I'm currently running Powerpoint 2011 on my Macbook, and it won't save macros I write. What's worse, when I reopen a presentation and press Macros... under Tools, it crashes right away; I don't even get the chance to try to fix it. Can anyone help me?

It seems from the crashing that something is not working right. However, just to be sure, when you try to save macros, are you saving as a PPTM file? PPTX files won't save macros.
