I have a bunch of purchased and free ppt design templates that I want to use on individual slides in a presentation. I can't get them to show up in the side bar so I can apply them to the indicated slides. I have installed them in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Templates. What I am doing wrong?|||I don't use design templates, but it appears that there is a little Browse icon at the bottom of the design sidebar. Click it - it will take you automatically to the template folder (where you've already put the templates), find the new template and hit apply.
Once you've applied the template, it should show up in the Available templates. Then, you could go and apply a different template and a different one if you wanted to load them all up.
In other words - PowerPoint doesn't appear to automatically recognize a template just because it's in the template folder, but once it has seen the template, it will stay with your program.|||To ensure they are in the correct folder, open a blank word document. Go to: Tools -%26gt; Options -%26gt; File Locations.
This will tell you where your computer is looking for it's templates. You can either change this location or you can move/copy your templates to this location.
Hope that helps. =.- )
PS - I may be stating the bleeding obvious but please ensure your templates are saved as .pot files for PPT templates.
