Are you opening your presentation in the PowerPoint Viewer? Try right-
clicking on your presentation and choose Open With and pick PowerPoint, or
try opening PowerPoint and going to the File menu and choosing Open to open
your presentation.

Do you have the full version of PowerPoint? If so which version? Or, are you
trying to edit the presentation with the PowerPoint Viewer?

Do you see any message when you open the file? This can happen if the file is
password protected against editing, if the file has embedded fonts of certain
types or if your copy of PPT hasn't been activated and has timed out.
