Online Movie Option Not Available On Office 365 For Mac Powerpoint Presentation

When you lower the level of macro security in Microsoft PowerPoint, and then open a PowerPoint add-in file (*.ppa), the new level of macro security may not be applied, and the add-in file may not run as expected. The add-in is listed as an available add-in in the Add-Ins dialog box, but the check box is not selected, and you receive an error message similar to the following when you attempt to select the check box:

PowerPoint couldn't load the add-in file name.

Cause

This behavior can occur if the following conditions are true:

  1. You attempt to open a PowerPoint add-in file by using the Open command on the File menu while the macro security level is set to High.
  2. You lower the macro security-level setting.
  3. You open the same PowerPoint add-in file by using the Open command on the File menu.

When you attempt to open an add-in file, and the add-in is not loaded because of macro security, PowerPoint temporarily stores (caches) the failure-to-load information about this add-in. PowerPoint cannot load the add-in after you lower the macro security level until it clears the cached information.

Workaround

To work around this issue, clear the cached information, and then load the add-in by following either of the following methods after you change the macro security-level setting.

Method 1: Quit and Restart PowerPoint

  1. Quit PowerPoint.
  2. Restart PowerPoint.
  3. Open the add-in file.
  4. Click 'I AGREE' to load the add-in.
