I was so happy to learn on this community how to embed or insert or add or tack to or glue or whatever term to use - a hyperlink in a PowerPoint 2013 slide.  Yay!

When I came back three days later I found what no one told me.  Powerpoint decided to disable that link, and that effectively made the whole presentation powerless and pointless.   When I click on ENABLE nothing happened.  Now because of this I have to go find the URL and go through the steps again to insert it.  I am quite glad I found this out the nigh before I was to use the PP presentation.

It is exceedingly annoying.

Prezi, here I come.

    Both the hyperlink and the graphic of the Youtube video disappeared out the Window... I mean off the slide.  Only a black rectangle reminds me of my futile endeavors.
