Hello, I have an active Microsoft 365 Personal subscription with Copilot included. I’m trying to use Copilot in PowerPoint (Windows desktop app). The Copilot button appears, all the required settings are enabled, and the app is updated. However, when I click the Copilot button, it only shows explanations and doesn’t let me generate presentations or type instructions.I’ve already tried updating Office, enabling connected experiences, and running an online repair. Can you help me check if Copilot is properly activated for my account and help me enable it?

Hello I have the following data: HEREOriginally, I unpivoted the Value column that you can see in the sheet named Combined 2024 and 2025. This is a multi-select question from a survey and I wanted to be able to see all the answer options from his one question in one column.When I created a pivot table to look at this data by count and cut it by year, I see that the number of each response is being counted correctly, but the grand total for each is not. This is preventing me from easily getting percentages. When I change the pivot table summary to distinct counts, 2024 is being counted correctl

As reported here in 2019 - PowerPoint 2016 US English language copy / paste bug - Microsoft CommunityThere is a long standing bug in PowerPoint whereby text pasted into a table gets converted to US English no matter what the language settings of the original text or of the target cell. For example ...Copy text that is 'English (Australia)', paste it as unformatted text into a text box that is also 'English (Australia)' but end up with text that is 'English (US)'This can easily be repeated from a blank powerpoint file with no styles or templates and has been present for many, many versions of P

Purchased a new PC. Can't activate Office 365. Problem appears to be this, and I don't know how to correct it. Up until January 2025, I had EMAIL 1. This email shows both the old and new PC under devices. Email 1 also says 365 is a trial (my family subscription renewed January 2025). In January, for some reason, I changed to EMAIL 2. Email 2 shows only my old PC. Email 2, also, shows the subscription details and the 1/25 renewal. Because of these two conflicting emails, I'm not able to activate Office 365.Any suggestions on how to combine everything under one email address and to then

Word has "Text Effects and Typography" but to get it into PowerPoint it has to be installed at Options and does not work.How do I get it to work, please?Word has so many extraneous bits cluttering up the Ribbon that I cannot get rid of:Include Japanese Greetings, Aptos Display, and a whole list of Asian fonts in a window above the normal fonts. The Aptos one keeps kicking my Arial off and taking over as the default and everything I copy comes with a double underline.I've tried to remove the extraneous stuff but couldn't so a MS tech agent suggested I use Options > Customize Ribbon and creat

I purchased an Office 2024 single use license via Groupon. I downloaded the software and entered the activation key, but when I went back into my computer it says it is unlicensed. I tried the activation key again and it says it is invalid. When I go to my installed apps it only shows the Microsoft Office LTSC Professional Plus 2024 software along with a Microsoft Teams Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office. I have only used the key on this computer so I'm not sure why the activation didn't stick and why it is saying I can't use the key on this computer. Thanks.

There are many ways to share desktop Microsoft Access for multiple users' simultaneous access. I am not talking here about sharing MS Access in the same network. I need to share it among several users outside my network. What is the cost-effective solution that I can use, and how? I tried using SQL Server to share the MS Access tables, but kept having several technical problems, as some MS Access codes are not so compatible. Any idea what other solutions that I can use at a very low cost? I don't want to jump into expensive solutions. Any help?
