Songs won't play for more than one slide still

[Krista]

It still won't work. If I start the show from the first slide the song starts on it will play the whole song but if I start from the very beginning it won't.

It helps if you keep your posts together and post followup information as a
reply in the original thread instead of starting a new one.

Anyway, I see that Tami pointed you to the FAQ about how to play sounds
across slides. I'll assume you read it and followed those steps.

So my question is, what's the difference between starting from the first
slide and starting from the beginning? (You said, "If I start the show from
the first slide...but if I start from the very beginning...." I don't
understand what you're getting at here, sorry.)

Please be more specific about the problem you're seeing, how you inserted
your sound file, the custom animation settings on the sound file, and what
version of PPT you're using.

Well the very first slide has a song for just that slide. Then the 2nd slide has no music. The 3rd slide has a new song that will play for 13 more slides. Well the music will play for the 3rd slide but not the other 13. And it's weird cause when I start the show at the 3rd slide it will play through all 13 slides but if I want to start the show from slide 1 it will play the 2nd song on slide 3 but it won't play for the other 13 slides. (I hope that make sence
I inserted it from play from CD audio (or something like that) And on custom animation it's start from previous and end after 13 slides. Does it make a difference that I'm at a different computer than from the one I added and created this presentation?

Ok, gotcha.

Try putting 999 in the "stop playing after XXX slides" instead of 13. I know
it sounds weird, but it really does work.

It shouldn't make a difference that you're on a different computer. Well, it
can, but it sounds as if you're set up properly (as far as that goes,
anyway) since the songs do play.
