Mac Forum / Applications / PowerPoint / August 2005PP Locks up when using slide sorter
I have a user who cannot use a particular PP presentation. Once the file is opened, if you try to go into slide sorter or view the presentation it locks up. I have tried everything from resaving (Save As causes the problem to happen as well) to reinstalling office. All the other PP and office files work fine. It is just this one file on this one pc. Several other users have the file and it works fine for everybody else. Office has been service packed and has all the updates. It could be a corrupt presentation. Try fixing the problem by creating a new presentation. Once the new presentation is ready, go to Insert > Slides from File, and select the presentation you're having trouble with. Select "Insert All Slides", and click "Insert". Now, go to Format > Slide Design. Under "Enable", select "All PowerPoint presentations", and locate the presentation you're having trouble with. Select "Apply to all slides", and click "Apply". Now, with the new presentation containing components of the old presentation, see if you're able to access the Slide Sorter. If so, you can continue using this new copy and can delete the old one once you've verified that no data has been lost.
