Shared links to Powerpoint and Keynote presentations no longer work. "File too big to preview."
I have easily shared Dropbox links to my group members in the past for Keynote and Powerpoint. Now, the link is not to full presentation but to the first slide. Why?

It would be helpful to know what the limit is for the slideshows. I might be able to remove a few slides so that the link creates access to the slideshow again. I don't think it is practical to have my group members who are seniors download the entire slideshow. It could be significant on their machines. The slideshow serves as a reference and resource. Slides are updated regularly with upcoming dates and location, new information. Each monthly illustrative 'lesson' of 4-5 slides has taken a good amount of time utilizing presentation features as a technique. Using Dropbox worked well for us until at least June when we paused for summer. Why the change? Any suggestions?

288MB for files that preview as presentations.

Thank you.

I have split my large presentation into two parts so 'too large a file size' no longer applies. I sent myself a link to both parts through email to be sure it works before I send it to my group. The link does not work. I've highlighted it and used Command K as an extra step but it still doesn't work. Any advice?
