PPT difficulty showing .wmv file - Flip4Mac loading

[manito2000]

Hello everyone,

I have a PPT w/ 4 .wmv movie files. The problem that I am having is that when I try to run my PPT...once I get to the movie clips I get a box saying that it's loading the Flip4Mac...or something to that effect (don't remember exactly what it says).

Problem is that it seems to freeze up and I have to restart my computer and re-open the file.

I'm trying to see what I can do to avoid this dumb error.

I love the fact that you have given zero information about your version of PowerPoint, the specification of your Mac, the sizes of your .wmv files, or anything else that can be used to diagnose your problem. That said, you cannot play a .wmv beyond .wmv9 using any software available on MacOS X.
