• Fixes the following issues:
  
  • Assume that you add the Align Selected Objects command and the Align to Slide command to the quick access toolbar in PowerPoint 2013. When you select two or more objects, the alignment status on the quick access toolbar may differ from the current settings.
    
  • Assume that you open a PowerPoint presentation that contains one or more <emma:one-of> elements in PowerPoint Web App. When you save the presentation, the <emma:one-of> elements are lost.
    
  • Consider the following scenario:
    
    • You create a new presentation in PowerPoint 2013.
    • You insert a video that contains the link to the video, for example, by clicking Insert -> Video -> Video on My PC, selecting a video, clicking the drop-down arrow on the right side of the Insert button, and then clicking Link to File.
    • You break the link of the video, for example, by clicking File -> Info -> View Links -> Break Link, and then clicking Close.
    • You go back to the presentation and undo the break link operation.
    In this scenario, you may experience the following issues:
    
    • You cannot change the source of the video, for example, by clicking File -> Info -> View Links -> Change Source, selecting a new video, and then clicking Open.
    • The View Links link is still enabled even after you break the link again, for example, by clicking File -> Info -> View Links -> Break Link, and then clicking Close. Additionally, the second break link operation does not appear in the undo history.
    
    
  • You cannot undo or redo the operations in the Outline view of a PowerPoint 2013 presentation.
    
  • When you edit a text box in a PowerPoint 2013 presentation and the default tab stops on the ruler are set to 0" apart, PowerPoint may crash.
    
  • When you insert a photo taken on a smartphone, tablet, or digital camera into Word, Excel, or PowerPoint 2013, although the photo will appear in the correct orientation in the insert dialog on Windows 8 or 8.1, the photo may appear in the wrong orientation in the document.
    
    Note To resolve this issue, you must also have update KB2956085 for Word 2013, update KB2920753 for Excel 2013, and update KB2889846 for Office 2013 installed.
