Hi,

I created a master slide but for some reason, it won't paste on any
presentation. Please save me from pulling out my last hair.

Thanks
 
Which version of PowerPoint do you use? Make sure that you inserted pictures
etc. in Slidemaster View, not in Normal View. Save as a template in the
Template folder.

Best regards,

After I make a master slide, from my understanding you right-copy-click the
thumbnail, and just paste the slide in any presentation, when i click paste,
nothing happens.

Is there a easier way to use a master slide in the same [resentation?

Thanks!

Go to the Home tab and click the arrow beneath "New Slide. Choose the one
with the appropriate layout.

When you're in Master View, each small thumbnail under the big master
thumbnail is a slide layout. The slide layouts inherit their settings from
the slide master (the big one at the top).

When you go back to Normal (editing) View, the gallery of layouts you see on
the Home tab | New Slide (arrow below that button) is populated by all the
slide layouts you saw in Master View.

I think what you may need to do is, in Master View, create a new slide
layout, give it a name, and then don't do anything else to it -- it should
look like your master slide. Then go back to Normal View, to Home | New
Slide, and choose that layout you just created.
