How do I use Presenter view without a projector or second monitor? (by Chirag Dalal)

Your computer supports multiple monitors and you like to use PowerPoint's Presenter view for delivering presentations.

How's that a problem? Well, it's not. But if you want to rehearse your presentation when you don't have a projector or second monitor handy, PowerPoint won't cooperate. Unless you have a second monitor plugged in, PowerPoint won't let you use Presenter view.

Smack it with a "secret" keystroke

Start the presentation by pressing Alt+F5 to practice your presentation in presenter view, even if you only have one screen. This only works in more recent versions of PowerPoint; it doesn't work in PPT 2016 or previous but does work in 365/2019.

Beat it over the head with software

Chirag Dalal discovered this slick solution: If you have Windows 7 and a dual-monitor capable machine (a laptop would do and you don't need second monitor), do the following:

  • Use Win+P keyboard shortcut to bring up the (Connect to projector) window.
  • Click "Extend" option. This will bring the second display output "alive" although no monitor/projector is connected there.
  • In PowerPoint, open your presentation and click "Slide Show" | "Set Up Show" item, select the slide show to display on monitor 2 and check the "Show Presenter View" box, click OK.
  • Now start slide show. The presenter view will be on your laptop while PowerPoint is gladly thinking that the slide show is being shown on the second monitor.

Or if you're a hardware person ...

If you don't have Win7, you might want to make a "dummy load" for your second VGA connector (thanks to Chris Watts for this suggestion). This is just a VGA connector that's been rigged up with resistors to make the computer think that there's a monitor or projector connected.

Google "vga dummy load' for instructions.

Paul at http://www.howtofixcomputers.com/forums/asus/k7v-freenas-system-wont-start-without-monitor-249753.html wrote this set of instructions:

I made my own dummy VGA connector, which functions as a "fake monitor".

It consists of three 75 ohm resistors, for R, G, and B.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VGA_connector

Connect 75 ohm resistor from pin 1 to pin 6 (terminates red) Connect 75 ohm resistor from pin 2 to pin 7 (terminates green) Connect 75 ohm resistor from pin 3 to pin 8 (terminates blue)

In terms of rough power dissipation numbers, say video amplitude is 1 volt, V*V/R = 1*1/75 = 0.013W. I think the resistors in mine are either 1/4 watt or 1/8th watt, whatever I had on hand.

Picture of thru-hole resistors, if you've never seen any

When you buy a VGA connector and snap-together shell, the pin numbers are printed in small print, next to the pins, on the plastic the pins are mounted in. The pin numbers will be the left-to-right mirror, of the picture in the Wikipedia article. (That is because the Wikipedia picture, is the video card end, and not the "fake" connector you hope to make.)

It is a good thing my electronics store doesn't stock DVI connectors. As a result, I don't have to research how to do those :-) http://datasheets.maxim-ic.com/en/ds/MAX3814.pdf

Powerpoint presentation without computer

I am running Powerpoint on a Mac, and I need to give a presentation but I won't have the use of a computer.  Is it possible to create a presentation in a format that can be exported to a usb stick, plugged into the projector and run from there?

Many thanks

If your presentation is quite simple and can be represented as a series of images (ie, it doesn't rely on animation, videos/sounds, transitions and such) then you can save it AS a series of images.  Your projector may be able to play these back from a USB stick, and the same is true of many modern TVs.

If you do require anything beyond a series of still images, I'd agree with Oliver's advice.

Using Powerpoint Presenter View Without Projector

This tutorial will show you how to use PowerPoint presenter view without a projector. If you are wondering how this could ever help you, then you haven’t read this amazing article . The article talked about how you can add extra notes to your Powerpoint slides. Only you get to see the notes during presentation, your audience will only see what you want them to see.

Now that you understand why you need this, it is time to explain how to use the PowerPoint presenter view on your computer without a projector connected. Although it is very simple to do and available on sites like the Microsoft Support Site , many people do not know about it. Even a University professor was surprised to see this when I activated it in his presence.

How To Use Powerpoint Presenter View Without A Projector

It is basically the same on Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows 7 and 8. I was able to try this out on Windows 7 and 8 myself. I have used it time and time again. Okay, here is how to do it.

  • Create your Powerpoint slides like you would normally create them (simple and not wordy).
  • Now press the Windows button + P to open the Powerpoint options, chose Extend option
  • Now, go to Slideshow in the top menu of your PowerPoint window and check the Use Presenter View box
  • Beside it, you can now choose Monitor 2 as shown in the screenshot below.

The Microsoft PowerpPoint Presenter View Screen

This process gives your computer the impression that it has been connected to a projector and that it is ready to be projected on a second monitor. Now you can add all the notes you want.

As shown in the image below, the bottom area of the screen is where you can add all the notes you want. What I normally do is to type whatever notes I need to add in a Word document or Notepad and paste in there. Honestly, it is not easy typing within that box.

Finally, to test if everything is working fine, press F5 to project your slides. You should see something like that in the image below. Your Presenter View is active and you can see how the screen is divided.

The upper left side is showing your main slides while the notes to go with each slides are being shown on the right side. Don’t worry, nobody else would see the notes you have added to the Powerpoint even after projecting it.

Below that you can also see the time of the day and the slide you are currently on (to monitor your progress). Also, you get to see the amount of time you have spent on the presentation. This will help you know when you are sending too much time on a slide.

This is how to use presenter view on Powerpoint without a projector. As projectors may not be available when you are preparing for the presentation, this method will hep you use the presenter view anyway.

How to Project a PowerPoint From a Computer

Microsoft PowerPoint files are the industry-standard for presentations. They contain individual slides on which you can put text, data, images or multimedia and let you flip through them, usually in support of a presentation or speech that you are giving or a discussion that you are facilitating. While creating a good PowerPoint can be quite challenging, presenting and projecting it is a relatively simple task.

  • Connect your projector to your computer by inserting either a 15-pin VGA or a HDMI connector and inserting the other end of the cable into the appropriate port on your computer. In either case, the connector will only go in the right way so you should not need to force it.
  • Turn on your projector by pressing its "Power" button and waiting for it to warm up and begin projecting an image. Boot your computer up at the same time.
  • Start Microsoft PowerPoint and open your presentation.
  • Set your computer to send an image to the projector if it is not already doing so. The procedure to do this varies from computer to computer, but typically involves holding down the "Fn" key and holding down one of the numbered "F-keys" above the row of numbers at the top of the keyboard. The correct F-key may have a picture of a monitor, a picture of a computer and a monitor or a text label like "LCD/VGA" or "CRT/LCD."

Whether you’re working from home, in an office environment, or simply seeking a convenient display solution, your computer monitor can serve as an effective alternative to a traditional projector.

To begin, ensure that your computer is equipped with the necessary video output ports, such as HDMI, DisplayPort, or VGA.

To begin, identify the available input ports on your television, which commonly include HDMI, composite, component, and VGA inputs. The widespread adoption of HDMI in modern televisions ensures seamless compatibility with a wide range of devices, including computers, laptops, media players, and smartphones.

Once you’ve identified the appropriate input port on your television, establish a physical connection by using the corresponding cable to link your source device to the television. Whether it’s a laptop, desktop computer, or media player, the process of connecting to a television is straightforward and typically requires minimal setup.

Once the connection is established, navigate to the screen mirroring or output settings on your smartphone or tablet, initiating the display mirroring process to project your slides onto the connected display device.
