Jul 20, 2016 I have Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac installed, v14.5.6 I have been unable to prevent the Microsoft programs (all 3) from launching automatically when I boot my Mac. I've been into user accounts in preferences, and assured they are not listed as login items. I've force quit the programs before shutting down.

PowerPoint 2011 for Mac enables you to work with various types of sound files such as MP3, WMA, or WAV. However, inserted sounds are alwaysembedded within your presentation, which is different from the default behavior in previous versions of PowerPoint which always linked sound filesrather than embedding them. This has a plus side since you now no longer have to worry about linked files getting misplaced or lost. On the flip side,this can balloon file sizes. Having said that, it is still a good practice to keep your sound files in the same folder in which you save yourPowerPoint 2011 presentation -- even before you insert them.
Follow these steps to insert sound clips in your PowerPoint slide:

- Navigate to the slide where you want to add a sound. Within the Home tab ofRibbon, locate the Insert group and click the downwardarrow next to the Media button to bring up the menu shown in Figure 1. From this menu, choose theAudio from File option (highlighted in red in Figure 1).

Figure 2: Audio from File option within Insert menuTip: You can also insert sounds into your slide through the Media Browser -- look at ourMedia Browser (Audio Tab) in PowerPoint 2011 for Mac to learnmore. - Either of the ways brings up the Choose Audio dialog box, as shown in Figure 3. Navigate to the folder whereyour audio clips are saved, and select a file.
Figure 3: Choose Audio dialog box - Now, click the Insert button (highlighted in red in Figure 3 above) to add theaudio to the active slide and embed it as part of your presentation.
To link rather than embed, select the Link to file check-box (highlighted in green inFigure 3 above) located within the Choose Audio dialog box. Link to File does not store the audioclip as part of your presentation but links it -- this is the same as the default behavior in previous versions of PowerPoint (PowerPoint 2008 andearlier). If you do select the Link to File check-box, always copy your audio clip to the same folder as your presentation before youinsert it within your slide. - Irrespective of whether you embed or link, PowerPoint will place a sound icon in the center of the slide, as shown in Figure 4.Note that you also see Player Controls, which is new for PowerPoint 2011.
Figure 4: Audio icon placed on slide - You can use the Play button on the Player Controls (below the audio icon, as shown in Figure 4 above).
If you want the sound to play automatically without having to click the Play button, you first select the sound icon so that theFormat Audio contextual tabs is active on the Ribbon, asshown in Figure 5 (highlighted in red).
Figure 5: Format Audio tab of the Ribbon activatedNote: The Format Audio tab is a contextual tab. Contextual tabs are special tabs in theRibbon that are not visible all the time -- they only make an appearancewhen you are working with a particular slide object which can be edited using special options.
This tab offers you different options to control the playback of the audio you have selected. Within the Audio Options group, locatethe Start option (highlighted in green in Figure 5 above) - this brings up a drop-downlist, from this list select the Automatically option (highlighted in red in Figure 6).This will make the selected audio play automatically when the slide containing it comes up inSlide Show mode.
Figure 6: Automatically option selected within Start drop-down list
Note that the default option is On Click -- this plays the sound only after you click the Play button on the Player Control. Inaddition, you can also see a third option, Play Across Slides in the drop-down list shown in Figure 6 -- this spansthe sound across slides and we explain this in a subsequent tutorial. - Save your presentation.
