Slides Not Advancing Automatically

Question

I've successfully completed multiple PowerPoint presentations with voice-over and converted to video using the technique referenced below, but this current one is not working.  I'm using PowerPoint 365 on Windows 10 and I'm current on software updates.

I'm recording voice-over individually on each slide using Insert > Audio.  I then use Slide Show > Rehearse Timings, to set the timing on each slide.  Transitions > Timing > Advance Slide > "On Mouse Click" is NOT checked and "After" IS checked.  The box next to After displays the recorded timing on the slide.  Set Up Slide Show > Show Type: I've tried both "Presented by a Speaker (Full Screen)" and "Browsed by a Kiosk (Full Screen)" with no positive result.  Set Up Slide Show > Advance Slides: "Using timings, if present" IS checked.

Here is what is happening:

1. When I start the show, the audio plays on the first slide but the slide does not advance per the set timing.  Clicking my mouse has no effect but wait about a minute and it will advance automatically.
2. Same thing on the second slide but it takes about 1.5 minutes to advance automatically.
3. Slides 3 thru 6 are all one slide in a manual presentation, opening with one graphic present on the slide and three additional graphics subsequently animated in, but to record voice individually with each animation, the slides have to be duplicated into four slides, each with a new graphic animated into the slide as they transition so with each new slide transition, there is a .5 sec delay, then the graphic animates onto the slide.
4. This is the odd part; the transitions and animations occur automatically as established by the slide timing but then when I get to slide 7, where there is no animation, I get the same failure to auto-advance.

I've scoured the web and found only one potentially significant post on BrainShark at https://brainshark.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003692912-Slides-Not-Automatically-Advancing, but cannot locate the tabs and menu items they reference so I can only assume they are referring to a different version of PP.

Any and all guidance would be appreciated.

Answer 1

It looks like you are not the original poster but are hijacking the thread. This will not get you an answer. Start a new thread and explain exactly what YOUR problem is.

Answer 2

Values are set consistent with timings established in the "Rehearse Timings" process.  I did make one change that caused the first slide to advance automatically to the second slide; slide #1 was set to advance on click, which should have been overridden by the use timings if present command, but when I changed the Animation setting to After Previous, it caused the slide to auto-advance, but slide #2 does not auto-advance and it was already set to With Previous.  This is really erratic behavior. 

I previously provided a link to the presentation in Google Drive.  Feel free to download and play with it, it's a presentation my company will use for sales so nothing confidential in it.

Answer 3

The link say "You need permission to download"

Here is a sharable link.  Sorry for the confusion, I thought the link above was sharable.
