I made a presentation, I tried sending it to a friend over msn, but he says
that he can only see pictures, whereas the presentation is a slide shower
with music and effects.
How can I package the presentation into one file?

Only pictures? How did you save the presentation?
Click File > Save as. Under Save As Type, select presentation or powerpoint
show.
After saving, check the output file to see if you are able to view the
presentation before sending it to him.
Does that work?

I am assuming that the music files are other than WAV files. If so, they
have to be sent along also as WAV files are the only music files that get
embedded into PowerPoint depending on their size. The easiest way is to ZIP
all the files and the send the ZIP file

If the post made by Michael is what you want, the safest way is to put both
the music and ppt in one folder. Then re-insert the music.
Next, zip the folder using WinZip( www.winzip.com ).
When extracting, be sure to extract the folder first instead of running the
presentation from the zipped file.

Alternately, if you are using wav file, you can embed it. Check this article

Hi, well thank you for your help, but I actually found out just after posting
this that it is very simple: Click on "package for cd" then in that window
click on "save to folder" and then the folder with ppt viewer and all correct
files is made and i zipped that up and it works.
Thank you for your help anyway,
