Hi, i'm trying to do a powerpoint presentation, and have the slides move through automatically. I know how do this, (slide transition, automatically after x number of seconds), but for some reason its not working. Any computer wizzkids out there who have any idea why its not working?

    Go into slide transition
    click "automitcally after x seconds
    Untick "on mouse click"

    i just tried it and worked fine on my pc here

    Maybe its having a funny 5 mins restart it and try again?

    Can't think what could cause it, You got custom animations / videos / sounds maybe causing it to mess up?

    nah no cutom things, i know it should work as it usually does. the only thing i can think of is that it was sent as an email in .pps format and i've changed it into .ppt format so i can edit it. do you know if that would cause it?

    Try creating a fresh powerpoint with 2-3 slides just to check there's nothing else going on. if it works you know its something with the presentation your working on.

    Wouldn't have thought changing into .ppt would cause it.

    If all fails, create a new presentation and copy & paste over the content.
