SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to unpack a presentation on a Macintosh computer, you receive one of the following errors:
-or-
-or-
CAUSE
Pack and Go is intended to run only on the Microsoft Windows platform. The Pack and Go installation program (Pngsetup.exe) is a Windows-based application. In other words, this program does not run on a Macintosh computer. If you double-click a Windows-based executable file (.exe) on a Macintosh computer, the Macintosh attempts to open the file as a document and displays a list of programs you can use if you are running the Macintosh Easy Open control panel.
RESOLUTION
To use your presentation on a Macintosh computer, save the file in the PowerPoint 95 or PowerPoint 4.0 file format instead of using Pack and Go.
