How to Add a New Slide in PowerPoint
Method 1 of 2:
On Mac
-
Double-click your PowerPoint presentation if it isn't open. This will open the presentation in your Mac's PowerPoint program. -
Click the space between two slides in the sidebar. The sidebar in the left side of the PowerPoint window shows a summary of each slide in your presentation; clicking the space between two slides will mark that space as the point to which you add your new slide. -
Click Insert. This tab is in the top-left side of your Mac's screen. -
Click New Slide. It's in the drop-down menu below the Insert tab. Doing so will insert a new slide into the PowerPoint presentation.- If you decide to reposition your slide, you can click and drag it up or down in the sidebar to do so.
Method 2 of 2:
On PC
-
Open your PowerPoint presentation if it isn't open. To do so, you can double-click the file itself, or you can open the PowerPoint program and then select the file name from the list of recent documents. -
Right-click a space between two slides in the sidebar. These should be two slides between which you wish to add your slide. Right-clicking here will invoke a drop-down menu. -
Click New Slide. It's toward the bottom of the drop-down menu. A new slide icon will appear in the area you selected between the two slides.- You can click and drag your slide in the sidebar to reposition it in the presentation's order.
