You can but I would go with a little more expensive one. This one good for movies and DVD projections. If your going to use it all the time for power points. I would invest into a more name brand one.

Yes i tried, no problem for ppt. You can show Only presentation, dont use for video. I like this product, 3d performance and hd quality good.

I have used it with my laptop, it worked fine. I have not tried it with my Surface. The projector was not powerful enough to show the powerpoint to a large audience well. Using it my home, it does great.

Yes, I am a middle school teacher, and I used it to show PowerPoint presentations to my class that I had saved on my computer's hard drive, and presentations that I had saved on my thumb drive. In addition, I was able to show movies I had made using Movie Maker, and DVD's that I had purchased. It's a very good projector!

I think I bought mine at B+H photo. Their we site doesn't list it, but under accessories for the 220 they list Honeywell - PPRF Wireless PowerPoint Remote, which I assume is compatible, but you should check with B+h or Honeywell or 3M. BTW, I have to jump through hoops to get my slide shows in the order I want - it seems the folders only organize themselves chronologically by modification date. Does anyone know if there is there some special software I should be installing on the projector?

I am sorry you are having problems. I also ordered this projector, but promptly sent it back as I was dissatisfied with it. I recommend you do the same. I ordered a different model and am very happy with it. I use it for Keynote presentations as well as showing movies. I could never have done that with this model you have. I then ordered the Optoma W303, yes, more expensive, but IMHO well worth it. As they say, "you get what you pay for, if you don't pay much, you don't get much".

No, that's not possible with this projector. Focusing on the projected image merely insures that the resolution of the picture is sharp and clear...

I don't know. The seller, who specializes in slide projectors, would be able to answer this question.

Can I use this by itself instead of an overhead projector? If it takes pix, then how does it project it to screen?

I would not recommend it for this projector. You may not be able to support properly.

I have never tried a pdf file. The resolution is so poor, I'm not sure you could even read it. I wouldn't recommend this projector for any presentations at all.I used it strictly for halloween digital animations.

It has a mini display port, so if you projector is compatible with that, then yes.

If the projector really is a 3D projector, you must switch it into SBS mode. Any 3D projector capable of SBS mode should work fine.

yes. the projector is like a Monitor to provide the image. It has nothing to do any operating system.

A projector is not needed. The remote acts the same as the space bar or page-up/page-down keys and more if you are running something like PowerPoint.Good luck.

The projector did well during PowerPoint's (primarily text) the issue is the length of time the projector would be on. Mine died/shut itself off/overheated on a regular basis every 15 to 20 minutes.

You use the button on the projector. I've learned that you have to be careful with what I put in a PowerPoint. I always double check my slides on the projector to make sure they all work correctly. Also fancy animations don't work.
