Hi, I have a PowerPoint presentation that I use on Mac and iPad. It contains 3 videos. The videos will not play on PP for iPad but will on Mac. The videos will play on the iPad when not in PowerPoint. Does anyone know how I can resolve this so that they play in PP for iPad? thanks.
PowerPoint 16.65 and 16.66 (22090700) "arrange" menu item does not respond to mouse.
Noticed this first on the 16.65 build. Running on an M1 MBP with macOS Ventura latest beta (7) Powerpoint's "arrange" menu item does not work with a mouse. Initially was using MX3 mouse with logioptions, removed Logioptions and the issue remains. I can select "Arrange" and navigate to align etc with the arrow keys but there is no response from using a mouse. I updated to the latest build on the beta channel (22090700) and the issue is the same. Assume that is a bug. At least the arrow keys provide a workaround for now.
Cannot edit anything when PowerPoint is in Split Screen mode
I don't know when this problem started, but whenever I put the PowerPoint app into Android Split Screen mode, PowerPoint becomes read-only and I cannot edit anything. When I quit Split Screen mode, editing immediately becomes available again. I have an active Office 365 subscription and I am properly logged in to the account in PowerPoint. Word, Excel and OneNote do not have this problem at all. I remember that when I last tried a few months ago, I was able to edit when PowerPoint was opened in Split Screen. My phone is a Google Pixel 2 running Android 9.0 Pie. Please rectify the problem.What’s New in the Microsoft 365 app – March 2024

Hello, Microsoft 365 Insiders, We're back with an exciting new feature from PowerPoint! Who watches videos with closed captions or subtitles 100% of the time? We do! Now #PowerPoint for the web supports inserting videos with closed captions and subtitles. Originally, designed for people with disabilities, we now realize that captions are beneficial for so many reasons: watching videos quietly without disturbing others, heavy accents or foreign languages. Whatever your reason, inserting closed captions and subtitles in your embedded PowerPoint videos will allow you to both connect with your audience in the format they are familiar with while also being inclusive of people who are deaf or hard of hearing. Read our blog to learn more: Present more effectively and inclusively with video and closed captions in PowerPoint for the web #Msft365Insiders #AccessibilityReactions and Blue Dots for Comments available in PowerPoint for Mac, Windows, and web
Hello Microsoft 365 Insiders! Comment your way to great collaboration. We’ve added two new enhancements to comments in PowerPoint for Mac, Windows, and web: Reactions and Blue Dots! With reactions, you don’t have to type a reply – you can quickly acknowledge a comment if you agree with it. Just click the 👍 button. Then with Blue Dots for Comments, you can now visually scan the Comments window and quickly identify comments or replies that have been added since you last viewed the presentation. Reactions and Blue Dots in PowerPoint are available on the web and to Current Channel (Preview) users running: Windows: Version 2305 (Build 16529.20226) or later Mac: Version 16.76 (Build 23081101) or later Read the https://insider.microsoft365.com/en-us/blog/reactions-and-blue-dots-available-in-powerpoint-for-mac-and-windows to for more details.

Hi, Microsoft 365 Insiders! I am Monojeet Sinha, a Senior Product Manager on the PowerPoint for the web team. I am excited to share that you can now insert your own videos, from your computer, in your PowerPoint for the web presentations. We heard from many of you that this is something you wanted to do. We’re happy to deliver and give you the ability to better express your passions using your own videos. Add your own videos to PowerPoint for the web presentations Videos are an important part of storytelling. They help hold your audience’s attention so you can better teach, persuade, or entertain. While PowerPoint users have inserted millions of videos from online platforms like YouTube, Vimeo, Stream, or others, sometimes the right video is one you created. Anything from your child scoring the winning goal to your team celebrating the latest of your new product. Interested?
