Problems to upload Power Points
 
Hi everybody
I am having a lot of problems ( euphemism to say IT HAS BEEN IMPOSSIBLE ! ) uploading Power Points . Is it just me ? My computer ? My Power Points ? Bad luck ? Or have you had recently the same sort of problem. It lasts and lasts... and then it says there was an error ! ( my PPTs are all within the accepted size ! )
Thanks for telling me if you have had this kind of problem !

Hi Maurice,
 
I �ve had the same problem, too. I can upload smallish powerpoints wtihout any problem, but once they get over 1MB it happens just as you describe. I �ve been trying a couple of times most days for about three weeks, but with no success yet!
 
But I see powerpoints that are nearly 2MB in the recent contributions every day, so it must be possible.
 
I �m not sure if it �s a time of day thing (I knw people say there are better and worse times of day for sending things) or what.
 
But if anyone has an idea, do let us know. I �d be very grateful, too.

Hi Maurice.  
It is probable that is because of the size of its power point. It should have been surpassing the demanded size. Divide its work in two or more parts, he is like this lighter, smaller, and you can post it without problems for parts. Hugs H�lia

Thanks H�lia,
but one of my PPTs is only 400 KB, so it �s not so heavy !
If there are not so many people having the problem it could be then something to do with my computer !
Thanks anyway !

Dear Maurice, I �ve had the same problem as you. Especially yesterday evening, so I eventually gave up. It must be the speed of our internet connection...
