I had a Power Point 2013 presentation I created back in January that originally saved to MPEG4 format fine. I reworked it this weekend and this time around it saves all the way to the end and then kicks out an error saying Power Point couldn't finish creating (filename). Do you want to try again?



I Googled the error and saw many people had problems with trimmed audio in their presentations causing the same error. So, what I did was create a completely new template right from scratch inside Power Point and gathered up all the video, audio, and pictures I used in the presentation and laid them in place. Before I set the animations and timings up I tried to save and it saved fine, so there's nothing wrong with a particular file in the presentation. However, AFTER I set up the animations and the timings and tried to save I got the same error again as above.

Obviously there's nothing wrong with a particular file; whatever it is is in the animations and timings. I've created many Power Point presentations with very complex animations and all saved just fine. I don't see why this one's any different as it's not nearly so complex as some of my work. Anybody have any suggestions on what to do here? Even recreating the entire works from scratch didn't help. Won't save in either MPEG4 or WMV format.

Thank you,

Chris
