Default Cannot Download Microsoft PowerPoint Templates

I use Office 2007 Powerpoint, but I have problems trying to download
templates. I keep getting a message "Template Download Error Message".
Following the instructions, I make sure I'm connected to the Internet, am not
in Offline Mode, and I keep trying to download several times without success.
The Error Message occurs everytime I try to download. Also, I checked to
make sure my PowerPoint program is activated. What else can I do to download
these templates without getting the Error Message?

Default Cannot Download Microsoft PowerPoint Templates

Hi Dizzy Don

Have you tried downloading them directly from the web page rather than
through PowerPoint?

Default Cannot Download Microsoft PowerPoint Templates

Hey, Lucy..thanks for your suggestion. I was able to download from the MS
webpage you mentioned. This site does not offer the variety of PPt Templates
than the ones listed within PowerPoint Presentations. I just wonder why I
can't download the latter ones without getting the Error Message I described.
Any ideas from "down under"?

I'm surprised all the same stuff isn't on the site, but I'll take your word
for it :-)

Can you download any templates at all? I've just tried it and I got an error
message for 'featured' but all the other categories seem to work. Walk me
through the steps you are taking.
