I think there's a setting in Powerpoint 2007 that I need to

Remember my last query? " Is this a Powerpoint issue or a MacBook issue?"

I think it's a Powerpoint issue.

Since I posted my previous query ( trying to record narration using
Powerpoint 2007 ) to the newsgroup, I¹ve discovered that the saved
Powerpoint files DO have the narration in them ‹ if I click on the speaker
icon for the slide I can hear my voice.

I just don¹t know how to make Powerpoint play my voice when I run the slide
show.

I've looked at the options available to me under Sound Tools and have
deselected "hide during show" and told it to "Play sound automatically" and
tested the "slide show volume" and that seems to be OK. None of these
changes helped.

Please advise on how to make Powerpoint 2007 play my narration while playing
the slide show.

My goal, when Powerpoint works as it should, it to run the Powerpoint file
(with embedded narrations) through iSpring for conversion to Flash format so
we can host the lecture as streaming video on Blackboard. iSpring just
encodes a soundless file whenever I cannot get Powerpoint to play my
narration as it should.

Should I have posted this query to another newsgroup or will some of the the
same informed people look at both groups (i.e., Windows and Mac Powerpoint
groups)?

Thanks for any advice.

You may get a reply here but more likely get one more quickly if you post to
the PC group:
