Mike, just copy the URL to the presentation you uploaded and paste it here.

Hi Nick, you can edit and replace the file for a presentation on SlideShare so that you don't lose the link (or any comments and views.)

About the graphics, we've made some changes to our conversion process recently and a few bugs have crept in. We're working on eliminating them as soon as possible.

Yes, you can resize the embedded slideshow. There are two places in the embed where you need to set the height and width. Take a look at the screenshot below which shows you where.

Visit this page in IE8: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507...

It should tell you what version of the Flash Player plugin you have installed. Also, check your browser settings, IE has a setting where you can disable all active plugins and this might be turned off.

Rachel, Todd: We've fixed the bug with notes not appearing from PPTX files. You may need to re-upload your earlier presentations (using the Edit and replace feature so your comments and views don't get lost) to generate notes from them once more.

Let me know if you're still seeing problems with notes on SlideShare

Ashwan Lewis replied on May 12, 2009 11:21 to the question "Slide notes not showing up in SlideShare Notes tab" in SlideShare:

Rachel

The bug with notes has occured (and re-occured) for different reasons. Currently slide notes are not being created from PowerPoint 2007 files (pptx) We're working on fixing that in the next couple of days.

What file type are your presentations?

This kind of issue occurs when there's a problem with converting something on the next slide (i.e. the 3rd one here.) Either there are too many images on that slide, or a broken hyperlink or a complex layered background.

If you link the presentation here, I should be able to get the original file to investigate.

Are you sure you have the Flash Player installed and enabled?

Ashwan Lewis replied on May 06, 2009 14:19 to the question "Why did my agency's firewall just start blocking slideshare?" in SlideShare:

We now distribute the SlideShare content over a couple of new CDN (content distribution network) domains. It's possible that they are being blocked by your firewall.

If you can ask your IT admin to ensure that *.slidesharecdn.com is allowed you shouldn't have any trouble with SlideShare.

Ashwan Lewis replied on May 04, 2009 11:42 to the question "Audio syncing disappears when I publish - all syncing times lost when I go back into edit mode." in SlideShare:

Can you send us a link the presentation you're trying to add a slidecast to? Or your SlideShare id so we can investigate further.

Ashwan Lewis replied on May 04, 2009 11:39 to the question "How can I tie notes to my presentation? This is a must." in SlideShare:

Michael, I don't see any slide notes in the PowerPoint file you uploaded. Each slide only contains the default text of "Click to add notes."

If you add the slide notes in your original file and upload that, they should show up in a notes tab next to comments.

In case no slide notes are found, you won't see a notes tab.
