Re: [H] Powerpoint to DVD stand alone playable media

Keynote for the Mac has an export to iDVD option, it will let you burn  
to a DVD with ease..


I did find some shareware apps and pay-for apps that let you convert  
ppt files to AVI and such...

Hello,

If I were to make a PowerPoint presentation, is there a way to make it
into something (a movie?) that would play on anyone's stand alone DVD
player? If so how or what would one use? Should I consider using my
iMac to do this? Thanks in advance!

[H] Thank you Collective!

2008-07-21 Thread DHSinclair

I would still have a dead server without the collective. Thank you all!
Without your help (over the past 67 msgs!) I would still be scratching
my head. I really do appreciate all of your suggestions and help.

My w2kServerSP4 is up and running once again! And, it only took 80 Win
Updates to come fully back! LOL!

The ' primary application(s) for the ESET lanupdsrvr, RAS, and RAC are
reinstalled and running as expected.

The RAID did reformat properly. Eraser v5.82 cleared it of anything windows
missed. Somehow, I gained ~200MB of space; but am not fully reloaded.

ATM, I have about 1/2 of the past applications reinstalled. I have not brought
the data back to the RAID yet. All in good time :)

I did have to accept IIS, Indexing Svc, DHCP, and DNS during the default
install of the Windows "Deli-basket" for the OS.  I believe I have now
properly de-installed/stopped/disabled the above 4 services.  I no longer
get event logs and login windows about "some service did not load.".
In time, I will further tweak the services. But, I will ask first!

Again, thank you all for all your help.
Best,
Duncan



Re: [H] Adobe does it again.......

2008-07-21 Thread DHSinclair

John,
Even stranger is that Adobe now seems to force V9 even when my machine does 
NOT meet their presented 'system requirements!'  It took me the better part 
of an hour to get Adobe to point to, download, and install V8.12.  Really 
odd and a bit scary for us antique users.. :)

Best,
Duncan

installed.

Why should we have to waste time un-installing things we did not want?

Arseholez.

I tried 2 different power adapters and neither worked so I guess it's the
charging/power circuit inside the laptop.
