I'm very new to Storyline and am therefore working my way through the tutorials to make sure I can make the most of my trial. However, I am really stumped as no matter what I do, the error message telling me that Powerpoint cannot be imported into Storyline keeps coming up when I try to import.
I'm using the Powerpoint that was provided in the practice slides. This opens fine in Powerpoint. I have gone through all of the trouble shooting options but to no avail. I'm hoping I've missed something really obvious here, any tips would be gratefully received.
Hello, Brian. Thanks for those handy details, and a warm welcome to the community!
While Storyline 360 works with 32-bit and 64-bit desktop versions of PowerPoint 2010-2019 and Office 365 (desktop version only), it isn't compatible with:
Office 365 web apps
Office 365 mobile apps
Click-to-Run versions of Office 2010
Is your version of PowerPoint installed to your local computer, or is it a web app? I'll be standing by!
Hey, Lucie. Welcome, and thank you for this handy information! 🍎
Everything sounds great there! I'm curious to see if you'll run into the same import error on the latest Storyline 360 update (3.23.17522.0) – here's how to update the app to the latest one!
Could you give those steps a try and let me know what happens after? I'll be here!
Hi Katie, thank you for your answer. I finally uninstalled ppt + storyline, and updated those both softwares aaaand EVERYTHING WORKS now ! Happy to be able to work :)
