    On Mac, PowerPoint is installed as a separate app, not as a single Microsoft 365 app.

    Check these locations:

    1. Open Finder > Applications and look for Microsoft PowerPoint.
    2. Open Launchpad and search for PowerPoint.
    3. If Microsoft 365 was installed successfully, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and other apps should appear as standalone apps.

    If PowerPoint is not there:

    1. Sign in to your Microsoft account page and install Microsoft 365 for Mac from the Services & subscriptions page.
    2. If PowerPoint was installed from the Mac App Store, it also appears as its own app.
    3. After installation, open PowerPoint and sign in with the account associated with the subscription to activate it.

    If the apps are already installed directly from Microsoft, Microsoft AutoUpdate keeps them updated.

    1

    Press Command + Spacebar on your keyboard to open Spotlight.

    Type PowerPoint in the search box, you should then find PowerPoint to open it.

    2

    If not, open Finder.

    Click Applications in the left sidebar.

    Scroll down to find Microsoft PowerPoint, or if you cannot find that open the Office folder and you should find PowerPoint in there.
