Hello, I am creating a presentation with PowerPoint but the problem is that when I add multiple songs, they all start playing at the same time.
How can I make them play one after the other?

Thank you in advance

Configuration: Windows 7 / Firefox 3.6

Hello,

Managing sound with PowerPoint is quite tricky. To handle it easily, it must be in WAV format and to insert it into a slideshow with PowerPoint 2007, you need to go through the Animations tab/Animation Pane/Transition Sound/select Other Sound to access the file, and so on for all the sounds on the same slide or on different slides.

When you want to put multiple sounds on the same slide, you will need to synchronize them through the Animation Pane/Custom Animation/Add Effect to manage the start time of playback, playback duration, etc., for each sound.

Be careful not to click on Apply to All, as this will apply the same settings to all slides and cause the sound to start on each slide.

In fact, it's MP3 music that I want to insert on all the slides, and I'm using PowerPoint 2010 beta.
