Symptoms

When you try to open a PowerPoint for Mac presentation or application it either hangs with spinning wheel or does not open at all.

Resolution

To resolve this issue, follow steps in this article.

Step 1: Check Hard Disc name

Check to ensure the Hard Drive icon has a name to it. The name should not be all numbers but can have numbers in it as along as the name starts with a text character(s). There should be no special characters like, periods, commas, semi-colons, quotes, etc.

  1. Quit all applications.
  2. On the Go menu, click Computer. Your hard drive should be listed. The common name of the hard drive is 'Macintosh HD'. E.g. 'Mac HD 1' '1 Mac HD' .

To rename your hard disk:

  1. Click to select the hard disk.
  2. On the File menu, click Get Info.
  3. In the Name & Extension type or edit the name. For example, type Macintosh HD.
  4. When done, click the red circle button on top.

Step 2: Move AutoRecovery files

Important

The location of certain files are different if you have Service Pack 2 (SP2) installed. To check if it is installed, open PowerPoint, and then click About PowerPoint from the PowerPoint menu. If the version number is 14.2.0 or above, you have Service Pack 2 and you should follow the Service Pack 2 steps when provided in this article.

If there are too many PowerPoint items in this folder userDocumentsMicrosoft User DataOffice 2008 AutoRecovery or Office 2011 AutoRecovery these files will load into memory when Powerpoint launches and can cause memory issues as well as file save issues.

General rules

  • Fill in the relevant fields only. Leave the rest blank. If you know a particular 3D renderer is used but aren't sure which version of the renderer it is, set it to true.

Field breakdown

Do not list render versions or APIs that can be forced for a game but otherwise is not confirmed working entirely for the whole game! A present issue on PCGamingWiki is that editors mistakenly lists various Direct3D versions as supported by games solely because the underlying engine they make use of supports such a version (most commonly for Unity and Unreal Engine games) and because a command-line argument can be used to force the engine to make use of that particular version — but without actually confirming full support for the game itself and its assets. This creates inaccuracies and misinforms other readers attempting to and expecting a fully functioning game but instead ends up with a broken game that barely works, suffers from major limitations, or various bugs.
FieldDefinitionHow to findNotes
Direct3D versionsThe versions of Direct3D the game can be rendered in.Check the minimum system requirements for the game. The DirectX version required is what the game is using. Alternatively, some games have multiple renderers available and can be toggled in the video settings. Finally, some screen recording tools (like Bandicam) have an API indicator, stating the exact version currently being used.Also called D3D. Can only be found in Windows-based games. Newer versions of the API are restricted to newer versions of Windows (Direct3D 10 requires Vista or newer).
DirectDraw versionsThe versions of DirectDraw the game can be rendered in.Check the minimum system requirements for the game. The DirectX version required is what the game is using. Alternatively, some games have multiple renderers available and can be toggled in the video settings. Finally, some screen recording tools (like Bandicam) have an API indicator, stating if the API is being used in general.Also called DDraw. DirectDraw was deprecated in DirectX 8, making it a legacy API. The latest version available is 7. Very rare to find any modern game still using the API. Can only be found in Windows-based games.
WinGSupport for the WinG API.Old API used for some early '90s games on Windows, later superseded by DirectDraw/Direct3D/etc.The game may prompt to install WinG or it may be mentioned in the manual or readme. Can only be found in Windows-based games.
OpenGL versionsThe versions of OpenGL the game can be rendered in.Check the minimum system requirements for the game. Sometimes the OpenGL version required is stated. If not, checking the latest OpenGL version supported by the GPU required can give an accurate ballpark figure. Alternatively, some games have multiple renderers available and can be toggled in the video settings. Finally, some screen recording tools (like Bandicam) have an API indicator, stating if the API is being used in general.Harder to determine compared to the other APIs. Mainly found in Mac OS, OS X, and Linux games, but can sometimes be found on Windows.
Glide versionsThe versions of Glide the game can be rendered in.Check the minimum system requirements for the game. Sometimes the Glide version required is stated. If not, checking the game installation folder for the DLL file can give the major version used (glide.dll=Glide 2.1, glide2x.dll=Glide 2.4, and glide3x.dll=Glide 3.0). Alternatively, some games have multiple renderers available and can be toggled in the video settings.Legacy API only found in early 3D games (1996-early 2000s). The latest version available is 3.10.00.30303. Some games refuse to run or provide higher quality visuals without a Glide-enabled GPU. Use a Glide wrapper like nGlide to bypass these restrictions.
Software modeThe game has a software renderer available (i.e. 3D rendering is all handled by the CPU, instead of the GPU).Check the video settings for a renderer toggle or option along the lines of 'hardware acceleration', 'hardware rendering', or 'Software mode'.Usually found in early 3D games (1996-early 2000s). If the software mode uses another API (ex. DirectDraw), make note of it in the respective fields. Being able to toggle between software and hardware-rendered cursors does not count. Leave the field blank if a software mode is not available. Do not use this field for games that are only available for DOS or PC booter (use the DOS modes field for these systems).
Mantle supportThe game supports the Mantle API.Check the video settings for a renderer toggle. The developer's official website, game feature list, or game manual may also state it.Legacy API that was made redundant as a mainstream graphics API by DirectX 12 and Vulkan, making existing support very limited. Only available for AMD GPUs. Leave the field blank if Mantle support is not available.
Metal supportThe game supports the Metal API.Check the video settings for a renderer toggle. The developer's official website, game feature list, or game manual may also state it.Only available for macOS (OS X). Leave the field blank if Metal support is not available.
Vulkan versionsThe game supports the Vulkan API.Check the video settings for a renderer toggle. The developer's official website, game feature list, or game manual may also state it.New API that was recently released, making support limited. Considered the successor of OpenGL and is equivalent to DirectX 12. Leave the field blank if Vulkan support is not available.
DOS modesThe display modes available for a game.Check the system requirements for the game. Can also be found on the retail box.Only for games with a DOS/PC booter release or version. Some display modes may be exclusive to certain releases. This row is only shown when a DOS or PC booter release date row is present in the Infobox.
Shader model versionsThe versions of the High-level shader language the game supports.Check the system requirements for the game. The DirectX version required can determine the Shader model used (see DirectX and associated Shader model versions).Also called the High-level shading language (HLSL) or Shader model. Only for games using Direct3D 8 or newer. Most games use just one version, but some have support for multiple.
ExecutableWhat executable (or binary) versions are available.Check the system requirements for the game. Sometimes a 64-bit OS is required. Alternatively, running the game on a 64-bit system and checking the game process in the Task Manager is a reliable method (32-bit applications will have a tag next to their process, 64-bit apps will not).64-bit applications started appearing around the mid-2000s, but did not become more commonplace until a few years ago. Most modern AAA releases require 64-bit OSes. The field is not applicable for DOS-based games.

DirectX OpenGL equivalents

For DirectX 12.x, OpenGL has no equivalent version. The closest equivalents available are Mantle and Vulkan, both entirely separate APIs.

Random Acts Of Physics Mac Os Download

For games using both DirectX and OpenGL, it may be difficult to determine what version of OpenGL the game is using. The developer may not provide a specific version.
