Inking in PowerPoint 2007's Presenter View to Display Results on the Projector
(Problem: How to stop slides from advancing when inking during a presentation) (link) |
On PowerPoint 2007, Presenter View is an option under the Slide Show menu. Check the "Use Presenter View" box to enable it.
Presenter View expects your computer to be connected to a projector (or external monitor) where the projector is enabled as an extended desktop. This mode doesn't work if the external display mirrors the laptop display. When giving a presentation, the laptop/tablet's screen shows a small window of the slide content, navigation controls, and notes. The external or projected screen shows the full slide without the notes or navigation.
Enabled in PowerPoint 2007 is a button to ink on the current slide and have the results displayed on the external projector. However, when I tried this it kept advancing to the next slide after inking a stroke. I finally figured out how to work around this problem - select all the slides under "Animations", and disable "On Mouse Click" under "Advance Slide." Of course you can no longer click to advance, but that's not relevant when you have the navigation controls of Presenter View. One other hint: I have to click "apply to all slides" after unchecking "advance on mouse click" in order to get it to stop.
Unfortunately, Presenter View doesn't show mouse movements, so I would have to actually highlight the thing I'm referring to or draw a line to it or something.

How do I Add/Manage Phonebook entries in RightFax? (link) |
Adding Phonebook Entries
The RightFax Web Client lets you create a personal phonebook of fax and e-mail addresses. You can add both individual entries and group entries that let you easily send one document to multiple recipients. Phonebook entries can be private or published. Private phonebook entries can be viewed only by you. Published phonebook entries can be viewed by any other RightFax user on the network.
To Create an Individual or Group Phonebook Entry
- From the Web Client folder view, click the New Fax button. The Create/Edit Document page opens.
- Under Primary Information, click the Phonebook Search button.
- Click the New Entry button to create an individual phonebook entry or the New Group button to create a group entry.
- Enter a name for the entry in the ID box, and check the Published option if you want this phonebook entry to be available to other users on your network.
- If you are creating an individual entry, complete the addressing boxes. All boxes are optional but you must enter at least one fax number or e-mail address. If you are creating a group entry, type the phonebook IDs you want in the Members box, and press ENTER between each ID you add. Group phonebook entries can only be made from existing phonebook IDs. If you want to add a new fax or e-mail address to a group phonebook entry, you must first make it an individual phonebook entry.
- When you have completed the addressing information or added all the phonebook IDs you want, click the Save button. The new entry will be immediately added to your personal phonebook.
To Select an Address from Your Phonebook
- Under Primary Information, click the Phonebook Search button to display all the entries in your personal RightFax phonebook. You can select one phonebook entry per document. If you select a group phonebook entry, the document will be sent to all members of that group.
- Click the check mark next to the entry to which you want to send the document. This returns you to the Create/Edit Document page with the recipient's addressing information entered under Primary Information. If you selected a group phonebook entry, the phonebook ID will appear in the Name field.

How do I make a call on the LifeSize video conferencing unit? (link) |
The LifeSize Passport is a point-to-point communications device that uses standard internet infrastructure to transport the audio and video to the other end.
Dialing is done by “calling” the destination unit’s IP address. Just as every phone has a phone number, every device connected to the network has an IP address. The person you are calling will give you their IP address and you will “dial” that number. This is an example of a typical IP address – 137.113.161.15.

Why am I getting an error message when importing video from Flip Camera? (link) |
There is a problem running the latest version of FlipShare (the software that manages all your Flip videos) on older PCs. Basically, the software detects the processor on your computer and if your processor is not up to its standard, it will shut down, giving you an error message.
The solution is to download and install the older version of Flipshare. First uninstall Flipshare (Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs), then download and install "Flip Video For PC" v3.7 from here:
