To start a presentation from the current slide:
- in PowerPoint 2003 or later, press Shift+F5
- in PowerPoint X/Macintosh, press Control+Shift+B
To start a presentation from the beginning:
- in PowerPoint for Windows, press F5
- in PowerPoint X/Mac, press Control+Shift+S

Mine is Microsoft Powerpoint 2002 and Shift+F5 is not working in it :( – Anto Varghese Aug 29 '10 at 11:07

I installed 2007 and now it is working. – Anto Varghese Aug 31 '10 at 04:03

I have a multi-monitor Windows setup, and F5 and/or Shift+F5 both launch as one monitor with presentation, but also with one with presenter view. How do you just show the presentation without the presenter view? – J-Dizzle Jul 09 '15 at 18:13

ALT, W, D does show Reading View though. This somewhat solves my question above :) – J-Dizzle Jul 09 '15 at 18:14

And how can you jump to the next page without going through all the animations? – skan Sep 19 '15 at 17:20
