I inserted music clips into my power point from Microsoft Online. The music
will play when I run the powerpoint on my own computer, but if I save it to
my flash drive and try to run it on another computer, the music will not
play. What am I doing wrong? Help!!!!

Create a folder.
Place the music and your presentation in the folder.
Re-link your music
When you transfer to your Flash Drive, drag the entire folder to keep the
link.

So do I have to take the music out and put it back in again? Then how do I
"drag" -the folder to the flash drive? Thanks so much for your help!

There are many reason that powerpoint presentation can't run in other
pc such as the powerpoint version is differ,operating system is
differ,machine configure is differ etc.these differ may be result in
your presentation can't run in others pc.
May be you can try to convert the powerpoint to flash,there is a tools
can realize this conversion and you can setting and simple edit the
music (such as fade in/out effect),after convert,It will not appear the
error you mentioned.
