i have created a presentation on pc and im now trying to play it on a mac.
The sounds files are in the same folder as the pp presentation but not all of
them play. Is there an easy way of mending the links or do i have to insert
all the sounds that dont work again???

Hi Cheryl,

I've ran into this problem myself. Some sound files that play fine on a PC
won't play on a MAC. Have you tried playing the sound files on the MAC
independent of the slideshow?

Thank you for your reply. Yes the sound files play fine on the mac when i
play them not in the presentation, they just dont work within the
presentation. Any suggestions why this is happening and what to do to fix it?
