Slide Show Displays Incorrectly

[Jamie]

Here's an interesting one that I hope someone else has come across... I
have PowerPoint 2004 running on a PowerBook G4 with OS 10.2.8, when the
user switches a presentation to the Slide Show view, all the
information on the slide shifts down until some elements shift to the
top of the screen. It never used to do this, it just started, I'm not
even sure if it's a PowerPoint issue or not, however the display
appears normal in all other instances. Any help is appreciated,

Thanks,

Jamie

I have the exact same problem, except I"m running on a G3 iBook with
10.2.8. Anyone out there have a suggestion??

Is this a problem with just 10.2.8? Any solutions?

Hi,

I have been corresponding with Microsoft over this and I have solved
the problem by removing the Service Pack and other updates - to do
this you need to delet office and reinstall.

I have 10.2.8 and the problem appears to be caused by an
incompatibility or bug between the service pack / update and Jaguar.
However microsoft are unwilling to acknowledge this suggesting at one
point that the problem was Apple’s and I should contact them... Part
of the problem appears to be that no-one else has contacted microsoft
with this problem so if anyone else is having a similar problem email

(e-mail address removed)

and tell them about it!

The biggest frustration will problaby be that the support staff you
talk to won’t have a working knowledge of OS X and will be reading out
of a support manual but if enough people write to them about this bug
they should do something about it.
