PowerPoint doesn't import ... at all!

I have a 12 slide PowerPoint presentation that contains high resolution graphics and videos. I want to import it into Storyline so I can synch graphics to the video and create an MP4 as well as have it to import into other storyline files for use in an LMS SCORM package. When I go to import the slides it ask me to select the slides, which I do by selecting all. Then I hit import into a new scene and BAM ... nothing. The scene is created but it is totally empty with no slides in it.

I have tried several times and let it sit for a long time thinking maybe the importation process takes some time. But nothing happens. My scene is empty.

Any ideas?

Hi Bruce,

Thank you for reaching out! 

When importing your PowerPoint presentation into Storyline, are there any error messages that appear? There could be a few reasons why a PowerPoint if failing to import. We have a great resource that provides more details and solutions here. 

After going through the guide, if you continue to run into importing snags, please let us know!
