iPod Touch & PowerPoint

The Possibilities of iPod Touch: Can iPod Touch Play PowerPoint?

The iPod is indeed a very powerful multimedia device. Basically, the line of the iPod is designed to provide audio and video entertainment. Because of this, you need to consider the fact that some features that palms have will not exist on the iPod, which include opening PowerPoint Presentation files.

True to its purpose, the new iPod Touch will also provide you with audio and video entertainment. It will also provide you with a way to view photos and make slideshows. Another feature that the iPod Touch will provide you is that it will be able to let you browse the internet with its WiFi feature.

However, just like its predecessors, the iPod Touch will not have PowerPoint software which will enable you to open and view PowerPoint Presentations. But there are two ways on how you can view PowerPoint Presentation files in your iPod. Although you still won’t be able to open .pps files, you will see that these two methods will be quite useful.

The first method is by exporting PowerPoint slides and saving it as image files. Import these image files in your iPod and you can create a slideshow using the image browser of iPod Touch. This can work but the voice over and music that is often associated with PowerPoint Presentations will be lost.

The second method is by converting your PowerPoint Presentation files to MP4 video files. Today, there are quite a lot of software programs like this available for purchase and download over the internet. With it, you will be able to convert your PowerPoint Presentation files to MP4 video files and import the converted files to your iPod Touch. Because it will convert it to video, the audio that is often integrated with PowerPoint Presentations will not be lost.

These are the things that you have to remember about iPod Touch. Although you can never really open PowerPoint Presentation files in your iPod Touch, you can still convert it to image files or video files which can be just as effective in presenting slideshows.
