PoweRPoint 2010 - Play audio on one slide without affecting other animations


I have a slide with several animations of pictures. I also have audio on this slide, which I would like to begin as soon as the slide starts, and continue until all the animations are finished, but I do not want the audio on the next slide. I have selected "Effect Options" - "Stop playing after 1 slide". Works perfectly - audio comes in with the slide, and plays through all the picture animations. However, if I save the presentation, when I re-open it, the "Effect Options" has reverted back to "After current slide". Then the first picture comes in with the sound, but none of the other animations follow. I just want it to save and then re-open with "Stop playing after 1 slide". Has anybody else had this problem, and/or does anybody have a solution? Thanks.

Nick124 		Yeah, my best guess would be that you are using a computer which does not allow you to save settings in programs. If it is a personal computer, make sure you have administrative rights and check the settings in PowerPoint to see if there are any restrictions placed.

nicola1 		That works fine for me. Are you using a public computer? It could be that the settings are not changeable. If you found the solution, can you post it? I apologize for the delay in responding but if you still have not found the answer let me know and I will dig deeper. Thanks

Thank you for your answer. No - haven't found a proper solution yet - could be I'm on a network computer, but I really don't know why that would make a difference. I did "fool" the programme, though. I inserted the audio on the previous slide, to start playing at the very end, "on click", so it actually starts playing when I clock for the next slide.. I then selected "stop playing after 2 slides", and, for some reason, I ended up with exactly what I wanted. There's always a way!!!
