    I recently upgraded to Office 2013 and now I cannot publish any slides to a SharePoint 2010 slide generator.  I get the following error.  "17 of 17 slides that were being published to httrs://..... / failed.  Try publishing again."

    Any suggestions?  I really don't want to go back to Office 2010.

    Hi,

    From the description, I know that you cannot publish the sides from PowerPoint 2013 to SharePoint 2010 slide library.

    I have Office 2013 installed on my computer, however I cannot reproduce the issue.

    To troubleshoot the issue from your side, follow the instructions below:

    1. You can create one slide with Microsoft PowerPoint 2013 and check if it can be uploaded to a new created side library.

    2. Create a new PowerPoint document in SharePoint and open it in PowerPoint 2013, then try to save it to SharePoint. Check whether the same issue persists.

    Thanks.

    Once I have a slide in the slide library, I can edit it in PowerPoint 2013 and save it back no problem.  However, I can not publish any new slides from PowerPoint 2013, to an existing slide library or a new unpopulated slide library. 

    It is just the publish capability that does not work.

    The File > Share > Publish Slides command in PowerPoint 2013 attempts and then fails to publish a presentation to a SharePoint 2013 document library. (The SharePoint Slide Library has been deprecated in SharePoint 2013.)

    Does this succeed only when publishing to a bona fide SharePoint 2010 or 2007 slide library?

    Thanks.

    It's now 2015, I'm using Office 365 SharePoint online, created a couple Slide Libraries and have tried to upload from PowerPoint 2013 Pro, but it fails the same as the post above. I then opened the presentation on an old machine running Win 7 + Office 2010 and WAS able to publish the slides to the library. This is not ideal to have to switch to an old machine to publish slides to the library but it did work...

    My scenario is I use slide libraries to collect content for presentations at conferences, then I pick the relevant slides from the library and publish to a new presentation for each. Depending on the conference I may include or exclude topics as appropriate. The slide library is the perfect tool for this, and worked flawlessly in Office 2010.

    Also tried the same on a Windows 10 Preview 10049 machine with Project Spartan but got an error in the slide library page that IE 5.5 is the minimum supported browser (weird since Win 10 is IE 11+ ???)

    Is there any new information or suggestions for how to make this work with the latest versions of Office and SharePoint?

    I was having this problem on my SharePoint 2013 server (we are in the process of updating) but not on my SP 2010 server. I was able to get it to work by doing this, but it does not persists after reboot:

    1. Ensure the webclient service is installed and running on the SharePoint server (not sure if this matters but I did this earlier so it might be related). You need to install desktop services as a role or feature to get the webclient service. 
    2. Navigate to to the slide library through the file explorer. It should be something like this: \\sp13.SharePoint.com@SSL\site\Sales\Slide Library
    3. Copy and paste some slides through the file explorer. You should see them in the folder now.
    4. After I copied the items it seems to resolve the problem temporarily. I can then publish slides to the SharePoint Slide library. But after rebooting the problem comes back. Leading me to believe it's something to do with permissions. 

    In case it's important I am using Office 2013 32-bit on Windows 10 64bit

    We had this issue and after a few Site visits from Microsoft Premier Support, it was determined, that it was because we were disconnected from the internet.

    Sounds kind of odd, but the following article describes this issue in detail and a provides workaround for tricking Powerpoint into thinking it is connected to the internet (which sounds even odder, since it just needs to think it is connected):

    We have yet to try it, to see of it works, but it comes from a reliable source so I believe that it will.

    Currently we use Windows Explorer to put new files into the Slide Library, then edit them with 2013. However this only works when one slide is in the file. If more then one slide is in the file, it will not copy view Windows Explorer. When multiple slide exist in one file, we need to break it down to separate flies with only one slide in each.

    Not all organizations have the ability to make such modifications to "trick" the OS into believing it is online. There is a lot of security testing and paperwork involved which takes an immense amount of time.

    We really need Microsoft to publish a fix for this issue.

    Wanting to check to see if your organization has had success with this. We are having this exact problem in our environment. We have found that if we open the PowerPoint 2013 document and perform a "Save As -> SharePoint" and specify the library, this works. We cannot however publish from PowerPoint 2013 to the SharePoint 2010 library. We have also found this publishing problem to our new 2013 farm as well. Our organization uses a special build which contains all latest patches. An office from another site which maintains their own configuration is able to publish fine. Our techs have been unable to determine what patch triggers this problem as of yet.

    I will suggest all to remove the hidden data and personal information by inspecting presentations before trying to Publish the powerpoint to Sharepoint.

    The problem here is that we do have an internet connection. sigh. I really need to find a solution.
