Hullo again Ronni I have had another few "fiddles" with the PPS presentation. Basically same problem as yesterday - I do not receive the options to include "Fixed Timing" nor "Audio - include audio (sound files, movie audio), nor Include the slideshow soundtrack, nor include the slideshow recording".
So, I can certainly watch the presentation on my Apple TV (yea!). However, there are no sound effects nor music. Not to worry, the first part is great and hopefully one day I will work out how to retain/include the sound effects/music.
