I am trying to insert music and have different animations follow it. I have
successfully put one file in and it has worked fine (ie music come on, then
text with animation, slide transisions fine all within a couple of seconds).
But if I use a new piece of music (same file type, ripped and inserted the
same way) the animations won't start until the music is completely over (and
one bit is six minutes long). I really need some help.

Click Slide Show > Custom Animation. Double click on the play effect.
Set it to Start playing from last position.
Does it work this time round?
