how do i make music last through my powerpoint?

Question

i am making a christmas powerpoint and would like music to last until the end.

i have a song already on, but it stops when i start the next slide. i also want to have the slides to go on auto without me having to click. can anyone help? thank you.

Answer 1

you can right click on the song that you import to your power point, and then you go to the option tab og your song and I forget from there because it has been a long time i'm not using Power Point anymore. but I think it's not that hard to find. and then to make your slide go by itself you can go to the animation and then right click on the animation that you've been pick and change it to "after previous" and do that to all the animation you have put into it....that what i remember, I'll try to find Power Point again so I can remember it well,...

good luck

Answer 2

when adding the song, in the same menu there is an option of playing the sound across slides....

You are also looking for the transistion settings where you can set the time in sec between the slides...

It all in the menus, so play!

you may no longer do it quite, yet once you have the time you may split the song into guy or woman sections for each slide ( applying an modifying application like Audacity ) and time the slide transitions so that they link up.
