All of the animation on my slide has occurred, including the music file, I
even have the slide timed, but it will not move on. I have 30 slides in this
presentaion and I'm having trouble with just this one...thanks for any help
you can provide.

Set the sound to stop playing after XX slides. (Usually 999, if it's
background music.) See

Play sounds across multiple slides (A WAV runs through it)

Thanks for the feedback Echo but I had already done that.

Hi

If you set the music as echo suggests you may find the slide moves on BEFORE
the music stops. If the music has truly finished it shouldnt stop the slide
transition.

Obvious question are you sure you have "automatically after 0 secs ticked"?
what are the stop settings/ repeat settings for the music?
What other animations are there?

If all else fails send me the slide if its not confidential and I'll have a
look.

Did that answer the question / help?

Hi John -The music file was just a filler that would play through the next 3
slides which I had set it to do. I have gotten it fixed and what I ended up
doing is changing all of the animation to start with prevous. I didn't have
to do this on any of the other slides but it is what I had to do on this one
to get it to go. Not sure I learn anything -it was just a quirk...Thanks for
your feedback
