Use CDex to Add WAV Headers to MP3 Files

When working with adding sound within PowerPoint -- be it adding sound to an animation or even
adding sound to a slide transition, you'll realize that only WAV files can be used as sounds in either
of these scenarios. What's more -- the same WAV file is always larger in size than its MP3 alternative
and since animation and transition sounds are always embedded within PowerPoint, you can end up with
really large PowerPoint file sizes! Note that adding an MP3 file for animation or transition sounds is
normally not doable since PowerPoint won't accept a file that has an MP3 file extension -- that's
unfortunate because MP3 files can be almost 10x smaller than WAV files.
Learn how to use CDex to add WAV headers to MP3 files.
Account Management in PowerPoint 2013
In PowerPoint 2013, and in other Office 2013 programs you typically need to sign in to a Microsoft Account so
that you can access settings, customizations, and even some files off the cloud. You typically do this by
managing your Account, right inside PowerPoint or another Office 2013 program such as Word and Excel -- the
Account Management window allows you to sign in to your Microsoft Account, and automatically connect to your
SkyDrive account. In this tutorial you'll learn how to access PowerPoint 2013's Account Management window,
and explore the options provided.
