PP crashes when saving a pptx file as a ppt file

This has been reported on other forums (and on MacFixIt) but no answer has been offered. When trying to save a pptx tile as a ppt file, Powerpoint crashes every time.

Working in a mixed environment this is a huge problem since presentations need to be downsaved so that other people can open them.

I have all of the above and the save-as problem (pptx to ppt). Any solutions or work-arounds out there?

Additional to Cody's reply, run Disk Utility - Repair Disk Permissions after
any & all updates to OS X or Office.

I know the "run disk utility, make sure all apps are updated, etc. etc." is the standard first step of troubleshooting but in this case it doesn't help. I did all those things and save as still crashes in some cases. What happens it a new 4K file gets created and then the crash report comes up (text pasted below).

This happens with certain presentations, not all. If I create a new deck, type a few characters and save it it works fine (kinda eliminates all that Disk Permission stuff). There's something in the presentations (this happens to a number of my presentations so I doubt they're all corrupted).

I also did a save as from a pptx to pptx (just in case it was corrupted) and then did a save as to ppt. Crash.

I have exactly the same problem.

Brad Stone said:
I know the "run disk utility, make sure all apps are updated, etc. etc." is the standard first step of troubleshooting but in this case it doesn't help. I did all those things and save as still crashes in some cases. What happens it a new 4K file gets created and then the crash report comes up (text pasted below).

This happens with certain presentations, not all. If I create a new deck, type a few characters and save it it works fine (kinda eliminates all that Disk Permission stuff). There's something in the presentations (this happens to a number of my presentations so I doubt they're all corrupted).

I also did a save as from a pptx to pptx (just in case it was corrupted) and then did a save as to ppt. Crash.

Having not experienced this myself I don't know what to suggest. Is it
possible that the file contains something which may not be compatible with
the 97-2004 format? It doesn't have to be corruption per se.

Are the problem files ones you've created yourself? If not what is their
origin? How were they transmitted? Any additional details?

I have this problem and i have narrowed the problem down a bit. If I copy a slide from a problem pptx file to a ppt file, and then try to save, it ONLY crashes if the slide has some form of vector (PDF) object in it. So a simple slide with just text or images = no problem. Slide with vector data = crash.

This happens even though the Compatibility report says no problem. Can anyone replicate this?

Further to the above. The PDF data comes from Illustrator CS3 and is pasted using paste special. I can get it to save as an earlier .ppt format using Windows PP2007 but it rasterizes the vector data (quite horribly if the PDF has been resized within PP2008). So herein lies the issue - and previous versions of PowerPoint couldn't handle PDF objects, so perhaps there isn't an easy solution. Shouldn't make it *crash* though, really...

AND... PP2007 for Windows does not understand embedded PDF/vector images in a PP2008 for Mac file. So they look rasterized in PP2007 too. Eeek!

I believe what you're running into may be related to a current bug affecting
Office 2008 apps and their "receptiveness" to PDF files. As yet there is no
fix that I'm aware of.

You might try using Illy's Export command to create a version as a PNG (or
other appropriate format). PDF is the only thing involved.

I was able to replicate the problem. If I take out vector files, the saving
to .ppt works.

I did not have this problem before the latest OSX upgrade, I think. Comments
on this welcome?

Does anybody know, whether there is a fix coming to this?

This has been reported on other forums (and on MacFixIt) but no answer has been offered. When trying to save a pptx tile as a ppt file, Powerpoint crashes every time.

Working in a mixed environment this is a huge problem since presentations need to be downsaved so that other people can open them.

Hi, I had this same problem so I searched it on the internet and discovered
this forum. I have actually found a way to "cheat" it. Lol. You just need to
search out the file in your finder, Get Info and rename it from XXXX.pptx to
XXXX.ppt

Hmmmm... very sorry for the double post. Don't know how to edit it but i
realized that my "cheat" does not work. I tried transferring the file to
another com with windows and i couldn't open.

What you rediscovered is the fact that simply changing the extension
*doesn't* change the file type :) In this case it's still an OXML file but
is being misrepresented to the app trying to open it. As a result that app
is using the wrong method which not only results in a failure to open the
file but also could damage it.

This is a fairly major problem, as I create most of my Powerpoint images in Illustrator CS 3 and they look great as PDFs and in the Mac version pptx files, but cause all sorts of issues for clients (who generally use older PCs running older versions of ppt). I know some Mac users who never use the Mac version of ppt (and pptx) for this very reason.

Any suggestions or fixes are greatly appreciated, as I do not have the Windows version of ppt (and do not really use Windows).

This has been reported on other forums (and on MacFixIt) but no answer has been offered. When trying to save a pptx tile as a ppt file, Powerpoint crashes every time.

For awhile I got it to stop crashing by doing a whole slew of maintenance procedures: repairing permissions, deep-cleaning caches, rebuilding the directory with Disk Warrior.

But I've since rebuilt my HD, reloaded everything, and the problem has returned. I'll try the maintenance routines again and report back.

Sorry, but as yet there is no fix. You're certainly the best judge of what
produces the best results for your artwork, but you might consider PNG or
other alternatives if you have to save the PPt files in the older format. As
long as the output is "acceptable" it beats *unusable* hands down :)... and
I know I'm my own harshest critic.

I tried all these again and the problem still exists. PP crashes when saving a pptx file as a ppt file. These are PP files that I created, mostly in ppt, saved to pptx when I updated Office, and now can't save back to ppt format. Unlike other posters I have no embedded pdfs in them.

This problem started with the latest update to 12.1.2. It didn't exist before then.

Exactly - only recently did I start getting this problem. I make all our graphs/charts in Illustrator, and even our logos are .EPS files. I can save to .pptx fine, but saving as a .ppt will crash EVERY time. I have to go back in and change every image to JPEG or PNG, or make sure to Save for Web out of Illustrator CS3 (making it look horrible). Any vector based image will cause a crash.

This is not okay. This needs to be addressed.
