Powerpoint

When i try to open a presentation in PowerPoint 2007, I receive the following error message:

PowerPoint found unreadable content in Presentation.pptx. Do you want to recover the contects of this presentation? If you trust the source of this presentation, click Yes.

What’s wrong?

A quick Google search brought this up: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-word/docx-incompatible-between-word-2010-and-word-2007/2764c5ac-4f7c-4a6d-9419-9e37bddf82d8?auth=1

 

And there was this update mentioned, that should do something about new format compatibility: https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/kb/951944

 

Hopefully that helps and you can get it working. I do not use office 2007 myself, and I am not an expert, just happened to read this and used the power of the almighty Google. :thumbsup:

You can try using open office or libre office. They're free and they support most presentation file formats.
