation disappeared.

When clicking to enlarge the page of PowerPoint, there is no animation. I opened a few new slides the same way, I also checked my add-ins and deleted the template files, but it didn't work. Hope someone could help me. My Office version is Office 365. Windows 11.Thanks in advance.

PowerPoint on SmartPhones

Can you create a PowerPoint presentation with hyperlinks, animations, and transitions that can be viewed on smartphones and offline? I've converted a ppt to an interactive PDF but it won't show most animations and transitions. A PowerPoint Show requires
the user download a view app and we have thousands of users and can't guarantee they will do that. Seems so simple, but I'm stuck. Suggestions?

 

zip file to powerpoint?

Hi LBS62,

My name is Douglas and I am an Independent Advisor. I would like to help you. Let's try first to download your flash file from website:

"Open the video site in Firefox. Navigate to the Flash animation that you want to watch. Firefox is the easiest browser to use when downloading a Flash file directly from a website.

This method will not work with YouTube, Vimeo, and other streaming sites. This is for Flash animations and games on sites such as Newgrounds. To download YouTube videos, use the Method 4. If you right-click on the movie itself, you will not find the View Page
Info option. You must click somewhere on the page that is not the video or a link.

Visit the website with the animation you want. Once the animation has loaded in Firefox, right-click on the page. Make sure you're right-click on the page's background, not on the Flash object itself.

3

Select “View Page Info” from the right-click menu. This will open a box with detailed information about the site you are viewing. At the top of the box, you will see a set of tabs that can display different information about the site.

Click on the Film icon. This will show a list of all of the multimedia objects that the site contains, such as button graphics and banners. It will also contain the .SWF file of the animation. Click the Type column heading in the list to sort by object type.

Find the Flash file. The movie will be in .SWF format, and will be listed as an "Object" or "Embed" in the Type column. The name of the file is often similar to the title of the animation on the website. Select it from the list and click "Save As...". Name
the file whatever you would like and click Save.

Play the movie. Once you've downloaded the movie, you can open it in any browser that has Flash installed. When you first try to open the file, Windows may tell you that you need to specify a program. If your browser is not listed as a suggested program, search
your computer for it. Most browser programs are located in the Program Files folder on your hard drive, in a folder labeled by the company (Google, Mozilla, etc.)"

You will see the Properties dialog box. Next to Movie, enter the full path to the SWF file, including the filename and extension. You can either insert a SWF file from your computer (e.g., C:\movie.swf) or from a website (e.g.,
http://www..com/movie.swf). Set EmbedMovie to True.

The Properties window has a few other settings for fine-tuning the movie playback:

Set the Playing value to True if you want the Flash movie to start playing automatically.

Set the Loop value to True if you want the Flash movie to start over automatically after the playback is finished.

Close the Properties dialog box. To see the animation in action instead of a white placeholder, click on the SlideShow button under the View tab, or press F5 on your keyboard. To start the slideshow from the current slide, press Shift+F5.

PowerPoint file crashes PowerPoint upon opening

since this happens in some of the computers only, suggest that you open the file on working computer and copy everything and paste to a new powerpoint file.
most of the time it works to me. *Smile
