HELP! Power point presentation I need tommorrow is totally messed up!

Postby Mangafanatic » Sun Dec 02, 2007 6:04 pm

Hey Guys,

So, I'm about to cry. This powerpoint that I've been working on ALL week is totally messed up. All I did was e-mail it to myself, and now when I click the forward button to advance to the next slide all my individually timed animations are advancing one after another without me clicking the button to make them move forward! Any idea on what's wrong! I REALLY need help. I don't know what I'm doing to do!
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

Hmmmm, is the office edition different from the two computers you have transfered it too? *Like on later and then one earlier edition?*

At worst I would guess that the animation did not register the timeline you have made. I can't think of any other way to redo things than to manualy fix it. Or you can try to transfer the file useing an USB pen. *If you check the animation section, then you will see if it has 'on click' or something else, which would explain if an error has occured.

I have noticed that some times errors do occur when transfering files with powerpoint. The main reason is at times that it does not neccicarily store everything into the powerpoint file such as music. However seing that this is animation, then the only thing I can think off that will bug the process is that two different versions of office where used.
