Can't view some pictures in presentaions

[me]

Hi,
Someone in my company did a PP presentaion using his
MAC and says that the presentaion shows fine.
When he emailed himself the file to use at work using a
PC, non of his images shows up and they are replaced with
this:
"QuickTime and TIFF (uncompressed) decompressor are needed
to see this picture"

I asked him to do a pack and go to make sure that all the
images are imbeded in the presentaion but he said that he
still receives the same error.

What is the problem and how can we solve it without
redoing the whole presentaion on a PC?

Thanks

He should have the option to turn QuickTime compression off on his images.
He needs to do that on the Mac end.

have an access to a MAC and have no idea how to turn it
off.

Steve's suggestions are the ones I would follow.

I remember that once when this cropped up a long time ago, the user
emailed and told me which options he had to use to turn this off.
Problem is, I can't remember them, and I can't find that email! (That's
a good reason to keep things here in the newsgroup, folks!)

I *think* that when he saved his PPT file he had the option to save the
images using QT compression and he just had to say no. But since that
was so long ago, it could have been an option only available in whatever
older version of PPT he was using. ??

FWIW, here's a KB article that says to do basically what Steve
suggested.
