powerpoint presenter view not working mac 2021

Hi, I found your post when trying to trouble shoot the same issue on my husband's MacBook Air (an older Intel one). After about an hour of frustration not solving the presenter view notes issue, we stumbled upon something you may want to try.

Open a PowerPoint and enter Presenter View. Bring your cursor to the right side of the screen and look for it to turn to a vertical bar with a double headed arrow running perpendicular through its center (although you may only see the left most arrow head). While it looks like this, click and drag to the left. If you're having the same problem we were having, it seems my husband's MacBook defaulted to showing the slide full screen and squished the notes pane all the way to the right.

I hope this works for you!

How odd. Perhaps you can access Microsoft's support services from this page https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/start-the-presentation-and-see-your-notes-in-presenter-view-4de90e28-487e-435c-9401-eb49a3801257#OfficeVersion=macOS.

Appears to work correctly here. Are you sure you didn't pick the Slide Show view?
