For those of you having trouble with the monitor and laptop having the screens switched. I had this problem too. Go to your display settings and change the primary monitor. Make sure you check mark “extend this to my despktop” for both of them. This should work. If not then change the settings in powerpoint. You should be able to select which screen you want.

The issue I am having in presenter view is that the laptop slides do not appear until after text begins to appear on the secondary monitor. Any suggestions?

Also I am having issues getting a video link to play on the secondary monitor, but plays fine on the laptop.

I can’t get the Presenter View to work when using LotusLive. LotusLive viewers see my view rather than the Presenter View. Any ideas to resolve this?

Does anyone know how you can display presenter view on Macbook (running windows xp) without the second screen?

Ah – works on my Win7 Laptop.

Normally presenter view doesn’t work without a second screen. I found this annoying – I wanted the presenter view for studying my presentation – with just my laptop and no second screen coupled.

This is how I solved:
Press Windows + P: Choose ‘Extend’ for screen options. You can now switch the full size presentation to the ‘Monitor 2′ (which is complete invisible) and have the presenter view onto your main laptop screen.

Thanks for the tip & I gonna study my presentation now,

Maybe you solved the problem but here’s what I did. I had the same problem of the slides appearing on my laptop and the presenters view showing up on the monitor that the students see. I had to work with my laptop command, Function key + F5, and hit F5 until I hit the ‘switch monitors’ display command. I have to do this every time I set up the Presenter’s view as the laptop causes the screens to be reversed each time.

I’m having trouble with presenter mode too. If using a projector plugged into the laptop does that class as the presentation monitor so that I get the slides and notes on the laptop screen?

Many thanks

Unfortunately you can’t mark up the presentation with a pen-based tablet in PowerPoint 2003 in Presenter’s View. I suppose you can in 2007 since I see they’ve added a pen.
