All other directions described in this document will be applicable to both windows and mac because we are using the university-provided PowerPoint account. How do I record a narrated slideshow? Select the app labeled “powerpoint” found under the list of Office 365 apps (refer to question 2 - How do I find Office 365 in my Outlook account? for a more detailed explanation of how to get here). After PowerPoint opens, select “new blank presentation”. The app will open and you should see a variety of options appear at the top of the screen (file, home, insert, design, transitions, animations, review, view and help). To the right of the word “help” you should see “tell me what to do” and “open in desktop app”. Select “open desktop app”.
