PPT Presenter View preview slide not keeping up
Hi all, I'm trying to use Powerpoint to project supertitles (captions) live for an opera on a Macbook. Been a while since I've used the software and the current version of presenter mode is giving us some issues. We've got the current slide in the top left, the next slide in the top right and that's all great. Then we have the preview of the current slide at the bottom and every time we go to the next slide it's doing this sliding motion to the next slide even thought the slide show itself has no transitions. The slides at the top work the same as the slide show so we can work with it but it's a kind of really distracting having the slides at the bottom get way behind and glitch out because we're flying through some of these slides. Does anyone know a way to hide the bottom preview or disable the timing on it so it just snaps to the next slide like the actual slide show does? All timings of everything are disabled and set to manual or zero. I just can't find any option regarding that section of the Presenter View. TIA.
Disable Copilot in Microsoft 365 Personnel et Famille
Hi, I was particularly annoyed to see the Copilot icon appearing recently on all products (word, excel,...). Impossible to disable it on Mac. Particularly bugging as I definitely do not want to either test or use Copilot. What can be done? Or when the issue will be solved? BR
My Word Add-in works in Windows and in Word online.But it fails in Mac at getFileAsync() method call
My add in works perfectly fine in Windows10 but when I upload the manifest file under com.microsoft.word/Documents/wef directory in mac os x (I am using EI Captian), I can see the Add-ins in word , and I am able to choose my add-in. My Add-in loads perfectly fine in Mac also and I am able to navigate to home.html and able to execute the custom login functionality. As part of the app functionality I need to call getFileAsync method. In Mac it fails and it does not show any error or it does not show anything in the logs. I tried to setup Vorlon to debug, but when I launch the web app from browser its able to connect to Vorlon (it show the client in vorlon dashboard), but when I trigger the app from within the word (by clicking the Add-ins button) Vorlon is not picking the client. Hence I am not able to test what is the issue with getFileAsync() method with Mac OS. Is there an easy way to debug the app, as it works perctly fine in Windows. I need to make sure the office Api's should run properly in mac. Please let me know if you have any pointers on this. Thanks.

Hello, Microsoft 365 Insiders! This is Priya Ganta from the Outlook for Mac team. If, like me, you have multiple email accounts configured within Outlook or have long shied away from adding your personal accounts to your work Outlook, I have some great news for you! I am excited to announce a new feature now available for Outlook Mac that lets you create a distraction-free experience across multiple accounts. Profiles in Outlook for Mac In Outlook Mac, you can now create profiles – for example, one for your work account, and another for your personal account. You can then select your work profile and Outlook will not bother you with any notifications from your personal email accounts. Similarly, if you select your personal profile at home, Outlook will not bother you with work-related emails. With one click or by pressing the Control+Tab keys, you can switch between Outlook profiles in seconds. You can even automate switching with Siri automation. Switching to my personal profile every weekday evening after 6pm and then switching back to my work profile at 8am is just one example. Until now, you couldn’t mute notifications by account, or show only certain accounts when in a focus mode. Using profiles, you can now: Theme your work profile to be a different color than your personal profile. Switch between various Outlook to help with work-life balance. For example, you can switch to your personal profile, every weekday after 6pm and switch back to work at 8am, the next day. Set up as many profiles as you need to best manage your time and your inbox. Define different Outlook window appearance for different profiles. Tie your email accounts within Outlook for Mac to Apple’s Focus Filters. The possibilities are endless! Head over to the blog post to learn more and see other updates coming out soon!

UI for custom font and color schemes in Office for macOS
Hello, I am not 100% sure if this is the correct discussion space, but: until now there is still no user interface for macOS users to create a custom font or color scheme! On Windows it is so easy; on macOS you have to dig up weird directories and write an XML file. What gives? Best, Satrio
