Logos 10 - Export to Powerpoint on iMac hangs and never completes

I have tried all morning to export a small sample lesson (7 slides/269 words) to powerpoint on my iMac w/ Ventura Operating System (yes, I have powerpoint for Mac).  When I do, Logos just hangs up saying that it is exporting but nothing ever happens.  I looked at other posts but I could not find where this issue was resolved other than some people seem to have random slides that caused the issue.

    This might be unhelpful but... you might try exporting to Keynote and then exporting to Powerpoint from there. This would eliminate any Logos Mac to Microsoft Issues. Keynotes exporting in Powerpoint format seem fairly robust.

    It might also indicate whether this is a Logos or a Powerpoint problem.

    Mike,

    I was excited to try your suggestion, but interestingly, there is not an option to export to keynote.  Here is a pic of the dropdown.

    Hi Donna

    I said it might not be helpful... [;)]

    And I am not sure where you are trying to export from.

    Could you point me in the right direction and I will play at it here.

    Mike,

    Sorry, I just realized that I hadn't included that in my initial post.  I am in the Sermon Builder in Logos 10.  I'm using a Mac with the newest Ventura operating system (13.0.1).  Thanks for your help.

    NEW UPDATE!  I don't know why, but I just tried again and it did export SOME of the slides to powerpoint.  I did nothing different, so not sure why it somewhat worked this time.  I did have 3 slides  that had a different background and those 3 slides did not export.  I don't know if it's that particular background or just the fact that they were different.  I'll keep playing with it, but wanted you to know I did get something for a change.

    Thanks for the update Donna

    The omission of the 'Export to Keynote' seems a bit Windowscentric. :-(
