going back to slide #1 when idle
I put together PowerPoint .pps slideshows for my pastor's sermons. I prepare
them on my home PC and show them on the church's PC (which also has the full PowerPoint loaded) However, if he gets a bit long winded all of a sudden the pps goes back to slide #1 - which I don't want it to - so then I have to "fast forward" to the slide it should have been staying on. It does not do this at home and the only solution I've found so far is the move the mouse every minute or so to keep it from reaching that "idle time - return to slide #1". I'm guessing there is a setting in the pps or in PowerPoint itself that says "do or don't go back to slide #1 if idle for X number of seconds" Help!!!! |

Jay,
Have you set the presentation to Kiosk mode (slideshow menu set up show)... "A self-running presentation restarts when it has finished and also when it has been idle on a manually advanced slide for longer than five minutes." If you set it to "browsed by a speaker"...then it will not re-start without you telling it to.
