Topic: Can not preview the show [Resolved]
New download yesterday morning as I tried the trial for 5 days in decided this was just what I wanted to prepare a slideshow for our school softball banquet - which is tomorrow at 6p - and I have to set up banquet hall, decorate, pick up food, prepare gifts .... this had to be completed today.
issue - when I try to preview the show from the project tab or the slide play button - the system crashes within 3 slides .... I can see the first 3 slides as the system goes to transition to the next slide - it crashes .... I wait to see if it will respond - as I can see the "Not responding" words at the top of the screen ..... it will never respond. so I hit cancel and it kicks me back out to the desk top - I reload the program .... get back to my slide show ..... and continue working on the show- I save every time I make a new slide ...as I have found it is very sensitive to kick me out.
I placed 3 tickets with tech support - I have search the internet for a phone number - very dissatisfied with tech support right now. I wanted a slide show presentation with spunk - Not the boring power point .... upon which is where I am at now... staying up all night and putting a power point together......
I did not get any kind of error message to give details with until this afternoon - I copied and pasted those in a support ticket....
let me say I was contacted this morning on one of the tickets .... from Diane Murray - she asked for me to let her know what exactly I am doing when this problem arises ..... I responded very quickly ..... and did not hear back the rest of the day.... I have left my need for urgency as well ..... as well as leaving my phone number.
I have read the tech support forum - I have tried updating my graphics card driver ..... I could not find a more up to date driver for my Intel Q965/Q963 Express Chip Family -
once hubby got home .... we saved a copy of the slide show on a thumb drive ..... and downloaded the software to his lap top..... we can get further on his lap top ...... but we have an issue there..... on the timeline/storyboard - everything is there - but when we do the preview on his laptop..... some of the pictures do not load ..... you can see them on the timeline/storyboard but not on the preview ......
I am at a loss ..... and just sick to my stomach literally ....... tums and pepto all day .... this has me so upset. I just wanted it to be special..... As I am fully disappointed ..... I also would like to request a refund ..... it is of no value to me if it won't work .
Here is what I got with regards to an error -

Thank you for your help......maybe someone out there can shed some light ....
