I have a presentation that is getting "stuck" and not moving forward. I have deleted and re-created the slide that is having the issue after readying similar posts (removed the slide and it worked without it). Not only did I lose my audio but it is still getting stuck (now one slide further ahead). I cannot pinpoint what animation might be making the presentation stall. Does anyone have any advice on which animations to use/avoid? Thoughts on what animations might be triggering the stopping point?
First, can you confirm that your project files are all local project files? Working on a network or USB drive can cause erratic behavior within Presenter 13. You'll also want to test the published output within the intended environment. I haven't heard of particular animations causing Presenter to stall during publish/preview but this is a list of all supported Powerpoint animations.
Thanks for your suggestions. The files are located locally on my C: drive. I finally found out that the player controls were set to "on click" for the slides that were stalling rather than "automatically." This resolved the issue.

If you'd like to share your Presenter file with us here we'd be happy to check it out, and if you'd prefer to share it privately you can send it to us here.
Hello-
Thanks for your suggestions. The files are located locally on my C: drive. I finally found out that the player controls were set to "on click" for the slides that were stalling rather than "automatically." This resolved the issue.
Thanks again!
