How to View PPS with QuickTime Player on Mac

PPS is just another default format in PowerPoint which is opened directly as slide show mode after double clicking. While in PPT format, you need to click F5 to view the PowerPoint presentation.

The benefits of saving PowerPoint as PPS format are:

1. Saving time

2. Good for formal presentation conference

3. Prevent from modification

This guide contains two parts:

1. Converting PPS to MOV video form viewing on Mac

2. Save PPS as PPT format for editing

Part I: Convert PPS to MOV

Load PowerPoint files.
