Okay, well how do I get the music to play throughout the entire slide show instead of just through one slide?

I see the difference between my presentations ( which on transfer wont play the music ) and their presentation I THINK is the ending… i mean…mine is ppt..their is pps. or something like that . Might that help ?

Make sure if your saving the ppt on a USB or any other storage device to have the audio file stored along with the presentation. Otherwise, when it tries to look for the music file it won’t find it.

Click Custom Animation, then click effect options. It then, under the heading of Stop Playing, click After, then enter the slide number you want the song to stp on
TikiFury July 30th, 2010 at 1:04 pm
A little querry: can you control when this music stops?
i.e. if I want the music to stop at slide 5 can I do it?
And another one: can you add various song in the presentation?
i.e: from slide 1-5 song A, and from slide 6-7 song B and so on?
